It turns out that Li Min wanted to see Yan Lide.
Yan Lide has been dealing with the construction of Shengtang Group.
The reason why he came to see Li Min at this time must be because of construction matters.
This is what Dai Zhou could guess.
He couldn't know what the specific matter was.
This was someone else's secret, and he didn't dare to inquire about it.
So, after saluting Yan Lide, he went downstairs.
There was a residence arranged by Li Min for a long time.
He can live in peace there.
As for Yan Lide arriving at Li Min's office.
When he saw Li Min.
Then he said: "Sir, our railway track is still 110 meters away from completion. Because there will be fewer manpower during the Chinese New Year, it is expected to be completed in February next year!"
Next February?
That's soon too.
A little faster than expected.
"You did a great job!"
He thought to himself, then, after the railway is completed, the expedition to Japan will begin. Why not go directly to the expedition? That's because the current internal combustion engine research and development has reached a critical moment.
Originally I wanted to use a steam engine as power.
However, due to the rapid development of the internal combustion engine and the exploration of oil, his plan was disrupted! So he wants to change the plan!
Otherwise, he would definitely use the steam engine first.
But with the internal combustion engine, the steam engine was naturally of no use.
That's why he wanted to eliminate the steam engine and replace it with the most efficient internal combustion engine.
Just continuous, massive power support.
This allows the battleship to move faster.
This way you spend less time on the road.
This way you can kill the enemy by surprise.
As for the steam engines produced, they can be put into civilian use, and can even be installed on fishing boats to go fishing at sea! But that's for later.
"this is what we are supposed to do!"
"Okay, then after the railway is completed, I have a large number of internal combustion engines that will be shipped to Taizhou. By then, you will be responsible for this!"
"Yes! Leave this matter to me!"
Yan Lide expressed.
"By the way, there's one more thing!"
"Huh? What else?"
Li Min asked curiously.
"Also, our second base has been built, and the next step is to decorate it. The specifications of this base are completely based on those of a hot spring resort. The underground space, as well as the ground space, are extremely solid! As well as the hydropower plant built nearby. To supply power to the base!”
"How is the base's concealment now? Has anyone discovered it?"
"That's not true. We have set up a cordon on the edge and built a large wall. We have also ordered people to patrol 24 hours a day. Moreover, we are in the deep mountains and old forests, so it is very difficult to find our location."
"Then I'll go take a look sometime!"
"We are always waiting for your arrival, sir!"
"Now that the base is built, just wait!"
Then Li Min picked up the phone.
"Seventh brother, come up here!"
Yan Lide was puzzled, why did Li Min call Li Yun?
But I didn't dare to ask any more questions, I just waited there.
After a while, Li Yun came up.
"Brother Six, do you have anything to do with me?"
"As for the internal combustion engine, I want you to bring the entire team to our second base to continue research! The smelter is also there! Do you know?"
"Brother Six, why are you doing this? We are doing a good job here!"
"This thing is too shocking for talents. Moreover, we must prioritize shipbuilding and provide power support for the battleships! We can't let him know about this, otherwise, it will be difficult for us to deal with the next matter."
Li Min said it very straightforwardly.
He was afraid that Li Shimin would find out, because once Li Shimin found out, everything would be difficult to handle.
That guy will definitely get involved.
If he finds himself training troops, he may have random thoughts.
This is very bad for his expedition to Japan.
Therefore, try not to let Li Shimin know this.
Li Yunzhi said: "Yes, then I understand. I will ask them to prepare later!"
"It's feasible. You can transport the parts to the hot spring resort. I want you to complete the transfer within seven days! Also, I will start producing fourth-generation pistols and the previous third-generation cannons at the second base. By then, you have to Find more people to study.”
"I understand! Then I'll deal with it now!"
"Okay, let's go!"
"Then sir, do I still want to stay here?"
Yan Lide asked again.
"You...you're fine, go and do your work first!"
"Then sir, I'm leaving first!"
"Go!"
After Yan Lide left, Li Min suddenly remembered something again.
So he said to the little girl who was also in the office: "Send a telegram to Taizhou and ask how the warships are being built now?"
"Yes, sir!"
The girl went down to deal with it.
Some time ago, Wang Xuance sent a telegram saying that half of the ten warships had been built.
It's been a long time, and I don't know to what extent it has been built now.
While waiting for the telegram, Li Min walked to the floor-to-ceiling window.
Night had fallen by now.
But Chang'an City is brightly lit.
A large number of people turned on their lights.
Others use biogas lamps.
At present, the popularity of electric lights in Chang'an is about 10%.
The penetration rate in some prosperous areas has reached 50%.
In addition, Li Shimin canceled the curfew some time ago, and Datang became a city that never sleeps.
This has a lot of benefits in terms of stimulating consumption.
Therefore, the taxes collected by the court were also higher.
Li Shimin's decision directly promoted the accelerated development of Datang's economy.
And suddenly, his shoulders felt warm and there was a cloak on his body.
It's Su Mei.
She is coming.
"Sir, you have been standing here for a long time. If you stand any longer, you may catch a cold!"
"Su Mei, it's you!"
Li Min took Su Mei's hand.
At this time, the relationship between the two seems to have taken a further step.
At the same time, the same was true for the other four women.
The five women seemed to be quite fine now.
But that's okay, there was a fire in the backyard recently.
"gentlemen!"
Suddenly, the telegraph girl shouted.
"What's the matter? Did Wang Xuance reply?" "Yes! The telegram is here!"
"Let me see!"
Li Min took it and took a look, and was overjoyed.
It said that there is one more battleship, the last one!
"Very good, please reply again and ask them to hurry up and train. When the power of the internal combustion engine arrives, it will be time to go to Japan!"
This matter must be resolved before the ice and snow melt.
Now the Japanese and Goguryeo countries are in a rather special position. It has snowed heavily there at this time, and the mountains have been sealed by the heavy snow, which is very unfavorable for the war.
So, they didn't attack.
Li Min had to destroy their rear before they attacked and teach these Japanese a lesson.
"yes!"
And after Li Min made these arrangements, Wu Yi came unexpectedly.
She whispered softly: "Sir, I have some script issues that I would like to discuss with you. I wonder if you are free, sir?"
script?
That was the small movie that Su Mei had planned to shoot.
This period of time has been very hard for everyone.
Because movies are a new thing for them, and Li Min takes it very seriously, everyone is under a lot of pressure.
