Sun Changhao was stunned for a moment, and when he came, he entrusted himself with such an important task, a gunpowder workshop with two thousand cannons and 20,000 muskets, how big is it? Is the ratio of 1 tael and 5 cents of salt, 2 cents of sulfur, and 3 cents of willow charcoal better than mine?

Yinzhen shouted outside: "Haifeng." [The latest updates are all in search.]

Dachun replied outside: "Master, Young Master Wanyan has gone to the Zhang family."

Yinzhen patted his forehead lightly and smiled, "I'm all busy and confused. Dachun, please inform Lord Xu and ask him to accompany Sun Changhao to choose a place to build a gunpowder workshop. In addition, find a place for Sun Changhao to settle down. The monthly payment is 10 taels, and the first three months of silver is paid as a settlement fee, and he is given two entourages, and then Ma Ming is sent as his deputy."

Ma Ming was dug by Yinzhen from the Ministry of Industry and was a talent in firearms. He was a Han Chinese. He was less than 30 years old. If you practice more, it may be a one-sided talent.

A monthly salary of 10 taels of silver! Sun Changhao was shocked. He only had 800 ounces in the firecracker workshop for a month. He didn't expect Yinzhen to think so thoughtful for him. He immediately felt a fever. "The Fourteenth Master is so kind, and I can't repay you. I will do my best to do my job well."

"Of course, you have to do your job well, but you have to pay attention to your health. In the future, I will point you at you and do a great job." Yinzhen said quietly, "The gunpowder workshop should be kept away from crowded places. Just talk if you want people and money. In addition, you can settle your home and move it to Shanghai. It's better to avoid running around. Don't worry about the money you want to settle your family. I will arrange it for you."

Looking at Sun Changhao, who was flushed, retreated with Dachun. Yinzhen secretly reviewed, why didn’t he expect to build a gunpowder workshop at the beginning? What else is missing? Don’t think about letting Xu Shizhen go to conquer the land again, that would be a joke.

There are two shipyards, foundry, firearm factory, iron smelting factory, gunpowder workshop, naval academy, well, it’s better to have a quilt factory. I plan to recruit a navy of 20,000. Now the number of jackets of Bingyong is not suitable for wearing on warships. Each person has several sets of clothes, hats, shoes, socks and quilts every year. Yes, this quilt factory really needs to have one of them, what’s the shorts?

While thinking about it, I heard from outside, "Master, Miss Zhang is here."

Yinzhen was happy and stepped to the door a few steps. When he saw Zhang Mengjiao coming over with a smile on his face, he said with a smile: "The ancients said that it is like three autumns a day without seeing each other, which is really not an exaggeration at all."

Zhang Mengjiao said angrily, "Stop talking, I have something to say. This snowy day is going back and forth, do you want to be exhausted?"

Yinzhen didn't care at all, "Haha, I'm not anxious. I'm just about to ask for some advice. Come in quickly and don't be frozen."

When Zhang Mengjiao entered the house, Yinzhen said, "Although I am in charge of shipbuilding in Shanghai, I am a very layman in this regard. The shipbuilding masters invited from all over the country will not be able to be in place until the beginning of the year, but I cannot wait now. Some things must be planned first. Although I have a lot of people in my hands, no one can tell me about the shipbuilding. So, I have to invite you, the great god. What I want to understand is, what are the woods used to build ships? Where do I usually come from?"

Zhang Mengjiao looked at the layout of the study casually. After Yinzhen finished speaking, she sneered: "What? The Fourteenth Master also got stuck in his neck?"

This woman was too careful. She knew the elegant meaning after hearing the string song. Yinzhen had already learned it. "Can you tell me what you thought?"

"This is not simple. I just asked someone to invite me as soon as I separated. I asked the wood. Isn't it strange to worry about being stuck in the wood?" Zhang Mengjiao showed a disdainful look, and after saying that, she asked curiously, "Didn't you offend all the offshore fleets?"

"I even want to offend everything, and I have to have this ability, right?" Yinzhen pretended to be impatient, "I'm telling you aunt, don't keep it a secret, and say quickly."

"Go, who loves to be your aunt?" Zhang Mengjiao spat lightly before saying, "Shipbuilding is usually made of local materials. The most important thing in the south is fir. Fir is easy to process, corrosion resistance, light and soft texture, and moisture resistance. It is an excellent ship material, but the most important thing is grid wood, also known as iron wood. Grid wood is hard and heavy, has high strength and resistant to insect corrosion. Since the Ming Dynasty, important parts such as keels, ribs, and rudders of large lucky ships and warship hulls have been used. You are

The second is teak and pine. Teak is of medium weight, not easy to deform, not easy to wear, and corrosion resistance. It is the most ideal wood for decks. Pine is also known as the "10,000-year seabed pine". It has high strength, wear resistance, and is not afraid of water immersion. It is also suitable for decks or structural boards. Nanmu, elm, and locust wood are generally made of beams and studs, elm, betel, pine wood, and circumference wood. It can also be used as rudder poles and door-closing sticks, cypress wood, elm wood, elm wood, and elm wood for oars. Straight fir wood is used for masts, and it doesn't matter what else."

My goodness, when she heard her report the characteristics and uses of various woods like a cannon, Yinzhen couldn't help but be shocked. She is worthy of being a child of a noble family from a large ship merchant. She can't help but talk about such detailed information. She can't drag it anymore. Tomorrow, I'll have someone come to propose marriage and take over the name first.

Zhang Mengjiao didn't know his dirty thoughts, and said, "Fir trees are easy to talk about, and can come from the rivers and the seas outside the seas. Gemu is mainly produced in Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian, Zhejiang and Taiwan. Teak trees come from Siam, Myanmar, and pine trees are good for Zhili and Kanto. As for cypress trees, elm trees, nanmu, elm trees, elm trees, locust trees, etc., they are all in both rivers, lakes, Guangdong and Guangxi. If you want to build an ocean fleet, there are hundreds of ships of all sizes and sizes, the consumption of wood is quite amazing. As long as a road is broken off from the inland and rivers, your shipbuilding plan may still be in the womb."

I'm still in the womb? I finally saw a glimmer of dawn in the Ocean Empire. How could it be that I'm still in the womb? There is no problem with the inland rivers. After all, there are so many clan royal families who say hello. Those slaves who are sent out are not all vegetarians. The problem is the offshore, but Yinzhen also knows nothing about the situation of the sea fleet. "There is no problem with the inland rivers, the problem is the offshore. What is the offshore trade fleet?"

"Sailing at sea is not as good as inland rivers. Small fleets are generally attached to large fleets. When sailing out of sea, they are basically in groups. Small fleets going to sea alone are tantamount to giving money to pirates. Your bulk timber transportation can only rely on large fleets. In fact, each large fleet is composed of countless small fleets with backgrounds, and the relationships inside are also complicated and complex. They have their own spheres of influence, trade routes, objects and trade commodities. They are also excluded, suppressed and embezzled each other, but to the outside, they are absolutely the same, so the large fleets are all giants with deep backgrounds." Because they are not sure where Yinzhen's worries come from, and they do not know the specific situation, Zhang Mengjiao stopped here.
