Since ancient times, the reason why the dynasties and different generations stipulated that officials are not allowed to do business is because officials have great rights. If they are involved in business, the days of ordinary businessmen will not be able to pass, which will cause very serious unfair competition. Ordinary businessmen have no way to compete with officials.

However, even with such regulations, it will not solve the problem of unfair competition. After all, on the surface does not work, it can be carried out in secret. Officials ca n’t operate business themselves, but they can operate behind the scenes, allowing people under their control to run business. , Can also earn a lot of money.

In addition, there are many businessmen who will turn to one or more bureaucrats, and part of the money they earn will honor these bureaucrats, so as to obtain the help of these bureaucrats, and then obtain the opportunity of unfair competition.

That is to say, since ancient times, the competition of business is almost unfair. There is a term called Red Top Merchant, which is about the collusion between officials and business. Any small businessman who wants to be the biggest businessman, no big official does The backing is absolutely impossible. Only with the support of the big officials can you grow into a big businessman on the rich side.

In short, no matter what era, fairness absolutely does not exist, it will always exist impossible, the bottom 100 surnames and small businessmen can always only pick up what others have left, and it is too difficult to counterattack.

Even the battery invented by Li An must be handed over to the aristocracy, not the surname 100. After all, ordinary 100 surnames are incapable of running this business, only the powerful have such abilities. The powerful class will fall into a virtuous circle, and the poor people will only fall into a vicious circle. This is a problem that cannot be solved in any era.

If several hundred ordinary old 100 surnames are united to join the workshop, one person must be nominated to manage, and this person nominated by everyone will soon become a new noble, that is, the noble class, and the rest The people will also be poor people. If you do n’t recommend the manager, everyone will work consciously and divide the money equally, then they will inevitably be separated because of chaos in management, and ultimately they will do nothing.

Although this fact is cruel, it is the reality. In many cases, in order to create wealth most efficiently, a small number of people must manage it, and most people work hard, such efficiency is the highest, and such consequences That is, a small number of people can become nobles, and most people can only be the poorest people, and the poor people who can only feed themselves.

Therefore, instead of recreating a noble, it is better to let the existing nobility run this relatively monopolistic industry. In this way, the number of nobles is also less, and the exploitation of the old 100 people is naturally one point less.

Because all officials are aware of such things, naturally, no one will object to the officials doing business in private, and the understood is useless. The officials all give business to someone who can control it. Reasonably, even if it is found, it cannot be proved that this is the official. Unless this person falls, he will find a lot of property when copying the house.

“The flashlight is very practical, and the battery is a consumable, so there is no need to worry about future sales.”

“Yes, yes, it is estimated that the number of batteries ordered by Imperial Court will not be a small number!”

“Yes! Chang’an City is full of lights at night, but there are also horns without light. There is no light in the nearby countryside. The demand for flashlights is very strong. Going out with a flashlight is more practical than torch.”

“Why, are you all interested?”

“Dare not dare, such a good business, where can it be our turn.”

“There is nothing to miss, Minister Li said, to choose the 3 highest bidders, the 3 sharers, as long as the top 3, there is a chance.”

“What 3 companies to share, watch it! Sooner or later they will become one, anyway, I dare not count on it, so as not to cause trouble to the upper body.”

After the ministers went down, not at all hurried back, but got together and chatted.

Li An went to the Research & Development Center, where there are more assembled flashlights, he will put these in the most prosperous places in Chang’an City, and build a large shed in these places that can be completely shaded, so the flashlight is You can enjoy the performance in it, and you can perform it day and night.

“Minister Li, you have to choose ten locations. Do you want so many!”

“Every place needs to build a blackout shed, and at least 5 6 people are required to maintain order and take care of the items. It is too much!”

“There are too many people in the capital, and there are not a few places. How can more people understand this flashlight? There are not many spots.”

Several subordinates said.

Li An presents the flashlight of the new Research & Development in ten points, which is absolutely reasonable. It is to let more people in Beijing understand the new technology of flashlight. Although it is just a small daily necessities, it is very useful. It is necessary to promote.

The east and west cities have a relatively large number of people, each with two points, Vermilion Bird Avenue also has two points, and the remaining four are scattered in the rest of the capital.

The area of ​​the ten-point shading tent is not small, and there is no problem with accommodating 3 people. It can maximize the understanding of the daily life of the flashlight, so that more people can participate in the competition, but also for the later stage. , Such products can enter the market and increase sales of batteries and flashlights.

In order to ensure the safety of each point, Li An used 150 people, and each point had 5 people, responsible for setting up a blackout tent. Then, inside the tent, the flashlight and the light of the ordinary torch were performed to let the visitors come. Let’s take a look at the old 100 surname, how great is the advantage of this flashlight.

The construction of shading tents is very simple, that is, first build a shelf with wood, and then cover the shading cloth on the outside, and the so-called shading cloth is actually a cloth woven with a mixture of black and white threads, which can effectively block The passage of all light reflects and absorbs all light.

From the appearance, the shading cloth is white, the two faces are white, but the internal color is black, the reflective effect of white is the best, and black has the best light absorption and shading effect. The color is mixed to make the shading cloth, which can block the strong light to pass through to the maximum, so as to play the role of shading. Therefore, for the most efficient shading, the shading cloth chooses to mix the black and white threads to weave.

Ten shading points were completed quickly, and each point was already equipped with flashlights, torch, lanterns and other lighting items, and was ready to be compared to let the old 100 people take a look at the advantages of flashlights.

Since ancient times, the old 100 surnames of China are the favorite ones to watch the lively. Where there is lively to see, go to watch the lively, so, after a shaded shed is built, a lot of old 100 surnames have gathered around, there are businessmen There are farmers, there are noble housekeepers, and there are many foreigners.

However, the shed can only accommodate up to 3 people, so you must line up to watch the bustling, and go in batches to watch the bustling.

This kind of scene is a bit confusing, so Li An will never go in person, just leave it to his staff to complete it, and Li An stays in the Research & Development Center to continue the good things that Research & Development Great Tang needs .

I want to work out a variety of use items. The most important thing is that there are two kinds of materials and machinery. There is no suitable material. Everything is impossible to talk about. Only give you wood and soil. What can you research, only research Only materials with various properties can promote the further growth of research. In addition to materials, machinery is also extremely important. Without the help of machinery, even if you are given items such as iron, copper, alloy, etc. What a terrible thing, or very low efficiency, has pushed up labor costs and is not conducive to promoting it to 2 1000 households.

Therefore, two kinds of machinery and materials are very important. Of course, chemical and biological engineering are also very important, but they are not related to the research of various items. They have a major role in the rest. Chemical technology can be used to The manufacture of weapons, such as black gunpowder, is caused by the chemical reaction of three substances. In the future, if you want to make more powerful explosives, you also need a lot of knowledge in chemistry.

Biology can be used to study medicine, so as to control the spread of the epidemic when necessary, and it can treat many major diseases that plague people, so that the 100 people can live better and more at ease.

Li An does n’t have much energy to do biology now, and it ’s only a part of chemistry. After all, the production of batteries, the manufacture of black powder, etc., these all are in the field of chemistry. If you do n’t engage in chemical engineering, many Nothing can be made, such as a battery, and incidentally, it will also affect the invention of Wireless Electronics and the phone, so chemistry still needs to be done.

Through so many years of hard work, and the cooperation of several 100000 Research & Development talents, Li An at this time has developed a large number of materials, which are much more than the materials before the Great Tang, whether it is new building materials, It is still mechanical and metallic materials, which are many, many times more than before, and the success of some materials, Research & Development, has an important role in promoting the subsequent research.

For example, if Research & Development without special metals succeeds, the artillery barrel cannot be made thinner, and a too heavy artillery will inevitably limit its mobility and continuous combat capability.

There are also many mechanical parts that are easy to wear. If you use ordinary pure metals, they will be easily worn away. If you use advanced alloys and new materials that have been quenched at high temperatures, the wear resistance will be great. Improve, so that these parts are not so easy to wear, so that they can be used for a longer time.

A variety of new materials are constantly being researched, and the research and development of new materials is essential for subsequent research. For example, guns have very high weight requirements. If they are bulky, it is difficult to use them alone. .

Among all materials, only the strength and toughness of metal can meet strong friction. Therefore, the barrel must be made of metal. Metal materials are relatively bulky. The weight will exceed the maximum standard that can be loaded by a single person, so that the guns cannot be used normally, and it is not as cost-effective as making guns.

The introduction of new, more robust and resilient materials can solve this problem well, allowing the guns to be made thinner, which is convenient for soldiers to carry, so as to reflect the portability and lethality of the guns.

Li An ’s minimum requirement for a rifle cannot exceed 20 pounds. Guns that exceed this weight, plus the weight of a large number of bullets, will cause too much burden to the soldiers, and within 1 pounds is a relatively high requirement, which is also Li An. The direction of efforts.

For pistols, Li An ’s requirement is within 5 pounds. If it exceeds this weight, it is estimated that no hand can be lifted. So, how can it be used normally? Therefore, it must be portable. At around 2 pounds, the rifle is only 5-6 pounds to more than 1 pounds. Unless it is a continuous shot machine gun, it will be slightly bulkier to meet the requirements of continuous shooting.

The guns that Li An 1st Step is aiming at are the rifles that are already very advanced in performance. As for the backward matchlock and flintlock guns, they go directly around. Otherwise, the guys who make them are not as good as bows and arrows.

Research & Development of most of the components has achieved good results. The only thing that makes Li An dissatisfied is the research of the barrel and the firing pin.

If the material of the barrel is unqualified, it will cause the weight of the barrel to be too large, which will increase the weight of the overall gun and make the gun lose its portability. However, the demand for the material is relatively high, and the firing pin with poor material is not used a few times. There will be wear and tear, which will not normally impact the next bullet, making the entire gun unusable, or the need to replace the firing pin frequently, causing great pressure on the logistics.

However, these two kinds of research are in progress, I believe that breakthrough will be achieved soon, and as long as these two kinds of Research & Development are completed, the formidable power is strong, and the guns with higher reliability can be born.

This technology was quietly researched and developed by Li An, not at all told Emperor and the ministers, and their main energy was attracted by the Thousands of Miles Sound Transmission Project, so they did not notice the research of these small parts of the barrel & Development, even if the people at the Imperial Court came to inspect and saw the barrel and the firing pin, they couldn’t figure out what it was for. Maybe they thought they were parts on the machine?

Li An does n’t mean to hide anything. It ’s just that the Great Tang dynasty has already made the surrounding forces tremble. It seems that there is no need for Research & Development ’s more advanced weapons, that is, whether there is a gun. This kind of weapon is not at all a fundamental change for the power of the Great Tang Empire. The strongest is still the strongest, so Li An does n’t want to ask for help for the time being. Moreover, the cost of guns is much more expensive than swords. The bullets consumed all the metal materials that Great Tang badly needed.
