Chapter 1035: Rapidly Evolving Europe
Just as Dolgon thought, the Ming Dynasty found out that he was going to merge with the countries of Europe. Vertex updates are the fastest
Originally, Dolgon did his best to barely keep the matter of letting Zihar secretly contact European countries not be noticed by the Ming Dynasty, but now in a war with Tsarist Russia, everything has been exposed, because of such a sudden outbreak of war, the Ming will definitely pay attention to the reasons for this.
"Hehe, Hezong against my Da Ming?" Zhu Ci smiled disdainfully.
Since the development of the Ming Dynasty, it is not that he looks down on the Manchus and Europe, but that he is very confident that even if the Manchus and Europe are truly united, they will not have enough strength to be the opponent of the Ming Dynasty.
Because of self-confidence, Zhu Ciji didn't care whether the Manchu Qing Dynasty really succeeded in merging with European countries, such a mentality was out of Dorgon's worries, and Daming still calmly developed according to the original plan.
On the American continent, the pace of migration is increasing as fast as possible. On the shipyard side, various types of ships are also being built in an orderly manner.
---------------------
Daming's calm made Dolgon wonder whether Daming already knew that he planned to confront Daming with European countries, but Daming did not react, which also means that Daming will not immediately attack Daqing on a large scale, so Dorgon is also relieved, Daqing needs time to develop!
With the end of the war between the Manchus and the Russian Empire, and the Ming Dynasty will not attack the Manchus on a large scale in the near future, the world has once again entered a short period of calm, and the calm is excessive.
Not only did the Manchus desperately increase their military strength, but the European countries, mainly Britain, Spain, the Netherlands, France, and Portugal, had already stopped competing for Africa. Even the completely liberated Austria, although it had the ambition to do something in Europe, controlled it and did not go to war with anyone.
Such excessive calm seems to be heralding the eve of the next storm.
--------------------------
Soon, the time entered the thirty-third year of Daming Zhongxing.
Five years have passed since the 22nd year of Zhongxing in the Ming Dynasty, and the first batch of European students came to Daming.
Five years is enough time for international students to learn a lot of advanced technologies and theories of the Ming Dynasty, return to Europe, and develop their own country.
In fact, because of the rapid development, as early as the third year, a group of international students returned to Europe, although this group of international students because they did not study long enough and did not learn enough, but some theories have been understood.
The most important thing in the so-called science is the correct theory, with the right theory, and then through continuous experiments, the complete technology can finally be obtained, so this first batch of returning international students, although only in the theoretical aspect, but also enough to support the initial development of their country.
Among them, England is an example. The Queen of England specially approved, invested a lot of money, and after two full years of hard work, finally built the first steam-powered machine in Europe.
Of course, this is only the initial steam-powered machine, and it is huge in size, and there is still a long way to go before it can be truly practical.
However, as long as it is made, it is only a matter of time before the subsequent improvement is made.
England was ambitious, and they immediately saw the hope of building steel warships, and desperately continued to improve the performance of steam-powered machines, hoping that one day they could be loaded on ships.
At the same time, a variety of advanced textile technology, steelmaking and mining technology, etc., a large number of European countries, at the same time, as well as a variety of advanced culture and ancient legends of the Ming Dynasty have also been transmitted to European countries.
Railways, power stations, cement firing, glass firing, and other theories were also brought to European countries, and countries began to experiment with these advanced technologies.
Of course, they are too far behind Daming, even if they know the theory, they have no way to build any railroad independently, and the construction of the railway is secondary, the most important thing is to drive the train to run on the railway and the locomotive, which can only be done by the development of steam-powered machines to a certain extent, even if England, which was the first to manufacture the initial steam-powered machine, wants to build even the worst locomotive, it will take at least nearly ten years.
The same is true for power stations, some European countries that are ahead of the curve can also make a little bit of electricity through the advanced theories learned from the Ming Dynasty, but such a behemoth as the power station is not something they can make in a short period of time, and it also needs at least nearly ten years of continuous improvement.
If they want to get on the railroad quickly or build a power station that can generate a lot of electricity, they have only one way to go, and that is to ask Daming to help them build their first railway and their first power station.
This kind of mutually beneficial thing, of course, Daming will not refuse, but Daming has offered a high price, and also has to own the shares of the railway and power station built for a certain number of years, and even as long as the shares are given more, Daming can provide some financial loans for countries in addition to technology.
There is a part of the Ming to provide a part of the funds, although it is to pay more shares, but countries only need to contribute a small part of the funds to be able to obtain their own railways and power stations, no matter how it is worth it, the countries naturally have no objection, are happy to accept the Ming proposal.
Immediately, the European powers, mainly Holy Rome, England, Spain, France, Austria and other countries, began to build their first railways and the first power stations.
After having railways and power stations, plus buying a large number of high-tech parts from Daming, etc.
The whole of Europe has ushered in a tremendous development, which appears to be vibrant and fast-growing economically. Because of advanced technology, all kinds of materials continue to flood the market, and bring about population development.
In just a few years, the European continent has ushered in tremendous changes, and half a foot has stepped into the development of the first industrialization, just like the Ming Dynasty nearly 30 years ago.
At the same time, because a large number of technologies and commodities are exported to Europe, Daming has also continued to harvest a lot of wealth, which is also accelerating the development of Daming.
Today's Ming has a population of more than 700 million, and the territory is huge, the market is also huge, although European countries have ushered in a huge period of development, but compared with the Ming Dynasty, they are still too much behind, not an order of magnitude at all.
Countries have lagged behind the Ming Dynasty for at least 30 years, and even if they develop rapidly, they will lag behind the Ming Dynasty more and more because of their small territory, small population, and limited market restrictions.
Daming occupies such a huge territory and countless resources within the territory, and occupies an absolute innate advantage, so Daming does not care about the rapid development of European countries, after all, this is also an opportunity provided by Daming, and European countries have such development.
In addition to the development of the economy and population, it is also developing in various fields.
