"Without the steam engine as a power, there would be no industrialization. Song Yingxing was also very excited, and he said solemnly: "Juzheng, what we are doing now is only to do something for the survival and growth of He Yusheng, but I feel that there is really a steam engine to build, and it is the kind of early industrialization that adults say in private has really arrived."www.biquge.info ”

"A steam engine." Chang Jinyou said with a wry smile: "From the current progress, it will take at least twenty years to produce a prototype." ”

"It may take 50 years to build a prototype, to improve it, and then to get it ready for use in the mine, and then to drive the machine and even the wagon."

"I hope it's soon."

"Yes, the efforts of the Europeans on the industrial machine have been decades ahead of us." Song Yingxing said solemnly: "Fortunately, I have a genius like an adult, I think that we may quickly catch up after the decades we have lagged behind, and we can leave the other party behind again." ”

"Now I have some way of understanding Wen Lan." Chang Jin said: "Without force, there will be no financial resources, and with financial resources alone, we will not be able to protect everything at present." ”

"Yes." Song Yingxing had a smile on his face, and he said, "Let's submit it to the military department as soon as possible and start to improve the drawing work, right?" ”

……

Coming back from the snowy Mobei, Rao is Zhang Han was as strong as an ox, but he still had an illness and had a fever for many days.

Chang Ning and Yuniang Yangliu, in addition to taking care of the children, are around him every day, boiling decoctions, wiping their bodies, and taking care of Zhang Han as a big child.

This is also a rare period for these girls to get along with Zhang Han for a long time, especially in such a time period...... The Chinese New Year is just a few days away.

Sun Jingting rushed from Lizhuang to Qingcheng, his family was also in Qingcheng, and after the head of the Military Command Department announced the holiday, he left the corresponding duty personnel to rush from Lizhuang to Qingcheng.

"Wen Lan, it's enough to hide in the house, right?" Li Shenming had a white snowflake on top of his head and crashed in from outside the house.

"I've seen Uncle." Chang Ning was generous and blessed Li Shenming.

"Brother and sister are very polite." Li Shenming and Zhang Han are not only brothers in friendship, but also changed posts with Sun Jingting, and everyone can be regarded as brothers.

At that time, this kind of thing was also very common, and after changing the post, the friendship between each other has entered another layer, which is considered a good family, and the family can not shy away from it, and it is much more convenient to interact with each other.

"Uncle, look at the second brother." After Chang Ning signaled, a maid hugged the child over.

Li Shenming took a closer look and teased for a long time before turning his head to Zhang Han and Chang Ning and said solemnly: "The eyes are like torches, they are unspeakably expensive, and the son of the respected family will become a great weapon in the future." ”

This can be regarded as exquisite flattery, Chang Ning has heard a lot of this kind of words recently, but what he said was Li Shenming, who was a person and played a pivotal role in Heyusheng, which made Chang Ning full of joy, she saluted again, and then took the child down.

"It's only two sons!" Li Shenming said with some sadness: "Wenlan, what do you want me to say." ”

"I'm only in my twenties." Zhang Han half-lying on the chair, with a blanket on his feet, the temperature in the room is very high, the fire in the stove is very strong, boiling hot water while carrying out thermal circulation in the house, the seal is broken charcoal, there is nothing else in Shanxi, the coal really wants how much, this coal is still heat-treated coke, high quality, less flue gas, the furnace can save heat to the maximum extent after special mud sealing...... In the past two years, there have been many people who have imitated and Yusheng stoves, but few have been able to achieve such an effect.

"Twenties?" Li Shenming said: "I don't know how many emperors have more than a dozen sons in their twenties." ”

"At least I don't." Zhang Han smiled and said: "In his twenties, one wife, two concubines, and two sons, it's okay." ”

"But it's really not enough." Li Shenming said with a straight face: "With Wenlan's status today, there are at least a dozen concubines, and one or two sons are born every year. ”

"Okay, brother, stop ......" Zhang Han waved his hand again and again, making a look of begging for mercy.

Zhang Han knew that this fight must be "My Emperor Taizu Gao has more than 20 sons in his thirties...... although men must be more and more kind to women, but Zhang Han is not so eager, the three women in the back house get along quite well, and they are all girls under twenty, Zhang Han is busy with official business, and has to deal with three wives, this kind of thing is simple to say, the fantasy of otaku is that the beauty moans tactfully under him, and then lifts his pants and leaves, and the beauty is still dead on the ground...... Of course, this is a fantasy, no matter how powerful a man is, the harem must also be managed with heart, otherwise the world will be restless and fart.

"Well, that's not mentioned beforehand." Li Shenming really persuaded casually, Zhang Han's age, body, and two sons were really not as eager as Li Shenming said.

Li Shenming said again: "Let's give the eldest son and the eldest son a big name." ”

Li Shenming paused and said, "Publish it in the newspaper, write a few strokes, and award it to the public." ”

This is true, although Zhang Han's two sons are young, one is one year old, and the other is only a few months old, but it doesn't hurt to do this early.

created public opinion as soon as possible, and everyone knew that Zhang Han's two sons were at the core of power, and accepted it early in their hearts, so that even if Zhang Han really had any accidents, with Sun Jingting and Li Shenming and others, it could still be guaranteed that Zhang Han's sons would take over the power.

Of course, without Zhang Han's and Yusheng, it is difficult to say whether they can maintain their current status.

However, if the tuntian area is perfected, the cultivation of cotton fields and the cultivation of all kinds of foreign drought-tolerant plants are popularized, a large number of military personnel and factory areas are moved to the grasslands, and the main force of the army is in the grasslands, even if Zhang Han has any accidents now, it is still very possible to maintain the situation on the grasslands with the talents of Li Shenming and others.

"My father is named after soil, I am named after water, and my son is based on wood, which is the ...... set by the grandfather back then."

Zhang Han's eyes showed a contemplative look, his face was still a little flushed, and there were a few rashes on his face, which was a natural reaction after a high fever, speaking of which Zhang Han had a very vague impression of the old lady back then, even his father couldn't remember it clearly.

Speaking of which, Zhang Han has no feelings for the Zhang family in Puzhou and his direct ancestors, and of course he can't remember them in normal times.

But at this time, remembering his name and the names of his children and grandchildren was also a flash of thought from an old man decades ago, Zhang Han felt that there seemed to be a thread in the darkness, linking himself with two people who had passed away long ago.

Zhang Yin fell out with the Zhang family in Puzhou at the beginning, and did not use the poem number left by Zhang Siwei as the genealogy lineage, but named Zhang Han's father Zhang Yun, and there was only one Zhang Han in the third generation, and Zhang Han's two sons were already the fourth generation of the Zhang family in Xinpingbao.

"The eldest is called Zhang Bin, and the second is called Zhang Zhen, so it's decided." Zhang Han didn't think about it for too long, and directly gave the names of his two sons.

"Good, good." Li Shenming breathed a sigh of relief as if he had accomplished something big. He then said: "In a few years, you are going to visit a famous teacher and study for the two sons?" ”

"It really doesn't have to be." Zhang Han said: "The school should be relocated to Qingcheng for a part, and a new part will be built, and there will be a school in Qingcheng, so why bother to run your own homeschool?" ”

"It seems that Wen Lan is determined not to respect Confucianism alone in the future." Li Shenming also has the identity of a person in the end, and his face showed a very complicated look.

Zhang Han does not have a complete system for academics, in fact, there is no system. He believes that the core of civilization is continuous eclecticism, and Confucianism has had a lot of bad things so far, and it not only needs to be washed away by foreign philosophical systems, but also those doctrines that have been banned or eliminated in their own country can also repair the core of this civilization.

"Just walking." Zhang Han coughed twice and said with a smile: "Maybe because I am a child, I don't know how to learn, and I don't have so much respect for the master's teachings, and Song Ru, I lack respect even more." ”

There was a faint sound of people talking outside, and after a while, Wu Qi came over and reported: "My lord, Han Lao Liu came over and said that the large-scale test on the mine was successful. ”

"Very good." Zhang Han had a happy look on his face, there was no doubt that this was good news, the procedure for obtaining brass was simpler, and the time was reduced.

"You can make an extra profit of 400,000." Li Shen commented concisely.

"Almost." Zhang Han stood up and put on his cloak, Wu Qi and the others hurriedly opened the door and walked out with Zhang Han.

Outside the door, the sky is blue, many days of sunny days, the weather has finally warmed up a lot, there is still a lot of residual snow on the top of the eaves, but the snow in the yard has melted away, revealing the original bricks.

The courtyard is full of busy people, here was originally a small lama temple, Qingcheng was originally a large temple collection, the Mongolians did not have the custom of building the city, the famous Mongolian city of this year, most of them are transformed from the collection of temples, Qingcheng is still good, there are some aristocratic mansions and khan palaces in the city, there are also a few civilian residences, Kulun, there are only a few felt bags on the periphery, most of the buildings are temples.

Since Zhang Han lives here, he has taken his mother and three wives and concubines over, of course, he wants to live a more comfortable life, and the reconstruction work is imperative, but today's work should be the last day of the year, and the craftsmen will also have a holiday.

Passing through from the main house all the way, passing through the inner house door, the lobby, the second door, all the way are an endless stream of people, the whole building complex from the vulgar lama temple style changed back to the Chinese courtyard building, invited a famous family of Datong garden to preside, the whole courtyard tile first replaced, and then demolished the Buddha statue and some redundant buildings, planted more trees, rockeries, pavilions and pavilions are slowly built, the whole construction period is estimated to continue until next summer, when a patchwork, exquisite and atmospheric courtyard will reveal the prototype.

Zhang Han smiled at Li Shenming: "Speaking of which, I first lived in Xinpingbao, then lived in Lizhuang and Tianchengwei, and now I live in Qingcheng, but I have really not stopped moving in the past few years......"

"It's different." Li Shenming smiled and said: "You were a single stupid boy at the beginning, but now you are the head of hundreds of thousands of people, and the head of three daughters-in-law and two sons of the foreign family, this will also be the foundation for us and Yusheng to truly stand on their own......"

Zhang Han didn't make a sound, just nodded.
