Chapter 624: The Rise of the Three Youths of the Wang Family
Specifically, it was not someone else who put forward the idea of fixed ammunition, but the three young men of the famous Wang family, who were known as the great heroes in the capital!
recalled that at that time, Sanshao was almost besieged by his family when he was conducting experiments at home. At that time, he was wise enough to say, "As long as the space is limited when the gunpowder is ignited, it will explode", and when he said this, he didn't even know the principle of firecrackers.
At that time, the Great Demon King gave him a few slaps and said, "Firecrackers are like this." As a result, the relatively clear and strange thinking of the three young men of the Wang family began to think: Then why should gunpowder and bullets be separated, combined together like a firecracker, and it is not okay for Mao?
In view of the fact that Sanshao and Cao Ji have the best relationship, as soon as he was injured, he basically asked his uncle to take him to see a doctor, so this idea was learned by Cao Ji.
In the end, Cao Ji's idea was learned by the Department of Industry, so the fixed ammunition on both sides came out almost at the same time.
Listening to their babbling and explanation here, the Great Demon King didn't know if he should praise the three young classmates for this matter? Praise, it's a bit bad that he's the younger brother of the Great Demon King, and the person who actually made the results was of course not Sanshao, but a factory master and an academic researcher.
So the Great Demon King simply didn't say anything, and continued to pretend to be stupid and observe with a fixed load.
was robbed of the first credit by Cao Ji, Shen Kuo couldn't bear it anymore, he also picked up the fixed ammunition of Cao Ji's factory and observed: "Xianggong, I really can't bear the urine of their private capitalists, look at it, to what extent does he cut corners?" The shells turned out to be made of paper! He is stealing the ideas of our industrial department and infringing on our design plan. ”
Cao Ji couldn't help pinching Shen Kuo's neck and shaking it vigorously: "Turtle son, you are the wicked person who sued first?" The people in the military department have always said that they want to drag you to a place with few people and bury you alive, there is a reason, and you use the majesty of Xiangye all day long. The conscience of heaven and earth, this fixed bomb is an idea put forward by the younger brother of Mingfu, and our factory is the first to design it, and I am the one who was stolen by you! ”
"Hey, you two, don't hurt the peace." They were separated.
Shen Kuo said: "Hugh wants to occupy the emperor's relatives and relatives to talk nonsense, you say it is your research and development and design, patent documents?" ”
Cao Ji said with a face like the bottom of a pot: "I'm angry when I talk about this, the damn referee is, and the player is also you." Do you dare to be more shameless, because your own son factory of the Industrial Department is also designing this bullet, so the application I submitted was deliberately suppressed by your Industrial Division, and after your own factory comes out, you are this face of taking advantage, which is unbearable! ”
At this point, Shen Kuo also blushed slightly.
Seeing this situation, the Great Demon King is psychologically clear, I'm afraid that Shen Kuo really doesn't have a bowl of water in this matter. Cao Ji's kid said "they came out first" It is estimated that there is also some water, it should be almost out together, and seeing that the plan is similar, Shen Kuo released water to state-owned enterprises, not Cao Ji's factory.
This is a political task to a certain extent, since the Great Demon King came to power, the explicit policy did not say that capital should be suppressed, but the Department of Industry was asked not to be too indulgent Ye Wushuang and Cao Ji to fully grasp the lifeblood of industry.
At this point, it was a little embarrassing, it was inconvenient for Shen Kuo to say the unspoken rules of the Great Demon King on the surface, and Cao Ji was also a smart person, knowing that this must be the default policy of the Great Demon King, otherwise Shen Kuo would not dare to do this. If it weren't for the similar guidance from the top, with Cao Ji's channels and connections, he would have privately handled the relevant bureaucrats of the Industrial Department for public relations.
So Cao Ji also stopped in time and didn't continue to stab.
After hesitating for a while, Shen Kuo still felt that he couldn't let go and said: "Xianggong is clear, Cao Ji said that they came out first is not objective enough. Of course, the player and the referee were me, but there was a basis for me to dare to rule in this lawsuit at that time. As far as I know, both applications are submitted at the same time. Therefore, of course, I am inclined to state-owned enterprises, because state-owned enterprises need them more, and state-owned enterprises also have to bear more obligations and responsibilities when they are special, so when there is no obvious bias, there is nothing wrong with giving benefits to state-owned enterprises that have paid greater responsibilities and obligations. In view of the fact that the plans of the two factories were the same at that time, now the royal relatives in front of us who have a bad stomach and bad water, he is involved in the infringement of technology, and he should be punished, please make a public ruling. ”
Seeing that the little uncle was extremely aggrieved, and he was very cooperative in the early stage, it was real to donate 10 million yuan of equity to the imperial court, and he also had to take care of it, so the big demon king deliberately asked the little uncle: "Do you have any defense?" ”
Cao Ji said confidently: "Mingfu, in fact, my plan is different from his, he uses copper to design, and mine is paper." ”
Shen Kuo said: "This is still a sideshow. And you dare to make it with paper? Do you know how big the drawbacks are? ”
At this point, Wang Yan really believed that it was the idea of Sanshao and Cao Ji. Firecrackers are made of paper, and after Sanshao put forward this initial point of view, Cao Ji, as a capitalist, mainly used and shortcut ideas, and had this plan.
In fact, it is better to use copper for fixed-loading ammunition, but not to mention, paper for cartridge shells is still a compromise solution. Because when it explodes in the barrel, the paper bullet shell does not need bearing strength, and only plays the role of fixing the primer and sealing, so it is simpler and faster to manufacture and lower in cost, not to mention, it also solves the crisis of lack of copper in the Great Song Dynasty.
Otherwise, under the current currency policy, the Great Song Dynasty could not afford to fight a war that turned copper into a large number of consumables.
In this regard, the Great Demon King did not want to get involved in their lawsuit, "put aside the dispute for the time being." Looking at it this way, Cao Ji's fixed-loading ammunition scheme is indeed different from that of the Industrial Division, and the difference between paper and copper is very large. The Industrial Division plans to retain it as a technical reserve, but under the existing conditions, it can only purchase Cao Ji's fixed-loading ammunition. Let's talk about winning this national war first. ”
Cao Ji and Shen Kuo were a little unconvinced, but they didn't say anything.
The Great Demon King said: "If there are fixed guns, there will be fixed cannonballs." Now the factories have to cooperate with the new equipment replacement scheme and fully switch to the production of breech guns and breech guns. If it is too late for the army, it can be postponed, but the navy's refit and supply must be put on the agenda as soon as possible, so that the navy's security and combat efficiency can be further improved when the number of our frigates is temporarily limited. ”
The relevant official of the Department of Industry said: "Rest assured, our bureau is also thinking in this way, has entered the schedule, after the notice was issued in advance, the navy is very excited, saying that if the breech guns and fixed ammunition can be modified in batches, in addition to ensuring a faster rate of fire during naval warfare, it can also greatly solve the safety of the navy, ammunition separation, a large amount of contact with gunpowder, and on the battleship full of fuel, the potential safety hazards in the process of engagement are too great, the naval battle of Zhouhu Island continues to the present, and two of the naval warships were exploded and sunk due to such related problems. ”
"In view of the limitations of the sea and the cabin environment of the battleship, the Royal Navy strongly requires that the naval version of the fixed artillery shells is still made of copper, although the cost is high, but our company thinks it is reasonable, please decide?" The official of the Department of Industry finally added.
Cao Ji smiled cruelly: "If you say that the turtle sons of the navy, if you really believe you, you will lose." Didn't you Xu Langshan almost get bitten a while ago? ”
The Great Demon King immediately pointed at Cao Ji's nose and said, "Don't mess around if you don't have principles." Do you know that the Department of Industry suppressed you for Mao? Because you're urinating like that. Because your cartridge casings are paper, you began to denigrate all ammunition made of copper? ”
The Great Demon King continued: "The specific incident should be treated in three dimensions, at this point I don't think the navy is too demanding, no matter how difficult it is to lack copper, it must also be specially supplied with naval copper shells, limited to the environment of the battleship, the shell shells are easy to recover, isn't it?" So the consumption of copper is relatively limited. ”
At this point, the officials of the Department of Industry applauded. Although the Great Demon King released water to Cao Ji, it was actually equivalent to 50 pumps each, and the army's ammunition plan was given to the coal yard to consider the cost, but the state-owned enterprises got a special supply of naval ammunition.
To be honest, the current industrial department is not bad at the profit brought by this order, but it can be regarded as a political return to some face. suppressed the arrogance of a certain emperor's top profiteer.
When Cao Ji wanted to say something more, the Great Demon King said in a low voice: "Don't talk about it again." Otherwise, when the prince is in power, if you enable Han Qi, you may still be able to breathe, and if you enable my father Wang Anshi, you will stop cooking, you know, I can't protect you at that time, because I, like you, have been hung up and rubbed by my father at the same time. ”
In this regard, Cao Ji is also low-key. It's all in plain sight.
In the eyes of Cao Ji, a political opportunist, Zhao Zongshi has a good relationship with Han Qi, but the variable is that too many mistakes by Han Qi earlier have made Zhao Zongshi afraid, limited to the current influence of the Great Demon King, it is indeed possible for Zhao Zongshi to rely on the big king when he is in power in the future.
The eldest king has always been a pill, and he mentioned a lot of new laws and measures when he was not in power earlier, which scared everyone, including the emperor, so he also wrote a long article of more than 10,000 words to Zhao Zhen. That's a really uncomfortable existence.
At this point, the inspection is over, the Great Demon King is very pleased with the R&D and innovation capabilities of the Great Song Dynasty, from today, it is not clear when it will be fully redressed, but it also means that the combat power of the Great Song Dynasty army has entered a new chapter - the era of breech guns is officially coming, and it is not far from the sudden burst of fire......
