The sun never sets in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 56
Zhao Shimin had full power to supervise the production of the four-wheeled carriage. He was clever and willing to use his brain, and he put forward many constructive suggestions by brainstorming.

After learning how to draw drawings from Huang Sheng, he drew the drawings of each part, and the vernier caliper used for measurement was also made under Huang Sheng's suggestion, which is now an essential tool for every craftsman.

After such a four-wheeled carriage is damped by springs, although it is not as comfortable as the cars of later generations, it is no longer the same as the two-wheeled carriages of this era.

Now this carriage runs around the island every day, Zhao Shimin, Gu Haishan and several major producers continue to observe and study, and continue to improve and perfect.

Huang Sheng plans to design and produce a spacious and bright four-wheeled carriage with good shock absorption effect, and sell it to high-consumer groups to make huge profits.

This has been proven by later generations. Luxurious cars can sell for several million yuan, while cheap ones cost tens of thousands. Why can everyone get what they want?

A luxury leather bag costs 10,000+ yuan, but its use value is not as good as a bag worth tens of dollars. Why are there still people crying to own it?
No matter what, some people burn it with money, and some people do it because of vanity.

In the Ming Dynasty, I had steel materials that no one else could copy, had my own unique technology, and produced unique products in my own closed manor. Of course, I would always maintain the advanced nature.

All the craftsmen here are their own private servants and servants, and they actually have no personal freedom.

Give them food and clothing by myself, and let them have the opportunity to be rich. This is a private island that outsiders cannot reach. I am armed with strong boats and guns, and I have a perfect confidentiality system, and I will not leak the secrets for decades.

Another huge advantage here is that it is under Jiannu's nose.The powerful dignitaries of Ming Dynasty did not dare to come here to complain, which increased their own safety.

If in the customs, a certain adult or prince or honorable person who has a wrong mind, they only need to bribe a county magistrate and come to dozens of officers and soldiers from the inspection department. Apart from rebelling, the second way is to expose their skills. Walk.

This is a feudal society. In the face of huge interests, any force may open its fangs.

When there is no status and force, the possibility of making gold fingers to make products ahead of this era is very low, and the chance of losing one's life is higher.

Therefore, Huangjiashan Island is really blessed, isolated from the world, convenient to transport, easy to obtain labor, and at the front line, as long as one's own strength grows slowly, not to mention high-ranking officials, it is possible to negotiate terms with the emperor in the future.

The carriages are all handcrafted, each one purposely designed to be unique.

This will not only create many employment opportunities for the family members under his command, but also make the celebrities who buy them face.As long as you give enough money, Huang's family will customize Daming's only product for you.

Huang Sheng is going to take the civilized method of robbing the rich and helping the poor, and taking out the money of the dignitaries through luxury goods.

In the Ming Dynasty, the gap between the rich and the poor was too great. The rich had so much silver hidden in the cellar that they could never run out of it.

It is a joke to fantasize about making laundry soap out of edible oils and earning money from the poor. Normally, small people in Shengdou are reluctant to use a few ounces of sesame oil in a month, and they feel like a prodigal if they put a few drops in the dishes. Using such a precious product in the eyes of ordinary people Soap produced from vegetable oil will sell well?
Huang Sheng experienced the era of food scarcity. At that time, rural people used vegetable oil in this way, and soap was also a scarce resource, which needed to be planned and supplied.

The demise of the Ming Dynasty was largely due to the lack of food. As long as it is edible, it will be a strategic material in the future. Huang Sheng can no longer consume food resources to produce a large amount of insignificant soap.

However, for the purpose of earning money, he immediately began to produce a small amount of high-end soap. Anyway, he knew the saponification reaction, and instructed Zhang Laifu's eldest son, Zhang Youfu, to do a few more experiments to accumulate experience and he would be done.

All the raw materials needed can be bought, the production process is not too complicated, and the secrecy of the technology is strengthened. Craftsmen who master the core technology are not allowed to leave the island, and it is not allowed to visit relatives and friends here. It has become a military restricted area and produces soap on its own island. Technology will not be spread out in a short time.

Huang Sheng plans to produce all the fatty soaps with lanolin added. Now the island has started to wash the wool bought by Wu Xiang. The women use it to spin wool, and the lanolin has been collected. This kind of soap is especially suitable for women to use for bathing. In the future, it will be sold exclusively to rich ladies, wives, and courtesans of high-end brothels.

Without your own time travel, this thing only appeared in large quantities after more than 200 years, and now there is no profit of more than ten times that you don't sell.From now on, all the products made by the Huang family Kaijinfinger will go to the dignitaries to slaughter fat sheep, and the ultimate goal is to seek profit.

In the future, we will use the huge profits of industry to feed back agriculture, increase the investment in agricultural facilities, and increase the funding for agricultural technology research, which will have great achievements.

If you don't accumulate steps, you won't reach thousands of miles; if you don't accumulate small streams, you won't be able to form rivers and seas.Huang Sheng is not in a hurry to take his time, he has nearly 400 years of insight ahead of this era, and will always prevent all Ming people from being reduced to slaves of foreign races.

Gu San is also a caring person. He has heard his two sons tell the details of the ambush at Lianshan Station many times. Knowing that the Patriarch will use gunpowder to make bombs, he specially visited a few craftsmen who made gunpowder for generations to serve Huang's family.

Huang Sheng instructed these craftsmen to reprocess the thousands of catties of powdered gunpowder they had received into granules. Such a simple and creative move raised the instant explosive effect of gunpowder to another level.

They used these gunpowders to make bombs of different sizes according to Huang Sheng's requirements. The largest one used [-] catties of gunpowder. After many tests in the abandoned pier of the Ming army, such a big guy can blow up the gate and the door opening. .

Huang Sheng had a lot of gunpowder in his hand, so he made some bombs of several specifications, and made more than a dozen big guys weighing more than [-] catties.

He Xiang and Zhao Rui are two young girls who are as good as sisters now. Zhao Rui is a talented woman, and there was no one to talk to before He Xiang came to the island.

She can't chat with the busy Mr. Huang Sheng all day long. Although He Xiang used to be a big girl, in He Mansion, she was studying all day and talking about new words with the young lady.

She only waited on the young lady, and she was also served by a rough maid herself. She had a good temperament and conversation, and had a strong cultural background. Zhao Rui finally had a companion who could chat, and the two even held hands when they went to give lectures to everyone.

He Xiang really never imagined that such a fulfilling life awaits her. She teaches and educates people every day, drafts many systems for Huang Sheng, arranges his daily work properly, and reminds him of the work that needs to be checked urgently every day. She is busy And happy.

Especially looking at those servants who are fierce and fierce, she is excited. She has seen too many Ming troops in Shanhaiguan, and the troops of the Huang family gave her a shocking feeling!

Now everyone on the island doesn't call her by her name directly, they all call her Secretary He Xiang, the secretary's name is chosen by the young master, for this reason He Xiang asked the young master specially.

The young master told her that a secretary is a person who secretly writes for adults, is a private person, is one of his own, and is a person who knows everything.

He Xiang's face became hot when he heard this, and found that the young master was still staring at himself when he said this, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Anyway, it is enough to know that the secretary is the most trusted and closest person of the young master, and the little girl is happier, busy like a little swallow every day.

Now there is another small bed outside the screen in Huang Sheng's bedroom, of course Secretary He Xiang sleeps.Huang Sheng was very depressed. A little girl and two older girls slept in a big room with him, and he was still a boy in the Ming Dynasty.

He Xiang was inseparable all day long, and she was the last one to go back to bed to sleep. She came to serve her early in the morning. Gu Ling'er was still young, and she was at the age of lethargy. The girl's mission is forgotten.

Although He Xiang is only one year younger than Zhao Rui, she is seventeen this year, but she is the big maid who waits on young ladies. She doesn't know how to serve men, such messy things, and she doesn't know the structure of men's bodies at all.

He Xiang walked up to Huang Sheng and said strangely: "Master, you are going to inspect Liulichang this morning, why don't you want to get up again? What was it just now? It doesn't seem to be a ruler. Let the servants take it out for thousands of years. Don't knock on the son."

Huang Sheng hugged her to his side and whispered in her ear: "He Xiang, keep your voice down, don't let that little girl Gu Ling'er hear..."

He Xiang was sitting on the edge of the bed with Huang Sheng's arms half in his arms, listening to him rubbing against his ears and temples was a little disturbed.

Although she didn't understand, she instinctively knew that something embarrassing had happened, and said shyly, "Master, what's wrong with you..."

The two concubines are incomparably affectionate,...

It cannot be described here, and a thousand words have been omitted....
