Nanming: I can build wonders

"If I can own such an advanced steelmaking plant in Ottoman, I will definitely be able to make a lot of money. This is not molten iron. This is clearly a mountain of gold and silver."

Schein the Jew didn't hear the prime minister's praise at all, his mind was all about how to make money.

Steel was expensive in the 17th century, especially good steel.

"Mr. Prime Minister, this is the steel factory with the most advanced technology in our Daming. The steel smelted here is also the best steel in our Ming Dynasty. Our military in the Ming Dynasty has always used the weapons and equipment manufactured by Yingtian No. [-] Steel Factory, because The best steel here makes the best weapons."

On the side, Liu Dian, Minister of Rites, introduced Mustafa Pasha and Shain with a smile on his face.

The other party is mainly here to buy arms and weapons this time, so naturally they want to brag about their military industry.

This Yingtian No. [-] Iron and Steel Plant can only be said to be okay in Daming, not advanced.

"This is our steam die casting machine, steam forging machine!"

Take them out of the smelting workshop to the processing workshop. Here in the processing workshop, the steam engine is roaring inside.

If Daming can show them, it means that they will definitely not be able to make it!

And the weapons that can be sold to them are too backward.

Mustafa Pasha and Schein have been watching very carefully. They saw the workers put the original parts under the die-casting machine one by one. As the die-casting machine looked lightly, a part with special arc and curvature was die-cast. complete.

In the working area of ​​the forging machine, the workers tightly clamped the steel billets one by one and placed them under the forging machine, only to hear the deep and powerful sound of the machine.

Obviously, this forging machine is very powerful, and every beating is more powerful and effective than human beating.

The steel blanks produced by this machine are of higher quality and are labor-saving and easy.

"This is our steam punching machine, drilling machine, lathe, milling machine, boring machine and other processing machines, all of which use steam power to process parts, with high speed and good quality."

"Take our Daming muskets as an example. Our muskets are all made of standard steel pipes. No matter how many times they are used, they will never explode."

Liu Dian added a sentence in his heart: Unless he offends Daming, I will customize a blast version for you.

"Additionally, barrels machined in this way have longer range and higher accuracy."

Liu Dian proudly introduced the newly processed gun barrel to the Ottoman mission.

Mustafa Pasha took the barrel of the gun carefully as if he had found a treasure, and observed it carefully.

The steel pipe barrel is very thick, but not heavy, and the finger flicks lightly, making a crisp sound.

"Yes, it's good steel!"

It is not easy for this old fritter to judge the quality of steel by sound.

"It's no wonder that Ming's firearms have excellent range, rate of fire, and accuracy. That's why."

Mustafa Pasha made a comparison in his mind. The muskets made by the Ottoman Empire were too far behind. Their barrels were made of rolled iron sheets, which were poorly sealed and easily exploded. How many musketeers.

"Mr. Prime Minister, do you want to see Daming's long-barreled cannon test fire?"

"Very happy!"

The missions soon arrived at the test range, and in front of them were the long-barreled cannons of the Ming Dynasty neatly arranged. The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty guarding the test range were conducting safety inspections on the cannons.

After waiting for a while, there was a loud noise, and the long-barreled cannon began to test fire, and the flames gushed out. The shells whizzed and flew towards the distant target, and when they hit the target, they shattered into pieces.

"This is Daming's long-barreled cannon!"

Mustafa Pasha exclaimed, this kind of firepower is simply unparalleled.

Mr. Prime Minister said he wanted to buy it very much!

The muskets and cannons are all packed and taken home!

Liu Dian showed a smile: "Mr. Prime Minister, don't worry, I still have a lot of good things in Ming Dynasty, visit more, what to buy, and count together when the time comes!"

In Yingtian Shipyard, on the large ships under construction, shipbuilders are busy.

Many warships are laying keels, and the huge keels look a little scary and hideous.

Some ships were almost completed, and the craftsmen below were like giants and ants compared to them. They were definitely first-class sailing warships.

"This is the second largest shipyard in the Ming Empire. It can produce all kinds of military and civilian ships. It can launch more than 50 ships of various types every month and more than [-] ships of various types throughout the year. .”

Standing in front of a ship about to launch, Liu Dian proudly introduced the situation of Yingtian Shipyard to Mustafa Pasha, Schein and others.

When Mustafa Pasha and Schein heard this, their eyes widened slightly again, deeply impressed by the powerful shipbuilding capabilities of Daming Shipyard.

The sum of all the shipyards and workshops in the Ottoman Empire is probably no match for a shipyard in Ming Dynasty. Even if they can manufacture such a huge ship, they may not be able to manufacture many ships in a year.

Mustafa Pasha was very self-aware.

Mustafa Pasha could clearly feel that Ming was promoting their warships.

But the Ottomans don't need a huge open-sea fleet, because they have enough galley warships to ensure hegemony in the Mediterranean Sea.

They Ottomans don't need colonization.

Therefore Mustafa Pasha didn't care much about these warships.

However, Zhu Kezang is sold in bundles. If you don’t buy Daming’s boat, Daming won’t sell you guns and cannons!

Just so rascal.

Mustafa Pasha didn't know anything about Daming's hooligans yet, and he happily visited everywhere.

As Liu Dian and others took Mustafa Pasha to visit factories, schools, ports, etc. in various parts of Daming, the more he watched, the more he felt: the gap between Daming and Ottoman is [-] million points!
Daming's steel mills, textile mills, and shipyards impressed him deeply. In each of the huge workshops, the machines roared non-stop, and the operation method of the assembly line saw a steady stream of goods being produced from the production line.

Advanced technology, terrifying efficiency, and superior quality, no matter which aspect it is, completely exploded the Ottoman Empire.

Is this really something that should exist in this era?
Mustafa Pasha couldn't help asking the Almighty God.

However, the true god did not respond to him, so he could only find the answer by himself.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, you seem to be preoccupied!"

Liu Dian looked at Mustafa Pasha, why is there something wrong with this rich man!
It can't be like this.

Daming was counting on him to buy more things!

The customer is God, and if he is in a bad mood, he will definitely buy fewer things. Liu Dian, Minister of Rites, wants to enlighten Mustafa Pasha.

In fact, I can also understand Mustafa Pasha's mood, just like what Li Hongzhang saw when he went to the beautiful country.

"Sir, there is no need to be like this, only Daming is like this in the whole world!"
