At noon, Lin Feng's carriage, escorted by Bai Shan and a group of Tianbingwei, slowly drove into Lijiazhuang.

"Your Majesty, we are now at Lijiazhuang. Are you going to the laboratory? Or the steam engine research and development plant?"

Bai Shan's voice came, and Lin Feng immediately said: "General Bai, what time is it now?"

"Your Highness, it's just past noon."

Lin Feng was a little hungry, so he immediately said, "Let's go to the cafeteria to eat first!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

During the battle of South Vietnam, although Bai Shan was not granted a title, his military rank was promoted from colonel to major general, and he was fully responsible for the security of Lin Feng and Prince Xian's mansion.

Every factory in Lijiazhuang has its own canteen. The canteen that Lin Feng mentioned is naturally the canteen in the steam engine research and development plant.

Soon, the carriage arrived at the entrance of the cafeteria. As soon as Lin Feng got off the carriage, Zhao Yong, Gu Chaoqun, and Li Bin led a group of technicians to greet him and bowed respectfully, "We greet the factory director! Congratulations on your victorious return!"

Lin Feng's face lit up, and he quickly raised his hand, "No need to be polite, everyone. I'm sure everyone is hungry after working all morning. Let's go eat together!"

"Thank you, director!"

There are a total of 38 technicians in the steam engine research and development plant, among whom Zhao Yong, Gu Chaoqun and Li Bin are senior technicians, and the remaining 35 are all intermediate technicians.

Lin Feng wants to develop industry in Dayan, so naturally the more technicians the better. The reason why he wants to set up a technician college is to train more technicians through the college.

The food standard in the steam engine research and development plant was two meat dishes and two vegetable dishes with rice. Lin Feng was the first to come forward to get the meal, and then he sat at the table and started eating.

Every time Lin Feng goes to the cafeteria to eat, he feels like he is back in college. Although the food here is not very delicious, Lin Feng enjoys this feeling very much.

After a hearty meal, Lin Feng slowly put down his chopsticks. Bai Shan quickly placed the teacup in front of Lin Feng, "Your Majesty, have some tea."

Lin Feng nodded, picked up the teacup and started drinking.

"General Bai, are you full so soon?"

Bai Shan quickly cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I will eat quickly."

Lin Feng nodded, "Then send someone to call all the deputy factory directors of the industrial park here. This factory director has something important to announce."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Bai Shan cupped his hands, turned around and left quickly...

A quarter of an hour later, all the deputy directors of the industrial park and thirty-eight technicians from the steam engine research and development plant gathered in the cafeteria.

Lin Feng stood up and looked at everyone. "Everyone, I asked you to come here because I have good news to tell you. I am ordered by His Majesty to establish a technician college in Lijiazhuang Industrial Park."

"The Technician College, as the name implies, is a college for training technicians. As everyone knows, His Majesty ordered me to develop a steam engine, but the development of a steam engine is very complicated and requires a large number of technicians to participate in the development."

"Once the steam engine is successfully developed, we will then have to build trains and production plants powered by steam engines, which will require a large number of technicians."

"The trainees for the Technician College will be selected from various factories. Each factory will have 50 places. When the deputy factory directors return, they must carefully select the candidates and submit the list within two days."

"Remember, only those workers who are active and perform well in their work are eligible to study at the Technical College."

All the deputy factory directors stood up and saluted, "Don't worry, Director. We will make sure to conduct a strict screening."

Lin Feng nodded, "Okay, today's meeting ends here, let's adjourn!"

After lunch it was lunch break time. Lin Feng walked out of the cafeteria and went directly to his own laboratory.

Seeing the bottles and jars filled with saltpeter, sulfur, and charcoal on the laboratory table, Lin Feng suddenly had an idea and thought of fireworks. It would be perfect if he could set off fireworks on the wedding night of May 1st.

Lin Feng began to recall how to make fireworks. The explosion and combustion components of fireworks are all ready-made. Although Lin Feng has not yet been able to obtain luminous colorants such as aluminum, magnesium, titanium, and zirconium, Lin Feng still wants to make some primitive fireworks.

Just do it if you want to. Lin Feng immediately started making fireworks in the laboratory...

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the one-hour lunch break was over. Lin Feng left the laboratory on time and came to the steam engine research and development plant.

As soon as Lin Feng entered the factory, Zhao Yong, Gu Chaoqun, and Li Bin, along with a group of technicians, stepped forward and bowed, "We greet the factory director!"

Lin Feng raised his hand quickly, "Technicians, no need to be polite, just go back to your work!"

"Yes, factory director!"

The technicians began to work on their own things, and the whole factory suddenly became lively.

"Technician Zhao, what is the current status of the steam engine development? When can we make a complete steam engine?"

Zhao Yong quickly cupped his hands and said, "Director, the research and development of the firebox, boiler, cylinder, and piston has been completed, and the research and development of the connecting rod, crankshaft, and steam turbine has just begun. It will take about a year to produce a complete steam engine."

The development progress is similar to what Lin Feng expected. The conditions in Dayan are really too bad. There is nothing available and all tools have to be made improvisationally. The current progress is already very good.

Lin Feng nodded, "Your Majesty is very much looking forward to the steam engine. Next, the factory director will work with you to develop it and strive to make the steam engine as soon as possible."

Zhao Yong's face lit up with joy. "That's great. With you here, we have absolute confidence that we can succeed in developing the product ahead of schedule."

Afterwards, Lin Feng personally designed the various small components of the connecting rod, discussed experiments with the technicians, and the research and development work officially began...

Time flies so fast, and one day passes in the blink of an eye.

In the evening, Lin Feng's carriage drove into Prince Xian's Palace under the escort of Bai Shan and a group of Tianbingwei. As soon as he got off the carriage, he met Luo Wanting and Xia Susu.

Seeing Lin Feng, the two girls' faces lit up with joy, and they all stepped forward and bowed politely, "Wanting Susu greets brother!"

Lin Feng quickly raised his hand, "Wanting Susu, no need to be polite, you two are waiting for me here, but is there anything?"

Luo Wanting smiled sweetly, "Brother, I heard from my sister-in-law that His Majesty ordered you to take a concubine. Is this true?"

Lin Feng nodded, "That's true, but I haven't agreed yet."

Luo Wanting's eyes rolled, "Brother, His Majesty's order is an imperial decree. Do you still want to disobey it? And Susu and I are both princesses of Dayan's enemy country. Can you bear to watch us die alone? If that's the case, why did you rescue us from the imperial prison in the first place?"

Luo Wanting asked three questions in a row, leaving Lin Feng speechless. If the Queen could not persuade Huangfu Gongcheng to take back his decision, his brother would probably have three wives and four concubines.

Forget it, let everything take its course!

"Um...Wanting! I'm hungry, let's eat first!"

After Lin Feng finished speaking, he quickly walked towards the living room of the palace. Seeing this, Luo Wanting and Xia Susu immediately chased after him, "Lin Feng, if you don't say anything, then we will take it as your consent!"

When Lin Feng heard this, he immediately quickened his pace...
