Qin Bin stood up excitedly, “How is the yield?!” ”

Song Yingxing replied, “Back to Your Majesty, according to the suggestions of Your Majesty and some craftsmen in the late Qing Dynasty, the use of steam engines instead of manual smelting has led to a significant increase in productivity, and now six machinery manufacturing plants in Taiyuan are being commissioned, and once the commissioning is completed, the total annual output of various steam engines is expected to exceed 50,000 units.” ”

“The total number is expected to exceed 50,000 units?” More than 50,000 units sounded like a lot, but Qin Bin knew that this amount invested in the Han Empire, which had a vast territory and a population of more than 100 million, was completely a drop in the bucket.

Song Yingxing explained, “Your Majesty, at present, this is already the limit, the local Taiyuan machinery manufacturing plant needs a large number of skilled technical workers, and it takes a lot of time to train skilled technical workers, and it cannot be achieved in one leap. ”

“This understanding is that although the Ministry of Public Education began to build vocational and technical schools as early as two years ago, the results are still somewhat unsatisfactory, and there are even many people who have misunderstandings about workers, and it seems that it is necessary to increase the publicity of workers’ glory through the cabinet… No scale. ”

Qin Bin summoned Changsun Wuqian, who was also a female official to record the documents, and Changsun Wuxian picked up the pen and waited for Qin Bin’s order.

“This imperial decree stipulates that in the future, grassroots professional workers who have made great contributions to the empire can be knighted. Let the cabinet make a reasonable reward and punishment system. It was also reiterated that the purpose of the empire is to pay equal attention to agriculture, industry and commerce, and anyone who discriminates against industry, agriculture and commerce must be severely punished, and I do not want to see the tragedy of the 24th history of China play out again. ”

After the eldest grandson Wuxian finished recording, he asked the female officials waiting on the side to send them to the female official group in the backyard, and after polishing, they would be sent back to the local cabinet.

Qin Bin paused for a moment, and then asked Xiang Song Yingxing, “Song Shangshu, how is the firearm?” ”

Song Yingxing replied, “Back to Your Majesty, it is also because of the use of steam engines, and the smelted steel can make stronger barrels, but because of the great prosperity of martial arts, the cabinet’s enthusiasm for firearms has dropped greatly, and the funds have been reduced a lot.” At present, it is only the Ministry of Works that continues to maintain the development and production of firearms, and currently only a thousand people drawn from the Royal Legion are tested in service. ”

Qin Bin nodded, “Enough, for the time being, the initial firearms are too limited, and in many cases they are not as good as cold weapons, and the cabinet’s judgment is correct.” In this way, I will transfer two thousand people from the royal legion to you, plus the original one thousand people, a total of three thousand people, to form a pure firearms force, of course, but because of firearms, you cannot give up the practice of martial arts.

Martial arts is the foundation of its own strength, and firearms are just a kind of weapon, don’t put the cart before the horse.

The force is currently mainly engaged in experimenting with firearms and gaining experience. Once the quality of firearms is excellent, it will inevitably replace cold weapons in the future.

In addition, in the future, the Firearms Bureau will be established separately, with R&D and production funds provided directly by the Crown, and the funds invested in the Firearms Bureau by the Cabinet will be transferred to research and development of civilian machinery.

As for the steam engine, full development, in particular, must be put on the agenda as soon as possible and go all out, after all, whether it is a local war or a conquest of the new world, the pressure on logistics is extremely difficult to switch to steam trains for transportation, the logistical pressure of the empire will be greatly reduced, and it will also greatly liberate manpower, and then the problem of imperial human resources will be alleviated…”

Qin Bin was speaking, and suddenly a female official came to report, “Your Majesty, there is a woman surnamed Zhu outside the palace who is visiting with her disciples. ”

“Zhu Yuyan is here… Waiting in the guest room… Years?! What are you doing here?! Qin Bin said, finally saw the appearance of the female official who came to report, and was also startled, no wonder the voice just now was so familiar.

“Hee-hee, the eldest brother hasn’t seen him for a long time, Wannian is now a member of the royal female official group~” Wannian said with a smile.

At this time, Wannian is no longer the little guy of the year, but an older mature woman in her twenties.

However, because of the “Basic Internal Strength of the Great Han”, Wan Nian looks only sixteen or seven years old, and he is beautiful and moving, and he is the dream lover of the young people of the entire Han Empire. Unfortunately, Wan Nian has always refused to recruit horses, and even once made trouble with Qin Bin because of the problem of recruiting horses, and went to the Royal Government of the Imperial University for boarding and further study in a fit of anger, and was unwilling to return to the palace to see Qin Bin every New Year’s holiday.

This also caused Qin Bin to have not seen ten thousand years for almost two or three years.

And the appearance of Wannian also made it inconvenient for Song Yingxing and others to stay, so they quickly retreated, and then pulled Mengxin Lu Miaozi out of the hall of the office.

Similarly, Changsun Wuji seemed to have received news from the female official group early in the morning, so after Song Yingxing and the others retreated, Changsun Wuji also retreated, but when he retreated, Changsun Wuji looked at Qin Bin and Wan Nian’s eyes somewhat strangely.

Outside, Lu Miaozi still looked inexplicable.

However, Song Yingxing and Huang Chengyan smiled bitterly helplessly, and seeing Lu Miaozi like this, they planned to explain to Mengxin Lu Miaozi.

Song Yingxing these days after contact with Lu Miaozi, but also very much appreciate Lu Miaozi’s talent, under a short period of contact, Song Yingxing will Lu Miaozi as the new Ministry of Works Shangshu to train, after all, Song Yingxing originally belongs to technical and academic talents, and does not like officialdom, if not for the Imperial Ministry of Works has not had a suitable candidate to preside over the overall situation, Song Yingxing may have applied for a transfer long ago.

As for Huang Chengyan, the left attendant of the Ministry of Work, in essence, like Song Yingxing, he is both technical and academic talents, and he does not like officialdom very much, so in private, Song Yingxing has discussed with Huang Chengyan and made every effort to cultivate Lu Miaozi, once Lu Miaozi heals his injuries and recovers his youth through the “Basic Internal Strength of the Great Han”, he will report to the cabinet, and let the cabinet transfer Song Yingxing and Huang Chengyan to the Gewu Division to specialize in scientific research. As for the position of Shangshu of the Ministry of Work, just throw it to Mengxin Lu Miaozi.

Therefore, Song Yingxing and Huang Chengyan quickly pulled Lu Miaozi out of the hall of the office, because the things inside must not be mixed.

Of course, Lu Miaozi was confused, after all, he was discussing business just now, why did he suddenly interrupt like this?

Song Yingxing and Huang Chengyan looked at each other, and seeing that there was no one left and right, and the female guard was far away, Song Yingxing whispered, “Lu Shilang, since the Dong Zhuo Rebellion, Princess Wannian has been taken by His Majesty and personally raised, it’s just…”

“Oh, that one just now was actually the Princess of Wannian Province. Song Shangshu, this 10,000-year-old princess needs me to wait for avoidance? Why? “Lu Miaozi is also a person who has read a lot of poetry books, and also knows the existence of Princess Wannian , although there is only a mention of Princess Wannian in the history books, but also because there are only two direct relatives of Emperor Shao of Han, namely Princess Wannian and later Emperor Xian of Han, so Lu Miaozi still remembers the historical figure of Princess Wannian .

“It’s not to avoid the question, but…” Song Yingxing was a little difficult to say, but at this time Huang Chengyan did speak, after all, he still has the identity of the abbot, so he is not afraid of things.

Huang Chengyan said, “Because she has been with His Majesty since childhood, Princess Wannian has special feelings for His Majesty, so…”

Lu Miaozi understood this time, and his eyes widened. _
