The previous trip to the Weaving Bureau, if everyone was surprised, the next visit to the Iron and Steel Casting Bureau and the Gun Manufacturing Bureau made everyone have to be in awe of Hongmen.

Once upon a time, thousands of catties of steel converged into a stream of red torrents that emitted aggressive heat, and under the traction of a crucible, they were carefully operated by the workers and poured into molds one by one, turning into pieces of raw materials.

Subsequently, these various raw materials were transported from the casting bureau to the gun weaving bureau factory.

In the Gun Factory, there were countless steel tools of all kinds, which were not known to the proprietors of the various businesses that they thought to be well-informed, let out a great roar and swirled like a fly; Countless steel molds, in front of these steel tools, are as crisp as watery tofu, and countless iron filings and residues fall out, and at the same time transform into a more familiar appearance.

Milling machines, lathes, drilling machines, grinding machines, all kinds of novel steel machine names, people are overwhelmed, assembly-line work scenes, so that this group of Grandma Liu into the Grand View Garden Chamber of Commerce members have become 100,000 why, grab Li Tianyang, Dong Haoran and their Hongmen as escorts and ask non-stop.

A day's visit made the members of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce full of hope for the arrival of this machine age, although these factories and workshops need to use water conservancy to provide power, but the territory of the Ming Dynasty is vast, where can not find a few suitable damming terrain!

As for the gear transmission system and various steel tools, although the steel materials required are huge, as long as everyone has the heart to collect, they can always be gathered.

At this time, everyone is more concerned about whether Hongmen is willing to sell these manufacturing machines and water conservancy transmission systems to everyone, so that everyone can share the convenience brought by advanced technology.

Several times, the young and impulsive owner proposed to purchase and asked Li Tianyang if he had the intention of selling, but he was always brought by Li Tianyang's understatement, as if this time he took everyone to visit the real family of Hongmen, just to show off his wealth to everyone.

When it took a day to visit several important factories, the proprietors who were very excited in front of the novelty gradually calmed down as time passed, but they began to wonder what thoughts were behind Li Tianyang's intriguing attitude.

I thought that yesterday's visit was already the biggest secret of Hongmen, but who would have thought that on the third day, Li Tianyang once again led everyone to see a broader world.

Bengang R&D Institute has always been the most important institution in Hongmen, in addition to those R&D personnel and security personnel, even Wu Jie, who is a high-level personnel in important positions, who want to enter the R&D Institute, must hold a pass stamped by Li Tianyang himself to enter.

And today, Bengang R&D Institute, which has been closed to the outside world, welcomed their first external guests, a group of proprietors from the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce.

Bicycles were placed in rows at the entrance gate of the R&D Institute, and several members of the R&D Institute rushed over to greet Li Tianyang and their group on bicycles.

Bicycles have long been sold to the outside world, and they are not a strange thing for the members of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce here, and even everyone present has a bicycle in their collection, which is used for daily travel or recreation.

However, to everyone's surprise, next to the bicycle asphalt road, two rails made of steel extend from Bengang to the R&D institute when they came, and there are heavy sleepers poured with Hongmen's special cement under the rails, which really makes everyone guess the purpose of this thing.

Although it was the first time to receive guests to visit, I had already learned that many extremely confidential studies of the R&D Institute arranged by Li Tianyang had been cleared in advance and moved to other secret rooms before the arrival of these guests.

The reason why Li Tianyang invited everyone to come to the R&D Institute was not to expose all his hole cards without a lack of heart, but for another thing.

I'm afraid that many officials have already guessed the most mysterious object that Li Tianyang wants the members of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce to visit, that's right, it is the steam train that Hongmen has been developing for many years, but has not been able to completely realize the practical steam train.

Since he began to prepare to join the big chess game of competing for the world in his heart, Li Tianyang began to think about what to do next, and he thought that he had done a good job in the Ming Dynasty.

Dayuan Island has also been developing, but after all, this island is so big, and most of them are undeveloped wild land, even if Hongmen's reclamation technology has advanced by leaps and bounds, but before the emergence of chemical fertilizers such as urea and phosphate fertilizer, the new land raised by many manure technologies in ancient times has at least a barren period of about two years.

Therefore, it is not a very realistic thing to develop Dayuan Island in a short period of time and enrich its own heritage.

However, Hongmen now has a natural good help by his side, that is, the members of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce.

In addition to Hongmen and Luzon Medan Sulu Kingdom, the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce also has 58 businesses rooted in various parts of the Ming Dynasty, and the strength is enough to influence one province, but there are several powerful ones that are important in several provinces; Although other businesses may have less influence, it is not difficult to influence a government and a county in their lair!

From this point of view, the overall strength of the 58 firms of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce is a pivotal existence in the Ming Dynasty, and it is no wonder that they can compete with the Jin merchants, Chao merchants, Hui merchants and other business teams and not fall behind.

At this time, many hole cards that have been kept secret are spread on the table, so that the members of the Chamber of Commerce can understand how powerful Hongmen is, which can not only unite everyone more closely around Hongmen, but also give the members of the Chamber of Commerce full confidence after Hongmen really wants to embark on the route of hegemony in the future, so that they can bet their chips on themselves.

Therefore, although there are still many defects in the steam train at this time, Li Tianyang no longer retains it, and today he will reveal this great product that can change the future world to the world.
