Daqin: Take the bamboo shoots, Zulong eavesdropped on my heart!

Yingzheng thought of something, and suddenly his heart moved, and he immediately asked, "You mean, you want to use waterwheels in the place where iron ore is mined?"

【Ah... that's not what I meant...】

Feng Zhengxin said, [At Zhouzhi, there is not such a suitable river to build a waterwheel power! 】

kindness?

No?

After hearing Feng Zheng's aspirations, Ying Zheng was taken aback again.

No, what is that?

"Your Majesty, the waterwheel must have a suitable river channel, and there is no suitable one there."

Feng Zheng said with a smile, "So, you can't rely on the water conservancy of the river."

"If so, what should we do?"

After listening to Feng Zheng's words, Ying Zheng continued to ask.

"The minister's idea is to use another way to mine iron."

"Oh? Another one?"

After hearing this, Ying Zheng asked in confusion, "What is it?"

"Using coal as firewood, boiling water as power, and steel as the skeleton."

Feng Zheng explained, "This thing is called a steam device, and it can also be called a steam engine. If it can be implemented, it must be far better than pure human power."

what?

steam?

Using coal as firewood, boiling water as power, and steel as the skeleton?

After hearing Feng Zheng's words, Ying Zheng was puzzled for a while.

What is Feng Zheng talking about?

Steam engine?

What exactly is a steam engine?

"Is this thing really far better than pure human power?"

Ying Zheng asked curiously.

"Your Majesty, it is possible..."

Feng Zheng said with a smile, "It's just that this thing can't be implemented so casually, it needs some technical means."

"Oh? Technical means?"

After hearing this, Ying Zheng immediately said, "What Qing said is that this skill is taught in your school?"

"Your Majesty, that is exactly the case."

Feng Zheng said with a smile, "It's just that the teaching has not been fully understood yet, and it will take some time."

"This, it's a pity..."

After hearing this, Ying Zheng immediately asked, "How long will it take? Months, or years?"

This thing can far surpass human power, it is a good treasure!

"Your Majesty, it won't take a few years."

Feng Zheng said with a smile, "Actually, it is to let them understand the principle and production. It will be almost a few months... If your majesty wants to see this thing, I can make a simple model for your majesty first... But , I also need some time..."

That's right, a simple steam engine device, Feng Zheng can do it, but it will take some time.

The steam engine is equivalent to the essence of the first industrial revolution.

Feng Zheng knows a little bit, but he has never done it.

Moreover, this is not like making a simple gun and barrel, but a complete reciprocating machine.

Therefore, Feng Zheng himself also needs a process of exploration.

But Feng Zheng's own idea is that instead of letting himself explore and create alone, it is better to cultivate a group of talents who understand professional knowledge and plan together.

Even if they are all half-baked, it is much better than being alone.

This is also Feng Zheng's thinking style. It is better to teach people how to fish than to give them fish.

What kind of work, if you do it all by yourself, how tired will you be?

It's better to train more talents from all walks of life, so that they can have specialized skills and talents under their own guidance.

At that time, I don't have to visit in person every time, and guide everywhere hand in hand.

Of course, this takes time.

However, in this world, after all, it is much more economical than fighting alone.

If you have talents from all walks of life under your command, it is equivalent to having 1 more clones.

The amount of work and creation that day is equivalent to tens of thousands of days.

How many tens of thousands of days does a person have?

In a mere life, [-] days may be less than that, which is simply one of the few!

Therefore, it is definitely better to guide and train a large number of talents, which is more cost-effective!

Therefore, people have to be smarter and not let themselves work hard blindly.

You have to choose a more reasonable one!

Chapter 570

"Then you said just now that ironware is used in business to stimulate the demand of Daqin. What is the purpose?"

Looking at Feng Zheng, Ying Zheng couldn't help asking again.

"Your Majesty, I think so..."

Feng Zheng said, "For example, the Great Qin Dynasty was trapped outside the six eastern countries and urgently needed reforms. Therefore, all talents from the six countries were entrusted with reuse, and then Shang Yang reformed and strengthened Qin.

In fact, this is a relationship between demand and supply.When there is a need, someone will naturally find a way to meet it.

When the demand is greater and more sufficient, there will naturally be more people who want to find a way.

Such a relationship is like this everywhere.At present, it is precisely because of the shortage of money and food and the great demand that we will try our best to do business and engage in foreign trade.

When the whole of Daqin has a demand for iron, then the whole society will naturally think of a more appropriate way to mine and use iron... Moreover, at this time, the prosperity and cost of the iron-making industry are not caused by the imperial court alone. To be responsible, but, from the imperial court, to the people... The minister said this, not very detailed, I wonder if Your Majesty, can you know the minister's foolish opinion? "

kindness?

After hearing Feng Zheng's words, Ying Zheng was slightly taken aback.

When there is a demand, someone will naturally find a way to meet it?

This principle seems to be somewhat reasonable...

However, for this set of commercial supply and demand, Ying Zheng could not completely understand it all at once.

[Hey, I actually want to understand this, and there is a clearer example to explain, but I am a little afraid to say it...]

Seeing that Yingzheng was still a bit puzzled, Feng Zhengxin said, [For example, if you want to live forever and rejuvenate Qin Dynasty, you should ask the immortals to ask. Came to bluff?If you want something, someone must find a way to satisfy it. It is best to satisfy the person who needs it first, and you can also get stubborn benefits in return. This is the reason...]

[Moreover, at this time, iron smelting is used for people's livelihood. Can the people not spend money in order to buy iron and use iron?Wouldn't this be much better than the imperial court spending a huge amount of money alone to take responsibility?The pressure is no longer in the court's own hands, is it? 】

kindness?

After hearing Feng Zheng's heartfelt voice, Ying Zheng was taken aback for a moment, and instantly understood!

Oh, so that's the truth...

This example, for Ying Zheng, is indeed very simple, clear and easy to understand.

but……

Ying Zheng said, why do you feel a little awkward?

It seems that this kid is scolding me in his heart?

Of course, Ying Zheng actually understood that any minister would basically murmur in his heart when he asked about the matter.

Almost everyone knew it was a lie, but because Ying Zheng pursued it too eagerly, neither civil nor military officials dared to speak out.

Speaking of it, this was also a mistake I made because I was anxious...

It's instinct to mutter in my heart, but it's my duty to refrain from speaking.

"Well... I understand what you said."

Ying Zheng nodded slowly and said, "What you mean is that iron is what the world needs. If everyone in the world needs iron, then the production and mining of iron will naturally become what everyone wants to solve.

And if everyone in the world needs iron, then the cost of mining and smelting will naturally be borne by the people of the world, instead of the imperial court having to spend huge sums of money alone to smelt steel, is this the truth? "

【Huh?Good guy! 】

After hearing Ying Zheng's words, Feng Zheng was also surprised, [Lao Zhao is indeed Lao Zhao, I have never studied political economics, so as long as I understand it a little, I can figure it out? 】

kindness?

That is!

After hearing Feng Zheng's heartfelt voice, Ying Zheng felt joyful, who is I?

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Feng Zheng smiled and said, "That's exactly what I mean... I don't know Your Majesty, what do you think?"

"You're right, you need a good ax to chop meat."

Ying Zheng said, "Since you have the magic preparation, then I can wait."

That's right, anyway, Feng Zheng explained everything clearly. According to the original progress, it is a slow word!

What are you waiting for?

Instead of this, why not use another method to increase the speed and efficiency after preparation is complete?

of course!

There must be a premise!

That is, the efficiency of this method provided by Feng Zheng later can completely make up for and reverse this gap.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of time?

"Don't worry, Your Majesty."

Feng Zheng smiled and said, "I will definitely find a way to expand the mining progress for Your Majesty, so that my Daqin can put on a strong and sharp army as soon as possible, and protect the body with steel."

"it is good!"

Hearing Feng Zheng's words, Ying Zheng nodded immediately, and then said, "Hehe, then I will just wait and see this day!"

Steam engine?

Ying Zheng was really curious about this thing.

If it can replace human labor, it must be a great thing!

Of course, Ying Zheng still had the vaguest understanding of steam engines.

I only know that if this thing comes out, it may replace some labor to make mining more efficient.

However, he didn't know that if the steam engine drove the operation of the steam age, then the entire Great Qin would undergo earth-shaking changes!

After all, the first time human beings entered modernization was when they entered the age of steam.

Of course, it is too early to say this now.

This is not a cooking skill. If you teach it to others, they will be able to do it all the time.

In the age of steam, a large number of technical talents are needed.

In Europe and America, in the age of steam, it has been developed for more than a hundred years and took several generations.

Relying on Feng Zheng alone, he would be exhausted to death.
