The address of the power plant, naturally, is Pengcheng. Because the current coal is dug up from Pengcheng. Smelting and many heavy factories are now in Pengcheng. Pengcheng Electric Power is naturally the first to supply.

Thermal power generation is naturally based on the principle of steam, so there must be water.

The choice of the site is naturally for Chen Deng and the people from the Ministry of Electric Power to choose.

What Lu Bu does is to draw engineering drawings and provide technical support.

Without electricity, arc welding is not possible.

So before, Lu Bu had not been able to form a large-scale project.

The power plant is naturally a huge project, but Lu Bu must first build a power generation group.

Although there is no arc welding, the welding technology of this era is not too bad.

Now there are three main welding techniques, cast welding, brazing and forging welding.

Cast welding is welding by casting.

Brazing is the use of a metal liquid below the temperature of the molten iron to fill the gap.

Forging welding, on the other hand, is to burn the iron block red, and then hit it on the weldment with an iron hammer to achieve the effect of connection.

With these three welding methods, although the progress of the project will be slow, it can barely support some large frames.

Lu Bu not only had to build a power plant, but also set up oil wells and start drilling oil.

With oil, there is really the blood of industry.

After three years of continuous progress, the equipment used in drilling can be regarded as roughly made.

As for the oil field, Lu Bu doesn't know about it elsewhere, but Xuzhou does.

It is Yangzhou, Taizhou, Yancheng, Huai'an and other places in later generations. These boundaries are also in Guangling County.

As long as oil wells are built, Lu Bu believes that oil can be drilled.

Therefore, Lu Bu had to make preparations for various projects in advance.

Soon, the news of Lu Bu's expedition reached the ears of all the candidates.

After making sure that Lu Bu was not here to fight them, all the candidates breathed a sigh of relief.

Because now they have to be tough with Lu Bu, they can't just do it!

Therefore, it can only be done by engaging in intrigue and trickery.

"Prime Minister, King Chu has a new product!" Xun You found Cao Cao with an object in his hand.

Cao Cao said disapprerovingly: "Lu Bu doesn't produce new products in any month." Don't be in a hurry to buy it, the prime minister dares to conclude that within half a year, this new product will be popularized at a large price. ”

Yes, Lu Bu's business urine, Cao Cao has already thoroughly figured it out. That is, some new products were released in small quantities first, and various advocates of difficult production and limited quantities.

After all the rich people's money was gone, they began to invest in the market in large quantities.

And he knew that this was Lu Bu's method of collecting money, but some people couldn't resist the temptation.

Anyway, whoever owns Lu Bu's new product first will be more able to pretend to be forced.

Although the rich do not yet know the term coercion, this kind of behavior and concept is profound.

With Lu Bu's new products, he didn't immediately show them off.

For example, when Lu Bu made a folding fan, you are special. But anyone who has read a book or two will take a folding fan to show off on the street.

Even some of the old people who don't know how to read and write at all buy them to be elegant.

Well, Cao Cao has also bought several handfuls.

With this thing, the summer is indeed much cooler.

Cao Cao can't either, let the servants help him fan the wind at any time.

Cao Cao didn't care, but Xun You directly handed the object in his hand to Cao Cao: "Prime Minister, you better take a look." It is estimated that after you read it, Prime Minister, it will be more painful than you! ”

What, the flesh hurts.

Cao Cao took the things handed over by Xun You, but he was instantly startled and almost dropped the things in his hand.

Cao Cao instantly exclaimed: "This, this, this!" What kind of mirror is this, how can it be so clear! ”

Yes, the thing in Cao Cao's hand is not an unusual thing, just a glass mirror.

Xun You smiled bitterly: "This is called a glass mirror, and when those people in my family saw this mirror, they made me quarrel." You has already spent three golds, and the prime minister has so many beauties, I'm afraid it will cost even more. ”

"What, three golds, just such a small mirror costs three golds, why don't Lu Bu grab it!" Cao Cao was furious.

Lu Bu did this, and he had no money at all. In one word, poor.

Xun You smiled: "That's not it, a small round mirror like this only costs five hundred yuan." The reason why you spent three gold was to buy a few floor-to-ceiling mirrors. ”

Saying this, Cao Cao exhaled.

But Cao Cao was still helpless, he already had a premonition that his ears were not quiet. What woman doesn't love beauty, and if she has this kind of magic mirror, she doesn't immediately clamoring to buy it.

Although this kind of mirror is more expensive than copper mirrors, it is a hundred times clearer than copper mirrors.

Look, look at his skin, his pores, his nose hair, his white hair.

it!

Cao Cao's heart was instantly cold, and he realized that he actually had white hair.

Nima, he's only 47 years old, why do you have gray hair.

Cao Cao pulled out the white hair and ripped it off.

All of a sudden, Cao Cao instantly felt old.

It seems that all ambitions, at this moment have been dealt a severe blow.

He's old.

On the side, Xun You naturally didn't know Cao Cao's mood that had changed several times, and sighed again: "The current Lu Bu is too strong, with 200,000 elite soldiers, and his weapons and armor are more advanced than those of all the candidates. Its ability to accumulate wealth is even more incomparable, and if it continues like this, I am afraid that in a few years, Lu Bu will be able to dominate the world! ”

Hearing this, Cao Cao smiled and said: "No, at least for twenty years, Lu Bu will not be able to unify the world!" ”

"Oh, why is that?" Xun You was surprised.

Cao Cao laughed again: "Because Lu Bu's military strength is insufficient!" ”

"How could this be!" Xun You said: "Lu Bu now has 200,000 elite soldiers, and he has begun to implement the military service system. In a few years, even hundreds of thousands of strong soldiers will be able to train. In this way, who in the world can stop it! Besides, he still has so many slaves! ”

"Because of the lack of population!" Cao Cao sighed: "Lu Bu's goal is to conquer the world, and his military strength has always focused on external expansion. Although Lu Bu has a large number of slave troops, Lu Bu will not use foreign troops to kill our Han soldiers and civilians. In this way, for at least twenty years, Lü Bu's Han Chinese forces will not expand too much. Only when the next generation grows up will it be the time for Lu Bu to become dominant. ”

"This!" How can Xun You not be surprised: "How can the prime minister know so much about Lu Bu?" ”

Cao Cao sighed bitterly: "This is all news from Xian'er, and there will be no fakes." ”

Xun You was shocked again, he couldn't imagine that Lu Bu's mind was so broad.

Previously, Guo Jia brought back the news, and he still didn't believe it. thought that there must be some ulterior motive for Lu Bu in this.

But now it seems that he is thinking too much.

In order for the Han people not to kill each other and reduce the population, they did not take the initiative to provoke wars.

With Lu Bu's strength, he now has the ability to dominate the world.

But for the sake of the outside, Lu Bu gave up the inside.

Both of them were silent at this moment, feeling a trace of powerlessness in front of Lu Bu.

Cao Cao also sighed, once upon a time, his dream was to become the general of the Han Dynasty and expand the territory for the Han Dynasty.

However, childhood dreams have long been gone.

Now seeing the white hair in the mirror, how can Cao Cao not feel sad and full of emotion.

"You don't see the sad white hair of the high hall mirror, and the morning is like green silk turning into snow at dusk." Cao Cao muttered: "Fengxian, are you also lamenting the ruthlessness of the years!" Success or failure turns empty, the green mountains are still there, and the sunset is red several times. this life, where should I go! ”
