Chapter 560 A fire in winter
By mid-February, there was no good news on Goryeo, but a lot of news was delivered to Wang Rong within the Song Dynasty.
The first aspect is that deflation is easing, and the unsold materials in Damingfu are recovering moderately.
This is because after the railway bonds issued by Dalun were successful, the money was invested in a planned manner specifically to feed back to the industry and agriculture of Damingfu, which is the legendary "export tax rebate". This stabilized the added value of the industry, and no factory stopped production and no workers were unemployed.
Profits have shrunk significantly, but doing business requires experiencing storms, just stabilize it.
Then Zhao Yunxi opened a vault after returning, and mobilized two special trains from Bianjing to inject liquidity into Daming Mansion.
The specific operation method is very simple. Dalian told her to be a shopping spree and buy with her eyes closed. Just buy the unsold materials in Daming Mansion. You don’t even have to use the goods, just use them as futures and just hold the bills in your hand.
Since someone bought it, the price fell and stopped. Once the factory supplies were taken away, they would have cash flow turnover after they earned the silver and copper coins given by Zhao Yunxi, and the temporarily owed wages were also paid to the workers.
After cooperating with the propaganda offensive and cracking down on pills, wages were settled and prices began to rise, so the workers who received the money spent again.
This is probably the reason, you can live your life all the way.
Seeing that it had stabilized, it would definitely win, but it had a trend reversal, and it was a good fight. Cao Ji became even more fierce and opened the Coal Communications Bank's treasury to transport three special trains of silver and copper coins into Daming Mansion to acquire "futures".
Now it is only the early stage of recovery. The cheap materials on the ground are cost-effective. As long as you live and return to normal prices, you will not only have a good reputation for taking over the country, but also make a lot of money.
Cao Ji has entered the market, one by one, and the liquidity has become more stable.
Of course, this is only temporary. I don’t know how long it can last, and eventually we will establish a silver trade with Japan.
At the current development speed, Japanese silver cannot hold on for a few years. But the most important thing is the gimmick. As long as the Song army lives up to expectations and gains the East China Sea trade hegemony and fully controls the silver trade line, this gimmick is everyone's confidence.
At that time, the whole country would think that the Song Dynasty had a stable and reliable source of silver, which was credibility. At that time, paper money would develop rapidly and gain rapid recognition from the whole country and the whole world, and they all began to slowly take up the economic chariot of the Song Dynasty.
From beginning to end, paper money is the government’s debt to the world, and it is also possible to call it IOU. The key to debt lies in the ability to repay.
Now everyone has no confidence in the government and does not understand it, so they have to endorse it with silver and promise that the banknotes they hold can be cashed into silver at any time. Then they can run.
But this is definitely a false proposition. Just like the Federal Reserve in later generations who eventually cheated on "US dollar" and turned "US dollar", the word US dollar was because the earliest US dollar could be exchanged from the Federal Reserve to promised gold.
But sooner or later, there will be no real money and silver repayment one day. At that time, we will have to endorse the silver and transform it into endorsement of productivity. This is the truth of money.
Currency is a medium, and its ultimate goal is to buy the materials that people want. At the same time, it is also the government's debt to the world. The coin holder handes the banknotes to the government, and as long as the government can provide the materials, it will be considered as redemption.
So as long as there is productivity, the theoretically local currency will not cross. The essence of the dollar dominance is that it had dominant industrial capabilities at that time, and could have 5,000 strategic bombers bombed Japan indiscriminately, and more than 100,000 fighter jets were used to fight against the Soviet Union. Such an industrial foundation could certainly make the dollar dominate, which was a natural result. However, when the industry was drunk and moved out and wanted to maintain the hegemony of the dollar, of course, he would have to rely on evil means and all kinds of tricks would occur.
Later generations of pill parties always like to use gold and US dollars as targets, and always like to compare the local currency collapse situation of rabbit houses with some Southeast Asian garbage countries or African garbage countries, which makes people laugh.
Those garbage countries are really "poor because they are lazy". Their local currency collapses not because they don't have gold dollars. If they have the same urinary nature, no matter how much gold dollars are, they will use up. Their real problem is that they have no "productivity".
The industrial scale of rabbits is equal to the United States, Yin Emperor, France, Germany and Japan. There is still a margin for them, and the Earth is the most complete. So unless it is divided by nuclear, theoretically, the rabbit's local currency will not collapse before they collapse.
So these are the routes of the Great Sect. Fujiwara's silver is just a symbol, a painting cake. Through this medicine, the implementation of the Song Dynasty paper currency was successfully completed. As long as the manufacturing industry is maintained, the paper currency would not collapse. Given that Asia naturally used the Song Dynasty copper coins during this period, with the help of this inertia, they would slowly accept the "Song Knife".
Well, Europe and India are a bit difficult, and they are too large. So they need the support of imperialism. The more powerful the Song Dynasty navy will be in the future, the higher their acceptance of the Song sword will be. This is complementary. The naval fleet determines the ownership of trade rights, and trade rights determines the sovereignty of currency.
This is good news and vision for staying in this depressing period of Goryeo.
The second good news is that the second generation of gasoline engines have begun mass production, and the architecture is only a minor change, which mainly makes up for many defects, but the process has been greatly improved.
The design capabilities of the Song Dynasty are still relatively weak now, but the craftsmanship foundation is really strong. After the first generation of tests, the second generation of gasoline engines were crazy about increasing the thrust-weight ratio by 50%.
Such a terrifying improvement has nothing to do with the architectural design. It all depends on new materials and is a pure process improvement.
When I read this industrial newspaper, Dalun almost thought that he had encountered exaggeration, so he sprayed out a mouthful of tea.
The compression ratio has reached about 1 to 7. This parameter is very important. As long as the stability passes, this generation of machines already has the ability to push the aircraft into the sky.
Of course, the conditions for use are still very strict, and you can only fly at low altitude and use it if you have the conditions. After taking off, you will face the higher the air, the thinner it will be. Without air, you will not burn. This is the essence. It is a cold mixed ratio. If you want to climb the height, it will not only be a problem of no power, but will lead to backward machines stopping. However, with the current technology, once the aircraft is shut down, it will not be started, which is directly the result of the crash.
Of course, these are just the ideas of the layman Dalian. For details, they have to wait for the Beijing Aircraft Manufacturing Factory to conduct slow public relations and tests.
Now we can fly very sure, but the range, the full load mass, the speed and other issues need to be tested and traded.
In view of this, the always calm Dalian also became bloody in the Goryeo Inn. He immediately ordered Shen Kuo with the reputation of the Industrial Department: to urge the internal combustion engine factory to convert the results into the aviation version as soon as possible, dig deep into the technology and materials, and climb to the magic version as much as possible. The 201 Institute immediately integrated resources and developed a large range, small speed, and large load and low-altitude strategic bomber.
This instruction is probably able to make Shen Kuo jump, but the big devil doesn’t care about that much, and it will be difficult and impossible to know. The current wind tunnel scale can only test ultra-small aircraft, but given the birth of a new brain-hole motor, as long as there is power supply, the output is not a problem, so the 201 Institute can bypass the medium-sized wind tunnel and directly launch a wind tunnel that can test a 10,000-jin aircraft.
The cold is a bit cold. The total mass of a mere five tons can be called a strategic bomber in the Song Dynasty. But take it slowly, this generation of aviation engines continues to dig deeper. As long as the fuselage material, strength, and weight are balanced after choosing, loading four or six engines and reducing the speed, it is theoretically worthy of long-range bombers.
Speed is a transformer, especially low-altitude high-resistance aircraft. Reducing the speed can basically solve all problems and take off.
Of course, for now, the strength of the body after controlling the weight really needs to be handled in a basic way, which is even more difficult to handle than the engine. However, Shen Kuo and his team have accumulated a lot of design and material technology when building small aircraft, so they should be able to eat it. It must be possible.
It is said that it is long-range, but the first-generation bomber can take off from Dengzhou Air Force Base and radiate to the Bohai Sea and the Korean Peninsula, so Dalian is satisfied.
In short, within six to eight years, the second-generation strategic bomber will take off from the Beijing Air Force Base and can carry five tons of incendiary bombs to bomb the Liao Kingdom, or the Heian Kyoto, Japan. If you can do this, you will not be vulgar enough and not a big hooligan.
The third good news is that 701 under the Industrial Department are established, which is dedicated to geological surveying and mineral surveying. At the same time, the third and fourth non-Confucian university in the Song Dynasty were established in Peking University and Beijing Institute of Technology. It has a variety of majors in aviation, navigation, machinery, physics, chemistry, mathematics, etc.
However, the Industrial Department did not conduct the major of geology and mineral surveying, so it chose to establish a junior college affiliated to the Coal College in Bianjing. Because Cao Ji's resource advantages, data channel experience, etc. in this regard are unmatched by the Industrial Department. Therefore, the 701 Institute was naturally located in Bianjing.
In short, the Industrial Department is becoming more and more like a monster. It has already had a tendency to be Tyrannosaurus Rex and has begun to get involved in all areas. Who told them to implement the legal system? The "Industrial Regulations" at that time are now the hammer hanging on their heads, which is the national law they unanimously passed.
The fifth good news is even more shocking: Xu Langshan’s fourth-generation steam engine was successfully tested and has been finalized and will soon enter mass production.
In fact, it is no longer the fourth generation. Because it is a brand new architecture, it should be called a "steam turbine".
Such improvement is no longer linear or subversive. This generation of steam turbines no longer burn coal, but heavy oil. This is due to Chen Fan, who was involved in "theft secrets" and later protected by Dalian. The oil industry of their 401 institutes is progressing smoothly, greatly improving oil utilization and developing heavy oil fuel.
In addition to the oil refinery's official profit, it also forced steam turbines to be produced.
Xu Langshan really felt that the so-called fourth-level excavability was really not very good, so he did not design it for a long time. After all, Xu Langshan is not as naughty as Intel, and it is not like a generation of products that can't change the vest and squeeze a little toothpaste.
Therefore, based on the new achievements of 401, Lao Xu wanted to use a high-energy-density fuel vehicle. He developed a steam turbine based on the cheapest heavy oil characteristics and previous design accumulation.
For this reason, he also sued the internal combustion engine factory. The internal combustion engine factory said that Xu Langshan stole some design ideas for gasoline engines. He was quarreling in the lobby of the Industrial Department. Later, Xu Langshan retorted and said, "Damn, you internal combustion engine factories are all built by me. The technical workers who were seconded from our factory to participate in the start. There is no stealing, but we have a natural idea."
Sweat, no matter whether they are ripped or not, this is a milestone. There is nothing wrong with this process, it was really done by them themselves.
At this point, the Industrial Department basically stopped the research and development and investment of coal-burning steam engines, and only worked hard to produce the three-generation steam engine magic revisions. It was a familiar way and the output increased significantly.
This is because the scale of the oil industry is still limited and the coal industry is still the pillar, so the third-generation magical version of the coal burning machine will still be maintained for a long time. The steam turbine will not be widely used for the time being. Some designs will be modified and the naval version will be manufactured to supply the power system of the first-generation frigate.
This is definitely good news. With steam turbines, the first-generation frigate in Dengzhou Shipyard does not need to be redesigned, so it maintains a small tonnage change, abandons the gasoline engine, and chooses the entire power system from Xu Langshan.
The newspaper said that when the test run was successful, Xu Langshan took a train and rushed to Dengzhou Shipyard for public relations, hoping to get the order for naval frigate and let the internal combustion engine factory and Caoji's transmission factory rest aside.
Well... Lao Xu was too excited. If he didn't go to public relations, Dalian would support him with administrative orders.
In any case, Xu Langshan's machines are more reliable. Dalian, who personally participated in the sea trial, has had enough of Cao Ji's counterfeit goods. It's embarrassing to say that Dalian itself is also the major shareholder of the coal yard. For a long time, the coal yard was mentioned as "Dalian Manufacturing". Later, my uncle replaced it with the "Caoji Brand" in order to maintain his prestige within the company.
The technician of Dengzhou Shipyard who was accompanying the ship analyzed that it was possible that the coal yard transmission system was dragged down, which caused the four sets of engines to stop.
Otherwise, no matter what, the probability of parking the four-machine is very small. The first generation of internal combustion engines has indeed many problems, but major defects have not been discovered for the time being. At least, although the failure rate of thousands of agricultural tractors in Damingfu is not good-looking, it has not yet appeared that there are no common defects and faults.
So these ragged things are probably caused by Cao Jihui and the internal combustion engine factory to blame each other.
But in principle, the internal combustion engine factory will win because the arbitration institution for the lawsuit is the Industry Department, which is also the biological son of the Industry Department. Unless it is found that the internal combustion engine factory has sudden and serious negligence and causes defects in the supply navy batch, it will be useless. It would be fine if the turtle son was not caught and locked up, and he almost caused the great devil to starve to death at sea.
At the same time, this incident also sounded a wake-up call for Dengzhou Shipyard: it is not necessary to ask for new things to be fast, but still follow the route of Dalian to stabilize and tolerate grass and to be cheap and easy to use. This is especially true for military use.
This is also good, so that these issues must be straightened out before the war and before the first generation of frigates were put into service. Therefore, the first gasoline engine verification ship was considered a failure, but it also has great significance and has accumulated a lot of experience and experience. Next, after a minor design modification, the full set of powertrains from Xu Langshan's family will be selected.
