News came from the Red Hall that a small convoy of five transport ships had disappeared in the Bass Strait, which was in the midst of a storm at the time of the disappearance; Five days later, fishermen at Langqiao Harbor recovered some floating debris near Qixing Reef and confirmed that the entire convoy had been killed. The Chief Secretary for Administration of the www.biquge.info of Pen & Fun > announced in the Tokai Daily that hundreds of people had been killed due to the typhoon, but the news that the Chief Secretary did not release was that several merchant ships and transport ships in the South China Sea were also killed by the storm. According to official statistics, the total number of people killed due to maritime affairs since the establishment of the East China Sea State is 47,000, but only a few people from the Intelligence Department and the top officials of the East China Sea Kingdom know that since Fu Ning established a foothold in Jilong Harbor, the total number of wrecked ships in the East China Sea has exceeded 1,000, and the total number of wrecked people has also exceeded 700,000. In the early days of the steam industrial revolution based on the port of Jilong, due to the immaturity of shipbuilding technology, iron ships wrecked one after another; There are countless ships that have been wrecked due to high speeds, waves and storms, deformation of the hull, navigation operations, etc., and it can be said that the East China Sea Kingdom has built its current and mature shipbuilding industry at the cost of hundreds of thousands of lives!

In fact, the biggest maritime incident occurred in the "Luyu lost the Kanto", that is, the "great development outside the Guan" migration period, when it was the winter and spring, the unprecedented tide of immigrants swept the Yellow and Bohai Seas, in order to transport immigrants to the East China Sea country exhausted almost all the transport capacity, but before and after the wrecked more than 100 iron and wooden ships, at the same time more than 200,000 immigrants and crew members were killed!

Now that everything is fine, the total number of wrecked ships this year is only a few dozen, and even more so iron ships, and the accumulation of ship technology has brought the number of maritime casualties to an all-time low.

The research and development and maturity of small diesel-powered ships have led to another big explosion in the number of iron ships, and more than a dozen shipyards in the city and port are frantically producing small-tonnage iron ships, because these small-tonnage diesel-powered iron ships have high horsepower, are flexible and have a wider range of applications; At the same time, the surge of small-tonnage diesel ships has also brought great pressure to the research and development of large-tonnage diesel-powered ships, because the pressure on the Department of Industry and Fu Ning on the scientific research department is unprecedented, and all the pressure is to expect the scientific research department to come up with a super-high-power diesel-powered prototype as soon as possible!

If you talk about the working principle of diesel engines, Fu Ning can recite it anytime and anywhere, because in the original life, he was too familiar with the "small four-wheeler"; At that time, his father often repaired tractors for free to his neighbors, and people in all towns knew that Fu Ning's father's skills in repairing agricultural machinery were extremely exquisite, and Fu Ning grew up watching agricultural walk-behind tractors and small four-wheeled tractors, and did not leave his rural hometown until he later went to college; But now in this world of red mansions, Fu Ning can no longer guide the theory of ship diesel power, because those are things that he does not understand.

With the support of the Research Division, Lushun Machinery Factory has developed countless diesel engine models, but none of them can exceed 100 horsepower!

The miracle finally appeared in the Shenyang Machinery Factory, where a laboratory of the Scientific Research Department in the Shenyang Machinery Factory was the first to come up with a prototype diesel engine with more than 200 horsepower, and its theory came from a dropout of the Normal University.

Theoretically, students from Donghaiguo do not drop out of school, because as long as they can get a credit, they can graduate; According to the education system of Donghai Kingdom, students who have gone to school for one day and get a credit can apply for a graduation certificate, and the graduation credit indicated on the graduation certificate is the most critical evidence to prove the achievement, so Fu Ning is now curious not only about the diesel engine prototype with more than 200 horsepower, but also about how that student became a dropout of Normal University.

The intelligence department investigated quickly, and the investigation materials about the student were sent to Fu Ning after two days' work. The student's name was Mao Goat, which is said to have been given to him by his father, so much so that the name was once ridiculed by many people; According to the information of the Intelligence Department, this student named Mao Goat is extremely studious, but he has a withdrawn personality, and was beaten by the teacher after confronting the teacher because of different views, and then Mao Goat simply beat the teacher and dropped out of school; Because of the insistence of the teacher who was beaten, the hairy goat was not able to get the graduation certificate; But talent is talent, Mao Goat then applied for an apprenticeship in the Department of Scientific Research as a middle school student, and then entered the Shenyang Machinery Factory; There is no shortage of books in the scientific research department, and the woolly goat quickly obtained the status of a craftsman, and later the scientific research department developed a multi-cylinder integrated diesel engine with more than 200 horsepower according to the theory of the woolly goat in a laboratory in the Shenyang Machinery Factory.

Fu Ning then sent an order to the Department of Culture, "No one may deprive college students of their right to graduate for any reason!" ”； As for the hairy goat, Fu Ning immediately issued him the honor of a marquis; The specific amount of money and property awarded to the woolly goat is the business of the Scientific Research Department, but the right to issue knighthood honors is only available to Fu Ning!

Fu Ning does not know why the previous multi-cylinder diesel engine prototype of the scientific research department cannot exceed 100 horsepower, but since the scientific research department has developed a diesel engine prototype of more than 200 horsepower through the theory of wool goats, the work that Fu Ning needs to do now is to promote, so the new assembly line began to lay a large number of new production lines, and the relevant supporting equipment factories also began to build.

The successful research and development of rubber tires and high-power diesel engines has rapidly expanded the scale of the second industrial revolution, so that the intelligence of the cavalry division of the Ministry of War to reach Kulen has not attracted Fu Ning's attention, and now Fu Ning is mainly focusing on the machinery manufacturing industry, and the comprehensive promotion and application of internal combustion engines and electricity is the focus of Fu Ning's attention!

Almost all of the South's prospecting forces in the South, such as Liuqiu, Luzon, Sulu, Borneo and Australia, have been transferred to the North, and it is foreseeable that the prospecting industry in the South will have to rely on successors and students for the next few years.

More than 200,000 new personnel have been added to the Kanto Prefecture for the prospecting industry, and the distribution of iron ore and coal mines is extensive, so the distribution of prospecting personnel is also extensive; The strange thing about the Industrial Department was that all the oil prospectors were sent by Fu Ning to look for ore on the Songnen Plain, but after thinking of Fu Ning's usual mystery and strangeness, the Industrial Department also kept silent.

Where is the Daqing Oilfield Fu Ning is not clear, but Fu Ning knows that the Daqing Oilfield is in the middle of Qiqihar and Harbin, but the Harbin in this world is named by Fu Ning by guessing, so Fu Ning does not dare to determine the location of the Daqing Oilfield at once, so he can only send tens of thousands of prospectors to search for exploration in a zipper style at the possible location!

Development is far more difficult than destruction! One or two million alien youths had been killed before and after the Kwantung and Goryeo provinces, and the news from the cavalry division Feiying on the Kulen side said that 300,000 young men had been captured and six or seven hundred thousand aliens had been cleared; It is easy to clean up and destroy the alien race, but the various constructions of the East China Sea Country are difficult to advance step by step; The machinery and vehicle manufacturing industry in Kanto Prefecture is still in its infancy, far from keeping up with the development of mining, so the inventory of steel is still like a mountain, and it is still mainly used for railways and shipbuilding.

The prospect of internal combustion engines can be expected, and the popularization of mechanical vehicles can be expected from afar, so the highway infrastructure supporting mechanical vehicles has been put on the agenda; The five-year highway construction target of 300,000 kilometers has been issued to the Department of Transportation, and Zhou Runshui, the director of the Department of Transportation with his mouth open, was stupid for a quarter of an hour before he remembered to call Fu Ning! But Fu Ning's words were extremely resolute, "Five Chinese New Year's Eve and 30,000 kilometers of highways is just a rough indicator, and the detailed development plan is specifically formulated by your transportation department; I don't care what you arrange, I will do my best to support you if you want resources, but you have to do your best! ”。

After putting down the phone, Zhou Runshui reacted, it turned out that the index given by Fu Ning was just an expectation, and he just hoped that the Transportation Department would go all out to build the highway with the greatest strength, but Zhou Runshui still did not dare to relax.

The prospect of the full application of internal combustion engine power makes the development plan of Donghae country to be readjusted in a comprehensive way! Steam engine ships and steam locomotives can be expected to be phased out, so the manufacturing industry of steam engine ships and steam locomotives will begin to be gradually reduced; The construction mode of the railway will also inevitably change, and the three-stage construction mode of simple rail, light rail and heavy rail will inevitably be changed to the construction mode of highway first and heavy rail railway later; And electric public transportation is bound to appear on a large scale!

Fu Ning presided over the General Staff Department to convene three plenary meetings of various ministries and departments, and new development ideas and plans were repeatedly revised and determined; Fu Ning asked all ministries and departments to quickly change their thinking, and to thoroughly understand the changes and impacts brought about by the revolution in the internal combustion engine and power industry, so as to avoid the emergence of retrogressive development!

Fu Ning was a little surprised by the difficulties of the three meetings of the General Staff Department, and many high-level personnel had great mistakes in their understanding of the prospects of the internal combustion engine and the electric power industrial revolution, they always thought that the internal combustion engine or electricity was just a little more powerful or convenient, but they could not imagine the emergence and popularization of convenient and rapid transportation and convenient electrical appliances! Fu Ning's propaganda through the three meetings only gave some people a preliminary understanding of the prospects of the second industrial revolution.

The difficulties of the three meetings of the General Staff made Fu Ning think for a long time, and finally Fu Ning decided to set up the Institute of Development and Change at Donghai State University, which is mainly used for the training and further education of officials, so that officials can keep up with and lead the progress of the times!

The Institute of Development and Transformation of Tokai State University, referred to as Tokai Development Research Institute, is mainly responsible for the training and further education of officials. According to Fu Ning's plan, the officials of the East China Sea Kingdom should be trained and refreshed every once in a while in order to keep abreast of the development and prospects of science, and how to carry out the corresponding work to keep up with the development of the times. In the early days, the Donghai Development Research Institute arranged for officials to receive training and training every two years, each for three months. After that, the training time may be gradually increased, and the training and training will be held once every four years, and each training will be half a year; The scope of training personnel will gradually expand from the top to all officials, and may even be extended to village-level officials when conditions are ripe in a few years.

In fact, the effect of the introduction of the official training system is indeed very good! The first phase of the training personnel are all high-level officials of various ministries and departments of the East China Sea, and the lecturers from the scientific research department and the industrial department will show and explain various industrial equipment and products, as well as application prospects, followed by Fu Ning to explain the macro layout and expectations of industrial development and the prospects for future changes. Although Fu Ning's personal teaching has long been the norm in the East China Sea, this period of official training still has a great impact on the trainees, and the prospect of thousands of miles of dawn and sunset, TV and movies and radios, and convenient motor vehicles in every household are unfolding in the minds of officials one by one, and these ideas and expectations have brought a huge ideological impact to the officials; Things such as prototypes and models are far better and more direct than simple meeting-style written presentations!

The establishment of the Development and Research Institute has gradually made the advanced education of officials become the norm, so that the development of the second industrial revolution has truly changed from passive to active! The research and development of diesel-powered locomotives began to accelerate, the research and development of fuel power for large ships accelerated, the most direct is that simple cars, motorcycles, bicycles, etc. began to appear in the streets and alleys, washing machines, freezers, electric fans, etc. began to appear in large numbers of people, and even began to popularize some communities, social changes can quickly conquer the psychology of some people at a visible speed!

The R&D of synthetic rubber has brought about changes far from only in the machinery industry, but also brought great benefits to the popularization and development of the power industry! Synthetic rubber and plastics have reinvigorated the once-stagnant development of electricity, and countless electronic and electrical parts and accessories have been developed; The miniaturization of radio stations has become possible, and the research and development of radios, televisions and other electrical appliances has also begun to be put on the agenda, and the most direct change is that the telephone is no longer an official equipment, but has begun to go to the people!

Fu Ning is basically unable to intervene in the development of science and technology now, because he doesn't understand the details at all, so all he can do now is to put forward a rough theory and then let the scientific research department focus on it. The development of science and technology is not a matter of one person, but a collective force; A complete industrial chain and a solid knowledge reserve are the foundation for the development of science and technology, so the schools under the Department of Culture are gradually formalized! The primary education in Donghai has been formalized, and the universal education of primary schools, the five-year school system, a number of knowledge points, etc., are all detailed and complete, and you can repeat and skip a grade, but you can no longer have a graduation certificate if you do not have a passing grade! As for the gradual formalization of secondary schools, the school system has not yet been completely unified but has begun to tend to the four-year and five-year systems, but the knowledge points to be learned have not yet been completely unified, so it is still possible to graduate with one credit and 1,000 credits.
