Chongzhen and I became partners

Chapter 74

"Today, I was hit hard!" Emperor Chongzhen sighed and said to Liu Weichao after the connection.

Upon hearing this, Liu Weichao asked curiously, "What's the matter? What happened?"

But he is not very strange in his heart, it has been Chongzhen for 15 years, there must be a lot of bad things, either this or that, it must be mostly bad news!

Emperor Chongzhen waited for him to ask, and quickly answered him: "I thought I already had money, but today I summoned Zhou Yuji, only to find out that to build a strong army, the money spent is like running water. With my little money , far from enough, alas!"

He was embarrassed to say that you would give me another way to make money as soon as he opened his mouth, so he used this opening sentence to express this meaning tactfully.

This also shows that people's adaptability is still very strong.Because Emperor Chongzhen himself knew that his status as emperor was of no use to Liu Weichao in another world.

As a result, he naturally changed in speaking.

Upon hearing this, Liu Weichao immediately smiled and said, "Of course, it's been said that fighting is fighting for money, and it must be a waste of money! But don't worry, with me here, there are many ways to make money."

This is what Emperor Chongzhen wanted, and he was very happy when he heard it, and said gratefully, "I knew you would help me!"

"Of course!" Liu Weichao said with a smile, "Now you help me, I help you, and the two of us help each other. I help you strengthen the country, and you help me start a business, right?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Emperor Chongzhen said happily when he heard this, "I will help you start a business, and you will help me strengthen the country!"

After finishing speaking, he asked a little embarrassedly: "What does it mean to start a business? To make money?"

"That's right!" Liu Weichao replied after listening, "Entrepreneurship is to create your own business, which is to make money!"

After a pause, he obviously thought about it, and then continued to say to Emperor Chongzhen: "Well, you can tell me in detail about the army, and I will improve it for you according to your situation, so as not to Just like last time, you can't understand what I told you, so it's unrealistic."

After finishing speaking, seeing Emperor Chongzhen's face didn't seem to be too surprised, he explained to him: "I think it should reduce all your costs, and maybe the quality can be improved. One time, you can save a lot of money."

Emperor Chongzhen made sense when he heard it, and he was also a little guilty.Like last time, I don't understand this or that. As an emperor, I still have to respect myself a bit.

The method mentioned by Liu Weichao is to improve on the basis of reality. It is definitely no problem, understandable, and if it can save a lot of money, it is equivalent to saving a lot of wasted money.The more troops you have in the future, the more money you will save.

Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen quickly explained to Liu Weichao what happened to him today, the cost of ordnance and so on.

Armor, muskets, weapons, even gunpowder, etc., Emperor Chongzhen took the trouble to explain in detail, until his mouth was a little dry.

After a long time, Emperor Chongzhen finally finished speaking, and finally asked expectantly: "What I want is excellent military equipment. Can you find a way to keep it excellent and save money?"

After Zhou Yuji's explanation to him, Emperor Chongzhen already knew the importance of excellent ordnance to the army, so he must ensure excellent ordnance.

Another thing is that in his point of view, he always feels that whether it is excellent or not and whether it is economical or not are in conflict with each other.

If someone told him that it could guarantee excellent military equipment and save money at the same time, he would definitely think that he was being fooled.

However, in Liu Weichao's era, there were too many things that surprised him. Therefore, he still had some expectations, thinking that Liu Weichao could solve the problem of superior ordnance and save money at the same time.

After listening to it, Liu Weichao immediately smiled and said: "Of course, your methods are too primitive. If you adopt automated assembly line operations or improve some measures, you can save a lot of money, and the production speed can be greatly improved. improvement!"

"What?" When Emperor Chongzhen heard it, he didn't understand it very well, because there were several concepts that he had never heard of and didn't understand, but it didn't prevent him from being able to hear the general meaning of Liu Weichao, that is, there was a way to make his side Advanced ordnance building, faster, better and cheaper!
So, with surprise, he hurriedly asked: "What is automated assembly line work?"

Emperor Chongzhen felt that this thing was a bit profound, and it was also the key.

After hearing this, Liu Weichao explained to Emperor Chongzhen: "It is an operation like running water, and each person is only responsible for a part of it. Of course, in your era, automation must not be possible, but just change this method, and the speed will definitely It will also improve. I will tell you some necessary tools, and the speed will be faster. It is just a musket, and you will have to build it in a month or two, which is really too slow!"

Speaking of this, when Emperor Chongzhen asked, he continued: "For example, many of your powers can use hydraulic power, or simply use steam power. Not only can the quality be improved, but the speed is also faster. Also, your steelmaking method , the production of gunpowder can be improved, and the cost can be reduced a lot. I don’t remember the specifics. I will check the information later and send it to you.”

Emperor Chongzhen was full of joy when he heard it, and the harvest was beyond his expectation.

But when he thought of something, he became a little worried again, and quickly asked, "Do these need money? How much? You haven't worked for several days, do you still have any money?"

He himself is afraid of being poor, and he is very concerned about money.He was also worried that Liu Weichao didn't make money, and if he didn't have money, it wouldn't be easy to help him.

Liu Weichao laughed after hearing this, and then said to Emperor Chongzhen, "Don't worry, I still have some savings, and I don't have a girlfriend, so I don't spend much money."

Speaking of this, he took advantage of the situation and said: "By the way, I just happened to want to find you too, and I found another way that you can help me make money."

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he was very happy. This kind of communication is the best, so he quickly asked Liu Weichao to tell him how to make money quickly. As long as he can help, he will definitely help.

Therefore, Liu Weichao also told Emperor Chongzhen about the jewelry.When Emperor Chongzhen heard that it was such a simple matter, he immediately agreed and promised that Liu Weichao would be satisfied.

In this way, both parties had expectations, waiting for the other party to send them what they wanted the next day.
