Pei Binh Province.

Xianghe County.

Arsenal area.

"This is a new type of steam engine grinding hammer."

A businessman with several technicians, with the support of the Joint Office of the Military Industry, opened a new forging factory, and enthusiastically introduced it to the staff of the Joint Office of the Military Industry.

Unconsciously.

The Joint Office of the Military Industry is really at the forefront.

"At last month's business conference, it was emphasized that high-tech factories will be vigorously supported in the future."

The manager of the Joint Office of the Military Industry said with a smile, "Our Joint Office of the Military Industry is in the forefront. ”

Hearing the words of the Joint Office of the Military Industry, the businessman smiled.

Businessmen like them, military enterprises that have grown up with the support of the Joint Office of the Military Industry, already know that they will have more support next year.

Ma Wang Xuan stepped on the wooden support.

This military household, who lacks his right leg, is already one of the most powerful people in Beiping, although he has no official status.

Born in the clerical room, the actual promoter of the military-industrial joint office, and the character promoted by the little prince.

Ma Wang Xuan stared at the rapidly rotating friction wheel.

Driven by the steam engine, the rotation of the friction wheel will lead the clamped hammer upward, and when the friction wheel and hammer rod are released, the hammer head at the other end will fall heavily.

The speed of the hammer is very fast, and the power of the hammer is not comparable to that of human power.

Compared with traditional manpower, this technology is 100 times more efficient than traditional manpower, forming an important part of the entire military industry chain.

It has broken through the bottleneck of the military factory in the production of large-scale steel stool blanks, and provided rich materials for the upper and lower production chain enterprises.

Everyone waited for Ma Wangxuan's orders.

Ma Wangxuan nodded.

"When I was in the clerical room, the little prince talked a lot of truths, machines replace manpower, and when the factory encounters production bottlenecks, let the craftsmen brainstorm and invent more machines."

Everyone knows that Ma Wang Xuan is from the clerical room.

People in the market are amazed at Ma Wangxuan's good opportunity, but only the people in the military-industrial joint office know how strong Ma Wangxuan's talent is.

Chen Heng, the person in charge of the Joint Office of the Military Industry, Jin Zhong, the executive director, and Zhu Neng, the deputy director, are not responsible for the day-to-day affairs of the Joint Office of the Military Industry.

The real core is Ma Wang Xuan.

Under the promotion of Ma Wangxuan, there is today's military industrial chain, extending hundreds of factories and mining banks.

Joint Office of the Military Industry.

It has embarked on the road of official supervision and commercial management.

Although there were many military factories belonging to China Heavy Industry Co., Ltd. in the beginning, with the development of the military factory area, more private trading houses were opened.

Therefore, Ma Wang Xuan's prestige is very high.

Also in the military industrial units, as well as the promotion of military businessmen, Ma Wangxuan's influence is very great.

Ma Wangxuan's sudden inspection of military enterprises has attracted the attention of many people.

"The Joint Office of Military Industry has always been promoting in this direction, so that today's high-tech factories are available."

"Last month's general business conference, you businessmen already know, I won't say much, the future military industry joint office, will also support more high-tech factories, you should increase investment in the existing production efficiency, research and development of new technologies, and continue to increase production efficiency."

The military businessmen in the rest of the industry had a smile on their faces.

Early birds catches the worm.

Besides, they're not stupid birds.

In the case that many military factories use high technology, they will undoubtedly be able to obtain loans from various food stamp banks as soon as possible.

With a loan, the production line can be expanded, the production line can be expanded, and with the use of new technology, production can be increased.

"It's just that there is no formal decision yet, and the redress of the 200,000 new army will not be able to maintain the production efficiency of the current military industry and industry bank for a few years."

"If we expand production again, I am afraid that the production capacity of military factories will be overstocked and there will be no orders."

A businessman said worriedly.

His concerns echoed the crowd.

Ma Wangxuan couldn't help but smile, the little prince really knows that people's hearts are endless, and people's greed will never end.

The change of clothes of the 200,000 new army, as well as the entry of the prince and his son into the capital in the future, followed by the reorganization of the new army across the country.

There is no shortage of orders for military businessmen.

But they are not satisfied with the current benefits, relying on the existing high technology, they can get loans from the food stamp bank, and they can open more factories.

Factories can expand production indefinitely.

As long as there is a market.

Tens of thousands of miles of railway construction plans, each mile is a huge amount of money, so that the capital of coal mines, iron mines and other mineral merchants has changed exponentially.

Owners of military factories, they also want to change every year.

As soon as the cannon fired, it was ten thousand taels of gold.

What could be more exciting than war?

"At this stage."

Ma Wangxuan restrained his smile and looked at everyone seriously, the atmosphere became thicker, and people looked at Ma Wangxuan quietly.

"Everything is important to the smooth entry of the little prince into Beijing."

Ma Wang Xuan announced.

The crowd was silent for a moment, and then there was a huge sensation.

Finally.

The exact news was learned.

The little prince is about to enter Beijing, so the public opinion that the saint has the heart of Yi Chu is no longer public opinion, but something that is really going to happen.

"In the situation of the little prince's smooth entry into Beijing, countless people are paying attention, and it is also the most fixed red line in Beiping."

"All groups and individuals must obey this general direction."

Ma Wang Xuan said heavily.

After the previous party, Ma Wangxuan was called over by Jin Zhong and seriously criticized the military-industrial joint office for not taking the overall situation into account.

Combined with the current situation, Ma Wangxuan already knew that he had made a mistake.

Don't be afraid to make mistakes.

As long as it can be corrected immediately.

Therefore, Ma Wangxuan inspected the munitions factory area and revealed the rumors and beat the arms dealers.

Instead of being angry and apprehensive, the arms dealers were ecstatic.

The little prince is the founder of industry.

He was a representative of genuine support for the development of industrialization.

Relying on the development of industrialized society, the merchants, whose strength expanded rapidly like a balloon, wanted the little prince to gain greater power than the common people.

They are convinced.

After the little prince gains higher power, their opportunities will also undergo earth-shaking changes, and the entire Ming Dynasty will be their territory in the future.

"The things in Yili are definitely incomparable to the little prince going to the capital." The merchant said firmly.

"For the little prince to go to the capital smoothly, we must obey the overall situation."

……

One by one, the arms dealers reassured.

Not a day.

Great news came from the Shizi Mansion.

The princess gave birth to a son, and the little prince had a queen.

The good news spread all over Beiping, and it was also sent to the capital to report the good news to the saint and the king of Yan, who had stayed in the capital for a year and a half.

At this time.

Zhu Gaochi left Beiping and began to inspect the armies, as well as the Tianjin Navy and the Jinzhou Navy in Tianjin.

"Whew!"

On the parade stand at the pier.

Ships after warships, dressed in uniform cotton uniforms, bound with armed belts, and unarmoured naval soldiers, carrying self-made firearms behind them.

Rows stood on the deck, saluting in the direction of the parade platform.

Four steam warships, sixteen sail ships, and thirty-two escort ships, for a total of fifty-two.

Outside the pier, the entire sea is full.

This is the most powerful force on the sea in the world today, even in the face of the future Yongle Fleet.

After the review, Zhu Gaochi, accompanied by Deng Xing and other naval generals, boarded the Tiger No. 1 steam engine battleship.

It was also the world's first steam-engine warship.

"This is the dry compass, this is the water compass."

on the battleship.

The admiral introduced various advanced components to Zhu Gaochi.

Zhu Gaochi looked at the exquisite parts and knew that this was a necessary item on the sea.

The water compass has a large number of records in history, so it is known that it was developed by the Song Dynasty in combination with the guide technology of the ancestors.

Only the dry compass was invented by some ill-intentioned people in later generations.

Actually, just be careful.

It can be found that there are a large number of articles and self-media dedicated to smearing ancient remarks, and the purpose of attacking Han culture for many years is self-evident.

The water compass was learned by the Arabs in the merchant ships that sailed to Arabia in the Song Dynasty and was introduced to Europe.

The Europeans of this period used the Chinese water compass technology, and the production method was exactly the same.

However, with the demise of the Song Dynasty, many techniques and records gradually disappeared, leading some people to suggest that Europeans later developed the dry compass by their own research.

Fortunately, the physical objects unearthed in later generations prove that as early as the twelfth century, our ancestors had made a dry compass.

It also proves that the dry compass of the Europeans is also a technique passed down in the Song Dynasty.

"It's an odometry."

"This is the tool used by the Astrology Technique."

……

In ancient times, there was a knowledge of longitude and latitude, but it was not described like that.

From the Qin and Han dynasties using the Big Dipper to identify the seven stars, to the Song Dynasty, Han craftsmen have invented a variety of maritime technical tools.

"Observe the North Star with a star-pulling board."

The naval technical attache has already made a demonstration, holding the center of one end of the plank in his left hand, his arm straight, and looking at the sky.

"The top edge of the board is the North Star, and the bottom edge is the horizontal line."

"This allows you to measure the altitude of the North Star horizon in your location."

"Depending on the height, you can use twelve planks and four ivory blocks to replace and adjust them."

The naval officer explained.

Once you have the altitude of the North Star, you can calculate the geographic latitude of the location.

Zhu Gaochi nodded with satisfaction.

The earliest longitude and latitude proposed by the West did not reach the concept of longitude and latitude that later generations were familiar with at the beginning.

It is the West after the development of industry, the productive forces are constantly advancing, and one generation combines the achievements of the previous generation, and finally enters the later generations, with a more scientific latitude and longitude for later generations.

That's why development is the last word.

In fact, in Zhu Gaochi's view, he is not afraid of backwardness, but he is afraid of not developing.

From the time when the Qing Dynasty imprisoned Chinese civilization, it was doomed to the backwardness of the Qing Dynasty.

In the nineteenth century, in the wars against Britain in all countries and regions of the world, including Africa and Southeast Asia, the Qing Dynasty was the most successful existence, and even the aborigines' record against Britain was not as good as that of the West, but also behind the world.

Such a shocking record in the world, until after the Tianping Heavenly Kingdom occurred, swept away the southern Mancheng, so that the Han people were liberated, the squires began to restore traditions, set up social studies, restore the literacy rate, and rely on the revival of Han culture to save China.

Of course, there were many backward ideas in ancient Chinese society, but the West also had them, and they did even more.

While Western thought was progressing and developing, ancient Chinese thought was also progressing.

From the time of the restoration of Tang and Song civilization in the Ming Dynasty, to the Wanli period, there were more radical ideas than in the West.

Not only criticized the emperor, but also pointed at Confucius and Meng, scolded Confucianism and Taoism, and a large number of books representing the thoughts of the small burgher class came out.

If you think that ancient Chinese society cannot develop.

So where did the high civilization of the Tang and Song dynasties come from, could it be that it fell from the sky?

Zhu Gaochi was not afraid that someone would oppose the emperor.

Because he knows very well that this is the development of history, and even in other countries in later generations, there are many emperors, and the British royal family has always existed.

As long as he can lead the Ming Dynasty to become strong and prosperous, the people-oriented concept is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, combined with the oriental culture, he is confident that his ending will be an unprecedented existence.

So in Tianjin.

Zhu Gaochi made his first speech on going to the capital.

Yan Shizi wanted to go south to the capital, which shocked the world, and the situation in the court that eased up suddenly became tense to the extreme.
