Tian Heng's second-story office building in the Binhai District of Qi State. In Qi State, the two-story building has become a status symbol, and the former style of the huge courtyard has begun to decline.

"Goguryeo?" Tian Heng asked strangely.

"Yes, Goguryeo people, they are here to buy arms and supplies, but they seem to have something to discuss with us. I am worried." Lou Jing said worriedly.

"What are you worried about?" Tian Heng asked at this time.

"I've visited before. They collected a lot of newspapers. From the newspapers, they got the situation of Qin State on the battlefield of Liaodong. Qin State reporters reported the war process in detail in the newspaper. Basically, this time The war is almost exposed." Lou Jing said to Tian Heng. For such reports. Lou Jing thought it was too much.

"What do they want to do?" Tian Heng asked at this time. He feels that Goguryeo's situation is a bit wrong.

"My guess is that the Goguryeo people need us to adjust, or that they may need to let us do something for them." Lou Jing hinted.

"Well, do you make it clearer?" Tian Heng asked.

"I am worried that the current occupation of Liaodong is very detrimental to the people of Goguryeo. The recent newspaper reported such a news that the air force of the Qin State ignited the forests of Liaodong on a large scale. Under such circumstances, the Goguryeo people are bound to retreat. However, the Qin army cut off the retreat of the Goguryeo people from the flank. I think that the Goguryeo people may have no way. They want to seek our help to persuade this war to at least save their large number of soldiers. "Lou Jing guessed.

"Yeah." Tian Heng nodded. He also quickly pondered this matter in his mind for this possibility. Tian Heng thinks the possibility is very high.

"If this happens, what do you think?" Tian Heng asked.

"If something like this really happens. Unless Qi State has great potential for development, we, Qi State, absolutely cannot agree." Lou Jing persuaded.

"Yeah." Tian Heng nodded.

"I read the newspaper and said that Yan, Zhao, South Korea, and the banks invested by the people of Qin State, this time they hit Liaodong, mainly for iron ore. Coal, Zhao Guo, and it can be done with only one railway. This way. , The mining of iron ore will be greatly accelerated. Iron smelting is also very mature." Tian Heng said with some worry.

"In Qi, there is no such a large iron ore mining area. Not only that, but coal has not been excavated. Although we have looked for a lot of Qin prospecting experts and spent a lot of money, there is really no coal. See how much. In the foreseeable future, the demand for iron ore and steel will inevitably increase. Even the development of Qi will require a lot of steel. We can't always rely on imports, right?" Tian Heng said embarrassedly.

"Yeah. It's true." Lou Jing nodded.

"If these minerals can be found in areas controlled by the Goguryeos, the place occupied by the Qi and Goguryeos will be very convenient." Tian Heng said.

"Our shipyard is building large ships, and the ability to transport goods is rapidly increasing. With the sea, it is much more convenient than the railway." Tian Heng saw this in the longer term.

"In this case, do we really want to do this about the Goguryeo people?" Lou Jing asked.

"Yeah. Of course." Tian Heng nodded and admitted.

"If a large amount of iron ore is found, it must be done." Tian Heng said.

It's on the shore of the Marina District. The Koreans are doing a whole new kind of experiment.

"What are these ropes for?" the captain Zhang Dahu asked inexplicably. Because his ship was requisitioned. Although the daily reward is very good. But he still felt that it would be better to go to Nanyang to make a fortune. Although the risks are high, it is far not as safe as being here, but the risk awareness in his bones is still relatively strong.

"What ropes? These are cables. They are telegraph lines." Han Youcai explained. He is the executor of this project. He is a college student and a researcher. His teacher comes from this major of Qin Guo University.

"We need to lay cables under the sea. In this way, we can receive telegrams overseas, much faster." Han Youcai introduced excitedly.

"Oh, that's great. In this case, it's too useful." Zhang Dahu said with a smile.

"Our ships don't have to worry about communication problems." Zhang Dahu clearly understood it wrong.

"This is not enough. If you follow your sailing method, you should lay more cables on your ships. This is not enough." Han Youcai explained.

"At present, this project has only just been launched. We are only in the experimental stage. If we do well, we can lay a larger cable. This is called. Yes, the submarine cable." Han Youcai explained excitedly.

"Well. I don't know what a submarine cable is. But I know that you are all capable people in this area. What you do is what we need most." Zhang Dahu said.

"Thank you. I am embarrassed to say something." Han Youcai said with a smile. As he spoke, he began to direct his people to erect cables. They first have to test a short distance. This distance is only the distance from a nearby island to the coastal area, and the erection distance is about 30 miles. The distance is not far, but it makes a lot of sense. Because this is the first time that South Korea has laid a submarine cable. If feasible, they have to lay submarine cables on a large scale, so that they can quickly conduct research in this area. And shortened the various islands, strengthened the connection between Southeast Asia. It can be said that this is a very strategic technology, which will bring revolutionary development prospects to South Korea.

In this regard, Han Youcai is very confident and very proud. This project has been favored by Han Shu, and special support is given in terms of capital and personnel transfer. And in terms of material resources, unprecedented support. In order to manufacture these cables, they also imported professional equipment from Qin State and provided special training for personnel. For this reason, more Korean companies participated in the process to process this kind of cables. Cable copper wire. You must know that the price of copper is not cheap. If it is a normal project, they will not get so much financial support at all. But now, everything is in progress, this is a very important project, this technology is very important to South Korea. It is also an item of particular concern to the Queen.
