The strongest Marquis in history

Zhu Shanchang said directly: "Your Majesty, it is my negligence. Regarding the approval of cement and river sand, I will immediately investigate this matter. In the shortest possible time, complete the investigation of the matter and give an explanation to the Ministry of Industry. If the matter of cement , can play a big role, I will implement it immediately."

Wang Qi waved his hands and said, "You and Mo Liu, go to the Academy of Science and Technology to understand the situation, and you will know that it's not that complicated."

"Yes!"

Zhu Shanchang answered immediately.

Wang Qi thought for a while, and said: "Forget it, I will go with you personally. By the way, I will go to the Academy of Science and Technology, take a look at the train, and then take a look at the people who developed the train, and express my condolences to all the personnel."

Zhu Shanchang replied again, and went to the Academy of Science and Technology together with Wang Qi and Mo Liu.

The location of the Institute of Science and Technology is also in the direction of Zhongnan Mountain.

The distance is still remote.

It didn't take long for a group of people to ride on horseback. They arrived at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain and arrived at the separate Academy of Science and Technology.

Mo Liu is a frequent visitor to the Academy of Science and Technology, familiar with the situation in the Academy of Science and Technology, and took Wang Qi straight to the cement display area in the Academy of Science and Technology.The cement manufacturing workshop is not in the Academy of Science and Technology, but the finished products of cement and river sand can be found in the Academy of Science and Technology.

When the group arrived, Mo Liu called the craftsman in charge and made arrangements quickly.

In a short time, they brought cement, river sand, and steel rods, and then began to mix the cement directly, and demonstrated it in front of Zhu Shanchang and Wang Qi.

After Mo Liu finished the demonstration, he said, "Your Majesty, Zhu Shoufu, this is the specific manufacturing process. Because it needs to be hardened, it will take a day or two, and the hardening process cannot be seen for the time being. But here, there is a separate finished product, you follow me .”

Mo Liu led Wang Qi and Zhu Shanchang to the place where the cement slabs were, he pointed to the cement slabs on the ground, and said, "There are two types here, one is with steel bars added, and the other is without steel bars. You can give it a try for its sturdiness."

"Come here, bring a knife."

Mo Liu ordered directly.

The soldier brought the saber and handed it to Zhu Shanchang.

Zhu Shan said: "Your Majesty, come here."

Wang Qi shook his head and said: "I know the hardness of cement, so there is no need to try it. Now, I want you to experience it and know the condition of the cement. Use all your strength and try it."

Zhu Shanchang swung his saber and cut it off.

clang! !

The blade hit the stone slab, although a little bit of stone chips were chopped off, leaving a mark, but the stone slab made of cement is not bad at all.

So much so that the knife couldn't cut it.

Zhu Shanchang changed another piece, which added steel bars.The same slashing left only one mark.Compared with the previous stone slab, there is not much difference, they are all similar.

Zhu Shan said: "Your Majesty, judging from the minister's slashing, I feel that there is not much difference."

"you are wrong!"

Wang Qi shook his head.

Zhu Shan said: "What does Your Majesty mean?"

Wang Qi said: "This stone slab, after adding steel bars, is so hard that it is not easy to blow up even if it is bombed with shells. However, if it is not added with steel bars, it will be less stable. The shells may break after repeated bombing. blow up."

"This cement, in particular, can be poured for fortifications, or it can be applied on the city wall alone. As long as it is applied on the city wall or on the ground, it will make the painted surface stronger and more reliable."

"This is what cement is for."

"Except for building bridges and paving roads, they can all be used. The poured stone slabs are the roads. Just think about it, if the official roads in the world are turned into such cement and stone roads, even if it rains and snows, it will Does it matter?"

"It won't have any effect."

"When the world sees the official road, the speed of traveling is faster and the time is further shortened. The use of trains must require cement. Qi also needs such cement roads, and they are all items that benefit the country and the people. "

Zhu Shanchang is extremely smart and knowledgeable.After thinking about it in his heart, he immediately understood the benefits.

Before that, he just didn't understand.

Now if you think about it clearly, everything is simple.Once the Tianxia Avenue is built, it will be of great help to the entire Qi State.

Even, this is more of a business.

Everyone in the world needs this cement, so it is bound to make countless money.

After Zhu Shanchang thought it through in his mind, he solemnly said: "Your Majesty, once cement is popularized, it will not only build bridges and pave roads to benefit the people, but also earn countless money."

"This matter, I will arrange it separately. Strengthening the fiscal revenue of the imperial court will also strengthen the influence of the Ministry of Transport. The Ministry of Transport is responsible for the department in charge of cement. After all, the Ministry of Transport is now, You need a lot of income to support it.”

There was a look of approval in Wang Qi's eyes, and he said, "Yes, let's arrange it like this."

"The minister obeys the order!"

Zhu Shanchang answered immediately.

Wang Qi nodded and said: "For specific matters, you arrange someone to connect with Mo Qing and handle the matter well. Whether it is a train or cement, you must advance as soon as possible. However, you must also consider the stability of the matter, and don't be impatient , On the contrary, he did something bad with good intentions.”

Zhu Shan said: "I would like to follow your Majesty's instructions."

Wang Qi nodded to Mo Liu again, and the group headed towards the area where the trains and rails were made.When they arrived at the area where it was manufactured, they saw the long rails, the locomotive, and even one or two carriages, all of which were well-made.

Wang Qi made a special visit, and returned to a separate conference room in the Academy of Science and Technology after watching it once.

Wang Qi looked at Mo Liu and ordered: "Go and call all the researchers, I want to speak."

"Yes!"

Mo Liu immediately made arrangements.

Zhu Shanchang stood aside and watched quietly. After all, at the moment, everything was arranged by Wang Qi.

It depends on what Wang Qi says.

Chapter 961

Not long after, all the people from the Academy of Science and Technology gathered.

The huge meeting room is enough to accommodate 600 people, but these people poured in, and all the seats were filled. Even the alleys in the meeting room were full of people, at least there were more than a thousand people.

This is the size of the Academy of Sciences today.

Its scale is already extremely huge, accommodating countless people to work here.Even the technology of the entire Qi State, and the future development of the entire Qi State, were all born here.

Rifle ammunition, as well as cement, river sand, trains, rails, and telescopes, all came from the Academy of Science and Technology.These craftsmen have followed the direction given by Wang Qi, the road has become wider and wider, and they have even begun to open up the future.

Wang Qi looked at so many people with a bright smile on his face.

There are more talents, which is a good thing.

The more talents, the better.

Many people present even had dust on their bodies, and even their bodies were black.After all, many of these talents are craftsmen in this era, and their status is not elevated.That is to say, Wang Qi has made adjustments. These people all have certain official titles on them, and besides that, the treatment is also extremely generous.

Wang Qi withdrew his gaze and waited quietly. After a while, he calmed down a little bit.

Everyone, no more words.

Everyone, keep silent.

Even so, everyone present was very excited, all excited.These craftsmen, at any time, have a worse status than officials or even businessmen.

Because of Wang Qi, they are today.

Because of Wang Qi, they were able to support their families and live a stable life.In their identities, it would be impossible for them to want Wang Qi in this life, but now they actually saw it.

This is the heart of all craftsmen, and they are happy for it.

Wang Qi breathed a sigh of relief and shouted: "This is the first time for me to gather all the people from the Academy of Science and Technology together. I want to say that I am late, so I should have come to visit you earlier."

Whoa! !

In the hall, there was a lot of discussion.

As soon as Wang Qi opened his mouth, he showed respect to them.

One by one, they became even more excited.

It's just that Wang Qi was still talking, so many people booed, and the surrounding became quiet.

All voices disappeared.

Wang Qi continued: "In today's Qi State, many people outside like to talk about scholars, farmers, industry, and merchants, and make these four different backgrounds into a ranking order. And all of you also regard yourself as craftsmen , and bring it among the craftsmen."

"But in my opinion, whether it is a scholar, a farmer, a craftsman or a businessman, they are all the same, and they are all an indispensable part of our country."

"Especially you, all of you, although you are craftsmen, you have already transcended this identity."

"You guys are technical talents."

"Without the rifle bullets you developed, without the shells and mortars you developed, without the telescopes and warships you developed, our country of Qi would fall behind everywhere and be bullied."

"Without the trains you developed and the cement you developed, the lives of the people in the world would not improve step by step. Because of your research and development, and because of your dedication, Qi is getting better in every aspect. "

"You people are indispensable scientific and technological talents in Qi."

Wang Qi's voice was thick and resonant.

Even in this voice, he added a little internal force, so that the voice came out clearly.Even in the conference room, which accommodates more than a thousand people, everyone can still hear clearly.

All the craftsmen were even more excited when they heard Wang Qi's words.

They get respect.

This is the respect from the Great Qi Emperor Wang Qi, and many people's hearts are warm.The allegiance to Wang Qi in their hearts is like iron and stone, indestructible.

Wang Qi's eyes were clear, and he continued: "All of you, I will use a more detailed name to characterize your identities, that is, scientists. What you study is science, and you have invented items that never existed, and changed The whole Daqi."

"Because of you, people's travel will become easier."

"Because of you, the strength of the Qi State will continue to improve. It can resist the invading foreign enemies, make the defense of the Qi State more stable, and reduce the casualties of soldiers on the battlefield."

"Because of you, Qi State is where it is today."

"In front of you today, I just want to express such a point of view. All of you are the most important people. Don't belittle yourself because of your background."

Wang Qi continued: "Of course, just talking about these things is too general, without any practical matters. Speaking of which, I am here today in front of you, in front of the cabinet chief assistant Zhu Shanchang, and in front of Minister Mo Liu of the Ministry of Industry. Face to face, explain clearly."

"Everyone in the Academy of Science and Technology, the scattered official titles you currently have are very messy and unsystematic. So now, the imperial court will set up a separate official position system exclusively for you."

"From low to high, starting with the apprentice at the bottom, and going up one level at a time, until the top is a scientist."

"Everyone is treated accordingly and has a corresponding identity."

"Not only that, but you have made great contributions to the imperial court. The imperial court will not only give material rewards, but also spiritual rewards and many rewards."

"The imperial court will never forget your sacrifices."

"One by one, you are hiding here in Zhongnan Mountain, hiding your names, not showing up in front of the world, and having no prominent identities. But your dedication will be remembered by everyone."

Wang Qi's voice became more passionate.

He came across from later generations and knew that scholars are very important to the country, which is the basis for the imperial court to manage the place.But these professional craftsmen and scientific researchers are the foundation of Qi's progress.

With these people, Qi can continue to move forward.

In fact, most of the talents in the entire Qi State gathered in the imperial court and in the officialdom during this era.However, people in the officialdom rarely study these things.

It is these craftsmen who can settle down to do research, manufacture various equipment, and promote social development.

Wang Qi said loudly: "I have always had a point of view, that is, talents are the foundation of a long-term foundation. The talents here are not only those who govern the country, but also professional talents like you. Therefore, I hope that you will put your own research Direction, really study it down, work hard to study it, and study it thoroughly.”

"I will live up to His Majesty's high expectations."

Among the crowd, a craftsman shouted.

"I will live up to His Majesty's high expectations."

"I will live up to His Majesty's high expectations."

Each craftsman shouted loudly.

These people's hearts were already excited, and they shouted.What Wang Qi said was not only to give them their backgrounds, but also to give them their identities, and even more to give them more recognition.

This is what everyone is excited about.

Wang Qi continued to talk eloquently, and again, he spoke alone for almost two quarters of an hour.After Wang Qi finished speaking, he finally said: "If you have any problems or difficulties, you can stand up and speak directly. I am here today, and I will solve it for you personally."

"Your Majesty, we don't have any problems. We have food, enough salary, and our family lives well, which is already very good."

In the crowd, someone spoke again.

Compared with ordinary people, the craftsmen in the Academy of Science and Technology all have high salaries.So each family is still doing well, and the rest of them are talking one after another, saying that life is very good now, and there is no problem at all.
