Breaking through Guandong, I became Zhu Chuanwen

Chapter 286

003 Institute?
Chu Keqiu thought about it carefully. Hanyao’s research institute has a characteristic. The person in charge is in charge of all research directions, which is equivalent to the existence of a leader. Mao Guangting's main business has played an important role in the appearance of MSG. Now it is said that he is still researching some big killers, not necessarily using them all, but he is making technical reserves.

Hanyao 002 Research Institute, also known as the Weapons Research Institute, is the most closely integrated research institute with products. Its appearance builds and enriches the armed forces of the Zhu Family Insurance Team. Except for the Maxim and Krupp guns, which belong to the Qing court In addition to its legacy, mortars, infantry guns and improved light machine guns are said to have been put on the agenda, and mass production will begin after the technology is conquered.

Now the boss has asked himself to be in charge of the 003 Research Institute, saying that Chu Keqiu is not happy, that is a lie, the establishment of the research institute is not only supported by funds, but also in terms of talents, but the first research direction arranged by the boss is just It's so big, it's considered a detached research of a technology, but a research of a factory.

Thermal power generation, at present, can be regarded as a technology that changes the entire production mode of society. Simply put, it can be regarded as the combination of steam power and power generation technology, but the power is not the same.

"What? Scared?" Zhu Chuanwen looked at Chu Keqiu, who was frowning tightly, a little funny. This matter was not brought up suddenly, but an aspect of Han Yao's next layout, and the candidate had already been decided.

"I'm not afraid, Master, it's just that I've never thought about this."

"It's okay, everything is difficult at the beginning. This thermal power generation is actually related to the steam engine. You should think about it carefully. Let your subordinates do the construction of the steam engine and the machine transformation of each factory first. Now you have all the money on hand. Gun Factory, wait until next year, if you have funds, you will be the first to be allocated." Zhu Chuanwen promised.

"Understood, my boss, then I'll go back and think about it. If I have this time, I can go abroad to see it." Chu Keqiu's mind is in a mess now. Since the boss's funds will not be available until next year, take advantage of this time, It's also good to go out and have a look.Compared with building iron ships, this thermal power generation is more challenging.

"Okay, let's go, go to Germany and England, maybe you will have a different harvest." Zhu Chuanwen also suggested.

"Let's go, old Qu!" Chu Keqiu greeted Qu Zhenggan.

Lao Qu's complexion darkened again, everyone in this group has this kind of virtue, the shopkeeper Qu just called out so sweetly, put on his pants... No, after allocating his own steel, he will no longer recognize anyone.

The departure of several shopkeepers completely quieted down the steel factory director's office.

"Old Qu, with our technology now, do you see that the production of steel can still be increased?"

"Boss, I'm also thinking about this. Hanyao is still short of steel. Don't worry, I'm researching this production line. We can't keep buying production lines. I'm also trying to organize the backbone of workers to conquer this metallurgical technology. Qu Zheng said seriously, honestly, if there is enough steel, there is no need for these shopkeepers to come to the door. At that time, it was troublesome for me to sell these steel products. I diverted from Europe to the United States, which also made Qu Zheng Qian broadened his horizons. The industry there is not self-sufficient like Hanyao, but specialized in one industry, put into the market, and let the market decide the direction.

Today, the black chimneys of a city are not environmental pollution, but a symbol of progress. How did the fog in London come from? It is not the exhaust gas of the industrial age, but it is also called the fog city.

"Well, that's what I mean too. If you can make one, you can make it, but if you can't make it, you can buy it. If you work together, you have to cultivate talents. You have to wait until next year. When you have the money back, the scale of this steel factory has to be expanded. When Lao Chu leaves, the two You will take care of the factory affairs." Zhu Chuanwen walked towards the Hanyao Institute of Chemistry with an order, just now Mao Guangting made his heart itch, if that thing is made, it can be regarded as a boost to Hanyao.

Hanyao Institute of Chemistry
After a year of operation, everything here has become normal, and everyone is wearing a white coat, which looks like a future generation.

Facing the white crystal powder in front of him, Zhu Chuanwen asked, "Guang Ting, is this Heisokin?"

"That's right, boss, this is what you made from the information you gave me. The explosive strength of this kind of thing is 1.5 times that of the current dynamite, but it's hard to master." Mao Guangting showed the small amount of Hexogen He pretended to go back again, his boss is precious, in case of injury, although it is very safe.

At first, Mao Guangting thought that Zhu Chuanwen was going to develop in the direction of medicine, but when it was actually made, the power of this thing really shocked him.

That's right, the original appearance of RDX was actually for the raw material of medicine.

It can only be said that there are many coincidences in the development of human beings. The original project of the little blue pill was heart disease. Who would have thought...

Today's Hanyao, the main way to obtain yellow explosives is to extract toluene from oil and tar, and import it directly from Russia. It is not difficult, but it is always stuck in the neck. By chance, Zhu Chuanwen saw that article The paper written by the German Henning in 1899 was given to Mao Guangting for research. There are countless ways to obtain RDX, and now Mao Guangting plans to use the acetic anhydride method to obtain it, which is relatively less constrained by resources. In short, In a word - if you have the ability, you can make it.

Mao Guangting has figured out several methods for the application of Hexokin. After large-scale manufacturing, he paid equal attention to yellow explosives to support the gunpowder factory. According to the current test, the power is indeed much greater.

"Kwang Ting, can it completely replace the dynamite?"

"Boss, to be honest, this kind of thing is powerful, but it is also very difficult to detonate."

Zhu Chuanwen had heard about the safety of C4, and nodded silently. It seemed that he had to rely on Russian oil.

Of course, the Institute of Chemistry did not only study one kind of gunpowder, "By the way, what happened to the picric acid explosive you studied?"

"Still unstable..." Mao Guangting sighed again as he said, picric acid is really difficult to get, and this research direction has now become a bottleneck.

This is a new type of explosive that appeared in the Sino-Japanese War and the Russo-Japanese War.

The aftermath of the Meiji Restoration runs through Japan's future history. During this period, talents from all walks of life in Japan are emerging. Japan's "Shitase Gunpowder" is the picric acid explosive developed by Japanese chemist Masatoshi Shitase. The Japanese invented it in 1891. In [-], the preparation of picric acid was completed for the first time, and then it was impatiently filled into shells, which were successively used in the Sino-Japanese War and the Russo-Japanese War.

To make a digression, people always say that the shells of the Beiyang Navy were filled with sand, but in fact, in the era of giant ship cannons, such solid shells filled with sand did exist.There are two kinds of naval ammunition today, one is the "blossom bomb", which will explode, and the second is the practice bomb with sand added. This kind of shell mainly relies on the kinetic energy of the shell itself to penetrate the enemy ships. Armor, while dealing damage, cannot produce explosions.

In the Sino-Japanese naval battle and the Russian-Japanese naval battle, the Japanese took the lead in the use of flowering ammunition. Unlike the solid shells filled with sand and weighted at that time, the picric acid flowering ammunition of Shigase gunpowder exploded with amazing power. This kind of shell will melt through steel and emit toxic smoke at the same time. Both the Beiyang Navy and the Russian fleet suffered from this.

Today, Mao Guangting is making this technical reserve, thinking about applying it to artillery shells in the future.

"There is also my boss. Speaking of picric acid, I remembered something. It is a bit difficult to extract this thing now, but I remember that Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau imported 3 tons of picric acid, and it has been useless. We can look for it. " Mao Guangting said suddenly.

"Looking for it?" Zhu Chuanwen never thought that he would suddenly start the treasure hunting mission.

"Yes, my boss, I'm just looking for it. I heard about it, but 3 tons of picric acid are worth a fortune." Mao Guangting's eyes seemed to be shining.

According to what Mao Guangting and Nie Shize brought to the senior craftsmen, the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau of the Qing Dynasty imported 1890 tons of picric acid in 3, but the purchased pure picric acid could not be used due to the lack of explosive passivation technology. , It will explode when you touch it, and it will also explode when you leave it. At the beginning, the steward of the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau took the lead in finding a place where no one was around and buried these things for storage.

There was a senior craftsman who was a witness, just in time to go to the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau to send steel to imitate Maxim, and encountered this incident.Later, some insightful people reported to the emperor, saying that they could buy a machine to refill it, but Emperor Guangxu kept the book and kept it buried. If there is one, it has a history of 18 years. But it must be usable. According to Mao Guangting's current technology, he can handle these things.

"Can you bring it back?" Zhu Chuanwen asked slightly suspiciously. This is 3 tons, not 3 catties. Passivation is definitely no problem, but how to bring the ice city is the key problem.

"Boss, this is what I think. I will send people to buy this place, and then I will send people to dig it out, passivate it, and then transport it to Ice City. This is much faster than directly extracting it here."

"Understood, you wait for my letter."
