The backwardness of the productive forces often represents the lack of materials. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info When the emperor of the feudal dynasty rewarded his subordinates, many of them were various goods, such as cloth.

Clothing, food, housing and transportation are inseparable from everyone, and the importance of cloth can be seen in the first place, and like all feudal dynasties, cloth in the Great Qin State is a hard currency, often sometimes better than gold coins.

That's because the yield of cloth is really too low, and who will plant cotton when there is not enough to eat at the source?

So this led to the fact that most of the clothes worn by the common people were sackcloth, while the nobles and wealthy were silk and cotton clothes. Therefore, cloth is hard currency that can only be bought by rich people, and must be bought.

Shang Weiyang's new money-making project is placed on this, and at present, in the absence of a power source, Shang Weiyang has to use a project that he really does not want to start - the steam engine.

The structural principle of the steam engine is very simple, it can be manufactured with the current power of Black Rock City, and the reason why Shang Weiyang does not want to use it is very simple, environmental problems.

Shang Weiyang knew that the development of industry would inevitably bring pollution, which was unavoidable, and all kinds of air pollution and haze in the previous life were shocking.

The most famous incident was the London Poison Smog Incident, an incident in which steam engines flooded and uncontrolled stalls eventually led to the deaths of hundreds of people.

Shang Weiyang didn't want the Tianjing Continent to repeat the mistakes of his previous life, so he tried his best to study spiritual energy from the beginning, and even if there was no breakthrough, he tried to replace it with water power.

Today's situation has forced him to use this kind of inefficient and polluting things.

It was only two months before the beginning of winter, and Shang Weiyang handed over the requirements of the steam engine to the scientific research department to design.

And he just put forward the request and guidance, and it will be known in seven days what kind of steam engine can be designed, and the team that finally adopts it will be rewarded with 50,000 gold coins.

Even if it is not adopted, the design is novel or outstanding, and the reward will be from 1 to 30,000 gold coins.

In fact, Shang Weiyang was able to design a steam engine by himself, and the reason why he let the people from the scientific research department compete was that he had the idea of assessing it.

The second is that these monks can't just design the magic circle, then all the machinery will be designed by Shang Weiyang, not to mention whether he has time, even the technical reserves in his mind are insufficient!

After explaining the task to the scientific research department and getting the people in the machinery manufacturing workshop to fully cooperate, Shang Weiyang began to design the spinning and weaving equipment by himself.

Shang Weiyang used the "Jenny machine" at the beginning of the industrial revolution, which has a simple structure and good efficiency, and most importantly, it can be used in conjunction with a steam engine.

As for the textile machine, it is also a mechanical structure that imitates the industrial revolution. It's not that Shang Weiyang doesn't want to use a more advanced design, but there are only these two in his memory palace.

This is also the reason why he wants to train the scientific research department to design the machinery himself.

When Shang Weiyang was busy, Zhang Zhiping was not idle.

After determining that Shang Weiyang wanted to do the cloth business, he began to buy a large amount of cotton, but with a large number of gold coins in his hand, he found that he had money and nowhere to buy, and after purchasing cotton within a hundred miles of Black Rock City, he could only go to Black Dragon City to buy it and the price was two percent more expensive.

The landlords of Black Dragon City have recently circulated a rumor that the prince of Wei has a lot of money and has nowhere to spend it, how much can he slaughter!

And in the border guard fortress not far from Black Dragon City, the same news also reached Sun Xiao's ears.

"This Shang Weiyang is really damned, I won't be allowed to make any money, cheap old hats, it seems that my brother is right, this guy is always annoying by nature!"

"The general is angry, what is there to worry about that kind of waste that can't be cultivated? This time, he won't ask you to protect his Black Rock City, whether he can survive under the mouth of the demon beast this winter is still a question." It was Sun Xiao's military advisor who spoke, and when he saw that his master was angry, he hurriedly comforted him.

Sun Xiao calmed down a trace of anger and scolded: "It's all to blame Wu Minghui's waste, I actually let people kill and kill me, and I killed several spies." ”

Sun Xiao didn't know that due to the establishment of the ID card and the police system, his spy was monitored the moment he entered the city gate.

The news he got now was also found outside the city, so he still doesn't know what happened in Black Rock City, only that Shang Weiyang is desperately throwing money and building a lot of construction!

"General, I think that Shang Weiyang is a stupid and rich lord, who wants to build a city wall to resist demon beasts, and the city wall is so easy to repair? He is now buying a large amount of grain, and cotton seems to want to survive this winter to do cloth business, as far as the villain knows, the weaving process is not as slow as a turtle, but it is also quite slow, and it is difficult to weave a piece of cloth a day and a half.

Since he wants to do a cloth business, why don't we let him buy a large amount of cotton, and then all his gold coins will be turned into cotton, and what will he use to run a city? Even if he survives this winter, it will collapse naturally at the beginning of spring!"

Sun Xiao's eyes lit up after hearing this, "Clever plan, wonderful plan, haha, it's not a soldier to make him bankrupt, when the time comes, the phoenix that loses its hair is not as good as a chicken, I don't have to worry about the gold coins without a brave man!"

Pass the order down, let those old hats sell as much cotton as they want, and sell all the goods purchased from other counties to Shang Weiyang, and those who don't follow will wait to feed the demon beasts this winter. ”

Zhang Zhiping didn't expect that those landowners seemed to be stupid overnight, selling them a large amount of cotton and each one at a lower price than the other, even if they didn't have the goods in hand, they bought it from other counties and sold it to themselves at a low price.

In this regard, Zhang Zhiping of course accepted all the orders, and the raw materials suddenly came to surprise, and the teams of the scientific research department also built the first machines of each steam engine.

The first place went to Team Five, who built a steam engine that even exceeded Shang Weiyang's expectations.

The first is the tightness, after the trial, there is no problem at all, I only know that it is specially designed to ban the blessing of the circle, and all the mechanical link parts have been reinforced with the circle, the most commendable thing is that there is a lot of friction inside the piston, and a special circle is also designed, and there are already some shadows of psionic circuits, so that the cylinder of the internal combustion engine can also use this circle to reduce friction in the future.

In this regard, Shang Weiyang rewarded an additional 50,000 gold coins, which made everyone in Group 5 overjoyed.

Technology is often accumulated little by little, if there is no piston array today, then when the internal combustion engine is developed, there will be one more problem, with today's accumulation, the next step of creation can be more calm, adding 50,000 gold coins in Shang Weiyang's view is very worthwhile.

The first steam engine of this steam engine was also determined by Shang Weiyang to be a mass production model, and the steam engines of other groups also reached the level of use, and they were also rewarded with gold coins ranging from one to thirty thousand.

After backing up the design drawings of the prototype and the layout of the magic circle, the merchant Weiyang handed it over to the machine manufacturing workshop for production along with the drawings of the "Jenny machine" and the loom.

The technical problems and the problems of raw materials have been solved, and the next thing to solve is the problem of people, and women in the feudal dynasty have no status.
