This is the office space of the entire scientific research institute, but there are the fewest people on weekdays, because basically except for a few logistics and clerical staff, everyone else is on their own experimental project side, and there are no people here at all.
But I have to say that this is indeed a good place for conversation.
Zhang Nuo sat down on the main seat without the slightest politeness, looked at the still ignorant Xu Bowen and asked directly,
"Old Xu, what are your thoughts on the follow-up development of the steam engine?"
Xu Bowen was still there wondering why His Royal Highness King Qin casually said something about rewarding money and ignored it, and dared to wait here to discuss it alone.
However, he may not be interested in talking about other things for the time being, but when talking about steam engines, he has too many thoughts.
During this period of time, he was not only developing and manufacturing Datang's first steam engine, but also constantly thinking about how to use and improve this machine. Therefore, when Zhang Nuo asked this question, he was really surprised. It's scratching the itch.
"Your Highness, in the eyes of my subordinates, this steam engine must be my Great Tang's artifact. Whether it is mining or spinning, pumping or casting, as long as it needs power, the steam engine can be used!"
"So Xiaguan believes that the follow-up research and development should consider different sizes and powers. After all, different scenarios have different requirements!"
"In addition, the train officer, whom His Highness has been obsessed with before, plans to organize a group of people to tackle the problem. After all, that is what His Highness wants most!"
"And I also thought about it, as long as the train is really developed, it will undoubtedly be a real improvement for me, Datang, and it will be an extremely terrifying improvement!"
Zhang Nuo smiled and nodded. After all, he is a person who has studied and worked as an official. At least his vision is completely different from that of ordinary craftsmen.
"Old Xu, I really appreciate your attitude. You can still have your own thinking while ensuring research and development. This is very good. If you keep it like this, you will have a seat in the Ministry of Industry in the future!"
Chapter 534 The Charm of Industry
On the surface, what Zhang Nuo said to Xu Bowen seemed to be just a good wish, but if these words came from him, it would be a bit scary.
Although Zhang Nuo has never appeared in the court, let alone speak out, no one will doubt that Zhang Nuo is in the court, no matter whether it is a prime minister who is as honorable as the grandson Wuji, an uncle of the state, or a low-level official who only knows Zhang Nuo's name. The influence of the court.
This is also the reason why many people want to have a relationship with Zhang Nuo one after another.
But Zhang Nuo had never said anything like this to anyone, and he still looked like a salted fish. He stayed in his own Lantian City all day and had no interest in Chang'an.
However, I have to say that even though Zhang Nuo has never spoken, everyone admits that as long as this Highness speaks, his Majesty and the court will give face to ordinary positions and so on, and basically as long as the position is not particularly excessive, Absolutely no problem.
Because Zhang Nuo's influence is really too great, not to mention anything else, just to say one thing, at present almost all the top families in Datang are following Zhang Nuo to make money, and the favor in it has become great.
To put it bluntly, some families may not necessarily give face to the emperor Li Shimin, but they will definitely give face to Zhang Nuo.
Of course, it cannot be said that Zhang Nuo is more famous than Li Shimin, but because Zhang Nuo has never asked for favors, many families feel that they owe Zhang Nuo favors and do not know how to repay them.
So once Zhang Nuo really asks for something, as long as it doesn't conflict with everyone's interests too much, everyone will probably nod in agreement.
As a former official of the Ministry of Industry and now a member of Zhang Nuo's command, Xu Bowen is undoubtedly very, very aware of this matter.
Therefore, when Xu Bowen heard Zhang Nuo's seemingly random promise, his eyes almost lit up. Although he quit the Ministry of Industry and went to Zhang Nuo's side to become a craftsman leader, that doesn't mean he didn't want to Be an official.
These days, who doesn't want to ascend the pavilion to pay homage to the prime minister?
The reason why he left the Ministry of Industry before was purely because he was a low-level official. It would not be a pity to give up. Anyway, he can make achievements in Blue Sky City to improve his grade.
Just because he doesn't care about his previous official position doesn't mean he doesn't like the minister of the Ministry of Industry or Shangshu. If you know who Zhang Nuo is, he is His Royal Highness the King of Qin who is under one person and above tens of thousands.
Could it be that if His Royal Highness King Qin recommends someone to work in the Ministry of Industry, he will be just a low-level official in the end?
Thinking of this, Xu Bowen almost instantly felt that the hard work of the previous two months was all worth it. This is really a double gain of fame and fortune.
However, he did not forget His Highness's instruction just now, research and development and thinking, only by maintaining these two at the same time can he be recommended by His Highness.
Xu Bowen is not a pure craftsman who is dedicated to technology, nor is he a traditional official who knows nothing. He knows his own advantages and what His Highness values him.
It is precisely because he has the advantages of both sides that he can stand out. Of course, being able to lead people to make achievements in the steam engine project is also one of his major achievements.
And Zhang Nuo's exhortation also understands that if he continues to maintain these advantages, then the future Ministry of Industry will definitely have a seat for him, and the highest seats.
But if these advantages are lost, then I'm sorry, Zhang Nuo may not be very good at admiring people, but he is very good at manipulating people.
Both Zhang Nuo and Xu Bowen tacitly did not bring up the matter just now, but started a heated discussion on the steam engine project.
"Your Highness, this steam engine officer thinks that the textile company is the most needed, and they should order a lot!"
"You are right about this. For them, the one that can drive the spinning machine quickly and stably is a good machine. After all, manpower is always unstable, but besides textile companies, there are other industries that can also use it!"
"Uh, Your Highness, I feel that the foundry industry should like this thing the most. Having a steam engine is like having a blacksmith with infinite strength and tirelessness!"
"That's true. You can even adjust your thinking. Since you can let the machine drive the hammer, can you increase the power and drive a bigger hammer to smash out a lot of armor with one hammer?" What about the film?"
"Oh, so it can still be like this. Then, Your Highness, can we get some equipment to make it convenient for our scientific research institute? After all, our side is the place that really benefits Datang!"
"Of course, if the steam engine is running all the time, can it be connected to a saw blade so that it can quickly cut wood, or connected to a drill bit so that it can easily punch holes in wood products?"
"Yes, by extension, as long as the saw blade is strong enough or the drill bit is hard enough, we can also directly cut or drill holes in metal!"
"Well, it seems that you are really enlightened, Old Xu. This is indeed true, but this requires the smelting research department to work hard to see if they can come up with some new metal formulas!"
"That's it, Your Highness, can we get one of our machines for the smelting department?"
"You can have this. If you think about it, if there is a steam engine, it can be used as the power of the crane, and it can also pull the ore, let alone the power of the blower. There are too many places that can be used!"
"Your Highness, I suddenly feel that with the appearance of this steam engine, it seems that all walks of life are changing!"
Zhang Nuo looked at Xu Bowen, who had been discussing with him for a long time, fell into a rare sigh, and did not speak, poured himself a cup of tea and drank slowly.
Zhang Nuo naturally understood the charm of the steam engine.
For a person who has never seen the charm of industrialization, especially the head craftsman who made the steam engine out by himself, the charm brought by the collision of steel is even more moving.
