Chapter 124 Drawings of machine tools
After the promulgation of the new calendar, the Salvation Army Weekly also launched a huge public opinion offensive for the first time.
Of course, Zhang Hongbin also fulfilled his promise and sent a copy of this calendar to Daming, and wrote down the meaning of the birth of this calendar. As Zhang Hongbin expected, the officials affirmed the calendar, but Emperor Chongzhen did not approve of it. In his opinion, the anti-thief calendar must be completely denied, even if it is reasonable. Sometimes political opponents, or between two opposing forces, are so childish and unreasonable.
Seeing that the calendar he worked so hard to compile was not adopted by the Ming Dynasty, Xu Guangqi was also a lot older. As the saying goes: My moon will compare my heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch. His own efforts are not recognized by the object of allegiance, and it is absolutely false to say that he is not discouraged by a little bit.
Xu Guangqi became an otaku again, but the Xu family followed Zhang Hongbin's instructions to let Xu Guangqi use a massage chair and foot massager every day to loosen his muscles and bones, and ordered at least three times a day, a total of two hours of exercise. Whether it's indoor sports or going out to exercise, it must be performed, otherwise Zhang Hongbin will ruin all his works.
Well, this directly poked Xu Guangqi's weakness. Besides, even if he was unhappy, he knew that Zhang Hongbin was for his good, so he had no choice but to acquiesce. It is such a small change that makes Xu Guangqi fall deeper and deeper, and eventually he will inevitably fall completely to Zhang Hongbin's side. It's just that then again, at his age, he doesn't know how many years he will be able to live.
Zhang Hongbin is still very satisfied with Xu Guangqi's transformation.
However, at the moment, his attention was not on this, just because his consumption had already met 100,000 taels of silver, which meant that an area could be opened.
It is said that in order to open the rest of the area faster, it should be the luxury area. There may be very few rich people in China and even rich people in the world, but they are all people who can spend a lot of money. Especially those nobles and royal families who enjoy the benefits of the Ming Dynasty, the money in their hands is the real astronomical amount.
It's just that after Zhang Hongbin confirmed the technology process of the fifth layer, he couldn't help but be very curious, what kind of surprises would await him in the book area that appeared in such a situation. In his opinion, even if there is the most advanced weapons and equipment, it is not as good as a book on the most advanced technology. In the end, the development of industry still depends on itself, and the system is only used for emergency purposes, and it is not good to rely too much, even if there is no principle of wartime shutdown.
Take a hundred steps back and say, even if it is a luxury area, God knows what the so-called luxury is, and the market recognition is high. If it was a luxury for the people of the time, but no one recognized it in this plane, or was willing to pay a high price for the goods, then it was not worth opening that area.
For example, something like jadeite will naturally be a very noble and expensive thing in the future, but when jadeite is not popular in this era, the value of this thing is not very large. In the future, it can be sold at a sky-high price, although it is not enough to sell cabbage at a price, but naturally it cannot be sold at a good price. If you buy such a luxury item, it seems that there is no practical benefit except for spending money.
After enjoying the sales of more than 300% of the profit, let alone Zhang Hongbin now, even Zhang Hongwen can't accept the transaction of less than 300% profit. Well, the taste is completely raised.
The book area was finally opened, and the moment it was really opened, Zhang Hongbin closed his eyes directly, clasped his hands into fists, and prayed silently in his heart: I hope that this time the book area can have some valuable books.
It is not denied that there are also the first three floors, but they are far from the Cheng dù he needs.
When the book area opened, Zhang Hongbin was still a little hesitant, he was worried that there would still be no books that could satisfy him this time. For the fear of the unknown, he walked very slowly, and he walked for a minute in the area that could have been reached in three seconds.
Eventually, he made it to the book section and saw the section of the bookshelf where books could be purchased.
In terms of agriculture, some information about breeding, mixed farming, and mixed planting techniques are here, as well as some relevant knowledge of epidemic prevention and disease prevention. When it comes to plants, there are even some grafting techniques. You must know that many varieties in later generations are actually grafted, such as vegetables and fruits such as peaches and plums.
In terms of military affairs, there are design drawings of various guns and artillery in the nineties of the nineteenth century, and the drill codes of the military schools of that era.
In terms of industry, which is also what Zhang Hongbin is most concerned about, it contains various technologies before the beginning of the 20th century. From the latest steelmaking equipment drawings at that time, the design drawings of various components, and the design drawings of hydraulic universal lathes. And, of course, the blueprints of the most advanced steam engines.
Among these books, what Zhang Hongbin paid the most attention to was still the drawings of steelmaking equipment and the drawings of universal lathes.
In the past, this could help one's territory obtain better steel, and among other things, the weight of artillery and guns could be reduced considerably, and the safety could also be improved; The latter is also crucial, the universal lathe with the right tools can improve the efficiency of the firecracker, and the most important thing is that the universal lathe can be used to make other specialized lathes, such as milling machines and drilling machines. At that time, it will be possible to completely get rid of the era of manual drilling of gun barrels.
Seeing this drawing, Zhang Hongbin's breathing suddenly accelerated by fifty percent.
It's no nonsense, the first time with the drawings of steelmaking equipment, coking equipment and universal lathes, back to reality. Regardless of the fact that it was already a little dark now, I came to the Fire Hammer Workshop without saying a word. He knew that Old Wood was still working overtime here.
Just like those crazy scientists, researchers like Lao Mu are so oblivious to the point that they forget to eat and sleep. Rao is reminded that he also works overtime, and he spends very little time on eating and sleeping.
"Wood, haven't you gone back yet?" Zhang Hongbin knocked on the door of the research room, and no one from the guards outside dared to stop him.
"Who...... Your Highness, how did you come here at this time? "Lao Mu is studying well, and he hates others arguing about him the most, so he originally planned to turn around and scold a few words, but who knew that after seeing Zhang Hongbin, he could only change his flattering expression.
It can be seen that under the flattery, there is a hidden dissatisfaction, this old guy doesn't know how to disguise.
"I bring you three drawings, I hope that these three new products must be launched within a month, and at the same time, the finished products must appear within three months." Zhang Hongbin handed over the drawings he had just gotten.
When Lao Mu saw Zhang Hongbin handing over the drawings, he immediately took them. According to his past experience, he naturally knew that the drawings that Zhang Hongbin could attach so much importance to must be good things. As a result, when I opened it, I couldn't take my eyes off it.
Zhang Hongbin didn't say anything, just sat down silently on the side, enjoying the tea that had just been brought in by the guards.
"Who designed these three drawings is really genius! I'm an old woodman, and I really want to meet him and talk to him. After watching it for thirty minutes, the old wood sighed.
"It's a pity that you can't see him, and he doesn't want to see you. I just want to know, can I do it when I said before? Zhang Hongbin poured cold water on him.
"That's a shame...... As for trying to make zuò, it is not difficult, and it should still be achievable with the current manpower and technical reserves in three months. Mu sighed regretfully, and then looked up confidently and said to Zhang Hongbin.
"Well, get ready, I'm looking forward to seeing the results. Also, in the future, I will order you to go home and rest after that point, otherwise your salary and benefits will be deducted, and if you commit three consecutive offenses, you will be directly dismissed as a researcher and I will go back to work in the workshop. You know no, your son has come to complain three times, saying that we are detaining you and not giving you home, knowing that this matter has been reflected, how many people are so aggrieved? Zhang Hongbin said angrily.
"This ...... I'll go back......" Old Wood stuck out his tongue like a seaman.
Thinking about it, he also realized that he didn't seem to have been home for a long time.
