PS. Present today's update, by the way, pull a vote for the "starting point" 515 fan festival, everyone has 8 votes, and the vote will also give the starting point coin, kneel and beg everyone to support and appreciate!

"Da Mu, let's not talk about any military orders, I believe in you, you go down and think about the problem in detail, if there are difficulties, put them forward as soon as possible, and solve all the problems before going to sea, Weisheng, your ocean trading company also hurry up to prepare the goods, and arrange this sea trip as soon as possible."

Seeing that Zheng Chenggong was extremely confident, Luo Jian didn't say anything more, and after explaining to Zheng Chenggong and Lu Wei, he turned to Zheng Zhilong and asked:

"Minister Zheng, how is your Naval Equipment Research Institute progressing now?"

"Governor, to be honest, I don't know much about the research of this ironclad ship, but I heard them tell me, the key problem now is how to connect the steel plates has not been solved, they have considered connecting the steel plates or using wood, I run a lot on the sea, to be honest, in this way, the ironclad ship is not as good as the wooden ship can withstand the wind and waves." Zheng Zhilong said.

Luo Jian then remembered that if he really wanted to build an ironclad ship, the welding technology had to be solved, and he had to find Liu Weimin for this matter, and he didn't know if the chemical plant could produce acetylene now. Now only this kind of combustible welding can be considered, and arc welding will definitely not be able to reach it with current technology.

Thinking of this, Luo Jian remembered that he hadn't been to the research institute for a long time, and after finishing today's conversation, Luo Jian found Liu Weimin in the afternoon and went to several research institutes located in Nanjing National University.

Luo Jian's arrival made Song Yingxing very excited, and he hadn't seen Luo Jian for half a year.

"Xinghua, I can't get out of here. I didn't go to your house to congratulate you. You don't blame me for being an old man, are you? Song Yingxing was wearing a white coat. The hair had already been cut short, and it looked a little older than last year, but Luo Jian didn't see any white hair.

"Old Song, what you are doing here is much more important than going to congratulate me, how can I blame you? By the way, Song Lao, has your internal combustion engine research progressed? Luo Jian was very happy to see that Song Yingxing was in very good spirits.

"Of course there is progress. But I thought it was simple at the beginning, and now it seems that it's really not simple. Song Yingxing frowned and said, but soon his brows relaxed again.

"However, Xinghua, to be honest, through the study of the internal combustion engine, we have made a lot of progress in mathematics, materials science and mechanics, which makes me the happiest."

Looking at Song Yingxing's squinting eyes, it was obvious that he was very satisfied with the progress of theory and technology during this time.

"Xinghua, give us another year. You can't build an internal combustion engine like your Warrior, but it's okay to work. By that time, we will be able to solve a lot of problems. ”

Song Yingxing saw that Luo Jian didn't speak, and continued.

Luo Jian didn't hear Song Yingxing's words, he thought of other questions.

In the past few years, all technologies have been practical, just like the manufacture of steam engines, the original steam engine was roughly built by Song Yingxing.

For example, the power of the steam engine installed on the battleship "Weiqing" was not high, but after the introduction of mathematical models to improve it, the output power was greatly increased.

"Elder Song, I don't think you need to do it in one step, you can get it out first, and then slowly improve it according to its performance, and your research will take a big step forward in the process of improvement." Luo Jian thought for a long time before he said to Song Yingxing.

"Well, we think the same way, the model machine will come out soon, please come back and see it then."

It seems that Song Yingxing is still very sober in his thinking.

Song Yingxing accompanied Luo Jian to see several research institutes, most of which were young people's research institutes, which made Luo Jian feel full of vitality here, but Luo Jian also found a lot of problems in them.

The most critical problem is that except for Song Yingxing's research institute, which is studying the internal combustion engine in a targeted manner, the research of several other research institutes feels a bit aimless, and the theoretical level has not made much progress.

Back in Song Yingxing's office, Luo Jian discussed with Song Yingxing and Liu Weimin for a long time, and dealt with it casually for dinner, and after eating, Luo Jian gathered the main personnel of several research institutes.

"Everyone knows that the Wehrmacht's battle for Beijing has ended, the Manchu court has been basically wiped out, and now all that remains is some finishing touches. The fact that we were able to achieve such a great victory was not so much the victory of the soldiers of the Wehrmacht on the battlefield, but rather the fact that we defeated the Manchus with advanced technology. ”

Luo Jian's opening remarks did not mention technology, which surprised everyone.

In other words, the credit for the victory in this war is not only to the soldiers of the Wehrmacht, but also to our scientific and technological personnel here. For example, Xiao Liu's research institute has found a way to increase the production capacity of new zha medicines, and I think this credit is no less than the elimination of 20,000 Qing troops. ”

The Xiao Liu that Luo Jian is talking about here is not Liu Weimin, but Liu Cui'e, Liu Cui'e also knew that Luo Jian was talking about her, her face turned red, and the group of young people sitting below also felt very excited.

"Today I came to see several institutes, and I am very satisfied with the overall feeling, but I think we can make faster progress. We have solved the national problem, and the next step is to do a good job in construction, so what role can our institute play in the construction? Here I would like to give you a few specific tasks, which can be regarded as goals. ”

Luo Jian asked the secretary to bring a large map and hung it on the wall behind him.

"Our train has been relatively mature, and now it is being repaired to the south, and it will definitely be repaired to the north in the future, but have you noticed that if we repair it from Nanjing to Yangzhou, what is the biggest trouble? It's the Yangtze River, and further north, there's the Yellow River. These are only the two largest rivers in our country, and there are countless other smaller rivers. That's definitely not going to work! ”

Everyone looked at the map, and they all understood the meaning of Luo Jian's words in their hearts, and they were also imagining what the north-south road would be like.

"Maybe everyone thought of it. The first task was to design and build a bridge over the Yangtze River. Some might say. Building roads and bridges is a craftsman's business. What's the matter with our institute? If you only build a stone bridge over a small river, it may not be everyone's business, but if you want to build a bridge over the Yangtze River, it is too much of your business. Old Song, can you tell me? ”

Luo Jian greeted Song Yingxing with a smile.

"Listen, you boys, the bridge is not as simple as you think. First, trains can pass through it. Second, boats can still walk under the bridge. Third, in addition to pedestrians on the bridge. Warrior chariots like the Metropolitan Governors can also walk from above. ”

Song Yingxing's words made everyone start to ponder, it seems that it is not easy to build a bridge on the Yangtze River.

The Yangtze River and the Yellow River, as China's mother rivers, have nurtured and nourished the Chinese nation for thousands of years, but they have also blocked the north-south traffic, and it is essential to solve this problem if the economy wants to continue to develop in the future.

The construction of the bridge on the Yangtze River involves many disciplines and a wide range of technical applications, and once the design and construction are successful, it will not only play a huge role in economic development. It will also promote a big step forward in science and technology, which is the topic discussed by Luo Jian, Song Yingxing, and Liu Weimin to use topics to drive scientific and technological progress.

After moving on to a few topics. Luo Jian left the institute, and from tomorrow, Liu Weimin and Song Yingxing will study how to group these topics, how to integrate forces, and some topics can be further refined, and they can be handed over to Nanjing National University for the college students to study together.

Although the Nanjing government is in financial distress, Luo Jian is worried about this these days, but Liu Lan has made a lot of money during this time, her bicycle factory has begun to walk on the streets of Nanjing after a period of trial sale, Luo Jian is commuting to work in a carriage, from time to time there is a bicycle passing by the carriage.

"Liu Lan, why are you making so much money? We won't be able to spend it in ten lifetimes. Luo Jian was a little puzzled by Liu Lan's desperate efforts to make money.

"Xinghua, you, do you think there is too much money? I think it's still far from it. Have you forgotten that we are going to build a university? I have all thought about it, let's build a university in Nanjing, and we will call it 'Gladiolus University', and if we build a university in Beijing, we will call it 'Lanjian University'. Liu Lan said with a smile.

"'Gladiolus', 'Blue Sword'? I said Liu Lan, can you not be so cheesy? Luo Jian laughed so much that he almost squirted his rice.

"Don't laugh! It's decided, no one can call the shots for me! Liu Lan said arrogantly.

The old lady was watching the little two bickering on the side while feeding Xiao Luo Ting.

"Do your own thing, don't let grandma feed it." Liu Lan said to her son.

"Grandma, I can eat it myself, I don't need you to feed it." Luo Ting said in a milky voice. Xiao Luo Ting is one and a half years old this year, this child speaks early, he can call his parents as early as half a year ago, and he has the best relationship with the old lady, and the two are almost inseparable.

"Xinghua, I think the name of my daughter is good, after hundreds of years, who still remembers Luo Jian and Liu Lan, but as long as this school is still there, those student babies will say when they enter the school, this is the school built by my daughter." The old lady said with a smile.

"The Governor, Madame, and the little one also thinks this name is good." Zhang Cheng, who was standing next to him, also came up and said funny.

Luo Jian and Liu Lan kept asking Zhang Cheng to sit down and eat with them, but Zhang Cheng refused to kill him, and Luo Jian and Liu Lan had no choice but to follow him.

"Zhang Cheng, how many times have I said it? You are not small, you have to value yourself, no one will look down on you! Liu Lan glanced at Zhang Cheng very dissatisfied.

After dinner, the old lady took Luo Ting to recite poems, and Luo Jian and Liu Lan came to the back garden to enjoy the coolness.

"Xinghua, I've always been unsettled these days, that damn smart software hasn't appeared, right? Are you going back? Liu Lan took Luo Jian's arm and said leisurely.

"If you want to go back, you will go back together, and you won't go back?" Luo Jian hadn't thought about this issue at all during this time, and when he saw Liu Lan mention it today, he said casually.

"I knew you still wanted to go back, Ting'er was born here, he belongs here, he can't go, I can't go, besides, we took Ting'er away, so that the old lady is still alive?" Liu Lan said bitterly.

The topic raised by Liu Lan was too heavy, and Luo Jian didn't know how to answer, so he could only be silent.

"Xinghua, shall we have another child? Ting'er is so lonely. Liu Lan put her face on Luo Jian's arm and said softly.
