"I didn't expect Lao Zhao to get us back a territory about the same size as Cambodia."

Wang Yi was having dinner with Wu Xiao and Li Yuzhen, Li Yuzhen frowned a little and said, "Sir, we are expanding a little too fast, and the problem in Nanyue Province this time is also a wake-up call." We need time to integrate these places. ”

Wu Xiao also nodded and said, "What Lao Li said is that something like Ruan Fu's rebellion would not have happened in the Northeast or even North Korea, but the Intelligence Bureau does not have that much power in the four southern provinces now. And the army and police system has not been established. ”

"It's okay, you have to eat the meal bite by bite, and you have to do it step by step." Wang Yi was not worried.

"But the new province is even more troublesome, and Siam has taken people away." Li Yuzhen said. "If it weren't for the armed intervention of our troops, these people could have turned the area into a desert."

Wang Yi also felt that this matter was more difficult to deal with, and said, "Discuss with Daqing, how about we get some more people?" ”

"Still getting people? Don't look at the Qing Dynasty, there are 400 million people, but in the past two years, we have been asking for immigration, and the number of people who can move is almost the same! Li Yuzhen said. How much money did we spend just to resettle the migrants? ”

Wang Yi probably had an impression of this, and Japan's war reparations were basically spent on the development of these new provinces.

"Sir, you see, it's a lot of money to resettle migrants, and it's another money to renovate the local infrastructure. It's a lot of money to build a school, and it's a lot of money to build an army......"

"Understood, understood!" Wang Yi was forced to choke enough by Wu Xiao and Li Yuzhen, and Qianjia was also there today, laughing with Jiang Jiaren and Han Xiujing.

"Speaking of which, this Chulalongkorn Emperor is a talent, and judging by the policies he has implemented, he is much stronger than the Qing court's wine bags and rice bags." After lunch, Wu Xiao looked at the follow-up report and sighed.

Li Yuzhen also nodded and said, "That's true!" Military, educational, tax, internal affairs, etc., the reforms are carried out in a comprehensive way, and they are carried out steadily. If it weren't for the fact that Siam's territory was too small and its national strength was insufficient, it might not have been able to make a difference in Southeast Asia. ”

"We have our Northeast Autonomous Region in the east, the British in the west, and it's not bad to have him in the middle of such a buffer zone!" Wu Xiao looked at the map. "The 1st Infantry Division is to be transferred back to the Northeast, the 5th Infantry Division will remain in the new Siam Province, the 5th Artillery Division will remain in Laos, the Marines will already be in charge of Cambodia, the 1st North Vietnamese Division will return to North Vietnam, and the 1st Lao Division will return to Laos...... Is there some space in South Vietnam Province? ”

"It's okay, our native Second Artillery Division will go over and set up defenses."

"And what about the position of the 2nd Division on the Northern Front?" Wu Xiaodao.

"Replaced by the newly formed Sixth Artillery Division, it can also be regarded as training." Wang Yi said with a smile, "As for the Second Artillery Division after it arrives in South Vietnam, your Army Academy and Naval Academy will also open branches in the five provinces of Southeast Asia. ”

"Understood!" Wu Xiao knew about Wang Yi coming to him this time.

After Wu Xiao and Li Yuzhen left, Shen Yazhi came back from outside with Lim Tae-hee and Kim Yoon-a. In the past two years, Shen Yazhi has become more and more beautiful and moving, and after training, she has gradually reined in the eccentricity of the past and become much calmer. Of course, in front of Wang Yi, she is still the same as before, delicate and straightforward. Qianjia is similar, but she is always a little bit of a fan of money, but she is as calm as before, and she is very gentle to Wang Yi.

"Let's go, I'll take you to see something new." After taking a nap, Wang Yi was obviously happy.

"See what?" Shen Yazhi was curious.

Wang Yi held her in his arms and said, "If you don't go and see it, you'll know." ”

"Fran, prepare the carriage and go to the industrial room."

Knowing that Wang Yi was coming, the researcher in the industrial room was already waiting at the door to greet him. This is the Automobile Research Institute of Dashang, which was established in 1879, and it has been seven years since then. However, due to technology, the state of the cars produced is not stable. In 1883, researchers built the first four-wheeled car made of a hybrid structure of wood and steel. It was not until the end of 1883 that Dashang Iron and Steel Company, at the request of Wang Yi, began the development of automobile steel, and finally invented the all-metal body after three years. This is mainly due to the technical information provided by Wang Yi, otherwise the research and development time may have to be added ten years, or even longer.

When the two carriages stopped and Wang Yi walked down with the six girls, the group of beasts in the research institute were immediately shocked. Kevin Nicholas, Liu Xiaoshan, Zhang Mingqi, these project leaders immediately greeted them, and they were ten thousand times more enthusiastic than seeing Wang Yi on weekdays.

"Boss, you're here." Kevin Nicholas is in his thirties, with deep facial features and a handsome body. It is said that there is the title of a thousand female killers in the industrial real room, of course, in the world of the Automobile Research Institute, where there are basically no girls, Wang Yi suspects that Kevin's nickname is more of their own imagination.

"Go see the car!"

There were three cars parked in the venue, the youngest of which was somewhat similar to the classic Ford car that Wang Yi had seen in his later life. The other two cars, one is half-cut and the other is much taller, looking very much like the Jiefang trucks of later generations.

These three cars are Kevin Nicholas, Liu Xiaoshan, and Zhang Mingqi are respectively responsible for the development of the project.

Wang Yi knows a lot about cars, and he had two cars before he wore them, one was a BMW and the other was an Aston Martin. Coupled with the information in hand, the three cars in front of them are basically the same in structure as later generations.

A few girls looked like they liked Kevin's car, but it actually looked more like a carriage with four tires underneath. There was a special driver on it, and Kevin was in charge of explaining it, although more often than not, it was telling jokes and making a few girls rattle. However, Wang Yi didn't care too much, except for the slower running of this car, the maximum speed was only 50 kilometers per hour, and there was not much else to find fault with.

"The car is good, it would be better if the shape could be changed, otherwise it looks like a carriage that can run on its own." Wang Yi sat down and commented.

"Cosmetic changes?" Kevin Nicholas apparently didn't quite understand what Wang Yi meant.

"Forget it, I can't tell for a while, I'll draw the picture in two days, you take it back and study it, I don't expect you to make it, just be a reference."

Kevin nodded. If ordinary people say this, he will probably turn his nose up, but Wang Yi's identity is different, and he has contributed a lot to the manufacturing process of automobiles, so he has also won the respect of this foreigner.

Half of the beauty and the liberation brand are very imposing when they run, but the sound is too loud, similar to the tractors of later generations. Half of the United States is better, after all, it is gasoline. However, the liberation card is violent, with diesel, running up a butt of black smoke, fortunately it is now, and I am afraid that the future generations will not be able to go on the road.

"Big octopus!" Jin Yun'er laughed, she didn't sit on the liberation card, and followed Shen Yazhi and Tong Qianjia to watch below. Looking at the black smoke coming out, I suddenly remembered the octopus on the beach in my hometown.

Shen Yazhi and Tong Qianjia also laughed, and said to Wang: "If there is only one car, it's okay to say, if there are ten or eight cars, it will be almost the same as the monsters in Journey to the West. ”

Zhang Mingqi, who was in charge of the truck research, was a little embarrassed, Wang Yi patted him on the shoulder at this time, and said, "They are joking with you, don't take it too seriously, I am very satisfied with this process." ”

Zhang Mingqi said with a smile: "Mr. is polite, in fact, the ladies are right, the combustion efficiency of the diesel engine is still too poor, so there is so much black smoke." ”

"Okay, it's easy to deal with the problem if you know it."

At this time, Wang Yiyi called Kevin Nicholas, Liu Xiaoshan, and Zhang Mingqi to his side and said, "How long does it take for production capacity to carry out industrial production?" ”

"If you follow the assembly line production method mentioned by Mr., the establishment of the entire automobile production line will take at least about three years of preparation time, and it may not be able to be completed. Coupled with the establishment of other parts factories and the supporting facilities of steel plants, it will take four or five years to complete the set. ”

Wang nodded, which was two years faster than he had expected.

"Okay, I'll give you five years and add another batch of people to you! You should do your best to complete the development and establishment of the production line, and at the same time improve and perfect the existing models. ”

"Yes!"

The automobile industry is a big project, and Wang Yi never thought that it would be completed overnight, and it was impossible. But for now, none of the three cars can satisfy him, but the real thing has finally come out, and the performance of the car is still stable, which means that most of the key technologies have made breakthroughs, at least at this stage.

On the way back, Wang Yi, Shen Yazhi, and Tong Qianjia joked.

"In two years, when you get married, I will personally drive to pick you up!" Wang Yi joked.

"Okay, but don't drive a big car, otherwise you will really become a pig Bajie robbing your relatives." Shen Yazhi laughed.

"I can rob you back, Zhu Bajie is also happy!"

Not long after returning to Ningdao, Wang Yi called Dashang Machine Tool, Dashang Diesel Engine and Dashang Gasoline Engine Factory, asking them to step up the development of new products. At the same time, Premier Yang Qiuxing, as well as relevant officials, have formulated a long-term plan that is beneficial to the development of the automobile industry and corresponding incentive policies, and the automobile industry has been included in the budget for the next few years as a key funding project of the Northeast Autonomous Region government in the next five years.

Many well-informed people came directly to Wang Yi to invest in the auto industry. Wang Yi did not refuse to come, and later directly established an automobile alliance, united all the funds, and handed over to a fund company for operation.

Because of the stimulation of abundant funds and the large increase in the number of practitioners, the automobile industry in Northeast China is developing at a very fast speed, which is much faster than Wang Yi expected. At the same time, private research institutes are emerging, and new patent applications are increasing. This is also the first time after the establishment of Dashang, even if it cannot be said that the whole people participated, but it did drive a surprising trend.
