Chapter 267: Ironclad Ship
Wang Du said: "Before we talk about the ship, you must understand one situation, that is, our current steel plant is very different from the past!" Not only is the quality excellent, but the output is huge, so the price of this steel will naturally not be expensive! We can afford to build ships! ”
All three of them were stunned.
Wang Dudao: "For example, the steel knife you said, we only provided one or two stripes of silver to the imperial court, that's the reason!" ”
The three of them were all shocked, such a treasure knife only needed one or two lines of silver! Isn't that how much it costs?
Wang Du said: "If you can afford it, it is also a very silver-consuming thing!" The shipyard alone has invested a million taels of money! However, some results have finally been achieved, the ironclad ship has been built, and it is being debugged overtime, and it will be launched in a few days! Otherwise, I'm sorry for Young Master Huang's money! This shipyard is also the director of the Song factory, I have been there many times, yes, I know more! ”
"This ironclad ship is a drawing provided by Young Master Huang, so there is no worry about sinking, and this ironclad ship is not rowed by people, but a large steam engine is installed, as long as coal is added, it can start by itself day and night! It's fast, and it doesn't matter if it's going well or not! ”
The three of them looked at each other, like listening to a book from heaven!
You don't need manpower, you can run on your own by burning coal, which ...... It's a fantasy!
The three even suspected that Wang was talking about wine.
Wang Du also knew that the three of them had some difficulty accepting Wang Du
"When you see the steam engine tomorrow, you'll know I'm not bragging!"
The three nodded.
Li Guo asked, "Uncle Wang, why did Young Master Huang spend a million taels to build this iron ship?" ”
Wang Du smiled: "This is naturally of great use!" This is a great thing for the benefit of the country and the people! Why do we ordinary people always have a bad life? It's not the land that makes trouble!
For example, in our Shaanxi Mansion, the land is barren, the land is scarce and there is a shortage of water, but with this iron boat, we can get out of Shaanxi, overseas fertile land, you can't plant enough, why bother to live in that poor land! ”
Wang Du smiled, and said: "Your Majesty and Young Master Huang have a far-sighted vision, and they have worked hard for the common people in the world, and they do not hesitate to spend a lot of money, just to let more ordinary people live a good life, this steam iron ship embodies the expectations of the Son of Heaven and virtuous ministers!" We should all be grateful! ”
When the three of them heard this, their hearts were shaken, and their faces became solemn!
Today's conversation, although there are not many, but every sentence touches the hearts of the three people!
At the same time, he had a sense of admiration for His Majesty, Niangniang, and Huang Xiao, who had never met before!
In the face of such a holy son of heaven and such a virtuous minister, how could they not be willing to assist with all their might!
Wang Du said: "In fact, compared to the iron ship, there is another thing, and that is the immortal means!" It's just limited to the confidentiality regulations, I can't say much to you, if you are lucky enough to see it, you can know what kind of magical powers Young Master Huang has! Let me tell you this, though the world is big! But no one is the enemy of my Rhubarb Village! ”
The three of them were very curious and asked again and again.
Wang Du said: "It's not that I don't say it, but I can't say it." ”
Zhang Xianzhong suddenly said: "Brother Wang, do you think the three of us have special talents?" ”
Wang Du was stunned for a moment, looked at it, and said: "I'm a straight person, you don't think it's strange to speak, I didn't see it!" ”
All three laughed.
Zhang Xianzhong said: "Shine! We don't know the three major words, and we don't mention martial arts, but Niangniang and Hou Ye let us enter Beijing by name, you say, we will be unreliable? ”
Wang Du was startled and lost his voice: "Oh, I don't know about this yet!" You were actually summoned by Niangniang and Young Master Huang! The factory just said that it was a fellow villager in Shaanxi! And what's going on? ”
Zhang Xianzhong said: "Naturally, I don't dare to deceive my eldest brother, you can ask your sister-in-law about this!" ”
At this moment, Wang's sister-in-law walked out with a wooden plate.
"Stop drinking, eat something!"
The four thanked them and accepted.
Sister-in-law Wang asked: "Zhang Xianzhong, what did you say to me?" ”
Wang Du said: "Zhang Xianzhong said that they were specially summoned to Beijing by His Majesty and the young master. ”
Sister-in-law Wang nodded and said, "Yes, it was specially summoned to the Jingmian Saint, what's wrong?" ”
Wang Du sighed: "This must be Young Master Huang's magical powers, thinking that the three of them are not mortals, it is disrespectful!" ”
Sister-in-law Wang said: "It's not, you don't know in the factory, today our Dahuangzhuang is a talent from all over the Ming Dynasty has come several times, all of them are called by the mother and the young master." ”
Zhang Xianzhong's hearts moved.
Li Hongji asked: "Does sister-in-law know who they are?" ”
Sister-in-law Wang said: "When I was also handing over the task, I listened to it, these people are forty or fifty years old, some are more than ten years old, and the youngest is only fourteen years old!" It is said that they are all Jinshi masters or scholars, and there is also a prefect! ”
Wang Dudao: "You can't be presumptuous, our fellow villagers in Shaanxi can't be weaker than others!" I'm born to be useful! ”
Zhang Xianzhong's spirits perked up, and then he smiled: "Brother Wang's export is a chapter, and his knowledge must be excellent!" ”
Wang Du smiled modestly, and Wang's sister-in-law said, "What a thing! If it weren't for the old lady forcing him to learn every day, he wouldn't be the leader of the group! ”
The three of them remembered the rules of the army, and they knew in their hearts that the promotion of the factory must be no different from that in the army, and their knowledge should also be assessed.
Li said: "Uncle Wang, tell us about it, what kind of immortal means?" ”
Wang Du pondered for a while and said: "Okay, I'll just talk about it briefly, you can be named by the Hou Ye, and you are not an outsider, and you will definitely have a chance to see it in the future, and I am not a violation of discipline, but you are not allowed to spread it, I will report it again, it should be fine." ”
As he spoke, he glanced at his wife.
Sister-in-law Wang got up and put away the dishes and chopsticks and went back to the room.
Seeing this, the three of them were immediately shocked by the secrecy measures of Da Huangzhuang!
Even loving couples can't know, and after saying it, they have to report it.
Wang Du explained: "Jiannu once sent people into Dahuangzhuang to spy on secrets, which was cracked a few days ago, and my Dahuangzhuang is where the important weapons of the research country are, and the secrecy measures have also been strengthened a lot!"
If this knowledge is transmitted to Jiannu or Fanbang, it will definitely cause heavy casualties to my Ming soldiers in the future, although a few people have just entered the rhubarb village, but also have to follow, in front of outsiders, do not disclose the secrets of the rhubarb village at will. ”
The three nodded in agreement.
Wang Dudao: "Two days ago, I participated in the assembly of a machine!" It's a machine that can fly with people, and it's called an airplane! ”
Zhang Xianzhong, Li Hongji, Li Guo, all three of them stood up in shock.
"You can fly! Manned flight? How is this possible!! Zhang Xianzhong exclaimed.
Wang Du smiled, "This is developed by Young Master Huang, then there is nothing impossible!" His old man is a sage determined by Taizu, and he is an immortal in the world! There must be great powers! ”
