Chapter 1000 Scarce Resources

At present, there are two types of standard artillery for the new army, namely 6-pounder and 8-pounder.

After practice, the new army also needs a lighter 12-pound gun to facilitate long-range fire strikes.

If the 12-pound gun is cast in bronze, the weight will definitely exceed the standard. It is conceivable that it is difficult for a big guy weighing more than 4000 kilograms to maneuver.

At present, the French 12-pound gun weighs less than three thousand catties.

Compared with the loess official road of the Qing Dynasty, it is still too heavy.

Therefore, how to reduce the weight of the artillery while casting the mold has become a crucial issue.

The gunsmith from England clearly told Yu Zhu that he only knew the casting technology of the 32-pound cannon, but he did not know how to make a 64-pound heavy cannon.

In Yuzhu's mind, of course he knew it, the British guys like to play the little trick of keeping one's hand.

However, Yu Zhu was not in a hurry at all, no matter how anxious he was, he couldn't eat hot tofu.

Corruption among British bureaucrats is quite traditional.

It's just that in Britain, there is close supervision by the opposition and an independent judicial system. The level of corruption is far from that of the Qing Dynasty.

However, do as the Romans do!
As long as the British miners, steelmakers, gunsmiths, and gunsmiths all work in Dagukou, Yuzhu will have a way to completely corrode them.

Hmph, otherwise, wouldn't it be useless to be the person in charge of the office in the capital?

However, this moment, that moment also!

How can a majestic auxiliary king, the true ruler of the Qing Dynasty, eat, drink and gamble with the lowly craftsmen all day long?
In the small clique of the Jade Party, if you ask about eating, drinking, having fun, and how life is depraved, you can definitely find Sun Chengyun.

After Yuzhu returned to Beijing, he called Sun Chengyun immediately, and told him all about his ideas of corrupting British craftsmen.

Sun Chengyun was delighted when he heard it, and said with a smile: "My good brother, you really asked the right person. Among the few friends I have made, there are two who are more suitable to come forward to win over foreign craftsmen. One is Beizi Hai'an, and the other is Ma Ying, the young master of the Shunqin Hou Mansion.

"Hou Shunqin?" Yu Zhu thought for a long time, but he didn't understand. There is such a Hou Ye in the Qing Dynasty?
Seeing Yuzhu's doubts, Sun Chengyun explained with a smile: "In the second year of Shunzhi, Prince Yu Duoduo led the Eight Banners Army to the south. He was awarded the post of Chief Soldier of Zhenjiang. Later, when he attacked the Zhengshui Army of the Ming Dynasty, he unfortunately died in battle and was posthumously named the first-class Shunqin Marquis by Dorgon. The contemporary Shunqin Marquis Ma Sanqi is the son of Ma Degong, but he He had no son, so he adopted his younger brother's son as his heir. This heir is the little Marquis Ma I mentioned."

Oh, so that's the case, Yuzhu understood.

Yuzhu glanced at Sun Chengyun, but said nothing.

Traitors and not traitors are already in the past tense, why mention those?
If you really want to dig out the background, Yuzhu's ancestor Tong Yangzhen is not clean!
This is the same as the ancestors of the emperors and Hans. For dozens of generations, all of them were tartar obedient citizens with shaved hair.

The dirty things in the past can only be turned over lightly, there is no way to get to the bottom of it!

Heroes don't ask where they come from!

History books are written by the victors!

"My good brother, this Hai'an has a great skill at observing words and expressions. When I raise my eyebrows, he knows that the food is too salty."

"This little Marquis Ma is even more of a monkey spirit. Not only can he sing Kunqu opera well, but he also has a good capacity for alcohol. This guy can tell which woman I like just by looking at him."

When Yu Zhu heard it, hey guy, isn't this a top hospitality talent?
In the Qing Dynasty in the eighteenth century, what was most lacking were talents?

In the officialdom of the Qing Dynasty, talents who are proficient in hospitality are scarce resources that can be met but not sought.

"Success, it's just the two of them. The two of them will each give 1 taels of silver per month, no, the public expenses for hospitality. You tell them that the silver is not enough, so I can ask you to get it. But, let me talk about the ugly things earlier. , The money is spent, but there is no gain at all, so you are fooling me for a fool." Yu Zhu made the decision on the spot, and his actions were also very generous.

However, compared with the 50 taels of silver required for a set of cannon-making equipment, spending a little bit of corrosion costs, as long as there are results, it must be worth it.

It is no exaggeration to say that compared with the miserliness of the royal families of the European powers, Yuzhu's generosity is almost jaw-dropping.

There is no way, we must quickly pass the stage of a purely agricultural country, and actively catch up with the huge wave of the first industrial revolution. No matter how much money is spent, Yuzhu will be willing.

As long as it is a matter of stealing technology, Yuzhu's work efficiency is very high.

On the third day of the agreement between him and Sun Chengyun, Bei Zihai'an and Ma Xiaohou ran to Dagukou, Tianjin, and took up their posts.

Among them, Bei Zihai'an's errand is supervised by the minister of the Ministry of Industry.As for Master Ma Xiaohou, he is the doctor of the Ministry of Industry.

Hehe, the title looks pretty bluffing, but in fact, apart from the fact that his identity is real, he is no different from a liar who runs a purse company.

The two of them are polished commanders for the time being, and for the specific hospitality business, they still need to go to Dagukou to recruit troops as needed.

However, what is absolutely unexpected is that just these two second-generation patriarchs, who are not well-known, turned out to be the super bosses who made the European royal families turn their faces.

The historical records are very clear: Ma Ying, the director of the Ninth Bureau of Military Intelligence, was a depraved generation, after being carefully trained by the Taizu, he became a great weapon, which made the European powers frightened.Alas, there is no class in education, why not!
So, ah, I am born to be useful, it depends on where it is used.

While having dinner, the porter hurried over to report that the old lady had arrived and had already arrived at the gate of the house.

Yuzhu and Xiuyun quickly put down the bowls and chopsticks in their hands, wiped their mouths, and came out to greet Li Si'er.

At the beginning, after Longke favored the new and disliked the old, after pampering the Yangzhou thin horse Liu, Yuzhu was worried that there would be a family change, so he arranged for Li Si'er to live in his Chijian Beizi Mansion.

Anyway, out of sight and upset, far away, there are much fewer conflicts.

Who would have thought that Longkodo was actually killed by the fourth child's confidant Dai Duo.

This greatly facilitated Yuzhu's control of the Nine Gates' infantry.

Originally, Yuzhu also made a series of plans, intending to secretly snatch the military power of the capital with Longkodo, but unexpectedly, all of them were unnecessary.

"My lord, mother." Xiuyun was very smart. After the man became the actual master of the Qing Dynasty, she became more respectful to Li Si'er.

Even the banner people's salutation ceremony has been changed to a squatting ceremony for a Han daughter-in-law to meet her mother-in-law.

A really smart woman takes one step and sees ten steps, like Xiuyun.

Regardless of whether Yuzhu wants to add a yellow robe or not in the future, the hundred thousand new troops who have become popular will definitely push Yuzhu up.

The reason is obvious, is it possible for the boat to go higher when the water rises?
It is determined by human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and it does not depend on anyone's will.

If Yuzhu ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, Xiaoxuanyu, the eldest son, would compete with many younger brothers for the crown prince.

Although Xiuyun is a decent Manchurian bannerman, she is not a woman from the Aixinjueluo family, but a woman from the Fucha family outside the Guanwai.

To give a more appropriate example, the Aixinjueluo family is similar to the Li family of the Tang Dynasty who can't understand it with the Xianbei people. They are all royal families.

In this sense, Xiuyun is equivalent to the origin of one of the Xianbei nobles in Guanlong.

No matter how the emperors brag, they say that Li Hu is Han, and Li Zong is also Han.However, Li Shimin's grandmother, the Dugu family, was the daughter of a dignitary of the Xianbei clan.

Therefore, Tang Gaozu Li Yuan and Tang Taizong Li Shimin must have the blood of the Xianbei people, it's just a matter of more or less.

Xiuyun secretly figured out the man's mind, he didn't seem to care much about the issue of ethnicity and blood.

Because, if Yuzhu really cared, how could Xiaoxuanyu be stuffed into the recruit camp of the new army.

Hehe, of course Yuzhu doesn't care much about bloodline issues.

Because, the 3000-year inheritance rights of the Celestial Dynasty have always been based on patrilineal blood.

Unless Xiuyun's surname is Aixinjueluo, then Xiaoxuanyu and Xiaoxuanjing will definitely lose their inheritance rights.

This is exactly the same logic as Li's second son not making Concubine Yang's son the crown prince.

Yuzhu tried his best to overthrow the country of Aixinjueluo's family, but returned the country to his son who flowed with Aixinjueluo's blood, not to mention the opposition of others, the [-] new army composed of pure Han You can't pass that level.

Because, if there is another change of dynasty, it will definitely kill people's heads.

According to the logic of the emperors and Hans, Kang Mazi, who has the blood of the Han people, has actually succeeded in usurping for them.

Isn't it absurd?
Li Si'er ignored Xiuyun, but took Yu Zhu's hand and said, "I miss 89."

When Yu Zhu heard it, when did his mother become so smart?
Li Si'er obviously came back to show off his prestige, but he said that he missed 89.

It's only natural for a mother to want to kiss her son, and no one can talk about it.

Yuzhu hurriedly explained with a smiling face: "Mother, 89 is in Dagukou, participating in training."

"I just miss him." Li Si'er acted unreasonably.

When Yu Zhu saw it, his mother must have been suffocating, so she hurriedly bowed down and said, "Come on, come tomorrow, my son will personally take your old man to Dagukou to visit 89."

"Hmph, don't fool me." Li Si'er also knew that he couldn't make trouble in front of the servants.

It's really a big mess, and it's his son Jingui's face that's been lost.

In Li Si'er's life, the first half of his life, he was lucky to be with the right man.

At that time, Long Keduo loved her like his life, and she was obedient and obedient, and she was very good at being beaten and scolded.

In the second half of his life, Li Si'er did not suffer at all, enjoying the blessings of his own son, enjoying peace of mind and justice!
Hey, it's been rumored outside that Yuzhu is a living Cao Cao, and sooner or later he will usurp the Qing Dynasty.

After Li Si'er heard the news, he couldn't help but feel happy!

If her own son became the emperor, wouldn't she be the empress dowager?
Empress Dowager Cikang looked down on Li Si'er all the way, and Li Si'er was also full of anger.

Hmph, Aunt Zhu'er, sooner or later, you will kneel before my old lady's seat, just wait and see!
