Yang Rui's insights from World War II novels and movies don't actually apply to World War I, and many of his opinions are wrong. It is reasonable to save zài, and if the technology has not developed to a certain level, no matter how good the idea is, it is illusory.

Zhong Guanguan didn't want to talk about aircraft engines when discussing the important tasks of the founding of the country, but when he saw Yang Rui asking, he had to say in detail: "It's still not good." The fixed cylinder of the star engine does not dissipate heat well, although it is a single row of nine cylinders, but the air cooling can only cool the front part of the cylinder, and the part behind the cylinder is difficult to cool because it cannot blow the wind. Gasoline is not as good as diesel, the ignition point is very low, and once the second half of the cylinder turns red due to the high temperature, then the whole engine will not work. On the contrary, it is the kind of star engine with cylinder rotation invented by the French, because the cylinder rotates so the heat is fully dissipated, so it has been put into practice, but because the cylinder mass is too large, the rotation wear is strict, and the life of this engine is too short. ”

It's that damn heat dissipation problem again. Yang Rui was annoyed, but now is indeed not the time to talk about the technical details, so he locked his eyebrows and stopped asking, there are still several years before the First World War, and this pit dad's star engine will not be studied after the founding of the country.

"Actually, how many medicines are there? There are four items on your text. Xu Huafeng asked, he just heard that there were two.

"It's four, it was originally two sulfonamides, but later a Yunnan Baiyao factory was added, and there was an ordinary sanitary substrate factory, so there are four items." Yang Rui explained that he read it according to the book, and his memory was relatively scattered, so it sounded incorrect.

Sulfonamide technology is mature, Yunnan Baiyao and sanitary substrate. Xu Huafeng didn't understand, so he had to ask further: "The two iron factories ......" Xu Huafeng paused, "Don't talk about it here in Wutai Mountain." Although the ore grade is only 45 percent, we can still beneficiate the ore, and if it doesn't work, we will sinter it, but if we really want to open a mine on the other side of Benxi, you are not afraid of the red eyes of the Japanese? It's a special steel that's not made in the whole of Asia. ”

"There's no way around it." Yang Rui shook his head, "Who made the iron medium over there so good?" If you change places, such as Hanyang or Maanshan, it is impossible to smelt such steel in a short period of time. ”

Xu Huafeng understands the difficulties of choosing Benxi. The ore there is low sulfur and low phosphorus, and the coking coal is also low sulfur and low phosphorus, which is a perfect match. Anyway, everything is indispensable.

"I'm afraid that as soon as the steel plant starts. The Japanese were thinking about how to get through. Zhong Guanguan also said that he had stayed in Tonghua and fully understood the ambitions of the Japanese, "Isn't it possible to process the ore movement Tonghua Iron Works?" The two places are actually not far apart. ”

"The location of the Benxi Iron and Steel Plant is in the middle of the South Manchurian Railway and the Anbong Railway, and the construction of the railway will cross the Anbong Line, and the Japanese will definitely not agree, and the Iron and Steel Plant in Benxi is the same as in Tonghua, it is nothing more than one in their mouths and one in their mouths. Just take a few extra steps. If there was a war in which the Japanese attacked Tonghua, the Americans might not dare to send troops. Yang Rui said.

"That bow and long ridge are really coincidental. Just fifteen kilometers away from the annex of the two railways. If I were Japanese, I would be anxious to see it. If it weren't for the Prince River, that place would have been sealed off by them. Zhang Taiyan, a literati who didn't understand industry, also came to join in the fun, "Actually, if you want to build the iron factory here, it will be a tooth extraction from the tiger's mouth." ”

"Actually, let's transport the local coking coal out, just transport it to Ma'anshan, and stock up on that kind of low-sulfur coal in advance. Or if there is a lot of coal in Shanxi, can't you find the same coking coal? As for iron ore, it's better to use Huoqiu's, isn't this also low-sulfur and low-phosphorus iron ore? If the coking coal is not enough, then use charcoal to make it. Xu Huafeng thought about this extremely difficult thing, and in the end he could only think of this compromise.

"Huoqiu can expand the production of charcoal pig iron, but Benxi Lake can't pull it down." Yang Rui was also reflecting on the construction of Benxi Lake Iron and Steel Plant, and finally said: "Let's transport all kinds of equipment back first, all kinds of civil works can be completed first, and we will see if it is installed or not." ”

Seeing that Yang Rui basically agreed with his own construction, Xu Huafeng skipped over Benxi Lake and looked at the content behind. There are six non-ferrous metal mines, except for an electrolytic aluminum plant, a cemented carbide plant, and a smelter; In addition to the dye factory and calcium carbide factory, other chemical plants, such as acid plants, alkali plants, and synthetic ammonia plants, are all existing technologies; Nine items of machinery, lathes, motors, boilers, bearings, tools, instruments are the key difficulties, others such as textile machinery, mining machinery, bicycles are not difficult, basically imitation; In addition to a paper mill, the light industry is a textile factory; Medicine is not difficult because the technology is readily available; The six items of the military industry, that is, the aircraft factory and the engine factory, are more difficult, and the two arsenals of radio and electronic tubes are also ready-made technology and personnel; There are two ships, Wuchang and Ma'anshan are newly built, and the Jiangnan Bureau is expanded, which is not difficult; Finally, there are three railways......

"Which three railways?" Xu Huafeng asked.

"The first is the Zhangpu line, the Yellow River Fenglingdu as the starting point, and then north to Taiyuan Datong until Zhangjiakou, the railway will cross the entire Shanxi, south of the Yellow River, north of Beijing and Zhang, there are 1,000 kilometers; Then there is the Hou Yan line, one is the railway that extends to Xi'an, Xi'an and then Houma, this railway is not long, less than 500 kilometers, but it is the key ...... connecting Shanxi to Xi'an" Yang Rui said. But he hadn't finished yet, but Xu Huafeng interrupted.

"Shanxi to Xi'an, isn't that going to cross the Yellow River?" Xu Hua sealed the road, Jinqiao Yinlu, and the Yellow River Bridge in Jinghan took a lot of money to repair it twice, and now Yang Rui said that the Hou Yan Line is also going to repair the Yellow River Bridge, and he is very worried about the construction problem.

"It is to cross the Yellow River, but the place where the bridge was built is in Longmen, after Longmen, the Yellow River expands, and the flow rate is also gentle, and the difficulty and cost of building a bridge here is the lowest." Yang Rui planned the railway route completely according to the map of later generations, there are few horizontal railways between the Baoxi Line and the Tongpu Line, the Houxi Line is one, and the Shenmu Yuanping to the north is also one, but the Houxi Line is the closest to Yanchang Oilfield, so he chose to build the Houxi Line.

There is a way for the carp to jump over the dragon gate, and the revival will have more dragon gate inns. When everyone heard Yang Rui say about the construction of the Yellow River Longmen Bridge, they were all cordial. Zhang Taiyan interjected: "The dragon gate is good, the dragon gate is good." It is much better to choose this place than to build the Yellow River Bridge by foreigners. ”

When he said this, everyone laughed. Xu Huafeng said: "Is there any mapping of the whole line?" ”

"Hmm." Yang Rui lied, "After the preliminary surveying and mapping, there is no problem with the selection of the route, the key is to do detailed surveying and mapping in the construction aspect." But for now, it is not difficult to build bridges in the gantry. ”

"That's good. Then the third railway is the Wuchang-Guangzhou Yuehan line, right? Xu Huafeng asked.

"It's just possible that the Cantonese-Han line. The two railways of Guangdong-Han and Sichuan-Han had been mortgaged by the Manchu Qing Dynasty to the banking group of the four countries, although only a draft was signed, but in the eyes of foreigners, the draft was the official document. Just like the Shanghai-Hangzhou Railway back then, the draft was taken seriously by the British. If foreigners will give money, then we will recognize the draft that Sheng Xuanhuai talked about; If you drag it and don't give money. Then build a railway from Jiujiang, cross Nanchang and then go south to Hong Kong. Yang Rui said.

"That is, across Jiangxi and then to Hong Kong, this is also a thousand kilometers?" Xu Hua sealed.

"Well, south of the Yangtze River. There is no railway except for the Zhejiang-Jiangxi line. How to save money in the five years since the founding of the People's Republic of China. These three railways still cannot be saved. Yang Rui said: "Such a 2,500 kilometers of railways, calculated at 30,000 taels per kilometer, then it will take 75 million, there are many mountains in the south, I am afraid that 30,000 taels is not enough, it is estimated that the budget of these three railways is about 90 million taels, and the remaining money is coal mines, power plants and other industrial investments." ”

Three railways went to nearly 100 million, and the remaining fifty-six projects. Based on the total amount of 300 million, excluding the funds for hoarding strategic materials. There is also support for private industrial and commercial mining, and the rest of the money is divided equally between each project and only two million taels of investment scale, which seems to be a lot, but Yang Rui wants to build not a small factory this time, but a large factory, especially sulfonamides, synthetic ammonia explosives, aircraft, tractors, steel plants, machine tools, boilers, shipyards and other money-making projects, he wants to build to the largest scale he can bear.

For example, steel, now there are only 500,000 tons of iron and 150,000 tons of steel, adding up to only 700,000 tons, to be raised to the scale of 2 million tons, but it has tripled, and the two iron plants are not millions of taels that can be sent, and if you really want to reach this scale, plus a complete set of supporting factories, at least 10 million taels or more; This is true of steel, and many others are like this, heavy industry is originally a capital-intensive industry, if it were not for the First World War, so much money would have to be lost half.

After Yang Rui finished talking about the railway, the next topic was how to deal with the personnel of the old system. Manchu people don't hurt their lives, but they want to go back to the Northeast with all their bare butts, everyone agrees with this, but there are still some sayings on their lips, but Yang Rui is standing on the moral ground, as long as the Manchu people can prove that the money is completely earned by themselves, the house is bought, and he has a legitimate job, such as Ta Kung Pao's Yingzhi, as long as he returns the flag salary, then what does he like to do.

"Actually, is the money earned by Manchu people as officials, errands, and soldiers in the court considered legal income?" Yu Zixun asked.

"You might as well ask us if we recognize the Manchu dynasty as representing China," Yang Rui said angrily as he looked at him. "Those who are soldiers are not counted, as long as they are officials, which one is not greedy? As long as it is a corrupt official, it should be killed after it is verified. ”

"What about the soldiers?" This is the question Yu Zixun wants to ask, "What will happen to them after they are captured by us?" ”

"If it is a Han Chinese, then it will be released after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the Manchu people will be a different matter." Yang Rui looked at him and said, "Because of territorial, diplomatic and other factors, we have to recognize that the Manchu Qing Dynasty was the legitimate government of China before this year." If we stand on this standpoint, we will only come to an extremely absurd conclusion, that is, it was a legitimate act of the Manchus to exterminate us, and our revolution was an illegal act. In other words, the captured new army was not guilty, but for the Manchus, it was difficult to distinguish whether they were soldiers to fight for their national duty or to defend the status of the ruling nation. ”

"Referring to the American Civil War, a soldier is innocent after taking an oath of allegiance." Yu Zixun said that he understood that the reason why he said that the soldiers were innocent was because the fifty divisions after the founding of the People's Republic of China were to incorporate the Manchu New Army, and how could the army be full of people.

"The United States is the United States, and the free national conditions of 'I Daqing' are here." Yang Rui saw that he was talking about the United States again, and he didn't know why he suddenly thought of a famous quote on the Internet in later generations, so he said it with a smile, but others didn't know what he meant, so he had to say: "China has never been a society ruled by law." There are also few people who take the oath seriously, and since ancient times, fighting for the world has been a succession or defeat. Those officers and soldiers of the Manchurians, if they are not restrained after the founding of the country, will definitely be a source of chaos. These people should not go to the northeast like ordinary Manchus, but should go to Xinjiang. Zixun, there is an old saying, called one does not do two endlessly, we have pulled the Manchu people off the throne. It has also made them from princes and nobles and first-class people to poor people with no status to speak of, will they not hate me? If there is no way to get rid of hate. Then it is necessary to eliminate the person who holds a grudge, and there is nothing wrong with me saying that, right? ”

Yang Ruiyan was full of murderous intent, and Zhang Taiyan said: "Zixun, I didn't want to kill them or enslave them. It's just a matter of moving them out of the gate. Think about the fate of Qianming! ”

Zhang Taiyan mentioned Qianming, which not only made everyone speechless. It made Yang Rui feel a little evil fire in his heart, he had thought about setting up a Manchurian Ranger earlier, and let the Manchurians do the thing of killing the Manchurians, so that later generations would be accused of pushing three, six, or five, but such a perfect idea could not be realized.

Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Yang Rui asked: "Then this matter is decided, and it will be the turn of corrupt officials next." Because in the early days of the founding of the country, it was necessary to rely on these people. So it can't be as strict as before, as long as they can hand over the stolen money. In addition, if the stolen money has been invested in industry and commerce. With the stabilization of the economy as the starting point, it is impossible for us to withdraw cash, we can only get back the shares. This is the principle of dealing with corrupt officials, do you have any opinions? ”

"The Manchu Qing Dynasty has no officials and is not greedy, and the focus should not be on the top, but on the bottom." Bell Sightseeing Road. "Especially the tax collectors below are the most hateful. Every time these people come to the summer tax and autumn tax, they increase their income and float income, and most of the overcharged money goes into their own pockets. ”

"That's true." Zhong Guanyi said, and several other people agreed. However, Yang Rui said: "The righteousness will be raised in June, the tax will be collected in October, and some places will be occupied late, so it is estimated that the situation will not be stabilized until August." People below the county order, except for the part where the people are very angry, others still have to be wooed, otherwise this year's tax revenue will not be 100 million. ”

"These people just let them go?" Zhang Taiyan asked.

"Hmm. As long as we cooperate, we will let it go. Yang Rui said. Although the students of the Hosei School continue to go to various counties for internships and collect information from various counties, people who have not handled it really want to rush into the field and cannot play a role. It is very necessary for these people to take them with them. It's not that the people are very angry, and if they actively cooperate, they should finally be allowed to go to the IRS. ”

Yang Rui insisted, everyone thought of this year's taxes, or compromised, after all, the country will be in turmoil without money, and the latter is more important than punishing dirty officials and stabilizing the country.

After talking about corrupt officials, the gentry in the end, the reason why they have to be listed is entirely because of land reform.

"If the peasants want to buy, the gentry must be sacrificed, this is a matter of conspiracy, and it has nothing to do with justice and heavenly justice." Yang Rui set the tone at the beginning. "If the peasants are not bought, the cohesion of the peasant associations will be greatly reduced. However, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, there is no need to be as bloody as when Yanzhou was first established, as long as the Agricultural Bank of China can see the benefits. ”

As soon as Yang Rui talked about the bloody Yanzhou, Yu Zixun sighed in a low voice: "Three hundred and nineteen." ”

Although his voice was soft, Yang Rui still heard it, this was a certain number counted by the Yanzhou base area, of course, it was very inaccurate. He stopped and glanced at Yu Zixun, and saw that his gaze had shifted elsewhere, so he had to endure the words that came to his lips. Revolution - no, in Yang Rui's heart, he already disdains the word revolution, isn't it just rebellion, why bother to be so foreign? In his opinion, there are still too few people who will rebel and die in the revival now, and the total number of people inside and outside is less than 100,000.

It could be seen that Yang Rui was a little annoyed, and Zhong Guanguan, who was closest to Yang Rui, raised his throat and said, "No matter how difficult it is for a cultivator to have his field, it must be realized." Without this, there is no way for the state to change. I have seen the land reform of the Meiji Restoration in Japan, where they rescued the peasants from the daimyo and distributed the land to the peasants, while the daimyo issued national bonds. This approach satisfies everyone, and I think our land reform can also be done in the same way, issuing special land bonds to landlords, and then ......"

Zhong Guanguan is purely to not be cold, but when he talked about the bond method, Yang Rui said: "Xianfeng, China has a total of more than 1.1 billion arable land, while Japan only has 5.4 million steps, one town step is equal to ten anti, one anti is equal to 1.5 mu, that is, the arable land in Japan is only 81 million mu, 221 mu, that is, 1.6 billion taels." More than 30 percent of China's more than 1.1 billion mu is in the hands of landlords, that is to say, they have 400 million mu in their hands, 221 mu is counted, when there are 8 billion mu, 10 taels are counted, there are 4 billion. Five taels counted, there are also two billion. Who are you going to let pay back these two billion? Still not ready to pay it back? ”

Zhong Guanguan saw that Yang Rui was more serious, and said embarrassedly, "Then you say, how to realize that the cultivator has his land?" ”

He surrendered here, and Xu Huafeng said: "Yes, if the land is to be distributed to the people, the debt will naturally be borne by them, whether it is ten taels or five taels, there must be a number to make sense, otherwise people who have no land will make trouble." ”

"It doesn't matter if they make trouble, I'm afraid that the land reform will make people panic in the market, and if the land can be confiscated, can the shops and factories also be confiscated? Once everyone thinks that we are going to confiscate even the shops and factories, then all these people will enter the concession. Wang Jitong also interjected. He was afraid that Yang Rui would forcibly confiscate land and kill people at the same time, just like Yanzhou before. "Actually, if we really want to make more money during the war in Europe, then we must stabilize the hearts of the market. How much money can you make from fifty-six projects? How much money can you make with Tianzihao? The most important thing is to let the country's industrial and commercial people take this opportunity to make money, so that they can... Do what you said before to maximize profits. In fact, many gentry not only had land, but also large and small workshops, and they had nowhere to go when they earned money, so they had to buy land and save money. Once the land is forcibly confiscated, then they must end up hiding in the lend-lease, and they will not be able to earn any money during the war. ”

Seeing so many people talking, Yu Zixun also said, "In fact, if the land is forcibly reclaimed, it will contradict the previous industrial project." The real purpose of building those dozens of projects is to make money, but the forced land acquisition will only make the gentry run out, they run out, we don't have so many people to take over their workshops, and the final result is that fifty-six projects have made money, but the gentry and the common people have not made money, and they are still losing money. ”

Seeing that Yu Zixun said that he had lost money, Yang Rui laughed angrily and asked, "What, do you also settle accounts?" ”

"Actually, I didn't believe that Europe would have a big war before, but now that I look at the two camps, they are clearly distinguished, and I am afraid that this battle is inevitable. In this way, when they fight, it is when we make money. It's hard to say whether you can really earn two billion, but there are still more than one billion. This money is equivalent to the 230 million taels that Japan received during the First Sino-Japanese War, and it can basically change the appearance of the country. Whether it is the money earned by the government or the money earned by the gentry and the common people, it is all Chinese money. Yu Zixun said. He didn't know that Yang Rui was angry.

"Brother Chong'an, do you have anything to say?" Yang Rui asked. All four of them expressed their attitudes, only Xie Jintai and Zhang Taiyan did not speak.

"Everybody's saying that's good." Xie Zhangtai's first sentence did not offend anyone, "People can't plant without land, and the tax is so high." However, many of the overseas Chinese are landlords, and once the land is forcibly repossessed, the overseas Chinese will be offended. These people traveled across the sea to do hard labor, and many of them wanted to become landlords. Some people have never been landlords in their lives, and they have put their lives on the line and died in foreign countries, and some of them are lucky enough to finally buy a few pieces of land at home, and once they want to confiscate it compulsorily, then they will have to work hard. After Xie Jintai finished speaking, he was afraid that Yang Rui would not be able to hear it, and said: "To be honest, I don't approve of land reform, but I know that farmers are also bitter, and it can be done, don't you have the best of both worlds?" ”

After Xie Jintai finished speaking, Yang Rui didn't answer, and asked Zhang Taiyan again, "Uncle Mei, tell me about it." ”

After listening to a circle of objections, Zhang Taiyan was very unhappy, and opened the fan with a bang, but took it back with a bang, and said: "Everyone has a hard time, but the worst and most underfed is the tenants, on one side there is no land, and on the other hand, there is no life, anyway, I am standing on the side of the dying." However, when it comes to making money in the European war, I have no objection, and when it comes to the turmoil in the market, I do not refute it. (To be continued......)
