Zhu Hongyu held Wang An's hand again and spoke in a sincere tone.
"There is no need for this, sir!"
"Go into battle and kill the enemy, there are soldiers to do it!"
"To govern the place, officials have to do it!"
"Farmers work hard to farm and provide food!"
"Workers worked hard to provide war supplies!"
"Businessmen work hard to circulate money and drive development."
"What you have to do, sir, is to do your research with peace of mind, make more and better machines, and provide our soldiers with more and more powerful weapons!"
"As long as we all perform our duties and do our best to drive out the Tartars and restore China, it will no longer be an empty talk!"
Wang An nodded vigorously.
Liang Asheng stood up and led the way for Zhu Hongyu, and a group of people walked into the research institute.
The institute is located in the center of Zhenyuan City. The entire building is composed of cement masonry structure and has outstanding defensive capabilities.
And for the sake of confidentiality, Zhu Hongyu arranged a large number of defense forces for the institute in addition to arranging Jin Yiwei to regularly engage in fishing law enforcement.
A full infantry battalion of three hundred men is stationed at any time!
No one is allowed to enter or leave without Zhu Hongyu's warrant or a document jointly stamped by the Military Government's Internal Affairs Department and Military Affairs Department.
The defense is extremely tight!
The researchers at the institute, except Wang An and Liang Asheng's masters and apprentices, are a group of officials who have shown a certain talent in science in several recruitment examinations organized by the military government.
These people are also unlucky. They only wanted to be officials, but in the end they were thrown into a research institute to study what they considered to be strange and obscene skills.
That’s such a complete piece of shit!
But what made them feel gratified was that even though they were thrown into studying strange and obscene skills, the Grand Governor still generously gave them corresponding official positions.
Moreover, the salaries and benefits of these technical officials are almost twice that of ordinary officials.
The status is also half a level higher!
After all, it gives these readers some psychological comfort!
In addition to these reluctant scholars, there are also some talented and extremely hands-on craftsmen.
It’s useless to just have people doing research, you have to have people who can produce the research results!
Although these craftsmen do not know how to do research, they say they have something to say when it comes to realizing research results.
The looms, spinning machines, and steam engines developed by Liang Asheng are all due to the contributions of these craftsmen.
What if those officials were reluctant to enter the institute!
Then these craftsmen are very happy!
You can become an official if you enter a research institute. Although the salary of a craftsman under the military government is also very good, no matter how good the salary of a craftsman is, it does not have the fragrance of being an official!
With the carrot of being an official hanging in front of them, when the craftsmen start working, it's called hard work!
What 996,007? The craftsmen said it was too weak!
As long as the liver is not dead, it will work to death. This is the norm in the research institute.
Also, although the researchers and craftsmen in the institute have no freedom.
But Zhu Hongyu was careful in arranging their family records.
Allocating fields and houses is a basic operation. Zhu Hongyu centralized their family records, allocated various resources for education and medical care, and piled up various welfare benefits...
It’s just a matter of splitting up a wife!
Of course, if someone needs it, Zhu Hongyu will not refuse this small request.
Zhu Hongyu is certain that he is definitely the ruler who pays the most attention to scientific research in the world so far!
He is also the best ruler for scientific researchers!
He deeply understands that attracting talents cannot rely solely on feelings, but also on promotion of remuneration!
…
Under Liang Asheng's guidance, Zhu Hongyu soon saw the world's first mechanical spinning machine so far.
The structure of the spinning machine is similar to the spinning Jenny of later generations. The existence of the flying shuttle increases the production efficiency of the spinning machine dozens of times.
Liang Asheng introduced the performance of the spinning machine to Zhu Hongyu.
However, when speaking, Liang Asheng's face was still expressionless, and his eyes were lifeless fish eyes.
Only when he talks about what he is proud of, a glimmer of light will burst into the eyes of the dead fish!
He kept reporting groups of data. Although it was very detailed, it made people drowsy.
If only Zhu Hongyu was a fool who didn't understand how important the spinning machine was to the start of the industrial revolution, Liang Asheng's project would have been rejected!
After introducing the spinning machine, the group went to the workshop to study the loom!
A time traveler said that the textile industry was the cornerstone of the first industrial revolution.
Textile Weaving, as the name suggests, requires not just a spinning machine, but a loom.
We already have spinning machines and looms, all we need is the steam engine to provide power!
Zhu Hongyu said.
"Mr. Wang, I heard that you have always been in charge of the steam engine project. I wonder how it is being done now?"
Zhu Hongyu has always been interested in steam engines, partly because steam engines are the key to starting the industrial revolution.
On the other hand, steam engines can be used in military applications!
Although the institute wants to make a high-pressure steam engine in a short time, it is not realistic to build a steam ship.
However, steam engines can also be used in military production to provide power for machine tools.
As long as Zhu Hongyu can make a hard knife head.
Then when the Liberation Army makes guns and cannons, they can directly use machine tools to cut and polish the barrels of the guns!
Not to mention the efficiency improvement, the performance of guns and artillery can also get a huge leap!
As for the hard blade, Zhu Hongyu probably has an idea.
He remembered that in his previous life on the water forum, he had seen a post about the simple production of tungsten alloy cutter heads!
Sprinkle tungsten powder on the blade of a steel knife, calcine it, and beat it, and then you can make a simple tungsten alloy blade.
Don't insist on quality, after all, the method is a bit rough.
But it should be barely usable. The worst thing is to replace the cutter head more frequently!
Wang An stroked his beard and said.
“Students are ashamed!”
"Although the steam engine has been developed and a test model has been built, the model is not stable and needs urgent improvement!"
A craftsman on the side stood up and apologized.
"Please, the Governor, punish us. It's because of our poor skills that we couldn't make the steam engine!"
The structural diagram of the steam engine was already available, and with Wang An, who had seen the real thing, guiding him, it was not difficult to restore the steam engine.
The only difficulty is manufacturing!
The manufactured model machines have various problems, including unstable operation, fried furnaces, too low power, and high energy consumption...
In fact, Zhu Hongyu can imagine these things!
When Wang Zheng was making steam engines, there were many skilled craftsmen in the Central Plains.
But now in Nanyang, the craftsmen of the military government have limited standards, and there is nothing they can do about it!
Zhu Hongyu did not blame the craftsmen, but comforted him warmly.
"I don't blame everyone, as long as we don't give up, we will be able to do it sooner or later!"
Zhu Hongyu asked Wang Andao.
"Mr. Wang, can steam engine manufacturing try standardized production?"
"Use vernier calipers to measure, use unified weights and measures to calculate, and strictly control the size and scale of each part and component."
"As long as the size of the individual parts is stuck, the assembled steam engine should not have similar problems!"

Fourth update, today’s update is finally complete!
