Liu Pei had to pay attention to the timber in Dongjiang Town, which was too important to him. It was the only source of timber for his shipbuilding. There is no timber for ships in the hinterland of China, and only in the deep mountains and old forests of western Liaoning can he have the timber he needs. The best oak is only produced in western Liaoning. If you want to find the right wood, you have to go to Southeast Asia to find teak. However, at present, the degree of development in Southeast Asia is about zero. So Liu Pei can't lose the source of this wood no matter what! He must stabilize Mao Wenlong. But don't let Mao Wenlong feel that he is choking his lifeline, so that he can sit on the ground and raise the price.

When Wu Yizhou heard this, he would naturally implement it conscientiously. After all, now the direction of the Navy is in his charge. So he was very concerned about it. He said: "The head of the family, Mao Wenlong has many godsons, and they also have a lot of soldiers. Do you want to get in touch with them and ask them to help with the logging? ”

Wu Yizhou was overjoyed when he heard it! said: "This idea of the head of the family is good! Mao Wenlong has a lot of people under him, but there are not many weapons. He didn't have iron ore there, and all the weapons he used relied on the imperial court to import. Iron must also be imported from the outside. So if we sell him weapons, he will be happy! ”

Wu Yizhou replied with a smile: "Don't worry, family master!" I'm going to get enough people and timber back. ”

When Liu Pei came back, it was just in time for the first results of the Academy of Sciences to appear. As soon as he arrived at the garrison, he received a notice that the first water wheel would be installed and used today. This made Liu Pei's somewhat low spirit excited.

At this time, the installation of the waterwheel has reached the last step and is being hoisted. This waterwheel is not particularly large, with a diameter of about six meters. In order to house the waterwheels, a stone platform was built with cement and stone slabs on the riverside. A huge temporary hanger was erected on it. The runner of the waterwheel is being hoisted against the pedestal.

Remember the URL

Everyone stared at the giant waterwheel. The water crashes against the underwater blades, making a "whoosh" sound. Under the impact of the current, the waterwheel remained motionless. Just when everyone thought that the waterwheel had failed, the wheel of the waterwheel suddenly moved, and then it turned little by little. After half a turn of the waterwheel, who overflowed from the impeller tank and landed in the storage tank covered with stone slabs below, splashing a cloud of mist!

Liu Pei only then began to look for Bao Dezhi in the crowd. Soon he was seen. After all, modern people are nutritionally balanced, and their height is slightly higher than that of ancient people. At the same time that he saw Bao Dezhi, Bao Dezhi also looked back and saw him.

Bao Dezhi approached, and his soldiers drove the nearby people away. Don't let them come close. Liu Pei jumped off the horse and said, "Bao Gong, the first task of the Academy of Sciences has been completed." But do you think we're aiming a little lower? A waterwheel can't reflect the ability of the Academy of Sciences at all! ”

Liu Pei could understand Bao Dezhi's words, but he was really anxious. said: "Is there any way to speed up our goal?" ”

Liu Pei rubbed his face vigorously and said with a smile: "Okay, let's not mention this!" Actually, I also know that I am really in a hurry. But every time we get stronger, we can save many more people. If I could buy machine guns in the country, now I would be able to unify the whole planet with the Han Chinese! ”

Liu Pei nodded in agreement and said, "Okay, borrow your auspicious words." That's right! Bao Gong, I will still call you Mr. Bao in the future, this title makes sense everywhere. In addition, you also talk to the people in the Academy of Sciences, and give yourself a name. If you don't have a word at your age, you will be laughed at. ”

Liu Pei said: "Then you can discuss it first." If you can give yourself a watch, you can do it yourself. No, just report to me, I'll help you up. ”

Liu Peiwei said with a smile: "Generally, the words are given by the elders to the younger generations. Can you accept it? ”

Liu Pei pondered for a moment and said, "Just call Shouyi." A person who can maintain a virtuous person to the highest state can also become a saint! ”
