The craftsmen took the blueprint and looked at it carefully, they didn't quite understand what this thing was used for, but they probably understood the power of this thing after listening to the words of the Holy Majesty, so they responded immediately.

"Please rest assured, my lord, we will definitely develop this thing and start mass production as soon as possible!"

"Well, this thing is more dangerous when it is developed, pay attention to the safety of gunpowder."

Lu Chensheng nodded, looked at the place carefully, and felt that the conditions here were still acceptable.

The craftsmen who stayed here have already stayed here a long time ago, and their identities have been checked several times, so there is no identity problem.

Leakage of secrets is also not a concern.

The craftsmen were very excited that they would soon have a new job, and it was the task that the Holy Majesty personally came to explain.

The Holy Majesty attaches so much importance to it, they must develop this thing as soon as possible to satisfy the Holy Majesty.

"By the way, apart from this gun, you also need to make this thing."

Lu Chensheng said, and handed out another blueprint of the cannon.

This thing is also quite simple, but it requires an astonishing amount of iron.

However, the amount of iron produced by the Xinghan Empire today, coupled with the quality of steel today, can completely withstand the use of this cannon.

Although the consumption of this thing is a bit alarming, but for today's Xinghan Empire, it is just a drizzle.

After the craftsmen took over, they nodded immediately after reading it, indicating that they have no problem.

They had already communicated with the people at the institute before.

I know a general idea of ​​how to use a steam engine.

For example, with a steam engine, it is much easier to make a cannon barrel like this.

All of this can be done by machines.

The place here is still very big, Lu Chensheng inspected around, there are stoves everywhere, even at this time it is still very hot.

Lu Chensheng saw that the conditions of the blacksmiths were very good, so he left satisfied.

When he left, the craftsmen immediately started chatting excitedly, and he finally saw the Holy One.

There are some people here who came later and have never met the Holy Majesty. Now that they have finally met, they always feel that their faces are bright. When chatting, they feel that this matter can be included in the genealogy.

The senior craftsmen of the older generation were also quite excited. The Holy Majesty hadn't come for a long time, but now that he came here once, he was still very excited when he saw him.

After leaving the blacksmith's shop, Lu Chensheng came to the carpenter's workshop on the side.

In Star Seoul, although there is a shipyard dedicated to manufacturing ships, the place where the ship is actually developed is still here.

Some of the more technical parts are completed here, and then sent to the dock to be pieced together.

The craftsmen here are all highly skilled. Of course, the monthly salary is also extremely high, and the treatment of the family members is also excellent.

From the beginning, they came here poor and poor, and now they have bought a lot of houses in Xinghan City, and they also have a lot of savings at home.

The imperial court abolished some laws, so that their descendants were no longer artisans, and now their children have started to go to school.

In just a few years, their lives have undergone earth-shaking changes, and there is no craftsman here who is not grateful to the current imperial court.

When Lu Chensheng came in, the carpenters looked very excited. Although the ceremony of kneeling and worshiping had been abolished, a group of craftsmen subconsciously wanted to kneel down and pay respects to Lu Chensheng.

After being persuaded by Lu Chensheng, the craftsmen didn't know where to put their hands and kept wiping them.

"Don't be so nervous, I'm just here to inspect."

Seeing the nervousness of the craftsmen, Lu Chensheng immediately smiled gently.

Probably because Lu Chensheng was quite approachable, after the words fell, the carpenters immediately calmed down a lot.

"I heard that you have already started preparing new ships?"

Lu Chensheng noticed that there was a model beside him, which was a kind of ship that he had not seen before.

"Yes, in fact, we have been studying it a long time ago. Although we have made some progress, according to our calculations, this new ship is too heavy. Speed ​​is a problem when sailing, and there has been no way to solve it. But the previous After knowing this steam engine, we know that this ship can finally be built and tested."

The old craftsman on the side heard the words, and immediately said excitedly.

They have been stuck on the ship technology side for a long time, and there has been no progress.

The most satisfying work has been put aside because of the speed of sailing.

But it is different now, with this steam engine, these problems are no longer a problem.

Although this newest ship is generally a wooden ship, a lot of iron is used on the outside and inside.

The overall ship is still extremely bloated and bulky.

Lu Chensheng took the new ship and looked at it, "These places need to be vacated like a boat house, and some weapons need to be placed at that time."

Lu Chensheng was also polite, and directly asked the ship to make an improvement.

For these improvements, the artillery is naturally placed. There may be some dangers when sailing, and the artillery still needs to be placed.

I don't know if those islands, when they saw this kind of artillery for the first time, would be scared to pee their pants.

The carpenters didn't know what artillery was, but they listened to the Holy Majesty's request, and it didn't matter if they added the vacant space, so they just nodded to show that they remembered it clearly.

"For this production, you can communicate more with the people at the research institute. I'm afraid they will produce a lot of things in the near future. You can watch and join this ship."

Lu Chensheng stroked the boat, and could feel the fineness of the boat. The craftsmen took all aspects into consideration, and then made it according to the ratio of one to one.

It was very attentive.

The craftsmen immediately nodded when they heard this.

Lu Chensheng looked around, the carpenter's side was much more diverse than the blacksmith's side, and it was quite messy everywhere.

There are still molds in some places, and there are a lot of tools.

Seeing this scene, the craftsmen's faces turned rosy.

This is also because I didn't know that the Holy Majesty was coming, if I knew, I should clean it up!

Lu Chensheng didn't care much about it. From the unfinished wood on the side, he could see the skills of the craftsmen, and he was extremely relieved.

The technology of the Xinghan Empire all depends on them.

Now they still use wood to make ships, but in the future it will not be wood, but steel.

It's just that they still need a little change and a little bit of progress. I believe that this day should be possible in his lifetime.

After leaving the carpenter's side, Lu Chensheng came to the most core research institute.

There are many studies here, all of which are halfway done, or just started.

That's a lot of money already spent.

Now, there is finally something that can be sold.

The students in the research institute actually secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After spending these years, there is nothing to sell, which makes their research institute always lack confidence when asking for money.

Li Daifu from the Ministry of Household Affairs did not take this issue lightly.

When Lu Chensheng came in, everyone inside was busy, and the three steam engines were running continuously.

There are some simple machine tools on the side, and they start working after they are connected to the power.

Pick up some prepared materials from the side, and after putting them on, the machine tool can make the materials into the desired finished product.

For example, a small machine tool can rely on power to twist a steel bar into a spring shape.

It was very successful.

The students in the research institute were all excited and stared at this scene with wide eyes.

After these months, they have been studying various machine tools. Seeing that this machine tool can easily produce finished products that require a lot of time for craftsmen to create, and even produce things that they can't do at all, they feel very happy. Naturally, he was extremely excited.

These things have given them countless inspirations and inspirations.

Chapter 795 Next Year's Plan

When Lu Chensheng came in, a group of students didn't notice.

After the guards shouted, the students came to their senses and hurriedly bowed to salute.

"The saint is coming!"

The excited look on the faces of the students has not dissipated, and they all shouted respectfully.

"Well, I'm here to look around, don't be so cautious."

Lu Chensheng responded, and began to look around.

You can see a lot of machine tools here, all of which are some samples. After the experiment, it is confirmed that the things are ok, and the production can be started directly.

Lu Chensheng looked very satisfied. After the invention of the steam engine, the research they had been restricted before was directly broken, and various things began to be developed one after another.

Although there is nothing that can be sold in these years, what has settled down is manifested at this time.

Lu Chensheng looked very relieved, it was all paid for with money!

"My lord, according to your request, some relatively simple machine tools can already be produced and put into use!"

The students on the side said excitedly.

When the simple machine tool is used, let them feel the beauty contained in it.

What they have learned, after being used, has such a huge potential, which is something they could not experience just using theory before.

Lu Chensheng nodded with a smile on hearing this.

"I heard that you have also developed bearings?"

Driven by the steam engine, the machine tool can directly grind the balls out of the cutting tool made of high-quality steel.

The bearings are also made directly.

"Yes, it has been made, this is the finished product, please take a look."

The student responded, took the bearing from the side and handed it to Lu Chensheng.

After Lu Chensheng took it, he turned his hand vigorously, and the bearing immediately started to rotate.

Only to stop after ten laps.

It can be seen that the finished product is not very good, but it is enough for the Xinghan Empire.

And the current technology can reach the best point.

"Well done, this thing can be mass-produced directly. When our previous screw pump did not have bearings, it needed to consume too much kinetic energy. With this bearing, it will be much better. There is also a pulley block on the hanger. Wait, you need to use this bearing."

Lu Chensheng carefully looked at the bearing in his hand.

The weight is quite heavy, the overall appearance is silver-white, and the surface looks quite smooth, but when you touch it with your hands, you can still feel the roughness on it.

That is why industry is not enough.

"Please rest assured, the machine tools for making bearings are relatively simple. When the machine tools are mass-produced, the bearings can start mass production. It is estimated that there will be [-] machine tools put into use before New Year's Eve!"

"How many bearings can a machine tool produce in a day."

By New Year's Eve, there were twenty machine tools, and Lu Chensheng was very satisfied with this figure.

"Because of technical reasons and the power of the steam engine, a machine tool can make [-] bearings in twelve hours a day."

three hundred?Very good!

Twenty machine tools, 30 bearings a day, 18 bearings in [-] days!

"Very well, except for the bearing machine tool, there are other machine tools that are also needed. If there is not enough manpower, you are allowed to recruit more manpower. As for the space, the current space is really not enough. Let someone come over and expand it a little bit. .”

Lu Chensheng looked at the various machine tools beside him, his heart was full of enthusiasm.

For relatively simple objects, finished products can be made directly with machine tools.

When there are more machine tools, the production capacity of Xinghan Empire will be greatly changed.

Moreover, these things can all advance the industry, which is a virtuous circle!

This inspection, Lu Chensheng can be said to be extremely satisfied, the students are doing their best to study, as if the precipitation of the past few years will explode on this day.

After Lu Chensheng carefully read all the machine tools and asked about some details, seeing that there was nothing to explain, he got into the sedan chair and left.

Gu Zhifang just followed, seeing all kinds of machine tools here, especially when seeing these machines in operation, he was even more frightened.
