New Ming Empire mixed in America

But Spencer didn't have to wait too long before he saw his old friend.

After being brought into prison, Spencer saw Neville with a separate compartment at a glance.

"Shet, you liar, is this the big business you said? I sold my factory and came here with hope, but I didn't expect that this was your conspiracy!"

Neville put down the book calmly, looked at the emotional Spencer, and said calmly:

"Everything is doomed, so don't complain about fate. As President Li said, there are many surprises in life, but as long as you face it bravely..."

"Fak! Shet! You bastard!"

Spencer didn't listen to what Neville said specifically, but from the lack of embarrassment on the other person's face, it could be seen that the other person didn't feel any guilt at all.

The reason why he was deceived to the west coast was simple. That was because Li Mingqi sympathized with the logistics of both the North and the South of the United States, so he decided to help them nip the "wasteful" rifle like the Spencer in the cradle.

Different from Spencer's treatment, Meucci was specially recruited into the laboratory of the Royal Institution and began to study telephones.

With the "Theory and Development History of Telephone" provided by Li Mingqi, I believe that Meucci will be able to develop a practical telephone soon.

As for the other members of the Xinming Empire in the laboratory, their goal is also very simple, that is, to practice all the knowledge they have learned by following Meucci.

Then with the help of the wired telephone and telephone lines provided by Li Mingqi, a field phone that can be put into use can be developed as soon as possible.

Li Mingqi has even prepared the switch, and is waiting for professionals to take the lead in studying how to set up a telephone network in the Xinming Empire.

In the early stage, the telephones could only be distributed to each town. They were divided into two separate lines, one was a communication line dedicated to the Xinming Empire government, and the other was a public telephone for civilian use.

"Long live my lord, there is news from Jinyiwei that someone has copied our rotating machine gun!"

Liu Erhe was so anxious that he was sweating profusely when he ran to Li Mingqi to report this kind of thing.

You must know that it is not an exaggeration to say that the current rotating machine gun is the artifact of the Xinming Empire, but now someone has actually copied it.

How can this be possible? It must be dealt with seriously!

"Long live Lord, this must be a traitor in our Royal Research Institute. Please deal with it seriously!"

At this time, Lu Weiming, who came with Li Mingqi to see him, also said something.

He was not interested in the imitator. What he valued was the fact that there was a traitor in the Royal Academy.

This was the first top-secret leak that Jin Yiwei had investigated, so he couldn't help but not be serious.

Looking at the serious expressions of the two people, Li Mingqi thought for a while and asked: "What is the name of the guy who imitated the rotating machine gun?"

After hearing Li Mingqi's question, Lu Weiming immediately replied: "Your Majesty, the name of that shameless thief is Richard Jordan Gatling!"

"Now the people from the Umbrella Youth League have controlled the old guy and are bringing him back to the boat."

"Please also ask for Your Majesty's permission to let the Imperial Guards investigate the traitor in the Royal Research Institute. Otherwise, it will be unsafe as long as the traitor does not remove the secrets of the empire, Your Majesty!"

Hearing Lu Weiming's words, Li Mingqi had a dark look on his face.

What is this wave called? This is called piracy against the genuine edition! (Please also ask those who are reading in other places to go back to the starting point to read and support the genuine edition, thank you.)

Although he knew that this matter could not be leaked by the Royal Academy, Li Mingqi could not say it clearly.

Thinking of the current situation of the Royal Academy, Li Mingqi pondered for a moment before agreeing to Lu Weiming's proposal.

And he also thought about splitting up the Royal Academy.

The current Royal Academy is too large and complex, and there is no specific division of labor.

Thinking of this, Li Mingqi sent someone to find Zhang Yu, the director of the institute.

"I heard that the people in charge of artillery research at the Royal Academy now have to design new rifles at the same time?"

Li Mingqi did not directly say that he wanted to split up the Royal Academy, but found a topic and mentioned it casually.

After all, the Royal Research Institute was built little by little by Zhang Yu. It took a year from scratch to develop to where it is now.

"Long live the Lord..." Zhang Yu heard Li Mingqi mention the artillery and rifles, and thought that Li Mingqi disliked the Royal Academy's slow speed, so he asked him to give him some advice.

Nowadays, only a few senior ministers are qualified to call the title "Long Live Lord", while the rest of the ministers call "Your Majesty".

Because the rest of the people have studied in night school how the Puppet Qing ungratefully entered the country and how they committed heinous crimes on the land of the Central Plains (the following paragraph may not be left).

The Tenth Day in Yangzhou, the Three Massacres in Jiading, the Eighty-one Days in Jiangyin, the Massacre in Datong, the Massacre in Guangzhou, and the population genocide in Liaodong before the puppet Qing Dynasty entered the customs...

These sins cannot be erased by changing history by some descendants of a certain saint who came to lick the Yuan, who came to the Qing Dynasty to kneel down, or who came to the Japanese country and hung plaster flags.

The so-called compilation of Sikuquanshu by a shameless Shiquan Lao, to put it bluntly...

After understanding this, the people of the empire spontaneously began the activity of eliminating false customs and customs, and no longer resisted Li Mingqi's advocacy of kneeling and cutting pigtails.

What's more, Li Mingqi also advocated the custom of bundling hair in Hanfu, which gave an opportunity for those stubborn old people who were unwilling to cut their hair too short.

It's okay to have long hair, but you have to tie it up. If you have pig tails, you'll be looked down upon.

"There are still too few manpower in the Royal Academy, and there are too many projects..."

Zhang Yu explained a few words and then looked at Li Mingqi with some anxiety.

He is also a little helpless now. The stall of the Royal Academy is too big.

There is not only a research group responsible for studying how to reproduce the British pound, but also a research group responsible for the future banknote printing of the New Ming Empire.

There is a research group studying the improvement of artillery, and it is not just one kind of artillery. There are various types of coastal defense guns, field guns, naval guns, etc...

Research on various types of rifles, improvements on various rotating machine guns, research on pistols, etc...

Zhang Yu's head grew bigger when he thought of the massive research team.

"You should know about the reorganization of Jinyiwei, right?" Li Mingqi waited for Zhang Yu to finish explaining the difficulties and said:

"I want the Royal Academy to also learn from Jin Yiwei's experience and divide it into several specialized institutions."

"For example, the Royal Small Arms Design Bureau, the Royal Heavy Arms Design Bureau, the Royal Banknote Design Bureau, the Royal Ship Design Bureau, etc..."

Speaking of this, Li Mingqi looked at Zhang Yu and waited for his statement.

Zhang Yu did not disappoint him, but after thinking about it for a while, he expressed his strong agreement.

In fact, after the Royal Academy is split, Zhang Yu's status will be greatly improved.
