'Got a water-powered machine? Li Chen was very surprised, Datang actually has such a technology, leading the world for hundreds of years, Li Chen is very happy, really happy. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoIf someone has the same idea as him, it is not only a feeling that I am not alone, but also can save him a lot of energy, after all, he is unlikely to be thorough, and there may be negligence.

What's more important is that his strength alone is limited, and cultivating those children is a foundation for him to increase his strength. But if Datang had such strength before, then he only needed a little guidance to get twice the result with half the effort. 'Hurry up. Li Chen was pleasantly surprised.

It's in the Flying Fox Money Shop in Flying Fox County, Ulju. The supervisor replied to Yidao, "During the Yuanhe period, Li Xiangyou made up and restored the Qianfang in Feihu County. ’

By the way, I remember I had a copy of it. The supervisor accused, and after a while, he took back a piece of paper, and Li Chen took it and looked at it carefully.

Li Xiang, not Li Deyu, is his father Li Jifu. He asked Xianzong to restore the money shop in Feihu County, Ulzhou. It is said in the cantata. Feihu County has three rivers, the copper mountain contains a large amount of dozens of miles, 20 miles away from the Feihu Qianfang, the two places use the same local distance from the Ma River water, to the kettle pin. The north minted money everywhere, and the artificial province was extinct. At present, there are old traces that can be used as evidence.

'Dendrobium? Li Chen looked at it with some doubts, how to sell copper for water? Turned copper with water? Wait, this pin should not be melted to mean that dendrobium pin copper, pin, sale, in other words...

Dendrobium, he remembers, this is a container for water, with the water of the same moon from the Ma River in front of him. Meaning, they transport copper with water. Pin, it should be the meaning of transportation, sell out, send out...

'Where is the machinery?' I want machinery, you don't use machinery, just water transportation, how high can the efficiency be? At most, it is more economical.

'Isn't it water?' How do you make money from machinery? The supervisor said blankly, 'Fackler. Li Chen was a little angry, and scolded a national scold from the West, fortunately, no one could understand it at this time, otherwise I am afraid that he would sincerely ask for guilt.

However, even so, Li Chen's attitude could not be called happy, and the two still confessed to Li Chen. 'Minister, go and discuss at once how to transport copper with water power. Please calm the emperor's anger. ’

(Fake), Li Chen is even more angry, but it's okay, this time it's scolded in my heart, I'm not angry at that at all, okay? Forget it..., Li Chen recovered his mood and continued to ask, "How much can this craftsman cast in a day?" ’

Of the eight prisons in the world, this one is the highest, and a worker can mint three hundred and fifty denarii a day. The supervisor said proudly.

'How much?' ''Three hundred and fifty. ''Money? ''Money. Li Chen asked again, and it was determined that it was three hundred and fifty yuan a day. Looking at this room with pride, the three hundred and fifty dollars should be a lot.

It's just that he thought that Li Chen was surprised by the skillfulness of the craftsmen, but he didn't know that Li Chen was surprised, yes, he was also surprised by this quantity, but he was not surprised by the high efficiency, but surprised by the surprisingly low efficiency.

A craftsman can only mint three hundred and fifty coins a day, which is still very efficient. Li Chen didn't know what to say. The efficiency is so low, it's just terrible low. A craftsman only costs three hundred and fifty dollars a day, and he is not consistent.

He had seen a small video showing how commemorative coins were made. I saw the craftsman take a long handle, press it on top of a round metal sheet, and strike it with a hammer, and it was finished. That's one money. The whole process took about a few seconds.

Three hundred and fifty dollars a day, one is counted as ten seconds, and it is good to give it to Western craftsmen, that is, three thousand five hundred seconds... It's less than an hour. I heard that people can knock out 60,000 in a day. In other words, you have to work for more than ten days, and people will finish it in one day.

"Well, let me tell you first, I plan to use machinery to mint money, and I will use a waterwheel, and when the time comes, I will move the coinage prison to the bank of the Weishui River outside." You are ready to relocate. I'd better do it myself, but who is going to study it? That's right, look for Gundam.

He thought of a few people he knew in Yangzhou through Luo Yin. Now Yangzhou has a foundation, Wei Xuan helps him manage it, Zheng Peipei helps take care of the part of the theater, and Wei Xuan has full authority to preside over the entire operation, including sea trade, tea, and research.

With his support, Yangzhou has gathered a lot of talents. Because of the gathering of likes, they all know a lot of people in this area, because of Li Chen's strong support, they call friends and companions, and the more they play, there are about more than ten kinds of research now.

There are also dozens of personnel. Li Chen didn't know that there were so many strange people in the entire Tang Dynasty.

While researching, they did research that they were interested in, did research related to the knowledge that Li Chen revealed in advance, and also helped to teach. It costs hundreds of thousands of dollars a year.

Why does Li Chen want to make money desperately, because Yangzhou can earn nearly one million a year, but spending money is even more fierce. What's more, he still has a lot of plans to carry out in Yangzhou, for example, to send people to Japan to negotiate with their Daimyo and cooperate with them to develop mines. Japan has a large number of mines, high quality, worthy of being a volcanic country, and it would be a pity not to make good use of it. Therefore, Yangzhou can't provide him with too much money, 100,000 a year is about the same.

(Just bring some of them over and study the matter for me.) Li Chen secretly decided, thinking like this while walking.

It may be very difficult to do this, saint. ''Difficult? Hearing that Li Chen was going to transfer the money prison, the young government supervisor spoke.

'Yes, at present, the banks of the Weishui River are full of waterwheels. The young superintendent replied, evoking Li Chen's memories, the last time he went hunting, when he arrived on the bank of the Weishui River, it was really full of waterwheels, and he could almost hear the whimpering and crying of the river.

Grass, why didn't I think of this, when the **** was there, I didn't let him dismantle it, but now I am going to be this villain.

Hmph, it's demolished, it's just a waterwheel, even if it's built by some royal relatives, it's not a big deal.

However, as an emperor, he is not free to do whatever he wants, he can demolish it if he wants, Li Chen's brain moved, and he thought of a way, the Water Conservancy Law, to set a law to prohibit this.

It is not allowed to fill the waterwheel like this, and the establishment of the waterwheel must be applied for and taxed. Yes, pay taxes, they are rich people anyway, and if you want to use them, you will pay taxes to me.

If someone wants to say that this is an evil law, Li Chen can refute him, the benefits of the mountains and rivers in the world belong to the Son of Heaven, which has been stipulated since ancient times.

Yes, this decree is inevitable. Today, not only to mint money, but also to use water conservancy machinery in the future, before the steam engine was studied, water conservancy was the most convenient machinery. Wind power? Where it is unstable and windy, it is not necessarily suitable to use the wind.

The water power is convenient and stable, and it is destined to be used by him in the future, so this water conservancy law must be stipulated. Otherwise, the situation of Weihe will one day be repeated in other places in the world.

I know this matter, I'll take care of it, just get ready to move." Li Chen said in a deep voice, "Then, may I ask the saint again, do the other seven eunuchs in the world have to move?", the young eunuch asked another question.

It turned out that in order to save a little money in the Tang Dynasty, they would directly set up money supervisors in the copper-producing area to be responsible for coinage. Therefore, in addition to the prison of Chang'an, there are seven prisons distributed everywhere in the world.

'Well..., not yet. Li Chen thought about it and said, "The other seven eunuchs, statistically, if it is feasible to cast money mechanically, I plan to concentrate in one place and produce it in large quantities, and in other places, as long as the minerals are preliminarily smelted and sent to Chang'an." ’

Then, Li Chen went to the Ordnance Prison. The Ordnance Warden was already waiting outside. While greeting him, he still muttered in his heart, how is this emperor, after getting rid of Ma Wei, he still loves to run to the ordnance superintendent, and he is not doing his job.

Li Chen didn't know what he was thinking, and if he knew, he would definitely give him a kick. The main purpose of his visit today is to see if he can increase the output of Datang ordnance or reduce costs.

Before visiting, he not only saw Datang's ordnance, but also had some ideas for improving Datang's ordnance production. I was just afraid of **** before, so I didn't dare to bring it up. Now, while waiting for Li Deyu to enter Beijing, it is an opportunity to deal with these things.

'I want you to build a few armor sets to try. Li Chen said to a few leading craftsmen. 'I don't know how the saints will fight to get armor?' It turned out to be several sets of armor, and when they heard this request, several craftsmen breathed a sigh of relief.

Could it be that the saint is obsessed with armor? I don't know how the saint wants to get armor, how to be gorgeous? Or is it special? Or it should be lighter and easier to move.

Just when they were imagining what the armor Li Chen wanted to build should be, and what they should do if the emperor asked them to design it, everyone was dumbfounded when they heard Li Chen's request. Li Chen's request, in fact, is very simple in style.

The Chinese have armor, and in Li Chen's impression, they are all similar to Shanwen armor. From the Han Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, it was like this. The extreme development is the Song Dynasty Debu Renjia, which is very heavy and has good defense.

It seems that in the Ming Dynasty, this situation gradually changed. Because gunpowder weapons had to be used extensively, so-called cotton armor appeared.

The neighboring country got Japan, and the same was true in the early days, and the armor in the early days was also influenced by the Tang Dynasty. However, in the later period, I don't know if it was influenced by Westerners, and the whole piece of armor in the West began to appear. Until the end of the shogunate, it was armor like this.

Westerners have a wide variety of armor, but the familiar ones are probably chain mail and knight armor. A knight's armor is a piece of armor.

Li Chen has always been very curious, and when the Japanese talk about it, there are frequent wars. Later, the Japanese switched to Western-style armor, and the Chinese have always used this kind of armor, so which armor is better?

Li Chen was very curious, so he wanted the craftsman to create it, and actually compare it to see which kind of armor was better. Armor is nothing, and what makes those craftsmen dumbfounded is the way it is built. (To be continued.) )
