When Wang Zhengzhi returned home, it was already dark, and before he got up on the second day, the three Jin merchants had already sent the deed of the shop to Wang Zhengzhi's mansion.

Rao is Wang Zhengzhi is used to seeing all kinds of characters in the officialdom, and he can't help but admire the decisiveness of the three major Jin merchants, and even have some surprises.

Not to mention the three major Jin merchants, it was some officials in the court who gave others hundreds of taels of silver for no reason, and they couldn't sleep for a few days.

The three major Jin merchants sent out the family business of Wang Dayu, a great Jin merchant, and just finished talking about it last night, and today he sent all the land deeds over.

This decisiveness, which did not drag the mud and water, really opened Wang Zhengzhi's eyes, thinking that if they were officials in the court, they would at least be able to achieve the position of the sixth squire.

Wang Zhengzhi had such a large amount of land title deed in his hand out of thin air, and then he began to operate, with the help of all the family property of a big Jin businessman, he began to operate the seven gentlemen of the Donglin Party.

Wang Zhengzhi first asked the celebrities in the capital to advocate for him, first to build up his reputation, and then began to throw a lot of money to those backbones of the Donglin Party.

Half a month later.

After Wang Zhengzhi's own operation, he is already fifty or sixty percent sure that he can become one of the seven gentlemen of the Donglin Party, and he should be eighty or ninety percent sure in another month or two of operation.

During this time, Zhu Yu led the industrial expeditionary force to begin to intensively control the drought situation, and the first thing to do was to clear the land.

For all dynasties, even if officials were sent to the central court to go to the place, the land of Qingzhang was over.

Zhu Yu, the governor of Tianjin Prefecture, only took less than ten days to clear all the land.

The biggest reason for this is that with the experience of land reform in Miyun County, many things know how to do it, and it is easier to do it.

There are also a large number of experienced land reform talents to help, and it only took about ten efforts to measure the land on the surface of Tianjin Prefecture.

The number is far more than 100,000 acres.

It turned out to be 400,000 acres.

After Zhu Yu learned the news, he immediately sent it to his eldest brother and decided on the general direction of the industrial expeditionary force to control the drought this time.

With the current power of the Daming steam engine, combined with a series of efficient canal and trench systems, it can barely irrigate 100,000 acres of land.

The land suddenly swelled to 400,000 mu, and even if all the canals were built with cement, only ten Daming steam engines would not be able to irrigate that much land.

Kyoto University Hall.

The Yamaga's Residence.

Zhu Shun sat on an official hat chair, holding the letter sent by his younger brother Zhu Yu in his hand, glanced at it and handed it to the disciple next to him, Bi Mingjue: "What do you think about this matter?" ”

Bi Mingqi is still dressed in a plain robe, but the dragon and phoenix posture on his body is becoming more and more intense: "Although the disciple is not good at the art of scheming, he also has some superficial opinions. ”

"From the disciple's point of view, we have reached a height and we can't come down no matter how much we think about it, so the plan for now is to find a way to solve this problem.

"From this incident, it can be seen that the Donglin Party is quite wary of the industrial faction, and it is not enough to falsely report 50,000 mu, and there is actually another 400,000 mu hidden behind."

"According to the idea of the Donglin Party, this is already foolproof, and it is indeed foolproof, but ......"

Speaking of this, Bi Mingqi suddenly laughed, looking very noble and modest: "They obviously use the current worldview to calculate the future worldview. ”

Zhu Shun saw that the sixth disciple Bi Mingqi had grown so much, and that he could have such a profound insight, the most important thing was that his understanding of Mao's thought had reached a very deep level.

I couldn't help but show a gentle smile, and I was quite satisfied.

Although the sixth disciple Bi Mingjue said this sentence is more difficult to understand, his meaning is obvious, to put it bluntly, it is to use the thoughts of the ancients to think about the practices of modern people.

This obviously doesn't work, no matter how the Donglin Party thinks, it will never understand how many descendants modern people have.

Because the two sides are one era apart.

An industrial age.

Zhu Shun stood up, the disciple who was standing there with his waist straight, immediately bowed his waist respectfully: "Your idea is very good, and the only solution now is only a little bit." ”

"That is to invent the high-pressure steam engine, as long as there is a high-pressure steam engine, let alone 400,000 acres of fertile land, even 500,000 acres can be irrigated for it."

The master and apprentice unified their views, so they were not stunned here, and everything went to Daming Mechanical College.

Daming Mechanical Institute is not like before, there is only a small courtyard, and now it occupies a large piece of land.

So much so that the hall of Beijing Normal University has also expanded a lot, and now it is impossible to see the end at a glance, and it has expanded more than four or five times.

But compared to the School of Chemical Engineering, the College of Agriculture, etc., established by several other disciples, it is still much smaller, after all, the Daming Mechanical College is different from their situation.

In particular, agricultural colleges require large tracts of land for planting, but mechanical colleges are different.

The most important thing in the School of Mechanical Engineering is that a group of students from the Beijing Normal University Hall get together to draw drawings and discuss the size and thickness of the parts and components of the drawings.

The final finished product is taken to the General Administration of Machinery of Beiping to build, and then modified according to the finished product until it is changed to a satisfactory industrial machinery.

Only a few study rooms were needed, but at Zhu Shun's insistence, a large academy was built in order to stimulate their inspiration.

Zhu Shun and Bi Mingqi came to the library of the Daming Mechanical Institute, which was different from the quiet library in later generations, and there was a fierce debate here.

There are a bunch of students from the Beijing Normal University arguing about the industrial machine tool, there are also students from the Beijing Normal University arguing about military machinery, and there are even a few students from the Beijing Normal University arguing about the steam train.

Zhu Shun and Bi Minggui walked to the southernmost small group of the library, this small group only had twenty or thirty people, but it was a small group led by Bi Mingqi himself.

Basically, the top students of Daming Mechanical College were gathered, all of whom worked together to study the high-pressure steam engine, and strive to upgrade the source power of the industrial revolution as soon as possible.

Zhu Shun walked in, and all the students of Beijing Normal University stopped, and there was a rare silence in the library.

After these students of Daming Mechanical College respectfully saluted, they began to argue again, busy with their respective topics.

Zhu Shun nodded, seemingly satisfied with the academic atmosphere created by Bi Mingjue.

Just nodded lightly, which made Bi Mingjun, who had always been a modest and noble attitude, smile happily.
