In the 11th year of equilibrium, New Year’s fireworks light up the night sky on Recovery Day.

People from all over the city gathered to worship the true God, the Lord of Balance, and listen to His oracles, teachings, blessings and grace.

Zhou Li'an didn't do anything fancy.

The New Year's fireworks on Recovery Day will become a balanced tradition.

What is tradition?

It takes time to settle and ferment.

The cities have been peaceful for more than half a year, and more than 300,000 New Balance people have witnessed this miracle for the first time...

Of course, the people already have the origin of the law monk Mingxiao Fireworks.

First of all, of course, it is given by the gods, and then after exploring its principles, the secret volume of the "Chemical Laws" in the Temple Mount has already shown the creation -

"My lord, is this a derivative of gunpowder?"

Niu Shi and a group of students gathered around Zhou Li'an to ask for advice.

One of the four great inventions of the ancient oriental countries.

Gunpowder is not a derivative of fireworks and firecrackers. It was first discovered for blasting furnaces in alchemy. Later it quickly became used in celebrations and was made into medicine-haired puppets by circuses.

Firearms began to be developed at the end of the Tang Dynasty and the beginning of the Song Dynasty. It is not that the technological tree has grown crooked.

Qi Jiguang of the Ming Dynasty also focused on firearms, and his technological level was about the same as that of the West.

There was also Nicolas Zhiron, who bombarded the Dutch fleet and swept across the Southeast Asia.

By the end of the Ming Dynasty, the great country was about to collapse, the climax of the Little Ice Age was coming, natural disasters were happening, and there were traitorous civilian officials and man-made disasters, so how could anyone bother to engage in science and technology?

When the Qing Dynasty came to rule the Han people, there was constant opposition, and banning firearms became a key point. The Qing army also had firearms camps, but the historical evolution of the feudal dynasty was similar, and the body structure and system were bloated...

The Eight Banners disciples are becoming more and more extravagant. They claim that their ancestors conquered the world on horseback. Even the Ming Dynasty had firearms and was unable to defeat them. Their development was completely weak.

Zhou Li'an thought of this and glanced at the Temple Mount.

The country is founded by balancing scientific laws, and the divine power is bound to science. This is really the wisest decision.

"Yes, derivatives! Once you wait for the laws of physics and chemistry to break through to a higher level, you can use gunpowder to create bombs. This kind of fireworks is just a trail."

One sulfur, two nitrates, three charcoal, and some sugar.

North America is rich in sulfur ore reserves. Not to mention charcoal, white sugar mainly relies on corn syrup to refine...

However, South America is already planning a journey. In the future, Brazil's cane sugar production will account for more than 20% of the world's sugar, and now it will all be owned in a balanced manner.

Saltpeter, that's all.

Before the advent of synthetic nitrate, it was also an important strategic material that could be made into gunpowder. It was also an important agricultural resource and could be used as fertilizer.

Before the discovery of saltpeter mines in modern Western Xinjiang, there was only one country producing natural saltpeter, Chile.

Therefore, at the end of the 19th century, the South American Pacific War began, with Chile, Bolivia, and Peru fighting for saltpeter resources.

In the same way, the existing saltpeter mines will be owned by Equilibrium.

Before the development of maritime transportation, nitrate could be synthesized and used. After the development of maritime transportation, the cost of transporting it by ship from Chile was even lower.

Except for saltpeter, Chile's copper reserves rank first in the world, and other minerals are equally abundant.

South America is a rich treasure house of industrial resources.

…

Recovery Day New Year passed.

The Kinkou Military Academy was established under the Temple Mount. Heads of departments such as those who climbed the mountain early in the morning had already started construction. Now they are expanding their scale and confirming the same status as the academies in various cities.

The main enrollment group is the generals of the Knights. Niu Shi and his students are used as teachers. They first popularize the laws of the language and then study military strategies together.

It may not have much effect in the early stage, but in the future it will become a palace of balanced military talents.

The Military Academy was established.

Zhou Li'an also wants to put the development of the map of Central and South America on the agenda.

Central America is not large in area, and is mainly the Mexican region, extending all the way to the narrow corridor from Panama to South America.

The exploration of Cuba, Dominica and the Caribbean islands in the Gulf of Mexico is on hold, the indigenous population is sparse, and the equilibrium has not yet planned to develop navigation, and there will be no delay in restoring equilibrium in the end.

When you arrive in Panama, you can stop.

The territory of South America is huge, so it is better to wait until China and the United States complete the reunification before continuing downwards.

Because the Aztec Alliance alone has a population of about 15 million, this data is simulated from the heyday of the Aztecs.

Now, in the early 15th century, the population may have been greatly reduced.

If you want to develop in a balanced way, you must proceed step by step. One bite cannot make you fat. With the influx of more than 10 million people, city-state construction and daily necessities must keep up with the pace, otherwise the building will collapse.

Nowadays, it is unrealistic to feed more than 10 million people in a balanced time and space with the resources of this world.

The daily rations consumed are astronomical.

Therefore, Zhou Li'an must be cautious and build this glorious and supreme divine kingdom step by step.

Once China and the United States are in their pockets, they will have city-states to rely on to facilitate continued conquest and unification.

I have an outline in my mind.

Zhou Li'an returned to the present world without accelerating.

As per the old rules, order the "Idol of My Lord True God" on a large scale.

Quetzalcoatl can take a break.

Our Lord, Balance, will come to Central and South America and bestow enlightenment and blessings on millions of people.

In addition, salt is still a hard currency, even though the Aztec civilization was at its peak, the gods were rich in lineage, and the salt-making method became mature after thousands of years of evolution.

But the salt they made was still bitter.

The salt produced in this world can be regarded as a treasure.

Arrive in Juarez.

A group of tool people gathered together. It was already September in this world, and the mergers and acquisitions of various companies by the Balance Group had long been completed and were on the right track.

The integration of mining engineering machinery and power generation equipment industries, as well as two pharmaceutical companies, and the merger of many factories and workshops owned by Zhou Li'an can satisfy the budding industrial development of balanced time and space.

Barbara said: "Boss, the vaccine production workshop has been put into operation, and the annual output can reach 30 million doses."

The workshop scale design was approved by Zhou Li'an.

If the output is too high, it will cause resource overflow. In the future, the equilibrium will be to develop its own medical technology.

Even if the output is too low, time will accelerate and the time flow rate between the present world and the equilibrium space-time will not be equal.

Zhou Li'an doesn't want to waste time waiting for the vaccine to be produced.

Last question...

"The group's liquidity is insufficient. The gold proceeds are used to acquire various companies. The investment in vaccine production lines is also a huge amount of funds."

"Moreover, the personal financial records you entrusted to me show that you made a charitable donation of up to 100 million U.S. dollars in the past few months? Later, there were many donation records of tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, and millions...

"

As soon as these words came out.

The group of people were completely confused, and everyone gasped.

100 million charitable donations? This is 100 million!!

Not to mention the many small donations that followed?

Zhou Li'an was also stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that system usage deductions were classified as charitable donations.

100 million dollars, a few months ago...

Oh, that was the cost of extra horses in the middle of the expedition.

Subsequent use of [Eye of the Void], [True Body Dharma] and Creation [Academic Center] resulted in numerous scattered bills.

Combined with the mergers and acquisitions of several companies, the capital chain does appear to be tight.

Zhou Li'an relies on gold as his source of funds, and invests all proceeds into the group's subsequent industry development.

This is not to say that Cayero did not pay a penny. He held 20% of the shares and invested a small amount. The large profits from the gold sales were still pocketed in his own pocket. With the help of the Equilibrium Group, he completed many lizard money operations. Rich

Gotta shed oil.

Officials do not mention it. The initial share capital was based on the issuance of mining rights and licenses. Subsequent mergers and acquisitions were also directly merged with several half-dead factories.

The only person who really contributed the money was Zhou Li'an.

Therefore, the Balance Group has attracted much attention from the government since its establishment. It has been making great moves, acquiring various industries, providing employment and tax revenue.

Such an enterprise that serves the country and the people makes men cry silently and women cry.

In the eyes of Cayero and Juan...
