At the Beijing Railway Station, Liu Jin sent Ali Pasha, Moses and his party away with a smile on his face, and he was slightly relieved.
I can finally take a good rest.
These days, Liu Jin was very tired from running around with Ali Pasha, Moses and others in factories, schools, ports, etc. in the Beijing-Tianjin area.
Now that I have finally won an order of 30 million taels of silver, my merits have been fulfilled, and my efforts have not been in vain.
Although the order of 30 million taels of silver seems incomparable to the Egyptian Canal, which has a market value of hundreds of millions, everyone who understands economics understands it.
The virtual market value is just the market value, and it has no driving effect on the real economy. The listed companies in later generations are worth tens or hundreds of billions each, but their annual operating income may only be several billions or tens of billions. It seems, as for the profit, it is even lower.
An order of 30 million taels of silver is an order of real money, and it is also a huge order. It can fill up the Miyun Arsenal in one go.
"There are tens of thousands of muskets, a hundred artillery pieces, and tens of thousands of sets of armors and weapons. Although the quantity is not bad, compared with the annual production volume of the arsenal, it is only two or three months' output.
Since ancient times, the business of arms and weapons has been a business with huge profits. If you just sell three melons and two dates, you will get your money back, and the rest is profit.
Thirty million taels of silver orders can drive the development of steel factories, mechanical processing factories, handicraft workshops, leather workshops, transportation and logistics and other industries.
For the economy of the Ming Dynasty, it makes no sense whether it is a powerful injection of living water, or a very profitable one. All links and industries can profit from it, enough to feed a large population.
It can also allow many factories, workshops, etc. to update new machines and equipment to maintain technological leadership. This is why the bald eagles of later generations are very keen on selling arms.
Making money is one aspect, but more importantly, it can benefit many industries and fields, create a large number of jobs, and at the same time update its own arms and weapon technology, and always maintain its leading edge. It can be said that there are many benefits.
¡°I must ask His Majesty for a few days of paid leave. The weekends during this period have been spent visiting various places with Ali Pasha.¡±
Sitting on his four-wheeled carriage, Liu Jin was thinking about how to ask Emperor Hongzhi for leave.
Back at his house, Liu Jin was about to be lazy. It was already ten o'clock and he was on a business trip. He wouldn't go to work today and would stay at home to take care of his baby.
With their unremitting efforts, Li Zhen and Xu Waner became pregnant again. There were more children, and the house was very lively. However, Liu Jin was usually too busy and did not have much time to spend time with the little one. This made Liu Jin I feel like I am not a qualified baby daddy.
"Lao Liu~Lao Liu~"
At this time, Zhu Houzhao's voice came, and it could be heard that this guy was very excited, as if there was something happy.
"If this guy doesn't study electricity and magnetism well, why did he come here to find me?"
"Could it be that there has been a breakthrough and progress in electromagnetic technology?"
Liu Jin was speechless for a while. Just when he was about to be lazy, this guy came.
Zhu Houzhao is a genius. After the train came out, Liu Jin deliberately guided him to study electromagnetic technology. Once this breakthrough can be achieved, electricity will be available and wireless technology can also be developed.
Once wireless technology is developed, it will be very important to the Ming Dynasty. No matter how large the vast territory is, it will not be afraid of it. It can control everywhere anytime and anywhere.
Liu Jin does not expect this guy to be able to develop other advanced technologies soon. He just needs to develop radios, so as to facilitate the exchange of confidence between various places.
The land area is so large that the exchange of information is too slow.
"It shouldn't be that fast, right?"
"In just a short time, he has figured out that magnetism generates electricity and electricity generates magnetism. Is there any big breakthrough that can be made?"
Liu Jin carefully thought about the primitive technologies related to electromagnetism and felt that it would be impossible for Zhu Houzhao to develop any results so quickly.
"Lao Liu~Lao Liu~"
While thinking, Zhu Houzhao had already arrived at Liu Jin's study.
This guy doesn¡¯t regard himself as an outsider at all. Every time he comes, he goes straight to the study. In the past, when Liu Jin was not married, he would go straight to Liu Jin¡¯s room.
"Your Highness~"
Liu Jin quickly stood up and said respectfully.
"No need, no need~"
Zhu Houzhao waved his hand to indicate that there was no need to be polite and accepted.bsp; ¡°He¡¯s a younger brother, not a younger sister~¡±
When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he immediately curled his lips and said.
He must not want a sister. If she is a sister, she will definitely not be able to play with her. She will definitely not like military affairs, machinery, and research. He is better as a younger brother. If he is unhappy, he can also give her a spanking.
"Okay, okay, it's my younger brother~"
Liu Jin smiled and said.
"I'm worried too~"
"My mother is already thirty-five. The risk of giving birth to a child at such an old age is really too great. But now that she has one, she must be born. I also want a younger brother, and my father and mother will definitely like to have one." A younger brother."
Zhu Houzhao said with a sigh.
"It is perfectly normal to have children at the age of thirty-five in future generations. There are a lot of children at the age of forty, but they are indeed considered advanced maternal age. Medical technology is advanced in future generations, so there is nothing to worry about.
But this is the Ming Dynasty, and there are indeed many things to worry about. The key is that Queen Zhang has not been pregnant for more than ten years. Now she is pregnant again, and she is still an advanced maternal age. It is no wonder that Zhu Houzhao is both happy and worried, so hurriedly Come find yourself.
