Villager of Daming

Chapter 794 Technology suppresses military considerations
The civil and military officials adjusted their emotions. At least they had seen strong winds and waves and could stabilize themselves.

Everyone knows that the cost of watches is not high, so those who are qualified to attend the banquet will have one, but it is not a tourbillon.

The one sold to the Yi people is not a tourbillon. It needs to be adjusted against the sun every one or two days.

As for them, they used the clock to adjust their watches after entering the imperial city. The clock was more accurate and was watched every day.

Three watches cost 30 guan. The fiscal revenue of the Ming Dynasty was more than 300 million guan when the People's Republic of China was first founded. The three watches added up to one-tenth.

"Your Majesty, the price of watches cannot be lowered. If you sell clocks, the clocks can be made cheaper."

The little girl spoke at this time. She and other friends were grilling skewers there. Drinking was not suitable for eating big fish and meat, especially at night.

Everyone looked at her, but no one thought that what she said was wrong. What happened to the woman?What happened to having no official position?In the future, there will be female officers specially prepared for Xiaqiu Village.

"Ling'er is talking about the navigation bell?" Zhu Yuanzhang stretched out his hand.

The little girl handed a handful of small meat skewers to Zhu Yuanzhang: "No, we use the navigation clock in the Ming Dynasty, so we will give them a floor clock that is not very accurate. It would be nice to have a clock. We can sell it cheaper."

"How much is appropriate for one?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked again.

"Five hundred guan! We can mass-produce it this year. Wouldn't it be nice to buy one for every Yi people's ship to check the time! They take it and adjust it every day.

It cannot be imitated. The spring must have a uniform texture and must be able to be rolled up.

When one day the Yi people can imitate the clock, we, the Ming Dynasty, will have so many good things that we no longer care about the clock.

At that time, they finally copied it, so we took out [-] pieces each to ensure it was cheaper than their imitation.

When they didn't have it, we relied on our technical advantages to charge a high price. When they just developed it, we immediately lowered the price, making their cost higher than the selling price. It would be meaningless for them to do it themselves.

If one day the cost of the clock they make is [-] guan, we will sell it for [-] guan to suppress them. "

The little girl instilled in Zhu Yuanzhang the technical aspects of war, which are also wars between countries. Brother Hanhan taught him.

Brother Hanhan said that some of the white people over there want to kill you when you treat them well, and some of the black people are lazy and violent.

So never think about becoming friends with them. Your kindness to them will make them think you are weak and can be bullied.

Brother Hanhan can't be wrong. The Analects of Confucius has written, "Repay evil with kindness, how to repay kindness?"Repay vengeance with straightness and repay kindness with kindness.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded: "Not bad, not bad. Our Ling'er is very thoughtful and the grilled meat skewers are also delicious. Let's make a skewer first."

As he said this, he actually took out a stick, opened his mouth and flicked off the meat on it.

The meat on the skewers is beef veal, which is deboned meat. It is tender, clean and cut into small skewers. It is good for frying or grilling. It also tastes good when stir-fried. It can even be eaten raw.

"There are also meat tendons! This one is really enjoyable to chew. The tendons are all cooked. If you want to eat it, it's best to stir-fry it now." The little girl said that she also ate a bunch.

"Give me a bunch of tendons." Wei Su, an old man, relied on his inlaid teeth to chew the tendons.

Others asked for skewers, one at a time. If there are too many of them, they will harden and lose moisture when they are left to cool and then reheated.

So there are no skewers piled up in front of everyone except around the plates. When you want to eat, you have to ask for one. Sometimes you have to wait, and they are also freshly grilled there.

Some people have drunken crabs in front of them, which have been opened, but some people don't, which means that this person cannot eat drunken crabs.

If you want to eat drunken shrimps, there are also sea shrimps raised in Xiaqiu Village. They have been processed through various procedures to ensure that they are free of parasites. The quantity is not large, and you will definitely not be able to supply it every day.

Xiaqiu Village is unwilling to provide a large amount of water chestnuts because the parasites must be killed first, which is costly and requires breeding.Generally, if Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to eat, he had to make a reservation in advance to see if the food raised in the village could be eaten.

Either let Guanglu Temple do it. Anyway, don't blame Xiaqiu Village for food problems. Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang could only eat raw food in Xiaqiu Village because he was afraid of death.

……

On the second day of the first lunar month, the ministers had breakfast at ten o'clock in the morning. They drank a little late yesterday, and their family members finished eating after seven o'clock.

Xiaqiu Village sent a small train to take them outside Xihua Gate, and they went back to their homes with the gifts given by the village, no, the gifts given by His Majesty.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not leave. He was waiting for Xiaqiu Village to continue making films. He also wanted to take photos, not to mention that the children would be happy if he stayed here.

After the New Year sacrifices, there would be nothing to do. He was willing to give himself a holiday. , or take a small train.

The chief stayed with me to eat fruits and dried fruits after the meal. After eating, he continued to sleep and skipped lunch.

The director is in good condition. Yesterday he slept in the sacrificial hall. Hanhan helped massage him. He fell asleep after being massaged. The soothing incense smelled particularly relaxing and comfortable.

When I woke up, I was shocked, why did I sleep here?Hanhan isn't here either, he's going to the lab to make film.

He went to the big bath to take a shower, then came to eat and chatted with His Majesty after the meal.

"Yichang, what kind of technology will our village focus on this year?"

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't have any specific purpose for chatting, he just talked about whatever came to mind.

“I don’t know what else there is after that, but now it’s batteries, dry batteries and accumulators. Cameras need dry batteries, and accumulators can also provide power for cameras.

However, the battery is rechargeable and is intended to be used in mines. The battery is used for lighting. When going deep into the mine, both torch lighting and kerosene lamp lighting have great limitations.

If you have a battery, you can install a light bulb. There is no need to use wires to connect it. When it runs out of power, you can take it out and charge it.

Dry batteries are currently only used in Xiaqiu Village and are expensive. If they are needed for fighting at night in the future, they will be provided to the army.

We are making a flashlight with four dry batteries. The cost will gradually decrease in the future, but the core and both ends of the dry battery can be recycled.

The technical content of flashlights is also very high. Anyway, it is not easy to make something that Ming Dynasty does not have right now. "

The director didn't know how many technologies would be released this year. He only looked at the situation in front of him, as Hanhan said.

The battery is most suitable for use in mines. It does not consume oxygen, unlike other oil lamps and kerosene lamps.

As long as a steam engine generator is placed outside the mine, everyone takes turns charging the batteries, and brings a few replacement light bulbs down, there is no need to run down the wires.

The open-pit mine is currently not in use, so everyone is digging in a circular motion.

"For lighting?" Zhu Yuanzhang had been studying and was afraid that he would not be able to keep up.

"It's a detonator. Before it was a fire detonator, but now there are electric detonators. There are many types of detonators, including chemical ones, fuse ones, and spring-mechanical ones.

The same goes for electricity. There is one more choice and one more application method. Everything invented now can be used in the military first.

Only by being selective and ensuring the military purpose can the Ming Dynasty be stable. "

The commander shook his head slightly, took out the battery, and first considered whether it could be used in the military.
