Time flies, and it's almost mid-August. After autumn, the weather in Lin'an City has become much more pleasant. The government and the opposition are calm, the market is peaceful, but it is also a prosperous scene.

With the completion of the construction of six new sets of dragon king vehicles and ladder trucks, the fire extinguishing efficiency and capacity have been greatly improved. Although a total of seven sets of powerful fire extinguishing equipment cannot equip every fire tower, in order to cover the whole city, Fang Zi'an specially set up a special service mobile team. In the southeast, northwest, and center of Lin'an City, seven special service teams were set up with dragon king vehicles and ladder vehicles as the main structure. In this way, the original regional division was abandoned and a full-fledged reinforcement mechanism was established. In the event of a fire, it is ensured that at least several sets of new fire extinguishing equipment are present in the left near area.

At the same time, in order to ensure mobility, Fang Zi'an gritted his teeth and took out a few hundred taels of silver from the small amount of money to buy dozens of big green mules to pull carts and travel, which greatly alleviated the original way of relying on manpower to run to the fire scene and push and pull fire-fighting vehicles. But even so, Fang Zi'an was still not satisfied, fighting fires is like saving lives, 100,000 urgent things, delaying for a moment may cause huge losses of property and life. In addition to improving firefighting equipment and firefighting skills, mobility is also extremely important. This made Fang Zi'an eagerly look forward to a greater breakthrough in the manufacturing technology of the steam engine, which could be applied to land transportation as soon as possible.

However, Fang Zi'an knew that this kind of thing was in a hurry. Under the existing smelting technology, it is impossible to make a big breakthrough in a short period of time, but Fang Zi'an believes that the breakthrough is certain, and it is only a matter of time.

At the beginning of August, Fang Zi'an went to the Wantou Village Manufacturing Bureau once and had a long talk with Su Heng about the improvement of the steam engine. What you know and recall, and even some of your own ideas for improvement, are all poured into the bamboo tube. For example, the possibility of adding cylinders, integrating gearboxes, manufacturing bearings to reduce wear, establishing external condensation systems, improving crankshaft transmissions, and so on. For Fang Zi'an, each of these suggestions seemed to be an impossible task, and he could only hope to share these with Su Heng so that Su Heng could make a choice and study. All he can offer is ideas and direction.

However, Su Heng was very excited. That's exactly what he lacks. These general directions that Fang Zi'an said can just stimulate his determination to devote himself to research and overcome difficulties. Because he found that once the improvements proposed by Fang Zi'an were successful, each of them would solve all aspects of the existing steam engine. One provides theories and ideas, the other is good at making and solving problems in practice, and in fact the two are a very subtle combination. However, it takes a lot of time, effort and money to achieve the goal.

On the issue of financing the Manufacturing Bureau, Fang Zi'an does not intend to borrow the hands of others. Qin Xiqing has done her best, and her savings are actually not much. Although on the way back to the city after the Dream set sail that day, Qin Xiqing said that she could still scrape together some silver to solve the silver taels needed for the large infrastructure of the Manufacturing Bureau. But Fang Zi'an refused. Because Fang Zi'an was really a little unbearable.

Fang Zi'an's solution to the problem is to go to financing. He found Ma Xin and Ma Dong of the Bandung Commercial Bank, which had previously cooperated in the distribution of maritime trade goods, and signed an agreement with Ma Xin on the condition that the goods were reduced by half and that the Wanlong Commercial Bank was given the exclusive right to distribute the goods. Ma Xin was originally a little uneasy, but Fang Zi'an's current identity is different, he is a court official, and he has a relationship with Qin Xiqing, so Ma Xin finally agreed to this condition. Moreover, Fang Zi'an made half of the profit, which made him profit by one percent. And when Ma Xin learned that Fang Zi'an's sea ship had been out to sea for half a month, and when the sea ship returned, it was another period of huge profits with an extremely short overseas cargo, Ma Xin had no reason to hesitate. So, Fang Zi'an got an advance payment of 30,000 taels for the approximate valuation of a shipload of goods. After this money was in hand, plus the manufacturing bureau originally had a running silver tael left, the cash capital of the manufacturing bureau reached as much as 50,000 taels. There is sufficient capital to meet the needs of the present day. x33 mini phone: tts:ヽ。

When Fang Zi'an told Qin Xiqing about this, Qin Xiqing was stunned. Qin Xiqing thinks that this method is very risky, it is completely Yin's food, what if something happens to the big ship at sea

Fang Zi'an's answer almost made Qin Xiqing turn his back on him.

"It's the uncle who owes the money, and it's the grandson who borrows the money. Even if something happens to the Dream and the goods can't be delivered, he Ma Xin can only wait for me to make a comeback. He even had to lend me money to get me back on my feet. Unless he doesn't want the money, he's going to pay for me. ”

During this time, Fang Zi'an also went to Shi's house several times, saying that he was going to visit Shi Hao, but in fact, he was going to see Shi Ningyue. Shi Hao also knew that even if he was at home, he would just talk to Fang Zi'an for a while, and then shirk having something to do and let Fang Zi'an take care of himself. That was actually to give Fang Zi'an time to talk to Shi Ningyue. Shi Hao has actually acquiesced to the marriage, but he hasn't made it clear yet.

Taking advantage of the autumn season, Fang Zi'an also took Shi Ningyue to visit the West Lake once, visited the Lingyin Temple, and the two also asked for marriage in front of the Buddha statue in the Lingyin Temple, just like an unmarried couple. 0

However, in this peaceful day, there are also regrettable things that happen. Zhang Xiaoxiang's father, Zhang Qi, died of illness on August 11 at the home of Zhang Xiaoxiang in Yan Mei Fang. Zhang Qi's death was not because he was tried and tortured not long ago, when Fang Zi'an went to mourn, he learned the reason from Zhang Xiaoxiang's mouth.

It turned out that Zhang Qi had always been reluctant to let go of Ding's death, and always felt that he had lured the wolf into the house and did not listen to Ding's words, which led to Ding's killing by Xin Mei. No matter how the people around him enlightened, even after Zhang Xiaoxiang took Mrs. Zhang from Wuhu to the capital, Mrs. Zhang's careful guidance failed to let him go. Zhang Qi's body became weaker and weaker in this self-blame, and in the end, he couldn't even swallow water and rice. In the end, he was unable to return to heaven and died depressed. To some extent, Zhang Qi actually died of guilt and self-blame, depression and hunger strike.

Fang Zi'an sighed at this, and could only comfort Zhang Xiaoxiang and Mrs. Zhang. This account will naturally be counted on the Qin Party in the end.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, the annual festival is coming, and the city of Lin'an has become more lively.

Qin Xiqing has not seen Fang Zi'an much recently, she is busy with this year's new song conference, which is a major event for Wan Chunyuan and herself. Qin Xiqing actually didn't spend too much time in Wanchun Garden this year, so those loyal fans in Lin'an City were already very dissatisfied. If you don't do anything in the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, I'm afraid those people won't agree. x

Qin Xiqing wants to support the brand of Wanchunyuan, because this is not only a green building, but also because this is a secret intelligence station. Zhao Ying also reminded Qin Xiqing that she must put her mind on Wanchun Garden, and the information collected by Wanchun Garden was very important to him. Therefore, Qin Xiqing must maintain the prosperity of Wanchun Garden and the relationship with those wealthy officials.

Originally, Fang Zi'an didn't want to take the poems for himself anymore and deceive the world and steal his name. But Qin Xiqing really didn't collect more and better poems for composing new songs. After all, Qin Xiqing still has high requirements for herself, and she will not be too complacent in lyrics and songs.

Therefore, Fang Zi'an had to help her in this matter. On the thirteenth day of the first month, Fang Zi'an went to Qingyuan and sent two new poems.

The first poem says: It can be eliminated even more, a few storms, and the spring returns in a hurry. Cherish the long spring and fear that the flowers will bloom early, not to mention the countless reds. Spring and live, see said, the end of the world has no way back. Complaining about the spring is silent. It is only attentive, painting eaves spiders, and flying flotsam as much as possible.

The long door matter, the quasi-good date is wrong. Moth Mei was once jealous. The daughter buys the same thing, who sues Jun Mo Wu in this situation, Jun is not seen, Yuhuan Feiyan is dust! Idleness is the most bitter! Hugh went to lean on the danger bar, the sun was slanting, and the smoke willow was broken.

The second poem says: Through the ages, heroes are nowhere to be found, and Sun Zhong is looking for a solution. The dance pavilion is always blown away, and the rain blows the wind. The grass and trees in the slanting sun, the ordinary alleys, and the humane slaves once lived. Thinking back then, Jin Ge Iron Horse swallowed thousands of miles like a tiger.

Yuan Jia was hastily, sealed the wolf Juxu, and won the Canghuang Beigu. Forty-three years, I still remember the beacon Yangzhou Road. can look back, under the Buddha shrine, a crow shrine drum. Who asks, Lian is quite old, can he still eat?

These two long words are heroic and graceful, and they are both Jiaxuan nouns. It's not that Fang Zi'an is picking a sheep's wool, but Fang Zi'an's favorite lyricist is this Xin Qiji, who is still in infancy. And these two words also fit the mood of the atmosphere at the moment, and the meaning is meaningful.

When Qin Xiqing saw these two words, she admired them for a long time, and naturally admired Fang Zi'an very much. That night, he spent the whole night composing music for it. Qin Xiqing knows that this Mid-Autumn Festival New Song Conference must be based on these two songs, and the rest can be used as a foil.

The next day, Wan Chunyuan released a message, announcing that on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15, Qin Xiqing's new song conference was held on the bank of the Guanlan Bridge on the Su Causeway of West Lake. This is the location personally chosen by Qin Xiqing, and the secret intention is to commemorate the first reunion with Fang Zi'an. Back then, it was under the Guanlan Bridge, among the red boats in Wanchun Garden, and also during the Mid-Autumn Festival, that Fang Zi'an appeared in Qin Xiqing's field of vision.

Fang Zi'an naturally received an invitation, Shi Ningyue also received an invitation, and in addition, more than 40 Lin'an celebrities and gentry officials received invitations to attend the meeting. It has become a hot spot in the city. div
