Chapter 123: Leaving Germany
After the high-pressure closed container was solved, the trip to Germany has basically come to an end, there are already three ships of goods in front, along the Mediterranean Sea and the Suez Canal, to the Far East, after arriving in Shanghai, it can only be transported by water and railway, transported to Taiyuan, only after the road, it is very difficult, Taiyuan to Baotou has no railway, no road, some large machinery, can not be made at all, fortunately, this time the purchased equipment, most of them are small factory complete sets of equipment, this complete set of equipment, The size is relatively small, and it can barely accept the transportation of horse-drawn carriages, but in the past, it required a lot of energy.
Harpy didn't have time to wait so long for the high-pressure sealed container that he negotiated with Haber, but he left a huge amount of money of 1.5 million marks for the purchase of these three high-pressure closed containers, and then the personnel who stayed in Berlin personally monitored them.
In the Technical University of Berlin, after confirming the authenticity of Harpy's check, the huge investment and profit made Haber temporarily give up the road of continuing to synthesize ammonia, the price of 350,000 a piece, there is a certain profit, not to mention 500,000, Haber knows that as long as this is completed, he will be able to obtain at least six or seven hundred thousand marks of funds, which will plague him with the problem of research plan, and there is almost no zài.
Harpy went all out to make this high-pressure closed container, which seemed to be a delay in time, this container gave him inspiration, coupled with a huge amount of money, so that he could improve the technology of ammonia synthesis in advance, and the efficiency of ammonia synthesis has also increased significantly, especially the experience of making large closed containers, which he used in the new type of synthetic ammonia, and the speed and output of synthesis have surged. In 1913, it succeeded in producing nitric acid, which was 12 times higher than the previous one. 12,000 tons of liquid ammonia can be synthesized into three times as much TNT. More than tens of thousands of tons of TNT were enough to make Germany more fully prepared, and it had stronger confidence in the early stage of the war and during the war.
The end of the high-pressure sealed container is equivalent to the end of Harpy's trip to Germany, and the 250 students are basically arranged, and they will conduct assault training in Germany for about half a year, this half a year. With the help of the German staff, they will integrate into the German society, intensify their language learning, and study in different courses according to different types and majors, and then they will enter the universities of their respective majors, where they will study the majors they are supposed to study.
Among them, Yang Ming is the most special one, especially with the support of Krupp. Entered the Kiel Naval Academy, which is one of the best naval schools in Germany, even for local students. All need to be strictly assessed, but under the impetus of such a behemoth as Krupp, Harpy only spent a small price. Let Yang Ming enroll.
Yang Ming entered the university of his dreams, and he would be in the Kiel Naval School. Spend 5 years, in those five years. Together with other cadets, he systematically studied the German navy, which is the backbone of the world's navy, attaches importance to science and technology, attaches importance to protection, and their unique discipline and combat methods enable them to challenge the world's most important hegemon, Britain.
Like Yang Ming, there are only three or four students who enter the military academy, they are all more thoughtful and ideal, and their will is relatively firm, the schools they choose are all army schools, relative to the navy, the German army, as early as many years ago, has been the first in Europe, sophisticated German equipment, well-trained, with a strong sense of honor soldiers, as well as the establishment of the general staff, so that the German Army has become a model for world learning, these students who joined the military academy, it is with a passion, I just threw myself in.
Yang Yuanzhao did not advocate allowing students to enter military academies, but he did not block them, fortunately, the proportion was not large, and the rest of the people entered engineering colleges, and they are working hard for the next three years, or even more college careers.
No one would have thought that this group of students who came to Germany for the first time have created more brilliant results than their juniors, and their success rate has become a famous science, subject leaders, and even key project leaders, almost abounding, they use enthusiasm and will, to make up for the gap with the world powers, of course, Yang Yuanzhao's guidance and the help of the all-in-one machine are also a huge booster for the development of science and technology, so that they have taken a lot of detours, and when they are young, they will shine.
Leaving a part of the staff, on the one hand, to manage these students, on the other hand, to recruit some workers and engineers in Europe, this is Yang Yuanzhao specifically mentioned, whether it is researchers, technicians, or even technicians, China is relatively lacking in this era, but there are many in Europe, and some have even lost their jobs, recruitment is the best choice.
This recruitment work, when Harpy came to Hamburg, was going on, until now, it has been almost a month, this recruitment work is not going well, this era of Europe, Europeans are naturally artificial, here is the center of the world, the whole world, all need to revolve around Europe, in this case, unless it is cornered, who will go to China which Europeans do not look like birds, Harpy increased his salary by 3 times, but also recruited some low-level engineers and technicians, High-level researchers and scientists, not a single one.
This is more or less, so that Harpy feels frustrated, time waits for no one, Harpy knows, Yang Yuanzhao is still waiting in China, for this mysterious person who single-handedly pulled him out of the abyss, especially full of unknown mysteries, huge amounts of arms, a large amount of money, huge mobilization capacity, by the way, and the refining ability of this tungsten, he made a special investigation for the relationship of tungsten, knowing that tungsten has always been a high-priced precious metal, only recently, Krupp has invested in the refining of tungsten and achieved certain results, However, you are a Krupp company, and the annual output is only 300 tons, how long did Yang Yuanzhao get such an output, and it took only a few days to get the black stone to extract it.
If it's just this, maybe Yang Yuanzhao has mastered a new and more efficient refining method, but Yang Yuanzhao's mystery is far from being so simple, it is this mystery that makes Harpy extremely vigilant, Yang Yuanzhao's roots are definitely not in China, it should be in Europe, or even in Germany.
100 million German marks, which is a huge wealth that cannot be refused for anyone, whether it is a German, American, British, French, the temptation of a huge amount of money, once made him want to take risks, but the pair of eyes that don't know where reminded him again and again that he can't act rashly, in the end, reason defeated greed, Yang Yuanzhao gave a high price, not only gave a high salary, but also gave 5% of the annual profit, according to this calculation, there are not many days, He has at least seven or eight million incomes.
In Germany, it is almost impossible to think about this, under the situation of real greed, not to mention money, small lives, may not be able to wrap up, you know, can take out tens of millions of arms at one time, the equipment of the entire division, just take it out, even a few divisions, to kill him a businessman with a weak foundation, how can he bear it.
More than 20 people, three million Deutsche Mark funds, slowly recruit suitable personnel in Europe, once it reaches a certain amount, it will be sent to China by one person first, of course, there is also the 120 cubic meters of high-pressure closed container, that is the key that Yang Yuanzhao specially ordered, these he sent an assistant to personally watch, once the production is successful, immediately transported back, can not have the slightest delay.
Unknowingly, it has been more than a month since he arrived in Germany, his wife and children have long dealt with the affairs of the family, and came to the port of Hamburg, where he spent 500,000 marks to buy a manor, which is taken care of by the family first, and the villa is also under construction, but he will not come back in the next few years, and his focus is in China.
About to depart, ordered the most luxurious cruise ship in Germany, and the most luxurious cabin, Bobbit and Sujit, still excited, they don't know that they are going to cross the ocean, to which absolutely strange and unknown country, only Anna, she has not completely come out of the fear of the unknown, her expression is a little sad.
"Anna, it's a beautiful country, with fine silks, fragrant tea, and countless porcelain, and the people are very hospitable, you will love it!"
"But, Harpy, I ......"
"I know, it's me who is bad, I didn't take into account your feelings, but I really want to be with you!"
……
After a brief ripple, it quickly flashed away, and Anna regained her composure and meekly fulfilled her duties as a wife, and Harpy let go of her worries and began to think about the next step.
The task of coming to Germany has basically been completed, or exceeded, not counting those second-hand equipment, with Germany's rigor and fineness, even if it is second-hand equipment, it is also very well maintained, and after taking it back and installing it, it can be used normally.
The whistle sounded, the cruise ship slowly left the port, Anne held the two children, looking at the hometown that was constantly far away, tears flowed out at once, Harpy took his wife and children in his arms, but his eyes drifted into the distance, starting from Germany, crossing the Atlantic, and embarking on the road to the United States, compared to Europe, the United States, it seems to be easier.
Unlike the European continent, the United States is much freer, and it is the world's largest economy, thinking about it, it should be a lot of gains, and most importantly, a lot of personnel and forces can be solved in the United States, after all, the United States has a large number of Chinese, and there are children studying in the United States, which is more or less, it will be a lot more convenient, and the personnel problem, I hope the United States can solve it.
