Chapter 16 No Cent

Lai Wang was cursing the stupid Chinese worker in front of him, because the worker in front of him couldn't even tell the difference between gears and spindles.

Levang's full name is Ernst. Feng. Lai Wang, he is from Munich, the capital of Bavaria, Germany, if it weren't for the orders within the family and the high salary given by Fang Tianhao, he would not have come to this poor, remote and backward barbaric country, at least Lai Wan thinks so.

The unification of Germany was relatively late, in 1870~1871, since Bismarck led the Prussian army in the Franco-Prussian War, defeated the French ** team, unified all the large and small states in Germany, divided all of the French Alsace Province and part of the Lorraine Province, and obtained a huge war indemnity of 5 billion francs, so that Germany had the money to develop, really strong, and stood in the position of a world power.

With the rule of Wilhelm II, German capitalist industry and commerce gradually developed and grew.

However, because of the rapid development of its own capitalism and the surplus of domestic production of commodities, the whole territory of Germany presents a situation in which production exceeds demand, and the German colonies are only a little bit, far inferior to Britain and France, even if all the surplus commodities in the country are dumped into the colonies to which Germany belongs, it is still far from being able to solve the current crisis of commodity surplus faced by Germany.

When Prussia unified Germany, the world's colonies had been carved up by Britain, France and other countries, and all that was left for Germany was a little soup and water, which did not match Germany's strong national strength at all.

When it saw the British and French, bringing back large quantities of gold from the colonies every year, it was red-eyed, and it was jealous of England and France.

There is an irreconcilable contradiction between the emerging forces and the established forces!!

Between the two forces, there will eventually be a battle!!

It's just that Germany (Germany), the comprehensive national strength is not as good as Britain and France, once the war starts, Britain and France have India and other colonies to continuously transfuse blood for them, it is simply a small power that cannot be killed.

And Germany, whether it is soldiers or all kinds of resources, uses a little less.

The main point is that Germany does not yet have the courage and confidence to challenge the world's maritime power, Britain. As soon as war broke out and the British fleet blockaded the ports of the German fleet, Germany would immediately become a lion trapped on the European continent.

In this way, Germany will only defeat Germany faster!!

Therefore, Germany needed allies, allies who could hold back Britain and France at a critical moment.

Therefore, a certain force in Germany sends a large number of family members every year to go out to find potential allies in Germany.

Lai Wan was just an unappreciated member of the family, so he was sent to China!!

Although he was full of resentment that he could only be sent to China, the Germanic people, as if they were born with rigor, made him meticulous in maintaining the machinery of the Fangjia factory and teaching the Fangjia workers in technology.

It's just that Lai Wang feels that the Chinese worker in front of him is simply too stupid, and he can't understand how to teach.

Don't you know that these workers don't even know a few big characters, let alone the names of those mechanical parts.

Moreover, Levan is also too lame in his Chinese, even though he has been in China for seven years!!

"Hello, nice to meet you, sir"

While Levan was still angry at the stupidity of the workers, a word of pure English came from behind him.

As a German with a special mission, Levan is certainly no stranger to English.

In modern times, Fang Mu's English is also very good, especially his spoken part is very good.

Lai Wang immediately turned his head to look at the country and saw a Chinese looking at him with a smile.

Obviously, that English sentence was spoken by the Chinese in front of him.

Although Lai Wang was very puzzled, in China, a barbaric and backward country, it is still a very remote place, how can anyone speak such proficient English? still replied politely, and looked at Fang Mu with puzzled eyes.

(Although, since the Westernization of foreign affairs, China has sent a large number of students abroad to seek a way to save the country, but these foreign students have returned to China as soon as they return to China.)

They were either pulled away by the army or abandoned by the bureaucrats of the Qing court.

Because these students studying abroad not only studied knowledge abroad, but also came into contact with some ideological theories, and as soon as they returned to China, they shouted about constitutional monarchy and democracy

Can the Qing government still use them? Do you still dare to use them? )

A spindle is a part of a spinning machine that is used to twist fibers into yarn and wound them into a certain shape. Usually the size of the spinning mill is expressed in terms of the number of spindles.

In the 60s of the 18th century, weaver James Hargreaves invented the "Jenny Machine" hand spinning machine. The "Jenny Machine" can spin many cotton threads at a time, which greatly increases productivity

Fang Mu didn't pay attention to the doubts of the German looking at him in front of him, and said the structure of the spindle and the history of the spinning machine.

Fang Mu's words made Lai Wang feel as if he had found a soulmate!!

"Dear sir, what do you think can be done to increase the amount of cloth produced by the spinning mill?" Lai Wang immediately asked Fang Mu in a respectful tone.

Because, some of the knowledge that Fang Mu just said didn't even know himself, he felt. The Chinese in front of him was too mysterious and gave him too much shock

It depends on the power and gear speed problem, the size of the spindle is also an important factor, but as long as the power problem is solved, the other problems only need time

"Young master, young master, what are you doing running so fast?" Rifle gasped and ran over.

'Hey! Dear Fu, hello, I am very happy to see you" Lai Wang greeted Laifu excitedly as soon as he saw Laifu, obviously knowing Laifu.

"Hello, Levong, but today is not the day to pay!" Laifu calmed down the anxiety when chasing Fang Mu, and replied to Lai Wang with a serious face.

"Young master, this is the German mechanical engineer Ernst who was invited by the master for our factory. Feng. Lai Wang" Laifu introduced to Fang Mu.

Because Fang Mu was too sloppy before, he had never come to the Fang family's factory at all, and Laifu introduced Fang Mu to Lai Wang

'Lai Wang, this is our young master of the Fang family, our master's only son, Fang Mu" Laifu introduced Fang Mu to Lai Wang with a proud face, looking like that, as if Fang Mu was his own son!!!

Fang Mu smiled kindly at Laifu's actions in front of Lai Wang.

"Sir, I need your help!!

Fang Mu's tone was heavy and serious towards Lai Wang
