 　　 Chen Wenlong's words are very cryptic, but this is indeed the actual problem that Xiao Ming is facing now.
 　　Qi Palace has no money, and Si Qiao's wife can't afford to cook without rice. It is also impossible to force a strong man, otherwise the sky will be angry and the image he has just established will collapse again.
 　　 "The matter is yours, and the money is mine." Xiao Ming gritted his teeth, and he had to integrate this equipment department as well. This was his only chance to stand up.
 　　 Otherwise, relying on the poverty of this fief, he is Yao Shun's reincarnation, and after two years he will have to belch under the barbaric knife.
 　　 Chen Wenlong looked at Xiao Ming, who was frowning and thinking, and was perplexed. This equipment department has never been taken seriously in Dayu Country. Today King Qi does not know what he has committed.
 　　 But thinking of the surly character of King Qi before, he didn't dare to ask more. He thought that King Qi might be just on a whim, but since he ordered this, he could only reply: "Oh, your highness."
 　　 After explaining that Chen Wenlong gathered the woodworkers and blacksmiths in the city, Xiao Ming thought about how to raise money back to the palace.
 　　 called Qian Dafu, and he asked, "Dafu, how much silver do we have in the Prince of Qi?"
 　　 "Going back to your Highness, plus the silver taels brought by the concubine Zhen's aster and Luluo, we still have about one thousand taels of silver in the Qi Palace."
 　　 "One thousand taels?" Xiao Ming frowned.
 　　 The former Xiao Ming didn't have the ability to make money, but he had the ability to spend money. He used the money from Zhenfei's relief and went out to splurge. He also knew the price of Qingzhou City.
 　　 Generally speaking, you can buy two stones of rice for a tael of silver in Dayu. According to his experience, one stone in Dayu is equivalent to 120 kg in modern times.
 　　 One tael of silver is equivalent to two hundred and forty catties of rice, while the average price of a catty of rice in modern times is basically two yuan and 51 catties.
 　　 So one tael of silver is basically equal to 600 yuan in modern renminbi.
 　　 These thousand taels of silver seem to be a lot, but only enough for the royal palace's expenses. After all, the servants, grooms, and patrons in the royal palace need to pay their wages.
 　　 For example, Qian Dafu, one year's wages also cost twenty taels of silver, and for green dill and aster, they also cost fifteen taels. In addition to the cost of food and drink, the rest is limited.
 　　 "Bring out five hundred taels for me." Xiao Ming stretched out his hand.
 　　 "Your Majesty, this is the silver that the lady has just issued this year. It is all delivered to you. You should save some flowers."
 　　 Qian Dafu was stingy, afraid that Xiao Ming would squander his silver again as he did in previous years.
 　　 "This king is doing business this time, not looking for flowers and asking Liu." Xiao Ming curled his lips.
 　　 Qian Dafu listened to it, and then he hesitated and took five hundred taels of silver notes and gave it to Xiao Ming.
 　　 Received the bank note, Xiao Ming said to Qian Dafu: "I want to send a letter to my father."
 　　 Qian Dafu has become numb to Xiao Ming's weird behavior in the past two days, so his servants immediately prepare pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
 　　 Of course, he wrote this time not to reminisce with Xiao Wenxuan, but to cry for the poor. The letter probably means that the fief is hard and the people will be unable to eat.
 　　 Even so, he still has to spend money to resist the barbarians. Yesterday, he captured thirty barbarian cavalrymen. The loss was considerable. The Department of Equipment has no money to make arrows. He hopes to give some assistance.
 　　 "Hurry up and send it to Chang'an!" Xiao Ming glanced with satisfaction at the thousand words crying poor composition, and threw it to Qian Dafu.
 　　 If Xiao Wenxuan still cares about the flesh and blood, maybe he can allocate some money, if Xiao Wenxuan is unfeeling, this letter will all be disgusting to him.
 　　 Xiao Ming basically thought about how to raise money, and there was only one local rich family left.
 　　 But these human spirits are definitely not willing to pay for it. They are anxious that the Qi Palace is half-dead so that they can be at ease.
 　　 But Xiao Ming won't let them go. Now these giants are fat sheep, and Xiao Ming is a goose plucking hair, let alone fat sheep.
 　　Thinking about it, I can hardly grab it, but it's easy to make them vomit money. These big clans are either officials or part-time merchants. As long as they have their favorite products, they are not afraid that they will not take money to buy them.
 　　 For the next three days, Xiao Ming stayed in the Equipment Department all day. Five hundred taels of silver made the Equipment Department more prosperous. The daily purchase of wood, briquettes, and iron ore went in and out, changing the desolate appearance of the past.
 　　 In the Department of Equipment, thirty craftsmen sat on the ground, and Xiao Ming stood in front of them and talked endlessly.
 　　 These thirty craftsmen are basically all the craftsmen in Qingzhou, mainly carpenters and blacksmiths. Now what Xiao Ming tells them is exactly one thing they have never heard of-lathes.
 　　 After analyzing the knowledge in the science and technology library and combining the experience of the first industrial revolution, Xiao Ming believes that the foundation of the industrial revolution is lathes, which include boring machines, milling machines, grinding machines, drilling machines, gear processing machines, and so on.
 　　On the eve of the Industrial Revolution, it was the birth of these tools that produced precise mechanical parts, and precise mechanical parts produced qualified steam engine cylinders.
 　　The steam engine has further automated the lathe, and more sophisticated parts have appeared, making more machinery possible.
 　　During the Warring States Period, China already had primitive lathes. These lathes were generally used to cut round wood for waterwheels, and this technique has always survived.
 　　 It’s just that the lathes of this period were of wooden structure and pedal-powered, and the machine tools were very unstable. U U Reading www.uukanshu.com
 　　A real lathe needs high-quality rigidity, so that the machine tool can be fixed and various equipment parts can be processed.
 　　 As the saying goes, if a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his tools. This is the tool of the craftsman.
 　　 As the accumulation of craftsman's skills, the lathe is also the basis for inducing the industrial revolution.
 　　 What Xiao Ming wants to do now is to let the craftsmen make all kinds of tools first.
 　　 Now that he is standing on the shoulders of giants, he doesn't need to follow the long steps before the industrial revolution, but directly cut to the point.
 　　 Of course, before making lathes, Xiao Ming still has to do one thing, and that is to teach these craftsmen how to make steel.
 　　 Xiao Ming observed the steps of these craftsmen building weapons. Strictly speaking, these craftsmen are still using the traditional steel filling method. The steel produced by this method can still be used on machine tools.
 　　 But originally he wanted to teach them the crucible steelmaking method, but the material of the crucible, graphite, did not know where the people here.
 　　 However, through the science and technology database, Xiao Ming learned that Shandong was originally a large graphite mine province in the present age. After accurately positioning the graphite mine, he can let people find this kind of graphite mine.
 　　 At that time, he can fire crucibles and realize large-scale crucible steelmaking.
 　　 It is the end of the seventeenth century, and the country of Da Yu is just as ignorant of the changes in the outside world just like the late Ming and early Qing.
 　　 Because the news was blocked, Xiao Ming was also unclear.
 　　 But he knew that the Mongolian conquest of Europe did not seem to happen in history. If Europe had achieved a stable period at this time, he could not predict the extent of European civilization now.

 Shen Qing followed her mother's dying words and married into Yangling Marquis' Mansion to become the mistress of the house. She abided by her duties and did not fight or compete.

 If the husband is two-faced and two-faced, then expose his true colors and make him no longer pretend to be a glamorous and bright man.
