Because of the matter of using people to clear mines, Yang Meng is really on fire, two or three days of hard work, he just silently asked Xu Ziwei to do government affairs every day, read it to him, after listening, there is no big thing, he left sullenly, if there is a big matter, it is just a few words to give instructions, for Yang Meng, such a nest of gas, more than ten years have not suffered, I think of it in my heart is blocked, and these hatreds, he is also transferring to the British and French forces, if there is no such bastards, how can there be such a thing?

The sullen Yang Sanye, in Xu Ziwei's eyes, is gratifying, if it was a few years ago, Yang Fuliang was designated to be sunk by the third master, not killing Yang Fuliang In addition to because this matter was instructed by himself and the Ding housekeeper in Guangzhou, the most gratifying thing for Xu Ziwei is that the third master is learning to control anger!

The upper position, the anger often falls down, the joy and anger are invisible, the joy of the sky rains, the anger is like thunder and nine heavens, this is the bearing, the age of the third master is still too young, less than thirty years old, the great foundation, the so-called body with sharp weapons, killing intentions, if the third master can curb his own killing heart, that is, the hundred-foot high platform has gone further, plus the unfathomable city of the third master, it will become a big thing!

"Third master, Li Mingfu from Guangzhou is here!"

"Let him come up! Take out the wetsuit drawings I got a few days ago, and you can use them in the future!

Even if the matter of employing people to clear mines this time is over, the way to deal with many things in the future will be based on this, if it is not for ......"

"You've been bored for days, and in the eyes of the Comptroller, that's a good thing. If the third master has learned to control anger. It can be regarded as a real national weapon! ”

"Bullshit! In the past two days, Lao Tzu has turned his anger on the British and French forces. If you don't kill them all, I vow not to give up! It's not easy to kill your own people, so let's take those bastards and get angry! This wretched Lao Tzu has done it!

Anger control? There's a fart! Now this country needs a madman, a madman who dares to take 40,000 people to play with his life, and Lao Tzu is that madman!

Kill! Killing and subduing the Quartet is what Lao Tzu has to do next! ”

Seeing that the third master gritted his teeth and stared at him like a cannibal, Xu Ziwei knew that he was relieved just now, and he was wrong. This master's temperament is still hot!

"Subordinate Li Mingfu has seen the third master!"

"How did you come? Lao Tzu has something I want to explain to you two days ago! ”

Looking at Li Mingfu, who was much older, Yang Meng's anger was also suppressed, Tan Yubin, who went to Guangzhou with Li Mingfu, is now in charge of nearly 100,000 navies and technicians, and the title of the founder of the modern navy cannot run, when Tan Yubin was earning face at the front desk, Li Mingfu paid more hard work than Tan Yubin behind his back.

"Third master, there are too many things in Guangzhou Shipyard and Dawan Shipyard, it took five more days to explain the matter!"

"Good work. You're not too young, you're in your 60s this year, aren't you? ”

"The third master of Domeng remembers. Three out of sixty! ”

The sturdy and swarthy Li Mingfu, if he hadn't worked hard all these years, he might still have black hair! Now his braids have turned gray, the folds on his face are too much, and his eyes are a little cloudy.

"Do you have children in the family? If available, it's a good idea to take over your shift! ”

The son inherits his father's business, this is also Yang Meng's care for his subordinates, there is Jiang Shuxian in Yunnan in the past, and it is nothing to have one more Li Mingfu, but the key one is that the heirs are available, if it is not successful, Yang Meng will give him as much food and clothing as possible!

"Four of the five sons are busy with me, and one has joined the new army, Mingfu knows that the third master is doing big things and good things, Mingfu's body is still okay, and it is not a matter to work for another ten or eight years!

As long as Mingfu can still do things for the third master, he will never die! ”

Li Mingfu's words are somewhat helpless, it seems that the heirs of the family can't inherit the ancestral business!

"But the problem with the heirs?"

"Alas...... The five sons, three of whom were all farming at home in the early years, did not read much and had no spirituality, and could run errands; The fourth child was a person who couldn't stay still, learned boxing from the master and joined the new army; Only the youngest son of the fifth child is still alive, and he has some aura, and he brought it this time, and he wants the third master to give him a palm! ”

"Young sons and grandchildren! Take it with you and see what it's suitable for! ”

"Mingfu has thanked the third master!"

Li Mingfu is honest and naïve, and he relies on Li Mingfu to do practical things, and he admires Li Mingfu Yang Meng very much, and Yang Meng also accepted his request.

When he was not big, Li Mingfu brought in a boy with big eyes, and he looked at the age of seventeen or eighteen, which is not too young, according to the vigor of his eyes, he should be a good official.

"Captain, this kid is good! Take a belt? ”

"The third master opened his mouth, and the chief naturally taught with all his heart."

"Shimmering, I haven't seen the third master yet!"

"Student Li Xianming has seen the third master!"

Yang Meng is optimistic about this Li Xianming, Xu Ziwei looked at it and felt that this kid was not bad, and he also accepted it, listening to the words of the third master and Mr. Xu, Li Mingfu was also happy, if the third master cultivated, his youngest son would have a bright future!

"Li Xianming, a good name, are you willing to follow Mr. Xu to learn to be an official? Can't you say that twenty or thirty years later, you will be the official of the frontier? ”

is different from the stout Li Mingfu, this Li Xianming is handsome, looks good, and has a flexible heart, so being an official should be the best choice.

"Twenty or thirty years? became famous too late, but he wanted to worship the third master as a teacher! ”

Maybe he has seen a lot of big scenes with Li Mingfu, Li Xianming is not afraid of life, and he can speak decently, such a person should be a good official.

"Ho! You kid doesn't have a small tone! Lao Tzu didn't read much, and he couldn't read a few baskets of words, you kid worshipped Lao Tzu as a teacher, but you came to shame the third master? ”

Hearing what the third master said this, it startled Li Mingfu, and without waiting for him to plead guilty, Yang Meng waved his hand and motioned for him to sit aside, just teasing the youngest son of Li Mingfu's family.

"The third master doesn't read much, and he doesn't know it, but my father often says that the third master is a genius. Whether it is Xishan or Guangzhou shipyard. Many things were thought up by the third master. Let's talk about this barge!

Without the idea of the third master, I am afraid that many people can't think of it if they want to break their heads, but now this barge traffic is north and south, and the goods transported in a year are beyond the reach of tens of millions of mules and horses!

In Xianming's view, the level of knowledge is not important, the idea in the heart is the most important, and there is nothing in the heart. Even if there is more knowledge in the stomach, what is the use? ”

"Wanton, Hugh is rude in front of the third master!"

The young Li Xianming inherited the arrogance of young people, and he spoke without any measure, although Lao Tzu Li Mingfu has been glancing, but this kid just ignored it, and even regarded Lao Tzu's scolding as a deaf ear.

"Huh...... Mingfu, your kid has a vision! Ideas are the most important thing!

Most of the people in our family think that Lao Tzu's skills are the most powerful, but Lao Tzu's skills are the best. Compared with the ideas in Lao Tzu's stomach, farts are not counted. It seems that this kid of your family doesn't want to be an official anymore!

Ming, do you want your son to inherit his father's business and make achievements on the road of foreign affairs? ”

The young Li Xianming actually made Yang Meng feel like a bosom friend, and he had visited the Yang family several times, except for Ge Shiyang, no one had ever flattered him so much! If Li Xianming has the heart to inherit his father's business, then he can be regarded as picking up a treasure this time.

"The third master who knows me!"

"Sensei play this with Lao Tzu, come on, come on, this is a few drawings that Lao Tzu got a few days ago, add a few more, if you see what it is for, you apprentice, Lao Tzu will accept it!"

waved his hand and interrupted the somewhat complacent Li Xianming, it is easy to be an official, but it is too difficult to be a scientist who can make achievements! Officialdom requires qualifications and experience, and it is too late to become famous, Li Xianming is right, but it is even more difficult to do scientific play and create zào! Sometimes I am afraid that I will not be able to produce results in a lifetime.

hastily drew a few drawings of the improvised submarine, Yang Meng handed more than a dozen drawings to Li Xianming, if this Li Xianming's foundation is good, maybe he can really become famous quickly by guiding himself?

"Third master, these two things are used in water, right?

These are supposed to be clothes for entering the water in winter, and with this pipe, there is no need to come up to ventilate in shallow water.

This iron can should be used to enter deep water, and with this, the bottom of the sea can also be obtained! ”

Li Xianming's answer, if it rests on ordinary people, it is enough, but he wants to make achievements on the road of science, these alone are absolutely not enough, glanced at Li Xianming, Yang Meng slapped the table a few times, and began to ask questions.

"What were you doing before?"

"Read!"

"For foreign affairs, you don't have much knowledge about the West, right?"

"The third master is sharp-eyed and wanton, and he only went to the Guangzhou shipyard at the beginning of this year to share his father's worries!"

"The brain is enough, but the things in the stomach are insufficient, with your ability to be an apprentice of Lao Tzu with half a bottle of vinegar, it is far worse, so let's do it! During this time, I followed Lao Tzu to run errands, and in my spare time, I picked up Western science and wanted to become famous on the way to foreign affairs, which is not as simple as you think.

Mingfu, do you think this is feasible? ”

Li Xianming is a young man who is not very restrained, but the things in his stomach are far from enough, if Li Xianming can name the shortcomings of the simple submarine and the inability to enter deep water, it will be enough to be a disciple of Yang Meng, but now he is afraid that he can't say it, in European and American physics, he obviously has no achievements.

"The third master is promoting Mingming, Mingfu naturally has no objections!"

In the Yang family, being able to do things by the side of the third master means that the future is immeasurable, looking at his youngest son, Li Mingfu's eyes are full of relief.

"Third master, is there any omission in what you said?"

Li Xianming was obviously dissatisfied with Yang Sanye's evaluation, and he felt that he still knew a lot about the uses of these two things.

"The heart is higher than the sky, the ambition is sparse, and it is you! Whether it is this wetsuit or this submarine, there is a limit on the depth of diving, and even with a wetsuit, it is difficult for this person to dive to a depth of more than ten zhang.

As for this improvised submarine, thirty or fifty meters underwater, this iron can, I'm afraid it's going to deflat, and the glass on the opening will also shatter, you don't have any omissions, you are too far behind!

Don't think that after reading a few years of books, you will feel great, Western science is not much easier than Confucian classics, and it is not good to be complacent at a young age!

Mingfu, let's talk about the output of this anchor mine! Two days ago, because of the Bohai Sea employment of demining, Lao Tzu was very sloppy!

These two things are prepared for demining, but these two things, the depth of the dive is limited, after you go back, you go to the sea to try, this person, at most six or seven zhang dive, how deep this simple submarine can dive, you test it yourself! ”

Li Xianming's matter is a matter of the future, and the most important thing for Yang Meng now is the war, this is a matter in front of him, if he can't pass this hurdle, how can there be a future?

"Third master, Guangzhou shipyard is working hard, in the past few months, there have been 50,000 anchor mines, if the third master wants to increase the output of anchor mines, if the export and self-use tinplate is stopped, Guangzhou shipyard can produce anchor mines in January, 30,000!"

Talking about business, Li Mingfu also took away the joy on his face, and restored the previous rigor, the output of anchor mines cannot be increased, but it needs to stop export and self-use, to put it bluntly, the output of tinplate is somewhat insufficient!

"If it doesn't stop, how long will it take to expand the iron works?"

"Three months, and the production of tinplate, the need for a lot of equipment, and then build a production line, the silver consumption is at least more than 500,000 taels, if it is built according to the tinplate production line of the Guangzhou shipyard today, I am afraid that the silver consumption will be more than one million!"

"Hmmm! If a production line with a production capacity of more than ten times is built on the basis of Guangzhou Tinplate Plant, not to mention machinery and equipment, is the iron production enough for this iron-making way? ”

The production of steel is not subject to the rolling equipment, but to the output of steel. (To be continued......)
