Zhu Cijiong is very busy now, since the end of the year, he began to plan the Ming Dynasty's Zhongxing cause, up to the appointment of the imperial court, down to the process of Wang Gong's factory new flintlock pistol production, everything related to the cause of Zhongxing he has to work hard.

There is no way, what he wants to build is a quasi-modern military power, and no minister in the DPRK and China has any experience in this regard, let alone a modern military industrial system, even simple business operations, and even factory management, they don't know. In the words of modern people, they all graduated from college at home, and their minds are full of agricultural ideas, only Zhu Cijiong graduated from a regular university and has a certain understanding of modern military knowledge, so he has to participate in everything, otherwise they are likely to be unrecognizable.

Of course, in order to make a country from weakness to prosperity, it is not enough to have thoughts, but also to act, and Zhu Cijiong alone cannot act, everyone in the court must mobilize and work together to realize this great dream.

To let all the ministers work together, he, the emperor, naturally has to set an example, so every morning is inevitable, whether it is cold or wind and rain, we must insist.

He is now accustomed to getting up at four o'clock in the morning, and he is no longer silent when he goes to court, and he is usually answering the questions raised by the ministers, and Zhu Youzhen has become a stuffy gourd.

There are many people who speculate that Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen is a person with a strong desire for power, in fact, this speculation has no basis at all, when he was in the Apocalypse Dynasty, he was honestly his king of letters, staying in the Ten Kings' Mansion all day long, and didn't care about anything, if he had a strong desire for power, would he be so honest? The back was also forced, the Emperor of the Apocalypse was hanging, and he was left with the orthodox bloodline of the royal family, and he was not on anyone's side. As for his later governance methods, it can only be said that he is a little paranoid, and it has little to do with the desire for power.

Okay, let's get down to business. Zhu Youzhen is actually a very serious and responsible person, he has never delayed such a tedious thing as reviewing the folds, no matter how many folds there are in a day, he will review them on the same day, and he will never procrastinate. This also made Zhu Cijiong worry a lot, at least he didn't have to worry about the most workload-intensive thing, and he could save a lot of time to do something else.

Like now, he is obsessed with fitness, of course, this fitness should be called martial arts in the Ming Dynasty, since he saw Qin Mingyue's peerless swordsmanship, he has become obsessed with martial arts. After returning to the palace, he stubbornly asked Qin Mingyue to teach him martial arts, it just so happened that Zheng Sen was also a martial arts enthusiast, the two of them stuck to Qin Mingyue for a day, and they wanted to learn martial arts in life and death, Qin Mingyue had no choice but to agree.

Different from Wudang and Shaolin, Emei's basic exercises are not standing on horses or meditating but moving piles, that is, the so-called "twelve piles of moving power": heaven, earth, heart, dragon, crane, wind, clouds, big, small, secluded, and underworld, supplemented by Emei's internal gong heart method, walking back and forth on wooden or stone piles in order to practice internal strength. Therefore, the martial arts of the Emei faction are sensitive, delicate, rigid and soft, all of which are practiced on moving piles.

Qin Mingyue can be said to be a rare martial arts wizard in a hundred years, so she is strong in martial arts at a young age, and even Cao Huachun is not necessarily her opponent, Qin Yiming and Qin Gongming The two brothers are estimated to be unable to beat her combined. With this kind of master teaching, it is also a rare opportunity for people who practice martial arts, but our little emperor is really not the material for practicing martial arts, a simple plum blossom pile he has practiced for nearly a month has never been proficient, often falls dizzy, even the little royal brother Zheng Sen is stronger than him, at least people will not fall.

In Qin Mingyue's words, with Zheng Sen's qualifications, he can become a small success after more than ten years of hard work, and as for the emperor, after practicing for twenty or thirty years, he may be able to reach the current level of the two brothers, Qin Yiming and Qin Gongming.

Fortunately, Zhu Cijiong doesn't want to become a master who can catch bullets like Dongfang Undefeated, he just wants to strengthen his body and prolong his life, Daming is not an empire that never sets in one or two decades, to dominate the world, it is impossible to achieve it in a few decades, Zhu Cijiong doesn't want to sing again: I really want to live for another five hundred years!

After Zhu Cijiong taught a series of methods to improve the output and quality, he personally took the lead in improving the process of each part of the flintlock pistol, and added a lot of special machine tools, and finally increased the output of the flintlock pistol to about 20,000 pieces per month.

He promised Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting to send them 10,000 flintlock pistols every month, and the Tianxiong Army and the Qin Army first allocated 40,000 flintlock pistols each before going to suppress the thieves. In the past, it was only possible to produce 10,000 units a month, but when the Tianxiong Army and the Qin Army completed the equipment, the year basically passed; With a monthly output of 20,000 handfuls, the two armies will be able to form combat strength within half a year.

In terms of land acquisition and demolition, he not only compensated the residents twice the amount of silver taels, but also rebuilt all the mansions of the original eunuch family into private houses, and bought them at a fair price to those residents who were demolished, so that it was equivalent to giving them a new house and a house for nothing, and they only needed to move.

The residents near Wang Gongchang were naturally overjoyed, and actively cooperated with the work of Jinyiwei, and the demolition involving nearly one-eighth of the size of the inner city was completed in less than a month, and the work efficiency was so high that it was really a bit unexpected by Zhu Cijiong.

Now Zhu Cijiong is summoning Xu Guangqi and Bi Maokang to discuss the plan of the new military factory, and the general plan has almost been decided.

First of all, we must build a large-scale sand casting workshop, gun barrels, bases, shells, grenades, mines can be turned sand casting first, the original casting workshop is not enough at all, the place is not big enough, casting a small part is OK, to cast hundreds of pounds of gun barrels and bases, can not be cast at all.

Then there is a large machine shop to be built, the barrel is a few meters long, and the small machine tool cannot be processed at all, and it must be processed with a large machine tool that has been enlarged and reinforced.

There are hundreds of pounds of things to use lifting equipment, it is unrealistic for people to lift, Zhu Cijiong knows a lot of lifting equipment, what forklifts, aviation cranes, electric hoists, cranes, etc., etc., but the Ming Dynasty has no to buy it at this time!

Thinking about it, he only has to do his own hand-pulled hoist, probably the principle he knows, that is, two sprockets together, the big one is pulled by hand, the small one is used for lifting, the principle of lever is used to lift heavy objects, and a brake device is added to prevent heavy objects from slipping. This thing is complicated for the people of the Ming Dynasty, fortunately, the pulley began to be used in the Spring and Autumn Period, this hoist is actually a pulley group with teeth, and it is not very difficult to explain to them, and it is complicated to process.

Such a small thing was dismantled, dismantled, and tossed more than ten times, and it took Xu Guangqi and Bi Maokang more than a month to make it, and this is still a simplified version, which can only hang a few hundred catties of things, and it can't be pulled if it is a thousand, and many parts in it are deformed. This is mainly a matter of material, there is no high-quality alloy in the Ming Dynasty, the highest hardness is the quenched high-carbon steel, high-quality alloy is not a moment and a half can be made, the technical content of that thing is too high, even if you know the formula, it is useless, the industrial level of the Ming Dynasty, you can't do it at all. Now I can only make do with it, a few hundred catties are a few hundred catties, and a few gourds are used to hang a thousand catties, which is more reliable than people to lift.

In addition, it is necessary to increase the number of small blast furnaces for steelmaking, to add some machine tools, and to build new accommodation for workers.

Zhu Cijiong can only grasp the general direction now, and the specific details can only be perfected by Xu Guangqi and them, and he has to consider all the details, and two hundred and forty hours a day is not enough.
