Hua Houwei nodded: "Tomorrow is the time to negotiate with the Portuguese. Master, let's have a good rest today and welcome you to the evening. I have to advise me tomorrow!"

Liu Jian nodded: "It doesn't matter if you welcome the people, but what kind of constitution is your Kaihai Zongli Yamen? You have to talk about it."

"Well, now everything is in trouble. It is initially planned to establish the Inspection Department, the Maritime Taxation Department, the Trade Department, and the Government Affairs Department. The Inspection Department has two naval forces, one offshore navy, shooting the Japanese army, defending the offshore and destroying seas such as Japanese pirates.

Bandits; a long-distance naval communist army, escorting merchant ships, attacking other countries' naval navies, and even destroying their families. The Maritime Taxation Department specializes in collecting taxes on opening seas to sell goods outside the Ming Dynasty, with a share of 46% of the capital city, and a total of 44%

Cheng. 1.5% of the 60% of the capital city is given to the inner court, and 45% of the treasury is given to the treasury. The Trade Department is responsible for bargaining foreign prices, entertaining merchants from all countries, and bidding for internal products. The Government Affairs Department is mainly responsible for contacting various government offices and training

Professional talents, such as translation, silk inspection, tea inspection, porcelain inspection, etc..”

"Wow, it's amazing. It's already the sixth ministry of Nanjing, the number one small." Liu Jian exclaimed, but there was no joy in his eyes.

Hua Houwei was stunned: "Mr. Liu, isn't it right?"

Xie Qian sighed: "Your Highness, in the past, you always didn't eat fat, so why do you now have great power and don't know how to share the benefits?"

Hua Houwei was stunned for a long time and nodded: "Yes, I was negligent. In this way, the inspection department will be added and the personnel will be drawn from the north, so that the nobles will be integrated with the Kaizhong. The Lifan Department will be added and the six departments in Nanjing will be from the six departments.

The civil servants will be profitable and will not cause any trouble. If the inspectors are added, the juren who have been on the south list can be selected, and the entire south will be included in the trap. The industry department will be added, internal bidding, and the training of inspection personnel will be responsible for the training of inspectors. The instructors will be craftsmen from various industries.

Assistant, all the merchants in the world are tied to Kaisong.”

Liu Jian frowned: "Industry Department? Your Highness, do you need it?"

This time Hua Houwei insisted on his own opinion: "Mr. Liu, the only way to fight against landlords is to merchants. How can we withstand the strangulation of gentry? I am not trying to destroy gentry, but I want them to be afraid and not be lawless.

In this way, the great Ming Dynasty scholars, farmers, industry and commerce are complete, with similar forces, and elite soldiers, which can be said to be as solid as a god."

Liu Jian thought for a while and nodded: "Okay, some people are really too greedy, so it's not an exaggeration!"

Xie Qian also agreed: "Your Highness is well aware of the beauty of balance in this move, but you must prevent merchants from backlashing. After all, no businessman will be traitorous!"

Hua Houwei nodded: "Don't worry, Master, second master, in my heart, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce have no good or evil, and are the cornerstones of my Ming Dynasty, and neither is missing."

While talking, the convoy arrived at the Wu Palace. After arranging Liu Jian and Xie Qian to rest, Hua Houwei went out and went straight to Jinling Guns and Cannon Factory. Zhao Shizhen's proud report yesterday that the mountain cannon has been formed and can be produced in a fixed manner. Hua Houwei must go and see it.

look.

At Danxia Mountain shooting range, Zhao Shizhen saw Hua Houwei coming and hurriedly came forward: "Master, you are here."

Hua Houwei glared: "What's wrong? You are rich when you come? Oh, yes, you can get a fund when you have a fixed shape. You kid have bad intentions!"

Zhao Shizhen called out to the sky: "Master, what kind of heart are you trying to judge a gentleman's abstinence! Have you forgotten that you just issued the mission of developing a naval gun yesterday?"

"Oh, yes! I forgot! Okay, let's take a look at your mountain cannon now!" The so-called mountain cannon is the French M1897 75 rapid-fire cannon. Hua Houwei has been to the military museum and worked in the model factory. Yes,

This famous French lady is very familiar with her. She also secretly got back and ordered parts, assembled one by herself, and could also fire micro shells. She was snatched away by her best friend and was depressed for several days.

Zhao Shizhen happily led Hua Houwei to the front of the position, pointed to the mountain cannon and said, "Master, look, what else is there?"

Hua Houwei refused to answer and turned around the mountain cannon several times. There were 28 rifles in the blue cannon barrel, and there was a shield with a 45-plate steel plate between the two huge iron wheels, a screw-type cannon bolt, and a long hydraulic recombination.

Entering the track, well, is what I think in my memory.

"Try it!"

"Good!"

Zhao Shizhen immediately ordered someone to bring a brass shell. After the shell was stuffed into the barrel, he closed the screw bolt and pulled the fuse. Boom! The mountain cannon jumped a little, and the cannon retreated. Under the action of the hydraulic re-entry device, he returned.

Go to the origin!

Hua Houwei raised the telescope in his hand, and a cloud of dust exploded in his vision, and the target painted by quicklime disappeared. "Well, it's not bad. What's the rate of fire?"

"Fifteen to twenty shots per minute, and thirty shots at a fast speed."

"36 times the caliber?"

"Don't worry, Master. The barrel is 2.7 meters long, the diameter is 75 mm, the effective range is 8.5 kilometers, the shooting angle is 11 degrees to 18 degrees. There are two types of shells, one is high-explosive shell and the other is shotgun. They are all according to Master.

The drawings are definitely not bad!”

Hua Houwei nodded with satisfaction: "As long as you do! Do a destructive test immediately to see how our mountain cannon performs and where is the limit!"

Zhao Shizhen nodded and smacked his lips: "It's a pity. This cannon steel is the best ratio we have obtained for a long time to test and then cast it. After forging, the inner chamber is finely ground. Although the rifle has a prototype when forging.

But I have to go to the lathe, which took a lot of effort. The most important thing is that the shells are all made of brass, so they are all money!"

Hua Houwei smiled and pointed at Nanfang: "You only have this little vision! I'll ask you, will this mountain cannon be born, will there be an enemy in this world?"

Zhao Shizhen shook his head.

"Of course! A cannon fired a thousand taels of gold! It means it is costly, but it also means it is making money!"

"make money?"

"Yes, let me ask you, what is the most profitable business in the world?"

"Be an official?"

Hua Hou Wei widened his eyes in anger and then smiled bitterly: "Yes, robbers make money than being officials! We can shoot a few cannons, and we have to pay as much gold and silver! The Ming army protected its people, but did not protect foreign vassals.

People! Do you understand?”

"Okay, who told you to be the master?"

The two of them were joking for a while, and Zhao Shizhen suddenly said seriously: "Master, I want to go to the internal combustion engine factory."

Hua Houwei nodded with gratitude. This is not what Zhao Shizhen said, but he had to let him go. So he nodded slightly: "Okay! Conquer the naval gun first, and then go to the engine factory! Shizhen, as long as you can build it according to the drawings.

With a two-stroke engine, we may fly up!"

Flying up? Zhao Shizhen pointed at the sky with suspicious index finger: "Above?"

"Yes! It's really not difficult to go to heaven!"

"Really?" A glimmer burst out in Zhao Shizhen's eyes, which made people dare not look directly at him!

Hua Houwei smiled slightly, turned his arms back and turned away.
Chapter completed!
