, my beauty is drunk, my jade feet are slender, and my silk is entangled

"Two years?" At this time, Shan Qidong hesitated for a moment before asking Shen Mo: "In two years, are you going to have someone take over me?"

"Of course not." Shen Mo heard Shan Qidong's question at this time, and he replied with a smile:

"In two years, if you are willing to be responsible for the sales of Tongzhou goods, you can continue to do it. But at that time... you shouldn't need to smuggle."

After hearing Shen Mo's words, Shan Qidong seemed to figure it out at once.

He immediately shook his whole body, and looked at Shen Mo with an incredible look in his eyes!

"This guy is determined to be the world. Two years later, he is actually sure to include Lin'an in his control?" At this time, Shan Qidong suddenly remembered Shen Mo's usual style of conduct and his attitude towards the people of Lin'an.

Shan Qidong thought in shock: "Is this person a hero in troubled times or a hopeless madman?"

At this time, Shen Mo waved his hand and turned around and walked out with Long Yu Jue.

"Change him a clean room, go back to Tongzhou and arrange his family..." Shen Mo walked at this time, while instructing Long Yujue.

As the voices and footsteps of the two of them gradually faded away, Dan Qidong was left alone in the bottom cabin.

Then, when Shan Qidong looked up, he saw that the silver ingot taken out by Long Yujue on the box where Shen Mo had just sat was still flashing under the light.

He stood up slowly and took the silver ingot.

Shan Qidong put it in his palm and weighed it, then opened the lid of the box again, and put it back.

The ship was sailing on the sea, and there were endless waves ahead.

At this time, Shan Qidong was standing in the dim cabin at the bottom of the ship. His heart was turbulent and his heart was turbulent, just like this big ship fighting in the waves!

...

The Lin'an incident came to an end. Shen Mo retreated Sihai Trading Company and also revoked a huge amount of silver.

In addition to the 65 million taels belonging to Shi Party, there is also the mysterious 25 million taels of silver.

With this money, Shen Mo could use 30 million taels of it to purchase raw materials, purchase equipment, and increase investment in arms production and testing, which once again improved the speed of military research and development and production.

In addition, Shen Mo also had other plans for the remaining large amount of silver and had already arranged their use.

...

After July, Tongzhou also reached the hottest time of the year.

In this era without air conditioning, even if the emperor encounters such weather, he has to keep up.

If it were Zhao Yuju of the Song Dynasty, he could use the ice in the ice cellar to place a few pots in his bedroom to cool down, but Shen Mo would never allow this in his Tongzhou.

Because making ice in Tongzhou requires a lot of saltpeter. In fact, each of these saltpeter can be turned into bullets in a warrior rifle.

The large-scale expansion and equipment in arms has made every piece of saltpeter in Tongzhou an important strategic material. Projects such as using saltpeter to make ice or producing ice cream have been explicitly banned in Tongzhou.

In fact, saltpeter, until World War I, still plagued this bottleneck of major military powers in the world. Before the invention of synthetic ammonia technology, all arms production was inseparable from mining natural saltpeter.

During industrial production, saltpeter has nitric acid. Almost all explosives are related to nitric acid. Even the black gunpowder used in rifle bullets has a large proportion of saltpeter components.

Therefore, when Shen Mo did not have the ammonia synthesis technology, collecting saltpeter in various ways has become an unavoidable problem for Shen Mo's arms industry.

Fortunately, Tongzhou, where Shen Mo is located, is the southeast coast. The air here is humid and the temperature is moderate, which is the best natural environment to use the "Nitr Field Pipe Method". Therefore, this method was immediately promoted by Shen Mo and became one of the most important sources of saltpeter in Tongzhou.

In addition, the world's largest saltpeter mine is also in Chile, South America. Shen Mo didn't know where Taoist Priest Ling Xiaozi was floating in the Pacific Ocean. So he had to sigh.

In addition, India also has reserves of saltpeter mines, which Shen Mo saw from a novel back then. He was not impressed by it anymore. I wonder if it can be reliable.

At the same time, Shen Mo had no idea where the saltpeter mine in India was. So although he sent Apu out to find the saltpeter mine, he could not count on it for a while.

As for the method of nitride piled in the nitrate field just mentioned... it is actually a very disgusting thing.

The so-called nitrate method of nitride piled in the countryside is that white crystals often form on the walls of the soil-making toilets in rural areas. In fact, that thing is earth-silt.

So after I said this, everyone will understand that the so-called nitrate pile method in the nitrate field is actually a method of collecting nitrate soil using a large amount of human and animal manure and urine.

The principle applied here is: during the process of nitride accumulation, ammonia is produced after the excrement is fermented. Then the nitrifying bacteria (nitrite bacteria) that exist in nature will convert ammonia into nitrite.

After that, the nitrite was converted into nitrate by the second nitrate bacteria (nitric acid bacteria)... After this thing was scraped off, it became tinea.

After this, soil nitride can be purified and turned into industrial saltpeter.

To be honest, this process is not pleasant at all. But you just need to remember that in the second half of the 19th century, the naval guns of several Russian fleets were all achieved in this way to ensure the supply of the launching drugs.

This saltpeter is just one of the raw materials for military production, so it is so troublesome. From this we can know that Shen Mo's powerful modern weapons were actually piled up with such a stupid idea after he smashed a huge amount of silver!

...

As the weather gradually became hot, the confidential secretary Zhang Yiru, who was traveling back and forth to Shen Mo's office, gradually became cooler.

On this day, Shen Mo was surprised to see Miss Zhang wearing a cheongsam designed by her own hands.

The most important thing is that the smooth and round calves under the cheongsam are actually wearing stockings!

After two or three years, Tongzhou under Shen Mo's rule has been greatly opened.

Especially in the hot summer, girls no longer wrap their whole body tightly when they go out like before.

Although the half-sleeved clothes still have more than their elbows, and cotton socks are also worn in summer sandals, so that the girl's lotus feet will not be exposed. However, the snow-white calves occasionally flashing under the hem of the skirt are no longer a new landscape on the street.
