There are no airtight walls in the world.

The workshop under the Laoniu Transportation Team produced engine prototypes, and the news soon spread from the workshop city.

"Master, I heard that the engines made by the people from the Laoniu Transportation Team were not much the same as ours.

But the ignition test was successfully completed. Does this mean that there is something wrong with our engine design?

Otherwise, why wouldn't I be able to make the prototype smoothly?"

In the Chemical Academy of Guanshishan Academy, Lian Zhijian was a little unhappy and was talking to Rao Yongxiang there.

It is clear that the engine was first proposed by Guanshishan Academy.

Even this structural diagram and the requirements for each part were Lian Zhijian involved in the design.

But the first to produce results was other workshops.

This made Lian Zhijian feel a little embarrassed.

"Without seeing the specific situation of the other person's prototype, we cannot draw this conclusion.

I even think our engine is definitely fine.

We have organized specialized personnel to conduct multiple rounds of verification of his theoretical structure.

As long as each part can meet the design requirements, it will definitely be able to operate normally.

What is more troublesome now is that we have high requirements for parts design, and many workshops cannot produce the parts we need.

Or the parts they produce cannot meet the engine's usage requirements.

This is an important reason why our engine prototype has never been able to be successfully produced."

Rao Yongxiang is not as pessimistic as Lian Zhijian.

There is obviously no problem with my research direction, but I just want the prototype to come out a little later than others.

According to his original estimate, the engine prototype will not be successfully produced until next year and will start mass production in the next year.

But now they have made prototypes. If they go well, they might start mass production this year.

This matter will definitely put pressure on Guanshishan Academy.

"The news is that Jing Mu from the Laoniu Transportation Team presided over the engine project and made quite a big change based on our concept map.

All the parts and functions we originally needed were cancelled or changed.

So their engines are simpler than ours, and the requirements for parts are not that complicated.

Although I speculate that this will affect the performance of the engine to some extent, this is certainly not a main thing to consider.

No matter what level of engine it is, as long as it can be successfully made, it will definitely be able to find its application scenario."

Lian Zhijian has been studying engines for so long and is absolutely optimistic about the engine's prospects.

Not to mention anything else, the engine alone can hopefully replace the horses in various carriages, and this function is not an exaggeration.

Although the Tang Dynasty controlled Zhenbei Road, Longyou Road and other places, there was actually no shortage of horses.

But raising horses is more troublesome.

A relatively good horse will definitely cost much more money in a year than a middle-aged man.

The most important thing is that you have to arrange personnel to take care of it and have a special stable.

What makes people feel even more troublesome is that after too many horses, the number of horse manure on the road will inevitably increase.

Imagine the scene where the originally spacious Zhuque Street was filled with horse manure after one carriage after another.

In winter, you may not have such an intuitive feeling.

In summer, the smell is definitely enough for many people to drink a pot.

This is also an important reason why so many academies and workshops participated in it after the engine was proposed.

It’s not only Lian Zhijian who can see the function of the engine, but others are not stupid.

Otherwise, Lao Hansan’s transportation team would be well done, so why would he enter the industry like engine production?

"You're talking about how the engine starts?

The Jingmu canceled a lot of parts and directly started the engine using a stupid way.

This news is no secret in Chang'an City.

But before I saw the actual product, I didn’t want to comment too much.

However, being able to run this engine smoothly at least shows that Jingmu's design idea is not a problem.

Unexpectedly, what we professionals have not accomplished, the manager of a transportation team has figured it out."

Rao Yongxiang obviously had no idea about Jingmu before.

But I have heard of such a person.

Even when Jing Mu was in charge of the engine production project of the Laoniu Transportation Team, Rao Yongxiang felt funny after hearing this.

Can you get the engine just by just a few scrambling times?

Now, people not only have to make trouble, but also have to make trouble earlier than you.

This is embarrassing.

"Master, if we say that if our Chemistry College organizes a visiting and learning team to the Laoniu Transportation Team for exchange, would they be willing to receive it?"

Lian Zhijian, who was itchy, obviously wanted to figure out what the other party’s engine was designed as soon as possible.

Although various information is circulating, this is not first-hand news after all, and Lian Zhijian is skeptical about these things.

And some news came and went, and it was obviously a change in what had been spread.

"If the engine was made by Imperial College, Weishui Academy, Qujiang Academy and other institutions.

So when we visited Shishan Academy and visited and studied, they were most likely very welcome.

This is a good opportunity for them to show their faces.

However, the Laoniu Transportation Team is a commercial institution, and the purpose of their existence is to make money.

If we visited in the past, they would first consider whether our skills would be learned by us.

Then it will affect their earnings.

So I think they probably won’t accept our visit application.

Even if we really let us go, we may not be able to study their products carefully.”

If Rao Yongxiang puts his heart in mind, he will definitely hold on to his newly developed products tightly if he feels that he is the shopkeeper of a workshop.

Before selling it to the public, I definitely don’t want others to know the specific situation.

There are so many workshops in the workshop city, and there are things that one company first develops a product, but the other company makes money every year.

This has made many shopkeepers pay more attention to the protection of their own technology.

Some core craftsmen are even forced to sign some agreements with the workshop, which do not allow you to change jobs to your competitors within a certain period of time.

This later competition agreement is similar.

“If we go visit, they don’t want to receive it.

The writers of the "Datang Daily" went to visit, should they support it?

Then I will be able to get into the newspaper team and look from a distance.”

Lian Zhijian said unwillingly.

"If you find a relatively ordinary person, there is a success in this kind of thing.

But with your own popularity, do you think people won’t know you?

If you are told on the spot, it will be more embarrassing."

Rao Yongxiang obviously does not support Lian Zhijian in doing such a sneaky thing.

In his heart, he still felt that the engine he was studying was the best.

Even if the Laoniu Transportation Team already has a prototype, it may not be a good product.

Or to put it another way, even if someone’s prototype appears in front of him now, Rao Yongxiang is disdainful to imitate it.

The things that Guanshishan Academy must be higher are original.

Rao Yongxiang was unwilling to make something come out and let them imitate it.

"If this doesn't work, then I can only wait and see.

I guess after they knew that the information about their prototype was transmitted, they would soon go to the Royal Patent Office of the Tang Dynasty to register a patent.

Or publish a paper in the Journal of Science.

Then, as soon as possible, put the mature products on the market to make money.”

Lian Zhijian said a little disappointed.

However, after Rao Yongxiang talked to him again, Lian Zhijian rekindled the momentum of struggle.

Then he began to work hard on his engine project.
