408. Science and Technology Confidentiality [2/2]
When Zheng Zhifeng fled back to the Governor's Palace, Zheng Zhilong, Zheng Zhihu, and Zheng Zhibao were waiting in the lobby, of course they knew that the little sister went to King Jiashan to ask for unspoken rules, although the three brothers were a little reluctant to make such a sacrifice, but under the pressure of survival, this was also a helpless thing.
So the three of them were a little depressed, and comforted each other: "It's okay, sleep with you once and it won't fall off, little sister comes back, let's not ask about it, pretend it didn't happen." ”
"Well, let's see how many promotion certificates the little sister can get back, let's use these cards on the most confidant subordinates......"
"Have you chosen the right one?"
"If you choose well, you will choose the most experienced artillerymen! Loyalty is absolutely no problem. ”
"Well, then wait!"
The three brothers waited eagerly, they knew that the unspoken rules would take a long time!
The three of them are men, and they understand very well that men are creatures, and when a man gets a new woman, he often doesn't end it with one shot, but will change the trick and come several times, which takes a long time. What, the women of Fengchen understand this psychology of men very well, and launched it for this reason, so that men have enough time to come a few more times. Like the kind of business that costs 100 yuan at a time, and walks away after ten minutes, men who are a little more literary don't like it.
The three brothers decided to wait patiently, but they didn't have to wait long when they saw Zheng Zhifeng crying and running into the house, the coat on it was gone, and only a tight sea bass skin water was left, and there was still a lot of sea sand on it, while walking. The sand slid down on one side.
"Wow, third sister, so fast? King Jiashan is really useless. Zheng Zhihu, who had no brains, took the lead.
Zheng Zhilong, who has a higher level, paid attention to a different place, and he frowned and said, "Little sister." How did you come back from a swim in the ocean?"
"What's going on?" Zheng Zhibao also asked.
"Wow...... Woo......" Zheng Zhifeng was frightened, and the aftermath was not dispersed, crying: "King Jiashan." It's a big pervert...... Big pervert, ......"
"What's going on? Zheng Zhilong said with a calm face.
He ...... He doesn't want unspoken rules, it's a slave...... Oh my God, the female artillerymen on his ship were all his slaves...... There are so many slaves, it's too perverted......" Zheng Zhifeng cried: "I don't want to be a slave, so I fled back and didn't get a promotion certificate...... Woo...... Eldest brother...... I'm so useless......"
The three men of the Zheng family sweated together, in fact, there were few rich men in ancient times who did not raise slaves. Think about it, in the population market, twenty taels of silver can buy a beautiful maid, this maid is your person in life, and death is also your ghost, you can get it as much as you want, she must be obedient and can't resist. Otherwise, it would not be illegal to beat her to death. Under such circumstances, how can a man with money in his pocket not keep slaves? Is it true that all men are saints and gentlemen?
The three brothers of the Zheng family actually all raised slaves, and they raised a lot, each family had more than a dozen. However, there are thousands of them like King Jiashan. All of them are professional, which is really a bit weird.
"Isn't it?King Jiashan is so powerful?" Zheng Zhihu said in a cold sweat: "So many slaves, can he have fun?"
"This ...... It's going to be short-lived, and it's certain that you'll die. Zheng Zhibao also sweated.
Even the most stable Zheng Zhilong sweated: "This ...... What a strong kidney. ”
The three brothers sighed for a while, and finally, Zheng Zhilong comforted Zheng Zhifeng and said: "Little sister, since he wants a slave, it is really not suitable for you to go, the unspoken rules are barely acceptable, but this is unacceptable, our sister of the Zheng family will never be able to do that kind of thing for others, it seems that the proof of promotion is still to find another way." ”
"Woo......" Zheng Zhifeng was still shocked. ...,
"Now it's clear!" Zheng Zhibao said: "Big brother, since King Jiashan wants slaves, let's send some well-trained women to have a good relationship, maybe he will be willing to give us one or two third-order artillery certificates!"
Zheng Zhilong shook his head: "This is difficult...... Think about it, in the population market, twenty taels of silver for a woman, if you buy it and then train it well, it won't be able to rise a few taels of silver, and how much can a slave be worth? But the third-order artillery certificate is worth a lot of money, how many women do you have to send to be eligible to exchange for a certificate? Will the king of Jiashan do this kind of loss-making business?"
Zheng Zhibao thought about it, and it was true: "Then what should I do? Big brother, Westerners are getting more and more powerful, we can't sit still, we have to find a way." ”
Zheng Zhilong thought about it seriously, and finally sighed: "I can't think of a way, forget it, let's take one step at a time......
Dragon Boat!
After Zheng Zhifeng escaped, Yi Yun sat in the lobby and was flustered, he really couldn't understand what was going on with Zheng Zhifeng, he was shocked, he looked like a comedian.
Since he couldn't figure out the situation, the curtain of the side house was opened, and Chen Yuanyuan walked in with a smile.
"Yo, round girl, why are you smiling so much?" asked Iyun.
Chen Yuanyuan said with a smile: "I hid behind the curtain to watch Xiang Gong clean up Zheng Zhifeng, but I didn't expect Xiang Gong to be a righteous gentleman, and he didn't eat anything that was sent to the door, so he was driven out." ”
"Of course, you are a very good person. Yi Yun said solemnly: "It's just a little unclear what Zheng Zhifeng is here for." ”
"Isn't this simple?" Chen Yuanyuan said with a smile: "It must be that Fengyun Shibazhi has felt the pressure of Westerners and wants to get some benefits from you to improve his own strength." ”
A word woke up the dreamer, and Yi Yun suddenly realized.
"Xianggong, I know you want to keep the technology of the new cannon a secret, but ...... I think it's still necessary to give Zheng Zhilong some of this kind of cannon. Chen Yuanyuan said seriously.
"Oh, what do you think about the round girl?" asked Yi Yun with a smile.
"There is no possibility of keeping any advanced weapon secret forever. Chen Yuanyuan said very seriously: "When Taizu founded the country, he invented a counterweight trebuchet, which was hundreds of years ahead of the technology at that time, but ...... A year after the research of this trebuchet, people all over the world will build it, and the reason is simple: the craftsmen who make this trebuchet will pass on its practice. Trebuchets captured by the enemy on the battlefield will also be dragged back to dismantle, study, and imitate. At the beginning, our Da Meng country did not know how to make Fu Lang cannons, but the Westerners brought the Fu Lang machine guns on the ship and sailed over, and we captured them, and the craftsmen of the Da Meng country quickly mastered the art of making cannons. In the same way, the Fuso people also took away the technology of making firecrackers from the Westerners. ”
Chen Yuanyuan paused for a moment and said: "In our battle with the Westerners, the method of cannon construction will sooner or later be mastered by the Westerners, and they will begin to imitate it...... When the time comes, if the prince and your family build cannons and deal with all the Westerners, they will be powerless. We should take advantage of the fact that the Westerners don't know this kind of technology, pass on the new weapons to our allies, and the two families work together to catch the Westerners off guard. After that, even if the Westerners mastered the method of making this cannon, they started later than us, and they were inferior to us in the experience of using this cannon. ”
When Chen Yuanyuan's words came out, Yi Yun suddenly felt reasonable. He is a person from later generations, and he understands the truth that science and technology are difficult to keep secret for a lifetime, and you must know that all mankind is actually a closely related whole, and any country that has researched new science and technology has obtained a temporary lead, and it is impossible to lead for a lifetime, because other countries can always use various methods to get this new technology, and then everyone has reached the same starting point. ...,
For example, radios, tanks, submarines, airplanes, aircraft carriers...... These major military leaps in history, several major powers have followed one after another, and they have been successfully studied in less than a few years.
Yiyun brings new technology to this world through cheating, but it is impossible for new technology to be kept secret for a long time, and it will not take a few years, or even months, as long as a cannon falls into the hands of the enemy, it will be imitated. At that time, the scientific and technological advantage will be gone, and the two countries will be at war, and the final competition will still be national strength.
For example, in the Pacific naval battle during World War II, Fuso used its scientific and technological advantages to use the zero fighter to smile at the sky, and achieved an advantage for a while, but because the national strength was not as good as the United States, it was never able to obtain the decisive victory.
If Yiyun wants to keep science and technology secret and not share it with his own people, then he can only use the resources of Shanghai and Jiashan to build new weapons, which is like a new version of Fusang, without allies, fighting alone, even if you are a hundred years ahead of science and technology? Soon the new technology is leaked, and the shortcomings of the country are exposed, and the enemy can slap you to death. But if the entire Da Meng country will build a new cannon, even if the technology is leaked, the Dutch will immediately learn to build it, and follow it, can the national strength of your little Netherlands be compared with my big Meng country?
Yi Yun pondered for a long time, and finally figured it out, he stood up and said seriously: "Okay, Yuanyuan girl, you are right, the new weapon secrecy work, you still have to do it, but you only need to do it to the enemy, there is no need to do it to your own people, not to mention that the blacksmith and pig iron used to make these cannons, many of them were provided to me by Zheng Zhilong, I can't be too selfish as a person, you go and pass on an order, transfer some newly made cannons, and I will personally give them to Zheng Zhilong." ”
Chen Yuanyuan grinned and said: "My family is good, if I am a fool of the Donglin Party, I will definitely not understand what I say." ”
"But I'm going to keep a hand too. Yi Yun smiled and said: "The money that should be cheated still has to be cheated, I can't let Zheng Zhilong get new technology for nothing, you have to give me some benefits, knowledge is money! I have to get him some fake promotion certificates, hehehe." ”
"Someone, prepare some gold leaf paper, and a pen! Quick!" exclaimed Iyun. (To be continued)
