Fang Zhide transported the firearms production line to Nanchang a few years ago, but there were too many trivial matters, and Xu Jingchang couldn't spare his hands to study. This is the case with its own weak R&D capabilities, and with a production line, it has to be made. When later generations of Huaxia were catching up, they didn't know how much they suffered in the core technology. The introduction of high-tech machines, the machines are specially sent to operate, and no one is allowed to look at them. Layers of technical barriers have been overwhelmed in the international market. Even a small ballpoint refill can't be done, so I have to OEM, and the profit of a pen is calculated in cents. In addition to the well-known history of 100 years of humiliation, the industrial history of those decades is also extremely humiliating. It took more than 30 years to raise his eyebrows, and he was finally able to throw the past Europeans and Americans back on their faces.

At this time, he didn't even have the opportunity to endure hardships. It is the limit that foreigners can get a production line, and technicians will not come inland at all, and there is no chance of countering and buying stealing teachers. A production line, full of foreign words, can't be understood when you get it in your hand. In particular, the production line of foreigners has used a large number of steam engines since the seventeenth century, and now they are afraid that they have accumulated the technology of internal combustion engines, while the common Chinese technicians have never even seen a steam engine.

Fortunately, there were drawings along with the production line, Xu Jingchang looked at it a little before, but he was really short of energy and put it down. Now Mu Dagong has arrived in Nanchang with a large group of technicians, and he can finally try the dressing production line. Wait until the firearms are thoroughly consumed, and then import civilian ones, such as steam spinning machines. If we don't mention the low-cost sale of cotton cloth, at least we can save a lot of money on military needs. Science and technology are the primary productive forces, at least for centuries, and this is the absolute truth.

The girls had their own things, Ting Fang was assigned to stop, and walked to the front alone, and saw Mu Dagong in the hall with a miserable face, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Fang Zhide smiled: "Seasickness." ”

Xu Jingchang was busy settling them to rest, and waiting for them to calm down before talking. After tossing for a while, he had to ask Fang Zhide again: "What is the situation in East Lake?" ”

Fang Zhide sighed and said: "The upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, the prince sent several people to take charge of the East Lake garrison, and immediately put away the tolls. The county lord is not here, and Mr. Ren has no grade, so he can't control them. The business has lost a lot, and the focus will have to go to Jiangxi if the focus is not to Jiangxi in the future. According to me, the garrison in the valley was also quietly transported, and the province was extraordinarily branched. ”

Xu Jingchang was a little stunned: "Are you going to give up East Lake after all?" ”

Fang Zhide sighed again: "It is really much more convenient for East Lake to go to sea than Nanchang. ”

"East Lake is far inferior to Songjiang." Ting Fang said a little depressedly, "Liu Yongnian is only afraid that he has already controlled Songjiang, right?" ”

Fang Zhide said: "The county lord has a high opinion of him, but his goods have gone from East Lake a lot." ”

"Huh?"

Fang Zhide said: "Everyone in Songjiang is watching, and now the prince is in charge, and the port is being repaired." Then there is Quanzhou, but it is a holy person. You don't know that the coast is a mess. I think that now Guangzhou is still stable, the old port, and they all know how to make money, but it is not easy to divide it all by staring at it. His Royal Highness once listed which places are suitable for building ports, and all the robberies are like what, and the civil and military nobles are all caught in the head, and I can't see exactly what kind of judgment is made. ”

Ting Fang said: "Not only can you see clearly, but the court hall has no clear view." ”

Fang Zhide slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity: "The country will be in chaos, and demons will come out." The capital was attacked again, and this time the city gates were broken, and the rebel army smashed the city and burned many houses. ”

Xu Jingchang was surprised: "The soldiers transferred from Datong can't hold it? ”

Fang Zhide was also surprised: "You confiscated His Highness's letter? ”

Xu Jingchang said: "When was the attack on the capital? I received His Highness's letter a few days ago, and I didn't mention it. ”

Fang Zhide said: "That's because the letter was delayed on the road." ”

Ting Fang hurriedly asked, "Did any of our family members have an accident?" ”

Fang Zhide shook his head and said, "I heard the news from elsewhere, and wait for the letter from Princess Qin." It is rumored that the feng shui of the capital is not good, and the soldiers transferred from Datong are not as good as in the frontier. I sound ridiculous, the top and bottom are not compatible, and the middle fighting method can still be compared with the frontier decree and prohibition? Not to mention that their treatment is not as good as that of the young master soldiers in the capital, but they have to earn their lives first if something happens. ”

Ting Fang muttered: "Holy Lord, I can't control the capital anymore. ”

Ting Fang felt a little uneasy in her heart, although King Fu had many guards, he had a big goal. It doesn't matter if the Li family is finished, I'm afraid that King Fu is gone, the prince is still alive, and they will be in trouble when they arrive. Moreover, a group of women and children in the Ye family really have foreign enemies, and that is to be slaughtered. However, it takes time to build, and now it is in the capital, and then the industrial road will have to be cut off. It is inevitable that there will be a trace of boredom, King Fu is too wasteful!

Fang Zhide continued: "Our silk business is not very good, in the end, the foundation is weak, the silk merchants believe in Liu Yongnian more, and the silk goes to him." In the second half of last year, only porcelain earned more, also relying on the geographical advantage. There are so many of our silks, and Liu Yongnian in Jiangsu has taken it, and the imperial courts elsewhere are staring at it, either we raise silkworms in Jiangxi, or we can only make porcelain. ”

Xu Jingchang's brows furrowed tightly, and he said after a while: "According to the original plan, it doesn't seem to be possible." If the capital can't be defended, won't we work in vain? ”

Fang Zhide said with a smile: "Then set up your own door." ”

Ting Fang said: "I don't want a country. After a pause, he added, "The capital is lost, the dragons are ownerless, and the generals with military power on the nine sides are only afraid of five or six rebellions." The saint occupies the righteousness, although it is more and more useless, in the end it can suppress the small. Yue Xing said it bluntly, he is in the position, although we also have bad ideas, but we all want to strengthen ourselves first, and we are not in a hurry to usurp power. But once he is gone, or the crown prince ascends the throne, all the people who are ready to move will come out of the hole, and then our strength will be strengthened, and it will be much more difficult to make the people who stand on their own surrender than the situation where everyone is making a fortune in silence now. For example, Liu Yongnian is just a businessman at the moment, and after a change of dynasty, he estimated each other's strength, and there was no loss if he changed his master and worshipped. If the flag is played, it will be cleaned up sooner or later. Instead of boiling a frog in warm water, it is better to die to the end. ”

Xu Jingchang also said: "I looked at the foreigner's steam engine before, and I couldn't understand it. Said with a wry smile, "They have already laid down the South Seas, aiming at us." Although we have firearms, we are still workshops. Have you seen the scene of Nanchang City? If you follow the usual cover method, I am afraid that I am still grinding my teeth now. But there is an assembly line by the river, and almost all the people have houses. It can be seen that the difference between the production line and the manual is seen. □□That's it, and ammunition. He sighed deeply, "Just like we draw a bow and shoot arrows, we have to practice □□, is it the same thing to practice with ammunition and practice without ammunition?" We want to use firearms to fight in the north and south, but the foreigners don't want to? ”

After a long pause, Xu Jingchang said again: "I know what you think. ”

Fang Zhide was shocked.

"Your Highness......" Xu Jingchang said dryly, "It's the only way to cite this advantage." "The longer I steward, the more I realize the inadequacy of King Fu. The emperor's eloquence and dexterity are strategic, shrewd and decisive, and he does not occupy any of them. Xu Jingchang's mood is also slowly changing. In today's situation, it is not so much that he is loyal to King Fu, but that he can only be loyal to King Fu. As Tingfang said, their primary purpose now is not to let the world become strife. There are many people who are easy to do, if it is dismantled like the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it is no longer the Qin State that plays long-distance friendship and close attack, but the West. Thinking of the humiliating □□ of the Han people in the Yuan Dynasty, Xu Jingchang felt a chill down his spine. Defending against foreigners is the ultimate goal, and as for who will be the emperor, it is all a trivial matter.

Ting Fang said softly: "Second Brother Fang, you look further. We are now like a big family, instead of following countless people to grab the burnt meat in the pot, it is better to go outside to forage for food. You don't want to stay in the Fang family and fight with the eldest prince about that idea of ancestral property, and we can't just look at the family name. The world is so big, backward will be beaten. The saints and elders can't control the capital, and the prince is a waste. If you really want to do that idea of family business, with our 10,000 troops in Donghu, we can also take the capital. Mr. Zhao's place is not impossible to talk about. His Royal Highness is not ambitious, and he may not be unwilling to accept the system of splitting the throne with him alone, imitating the system of the Han Dynasty offering emperors. To tell the truth from the bottom of our hearts, we don't want to usurp now, it's not that we can't, but we don't want to be the king of the country. ”

Fang Zhide has been floating on the sea all the year round, it's okay not to mention it, but when he mentions it, he knows that Xu Jingchang and his wife are not alarmist. They are all merchant ships, and the difference between them and foreigners is more than a star and a half? I asked myself if I was caught up in a fight at sea, and I was dead. Sailing is risky, Fang Zhide doesn't know how many times he has fought against water bandits, but those fierce bandits, after seeing the □□ camp, walked around them. □□ is more ruthless than a sword, and if it is injured, it is very easy to get infected and die. And what about artillery? Dealing with foreigners all year round, but covering his head with a quilt, he is reluctant to poke the window paper. I really have some understanding of fighting for family property, no matter how pasty the meat is, I always see it, and I always know the root of the fight at home; Outside, it's like a dark mist, and if you step on it, you may fall off a cliff. The unknown is always much more terrifying than the known.

The three of them were silent, and the internal and external troubles were nothing more than that. Especially Tingfang, she knew the specific appearance of a hundred years of humiliation, so she was more frightened and tormented. This year is 1796, and in the history of her previous life, the Qing Dynasty was killed by the Tenrikyo Sect around this time. But the Yan Dynasty is not as good as the Qing Dynasty, no matter how bad the Qing Dynasty is, after carefully pulling a few times, there are always some advantages. At least Yongzheng implemented the apportionment of the land into the mu, the gentry paid the grain as one, and at least the Qing Dynasty also changed the salt tax. In addition to the introduction of corn and other things, the Yan Dynasty could no longer see the side. From the founding of the country to the present, even Yongzheng has not exploded. Therefore, at the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Westernization Movement was carried out, and it was a dying struggle. No matter how ugly it looks, it has bought time for Huaxia in the end. Ting Fang was very skeptical that the decaying appearance of the Yan Dynasty could really survive until the rabbit □□ appeared. Decades earlier, the situation was very different.

Fang Zhide's mind was buzzing, and he asked blankly: "What should we do?" Lao Jian is cold in spring and hot in autumn, and the saint dies, but he can ......"

Xu Jingchang said: "You take Zhou Yi away and quickly transfer all the soldiers from East Lake to Jiangxi." ”

Ting Fang looked at Xu Jingchang fiercely: "What do you want to do?" ”

Xu Jingchang's eyes froze: "More than 10,000 soldiers and horses, enough to step on Jiangxi!" 166 Reading Network
