Except for old people and pure newbies, the situations I reported to Li Sheng were basically shipwrights who were neither too old nor that new.
The core team has nothing to say, but the newcomers... leave it to the branches.
Then, won't the industrial areas be full of old people? This doesn't seem to solve the problem...
Wu Meiniang was still quite confused and couldn't grasp the point at all.
However, Li Sheng also knew that Wu Meiniang definitely didn't understand those many skills, and he didn't give in. "Of course, the shipbuilding business should be handed over to the branch company. In addition to developing overseas, this branch company also has our Datang..."
"China has a lot of coastline. Can't we build a few new shipyards? As for Hangzhou... let's renovate the research institute."
"graduate School?"
Wu Meiniang didn't expect that after this phone call, she originally wanted to ask Li Sheng for some ideas, but she didn't expect that the idea would be so big!
Converting a shipyard into a research institute is equivalent to...
Is it equivalent to giving away the "shipbuilding" itself?
Then Li Sheng kept talking, ignoring Wu Meiniang's shock and confusion, and continued, "Yes, we want to set up a research institute. Of course, things are not so absolute. Whether shipbuilding should continue in Hangzhou, you have to decide.
Just come, in short... there is no problem in building a research institute. The industrial zone already has a research department, and the stall was not big before, so just expand it."
"Then...these boatmen who want to make more money, let's take the exam together."
"take an exam?"
"Otherwise? Those who pass will go to the graduate school. Those who don't win the exam...then what else is there to say? The loser will eat the dust, do you understand?"
Wu Meiniang understood instantly.
Isn't this... just like His Majesty's imperial examination?
Since there are many powerful people in the country, let’s use exams to select them...
Anyway, hundreds of years of troubled times are all about getting higher, so let’s take the test. Whoever wins the test will get the upper hand!
How much ability can this exam screen out, or is it secondary? The key is that as long as there is an open and fair screening process, then no one can say anything...
No one had anything to say, and the conflict was resolved naturally!
Wu Meiniang suddenly realized that her Majesty's imperial examination system was actually the prince's advice...
Sure enough, in terms of ghost ideas, there are still so many dead ghosts... I can't live without this person, it's really...
Of course, Wu Meiniang... is different from everyone else in this era.
First of all, she is different from Li Sheng. There is nothing to say about this. No one can be the same as a real time traveler...
Secondly, she is also different from other people of this era. Although there are many people who are overtly or covertly influenced by Li Sheng, but... Wu Meiniang is special in that she has always been on the front line of production.
She has experienced changes in social production methods!
This kind of thinking is naturally more advanced than many people of the same generation, sharp and good at change and adaptation.
When Li Sheng communicates with several old men such as Lao Li and Lao Wei, he needs to clearly explain the principles of a strategy, but when communicating with Wu Meiniang, there is often no need to explain the principles... even though Wu Meiniang actually doesn't read as much as Li Er and Wei Zheng.
Therefore, Wu Meiniang was still keenly aware...
There are still some hidden dangers in using examinations to select talents, promote and dismiss them. Although it is unclear why, Wu Meiniang can still feel...
However, this feeling was just a feeling after all, and it was not another time traveler after all. Wu Meiniang soon put these problems aside and went about her business.
And this way...
Li Sheng's busy days have finally come to an end.
The railway is finally built!
As a traveler, Li Sheng also understood that although the fate of China has changed complicatedly due to its vast land and large population, the biggest problems will always be the problem of dealing with the poor frontier areas.
Now, Datang has a railway...
Then in the future, no matter who the next generation of His Majesty is after Li Er is gone, border issues, whether they are poverty or riots, will be much easier and more convenient to deal with.
Compared with people in this era, people always value tactics and strategies, but for Li Sheng, who is used to playing gambling games, operation has never been the most important thing. Operations without clear goals will only lock people's ranks in silver.
But operation is still important after all, so the most valuable operation goal must of course revolve around the operation itself...it is necessary to expand the operation space and widen the road.
For Li Sheng, since the railway has finally been established, the road in the Western Region should be much wider than before.
Now, Li Sheng's next step is of course the internal combustion engine...
This was a parallel plan with the complete steam engine project that Li Sheng had started in the second half of the fifth year of Zhenguan.
However... it was still a bit too difficult to build a complete steam engine that could truly be relied upon as a military weapon, and it took Li Sheng too much time. And in that process...
Of course, the matter of the internal combustion engine can only be put on hold - first of all, we have to eat step by step. The technical complexity of the internal combustion engine is originally higher than that of the steam engine. It can even be said...
No matter how awesome a steam engine is, it cannot compare to an internal combustion engine.
Of course, the power of a train's steam engine can be higher than that of an agricultural diesel engine, but when it comes to the most critical aspect of energy efficiency, the internal combustion engine may not always be the best, but it must be the father of all steam engines.
Of course, it will be more difficult to develop something with higher efficiency.
And now...
Li Sheng can indeed start this project and start filling the hole he dug. But...
Soon, Li Sheng also realized something again.
Steam engines, except for those developed by Wei Ziyu and others to help farmers transport vegetables and generate income, are fundamentally expensive and cannot be afforded by current farmers.
If the cost of the semi-finished train is spread over the farmers around Lingzhou, no matter how much vegetables they sell, they will go bankrupt at the speed of light. However, the energy efficiency of the mature steam engine developed by Li Sheng, and the cost-effectiveness derived from the efficiency, can
It is something that Datang can really bear and use.
But that was already a relatively mature industrial design, and before that... I first built a steam engine for ships.
The reason is very simple. Everything used in ships is heavy and heavy. Of course, this is not the point.
The key point is that the ship has a strong carrying capacity, and after all, it is a good thing as long as it has power - better than a sail anyway. Therefore, it is a natural choice to complete the trial production of the steam engine on the ship first.
As for the internal combustion engine... Li Sheng originally planned to complete this research and development in Lingzhou and draw out the design drawings.
It's just a pity... As Li Sheng really started to focus on internal combustion engines, he soon discovered that the internal combustion engines used in cars were still a bit too complicated. In other words...
