Shengtang Group, on the top floor of the Tanglou.
Zhu Shan stood beside Li Min.
"Mr. Zili, this is a new battery developed by the research institute on the 28th floor. Please take a look!"
Li Min was holding several new batteries that Zhu Shan mentioned in his hands.
These batteries are much smaller in size.
From the beginning, he worked on batteries.
Because there is a large amount of knowledge reserves, it is more about experimenting with some materials.
There are also advancements in craftsmanship.
If some of these things are completed, the progress of battery research will be much advanced.
That's really standing on the shoulders of giants.
In this way, you can see further.
"Very good, the size of these batteries has reached my expectation. Let them test it again! Choose a more suitable one! Then mass production!"
"Understood! It's just that the power in Tanglou has been a little low recently. Many batteries haven't had time to be charged yet, so this process may take a while. Also, I'm worried that if this continues, if we mass-produce electric vehicles, it won't be possible. How can I recharge it? I’m afraid that those who have bought cars will do the opposite.”
Zhu Shan said so.
"You don't have to worry about this, I understand."
Regarding the issue of power generation and charging, no one is more concerned about it than Li Min.
"I know Mr. Zili can definitely solve this, but..."
"Just what?"
"I heard from the elderly people around me that they looked at the sky and said there might be a drought in the next few months. If this is the case, we will not have enough water. What will we do in the future?"
This kind of thing does not happen out of nowhere.
There must be some basis for saying this.
Some elderly people can predict the coming weather based on their own experience. Although it is inaccurate most of the time, what if it is accurate?
When Li Min heard this, he immediately checked and found out, sure enough, there is really a possibility of drought in two months. If this continues, it will not be good for his great cause.
Moreover, I have planted a large number of crops. If there is a drought, my achievements will be in vain.
This is something he cannot allow.
Therefore, he must plan carefully. As far as he knows, artificial rainfall can be used.
So, that means that in the next time, he must complete the preparations for artificial rainfall.
Artificial rainfall does not involve much knowledge. With the help of gunpowder and hot air balloons, it is not difficult to do so!
So if he is prepared, if there is a drought, it will rain directly. In this way, nothing will happen.
"I understand. When the time comes, go and recruit more people, and I will let you deal with some secret matters, such as droughts. In front of me, you are nothing more than a paper tiger!"
Li Min said this.
Zhu Shan was stunned on the side.
How is this possible?
That is man versus heaven.
But everything Li Min said never failed to come true.
This time, maybe it might be true.
He can fly into the sky, and it shouldn't be a problem if it rains or something.
"I understand! Then I'll take care of it!"
As soon as Zhu Shan left, a moment passed.
Li Min seemed to hear footsteps again.
"Didn't I ask you to deal with that matter? Why are you back again?"
"Mr. Zili, it's me!"
Then a soft voice spoke.
It turned out to be Ji Ruxue.
"It's you, I thought it was Zhu Shan!"
"Mr. Zili, I have received news from the court!"
"Oh? What's the matter?"
"About the mountainous area southeast of Chang'an. The imperial court has made a decision."
Li Min looked careless.
He seemed to have guessed the ending.
"Really? What did he say?"
"His Majesty said that the place is only for rent and not for sale. In other words, in the next 20 years, we can have the right to use it. And we have to pay 10 million taels to purchase the right to use it."
Li Min still didn't stop what he was doing.
"Really, this guy? He's still very smart!"
He said it seemed reasonable.
"Sir, don't you find it strange? After all, what we are doing is for the well-being of the people. But the court did not contribute. We worked so hard, but we got such a high price. I feel very unconvinced."
She is complaining about Li Ke! Why is this so? !
What's so surprising about this?
Li Shimin is Li Shimin.
Very shrewd.
"That's it. Don't think too much. What we do is for the people. But we don't ask for anything in return. Only by paying more can we maintain our original intention. If we are always seeking rewards, then we cannot say that we are. For the sake of the people!"
"But we can't keep paying like this. The group has spent too much money this month. I'm afraid..."
As for the money the group has spent recently, it's just like running water.
Li Min spent money without blinking an eye.
Because this money should be spent to make the most money.
Fortunately he had a bank, otherwise it wouldn't have been possible.
But in Ji Ruxue's view, such a giant existence cannot do this. She is afraid that after all, if she keeps spending money and does not make money, it will explode one day.
Li Shimin did such a thing again, which puzzled her.
"You won't lose money this time, don't worry!"
"But... what can a reservoir be used for? How much money can it make?"
Ji Ruxue expressed deep confusion.
"Listen to me, the sales of some fish produced by that reservoir every year can offset part of the rent. In addition, after it is put into use, it will also bring us a steady stream of wealth. , that is power generation! There is also an intangible wealth, which is to get the support of the people, which is the most important. So we cannot pursue immediate interests! In addition, the court is not a fool. Although the entire court is He has the final say, but there are still many hostile forces lurking in the dark. They will destroy our major event. If this is the case, what will we do in the future? "
"Then next, we have to tie our hands and feet when doing things! That would be very uncomfortable."
Because there were too many hostile forces, Ji Ruxue felt scared.
Li Min laughed again.
"Ruxue, have you forgotten the more than 100 people who studied with us last year?"
"Ruxue has not forgotten!"
"If you haven't forgotten, that's good. The imperial examination is about to begin, so those people will be arranged by me in the court. In the future, whatever we want to do, won't it be easy?"
"Mr. Zili is so powerful!"
Ji Ruxue's worries turned into joy at this time.
Say it directly.
"Okay, next, you just have to watch the show! I have other things to do, so you can go down first!"
"clear!"
When Ji Ruxue left, someone else appeared.
At this time, hearty laughter came from the door.
