shipyard

The scale is now quite large. It can produce 50 new warships every year. This number is enough in this era. These large sailing ships are not those small fishing boats, especially the required steel construction is based on the previous hundred refinements.

The price of steel is astronomical.

With the advancement of technology, these things would otherwise be cheap. The only drawback now is that there are not enough hoisting, cutting and welding machines suitable for production.

Simple lathes are available. As for power, water conservancy and steam are available, but they are not so convenient.

think

worry

Li Mingda sighed: "Concentrate your efforts and start to conquer the problem of steam engines. What do you think, Xiaobai?"

It was a difficult problem. Murong Xue weighed the situation and then shook her head and rejected Li Mingda's idea: "No, the whole steam engine is important, but our own development is also very important. The foundation must be solid. It's still early to build rails. All-metal battleships are also needed.

For a period of time, the steam engine cannot be rushed."

"The foundation is the most important thing. Datang is definitely the best in the world in terms of technology tree. We can't abandon our martial arts and mess up our position just for the sake of urgency. Gouzi, I know you are anxious, but how old are you now?

You are still young, so what if it takes another thirty years?”

call

Murong Xue's words indeed gave Li Mingda a lot of relief. Li Mingda rubbed his chin and nodded after thinking: "I know I'm anxious, but I won't give up. The steam engine must be put on the agenda.

But there is really no need to be too anxious, the five-year model will be launched in ten years or even earlier.”

Lin Dong didn't know what to think. Suddenly she put down the pen in her hand and raised her hand: "Boss, I have a question."

Li Mingda: "Xiao Dongzi, tell me"

Lin Dong: "Actually, the steam engine is not responsible for anything. It's just a boiler and heating problem. As long as it doesn't leak, it's fine. You've already made this thing. As long as it's strong enough, why do you want it?

As for those big guys that push the kiloton level, our current warships are only that big."

(⊙o⊙)…

Snapped

Li Mingda slapped his hand, and he was awakened by Lin Dong's words: "Yes, why do I always cling to those big guys? Nowadays, the technology of small boilers is not lacking. My Princess Mansion heating is just like this. It only needs

Just heat the water to a higher temperature and form steam to push it."

Murong Xue also suddenly came to her senses: "Yes, Xiao Dongzi's words woke me up. Why should I cling to those big guys? The small boilers are enough. Damn it, I almost got myself into them."

Um

The two of them suddenly realized

Li Mingda clenched his fists with excitement on his face: "Then we can stick to the wooden warship with an iron shell."

Murong Xue: "No, let's build transport ships first. According to the current situation, there is no threat to us in the Pacific region or other oceans. It is most appropriate to directly produce transport ships. Carry out transportation and trade first to develop the economy. If there is a war, we will now

The warships are enough. Even if there is a war, it will be enough to change the functions and mount some small steel cannons."

Um

Think about the gains and losses

Li Mingda agreed to the whole plan: "It's okay, but I have to wait for Xiao Momo, and wait until she comes to confirm whether it will go ahead."

good

Everyone said they had no objections, and the remaining time was to wait for Xiao Momo. Li Mingda casually thought about other issues, such as whether food can be supplied, whether Southeast Asia can make more use of it, and rubber.

Quite a lot, Li Moyun must start large-scale collection and production, lay cables and start preparations for the store era.

Panzhihua has gradually entered the all-electric era from the steam era, and there are also mines. The current mine production capacity is insufficient and will not be able to supply the Panzhihua Iron and Steel Plant, which is expanding its production on a large scale in the future.

dong dong dong

The sound of slight footsteps reminded Xiao Momo that he poked his head out, glanced around the conference room at Li Mingda, Murong Xue, and Wu Jue and asked in a low voice: "Is the boss looking for me?"

Li Mingda nodded and pointed at Lin Dong: "Come to Xiao Dongzi, we have some more professional things to ask you."

"Oh, okay, can you give me some food? I haven't eaten yet today."

Li Mingda: "What? I haven't eaten it yet."

Mo Mo: "I was busy drawing and forgot to eat."

"Oh, that's it. Li Mingda knows that for programmers and designers, it's normal for them to forget about food and sleep once they enter work mode. Just like Lin Dong, she concentrates on drawing her notebooks, so she is often caught doing it."

Murong Xue's words caused Lin Dong to feel extremely uncomfortable. He looked at Li Mingda and Murong Xue with a sad look: "Boss, why can't you let me keep a small record when you are all in love?

We won’t do it”

Li Mingda asked Lin Dong: "If you don't pass it on to the world, what will you do with it?"

"Appreciate it, appreciate it. If you don't want to pass it on to the world, you can see it for yourself."

Lin Dong started to quibble

Murong Xue and Li Mingda had cruel smiles on their faces: "Xiao Dongzi, you still dare to quibble?"

"Believe it or not, we will enforce family law on you"

Lin Dong held his arms and said weakly: "No."

嘤嘤嘤

嘤嘤嘤

Xiao Momo silently stayed a little away from Lin Dong. She felt that Lin Dong was seeking death.

as expected

Murong Xue walked in front of Lin Dong with a smile, held Lin Dong's hand cordially, and said to Lin Dong with jealous and gentle words: "Little Dongzi, don't be afraid, it's just a family law, it's not scary, as long as you get used to it.

That’ll be fine, yohoho”

fear

horrible

Xiao Momo moved his position back, and at the same time, even Wu Jue was trembling with fear. Murong Xue was usually scary enough when playing around, but now in this kind of scene, even Wu Jue was a little bit miserable.

Can't stand it any longer.

Scary

Seeing his family members trembling, Xiao Momo, who is not a family member, is also trembling. It's time for him, the head of the family, to step in and maintain it.

He walked up to Murong Xue, stretched out his hand, took Murong Xue's arm, and picked up her ears.

"Xiao Bai, don't be shy. Look, you scared Xiao Dongzi so much that he almost cried."

Lin Dong: “I almost scared the shit out of the boss”

"You're still being naughty, please be more honest."

"yes"

Faced with Li Mingda's lesson, Lin Dong instantly became extremely well-behaved, but she secretly swore that she would complete her own painting of the legendary story of the great Emperor Mingzun and Concubine Xue when she had the opportunity.

must.

"Xiao Dongzi has come to his senses~!"

"yes"

After pulling Lin Dong's thoughts back, Li Mingda asked Mo Mo on the side: "Mo Mo, do you have any research on railways and railways? Where is the best way to go from Luoyang to Jiange and then to the Western Regions?

Standing up and looking at the map in Li Mingda's hand, Mo Mo
