Fortunately, Liu Mo appeared in time and relieved Ouyang Shuo. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Prince!" Liu Mo bowed and saluted, his eyes eager.

When Ouyang Shuo saw it, he smiled. He naturally knew why Liu Mo was so eager, the steam engine had already spread all over China, and even a heavy technical nerd like Liu Mo had gotten the news.

However, the relevant technical manuals have not yet been sent to Research Institute No. 7.

"Let's go, let's talk to your headquarters."

Ouyang Shuo dismounted and walked side by side with Liu Mo.

Because of the industrialization of the territory, the No. 7 Research Institute has been continuously expanded in the past six months, and now it has developed into a super-large scientific research institution with a complete organizational structure and more than 1,000 scientific research personnel.

The headquarters building of the institute has also been expanded several times.

Around the headquarters building, five or six large-scale laboratories have been built, including the Materials Research Institute, the Mechanics Laboratory, the Thermal Laboratory, the Mechanical Research Institute and so on.

The people who presided over the laboratory were all the top scientific research experts in reality.

The No. 7 Research Institute has become a veritable scientific and technological center and scientific research brain in the territory, and any one of them is a professor or doctoral supervisor, and there are no less than twenty academicians in reality.

As soon as he walked into the research institute, Liu Mo began to mutter: "Steam engine, steam engine!" ”

Ouyang Shuo was also powerless to complain about such a technical nerd, and directly threw the "Steam Engine Manufacturing Technology Manual" and "Loom Manufacturing Technology Manual" to Liu Mo, "Take a look!" ”

If Liu Mo got the treasure, he flipped through it on the spot, and he didn't care about Ouyang Shuo at all. Fortunately, his helper quickly served Junhou a cup of hot tea.

"Why do you still have a loom?" Liu Mo suddenly spoke, and there was some disgust in his tone.

Liu Mo is an expert in thermal weapons, and he is interested in the steam engine, only because the steam engine can promote the development of the steel industry, and at the same time speed up the design of mechanical manufacturing, so as to promote the research of thermal weapons.

"As for the loom, what is it? Antiques, useless at all. ”

Ouyang Shuo knew that he would have such a look, and said solemnly: "I can tell you that your research institute attaches the same importance to looms as the steam engine, and you can't pick a child." ”

For tech nerds, looms are not attractive.

But from Ouyang Shuo's point of view, the loom is a steady stream of profits.

"Okay!" Liu Mo replied very reluctantly.

The time of the tech nerd is very precious, and it is really harder for him to be distracted than to ascend to the sky.

Ouyang Shuo saw it, gritted his teeth and said: "In this way, when will you reach large-scale mass production of looms, and I will directly allocate 500,000 gold coins to you at one time for industrial funds, how about it?" ”

"Really?" Liu Mo listened and jumped up.

"You have no jokes!"

"Good. Two months, two months at most, will have results. Liu Mo made a military order.

Ouyang Shuo nodded, got up and came to the courtyard outside the main hall, "Bang!" Bang! Bang! "Several large items were removed from the storage pouch in succession, including a steam engine, a loom, and two Spanish artillery pieces.

Thanks to Ouyang Shuo's storage bag, which is big enough, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to bring these things back.

"This is a sample of a steam engine?" Liu Mo followed, his eyes lit up.

"Not bad. And that," Ouyang Shuo pointed to the cannon, "That's Spanish artillery, it should inspire you to develop new artillery." ”

When Liu Mo heard this, he stepped forward to take a closer look at the Spanish artillery.

Then, Ouyang Shuo saw that Liu Mo kept taking out tools from the storage bag, rulers, magnifying glasses, hammers, charcoal, notebooks, etc., and there were some tools that Ouyang Shuo didn't know at all.

Emotional Liu Mo's storage bag is the real treasure bag.

Then, Ouyang Shuo saw that Liu Mo began to ask someone to get a large cutting tool, looking at the posture, this technical nerd was about to disassemble the Spanish artillery on the spot.

"Wait, wait."

Ouyang Shuo stopped Liu Mo and took out a thick booklet again, "Take a look at this." ”

Liu Mo took a look, "What is this?" "Atlantean Mimic Aircraft Manufacturing Technology Manual", the legendary scientific and technological achievements of the Atlantean civilization? ”

"You research and see if you can be sure that it will be made." Ouyang Shuo nodded.

At this glance, Liu Mo fell into a mystery.

In comparison, the Spanish artillery could no longer attract Liu Mo's attention. I have to say that Ouyang Shuo brought surprises one after another today.

"It's a bit difficult!"

Leaning slightly, Liu Mo sighed, but his eyes were very hot.

The greater the challenge, the more exciting it will be for tech nerds.

"You guys take your time." Ouyang Shuo saw that it was getting late, took out the last item, which was a delicate wooden box, handed it to Liu Mo, and prepared to leave.

"What kind of technology is this?" Liu Mo was curious.

Ouyang Shuo sighed, "That's not a technique, it's a gift I brought to my uncle and aunt." ”

He heard that Liu Mo was too involved in research, and he entered the No. 7 Research Institute a little "relapse", just like in reality before, he plunged into research headlong and didn't care about his family.

Listening to Song Jia, this righteous brother has not been home for two months and has been staying in the research institute.

Liu Mo held the wooden box, and his body stiffened.

Ouyang Shuo couldn't say anything, and patted him on the shoulder, "Scientific research is important, if you have time, you should take time to spend more time with the elderly, they miss you a lot." ”

With that, Ouyang Shuo left.

Liu Mo was left alone, holding a wooden box, standing in the middle of the compound in a daze.

************

August 22, Shanhai City, Wuji Palace.

Ouyang Shuo got up early, and after the morning exercise, Song Jia had already gotten up and prepared hot water for him to bathe. After taking a bath, Song Jia took the crown dress and prepared to serve Ouyang Shuo to change clothes.

"No, bring the armor." Ouyang Shuo shook his head.

"Today is the husband's first court meeting, are you wearing a military uniform?" Song Jia was puzzled.

"Not bad!"

Ouyang Shuo must send a signal to the outside world that Shanhai City will govern the country with force and establish the country with force.

Two or three days after coming back, Ouyang Shuo's promotion to duke seemed to be a major event, and it seemed that there was only one reward from the imperial court, and everything else remained the same, even the title of the subordinate did not change.

Of course, there is more to it than that.

Compared with the marquis, the duke has risen a notch, which is equivalent to another qualitative change.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, even if he was the king of a country, the title may not necessarily reach the duke. Especially in the Spring and Autumn Period, such as the Duke of Qi Huan, the Duke of Song Xiang, the Duke of Jin Wen, and the Duke of Qin Mu, they were all known as them.

Of course, the word in the middle is their posthumous nickname.

The real title should be the Duke of Qi, the Duke of Song, the Duke of Jin, the Duke of Qin, and so on.

It was not until the end of the Spring and Autumn Period that the strongest of the princes began to claim the throne, such as the King of Chuzhuang, that is, the King of Chu at that time. By the end of the Warring States Period, Qin and Qi were even called the Eastern and Western Emperors.

At that time, the Zhou royal family had already existed in name only.

How to call the sovereign, in China, there is a lot of knowledge in it.

It is precisely in this way that it is necessary to make uniform changes on solemn occasions.

According to the ancient custom, after Ouyang Shuo was promoted to duke, his subordinates' title for him would be changed to "Junshang". When Shanhai City was founded and Ouyang Shuo was called king, it was changed to "king" again.

As for "Emperor" and "Emperor", they are titles that can only be had by a higher level of dynasty and emperor.

There are rules for everything.

At the same time, the previous political and military discussions were also uniformly changed to the court meeting.

Therefore, today is the first court meeting in the history of Shanhai City, which is of great significance.

On such a day, Ouyang Shuo's words and deeds will be interpreted by his subordinates and release signals. Ouyang Shuo gave up his crown clothes and changed into military uniforms, and this was his intention.

……

At eight o'clock in the morning, the ministers were already waiting in the main hall.

In the past, giants like the director of the General Administration had seats in the main hall, and they could sit cross-legged, with a table in front of them, and a tea and fruit plate on the table.

The current main hall, except for the high seat of the lord, the rest are empty. The officials of the Department of Culture have taken advantage of the two days to arrange the main hall in accordance with the new etiquette system.

At the time of the court meeting, except for Ouyang Shuo, the other ministers had to stand.

This is the majesty of the "king", even Ouyang Shuo can't control it, and he must follow the etiquette system. Fortunately, such a court meeting is not held every day.

As a rule, the court meeting is held twice a month.

Usually, Ouyang Shuo handles government affairs in the imperial study, and the ministers naturally don't have to stand all the time.

At this moment, the secretary Lang Bai Nanpu announced: "Your Excellency is coming!" ”

Ouyang Shuo was dressed in a military uniform, with a Chixiao sword at his waist, holding the emperor's seal, and slowly walked into the main hall from behind the screen, standing in front of the desk, with a solemn and solemn expression.

"Meet Your Majesty!"

In an instant, in the main hall, hundreds of ministers bowed down in unison. What they did was the most authentic courtesy of a monarch and a minister, bowing their heads.

With Ouyang Shuo's concept, it is natural that he is not used to the kneeling ceremony of the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties.

The ancients believed that kneeling was acceptable only for statues of gods, and emperors were not qualified to do so; Moreover, the ancient emperors paid attention to benevolence and love for the people, and they could not tolerate the theory of bowing down spiritually.

Especially in the Qing Dynasty, treating ministers as slaves was even more trampling on personality.

Ouyang Shuo, a modern person, is even more unacceptable. Letting Xiao He, Fan Li and other ministers kneel down is simply an insult to their personality.

Emperor Qin and Han Wu, Tang Sect and Song Ancestors, did not prosper this set.

"Zhuqing get up!"

Ouyang Shuo is calm and calm, because he has not yet founded the country, and he is a little evasive in the use of words.

"Thank you!"

The ministers got up and saw the prince dressed in military uniforms, and his eyes froze.

Du Ruhui, Huo Quzhi and other military ministers were naturally excited. Xiao He and the other Wenchen's hearts trembled slightly.

Your Majesty's move is of great significance!

Fortunately, the three giants of Xiao He, Fan Li and Wei Ying, strictly speaking, are not pure Wenchen. They are all men of both civil and military skills, but they are not comparable to the Confucian scholars of later generations.

Besides, this is a wilderness, a troubled era comparable to the Warring States period.

The rule of Wenchen is basically unrealistic.

Ouyang Shuo took the main seat, looked at the front with a long gaze, and said, "Today's court meeting, discuss one matter first." ”
