I, the patron saint of the frontier of the Tang Dynasty, was forced to rebel

Chapter 95 New Year Comes, Vientiane Update

"Hey, Mr. Liang, you are not the first person to ask this question. There are only so many real scientific researchers. We also need to cooperate with the machinery manufacturing factory to design, which is very troublesome."

Liang Ducheng frowned tightly, waiting for two months is nothing.

However, the steam engine cannot be preempted by other mining companies. Orders can be placed, but there is a queue for delivery!

Whoever gets the item first means that whoever gets the item first makes money!

Poor people in Puzhou are waiting to make a living, and they can't delay for a second.
"You just said that I'm not the first person to ask?"

Hearing this, Wu Bingzhong nodded and responded with a smile: "That's right, five units have been ordered for the previous ones, which are designed to mine ore."

"Five units!"

In an instant, Liang Ducheng couldn't sit still: "I want ten units, purchased by a joint venture with a local company, and settled in cash, can I supply them in advance?"

"That won't work. In business, we must be honest. They are first come, first served, and the order payment has already been paid."

"I will increase the price by 1 taels for each one. Can I advance?"

"Hehe, Mr. Liang was joking, you, Puzhou, can you give away so much? In one, the virtuous king strictly prohibits bribery!"

Wu Bingzhong shook his head with a wry smile: "I dare not accept it."

"Who told you that this is a bribe. This is money to buy time. I increase the price as a special design fee. You design and manufacture the delivery in advance. How can it be a bribe?"

Liang Ducheng explained calmly, but the eager eyes were clearly visible in his eyes.

Wu Bingzhong was dumbfounded, how could he do this?
The design of mining excavation machinery should all look the same. If you say to increase the price and speed up, others will not agree.
However, what can a senior official do!

In the end, I thought of a compromise method, no fee, but the test machine was refitted and the price was reduced to supply two sets to Puzhou in advance.

The testing machine is not unusable, but it has certain defects, and it is not dangerous enough.

"Master Liang, let me make it clear in advance. Although this is an experimental machine, it is not dangerous. If you have any problems during use, our company will not be responsible. The price has been reduced by [-]% for you."

"I know, when the new product comes out, replace it for me immediately."

Liang Ducheng left Lingzhou with two steam engines, and immediately found the government-run iron mine.

Huge machinery is driven by connecting rods and racks. There is no way to make it out of steel wires and fatigue-resistant metals. It can only be operated by racks first, and it is easy to replace.

Huge bucket, one shovel can go down more than dozens of people and one car!
Countless workers stared wide-eyed in disbelief!

"What is this thing?"

"Steam Powered Excavator!"

"This is a precious guy. He spent a whole 20 silver, and he just got a loan from the bank!"

"Hi~!"

The workers were stunned. Thousands of them working for decades may not be able to earn such a price.

It's just an iron lump, but it's so expensive!

"Why did Mr. Liang spend so much money on this thing?"

"You know what a fart. Didn't you see that this thing dug up our day's worth with one shovel, how much money can we make by selling it?"

"When you say that, it seems true"

The workers are discussing.

Liang Ducheng was very excited, and finally saw the hope of making money.

Iron ore and coal mines will be the next materials with the largest supply, and we must seize the opportunity.

Twenty states, excluding the areas that are being stabilized, at least six states have large mines, and everyone wants to take a bite of orders for armaments and foundries.

With the arrival of the new year, Vientiane is renewed.

Although it was night, the migrant workers everywhere were not cold-hearted.

Hundreds of desks are lined up in the mine sheds and in some factories.

There are piles of goods everywhere, but the workers are smiling and not so particular.

A large plate of dishes was served, steaming hot, with a pleasant aroma.

In the back, the female workers are busy cooking, while the male workers are smiling boldly and thinking about their future and current goals.

there's a row, an argument
If you have money, you don’t have to worry about being hungry; if you have clothes, you don’t have to worry about being afraid to meet people.

Children have a free school, and parents don't have to worry about the next generation being uneducated, and they will look good when they say it.

Just as they were talking lively, there was a huge shock, and the sky burned red in mid-air.

The dazzling fireworks are fireworks developed by the branch of the gunpowder production company not far away.

The scattered stars are extremely eye-catching.

The children scrambled to run over, causing cheers.

The eyes of countless people watched, in this cold night, it seemed that they saw hope, with endless longing in their eyes.

"Come on, have a bowl!"

"Dry!"

"Hey, this fireworks factory is amazing. How long has it been making such a big fuss? I guess it will sell well in the future."

"That's not true, this is an arms manufacturer, and this is the only company in the entire Tang Dynasty that can make it."

"Hahaha"

"Tang Kingdom, sell fame and fame, and it will be the world of the virtuous king in the future!"

"Speaking of which, we should really thank the virtuous king for giving us a stable and prosperous life."

Everyone was silent for a moment, then raised their bowls and bowed in the direction of Lingzhou.

Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help sighing.

The bustling outside, the sound of fireworks, and the flying flames dyed half of the sky red.

Under the bright lights, the students of the academy sat at their desks and studied hard.

There are only ten days until the exam!

It's time for the new batch of college students to graduate. They didn't participate in this grand event, let alone pay attention to what's going on outside.

Yes, it's just a passion and struggle to become a new generation of masters!
More, what I want is to become the defender of the people!
The New Year's celebration time is over quickly.

The persons in charge of each state completed their reporting and other tasks, and went back to various places to be on duty.

As the king of twenty states, Qin Mu finally realized what it meant to be tired as a dog.

For ten consecutive days, I slept an average of five hours a day.
Every day, it is also necessary to visit and discuss with relevant personnel from various departments and personnel from various places to adjust things.

This feeling makes people even sigh more uncomfortable than during the war.

In the morning, fresh air is inhaled into the nasal cavity.

Let him shake all over, wearing a long coat and punching.

Zhuge Liang and Lin Quan rushed over.

"Your Majesty, the price of food has been on the rise recently, and reserves from all over the country have been put into the market one after another and can last for at most five months. If you don't negotiate the price, I'm afraid."

"Farming is related to the life and death of tens of millions of people, so don't neglect it!"

Qin Mu looked at the two of them, but looked quite indifferent.

"The new crops that you were responsible for planting a few months ago, have they produced any results?"

"There's still a month to go."

"Then why are you in a hurry, if the market price rises, then find a way to stabilize it, persist for two months, and the crops will naturally drop in price."

Lin Quan and Zhuge Liang glanced at each other, feeling uneasy.

However, King Xian was so confident, it was difficult for them to say anything.
