Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

Lu Daqiang showed Li Ke their achievements, mainly the different papers they produced. Li Ke held it in his hand and looked at it. The progress of these papers is obvious. For example, the spread of ink is smaller, and the paper is relatively soft. Also whiter.

Li Ke didn't ask them to reduce costs immediately. Cost reduction always has to be done step by step. It is impossible to become a fat man with one bite. With the information provided by Li Ke, they are now ahead of everyone.

In fact, it is a pity that Lu Daqiang and the others still lack scholars as their support.

If you want to become a craftsman or scientist with qualified invention ability, reading is a must.

Even if they don't become the modern students who complete the basic compulsory education, they must learn the most basic knowledge of mathematics and physics, and then they can gradually establish their scientific values ​​and pass on this spirit step by step.

"In addition to the improvement of papermaking, we have made some progress in spinning machines and looms, mainly to make the cloth weave more tightly and the pattern can be woven more complicated. For this reason, we and the blacksmith started to improve the bearings. , mainly rolling balls." Lu Daqiang said.

"Currently we are mainly suitable for testing cylindrical balls, which are less difficult."

Li Ke nodded. There are various types of balls. The most common ones for ordinary people are undoubtedly spherical and cylindrical. As far as the current ancient industry is concerned, the manufacture of cylindrical balls is obviously less difficult than spherical balls.

The use of balls has actually greatly improved the industry. For example, the efficiency of some places that require bearings will be higher.

The most common is undoubtedly the improvement of vehicles such as carriages.

"These tasks are not easy. Take your time. If the current manpower is not enough, you can choose from those beggars. They have already begun to learn some knowledge. These children are not very old, but because they have just come into contact with Knowledge, so they are more malleable." Li Ke nodded, he knew very well that these things can't be rushed.

What Li Ke wants to establish is a complete training system, not to say that he is in a hurry to make so many advanced things. With the system, there can be countless more. It doesn't make any sense to just make a few individually.

"It's Your Highness, but our progress is a bit slow... let His Highness down." Lu Daqiang and others were very embarrassed. In their view, they had the honor given by His Highness and almost unlimited financial support from His Highness. , but the results they gave... Many of them are a little bit of improvement based on the results that His Highness originally gave.

This is not sorry for His Highness's cultivation of them.

"No, what you have done is very good. Any industrial improvement process is not an easy thing to break through. What you are doing now is good enough! Especially many craftsmen among you are learning from scratch. Belittle yourself, if these things were so easy, I wouldn't have built such a large area for you." Li Ke smiled, stretched out his hand and patted Lu Daqiang's shoulder and said.

"Yes!" Lu Daqiang took a deep breath. They still have some craftsmen who are not here. For example, a considerable number of blacksmiths are in iron and steel factories, mainly to study and improve hydraulic devices, and to increase iron making. The efficiency of blast furnaces and steelmaking open hearth furnaces, etc.

"I'm relieved after seeing you, but when you are doing research, you should rest and rest. I hope you can make better results next year." Li Ke said with a smile.

"Yes! Your Highness."

……

Coming out of the industrial area, Li Ke turned directly to a village not far away. This village did not exist before, but a village formed here by refugees. Of course, they are no longer called refugees because they With their own house, household registration and other aspects are also fixed in the local area.

Preliminary planning has been carried out for the houses and buildings in the village, and they are all neatly built.

Liu Laosan has a smile on his face, and he is congratulating people with a smile. Today is the day when his house starts cooking. Before the Chinese New Year, he finally moved into a new house. Although it is just an earthen house, it is also theirs. The new house, speaking of it, is better than their old house in the village. The inside and outside of this house are painted with beautiful plaster.

Thanks to His Highness, although the lime is white, it can prevent moths. The point is that after applying the lime mixture, even if it rains, as long as it doesn't fall for a long time, you won't be afraid.

Unlike a house that is smoothed with mud, if it rains for too long and the rain is too heavy, the house is at risk of being washed away.And with lime applied, no matter how heavy the heavy rain is, there will be no risk of destroying the house.

Most of the people from the village came here today, and the house was built with the help of the people in the village, so it is necessary to invite the whole village to have a meal when the stove is opened today. Although it is said that the whole village is invited to eat, but In fact, when everyone came, everyone brought their own food.

Every household is like this, this village is built up little by little!

Houses are provided by everyone for free, helping each other, isn’t that what neighbors do?

It felt like people were coming. Just as Liu Laosan was about to go back, he suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes in the distance. Liu Laosan stopped his footsteps. The sound of horseshoes was a big deal. Maybe it was His Highness’s guards who came to inform them that there was a new arrival. things to do.

Don't dare to delay His Highness's business, even if it delays his new house, he can't delay His Highness's business, without His Highness, there would be no them.

Liu Laosan stood where he was, and soon a dozen horses turned across the road at the head of the village and ran towards his house.

Before Liu Laosan could see clearly who it was, he saw that the person who came stopped the horse, turned over and got off the horse.

"My mother! It's Your Highness!" Waiting for the person to get off his horse, Liu Laosan suddenly recognized him and yelled out.

Liu Laosan doesn't know His Highness, but he knows His Highness's clothes!There is no prince in the world who wears all clothes, only His Royal Highness King Qin. I heard that His Highness spent too much money on them and has no money to make new clothes, so there is not much silk left in the house. His Royal Highness King Qin Clothes are only made of that kind of silk.

When Liu Laosan was speaking outside the city before Prince Qin went to the Western Regions, he saw His Highness from a distance once. His Highness was wearing this dress at that time, and it is still exactly the same now, so Liu Laosan immediately recognized it.

Some time ago, many of them also said that they wanted to buy a few bolts of better silk for His Highness to make clothes for His Highness, but they were finally stopped by their Li Zheng.

Li Zheng said, His Highness has explained that His Highness is not short of money. The reason why His Highness wears the same clothes is to save money, to make as much money as possible, and His Highness himself is not short of clothes. Yes, you can still ask His Majesty.
