Chapter 212: Hard to travel far with heavy burdens

"Stingy, isn't it just for fear that my palace will ruin you?" Yingyu said dissatisfiedly.

"The princess's words are bad." Shang Wen said solemnly.

"Look at it." Shang Wen immediately took a small bottle of sulfuric acid, poured out a little, and poured it on the case table. The wooden case table immediately began to make a "chichi" sound, and then began to smoke.

Shangwen immediately treated it with a damp cloth.

"You see, princess. This is sulfuric acid. Its corrosiveness is not so strong." Shang Wen said.

"Come here, let me see." Yingyu immediately shouted that he would take the sulfuric acid to play.

"No nonsense." King Qin scolded. When Shang Wen heard this, he felt that the princess was too bold. I have done such an experiment, and I dare to play like this.

The princess stepped aside in dissatisfaction.

"Princess, this sulfuric acid is not a trivial matter. It is definitely not a plaything. If you are not careful, you will be worried about your life." Shang Wen said.

"Yu'er, do you understand?" King Qin asked immediately.

"Understood." Yingyu said dissatisfied.

Shang Wen felt that the things in his laboratory should be kept strictly. It can't be left in such a mess. With the nature of this mischievous princess, she would definitely find ways to make sulfuric acid. Then there was an accident. It is estimated that ten heads of oneself are not enough to cut.

In fact, Yingyu thinks so. She wanted to take advantage of Shang Wen's attention now. Take a look immediately. play for fun. This guy has too many weird things. It's too much. Although the text is a little weak. But the brain seeds are not ordinary clever. Yingyu is planning how to steal sulfuric acid.

"I haven't asked Mr. What are these?" King Qin asked.

"Back to the king, these are motors and generators." Shang Wen pointed out one by one.

"Why does Mr. Qin smell such a big wine in the house?" King Qin asked. In fact, King Qin smelled it before he even entered the door. However, King Qin believed that this was an experiment that Shang Wen was doing.

"Back to the king, Chen is refining alcohol." Shang Wen said, pointing to the place where the alcohol was fractionated.

"Oh, take a look at the widow." King Qin said curiously.

However, Yingyu quietly approached the table where the sulfuric acid was placed. Quickly took the small bottle of sulfuric acid in his hand. Then quickly put his hands behind his back.

On the other side, Shang Wen told King Qin about the principle of the fractionation tower and rectification, and showed him the alcohol he obtained.

King Qin asked such a sentence. "Can a widow have a taste of this wine?"

Shang Wen was a little speechless, and refined alcohol by himself, but it greatly stimulated some people's desire to drink.

"This, this." Shang Wen said embarrassedly.

"Why, not willing." King Qin asked.

"My lord, the purity of this alcohol is very high. As high as 99%. If you don't blend distilled water, just drink it like this." Shang Wen said with some embarrassment.

"Hehe. The widow made a little joke with Mr. Qin. It's just a little joke." King Qin deliberately hahaha said.

Shang Wen also breathed a sigh of relief. But thought of it in my heart. According to the character of King Qin, it is estimated that Qin also has a strong drinking style. You don't need to do chemistry experiments yourself, as long as you open a winery every day, you can make a fortune.

"My Daqin's grain is used for military purposes. This wine is very expensive." King Qin said.

"My lord, the minister understands." Shang Wen said.

"Mr. is used in the experiment, is for my benefit, Da Qin. Except Mr. Qin." Qin Wang said.

"Xie Wangshang's love." Shang Wen said with his hands.

"Right. The widow still doesn't understand one thing." King Qin said.

"Go, let's go out and talk. Smell the smell of the wine, I can't make the widows listen to the husband's words." King Qin pointed to the outside of the house and said.

Shang Wen gestured.

"I don't understand why the husband transferred the production line for producing muskets?" Qin Wang said.

"My lord, this is a last resort. At present, the arsenal is extremely large. Most of them are research and development, and the main things they produce are artillery and quilts." Shang Wen said.

"These things are mainly provided for military use. And the arsenal costs a lot of money." Shang Wen said.

"Widow understands." King Qin understood Shangwen's thoughts at once. King Qin never regarded the arsenal as a private enterprise, but as an arsenal of Daqin, providing funds according to government rations every month. However, Shangwen's arsenal expanded rapidly with limited funds. From the airship workshop. Go to the artillery workshop. Shangwen suddenly established several prototypes of industry sectors.

The lack of funds to keep up has become a major bottleneck restricting Shangwen's current development. King Qin didn't know Shangwen's financial situation. But what is certain is that Shangwen can transfer a production line out for this purpose.

"My lord, what the minister wants to say is that it is difficult to change the current situation by relying on the strength of the minister alone. No matter how great the minister is, he cannot build a huge industrial base. This requires multiple factors." Shang Wen said.

"The first is to encourage those who have funds to invest and build factories. Expand the scale of production. Then quickly occupy the market. Only in this way can we ensure that we have absolute strength. And these, taxation must be liberalized. This taxation reform must be planned and promoted in advance. Its development." Shang Wen said pleadingly.

"Taxes. What does this have to do with taxes?" King Qin asked puzzledly.

"The king might understand what the minister said." Shang Wen said.

"The minister was allocated a production line, and it seemed that the minister had lost. In fact, otherwise, the minister still has a certain profit. For this production line, the minister has to pay a lot of workers' wages to maintain the operation of the workers. As a result, the cost will rise sharply. This Although this production line is profitable, it is also a burden, just like a person who keeps picking up the burden on the ground. The more you walk, the more the burden. The burden will eventually become an obstacle.”

"After the production line is transferred out, the minister only needs to process the parts and sell it to the other party. The other party only needs to hire someone to process and pay the minister the money for the parts. In this way, the minister saves a lot of money, which is a sum of money. At the same time, a large amount of spare parts were sold at the same time. There was an additional payment, so once in and out, didn't the minister make a profit?"

"As long as the minister maintains one production line, it does not have to maintain too many workers. This is industrial upgrading." Shang Wen said.

"It's very interesting to hear Mr. Qin's business experience." King Qin said.

"The king's taxation is 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 lowered.

"What?" King Qin said in surprise.

"The king's burden is too heavy, so he can't go far." Shang Wen repeated.

"This tax is the burden of the king. Only by reforming this tax can the king go far and go fast." Shang Wen said respectfully. Shang Wen doesn't want to evasive. Instead of talking around the corner, it is better to face the problem directly. Put forward suggestions for rectification.
