Ye Chunqiu was a little disappointed when he knew that this place that was most suitable in his eyes was actually in the name of Shouning Hou, but...

Ye Chunqiu looked at Zhu Houzhao deeply and said confidently: "Your Majesty, the geography here is unique, but it's a pity..."

Ye Chunqiu's words are a pity, which lays the groundwork for what will happen next.

Other emperors look down on me. Since they want to do big things, of course they must have the best conditions. After all, if a large amount of money is spent in the future, it will be difficult to move the place again.

Ye Chunqiu was waiting for Zhu Houzhao to express his opinion.

Zhu Houzhao seemed very cautious about this. Obviously he was hesitant. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "I will discuss this with Shouning Hou."

Ye Chunqiu felt relieved, but he knew in his heart that Zhu Houzhao did not like Shouning Hou. He hurriedly said, "Thank you for your grace."

Zhu Houzhao smiled instead: "I should thank you, Ye Aiqing. I will wait for your workshop to build more and earn more money. This new army in the country needs to expand one or two more. I can't wait."

After saying that, he said, "In addition, Zhenguo Mansion must be built. I have already decided that I should spare no effort. The Ministry of Revenue must allocate money and grain. All this order has been issued. If Zhenguo Mansion does not have it again, what should Zhenguo Duke do?"

Ye Chunqiu was drunk when he thought that he was still thinking about Zhenguo Mansion. By the way, the little emperor would feel uncomfortable if he didn't commit suicide.

However, it seems that there is a reason to prepare for the establishment of Zhenguo Mansion. Now the team of Zhenguo Mansion has been set up. If there is no general organization from the workshop to the Zhenguo New Army, it would be impossible. In the past, whether it was the new army or the workshop, they actually did their own things. To put it bluntly, there was no title in the past, but now it is different. There must be superstructure above it.

Although Zhu Houzhao was the Duke of Zhenguo, the real person was the consultant of Zhenguo Mansion. He built Zhenguo Mansion, which was essentially managed by Ye Chunqiu.

It is a pity that there is not a clean and transparent public housing.

Zhu Houzhao smiled and said, "You have proposed to build a big bell. This big bell is built in Zhenguo Mansion, here in the Forbidden City..." He smiled awkwardly and said, "The masters are so opposed to it. I just mentioned that they are like a mourning. The Zhenguo Mansion belongs to Zhu Shou. No one can object to the big bell. But you have to do everything. Money, grain, materials and craftsmen are allocated by the Ministry of Works. If Zhenguo Mansion has money, you should add some of it yourself. You must always be more grand."

Ye Chunqiu was busy receiving the order: "I obey the order."

The bell tower is located in Zhenguo Mansion, which is actually beneficial. The town government must be located on this land of reward. In the future, all workshops will have to be built outside Zhengyangmen. There is a big bell here, so craftsmen know the time, and it is convenient for them to work and to work.

When Zhu Houzhao mentioned the matter of building a bell tower, Ye Chunqiu thought about it and couldn't help but start to worry about it.

What changes the clock tower is not only the concept of time, but the most important thing is the level of skill.

This is just like Ye Chunqiu has many ideas, such as strong ships, powerful cannons, and many erotic tricks. If there is no foundation, it will be just a mirage.

This is also the reason why Ye Chunqiu dared not make muskets rashly. At this time, the muskets were far inferior in terms of range and accuracy. Since Ye Chunqiu pursued the strategy of elite troops, even if more than one hundred muskets were better than this era, what could it be? It would be difficult to become a climate after all. Ye Chunqiu's goal is that once the musket is assembled, at least the level of the musket must be reached to the level of the gun after being installed, rather than just manufacturing it for the sake of manufacturing.

However, once a large-scale production and loading of the gun is needed, there are too many problems encountered. This involves the process of the barrel. There is also a need for sufficient milling machines to create a stable barrel rifle. The function of the rifle is to give the bullet the ability to rotate, so that after the bullet is out of the bore, it can still be shot in a certain direction, which can greatly improve the accuracy and range of the musket. Although rifle has actually appeared in this era, due to the difficulty of manufacturing process, it was not popular until more than 300 years later.

In addition, there are many difficulties that Ye Chunqiu needs to overcome, such as bullets, gun needles, and available springs.

With the current conditions, Ye Chunqiu asked many craftsmen to create a gun together. The real problem is that if it is limited to a group of people making it by hand, it will not make much sense and cannot be put into production on a large scale. Even if there are so many sharp magical weapons, it will not be of great use.

To satisfy the era of gunpowder, logistics is a systematic problem. It is definitely not something that can be done by knocking and hitting with a hammer. The industrial countries in later generations crushed the late-developed countries, but it was not that the weapons of both sides were too poor. In fact, the late-developed countries tightened their belts and could buy batches of more advanced arms on the market. The facts proved that this was just a combination of things, because things could be bought, but the logistics system could not be copied. Once the industrial countries entered the wartime system, millions of people could be armed, and a steady stream of supplies and ammunition could be supplied to the front end of the front line at any time. Weapons could be continuously improved during the war. At this time, except for being beaten in all aspects, the only choice that the late-developed countries could make was to be beaten or kneel.

Materials, chemicals, machinery and other foundations have not been laid firmly. Instead of being too ambitious, it is better to be down-to-earth first.

The big clock is one of Ye Chunqiu’s important basic industries. Its advantage is that it can make money. At the same time, through making money, it cultivates a group of excellent craftsmen. In the process of manufacturing, it allows craftsmen to familiarize themselves with the application of mechanical structures such as gears and springs, and at the same time improves the processing accuracy and inspires people in materials science.

In the future, this watch will really be prosperous. Once it sells well, many craftsmen will inevitably join the watch manufacturing industry. After all, selling well means that there will be a steady stream of money. With the money, people will naturally be apprentices and learn how to make manufacturing. As long as someone is willing to learn, their skills and understanding of machinery will become deeper. At the same time, the downstream industry that supplies watch materials will also be born, such as workshops for various steel materials, such as springs and pointers.

And all this starts with the big bell tower. Ye Chunqiu has already thought about it. This bell tower must first be grand, secondly, and secondly, it must be grand.

If you are not arrogant enough, how can you advertise future watch workshops?
