Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Chapter 561: Questioned in Court, Left in Shame

And not just familiar faces.

Among them, there were even a few who had directly participated in the production of experimental steam engines, mastered the core technology of the dynasty, and were the highest-level craftsmen.

But it was they who were proud of their achievements and even began to exclude the new craftsmen.

It’s not enough if you don’t want to teach those techniques yourself.

He also used this technology to maintain his status, acted like a master in the workshop, and gathered a large number of disciples to affect the normal operation of the workshop.

Looking at the craftsmen he had brought with him, Qin Ming sighed deeply and felt sad.

"Everyone, I originally told you about the steam engine technology so that I could help you eliminate those who are against me now?"

"Your Majesty, we know we were wrong. If you want to kill or chop you up, go ahead."

Faced with Qin Ming's questioning, these craftsmen were not afraid.

Among the most senior people, a man named Shentu Han bowed to Qin Ming and spoke in a very tough manner.

These craftsmen have mastered the technology and have many delicate parts that are difficult for anyone else to make.

That is why everyone is so arrogant at this time.

They do have the capital to be arrogant.

But in front of Qin Ming, it is impossible to do this.

"Shentu Han, do you think I can't punish you?"

"What you have is airtight technology, right?"

The steam engine requires airtightness between the pressure tank that boils the water and the cylinder that pushes the piston, which places extremely high technical demands.

Only suitable materials and technology can meet the requirements.

At that time, under the leadership of Qin Ming, Shentu Han researched the relevant technology and applied it to the production of steam engines.

This is an extremely important part of the steam engine.

"Yes, what do you want to do?"

Shentu Han didn't know what Qin Ming was going to do and looked at him with some fear.

Few people know this technology.

There are only two in the world.

One is him, and the other is Qin Ming.

"You are a talent of the Daqian Dynasty. I will not kill you for making such a big mistake this time."

"But from now on, you don't have to stay in the capital to enjoy yourself. Go to the north, it's more suitable for you."

"As for the airtightness technology, I will write a book and personally teach a few master craftsmen to do it."

Qin Ming shot the first bird to stick its head out, and with just a few words he had already decided on Shentu Han's guilt.

Shen Tuhan, who was originally extremely arrogant, was now sweating profusely. His legs were shaking, but he still said stubbornly:

"Your Majesty, besides the technical skills you mentioned, airtightness also requires a pair of deft hands!"

"You can't let me go to the bitter cold north. Without me in the capital, steam engines won't be mass-produced!"

Yes, airtight components require not only an understanding of the technology but also extremely sophisticated manufacturing techniques.

In this era, there were no large-scale mechanized components to help Qin Ming with production.

It can only be done by people.

Shentu Han boasts that he makes a living with his hands, and has boasted to people around him countless times over the years that his hands are worth a fortune.

But is the truth really as he said?

Qin Ming sighed and shook his head slowly:

"Shentu Han, how long are you going to remain complacent?"

"Do you really think that no one else in the world can develop this kind of technology except you?"

"Those young people are in their prime, and there are many who can reach your level, but they can't do it. Why is that?"

Qin Ming's words shocked Shentu Han's fragile heart.

He immediately retorted:

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Only I can make the airtight components you need!"

"Stop fooling yourself!"

Qin Ming roared loudly, shocking everyone present!

Shentu Han was even more stunned where he stood.

"You don't teach them the technology!"

"You still hold onto your own prejudices, afraid that teaching your apprentice will starve you to death!"

"No need to say more. The workshop can't accommodate someone like you who is so self-centered. Go north!"

As Qin Ming finished speaking, Shentu Han collapsed to the ground, not knowing what to do for a moment.

Life in Beijing is definitely the best.

All the technology and construction of Daqian are gathered here.

Originally, Shentu Han and his group of old craftsmen who followed Qin Ming to conquer the world were all heroes.

But because of his despicable behavior, he was exiled to the bitter cold land of the north...

This is tantamount to falling from heaven to hell.

Except for those who had made contributions to Qin Ming, all the others who participated in the attack on Qian Cai were directly executed by Qin Ming without any mercy.

After dealing with Shentu Han.

Qin Ming slowly turned his head and looked at the other people present.

"Everyone, make your choice: leave the workshop or be exiled to the northern border."

As expected, all the old craftsmen chose to go to the northern border.

After dealing with them, Qin Ming successfully arranged a new batch of craftsmen to enter the workshop.

These exiled old craftsmen were also required to make amends for their crimes and write down their skills in books to facilitate the future transmission of the skills.

After successfully completing these tasks, Qin Ming finally had some time to rest.

Ever since returning to the capital, he has been working to resolve the chaos Guan Yue mentioned, and has not had a good rest until now.

Now that I have time, I naturally have to take some time to spend some time with Guan Yue.

Guan Yue seemed to be aware of Qin Ming's progress. When Qin Ming returned to the harem early in the evening, he smelled the fragrance of broth.

"Your Majesty, it's so early today."

Guan Yue, with smiling eyes, walked over from a distance, holding a bowl of soup in her hand.

"It's better to come early than to come late."

Qin Ming took the soup bowl from the other person with a smile.

"I heard you've solved the problem of the factories and workshops?"

"Well, I just don't know when the money will be restored."

Mentioning this, Qin Ming sighed slowly.

Qian Cai has been in a coma since he was attacked a few days ago.

I still don’t know what to do.

Qin Ming and Guan Yue went to the Imperial Hospital to visit him, but there was nothing they could do.

In order to relieve Qin Ming's worries, Guan Yue suddenly said:

"Your Majesty, Wan Shu is here today."

"She said that in the Central Plains, on the Qunqing Mountain, there is a world-renowned doctor who should be able to cure Qian Cai."

"But this person doesn't charge for treatment. Instead, he requires transactions with others. People of different identities pay different prices..."

Hearing this, Qin Ming raised his eyebrows.

"Tell Wan Shu to invite the person over for me to take a look."

Qin Ming already controls the world, so he can probably satisfy the request of a doctor.
