Chapter 623: Negotiation Failed

Tao Jiefu said again: "Hurry up, quickly bring the weapons made by the new process to the old man to see?" ”

Gao Fangping opened his eyes and said blindly, shook his hand and said, "No, no, no, Xiangye misunderstood, how can there be any weapons." Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 infoWe are operating a new farm tool line. After all, the official family is wise, and he has always disliked military affairs, and farming is the right way......"

Before he could finish speaking, he was slapped on the back of Tao Jiefu's head.

"You know that if you open your eyes and talk blindly, my youngest son will learn this from you." Tao Jiefu pointed to the set of sand molds that he didn't have time to clean up and said: "This is a mold, my son loves to tinker with these things, do you think the old man doesn't understand?" In addition, the shape of this mold, no matter how you look at it, is a cast knife, you dare to pull the calf and say that it is a farm tool to the old man, and the old man has never used a knife? When the old man led the troops to fight, you were still playing with and urine under the protection of Gao Yu Lao'er. ”

Gao Fangping had to say embarrassedly: "Xiangye is mighty, when you say this, the little nephew really remembers, he did accidentally make some weapons or something......

"Less nonsense, take it out and see." Tao Jiefu interrupted.

So, Gao Fangping had just been holding the standard weapon for the experiment, so he took it.

The second phase of treatment has not been carried out, so it has not been opened, and it looks very ugly, like tatters.

Lao Tao frowned. However, he frowned not because it was ugly, but because after feeling it in his hand, as an expert, Lao Tao certainly knew that it was much lighter than ordinary forbidden army weapons. Seems to cut corners?

"Just this garbage, you dare to say that your manufacturing process is awesome, in other words, it's not a secret that you Gao Fangping want to devour military spending, but you look good at eating, cutting corners to this point, so light, you are not afraid of being poked in the back?" Lao Tao said as he danced with hula and hula.

immediately scared away a group of people, including Gao Fangping, for fear of being injured by mistake. He's wearing armor, and no one else is wearing it.

Gao Fangping hid behind Liang Hongying and said worriedly: "Xiangye, be careful, don't flash your waist." ”

"Nonsense, you were still playing at home when the old man led the troops to fight, how did you hurt the old man in a small scene, hey......"

As he spoke, Lao Tao threw the knife and crawled on the wall with his waist covered. But then he put this responsibility on the head of the "pocket watch" on his chest. Saying that a pocket watch upsets the balance.

"Why are you still stunned, why don't you send Xiangye's daughter's body to the Tai Hospital, and wait to receive the reward?" Gao Fangping hurriedly said.

"Go away, go away, this little thing can't hurt the old man." Tao Jiefu still didn't plan to leave, took off the wall clock, temporarily hung it on Gao Fangping's neck, and said: "Send it to the house tomorrow and return it to the old man, and help the old man hold it for the time being." ”

Then, Lao Tao pulled out the knife on his waist, selected a strong man on the scene and said: "You are responsible for using the old man's knife to fight with this knife, so that the old man can watch the performance." ”

Lao Tao's knife is not a treasure knife, it is very old, like a cultural relic, and there are many gaps. I heard that he carried this knife all day long, saying that it was an ordinary standard weapon that followed him to fight in the north and south.

Ding Ding Ding -

The test chop began, and for a moment sparks flew around.

In the end, it stopped at some point, and there were a lot of gaps between them, but compared to down, of course, Gao Fangping's weapons were more gaps, and Tao Jiefu's was even less.

Others felt a little shameless, but Lao Tao was already half open.

Although the old pottery is not a treasure knife, it is an old weapon produced in the old past, when the bureaucracy was relatively honest, and the special model for officers, the materials and forging technology are very sufficient, which can be compared with these defective products of the faΓ§ade now.

In Lao Tao's view, the young profiteers now are much worse than before, and the officials are much more ugly than before. The degree of cutting corners is naturally much more serious than before, which may be due to Cai Jing.

But what shocked me was that Gao Fangping's weapons seemed to be lighter than those of other profiteers, and they cut corners, but they were "weapons of conscience for officers" whose performance had caught up with those of the old period.

"This ......" Tao Jiefu returned to his senses after a long time and said: "What kind of truth is it, you have to tell the old man about it." ”

Gao Fangping said: "This is the awesomeness of the new material, so this is the reason why the lower officials are cautious and strictly enforce the confidentiality system." ”

Tao Jiefu nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, if this kind of technology falls into the hands of barbarians, my Hanwa will be in danger." ”

Gao Fangping said: "It's not that serious, it's just that the full set of technologies is handed over to them, and they still lack too many places, not that they will have it if they want to build it immediately." Xia Guan just wants to let this technology stay ahead of time and maintain it for a few more years. ”

Speaking of these, Tao Jiefu didn't understand, anyway, he only thought that this was the secret book of the Great Song Dynasty, and it would be over if it was leaked, so he once again issued a strict order to strengthen management, saying that this had been listed as the most military secret of the Great Song Dynasty. Without the approval of him and Uncle Zhang, no one from the military department could come in to observe.

Then, Tao Jiefu licked his lips and said: "Xiao Gao, you tell the old man, this new material and new process, in addition to the fact that it can make weapons, can the chain mail on the old man's body be made?" ”

Gao Fangping thought for a while and said, "Yes, you can modify the production line and match it slowly." After the production line is formed, the process of the workers is familiar with it, and the casting method is adopted, even if it is a new material, the cost will be lower than that of the lean chain mail, but the output will be much larger. ”

Tao Jiefu was even more excited. After thinking about it psychologically, the Yongle Army's heavy riding and dressing lasted for more than a year, and it burned countless money, so he asked: "How much can the output be increased?" ”

Gao Fangping said: "Hui Xiangye, it is preliminarily estimated that under the premise of investing the same amount of manpower and material resources, and on the premise that the performance does not lose too much, the visual cost will drop by four layers, and the output can be increased by four layers." ”

"That's amazing!" Tao Jiefu exclaimed.

Gao Fangping said with a smile: "This is still now." At present, the Jiangnan Shipbuilding Engineering Institute is leading the steam engine under the leadership of your youngest son. If the turbine is successfully tested and officially applied, the thermal energy can be converted into kinetic energy, and there are many places in the entire production process at that time, the mechanical energy can be replaced, and the output can be expected to triple without increasing the cost. ”

After a pause, he said: "This is a snowball process, a large number of engine orders, will inevitably trigger the progress of process and efficiency, reduce the cost of the engine, and continue to promote the further expansion of armament production capacity, the cost is greatly reduced." Give the kid ten to fifteen years. The kid vouched with his head that I, Da Song, would be able to withstand the pressure of a simultaneous war against the whole world. ”

Tao Jiefu almost fell to the ground when he couldn't stand on his feet.

This is a fantasy subversion, which is different from all traditional warfare. It's completely bigger than anyone's haze and whose chimney is crazy.

If this is the case, at that time, Tao Jiefu felt that what to do, and then go to the front line to lead the troops, to experience the kind of battlefield where hundreds of thousands of people are reloaded together, it is clearly a bulldozer.

It was really the Han family marshals who were beaten out of the shadow in their hearts by the barbarians, and there was no one who didn't dream of that kind of scene. It is true that the Great Song Dynasty did not have cavalry, and the heavy infantry armor was born for this purpose, but limited to productivity, the Great Song Dynasty had so many troops, but there were less than 2,000 infantry armor in service. The performance is not very good, and it is a gold-swallowing monster, at least the price from the factory of the Ministry of War, which can scare the ministers of the household department to death, and by the way, the father of Gao Yu is also scared to death.

"Subverted!" Tao Jiefu's face turned pale and said, "If you want to make a set of officer equipment in my military department, it takes dozens of people, dozens of processes, and more than ten days." There is no need to count on the equipment of ordinary sergeants, the efficiency is low, the price is expensive, and the equipment of hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops at the moment is the result of a hundred years of accumulation in the Great Song Dynasty. If it is carried out according to your Xiao Gao's vision, doesn't that mean that we are all outdated, as long as it takes eight to ten years, you can use the military budget lower than the current to complete the entire outfit? ”

Gao Fangping hugged his fists and said, "Yes, I can." But there is a premise that I have not been caught by those villains who are attached to the interests of the Ministry of War, and secondly, the steam engine project led by your child will not be harassed by anyone until it succeeds. Otherwise, the old men will wash their ass and wait to be turned over by the barbarians. ”

"The old man is still strange about this group of killers in the military department, they are panicking for a while, what are they making a fuss!" Tao Jiefu realized it later, and said with his beard, "It turns out that it is still a matter of money, and he dares to destroy innovation and progress for the sake of money. ”

Gao Fangping didn't know if he was really stupid or pretending to be stupid, most likely he was pretending to be stupid, so he hugged his fists and said: "Xiangye is angry." We have to have the object of the complaint, and the lower official dares to ask who you want to sue? ”

"This ......," Tao Jiefu thought as he read his beard in a cunning manner.

It seems that Lao Tao is really pretending to be stupid, and deliberately dispels Gao Fangping's idea of biting people and selling his believability in this way.

This shows that there are too many people who are currently carving up the chain of interests in military spending, and the volume is too large. Tao Jiefu didn't want to meddle in this bite at all.

Gao Fangping smiled again: "Xiangye's meaning is understood. At the moment, you can't easily reform, the official doesn't like military affairs, and asking him to mention these issues is to find a draw. Therefore, the lower officials did not seek to purge them, nor did they seek to go to war with them. Xia Guan only hopes to participate as a competitor and get a part of the small order with them. Since it is not a rush to grab territory, it is necessary for Xiangye to take the lead. ”

Tao Jiefu thought for a while and said with a smile: "From the standpoint of the old man and the uncle, the imperial court must spend so much military spending. A pack of wild dogs is waiting for a share, always to be given out. Then the theory allocates a certain percentage to you, as long as it is a small amount, and you promise not to fight them further up to this point, so that there should be no war. ”

After a pause, Tao Jiefu shook his head and said: "But in the end, I want to reject you, not that the old man needs these economic benefits, but that this issue is too sensitive and can easily bring about political turmoil." In addition, the most worrying thing about the old man is that you are crazy, there are too many criminal records, and no one believes that your pork will be gentle and only want a little order. Everyone knows that appetites will be amplified. So let's wash and sleep for a while, it's definitely a minefield. ”

At this point, Gao Fangping was depressed, Lao Tao was treacherous, and he didn't let go even if he was moved. In fact, this time Gao Fangping deliberately released the news to let Lao Tao hear the "new weapon", thus attracting him to onlookers.

The purpose is to let Tao Jiefu, a prime minister who really understands armaments, come forward to deal with it, and as long as a small part of the interests should be discussed, he doesn't want to hit a wall.

Now it's a big problem.

If you have this part of the order for production, you can quickly reduce the cost of new materials. The most important thing is that Gao Fangping's command has successfully maintained the "armament production line", and has always maintained the activation state of this model and the structure of the technical backbone. When necessary, expand the production line, the extensive explosion of production capacity will be very fast, will not be blind, and there will be no short-term civilian to military production capacity madness and mistakes.

However, it seems that this plan has to think of another way, this matter cannot be discussed with the emperor, and can only start with Tao Jiefu......
