Chapter 539: The First Snow

The first snow fell in Jiayou's fourth year, but this winter was not too cold. Because the ability to withstand the cold is several notches greater than before.

In the heavy snow in mid-November, the "Beijing Academy of Engineering" was officially inaugurated, and Wang Yan personally presided over the ceremony.

At present, there are 67 members of the Academy of Engineering. In the rapid industrial process in recent years, special talents have emerged from various schools and factories.

Originally, Da Yan wanted to include some people in the military construction supervisor and the craftsman supervisor into the category of engineering academicians, but those people themselves were officials, and they were afraid that they would be excluded by going too close to the Great Demon King, so they gave up this reputation.

Can't blame them, in later generations, academician is a vice-ministerial title, is the strongest aura in the technical world, but in the Great Song Dynasty, it is impossible to include them in the series, from the book to ask them for the title of Qipin has been Wang Yan's full efforts.

And Fu Bi is still very obscene Academician Yan Ka's indicators, and the name of the Great Demon King is more than 100 people. However, Fu Xiangye simply and rudely divided it by two, and came to the conclusion that "the Academy of Engineering can only have sixty-seven academicians". The groove is terrible, and Da Yan is powerless to complain about these Xiangye.

As a last resort, Wang Yan privately named the remaining people "Alternate Academicians", which is regarded as a career editor hired by the Department of Industry and enjoys the same treatment as academicians, but there is no official rank for the time being.

Even if this is carried out, it is still a loophole. Ye Wushuang and Cao Ji, the two turtle sons, with the reputation of "congratulating the Academy of Engineering on its listing and donating scientific research equipment", came to the weasel to pay New Year's greetings and had many contacts, and they poached about a dozen backup academicians with high salaries.

The Great Demon King felt that they were really enough, but he could only stare dryly. Because the Great Demon King can only brainwash and talk about faith, but he really can't lock them up, and in the face of the temptation of high salaries, and he can't give them a set for the time being, there will always be some guys who are not firm enough.

The engineering institute is a place for research and practical application, so almost all of the components come from the manufacturing industry and related engineering designers who have emerged in recent years.

This group of people is the most powerful engineer on the existing earth, in general, they are very grassroots, but they have a lot of experience in design and tooling, familiar with all kinds of existing processes, gathered together, led by Shen Kuo to integrate their ideas, basically as long as it is not the moon, as long as the Great Demon King proposes something, they can combine the existing capabilities of the Great Song Dynasty, and come up with a plan that can be used.

For example, at that time, the flat-bottomed ship was tackled by their own strong engineering experience and collective efforts. It's just that at that time, people were temporarily drawn from all over the world, and basically the chief engineers of the whole industry were gathered, called the project team, and there was no concept of an engineering institute. Now it does.

In addition to the Academy of Engineering, there is also the Royal Academy of Sciences.

The establishment of the Academy of Sciences is larger, because the sponsor is Da Yan, so it is also listed under the umbrella of the Department of Industry for the time being. This part of the people is Shen Kuo's continuous collection of talents from all over the world according to Wang Yan's requirements, no matter what kind of talents, they can basically be included in the Academy of Sciences.

Then there are people from the "two universities", namely Funing University and Beijing Coal College. Most of these are engaged in pure theory, delving into mathematics, physics and chemistry, and have papers and achievements, and they have basically been awarded the title of academician by Dayan.

In addition, there are also some talents from the coastal areas, who are the fairy sisters who practiced swords at the seaside at that time, and a strong group of people with rich oceanographic accumulation and aquatic product experience.

Then there is agriculture, animal husbandry, etc., and those teams in Dayangshu have also produced a lot of results over the years.

In addition, Princess Cho Yun-hee also entered the Academy of Sciences. Since it is the halo of Lao Zhao to title the Royal Academy of Sciences, Wang Yan awarded Zhao Yunxi the honorary president. It's really not a ** deal, although everyone thinks so.

In fact, as the largest landlord, she really had experience in agriculture and accumulated some agricultural secret recipes, which are said to have been developed by her. Since she really has such ideas and experience, and she really has unparalleled connections and channels in this area, she was made to concurrently serve as the Agricultural Institute of the Academy of Sciences and do all kinds of agricultural seed improvement work.

In the past, she only had experience, but the so-called research and development was completely based on luck, and there was no relatively systematic theoretical basis. Just because she has enough land, she has the relevant heart to grasp this mouthful, so it means that she has big data in agriculture in the Great Song Dynasty.

But the overall approach is to wait and see. Mutations in nature happen all the time, for example, at one point she and her doglegs found a lot of rice, especially fast and full, although she didn't know what caused it, but she would catch this phenomenon and isolate the "mutated" guy. This is how a new breed is born.

She has the resources, her management style and the reward and punishment system, and naturally there is a group of doglegs dedicated to discovering these for her.

Now, combined with the theories taught to her by Dayan, she has learned not to wait for the rabbit, but to take the initiative to attack, and begin to try to purify some of her unique varieties, and the next step will be to start crossbreeding and breeding new agricultural varieties.

Doing these things is definitely the fastest in Hainan or Vietnam, but it is impossible for her to lead the team to the Qiuba area to take root, and there is no rush anyway, so let her do it and do it slowly.

Anyway, the main purpose of agriculture is to ensure safety, and even if it is done quickly, the ultimate benefits are limited......

In the heavy snow, Wang Yan was dressed like a stuffed bear, and when he entered the Academy of Sciences, he could see a mess of rulers and compasses everywhere, and there were also some special laboratories where some guys were arguing with Arabic numerals all over the blackboard.

Yes, in order to be more efficient, now they have also learned to use simple numbers instead of the traditional "one, two, three, four, five, six, seven". The traditional Confucian Party cannot accept this set of figures, but these academicians will, the degree of stubbornness is limited, at least under the aura of the Great Demon King, they will not have an opinion.

Zhao Yunxi was reading in the hall of the agricultural institute, and her rich experience allowed her to understand Wang Yan's theories at a glance, so she had a black line on her face, and she couldn't wait to cut her results, if she knew these theories earlier, it was estimated that there would be 700 catties of grain per mu.

"Your Highness, what are you doing with a black line on your face?" When Wang Yan came in, he found her looking like she wanted to give herself a knife.

After seeing him, Zhao Yunxi's eyes lit up, put down the book and got up, forced Da Yan into a corner step by step, and said, "Who taught you these things?" ”

"It's what the old man said in a dream." That's how she answered her at all times.

Looking at him now, Zhao Yunxi is also very emotional. That year, the heavy snow filled the capital, and this kid came to the door to threaten and blackmail. At that time, he was a hateful mess, and he was far less handsome and feeling than he is now.

Because the emperor's brother was not in good health, the political situation in the capital was complicated, and he was afraid of getting into trouble if no one protected him in the future, Cho Yunxi chose to compromise at that time. Later, it was a blessing in disguise, and the investment in some industries has greatly increased in value, in addition, after merging his agricultural research plate in Shuzhou, he has changed from a hateful landlord to a giant who formulates agricultural standards, and has the aura of scientific research.

He also established the Agricultural Communications Bank by sharing his financial license and relying on his reputation and signboard, and his business has expanded significantly, which are all benefits.

But now it can't be rude to him, he has become a "famous flower", and he is a heavyweight feudal official, the champion of the Great Song Dynasty.

So Princess Zhao resisted the impulse and said, "Ask the prime minister about the planning of the next railway of the 101 Institute." ”

Wang Yan suddenly said in horror: "You, what kind of fart deal do you have with Wang Gongchen again?" ”

Zhao Yunxi said with a smile, "Roar, what Xiao Wang Xianggong said is so ugly." Although they are not phoenixes, even if they have an ass and want to trade, they are only for you......"

Wang Yan interrupted: "Okay, okay, put away the yellow paragraph first, what do you just say about this railway?" ”

Really, she knew what she wanted to do as soon as she cocked her ass, and at this time she took the initiative to mention the next railway, which was definitely related to Wang Gongchen. As expected, Wang Gongchen is now in Dengzhou, and they want to promote the railway from the Daimyofu to Dengzhou.

"Frankly speaking, you didn't mention that I wanted to build this railway, but you planned and envisioned it before I spoke, which made me feel like I was being led by the nose. I don't want you to succeed. Wang Yan added.

Zhao Yunxi said embarrassedly: "Don't make a mistake, this is the country's plan, it has nothing to do with your personal interests, and it has nothing to do with whether your thoughts are accessible." ”

Wang Yan said: "Of course, it has something to do with my preferences, the railways are just repaired, no matter where they pass, they are the interests of the Great Song Dynasty, and they are all the overall planning ability of the Great Song Dynasty, regardless of each other." ”

Zhao Yunxi took another step closer, and said with his body in his entirety: "You just blow hard, the plane has been blown into the sky by you, which fully proves your ability to brag." ”

"You ......" Wang Yan was a little angry.

Zhao Yunxi smiled again: "I know you." You will definitely build this railway, otherwise Fujiwara Mitsuko, the daughter of Prime Minister Washima, will not be stranded in the Daimyo's Mansion at this time. It is clear that you have an ulterior deal with her, and you want to build the railway to Dengzhou, so as to successfully re-export Fujiwara Mitsuko's silver, and send all kinds of materials from your Daimyo Mansion to Dengzhou Port to go to sea, which is a binding of interests between you and the Japanese. I just took the initiative to move the process forward. ”

Wang Yan had a black line on his face: "It is indeed my interest, but Your Highness, you can pull it down." Now that you know my strategy through Fujiwara Mitsuko, it's an idiot for me to step on it. Who knows how much land you and Wang Gongchen have acquired on this line waiting for 'demolition'? Damn, do you really think I'm wronged? ”

Zhao Yunxi couldn't help but blush.

Wang Yan looked at the pill, and damn it, they were the first three rows to grasp the opportunity, but they couldn't harmonize them, so the cost of this railway would be greatly high. So he shook his hand and said, "If you don't cultivate, I will resolutely not step on your trap." ”

Zhao Yunxi said angrily: "We are making reasonable use of the policy. If you don't fix it, how can you get through the capacity of Dengzhou Port? How do you start trading with Japan? At this point, she pointed to the map of the agricultural area and said: "If the palace is not mistaken, there is no river to go to Dengzhou." ”

Wang Yan pointed to a certain place in the area of the Daimyo's Mansion on the map and said, "You are wrong, I can't imagine what you can imagine." The attack on the yellow powder has made considerable progress, and I only need to concentrate on this position to blow up a fork of the Yellow River, from which the Yellow River will pass through the dry rivers flowing through Qizhou and Qingzhou, and finally it will naturally flow out of a gap in the Bohai Sea closer to Dengzhou. After the redesign of our ship, it can even be directly traded in the Bohai Sea by the Daimyofu. ”
