"It's moving forward...... Plugging the ...... in front of you It's going back, and it's going to block the back with it? I remember, you said that if you adjust the slide valve, this thing will keep moving? "Qi Zu actually doesn't understand the principle of the steam engine at all, even if Hong Tao has talked to him many times, and even the drawings have been drawn, he just faithfully restores the real thing according to the drawings, and the principle still seems to be understood, but he is blindly superstitious that what Hong Tao said must be right.

"Light energy is useless, the key is how to solve its danger. If you put this thing on a ship, if something goes wrong, it can burn the workers who operate it, or blow up the ship. Even if it doesn't blow up, if it's okay and it stops, then it's better to use a sail. Take your time, don't worry, remember one important point, copper cannons, iron cannons, steam engines are not the most important, the most important thing here is people, people who are willing to ponder these things, specifically you and your good guys. The things in the world can't be studied in a lifetime, as long as we write down the things that we have studied and understood in this generation, and then pass on the craftsmanship to the next generation, sooner or later they will be studied, do you say? Hong Tao and Qi Zu were playing with this strange-looking machine in the courtyard, and after a long time, many craftsmen stopped and watched. Hong Tao is a legend in the eyes of Jinhewan craftsmen, he is very rare to do it himself, generally he is playing tricks to let others do it, do it right, everyone says that he teaches well, if it is not right, that is, the person who does the work is too stupid, do not understand what Hong Tao means. The more he said that he had no real skills, the more the craftsmen thought that he was hiding and unwilling to teach others. Later, he simply didn't explain. Just move your mouth and don't use your hands!

"Hey, hey, hey...... You're talking about the law. I heard that you are about to become the emperor, that is the immortal in the sky, we can also get a little immortal energy when we work with the immortals, hehehe...... "The craftsmen are all people who use their hands as mouths, and let them say a whole word that compliments people, as if it is so difficult to let Hong Tao pick up tools to make a set of furniture."

"Well, I'd better not stay here, I'll have to kneel and knock three times if I can't keep it in place for a while. Who's talking so fast! Uncle Qi, remember what I said, if you want to connect to the boiler, you must notify me, and I have to be present, otherwise I will let all the participants go home to retire, this is the rule, no one is an exception. You're busy, don't be in a hurry with this thing, just play it slowly as a thing, don't pay too much attention to it. "Hong Tao is afraid that the people of Jinhewan will really regard themselves as emperors. In that case, he won't be able to hear the truth, and who would dare to chat and play with the emperor if he has nothing to do. This is also the reason why he has not announced that Jinhewan will be restructured. It's a pity that Jinhewan is such a big place, and it can't be hidden, and now the person who doesn't know that he wants to be the emperor is probably a sailor who goes to sea.

As for this steam engine, Hong Tao didn't have much hope at all, it was not easy to get the model right, and it was a pure dream to use it in actual production! For example, whether the strength of the material is enough, how to process and assemble, seal, and transmit are all big problems, which one wants to solve will involve the entire industrial system, and even catch up with the chemical industry and smelting industries, which can really not be solved by one's own half-bottle head. Just a bearing can make yourself helpless, what kind of steam engine can you play without a bearing, you can't still carve it out of hardwood, that's not a child's house.

Instead of throwing so much energy into this unreliable thing, it is better to think about how to strengthen the shortcomings that need to be strengthened the most, such as the problem of management talents, the question of how to transform collective enterprises into state-owned enterprises, and how to establish a perfect commodity system. Whether there is a steam engine or not, Jinhewan is hundreds of years or more ahead of other countries, but without these systems, the Jinhe Empire cannot function normally, and it can still be distinguished which is light and which is heavy.

It's a pity that the wheels of Jinhewan's forward development have been pushed and turned by him, and even have inertia, and Qi Zu is just one of them. Two days after returning home after watching the steam engine, Hong Tao was pulled away from home by Wen Xiaoqi, and he had to be asked to inspect the shipyard. The shipyard is the number one key enterprise in Jinhe Bay, just take a look, but what Hong Tao didn't expect was that what was waiting for him was not the plan to build a new warship, but a steel-boned and wood-shelled boat jointly built by Wen Laoer, Wen Laoda and Wen Xiaoqiyesan.

The iron-wirled wood-hulled ship is to replace all the keels and ribs inside the wooden sailing ship with a steel frame structure, and the outside is still made of wood boards for the hull, and the steel frame and the wooden board are riveted with rivets. The purpose of this was to build ships quickly, and when steel manufacturing entered the stage of large industry, forging steel bars would certainly be much faster than cutting wood. And with the steel skeleton, the hull can be built larger, and hundreds of meters are no problem.

The advent of the technology of building ships from a mixture of steel and wood also provided a suitable platform for steam engines to board ships, and steel frame structures were more suitable for maintaining structural strength during vibrations than bonded and mortise and tenon wood. Moreover, with the steel frame structure, large-caliber naval guns can also be put on the ship, which promotes the development of rear-loading cannons. This is a cutting-edge transition technology from sail warships to steam-powered and steel warships, and the problem is that it is not timely for it to appear in Jinhe Bay at this time, too early!

This Nima is directly to the level of shipbuilding in the nineteenth century, although it is only a small ship with a displacement of less than ten tons, although the technology of forging steel bars in Jinhewan is at most such a large ship, but this technology was indeed realized in the thirteenth century, and how to make the ship bigger is only a matter of time. But there is a problem when this kind of ship is bigger, that is, power, the sail alone will definitely not reach the speed of a pure wooden ship, after all, steel is heavier than wood, so if you want to speed up, you have to use a steam engine. Could it be that Wen Lao Er and Qi Zu have discussed in private, one is engaged in the iron and wooden hull hull, and the other has begun to prepare the steam engine, this is to enter the industrial age ****** one step!

Is it good that technology is moving fast? Hong Tao thinks not all. Everything has to be taken step by step, you can walk fast, you can even run, but you can't jump. Since you want to play with technology, you must conform to the laws of science, and if you want to enter the industrial age, you must keep up with it as a whole. Now Jinhewan does not have such conditions, if they are allowed to toss like this, don't wait for the Mongol Empire to attack, Jinhewan itself will have to play itself to death. It is too wasteful to spend all limited resources on a bunch of things that cannot be converted into productivity in a short period of time.

But this word can't come out of Hong Tao's mouth, that will discourage people's enthusiasm, in principle, Hong Tao still encourages innovation, but everything must be done to a degree, in line with the current social state and ability. How can pioneers like Qi Zu and Wen Lao Er stop or slow down and reuse their energy where they need it most? That's where wisdom comes in.

"Dad, when I make a budget in the future, without the approval of the official document signed by me, I am not allowed to give a penny to the Wen family and Uncle Qi for more than one batch!" Since he can't be this bad guy, someone has to come forward, and this time Hong Tao directly deducted the black pot on his father-in-law's head. Let the old man Bofu use the excuse of the budget to cut off Qi Zu and Wen's profligacy, this method will not hinder his wise image at all, and it can also drag them down from the root. Now it's not a big collective system, it's about to enter the state of the state, every enterprise must have a budget, and if you don't have money, you can still pay for materials and hire people to study!

"Why did the two of them mess with you again?" It was the first time that Bo Fu heard Hong Tao say that he wanted to get a research fund, and he was a little confused for a while, and the first thought was that Wen Lao Er and Qi Zu had offended Hong Tao, and they were very offended, otherwise they would not have been treated like this.

"It's a personal grudge and I'm grateful for their contributions over the years, but we have limited money and they've gone too far and have to take it. Not only them, but also other companies, as long as it is a new technology or new product project, it must have my consent. Hong Tao doesn't care about what the old man Bo Fu thinks, the old man makes sea fish very delicious, he is here today under the guise of talking about business, Bo Zhu is working overtime today, Senia and Bai Xiang's cooking skills are too poor, so they can only find the old man to eat a bite.

"Cheng, if you say you can't give it, then don't give it. Let me ask you something, you are going to go to Carl's house in the second half of the year? And to bring a hundred craftsmen and a lot of supplies to Cape Town? That place is too far away, I heard Bozhu say that it will take months to run on your big ship, is Martini reliable? If he gets double-minded, will you be in danger? Now that you are the emperor, you shouldn't run around, if you have something to do with those captains, you can do it at home, you see which emperor has nothing to do and ran out for a year and a half, what should you do at home? "The old man Bofu has no opinion on the scientific research budget of the enterprise, he won't let him spend money, and he doesn't have to teach him to save money, a spirit. But he has some opinions on the issue of Hong Tao always sailing with the fleet in person, it turns out that Hong Tao is running around and he can't say anything, but now that his son-in-law is the emperor, he has to take care of it.

"Dad, what you said is not right, what does our Tan family rely on? Ocean! Rong Weng Weng is a native of the territorial sea, and so am I, although we don't have to risk life and death to catch the sea anymore, but this spirit cannot be lost. If I just became the emperor and didn't dare to shrink at home and go to sea, the juniors would be inferior to the next, which is called a weasel rat, a litter is not as good as a litter. If you want Golden River Bay to be destroyed from my generation, you will stop me from going to sea. He didn't have to stop stuffing fish meat into his mouth to deal with the old man Hong Tao, in fact, he was thinking about other problems in his head, and these nonsense slipped out subconsciously.
