Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 34 New Technology
"Oh? Their goal is latex leather and springs?" Xiao Tang was taken aback, "I'm not afraid of spring steel. It requires comprehensive efforts in mineral processing, iron smelting, and steelmaking. It doesn't take a while. It can be understood, but latex leather technology needs to be carefully considered. Large-scale planting of gum trees has only begun to be promoted in North Luzon and Jinzhou. It is difficult to achieve significant results within a year or two. Now it is entirely dependent on Jinzhou and North Lu The wild gum trees in the Song Dynasty collect glue, but there are wild gum trees in many places in Sanjiang and Tiannan. Although we are now importing a large amount of glue from the south in the name of being used as lacquer, once the Lin family or the Lang family masters this technology, I am afraid that we will never even think about importing a barrel of glue from them, and it will also break our monopoly on latex, so the processing technology of glue must be conservative.”
"Well, the import issue is on the one hand. We can also import from the Grand Duchy of Luzon, but if we want to monopolize technology, we must keep the technology in our hands as much as possible. It needs to be strengthened. Some people have already started to think about it, which means that these things will be valued by outsiders sooner or later. The Lin family is just one step ahead. I think the Science and Technology Development Department may have to move to a place in the Economic Development Agency. Firstly, the territory is too narrow, which is not conducive to future development; secondly, it is too obvious, attracting attention and not conducive to secrecy." Wu Feng also nodded, "Both the security department and the internal affairs department need to list the security and confidentiality work of the Science and Technology Development Department As the key point, the importance here is no less than the defense of other key parts.”
"Brother Xiao, since the rubber and spring steel sheets are so effective, we can't just let Wei Dongchen take advantage of them?" Su Qin suddenly thought of this question.
"Of course, right now the production of rubber and spring steel sheets is still directly controlled by us, and we provide them to Jinzhou's vehicle workshop. Of course, the price will definitely not be cheap, but the adults want to use this production I don’t quite agree with transferring the technology of the film to those merchants to produce it themselves, Brother Su, what do you think?” Xiao Tang made no secret of his dissatisfaction with Wufeng’s opinion on this.
"Transfer?" Su Qin was also taken aback. He usually doesn't care much about economic affairs. He only knows that these two things were developed by the Science and Technology Development Department not long ago. The effect is very obvious. When it comes to making profits, the current Qingyang Rubber Factory and Qingyang Iron Factory are government-run workshops, and they can borrow huge sums of money from these two factories. Why do you suddenly think of selling them?
"My lord wants to transfer these two technologies, but what are your plans? These two technologies are new products that we have just developed. With the government-run workshop we now control, we can also take advantage of the opportunity and wait for a little longer Wouldn't it be better to push it out a bit?" Su Qin pondered for a while and put forward his own opinion, and he didn't quite agree with his boss's idea.
"Hehe, I don't mean to transfer it immediately. Even if the spring steel sheet is transferred, no one can afford it for a while. From the selection of ores to the smelting of pig iron to the refining of steel, there are several in the Northwest. Can businesses afford it? It is difficult to mass-produce. As for latex, although it is only used in vehicles at present, I estimate that as new uses are developed, the amount will increase sharply. I'm afraid it will be difficult to meet the needs of the production force. So I think it is necessary to transfer or expand reproduction in a suitable way at the right time, in exchange for more funds for our Northwest." Wu Feng explained with a smile, of course he will not do it again The transfer of these two technologies under the current circumstances is just a vague forward-looking idea.
"I still don't think it can be transferred. Right now, the construction of our Northwest smelting plant has entered the final stage, and we don't have much need for funds. The gold and silver obtained from the Punjabs alone are enough for us to digest It’s been a while, and the finances in the Northwest are getting better day by day. We don’t need these technologies that are related to the national economy and the people’s livelihood. As for the expansion of production through joint ventures mentioned by the adults, I don’t think it is necessary. Now we can invest in expanding production on our own. If it is not affected Due to the limitation of raw materials, I have already expanded the scale of Qingyang Rubber Factory." Xiao Tang still insisted on his opinion.
"Well, Xiao Tang, what you said is also reasonable, but there is no need to expand the scale of Qingyang Rubber Factory. I think it is possible to build a new rubber factory in Weito or Shuangdui. After all, it is closer to the raw material and can reduce Transportation pressure, as for the Qingyang Rubber Factory, it can be used as a test base for the Science and Technology Development Department, and some new uses can be tested and practiced here first." Wufeng does not intend to argue with the other party on this issue, anyway, he has not discussed it in the near future The intention to transfer these two technologies.
"I can't see that our technology development department still has such a great ability. These two new things alone are enough to earn enough profits for us." Su Qin sighed, "Usually I always feel that they are only I can make some small troubles, but I didn’t expect the created things to be so effective.”
"Su Qin, don't underestimate these guys. I have a deep understanding of how valuable they are now." Wufeng's face was full of confidence, "If the Battle of Longdong was not invented by these guys Tongbai Poison Gas, hehe, we may not be able to win if we pay at least one more division of casualties, you must know how much a division's skilled soldiers are worth, it is immeasurable!"
Seeing that Wufeng spoke highly of the role of the Science and Technology Development Department, Xiao Tang also felt that his face was quite radiant. The military has always believed that the government is holding them back and restricting their development. Now Wufeng's These words also made Xiao Tang feel a little elated.
"Now they are researching a compound wrought iron method, which seems to add a new material to the existing iron smelting technology to mix and stir for smelting. It is said that the quality of the pig iron produced can be greatly improved. If iron is used in the armor of our army, it can reduce the weight by about half, and the protection of the armor will not be weakened much. If this technology is successful, think about it, what a great effect it will have!" Wufeng was elated when talking about technological development, and he talked endlessly.
"My lord, is it really that powerful? I heard that this innovative technology in iron smelting is not being carried out by one or two of us. But it has not been able to make great progress, our Science and Technology Development Department has only been established for a few years, can we achieve such results?" Su Qin was a little skeptical.
"Hey, there are some reasons here. The smelting of refined iron is actually quite related to the type of ore. The Science and Technology Development Department selected iron ores from Shuangdui, Lulong and Yinchuan respectively for smelting. Only Shuangdui produced The iron ore produced in the mine is the most suitable, and the probability of success is much higher, while the ores produced in Lulong and Yinchuan are basically hopeless." Wu Feng explained with a smile, during this period of time he went to the Science and Technology Development Department to learn more about it. Their experiment progress, they also know a lot about this aspect of knowledge, so they can talk about it clearly and logically.
Xiao Tang and Su Qin exchanged glances and couldn't help but smiled wryly: "Sir, it seems that I am a little incompetent as the director of the Northwest Administration. I don't even know these things, but my lord knows it like the palm of my hand. I'm really ashamed. But this For a while, I couldn’t find my lord. It turned out that my lord went to the Science and Technology Development Department. It’s good for you to pay attention to the Science and Technology Development Department, but you also have to take care of the business. Right now, there are still many things to be decided by the adults in the Northwest. I hope you can allocate your time reasonably. That's right."
Xiao Tang's self-reproach implied persuasion. How could Wufeng fail to understand it? Since he settled the affairs of the Mott people and the negotiation principles of the countries in the Western Regions, he has been waiting for this period of time. Take it easy, go to Jin Wanyi and Sha Yina from time to time to have fun and relax, and Su Jie from the Illusory Phoenix Sect sent a few stunning people, which were originally selected by the Illusory Phoenix Sect for the dignitaries of the Western Regions from thousands of disciples. Come out ~IndoMTL.com~ After a selection process, all of them are of the same standard as Shayina. No one said that he was not interested, but in fact he was very interested in it, and he searched for it every now and then to enjoy it. some.
Especially that Su Jie, ever since Wu Feng acted fiercely that night, it was just that Su Jie suffered some pain and Wu Feng tasted some sweetness. On the contrary, Wufeng felt a little bit reluctant to leave, not only went to Jin Wanyi much less, but even went home much less for a period of time. Later, Wufeng simply took all those girls into his pocket, and got a few girls' head soup, a few phoenixes and phoenixes. I have made great progress and gradually entered a higher realm.
Although Xiao Tang is not very clear about these things, but according to his identity, he knows that Wufeng often stays outside. With his temperament as a superior, he still doesn't know where he went. Wufeng was afraid of delaying things. He also greeted Xiao Tang Ling Tian and several others, so he couldn't hide it from Xiao Tang.
Seeing the clear expressions on both Xiao Su's faces, Wufeng slapped a little embarrassedly and wanted to perfunctory, but Xiao Tang didn't intend to let it go. It's a big event, which he and Su Qin have discussed a long time ago: "Since your lord is very interested, if there is no one around, you might as well take in one or two more girls, and my subordinates will watch Charlotte, who is serving the lord. The young lady is very virtuous and elegant, with straight eyebrows and a long body, with a thin waist and big buttocks. She is also quite affectionate to adults. Although she has some foreign blood, it doesn't matter to the overall situation. The subordinate once took the liberty to ask a doctor to look at her. This woman has the image of a man, belonging to the I believe that adults can be included in the house, so as to raise children as soon as possible, so as to stabilize the hearts of the soldiers and civilians."
