"Please hurry up, sir. I don't know, sir, what kind of experiment did you just do?" King Qin asked.
"Back to your majesty, I just did the experiment with electric motors and lead-acid batteries, and I was rude to the princess just now. I really have no choice. This lead-acid battery uses a large amount of sulfuric acid. This sulfuric acid is very corrosive. Once the human body Contaminated. The skin will dehydrate very quickly and there will be a strong burning sensation. It is extremely dangerous," Shangwen said.
212 The burden is heavy and difficult to travel far
"Stingy, isn't it because I'm afraid that I will break things for you?" Ying Yu said dissatisfied.
"Princess's words are wrong." Shang Wen said seriously.
"Look." Shangwen immediately took a small bottle of sulfuric acid, poured out a little, and it flowed on the table. The wooden table immediately started to make a "chi chi" sound, and then started to smoke.
Naofumi immediately treated with a damp rag.
"You see, princess. This is sulfuric acid. Its corrosiveness is not as strong as usual." Shang Wen said.
"Bring it here, let me see." Ying Yu immediately shouted to play with sulfuric acid.
"No nonsense." King Qin reprimanded.When Shangwen heard this, he felt that the princess was too bold.I have already done such an experiment, and I dare to play like this.
The princess stepped back a little dissatisfied.
"Princess, this sulfuric acid is no small matter. It is definitely not something to play with. If you are not careful, you will be in danger of your life." Shang Wen said.
"Yu'er, do you understand?" King Qin asked immediately.
"Understood." Ying Yu said dissatisfied.
Shangwen felt that the things in his laboratory should be kept strictly.It can't be left in such a mess.With the disposition of this mischievous princess, she will definitely find ways to get sulfuric acid.Then there was an accident.Ten of my own heads might not be enough to chop off.
In fact, Ying Yu was thinking so.She wanted to take advantage of Shangwen not paying attention now.Get your hands on it now and take a look.play for fun.There are so many new and eccentric things about this guy.There are so many.Although a little weaker.But the melon seeds in the head are not ordinary smart.Ying Yu is planning how to steal sulfuric acid.
"Haven't you asked me what these things are?" King Qin asked.
"My lord, these are electric motors, generators." Shang Wen pointed out one by one.
"Mr. Qin, why does the room smell so strong of alcohol?" King Qin asked.In fact, King Qin smelled it before he entered the door.However, King Qin thought that this was an experiment Shangwen was doing.
"Go back to the king, the minister is refining the alcoholic essence." Shang Wen said, pointing to the place where the alcoholic essence is divided.
"Oh, let me take a look." King Qin said curiously.
But Ying Yu quietly approached the table where the sulfuric acid was placed.Quickly take the small bottle of sulfuric acid in your hand.Then he quickly put his hands behind his back.
On the other side, Shangwen explained the principles of the fractionation tower and distillation in detail to King Qin, and at the same time showed King Qin the alcohol obtained.
King Qin asked such a question. "Can the widow have a taste of this wine?"
Shangwen was a little speechless. He refined alcohol by himself, but it greatly stimulated some people's desire to drink.
"This, this." Shangwen said with some embarrassment.
"Why, you don't want to." King Qin asked.
"Your Majesty, the purity of this wine is very high. As high as 90.00%. If you don't mix it with distilled water, just drink it like this." Shang Wen said with some embarrassment.
"Hehe. The widow is making a little joke with Mr. Qin. It's just a little joke." King Qin said hahaha on purpose.
Shang Wen also breathed a sigh of relief.I thought of it in my heart.According to King Qin's personality, it is estimated that there is a strong tendency to drink alcohol in Qin.I don't need to do chemical experiments, as long as I open a winery every day, I can make a fortune.
"My Daqin's grain is used for military use, and this wine making is very expensive." King Qin said.
"Your Majesty, I understand." Shang Wen said.
"Mr. is used for experiments and for the benefit of our Great Qin. Except for Mr. Qin." King Qin said.
"Thank you, my lord, for your kindness." Shang Wen cupped his hands and said.
"That's right. There is still one thing I don't understand." King Qin said.
"Come on, let's go out and have a talk. The smell of wine makes me unable to concentrate on listening to Mr. Qin." King Qin said, pointing to the outside of the house.
Shangwen cupped his hands to signal.
"I don't understand why sir transferred the production line for producing muskets?" King Qin said.
"Your Majesty, this is a last resort. At present, the arsenal is extremely large. Most of it is of a research and development nature, and the main products produced are artillery and quilts." Shang Wen said.
"These things are mainly used by the military. And the arsenal costs a lot of money." Shang Wen said.
"I understand." King Qin suddenly understood Shang Wen's thoughts.The king of Qin never regarded the arsenal as a private enterprise, but as the arsenal of Daqin, providing funds according to the government's ration every month.However, Shangwen's arsenal expanded rapidly with limited funds.From the airship workshop.Go to the artillery workshop.Shangwen immediately established the embryonic form of several industry sectors.
However, the lack of funds has become a major bottleneck restricting Shangwen's current development.King Qin did not know about Shangwen's financial situation.But what is certain is that Shangwen was able to transfer a production line for this purpose.
"Your Majesty, what I want to say is that it is difficult to change the current situation by relying on the strength of one person. No matter how powerful I am, I cannot build a huge industrial base. This requires multiple factors." Shang Wen said.
"The first is to encourage those who have funds to invest in building factories. Expand the scale of production. Then quickly occupy the market. Only in this way can we ensure that we have absolute strength. And for these, taxation must be liberalized. This tax reform must be planned in advance to promote Its development." Shangwen said pleadingly.
"Taxation. What does this have to do with taxation?" King Qin asked puzzled.
"Maybe your majesty will understand when you say this," Shang Wen said.
"It seems that I have lost a production line. In fact, it is not the case. I still have a certain profit. For this production line, I have to pay a lot of workers' wages to maintain the operation of the workers. In this way, the cost will rise sharply. This Although a production line is profitable, it is also a burden, just like a person who constantly picks up the burden on the ground. The more you go, the more burden you have. The burden eventually becomes an obstacle.”
"After this production line is transferred out, I only need to process the parts and sell them to the other party. The other party only needs to hire people to process and pay for the parts. In this way, I saved a lot of wages, which is a fortune. Earned money, and at the same time sold a large number of parts and components. There is another income, so the incoming and outgoing, isn't the minister making a profit?"
"I only need to maintain one production line, and I don't need to maintain too many workers. This is industrial upgrading." Shang Wen said.
"It's quite interesting to listen to Mr. Qin's business experience." King Qin said.
"The king's taxes are the same. It's just that the king's burden is too heavy, and he can't go far." Shang Wen said with his head bowed.
"What?" King Qin said in surprise.
"The king's burden is too heavy, he can't go far." Shang Wen repeated.
"This tax is the king's burden. Only by reforming the tax can the king go far and fast." Shang Wen said respectfully.Shangwen no longer wants to be evasive.Instead of talking around the corner, it is better to face the problem directly.Put forward suggestions for correction.
213 Reformers Need Courage
"Yes, the burden is my Great Qin's burden on the road to prosperity." Shang Wen said.
"Your Majesty, I will continue to publicize things about capital around you. Your Majesty may have heard of my thoughts, but I don't know that my actions will help you achieve eternal achievements." Shang Wen said solemnly .
"As far as taxes are concerned, the taxes collected by Daqin are still corvée, in kind. Property. There are various collection methods. They are not collected in a unified form of currency." Shang Wen put forward his own opinion.
"According to you, we can protect our Great Qin by collecting money uniformly?" King Qin asked back.
"Not only can it be protected, but it can also make Daqin move towards the hegemony of the myriad worlds, and it can also make our people in Daqin live better." Shang Wen replied directly.
