After years of continuous improvement and exploration, the main achievements that Nanyue Army can use in vehicles are as follows: solid tires made of vulcanized rubber, fenders for cabin shock absorption, and axles that can be easily steered. Now the new achievement for Li Shouhan is that the axles and wheels that can be disassembled and changed at will.

After repeated calculations by mathematicians and physicists, and careful polishing by craftsmen who are good at making vehicles, people have chosen a good position on the original four-wheeled chassis and reserved the axles.

"Father, if we encounter a bad road situation, our craftsmen who walk with the army will also quickly remove the wheels of the cart and modify it to the predetermined two-wheeled axle position to adapt to the road situation."

In front of him, several apprentice craftsmen began to load and unload the wheels with a few soldiers who had been temporarily recruited from the factory guards, and Li Huashi proudly explained this wonderful design to his father.

Although this place has been replaced by a vehicle factory manufactured by Ha Jing, Li Huashi's efforts here, which are not as great as those made by the military factory to manufacture new firearms. But craftsmen and scholars are very clear that this kind of thing of showing their faces is still necessary to let this young master Huashi, who is enthusiastic about scientific research and technology, come more! Artisans and scientists are not fools either.

"What to do with the extra wheels?"

Li Shouhan stared at the apprentices and pointed at the soldiers who were obviously new hands, opened the bolts, unloaded the axles and wheels, and after watching the whole process, he coldly asked such an abrupt question.

If the unloaded wheel axle is a shameful chicken rib that is tasteless and discarded, and it is a waste of capacity and transportation space to transport it, then the technical upgrade of the vehicle chassis is also a chicken rib.

Li Huashi probably didn't expect his father to ask such a question, and he was a little speechless for a while. There was someone next to him who helped him out: "Back to the lord's words, the extra axles and wheels." In addition to being used as spare parts to prevent damage to vehicles, it can also be used as a material for building fortifications during camping and field battles. ”

Li Shouhan glanced at the young craftsman with approval, he was really smart and confused for a while, how could he forget about the Yuanmen? Even if you forget the allusion to Yuanmen, you should remember how the white-skinned pigs of the North American continent used caravans to march west. Constant invasion of the territory of the Indians.

In ancient times, the emperors patrolled and hunted in the fields, and the car was the domain; In and out of the place, raise two cars, the wheels face each other to indicate the door, called the gate.

"Zhou Li? Heavenly Official? "Palm House": "Set up the car palace and the gate." Zheng Xuan's note: "It is said that the king's stay is a dangerous place, and it is very prepared." The second car is thought to be a domain, and the back car is used to see the door. ”

When the army was dispatched, it was also used as the main component of the construction of the camp. "Liutao? Divide and combine": "The general set up camp and set up a table. "Historical Records? Xiang Yu Benji": "So the Qin army has been broken. Xiang Yu summoned the princes to enter the gate, and they all walked forward on their knees, not daring to look up. "In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, among the descriptions of the generals of Eastern Wu, the most wonderful one is the robbery of the Wei camp by Gan Ning's hundred horsemen." 100 white goose feathers, inserted into the helmet as a number; They all put on armor and got on their horses, galloped to the edge of Cao Cao's village, and pulled out the antlers. Shout and fight your way into the village. rushed to the Chinese army to kill Cao Cao. It turned out that the Chinese soldiers and horses were ambushed by chariots and passed through the company, surrounded by iron barrels, and could not enter. "If it weren't for the fortifications built by these vehicles, there might have been another spectacular spectacle of cutting off beards and robes.

"That's right, on wheels. The vehicle is behind, and the people and horses live behind the car to release the cannon, which is quite a secret combination of the method of the predecessor's car camp. What is your name? ”

"Back to the lord, my surname is Lei, and the grass word is in the field."

"Surname Lei?" Li Shouhan carefully examined the outline of the craftsman's face. vaguely acquainted, "Who are you Lei Mingsheng?" ”

"It's my grandfather."

"Sure enough! How is your grandfather? This Lei Xingtian can also be regarded as a descendant of the deceased, and Li Shouhan immediately felt different. When he asked about Lei Mingsheng's situation.

"My grandfather is retired at home. Every day, he teased a few younger siblings for fun, and from time to time he told us juniors about the past when he was under the master. I was admitted to the craftsman last year, and he was also quite honored, saying that my Lei family is also a successor. ”

Sure enough, the years are not forgiving, and the men in the prime of life have now retired and gone home. Those who are old are even more old and withered, and they are gone one by one. Thinking of this, Li Shouhan didn't feel quite embarrassed.

"When you come home, bring a message to your grandfather for me. First, I asked him, I'm afraid he should celebrate his 60th birthday this year, right? Remember to send me a post when the time comes. The second is to ask him, if his body is still good, he will come out to do things happily, don't always tease the child at home, there are things he likes, and there are things he has struggled for all his life. He couldn't bear to leave it aside? ”

With a gun and a stick, but with affectionate words, Dere Xingtian's cheeks were red, "What the lord said!" When I go back tonight, I tell my grandfather to come out and do something for my lord!" ”

"Wrong, wrong. It's not for me. It is for him to do things for himself, and to do things for us in Nanzhong. ”

Speaking of this, Li Shouhan turned his head and educated his son: "Our Nanyue Army can have today, you Laozi and I can go step by step from a garrison to the status of today's feudal prince, not by virtue of education, but by the bloody struggle of the soldiers, the hard work of the peasants, the sweat and wisdom of the craftsmen and craftsmen, and the knowledge and theory of the scholars. Since you are interested in this, then you have to put down the shelf of the child-in-law and roll with them. ”

"Yes! The combination of two ginseng, one change and three combinations proposed by the father has always been regarded as the guideline. The gentlemen from the school and the lab also praised this method as the fastest way to turn their designs into reality. ”

Hearing that His Royal Highness the Duke compared his contribution to his great army, he couldn't help but feel quite excited and excited by Pascal, Torricelli and others, who had been standing consciously from afar as guests. These people had come here at the invitation of friends to escape war or religious persecution. Here, there was no war, no inquisition for all sorts of strange ideas put forward by the Inquisition, there was only a rich and sufficient material base, a relaxed environment for scientific research, and an almost frenzied investment in scientific research. I thought that those yellow and white gold coins and silver dollars were consumed by my crazy thoughts, although there was no idea of embezzling scientific research funds. But these people can't help but be a little frightened.

However, once their scientific research results have been verified, they can manufacture products in the factory, or theoretical technologies that have been tested in practice, once the products are officially put into production, they occupy the market. Or if it is extended to the vast territory under the jurisdiction of His Royal Highness the Duke, then what awaits them will be a more extravagant and corrupt lifestyle than that of the royal families of Europe.

For each technology, the relevant workshops or institutions of the Nanyue Army will pay them a fee. According to His Royal Highness the Duke, this is the patent, the inevitable driving force for the transformation of science and technology into productive forces. As for the effect, although they did not count it in detail, just look at the orders of the Caspian Sea in the factory, and the goods carried away by the ships in the port. You know how big their technology market is.

Galileo and others are their founding fathers and role models.

Galileo, who was almost burned at the stake by the Templars, now holds the position of lifelong president of Nanzhong University, director of the Craftsmen's Association, and lifelong president of the research institute. Every day, in his Mediterranean-style mansion, he lived much more comfortably than the kings of Europe.

There is a way to learn from it.

Pascal and others are also actively transforming their academic achievements into productivity. Pascal, who is good at calculating pressure and using pressure, added a panel to the upper and lower ends of the spring that has been popularized in Nanzhong in his spare time. An epoch-making spring chair was made.

This little game was discovered by Salt Mei'er. When he ordered someone to buy a patent from Pascal. However, Pascal, a young Frenchman, was no worse in business than the Jews. When even the people who came said that since the Duchess was optimistic, then she would use it. Just tip a little usage fee.

How could Yan Mei'er take advantage of him? This point was indeed touched by Pascal. Hearing what he meant, Yan Mei'er couldn't help but smile. "It's okay, in the future, every object that uses his small technology will give him one percent of the profit!"

One percent, that doesn't sound like much. But if. If you look at the use of this spring, you will find that Yan Meier is really kind-hearted.

In all towns, brigades, regiments, the fleet's hospital ships, all the health vehicles, and in the hospitals of each town, new beds made of springs were placed in the hospitals of the towns, so that the sick could lie more comfortably. Among the mansions, box-spring beds and box-spring chairs have also caused a new wave of fashion. It is a few courtyards far away by the Qinhuai River and the Slender West Lake, which have also been placed with spring beds and spring chairs by Professor Lin Kunlin at no cost, so that the guests who come to play are more comfortable.

Sure enough, the wide spring bed made the guests feel like falling into the clouds, coupled with the girl's coquettish voice, which made them feel that at this time, Emperor Chongzhen in Beijing would come to change positions with him, and he would not agree!

On the one hand, there are staggering amounts of government and military purchases, and on the other hand, there are ridiculously high luxury goods for the wealthy, and the number of silver dollars in Pascal's pocket is constantly growing.

However, compared to Descartes and Torricelli, Pascal was nothing more than a drop in the bucket at this time.

These two masters have a fight with Cai Lun's achievements in papermaking! They used the original sewing machine that could only be used to sew sails, tarpaulin, and processing bulky and bulky textiles such as gun clothes for some years, and combined the achievements of Nanzhong in the fields of metallurgy and machinery manufacturing, and upgraded it into a sewing machine with modern significance that can sew clothes. Proficient in mechanical manufacturing, Torrey Divili, who was born as an apprentice at the bottom, carefully dismantled and reverse-mapped the sewing machines that were widely used in the market in Nanzhong, and at the same time understood the working principle, re-optimized and redesigned the layout after improving the originally cumbersome parts.

Descartes then helped his friend to take his design to the next level, making it smaller and more functional. In addition, the manganese steel, the purification place of Nanzhong Metallurgy, was made into a large head needle by the skilled craftsmen made by Ha Jing. This time, the sewing needle, which was originally the most core component and had to rely on volume and weight to work normally, was like a Ruyi golden hoop stick, which changed from a huge Dinghaishen needle to an embroidery needle.

The two guys took a closer look at the pedal pedal and gained momentum through the pedal. The entire process of transmitting power to individual components using a cow belt. Mechanical and mechanical calculations were carefully carried out.

Although it can only be sewn cotton armor, military uniforms, leggings, belts, headscarves and other objects that do not require a high technical level and do not pursue color and pattern embroidery, it is also strong in large quantities and high efficiency.

Every day, large and small vehicles in front of each garment factory are constantly unloading bundles of dyed cotton cloth, and loading and transporting processed cotton armor, military uniforms, and bandanas of various colors. Those sewing girls don't stop with their hands and feet. The cut fabric is sewn into the armor according to the design requirements. In addition to the agreed basic salary and food expenses, their work salaries are directly linked to the qualified products processed and produced, and at the same time, overtime pay must be paid.

The economic base determines the superstructure, and these sewing girls make no less money than men because of their own money, and some of them are even more skilled than men, and their status in the family is also rising. Some old gentlemen couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh when they saw their wives walking on the road with their heads held high in front, and their husbands followed closely behind with vegetables, fruits, and vegetables.

As for the source of all this, Descartes and Torricelli earned from it how much technology royalties they made. I'm afraid that only the two of them know.

On the way back to his home, Li Shouhan heard similar complaints, but he could only smile bitterly. This kind of technological innovation brings about social change that cannot be prevented by any executive order or law.

As a competent ruler, he can only be like a cooper who fills in the other shortcomings of the bucket that looks awkward because of the growth of a plank, rather than cutting off the long board to keep it short.

However, it is necessary to make up for the shortcomings. There are many aspects and links involved. In terms of production, the efficiency of garment factories has improved. The amount of cloth needed is several times greater. Then, the textile mill should increase the number of production and find a way to solve the supply of raw materials, that is, cotton. The same is true for printing and dyeing fields, which should be as efficient as possible. In terms of technology, a large number of sewing machines have been put on the market, eliminating the original models. Cow belts, which are used as transmission power, have become raw materials in short supply. (In fact, there were originally a large number of cattle farms in various parts of Nanzhong to supply beef and cowhides, but now the new army is being expanded in various places, and the orders for various cowhide equipment are also painful and happy for the owners of leather dealers.) How can you still have the spare energy to meet the belt needs of the sewing machine? ）

The introduction of new machinery and equipment has increased efficiency, but it has also squeezed out jobs. Many of them were squeezed out of the workshop by the sewing machine, returned to their homes to work as housewives, or worked in small tailor shops in the streets and alleys.

Shang Feng and Yin Lei, who had just received two good new guns, and had also received Li Shouhan's promise to supply weapons and armor, patted their chests and said that the supply of cowhides, horns, and tendons would be handed over to them in the future. On the grasslands of the Fuso Continent, the herds of bison run like dark clouds. Just enough time for the sons to practice with their newly obtained sharp blades and arrows, hunting bison, not only can they eat beef, but also get cowhides, horns, tendons and other things that their hometowns need, but also free up grass to raise horses, so that they can run faster!

If it weren't for their generous statements, Li Shouhan would have had to think carefully about whether to let Long Shengxing come back through trade with Liaodong in exchange for some cowhides and other things. As a result, the sources of raw materials are diversified, even though they are separated by oceans. Don't worry about being hindered after the war with the Liao thieves.

Cotton, wheat and other strategic materials are barely able to meet the needs of Tianzhu for the time being, and as the Ottoman Empire, Koplulu also patted his chest and expressed his willingness to turn the entire Nile Delta into wheat and cotton fields for trade with Nanzhong.

In the field of steel and military manufacturing, after a few days of inspection, Li Shouhan can be regarded as having a clear base for his steel supply and military production capacity. With food in his hands, he did not panic, and as a commander, he knew the bottom of his military supply capacity, and he was more confident before he was about to start a war.

Regardless of how the war goes, it must be invincible from the start. This is the most true and determined thought in Li Shouhan's heart.

After inspecting in the past few days, what satisfied him the most was Li Huashi's scientific research achievements and his almost crazy pursuit and study of technology. Therefore, there is a special courtesy to Li Huashi's mother and son at the family banquet tonight.

"Mei'er, you single-handedly raise these children in our family, and when one grows up, one will fly away from you. Today, Huashi also has hardened wings. and he will fly in his world. Will I take him away from you, willing? Although he is the head of the family, Li Shouhan still consciously respects the opinions of Yan Meier and the child's biological mother when he encounters things involving his children.

"Mita, I'm going to send an errand for your son, what do you think?" After talking to Yan Mei'er. Li Shouhan turned his gaze to Li Huashi's biological mother Ashmita, who had been wiping her tears and had been excited by her son's achievements, and was speechless with excitement, just nodded vigorously.

"There's nothing going on in the house right now, you might as well take the maid and let Huashi accompany you, and take advantage of the good weather to go back to Telugu for a walk. Since you married into the mansion, you have never had a return to Ning. Now it's just right to let Hua Shi follow you to see his maternal grandfather's relatives. Look at where his mother grew up, too. ”

What's going on today? Did the gods really open their eyes and see me? Heard my most devout prayer every day? Ashmita was suddenly dizzy by the ensuing happiness and went back to her parents' home to visit relatives? How could such a good thing fall on her head of a high-class gift that was basically a gift from Telugu to Lee Shouhan?

Although Nanzhong and Tianzhu face each other across the sea, if she wants to go back to her hometown in Telugu, she will have to use a sea ship thousands of miles away, how can she waste a sea ship to give her a concubine whose status is stronger than that of a female slave? Her son Li Huashi is sixteen years old, and according to the rules of Li Shouhan's family, children, especially sons. If the fifteen-year-old doesn't have any errands on him, he basically belongs to an idle eater. This kind of character is to be strongly despised in the house. It's unfortunate. Li Huashi was addicted to technology, and this contempt was unaware of himself, and it was all borne by his biological mother, Ashmita.

However, the tiles also have a turnaround day! Today, in the eyes of everyone, the son is finally not the waste who only knows how to draw, calculate, and waste money. It has also been approved and favored by Grandpa Guo. A mother is more precious than a son, and Ashmita also has a moment to enjoy the glory and status that her son brings her.

However, there are happy and unhappy. Li Muhua, who has been idle by Li Shouhan for a period of time, is an unhappy person. Watching coldly, her heart is like a pot of hot oil, cooking her heart.

Since the other day. If the return of the fleet of the chief of the waterway brings the situation of Yin Shang's hometown, this mansion will be secretly turbulent. All sorts of people and others will seek some advantage for themselves in the wasteland thousands of miles away.

After so many years, everyone has long seen clearly that the more so-called wild and smoky land is, the easier it is to be beneficial. Not to mention the specialties of various places, as well as those mines and timber, but as far as the land is concerned, it is often counted in thousands of miles. Moreover, these smoky and wild places can be said to be a blank piece of paper, just scribble and draw, and if you get it right, it will be your grades, and no matter how messy it is, it won't mess up there. It is precisely because of its remoteness and wilderness that it is easier to be noticed by the lord, and the so-called Jane is in the emperor's heart.

If Li Shouhan immediately appointed Xu Huanshan as the governor, I am afraid that this competition will continue openly and secretly. However, although the fighting in the court has ceased for the time being, the fighting among the women in the palace is in full swing. They all want to follow the precedent of Li Huayu, Li Huabao, Li Huaxuan and others, and send their sons to Fusang's hometown, even if they can't lay the foundation for their sons to inherit the family business, they are also an excellent place for their sons and themselves to earn a good life.

However, what Li Shouhan did today was to praise Li Huashi, and to promote the position of his biological mother Ashmita, not to mention that he could go back to his mother's house to see if he had nothing to do now, could it be that he wanted to assign that vast land to Li Huashi, an idiot?

According to Li Muhua's inner thoughts, what ten states, what Yin Shang land, all of them are Li Huayu's younger brothers who will control in the future, the younger brothers control the vast land outside, and the eldest brother can sit on the throne safely in the court. When she speaks of her brother, she is referring only to her own son.

The lightning and flint's thoughts were flurry, but he could hear such words in his ears.

"Mei'er, go back and allocate five million yuan from the inner account room to make a separate accounting account. This money will be our Nanzhong scientific research fund in the future. Huashi, you like these things by nature, and your father will not stop you. You go to the graduate school and the university, and you go to the workshop. Together with those masters and gentlemen, as the representative of our family's fund. As long as you have the right technology or theory, you just have to invest money in it. If you lose, your mother will make a profit, and you will mention a share, and the rest will be returned to the fund as a surplus. ”

Being able to get the approval of his father, and being able to do what he likes casually in the future, how can this not make Li Huashi very excited. Although he is addicted to technology, he is not a pure nerd who is ignorant of the world, and even kowtows to thank his father.

"The son must be a good representative in accordance with the combination of two counseling, one change and three proposed by his father."

"You've done a great job, just keep it up. That new gun is the product of your implementation of this principle. Li Shouhan first affirmed Li Huashi's achievements, and then put forward a little requirement, which can also be said to be a technical goal.

"You've also seen the railroad carriage, the same horse, walking on a track and walking on a normal road surface, the weight and distance of the load are different. So, can you also put the gun tube on the track, so that the projectile car can fly farther and hit more accurately under the same force? ”

Li Shouhan began to inspire his son. (To be continued.) )
