The huge income from the bandits made Lin Haijiang not have to worry about the lack of money for a long time, but Lin Haijiang still looked a little farther, the deep processing of opium was close to success, there was a small boiler in the northwest corner of the main fortress of Old Port No. 1, and there were guards with guns all around the white three-story building.

In the basement of the small building, hundreds of shirtless Indonesian natives are boiling the finished opium in dozens of large copper pots, where they carry out the first refining process of opium, and then send the refined paste to the second floor for further processing into heroin for future generations, and these remaining residues will not be wasted.

On the first floor of Xiaobailou, more than 100 Indonesian natives poured boiled apple juice into a copper pot, then mixed the refined large tobacco residue and a part of the large tobacco paste into the pot, slowly stirred evenly, boiled into a brown sugar syrup, and then fished out to dry.

After drying, the paste-like object is sent to the third floor, and the third floor is the packaging workshop of Fushou paste, and the dried brown sugar is flattened by the machine, cut into squares, wrapped in tin foil and packed into glass bottles, and the so-called Fushou paste is processed.

This cheap drug has a slight bitterness of traditional Chinese medicine, and has a faint apple fragrance, Lin Haijiang's price is very low, in the name of health care products, medicine, propaganda can be cured, toothache, stomach pain, cold, pain in the muscles and bones, etc., there is a disease to cure the disease, no disease to strengthen the body.

The dumping scope of Fushou paste was initially set in Yuben and North Korea, and it was also aimed at the poor class in Europe, and for the upper class of Europe, Lin Haijiang introduced a vicious advertising system and packaging system, and put the troublesome heroin into a delicate and exquisite nose pot.

Through Miller, Lin Haijiang found a number of collaborators in England and France, and the first thousands of numbered snuff bottles were given away free of charge to people from all walks of life, and began to promote the VIP admission system compiled by Lin Haijiang.

Whenever a large party is initiated, the owner is completely different and makes others indignant, and non-VIP members will not be entertained, high-level private parties.

It can be said that everyone in Europe's high-class clubs lives for the sake of being extraordinary, and every day is seeking to be different or extraordinary.

When they found out that there were some people whose status was far lower than their own and they had been treated in a way that did not match their status, their first reaction was that I want it too!

The successful operation of "Kang Ti Ti" was expected by Lin Haijiang, and he introduced the concept of MLM in a very timely manner, which can make money while consuming, so why not? Moreover, the recreation club also launched a very gentleman's new competitive amusement project such as skeet shooting, float amusement, hunting, etc., so that recreation clubs all over Europe have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.

Lin Haijiang deliberately lowered the purity of heroin, so that the addict could not develop particularly strong dependence and side effects for a considerable period of time.

Lin Haijiang maintained a high degree of vigilance against heroin, because he remembered that in 1874, in 1874, St. Saint-Martin, London. A chemist from Queen Mary Hospital, United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, added acetic acid to morphine to produce two white crystalline powders.

At that time, it was tested on dogs, and some terrible symptoms such as prostration, fear, and sleepiness immediately appeared. After more than 10 years, German chemists announced that this compound has an analgesic effect 4-8 times higher than morphine, and has a miraculous effect on bronchitis, bronchial asthma, tuberculosis and other frequencies.

Later, it was found that it not only has a good pain-relieving effect, but also a stronger psychedelic bliss, and at the same time has an extraordinary refreshing effect. By 1898, the German Bell Medicinal Chemistry Company began mass production, which was intended to treat morphine addicts, and was marketed as a strength anesthetic, officially named heroin for clinical use.

Heroin was once abused as a drug, causing a catastrophe in Europe, where drug users were immersed in a semi-narcotic state, where only pleasure existed, and no other sensations remained. After being intoxicated, I had nothing else to think about, only interested in white powder, and just wanted to smoke white powder again. This is the intoxication effect, as the pleasure wears off quickly, followed by tolerance, dependence, and habit of drugs.

With the prolongation of drug use, more and more drugs are needed to produce the original effect, otherwise it will not be enjoyable. Drug tolerance is increasing. At this time, once the white powder is cut off into the body, the withdrawal symptoms after addiction are very intense, and the painful and unbearable torture is waiting for him. The nostalgia for that dream-like feeling, and the painful experience of withdrawal, make the drug addict fall into the drug pool, and it is difficult to extricate himself. At this time, the body has adapted to the drug, developing physical and psychological dependence, and over time, the drug addict slowly begins to break down mentally and physically.

Heroin is ten times more harmful than opium, and the British almost destroyed China with opium, so Lin Haijiang retaliated for using heroin, a drug of cross-era significance, to corrode and destroy the British, but Lin Haijiang was very clear that this would be a double-edged sword.

The dumping of Yueben and North Korea was handed over to Shen Tianfu, but Lin Haijiang solemnly warned Shen Tianfu that he must not get this poison or sell such things back to China.

With the continuous expansion of business, Shen Tianfu was even appreciated by Tokugawa Ieding, the Tokugawa shogunate, and a large amount of dumping can be said to be a wide source of money.

On February 2, 1856, Lin Haijiang, who was the commander of the Nanyang Naval Division, even rejected Ye Mingchen's invitation to come to the palace, and rushed to the old port with his team and Wang Faren, Xu Dawei, Zhang Zheng, Gao Qi, Liu Quansi, etc., who were known as the number one lackeys.

In order to welcome the first batch of five warships brought back from Prussia and the first batch of students, the old port was full of lights today, but Cruna, the conscientious financial director of the old port, had a gloomy face, and the first thing she said after seeing Lin Haijiang was to sue his father Lawrence, saying that Lawrence's excessive extravagance was equivalent to waste, and such a welcome ceremony would definitely be banned in the future.

Lin Haijiang didn't dare to express his position lightly, this incident was also a public matter, and it was also a private matter, the little ambiguity between him and Clouna and his respect for Lawrence made him also in a dilemma, and Wang Faren rescued him in time at the critical time.

Five protective armored cruisers, flying the Prussian naval flag and carrying the first batch of 378 cadets who graduated from Prussia, finally arrived at their destination in the Old Port after a three-month voyage.

Lin Haijiang, who was standing at the dock of the old port, could be said to be full of spring breeze at this moment, this batch of warships and students finally returned, and his long-term investment seemed to be the most intuitive return for the first time? Thinking of the money paid one by one in the past, Lin Haijiang was smiling and heartbroken every time.

At the same time, it has also solved the dilemma of Lin Haijiang's long-standing lack of officers, and Lin Haijiang has negotiated with the Prussian side to invite senior instructors of various arms of the army and navy to come to the old port, and at the same time as the establishment of the Supreme Staff Headquarters, the shelf of the military academies of the military branches of the military has also been established, after all, talent is the first combat strength.

The fleet formed a front triangular side formation slowly lowered the Prussian naval flag, raised the flag of the Imperial Chinese Navy and the Prussian naval flag, and saluted with flags.

Looking at the behemoth slowly sailing towards the port, the three towering chimneys and masts made Lin Haijiang's heart surge, and Ben Johann, the deputy chief designer of the Prussian Hamburg Shipyard, who was standing next to Lin Haijiang, introduced a sentence with a smile, and Wang Jin, a student who returned to the old port, translated a sentence at the same time.

Ben John has always looked at Lin Haijiang with a very admiring gaze, because he knows very well that many of the excellent designs with extremely high practical surnames on the Hamburg-class armored protection cruiser come from this mysterious oriental young man beside him, this extremely friendly young man seems to have too many secrets, as mysterious as the Chinese empire that he has never heard of, which is also the main purpose of his insistence on coming to the East to help build a shipyard. Because he learned that the smelter in Sumatra had smelted a high-quality steel plate that had never been seen before, and that it was not a dream to build a larger, more protective armored ship with higher protection only with high-quality steel plates.

However, what impressed John Ben the most was the design concept of Lin Haijiang's so-called Xiuzhen battleship, but it was an incompleteable challenge in the current shipbuilding industry, and it was officially because it was difficult to complete, which aroused Ben John's great interest, and he was eager to have in-depth face-to-face exchanges with Lin Haijiang.

Lin Haijiang also knew that Ben John was the designer who insisted on starting construction of five ships in succession, that is, the guy he wanted to beat up the most at that time, smooth shape, dark gray paint, fully enclosed huge combined turret, and the previous sailless speed sailing, the speed of 13 knots made De Lin Haijiang very satisfied, he knew that his silver was not in vain, and his suggestions and opinions to the Germans seemed to have been digested and integrated into the Germans.

From this shipbuilding cooperation, Lin Haijiang personally felt the rigor and pragmatism of the Germans, and it can be said that it was a very correct choice to choose Prussia as a partner before.

Except for the No. 5 ship numbered HD05, which adopted the latest vertical twin-shaft steam engine and made a few improvements, the displacement and armament of the five sister ships were basically the same.

The total length of the standard hull is 98 meters, the waterline is 92 meters long, the width of the ship is 18.5 meters, the draft is 4.5 meters, the standard displacement is 6011 tons, the full load displacement is 6335 tons, the power is six Germut boilers, two large horizontal reciprocating air intake steam engines, double shaft propulsion, single engine horsepower 3900 horsepower, the maximum coal load 600 tons, the maximum full sail speed speed of 14 knots, and the endurance of 1950 nautical miles [10] knots.

The ship has a crew of 560 people and has 6 260 mm 20 times the caliber main guns, and the main guns are arranged as one twin front main gun, which is installed in a pear-shaped armored enclosure in the bow building.

The other two main guns are located in the middle of the ship, one on each side, the turret is surrounded by armor, itself does not move, the guns in the turret can rotate automatically, with armored gun cover cover, and the other is located on the aft deck.

After reviewing the students, Lin Haijiang couldn't wait to board the battleship numbered HD02, but Lin Haijiang quickly discovered some unreasonable design of the battleship, in order to emphasize the high speed and endurance, as well as the protective armament, so more space was occupied to install boilers, steam engines and coal bunkers, resulting in the living space on the ship almost became the inner compartment of the submarine, and the crew on the ship needed a lot of familiarity and training, Lin Haijiang was a little speechless.

You must know that most of the ironclad ships of various countries in the same period in history used only two or three boilers, but Lin Haijiang used six, otherwise how could he push a large steam engine with a double-shaft configuration, but for the layout of the deck, he was forced to adopt the design of double air ducts, so in the appearance of the ship, there are still three chimneys in the center of the ship.

It can be said that Prussia's construction of this large ironclad ship without a large ship has already caused a storm in Europe, and the era of the arms race of the giant ship cannon doctrine seems to have begun in advance.

In the Great Hall of the Old Port, Lin Haijiang honored the first 20 of the first batch of cadets who returned, and each cadet was awarded an honorary saber symbolizing the first cadets of the Imperial Chinese Navy.

The first batch of students to study in Prussia can be said to have been carefully selected by Lin Haijiang's father, Lin Hanlin, and they have something to do with the Lin family, and most of the students' academic performance is far from meeting Lin Haijiang's expectations.

In terms of ability and loyalty, Lin Haijiang did not hesitate to choose loyalty, which is also the main reason why he sent the cadets to Prussia for education.

You must know that in the late nineteenth century, the construction technology of naval ships in various countries around the world can be described as a thousand miles, from the wooden hull with hemp silk rubber twist seams, butt keels, and wooden gun carriage cables to pull the backseat bronze or iron cannon, to the development of wooden lined steel hulls in 1855, horizontal steam engines with ten cable sail power, eighteen-pound breech-loading guns, and then to all-steel hulls with high-carbon alloy armor in 1895, steel eight-inch rear-loading rapid-fire guns and 15-inch giant guns, water-tube boilers, and three-rise steam turbines.

It can be said that this is an era of sea power, and if you don't pay attention, you will be left far behind by the times, so Lin Haijiang attaches so much importance to the cultivation and selection of talents.

Historically, the armament of the Beiyang Fleet in the early days of its establishment can be said to be relatively advanced in the world, but it is a pity that the Westernization Movement of the Qing Dynasty has only just opened a window in the Chinese scholar class, and the Western-style officials are only thinking about their own status, and they do not really want to become a scientific and technological power, and it will take a long time for their rotten minds to truly understand this vast world.

The Empress Dowager Cixi has lived in the deep palace for a long time, and her main focus is also on how to stabilize the domestic situation, and she is not inferior to anyone in terms of political maneuvers and suppression of rebellion. But how could she see the tremendous development of the world's navies from the concerts and turns of several ministers? It is necessary to purchase foreign parts, coal, oil, and medicine every year to maintain its armed forces, and to sit and eat empty consumption. What's more, even if you want to retire and sell the ships that can still be used, and replace them with more expensive and staggering new ships? In her experience, either the ministers and ministers were deceived by the foreign compradors, or they changed the law to increase their strength by withholding the money from the provinces!

So there is no doubt that the fate of the Beiyang Naval Division is extremely tragic!

Historically, the main ships of the Beiyang Fleet are basically from Germany, and Britain itself is a pair of slenders who have hooked up with each other, so it is impossible to sell good ships to China, and now the nine so-called ironclad ships owned by Lin Haijiang are actually just armored cruisers, even if the tonnage is close to the Zhiyuan ship of the capital ship, Lin Haijiang still follows the design and construction mode of armored cruisers.

Although Lin Haijiang also longs for the capital ship, but due to the limitation of the horsepower of the steam engine, even if the capital ship of more than 8,000 tons is built, its speed may only hover at 8 knots or even 7 knots, after all, the tonnage of the ship exceeds a certain range, and it is not something that the installation of a twin-shaft steam engine can bear.

It can be said that Lin Haijiang's choice of Krupp was really a wise choice, in the words of later generations, Krupp's cannon is really fucking powerful!

Because of the camouflage chosen by the Prussians and the method of sailing with a single ship and merging one by one, Britain, France and other countries did not perceive these five armored ships, and even if they did, Britain and France would not believe that an Eastern country would have such courage.

In the courtyard of the Governor's Mansion in the old port, Lin Haijiang organized a large-scale dinner, but the dinner was not a common Western-style cold banquet, but an authentic Chinese round table, Lin Haijiang deliberately created an atmosphere, deliberately said that the best of this group of cadets will become the cornerstone and backbone of the future Old Port Naval Academy.

Tang Zhiqiang, Qin Shuige, Guan Chao, Xu Muchen, Du Haipeng, Ma Jiang, and Ma Tao brothers are all extremely good candidates for captain, especially Ma Jiang and Ma Tao, who graduated from the Prussian Naval Academy as tied for the first place, which is also the only special case of the Prussian Naval Academy for many years.

The Prussians, who could not compete with the British on the sea, placed more emphasis on the army, but this did not in any way affect their rigorous shipbuilding and the quality of their teaching.

There are talented people in the country, and many ordinary people are just buried by the torrent of the times because they don't have a strong background or luck, and they don't have the opportunity to show their talents.

And for ultra-nationalists like Wu Hai, Liu Jing, and Luo Chen, they are more suitable to join the upgraded Intelligence Special Detective Department, and an excellent mechanic like Zhang Xiaopeng is even more valuable, and it is Lin Haijiang's consistent principle to use only one talent, although the old port seems to be prosperous for a while, but Lin Haijiang knows that it is all superficial, and if it is not my race, its will will be different, although Lin Haijiang unconditionally trusts Lawrence, it does not mean that he also unconditionally believes in the people below Lawrence.
