Blackstone Code

Chapter 1704: prohibition

After returning from Sierra, Lynch didn't pay much attention to their affairs, he thought they were just playing around.

Maybe some people are really bored, maybe some people want to use this opportunity to stir up heat for their partners, maybe some people are just like Sierra.

But anyway, he didn't think it would be a big deal.

It's just that he slightly underestimated the thoughts of those women. For most people, opening a factory is a very serious matter.

But for these extremely bored women, it turned into a fun social event.

It was soon joined by more ladies who turned it into a new fashionable act.

These days, if ladies don't open a factory, they don't seem to be ladies!

Lynch also went to see the women and children left by Nell during this time.

They were all healthy, and they were a little afraid of Lynch, so Lynch left without staying.

They have already begun to adapt to the life of the Federation, perhaps this is the process of entering a life of luxury and affluence from a simple, backward and difficult life—it hardly has a process!

Work is tiring and hard work, but whoever can lie in bed and sleep until he wakes up naturally!

As long as you don't go hungry!

Everyone is changing!

The Federation is here and it's not going to change for anyone, only people get used to it!

The first piece of good news after the beginning of summer is that a team opened by the Flight Research Institute has made a breakthrough in the joint research project with Ankerk Industry.

The tank design of Peng Jieo is obviously not as reasonable as the design of the Federation. Their design looks like the type that opens and closes.

Although the turret has an angle, this angle is relatively less likely to allow the shell to jump away.

The tanks they are currently serving actually have nothing special about them, except that the steel plates are thick enough.

This allows the designers of the Flight Research Institute and Ankirk to become more targeted in their research.

They designed a very special armor-piercing projectile, which uses a very special pointed projectile structure, and the projectile uses a special alloy, which is also the main direction of research and development.

The reason is actually very simple, as long as the metal hardness of the warhead is higher than that of the armor, it can tear the armor with enough kinetic energy.

In fact, it is not too difficult to study this thing. It is constantly designing the alloy formula of the tip of the warhead and designing a more aerodynamic shell coat.

In order for it to effectively achieve the purpose of armor piercing, it must maintain sufficient kinetic energy. On the premise of not changing the caliber of the currently active tanks, it has more terrifying destructive power. Wind resistance is the key.

Following the results of laboratory and live-fire tests, Ankirk Industries contacted the Department of Defense immediately.

Now that the front line is tight, everyone is not too worried about air combat. The main problem is the confrontation of ground mechanized troops.

Peng Jieao's tank has too many advantages, although it cannot climb big slopes, although it is too heavy, it has strict requirements on the terrain.

But can't resist it's hard enough!

There is no good way to deal with this kind of tank that can't be broken by several shots. They can only solve it by throwing incendiary bombs at close range.

The incendiary bomb of the Flight Research Institute has a fast reaction speed and high temperature. Although it cannot directly kill the people in the tank, it can turn the tank into a small oven.

This is the more effective way at present.

In addition, destroying the track, or good luck, is also a way.

But people hope that there is a direct and simple way to deal with this enemy.

Lynch also participated in this test firing, and Mr. Wardrick invited him just in case something happened.

"You seem to have lost a lot of weight recently." After Lynch and Mr. Wardrick shook hands, the two stood aside.

Physically, Mr. Warderick used to be just a little muscular, but not fat or bloated.

Now he's completely lost weight, but on the contrary... not very good-looking.

After a man reaches middle age, he is actually too thin and ugly, like a skeleton, and can't give people any sense of threat.

Mr. Wardrick sighed with a smile, "I can't help it. I haven't been able to sleep well or eat well. Now I can only count on this. I rarely even go home."

That's an exaggeration, but it's true that he doesn't rest well.

Now Ankerk Industry is truly his industry, and there may be other people's shares in it, but in the final analysis, he has the final say here.

He put his heart and soul into it, and he wanted to make Ankirk a family business so that it could be passed on from generation to generation.

At the point where Mr. Warderick is, what he thinks about is no longer how he will live in the future, but the life of his children, his descendants, and those who are further away.

It was precisely because he didn't want Severilla to be besieged in the consortium that he worked so hard, otherwise he didn't need to do it at all.

In fact, Mr. Wardrick still regretted a little at this time. He regretted that he only had one daughter, and he should have two or three more children.

He doesn't think Severella is not good enough, but hopes that these children can help each other.

It's really hard for a person!

During this period of time, he has experienced very well that everything needs to be carried by himself. If someone can share some of it for him, at least he will not become so thin.

But it doesn't make any sense to say that.

With the arrival of people from the Ministry of Defense and the military, the test firing began.

The test firing this time is mainly divided into two parts. The first part is the test firing of the cannon-based armor-piercing projectile. The target is bombarded from three points at close range, medium distance and long distance to test the armor-piercing ability of the shell.

The second part is the test firing of tanks. There are not many kinds of distances. Tanks basically shoot at close range.

Both Mr. Lynch and Mr. Wardrick put on earmuffs, and as the artillery began to roar, the effect of the armor-piercing shells was very obvious.

As long as it doesn't jump away, it is very lethal to Peng Jieao's tanks.

The test firing effect of the tank is also very good, this kind of thing cannot be faked.

The Ministry of National Defense and the military discussed it, and immediately gave Ankerk Industry a big order.

They placed an order of 100 million in one go!

Based on the current price of 398 yuan and 99 cents per shell, this is more than 200,000 shells!

This also made Mr. Wardrick very excited. In fact, he originally intended to price it at a little more than three hundred yuan.

In fact, this price already guaranteed enough profit, but Lynch directly added dozens of dollars to him to make the profit even bigger.

For the current federation, money is not a problem at all, the problem is whether they have what they need.

Doesn't the military, the Department of Defense, know that Lynch's planes are **** ridiculously expensive?

Apparently they knew that Penteo was making planes that cost less than a quarter of Lynch's, but so what?

Blackstone Aviation is fully ahead in flight technology, which is no longer something that can be bought with money!

If His Majesty the Emperor of Penteo was given a chance, he would also choose to buy Lynch's plane.

This is not a question of money, but a question of whether the strategy and tactics can be completed!

Civilian scientists can build an airplane for thousands of dollars, but is that kind of airplane meaningful?

Now the federal military is able to fight back and forth under the pressure of the Penteio military group, not because of how good the federal army is.

They can fight like this, thanks to the air force belt!

This also allowed Mr. Wardrick to see Lynch's ability. Not only did he dare to think, but he dared to speak!

Even Mr. Wardrick, a big capitalist, cried when he heard it, his heart is too **** dark!

A large number of assembly lines in the Ankerk factory started production. A week later, a steady stream of armor-piercing bullets were sent to the front line, and the effect was unanimously praised...

In July, the Federal Congress suddenly passed a very special proposal.

From 23:59:59 on July 31st, that is, at 0:00 on August 1st, the Federation will fully implement the prohibition on alcohol!

The reason why Congress passed such a decision that seemed like a dog's brain came up with the key is that the federal food is not enough.

In the past 20 years, the population of the Federation has grown from less than 40 million to more than 60 million now, and it is still increasing.

However, the area of ​​arable land and the number of registered pastures in the Federation, as well as the number of unmarketed livestock, did not increase in the same proportion.

Even the number of people engaged in agriculture has decreased significantly, which has caused the federal agricultural output to be unable to meet the market demand of the domestic population surge.

Therefore, the Federation has been importing food all along, from the member countries of the World Development Council and from Nagalil.

Nagalil has solved the food shortage of the Federation very well, but because of the war, half of Nagalil has now fallen, and the spread and continuation of the war has led to a low cultivation rate this spring.

This also means that the food supply of the Federation is very tight.

But brewing requires a lot of food.

When there was no shortage of food in the past, the winery could open up to make wine.

But now there is not enough food, and if winemaking is opened up, it will obviously further reduce the proportion of food used to maintain life.

After a brief discussion, Congress quickly passed the proposal, and all wineries in the federal territory were completely shut down.

Local police~lightnovelpub.net~FBI has the right to seal up wineries produced during the implementation of the Prohibition, and arrest relevant producers and business owners!

Of course, there is not much interference in the sales of drinks that have been produced so far.

However, starting from August 1st, an "alcoholic beverage business license" is required for the sale of alcoholic beverages. Bars without this license are not allowed to sell any alcoholic beverages.

This certificate is very difficult to obtain. Each city varies from a few to dozens of certificates according to the size of the city.

As soon as this bill came out, the entire federation was at a loss. How could the war be fought well, and they suddenly stopped drinking?

People didn't understand it, and there were demonstrations. Mr. Truman even delivered a national speech on TV. He mentioned the reality of the severe food shortage and hoped everyone could understand it.

And he promised that once the war is over, the "Prohibition" will be lifted immediately, and the production and sales of alcoholic products will resume...
