Chapter 623 Negotiations Failed

Tao Jiefu said again: "Hurry up, bring the weapons made from the new technology to me to see?"

Gao Fangping opened his eyes and said nonsense, shook his hand and said, "No, no, no, the prime minister misunderstood, there are no weapons. We are operating a new agricultural tool production line. After all, the official is wise and has never liked military affairs. It is the right way to work the farmer..."

After endlessly speaking, Tao Jiefu had a palm on the back of his head.

"You just know that my youngest son has learned this with you with your eyes." Tao Jiefu pointed to the sand mold that he had not had time to clean up and said, "This is a mold, and my son loves to tinker with these things the most. Do you think I don't understand? In addition, the shape of this mold is a cast knife no matter how you look at it. Do you dare to tell me that it is a farm tool, and I have never used a knife to bully me? When I led the army to fight, you were still playing with shit and urinating under the protection of Gao Qiu."

Gao Fangping had to say awkwardly: "Your Majesty, after you said this, my nephew really remembered it. He accidentally made some weapons or something..."

"Stop talking nonsense, take it out and take a look." Tao Jiefu interrupted.

So, Gao Fangping just took the standard weapon for the experiment and then brought it over.

The second phase has not been processed yet, so it has not opened the front and looks very ugly, like a rag.

Lao Tao frowned. But he frowned not because he looked ugly, but because after feeling it in his hand, as an expert, Lao Tao certainly knew that it was much lighter than the ordinary imperial guards' weapons. It seemed that he had cut corners?

"Just this garbage, you dare to say that your manufacturing process is awesome. By the way, it is not a secret that you, Gao Fangping, want to devour military spending, but at least you are more beautiful and cut corners to this point. You are so light, aren't you afraid of being stabbed by someone?" Lao Tao said, dancing huhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Immediately scared away a group of people, including Gao Fangping, for fear of being injured by accident. He was wearing armor and others didn't wear it.

Gao Fangping hid behind Liang Hongying and said worriedly: "Prime Minister, be careful, don't dodge your waist."

"Nothing nonsense, you were still playing house when I led my troops to fight. How could I hurt me in a small scene? Ouch..."

As Lao Tao said that, he threw the knife and covered his waist and climbed onto the wall. However, he later counted the responsibility on the head of the "pocket watch" in his chest. He said that the pocket watch would destroy the balance.

"Why are you still standing there? Why don't you send the Prime Minister's daughter's body to the Imperial Hospital? Are you still waiting to receive the reward?" Gao Fangping said quickly.

"Go away, this little thing will not hurt me." Tao Jiefu still didn't plan to leave, took off the wall clock, hung it on Gao Fangping's neck temporarily, and said, "I will send it to the mansion tomorrow and return it to me for the time being."

Then, Lao Tao pulled out the knife at his waist and selected a strong man on the scene and said, "You are responsible for using my husband's knife to fight with this knife to let me watch the performance."

Lao Tao's sword is not a treasure sword, it is very old, like a cultural relic, and there are still many gaps. I heard that he used this sword to show off all day long, saying that this was an ordinary weapon that followed him in battle.

Ding Ding Ding

The test slash began, and for a moment, Mars flew everywhere.

Finally, it stopped at some point and there were many gaps between each other, but compared to the bottom, of course, Gao Fangping had more gaps in weapons and Tao Jiefu had fewer.

Others felt a little embarrassed, but Lao Tao had already opened his mouth halfway.

Although Lao Tao's is not a treasure knife, it is a veteran weapon produced when the bureaucratic team was relatively honest. It is a model for officers, and the materials and forging technology are very sufficient. It is not comparable to those of today's defective goods.

In Lao Tao's opinion, the young profiteering business is much worse than before, and the officials' appearance is much worse than before. The degree of cutting corners is naturally much worse than before, which may be thanks to Cai Jing.

But what was shocked was that Gao Fangping's weapons seemed to be lighter than those of other profiteers and cut corners, but they were "weapons for conscience" whose performance had been catching up with the old era.

"This..." After a long time, Tao Jiefu replied to his spirit: "What is the truth? You are so tall that you can tell me."

Gao Fangping said: "This is the awesomeness of new materials, so this is why the officials are cautious and strictly keep the confidentiality system."

Tao Jiefu nodded repeatedly and said, "Not bad, if this technology falls into the hands of the barbarian, my Hanwa will be in danger."

Gao Fangping said: "It's not that serious. It's just that the whole set of technology is handed over to them. They still lack too many things. It's not that they will have it right away if they want to build it. The officials just want to make this technology ahead of time and maintain some more years."

Tao Jiefu didn't understand these things. Anyway, he only thought that this was the secret book of the Song Dynasty, and it would be over if it was leaked. So he issued another strict orders to strengthen management, saying that it had been listed as the most military secret of the Song Dynasty. Without his and Zhang Shuye's approval, no military person could come in to observe.

Then, Tao Jiefu licked his lips and said, "Xiao Gao, tell me that in addition to making weapons, can this chain mail be made on me?"

Gao Fangping thought for a while and said, "Yes, just modify the production line and slowly match it. After the production line is completed, once the workers are familiar with the process, they use casting methods. Even if they use new materials, the cost will be lower than that of the lean chain mail, but the output will be much larger."

Tao Jiefu became even more excited. He thought about it mentally. The Yongle Army's heavy cavalry changed into clothes for more than a year, and he even spent countless money. It hurts so much, so he asked: "How much can the output increase?"

Gao Fangping said: "Return to Xiangye, it is estimated that under the premise of investing as much manpower and material resources, the performance is not inferior to too much, and the cost will be reduced by four floors and the output will be increased by four floors."

"So amazing!" Tao Jiefu exclaimed.

Gao Fangping laughed and said, "This is still the present. The current Jiangnan Shipbuilding Institute is under the leadership of your youngest son to tackle the steam engine. If the turbine test run is successful and officially applied, it can convert heat energy to kinetic energy. At that time, there are many places in the entire production process, and the mechanical energy can be replaced. With the cost not increasing, you are sure to triple the output."

After a pause, he said: "This is a snowball process. With more orders of turbines, it will inevitably trigger the improvement of technology and efficiency. The cost of turbines is reduced, so he will continue to promote the further expansion of military production capacity and significantly reduce the cost. Give me ten to fifteen years. I use my head to guarantee that I can withstand the pressure of going to war on the whole world at the same time."

Tao Jiefu almost fell to the ground when he couldn't stand firmly.

This is simply a subversion of a fantasy, which is different from all traditional wars. It is completely a comparison of who has a big smog and whose chimney is crazy.

If this is true, Tao Jiefu thought he would be a prime minister at that time, and then he would go to the front line to lead troops and experience the battlefield where hundreds of thousands of members reinstalled together, it would be clearly a bulldozer.

The Han generals who were really hit by the barbarians had no dreams of that kind of scene. There were indeed no cavalry in the Song Dynasty, and heavy infantry armor was born for this, but due to productivity, there were so many troops in the Song Dynasty, but less than two thousand infantry armors were in service. The performance was not very good, and it was a giant beast of gold swallowing. At least the price from the Ministry of War factory could scare the ministers of the Ministry of Revenue to death, and also scare Gao Qiu's father to death.

"Subversion!" Tao Jiefu said with a pale face, "I think of my Ministry of War. It takes dozens of people and dozens of processes to make a set of military equipment, and it takes more than ten days. You don't have to rely on the equipment of ordinary soldiers. It is inefficient and expensive. The current hundreds of thousands of imperial guards' equipment is what I have accumulated over a hundred years. If you follow your Xiao Gao's idea, it doesn't mean that we are all behind. In just eight to ten years, you can use military expenses that are lower than the current ones to complete the entire dressing change?"

Gao Fangping clasped his fists and said, "Yes, I can do it. But there is a premise that I was not caught by the villains who depended on the interests of the Ministry of War to hang the street lamp. Secondly, the steam engine project led by your child will not be harassed by anyone until it succeeds. Otherwise, I will wash my butts and wait for the barbarians to be turned over."

"I am still surprised by the group of killing talents in the Ministry of War. They have been making trouble these days, why are they making trouble?" Tao Jiefu realized it later and said with his beard, "It turns out that it is still a matter of money. I dare to destroy innovation and progress for the sake of money. I want to report to the officials and sue these people for their malpractice!"

Gao Fangping didn't know whether he was really stupid or pretending to be stupid. He was probably pretending to be stupid, so he clasped his fists and said, "Prime Minister calm down. We must have a main complaint. The official dared to ask who do you want to sue?"

"This..." Tao Jiefu was so cunning that he was thinking about his beard.

It seems that Lao Tao is really pretending to be stupid and deliberately used this method to dispel Gao Fangping's idea of ​​biting people and acting like a good person.

This shows that there are too many people who are dividing the military interest chain and are too large. Tao Jiefu doesn't want to interfere at all.

Gao Fangping smiled again and said, "The Prime Minister understands what the Prime Minister means. At present, you cannot reform easily. The official does not like military affairs, so he asks him to mention these issues to seek a draw. Therefore, the Prime Minister does not seek to clear them or start a war with them. The Prime Minister only hopes to participate as a competitor and get a part of the small orders with them. Since it is not a battle to grab territory, the Prime Minister needs to take the lead."

Tao Jiefu thought for a while and smiled and said, "In the position of my husband and uncle Ye, the court must spend so much military expenditure. A group of wild dogs are waiting for the share and always give it. Then theorize a certain proportion to you, as long as it is a small amount, and you promise not to further compete with them until now, and there should be no war."

After a pause, Tao Jiefu shook his head and said, "But in the end I want to reject you. It's not that I need these economic benefits, but that this issue is too sensitive and can easily bring about political upheaval. In addition, what I am most worried about is that you are crazy and have too many previous records. No one believes that you will be gentle in pork and only want a little order. Everyone knows that your appetite will be enlarged. So let's take a shower and go to bed for the time being, this is definitely a minefield."

At this point, Gao Fangping was depressed. Lao Tao was treacherous and he didn't let go. In fact, this time it was Gao Fangping who deliberately released the news to let Lao Tao hear the "new weapon", which attracted him to watch.

The purpose is to let Tao Jiefu, the prime minister who truly understands military affairs, come forward to deal with it. At the same time, there should be a small part of the interests, but he doesn't want to hit a wall.

Now it's a big trouble.

If this part of the order is used for production, the cost of new materials can be quickly reduced. The most important thing is that Gao Fangping's subordinates have successfully maintained the "army production line" and always maintain the activation state of this model and the structure of the technical backbone. When necessary, expand the production line and the extensive explosive production capacity will be quickly, and there will be no short-term crazy or omissions in the conversion of civilians to military production capacity.

However, it seems that this plan has to be considered another way. You can't talk to the emperor about this matter, you can only start with Tao Jiefu...
