Chapter 975 Rising Trend
Once again, Yuzhu didn't supervise the cubs' morning run.

However, around the training ground, Yuzhu's personal soldiers were all standing there, less than 300 of them.

The number of supervisors is really too many, even if the cubs want to be lazy, they don't have the courage.

With the supervision of a few people, it is likely that no one dares to sue.

However, under the eyes of so many people, if the cubs were lazy, they would definitely not be able to hide it from Yuzhu's eyes and ears.

To make Yuzhu angry, running ten more laps is a basic operation, and a meal of rattan roast meat is also rewarded.

Among the cubs who participated in the morning run, Hong Lin's identity was extremely special.

Honglin is not only the grandson of the old emperor, but also Yuzhu's nephew.

Even if the old Shiba joined the ranks against Yu Zhu, Hong Lin could still live happily under the protection of his mother.

Of course, if Yuyan dies unfortunately, Honglin will still have a generous dowry to feed on.

However, the old eighteen took the initiative to send Honglin into the ranks of his cousins, and Honglin's future and destiny suddenly changed dramatically.

Historically, Li Ke, king of Wu, and Li Min, king of Shu, were both descended from Concubine Yang.

Concubine Yang is also the daughter of Emperor Sui Yang, so the two sons of Li Shimin lost their inheritance rights early.

In the same way, Honglin's status as the emperor's grandson is too special. In the future, it is completely impossible for him to serve as the core senior general of the new army.

However, if a certain prince who has a good relationship with Honglin inherits the Datong.

With no military power, Hong Lin can completely flourish in the ranks of civilian officials.

The old eighteen really took great pains for his son's future.

As for taking your life to protect the country of the Aixinjueluo family, heck, let the fourth and eighth have to worry about it.

Old Eighteen's biological mother was a Han woman, and this alone would prevent him from sitting on the throne.

When the old emperor chose the crown prince, from the beginning to the end, he never considered the old eighteen.

If the fourth or eighth child becomes emperor, it is impossible to reuse the eighteenth child, at best he is just an idle Baylor.

In history, when Zhang Xun was restored, he wanted to ask the former regent Zaifeng to stand up and call on the old and young of the Manchu Qing Dynasty and the filial sons and grandchildren on his behalf.

However, Zaifeng flatly rejected Zhang Xun's request.The Qing Dynasty is already dead, and there is no possibility of Xianyu turning over.

Sure enough, as Zaifeng expected, Zhang Xun was just fooled by Duan Qirui, and the restoration farce had to be hastily ended.

In today's world, those who know the current affairs are the best!
After the morning run, the cubs chatted together in small groups.

Little Iron Hammer leaned closer to Xiao Qiuming again, blinked, and said, "I'm not wrong, from now on, Ama..."

Not so early, before the three words were spoken, Xiao Qiuming covered his mouth.

Xiao Qiuming looked around vigilantly, and said softly: "If you don't care about your stinking mouth, it will definitely end badly in the future."

Little Iron Hammer, the unlucky child, under the personal guidance of his mother, Cao Chun, has read a lot of books and understands many great principles.

However, Little Fu Peng and Little Changxing are not happy to play with Little Hammer.

There is no suitable playmate at home, and the little hammer is holding back too hard, so I must find an outlet to vent, right?

"If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will ignore you. I will do what I say!" After Xiao Qiuming issued a stern warning, seeing the little hammer nodded, he let go of his hand covering his mouth.

After Little Iron Hammer calmed down, Xiao Qiuming sighed and said, "My elder brother is the eldest son, and you are also the eldest son. Why is there such a big gap? To be honest, in front of my elder brother, I didn't even dare to be too arrogant." Take a breath."

When Xuanyu was only ten years old, she followed her twenty-year-old into the palace as a companion.

Where is the palace?Where cannibalism does not spit out the bones.

Old twenty is not as smart as he imagined, and often fails to recite books, Xuanyu always gets beaten for him.

Since then, Xuanyu has developed a good habit of being taciturn and thinking more about the consequences in everything.

In short, if you can talk without opening your mouth, try not to say a word, lest disaster come out of your mouth.

Cao Chun placed high hopes on Little Iron Hammer, and hoped that his son would become a dragon.

However, Little Hammer's life in Qing Mansion has been very smooth, and he has never suffered a big loss. What he lacks is the education of setbacks.

It is no exaggeration to say that when Xuanyu stood in front of her, even if she didn't say a word, Xiao Qiuming's heart would tremble.

The aura is something that cannot be seen or touched, but it is real.

At this time, Yuzhu was waiting on the pier.

Hey, in the name of repairing the nearby ordnance, the gunsmiths invited from the UK came all the way from London with their manufacturing and repair equipment.

Yuzhu understands the mentality of Western ghosts very well, everything can be traded, and the money he can see is not enough!
The importance of the craftsmen who helped the British army make guns cannot be overemphasized.

Building is worse than buying, buying is worse than renting, heck, this bastard-like dross logic has never polluted Yuzhu's soul.

Because, Yuzhu is always sober, the British are now willing to sell and give anything.That's because the current Qing Dynasty not only has no threat to Britain, but also has huge trade interests in silk, tea and porcelain.

Now, in Yuzhu's hand, he holds three special commodities that are best-selling in the West, and he is doing a monopoly business.

However, this kind of monopoly is definitely impossible to continue.

Before long, the British will successfully transplant surviving tea trees in Sanguo.

Facts have proved that in addition to tea and silk, the monopoly of the porcelain trade has also entered the countdown.

Sooner or later, the foreign devils will be able to imitate the porcelain of the Qing Dynasty.

In order to make huge profits, commercial espionage is actually a very old profession.

In business, stealing other people's unique skills is not only not ashamed, but also extremely glorious!

If you have the ability, don't you let others steal it?

This time, Yuzhu spent a lot of money to buy a complete set of gun-making equipment from the UK. At the same time, in the name of repairs, he hired all the supporting craftsmen.

Together with the gun-making craftsmen, there is also a set of small blast furnace equipment for coke oven steelmaking, and the operating craftsmen.

British newspapers have made it very clear.

More than ten years ago, the British Abraham Darby used an improved blast furnace to successfully smelt pig iron with coke, making important technical preparations for the upcoming British industrial revolution.

Human beings have thus been brought into the Iron Age!
Steelmaking is not that easy.

It took 147 years for Western steelmaking technology to go from coke steelmaking to Bessemer converter steelmaking.

In other words, from now until 1856, the entire Western steelmaking technology was in a period of stagnation in technological progress, with only small improvements and no essential breakthroughs.

After the thick fog cleared, within the range visible to the naked eye, only a few British merchant ships appeared at the end of the horizon.

Seeing Yu Zhu rubbing his hands happily, Alice asked him a little strangely: "Darling, in my impression, you've always been the kind of man who doesn't show emotions, what's going on today?"

What did you say?
Hey, when the gun-making and steel-making equipment landed and unloaded, this is the starting point for the Chinese nation to participate in the first industrial revolution!
Historically, until 1861, the Ordnance Institute founded by Zeng Guofan in Anqing was the earliest military workshop of modern weapons in the Qing Dynasty. It was praised as: the beginning of China's modern machinery industry!
What Yuzhu did was not only 140 years earlier than Zeng shaving his head, but also the technology and equipment for making guns and steel were synchronized with that of Britain.

The fly in the ointment is that the coke blast furnace for making pig iron belongs to the top black technology of this era. The British are still very cunning and only gave a small blast furnace with a capacity of only 1100 pounds.

In conversion, it is just a small blast furnace weighing half a ton.

Although a little disappointed, Yu Zhu was still very excited.

In the Qing Dynasty, a catty was 596 grams. In conversion, a half-ton blast furnace can smelt more than 400 kilograms of pig iron.

To tell the truth, a furnace of pig iron weighs more than 400 kilograms, and Yuzhu is already very satisfied.

Yuzhu knew very well that the largest Zunhua iron-smelting furnace in the Qing Dynasty produced about 300 catties of iron in one furnace.

Moreover, this 300-jin pig iron still uses the ancient shaft furnace steelmaking technology of the Ming Dynasty.

The pig iron smelted in the ancient shaft furnace has a lot of impurities. Even if it is barely used to make guns, the thickness of the gun barrel and gun body has reached an astonishing level.

Therefore, the old emperor especially liked to cast lightweight and flexible sub-complex cannons. Although the range was very short, but with less charge, the risk of bombing was much smaller than that of heavy cannons.

After waiting for about half an hour, those foreign merchant ships finally landed smoothly.

After the gangplank boarded the ship's side, Yuzhu led Alice and stood on the edge of the gangplank.

Alice introduced her as a businessman, and Yuzhu just shook hands in a hypocritical manner.

When the craftsmen disembarked one by one, Yuzhu was all smiles, and even shook hands with ghosts, hugged each other enthusiastically, and even kissed each other on the cheek.

"Welcome, my dear brother Johnson..."

"Nice to meet you, dear engineer friend..."

"Oh, maintenance engineer of the blast furnace, come here, Alice, and treat this distinguished friend well for me."

"Hey, blower operator, it's so wonderful, it's my greatest honor to meet you..."

Yuzhu, who was proficient in English, seemed obedient and free of money, and stuffed it out all at once, lest the foreign craftsmen would not be stunned.

If you have no idea about the welcome scene, let’s put it this way, when the Soviet Union assisted in the construction of more than 100 industrial projects, all Soviet experts who came to China received the highest level of hospitality.

If you like to dance, arrange a beautiful dance partner.If you like to drink strong alcohol, you will take out your precious foreign exchange and import authentic vodka from the Soviet Union.

The spacious residence not only has heating equipment, but also has a bathtub in the bathroom.

The sofa in the living room was also bought from the Soviet Union with foreign exchange.When I went out to hang out, the guards followed me all the time.

Anyway, New China is too eager to engage in industry.Under the personal care of the teachers, the Chinese brought out the best things and warmly entertained the Soviet experts.

Well, Yuzhu entertained these British foreign engineers with enthusiasm, which is not bad.

Don't be afraid of falling behind, just be afraid of not thinking ahead!
Buy first and then copy, if you can't copy, then steal!

Early German industrial products are almost equivalent to garbage.The British promulgated a law that German products exported to the UK must be marked as Germany.

However, the Germans are ambitious, copy first, learn later, and then innovate.

As a result, Germany's industrialization level surpassed that of Britain before World War I.
