The next day, when Qin Shou handed the drawings to Qian Wanshan, he ordered him to start the copper wire. The first batch of brass wires containing 65% copper and 35% zinc were made. These copper wires were widely used and were also the ones that Qin Shou used the most now. Yuan Shenpu, the metal chemical elixir, knew where to sell them.

Qin Shou, who was rich and powerful, waved his hand to signal Qian Wanshan. He didn't have enough staff to get enough staff. Now Qin Shou doesn't have much money, but he has no place to spend it. His daily income every night is as high as hundreds of thousands of yuan. Rich merchants enjoy high-end life consumption, otherwise what would they do if they make so much money?

Of course, there is a very important part of the nightclub, beer! Beer and cigarettes are simply a classic combination. The life of drunkenness and decay. If you want to rob Fu Jia’s purse, beer is indispensable. After the bitter taste and ice, it will be refreshing to drink a sip in summer.

It is essential to make a good beer cooling cylinder. Copper plays an important role in beer brewing. In the fermentation tank, copper is often used as malt barrels and fermentation tanks. In order to cool down, copper pipes are often used to cool it through water, and water vapor is also used to heat it when brewing beer, and to transport wine with copper pipes, etc.

Qian Wanshan looked at the information and drawings handed over by Qin Shou, smacked his lips and said, "Young Master, these copper wires are too small either? How many types are there? This may require a lot of people and is extremely expensive. Now Qian is putting his pocket watch again. Master, is this worth it?"

Qin Shou touched his chin with one hand and stared at Qian Wanshan with his eyes and said, "Wanshan, if you don't have enough manpower, just ask. Now I don't have much money, so don't make up those copper coins. Leave a batch for me to send to the cellar under the villa. It will be antiques in a thousand years."

Qian Wanshan glanced at Qin Shou with a silly look. He didn't know what antiques were, but Qin Shou actually spoke up and he just did it. Qian Wanshan cherished his current job very much. Although he was working for others, the wages were jealous when the Duke of the State saw it. Especially Zhang Changgong and Wang Blacksmith, the old heroes, were all large ten thousand yuan players, envied people.

Qin Shou is now in charge of the copper smelting industry. There is no engineering construction now, so he is the first to manage the manufacturing of copper wires. Not only beer, but also the copper wires of motors must also be made. If conditions permit, no waste will be made. Copper is inseparable from improving the favorable conditions of life.

The copper wire manufacturing process is nothing more than hot-rolled copper rods without annealing. Smaller wires may require intermediate annealing. After all, they are made of wires made of drawing. They are also the most used part of the copper rods. They are the most used ones that Qin Shou has used most today. They have good processing performance and high conductivity advantages.

Hot rolling technology can significantly produce and reduce losses, reduce costs and reduce unnecessary waste. Qin Shou mainly considers that the metal has high plasticity and low deformation resistance during hot rolling, which greatly reduces the deformation of copper wire. If it is too hard, it will easily become brittle. What's the use of breaking it if it breaks in half?

Qin Shou spoke out and stopped Qian Wanshan's pace when he went out to do business and said, "Wait, Wanshan, after recruiting people, create five large 500-liter buckets, sealed, the entire entrance on the upper end, and a small opening on the lower edge, and a copper tube. Well, it's enough to have a diameter of a palm-sized one..."

After Qin Shou finished speaking, Qian Wanshan nodded in his mind as Qin Shou said, "Well, okay, young master, create five 500-liter large buckets, sealed in shape... I wrote it down, young master, do you have any other instructions? Qian went to do it together!"

Qin Shou shook his head and signaled Qian Wanshan to do business. The beer barrel was built, and the rest was to recruit aunties who brewed wine. As for the man who was not suitable for this job, if he recruited alcoholics or something, would he have to make things worse? At least, the aunts were careful and relieved.

Beer is made of barley hop water and is made of low-alcohol alcohol-filled wheat with carbon dioxide, which is brewed by yeast fermentation. The name of barley is now rarely eaten by people, and most of them are eaten by poor households. Of course, there are also cattle, pigs and other livestock.

Beer is made of barley rice as raw material, with a small amount of hops, and is made by saccharification and low temperature fermentation. It is called "liquid bread". It is a low-concentration alcoholic beverage and can even produce sweet beer. The beer has the lowest ethanol content, so drinking beer is not only not easy to get drunk and hurt people, but drinking a small amount is beneficial to the health and is very suitable for products promoted by night owls.

When Qin Shou was in a daze, but Mr. Qin ran over with panting. After seeing Qin Shou's figure, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Young Master, Huh~ I finally found you. Young Master, please go back and take a look. The emperor is here to find you again!"

Butler Qin was breathless and gasping for the message. Now Butler Qin is almost Qin Shou's secretary, and everything else is his job. The poor Butler Qin is still running so hard until he is old. Qin Shou couldn't help but wonder when he heard Butler Qin said that Boss Li was looking for him again.

Qin Shou patted the panting butler Qin, shrugged helplessly and said, "Well, okay, butler Qin, I will be recruiting a message when I have time. Thank you for your hard work, what is the emperor asking for himself? Good things don't come, bad things often come. Isn't it here to collect debts?"

Butler Qin looked at Qin Shou with a dark face. He said this to nothing. He had already been busy enough to manage the Qin family servants, but now he still had to jump around to find people. If Butler Qin was responsible for the current population of thousands, I'm afraid Mr. Qin would have been exhausted.

Qin Shou didn't know what the housekeeper Qin was thinking. With a slow pace, it would definitely be fine for Boss Li to arrive. Qin Shou's most feared thing is that Boss Li asked about food. There was a lot of food there, but the question was how to transport it? I guess the food and grass would come out and immediately attract the lurking pirates to attack.

Artillery can also shock them. These pirates have also seen the power of artillery, but the question is, where did the artillery threat come from when they were in the middle of the coast? Shipboard artillery was even more nonsense. If Boss Li had a developed navigation industry, he would have long captured the Japanese pirates and the Goryeo.

Today's nautical ships cannot support the addition of artillery. It is estimated that the ship will fall into the sea with a gun, and the wooden ship will swallow the sea in a short time. The two are not joking. The wooden deck will definitely not be able to withstand the breakage. The third is the recoil of the wooden ship will definitely tilt the wooden ship on the side when the gun is fired.

Unless the ships of this era only have the water storage and drainage functions of steel ships in later generations, they are all nonsense. The 100mm cannon is not fixed well. The fire will definitely overturn the wooden ships in the instant of firing. The current navigation technology has not developed into the large European steamships in the 80th century.

Qin Shou was also worried about how to transport food and grass and send troops to escort it out? How many ships of the Tang Dynasty were needed? Besides, the navy had to guard the sea surface at any time. They all pulled all the space to ensure that the sea area was empty and cheap, and the other pirates took advantage of the situation. Qin Shou would definitely not want to see such a situation happen.

In the villa study room, Boss Li looked at the floor-standing fan that Qin Shou had pulled out yesterday with curiosity. Because the transmission rotational power was not connected, the floor-standing fan was still moving. As for the hand-cranked floor-standing fan still staying aside, the tasteless hand power, Qin Shou felt embarrassed to ask Tao Yue to shake or something. It was too troublesome.

Two windmills turnover power points one of them and they will definitely not be removed if they use it. The other one was occupied by Tong Xueba. Before she woke up, Qin Shou was embarrassed to dismantle her. It was a headache to wake up Tong Xue. Qin Shou also wanted Tong Xue to sleep. There is no fun project now. The best way is to wait for her to sleep.

After seeing Qin Shou in, Boss Li immediately took back his curious heart and pretended to be uncurious. Commander Mao saw Boss Li's behavior in his eyes. The fluffy face and teeth wanted to smile but didn't dare to laugh. He would be finished after laughing.

When Qin Shou was showing his salute, Boss Li coughed and waved his hand and said, "Well, okay, there are no outsiders here, so there is no need to be polite. What should I do with you, you should know, right? Are you planning to drag it down if I don't come to me?"

When Qin Shou heard Boss Li's words, he knew that he was here to find fault. Qin Shou, who pretended to be stupid, said in a daze: "Uh~ This emperor, I really don't understand what it means? What is delaying? Please tell me clearly that I have been busy studying careers recently and have to look at family affairs. It is normal for me to forget some things..."

Before Qin Shou could finish his words, Boss Li, who was on the side, waved his hand impatiently to interrupt Qin Shou's words, sat on the chair that Commander Mao brought to him and said, "Come on, I'm not blind to you today. I'm asking for something. My nephew should know what promises he made at the beginning, right? Could you please tell me in person?"

Silently, Qin Shou felt speechless at this moment. Of course he remembered what he said. It seemed that he only agreed to a four- or five-year deadline. It has only been two years since then. As for the fact that he was so anxious, he had to exploit his own food and grass? Qin Shou felt extremely puzzled, and he was also anxious to pull out the food and grass to store food. He was always staring at by a group of greedy pirates.

Boss Li stroked the dragon beard with one hand and said, "Nephew, I don't know if I don't check it. I was shocked when I checked it. Sulfur is asking that the grain stored there will be almost as high as my side. Why is it that Chameng rice in two seasons a year? After planting in spring, harvesting in autumn, harvesting in autumn?"

After Boss Li finished speaking, the dragon's eyes burst into a strange light, which was very strong and dazzling, which made Qin Shou scream in his heart. How did he know? Boss Li actually found out his territory? This made Qin Shou both shocked and not confidentiality system enough.

Qin Shou, under the eyes of Boss Li Long, said with a helpless expression: "Okay, Your Majesty, let's be honest, I want to transport food and grass, but the greedy pirate is eyeing me. I guess as soon as the grain transport ship comes out, it will be attacked by the pirates immediately. After all, that's not a flat road!"

"Pirates? Well..." Boss Li also knew about the pirates. These pirates were particularly troublesome. When the army went to wipe them out, they scattered and couldn't find them. Moreover, their speedboats were faster than those of the Datang Navy's ships, and it was difficult to catch up if they wanted to chase them.

This is a headache for Boss Li. After the army retreated, they became active again. This large-scale extermination is essential for this mobilization, and it is still worth it to destroy the pirate gang. The most puzzled thing is that there are no results after the mobilization. This is the key point.

Qin Shou saw Boss Li's contemplative Nirvana, and after planning for a while, he spoke: "Emperor, it is an indisputable fact that the Tang Dynasty's navigation technology is backward now. Even ordinary pirate ships cannot catch up. Can the emperor feel a little unreasonable? The heavenly dynasty actually..."

"Random!" Boss Li suddenly slapped the table, interrupting Qin Shou's words, and his gloomy face made Qin Shou feel puzzled. Qin Shou stood there and waited for Boss Li to slowly figure it out. He believed that Boss Li would figure it out. It is an eternal truth that falling behind will lead to be beaten.

The backward navigation technology allowed Boss Li to understand the importance of sailing. His Tang Dynasty soldiers were very powerful, but what about the sea surface? They all became soft shrimps, and even ordinary pirate ships could not catch up. What else can they talk about suppressing pirates? Qin Shou's words were like a wake-up call to Boss Li, and Hang the Tang Dynasty's weaknesses.

Boss Li's face became extremely gloomy. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Qin Shou standing on the side for a moment and said, "Nephew, I see that you are not worried at all. Is there any way to do it? If there is a way to tell me quickly, I need a large amount of grain reserves!"

Qin Shou was surprised when he heard Boss Li's words. Through Boss Li's tired face, he was obviously a little overwhelmed. Seeing his expression now, Qin Shou learned something that Boss Li probably knew that there would be a disaster this year. The worst thing was probably a drought.

Qin Shou lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and finally raised his head and said, "Emperor, there is actually no way, it just needs the support of the emperor, and there are time restrictions and other issues. Well, Weichen means to build a steel dock and produce invincible steel ships!"

"Iron ship? Can this iron float on the water?" Boss Li asked a question that seemed a bit idiotic when he heard Qin Shou's words. It's no wonder Boss Li did this. It's indisputable fact that the iron can't float in the water after these knowledge exceeds the boundaries he knows.

Qin Shou, in Boss Li's surprised gaze, said with a big flick, "Your Majesty, everything must not be generalized, and wood cannot fly up the sky, but hasn't it still flown up under Weichen? There is nothing unexpected to everything, only things that cannot be done!"

Boss Li has to admit that Qin Shou has really created a miracle when he heard Qin Shou's words. Thinking about the fat chicken he made of wood, he really carried Yuan Shenshou. Although it was only a few quarters of an hour, that was already an exciting thing.

Qin Shou continued when Boss Li nodded: "Your Majesty, the Iron Ship can not only speed up, but also add cannons to enter. Even if the ship hits a pirate, it will be destroyed by the other party's ship. It is not a problem to carry more than 100,000 stones of food at a large size..."

Qin Shou is not exaggerating. Steel ships can be in the entire drainage outlet of the bottom cabin. If there are many foodies, there are more water inlets to balance the hull. If it is driven by an engine, the transport ship can also have a speed of 5 knots, right? As for the ships loading artillery, it is estimated that more than ten knots can be enough. Isn’t chasing pirates like adults chasing children who have just learned the way?

Even if the gun is not fired, it can hit the opponent's ship and destroy people. The hard steel ship is fighting against the wooden ship. Where can the wooden ships resist Zhuo's guns enough to fight them in one go? When the gun appears, it will inevitably be linked to Li's state-owned enterprise. This powerful steel ship is also a main project of Qin Shou. It is all about robbing neighboring countries to develop colonies!

"Oh? Nephew, what's going on with this steel ship?" Boss Li was deeply attracted by Qin Shou's words. The most attractive thing was that the steel ship was large enough to carry more than 100,000 stones of grain. If this steel ship really had such ability, the Tang Hang Hongyuan would have expanded greatly.

Qin Shou did not get into the topic directly, but instead said: "Your Majesty, it's not that the empress is talking too much. Today's Tang Dynasty naval masters must have pirates inside. Otherwise, every time they go out, the pirates will receive the news in advance. This is a very critical issue!"

Boss Li didn't expect Qin Shou to change the topic and pondered for a moment and said, "Well, what the nephew said is so much, I also feel that it is a bit strange. But my navy has tens of thousands of people. You can't just investigate anything with a little doubt, right? And this is a bit disappointing in the hearts of the soldiers!"

When Boss Li didn't react, Qin Shou moved to the main topic and said: "This is what Weichen is doing. Emperor, this steel dock must be personally responsible for preventing the loss of steel ship manufacturing technology and allowing pirates to produce steel ships after learning it!"

Qin Shou's words made Boss Li nod. This was not unreasonable. If the pirates really learned the steel ship technology, they would be so angry that they vomited blood. As for Qin Shou's responsible boss Li, he had no objection. This steel ship was originally responsible, and no one knew this technology.

After Boss Li nodded, Qin Shou continued to say: "Master, the most important thing now is to reorganize, and to open a new navy, slowly abolish the backward management of the navy, and after destroying all pirates in the Tang Dynasty, we will slowly reorganize the current navy!"

Boss Li stroked the dragon's beard with one hand, nodded and said, "Well, nephew, your proposal is good. I've approved it. Navy? It's indeed an interesting name. Where should this steel dock be located according to nephew's eyes? When will it be completed?"

Boss Li is most concerned about the matter of the steel dock. Qin Shou must be responsible for the shipbuilding matter. He controls it himself. If the steel ship really has the power that Qin Shou said, it will be a leap forward in the Tang Dynasty. As for the abolition of the navy, I am afraid that Qin Shou's steel ship will be built and planned.

Qin Shou pondered for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid there's only one to find a river channel that can reach the sea in this shipyard. We will train some shipbuilders first. When they get familiar with them, they will be in a scattered area of ​​Hangzhou and Quanzhou. It's estimated that there will be no problem in a few months!"

Boss Li nodded and said, "Well, my nephew's proposal is good. I have approved it. The naval affairs mentioned by my nephew should wait for the steel ship to be implemented. The only problem now is to find a way to transport the sulfur-required food and grass as soon as possible. When autumn comes, I estimate that the drought this year will have a lot of impact!"

Qin Shou bowed and responded, "Yes! Your Majesty, by the way, look at the memory of Weichen. The weather is really hot today. Commander Mao, please fan the emperor. Hey, it's not about holding a fan, but a hand-crank fan, just shake the handle behind it!"
Chapter completed!
