"Your Highness, how much are these new oil lamps and this lamp oil worth? Neishiteng calmed down and said.

If you want to promote it on a large scale in Daqin, in addition to performance, price is also a very important factor.

Although the treasury income has increased more than ten times than before, the family has a big business and the expenditure is also very important. With continuous improvement, Nei Shiteng, the governor in charge of the national treasury, also has to be careful in his calculations.

"The materials of lamps are nothing more than glass, copper and iron, and the most expensive thing is just the cotton core in the middle."

"After the cotton harvest in Tianzhu County, the price of lamps can be reduced to less than ten yuan!"

"As for this lamp oil, it is a natural thing, but the distillation and separation requires some effort."

Fusu said with a slight smile.

Anyway, Daqin's version of kerosene is only for lighting. It doesn't matter if the purity is lower, as long as it is well ventilated.

As for whether it will be wasted?

There is the world's largest oil field next to Persia County waiting for Daqin to go. What about mining?

"In this way, I am relieved!"

Neishiteng said with a smile.

"Does this new lamp have a name?"

Ying Zheng smiled and nodded.

If a few of these new lamps could be hung in the royal study, he would no longer have to worry about seeing the fine print on memorials and books.

"I’m waiting for you, Father, to pick a name! Fusu said with a slight smile.

Fame is nothing to him now. If Ying Zheng is happy, he can give it to his father as a gift.

"Just call it the Everlasting Light!"

Ying Zheng thought for a moment, looked at the dazzling light that could not be looked directly at, his eyes lit up and he said

"As expected of Your Majesty, this everlasting lantern is indeed appropriate!"

"With this ever-burning lamp, from now on in our Da Qin, the nights will be like day!"

"Haha, after get off work, you and I can go to Xianyang New Town to relax together and look at the colorful scenery on both sides of the Weishui River. It’s very pleasant!"

"Produced by His Royal Highness the Prince, it is indeed extraordinary!"

The officials also praised one after another, and all of them were in a good mood.

"This will be the young master's office. Under your command, Fusu, things are really different from before!"

Ying Zheng was also impressed.

In the past, the general's office was a small department that built palaces and prepared materials for the imperial court. It was inconspicuous in the court and directly became a pension department for sending nobles.

As the main force of the young master general, the Mohist disciples were also divided into many factions and had been arguing endlessly. However , since Fusu let Gongshu Yue settle in the young master general, everything has completely changed.

The entire young master general has taken on a completely new look. , successively launched many new inventions that made great contributions to the entire Da Qin, and also reformed many workshop production processes, greatly improving the productivity of the entire Da Qin. It also frequently performed well in major projects organized by the imperial court , which is completely different from the past.

Moreover, the Mohist disciples inside did not continue to argue in vain, and competed in various professional abilities with the Gongshu disciples who joined later, and completely entered a healthy working state.

This pair of Ying Zheng It is undoubtedly a great surprise

"In fact, the current work of Shaofu is only in its preliminary stage, and there is still a lot of room for improvement!"

"Moreover, the territory in this palace city is a bit too small."

Fusu spread his hands and said

"Fusu, do you have any specific suggestions?"

"To put it bluntly."

Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly and said

"Erchen thought that the work of the young master could be refined again, leaving only the responsibility of being in charge of construction projects and equipment production, and promoting it to the same position as Jiu Qing."

"In addition, Erchen plans to choose another place to set up a professional research and development institution to develop various more advanced equipment and technologies for Daqin. After they are developed, they will be handed over to the general for production. Fusu said with a slight smile.

The reform he was talking about was actually changing the position of the Shaofu to have similar responsibilities to the later Ministry of Industry, and improving his status. He also made the R&D function independent and created a Daqin version of the Science and Technology Research Institute..

Fusu knows very well that science and technology is the primary productive force.

If you want Great Qin to achieve long-term peace and stability after becoming an empire on which the sun never sets, and to be far ahead of the world, great technological development is indispensable.

And Great Qin itself must be improved. The level of scientific research, Fusu's various advanced technologies exchanged from the system, are more often a catalyst. They must be completely absorbed and transformed by Daqin craftsmen before they can play their greatest role.

And when Daqin craftsmen can keep up with Fusu If all the concepts in Fusu's mind are realized in Daqin, then Daqin will really take off completely.

Otherwise, no matter how much reputation Fusu has, it will not be enough to redeem it.

"Can you be more specific?"

Ying Zheng said with a look of deep thought on his face.

He completely saw the various advanced technologies brought by Fusu and their role in driving Da Qin.

And Ying Zheng originally liked Gao Daquan's style, so naturally I hope that everything in Daqin will be the best.

However, Ying Zheng’s long-term concept has made Ying Zheng not very understanding of technology and research and development.

"The so-called R&D institution is an institution that integrates all the strengths of our Daqin to carry out key research and breakthroughs based on the current needs of our Daqin."

"For example, this time Xianyang City is short of lighting tools. The R&D institution will improve the existing lamps and lamp oil and develop new lamps similar to everlasting lamps."

"After the lamps are successfully developed, we need to study how to continuously improve the production process and how to produce the most and best products at the lowest cost and fastest speed, thereby improving efficiency and profits. Fusu explained with a smile.

"It is indeed necessary!"

"What do you think, dear friends?"

Ying Zheng nodded with satisfaction, glanced at the courtiers beside him who also had thoughtful expressions and said

"The veteran thinks that His Highness's proposal is excellent. Nowadays, the demand for new equipment in the army has greatly increased. If adjustments are made according to His Highness's words, the speed will definitely be accelerated again, allowing the soldiers to get more and better equipment earlier!"

Wang Jian stroked his beard and smiled.

Who among the generals who lead troops in war doesn't want the guy in his hand to be the best?

"I also agree that there are so many projects in the Qin Dynasty now that it is indeed time to improve the status and manpower of the general as a young man, increase the manpower, and refine the responsibilities."

Nei Shiteng also echoed.

"The reason why His Highness wants to set up a special research institute is not only to improve efficiency, but also to facilitate confidentiality, right?"

Dunrui, who was in charge of the Black Ice Platform, thought for a long time and suddenly asked.

Fusu smiled and nodded.

Sure enough, with his efforts, the courtiers of Great Qin have set their sights much higher than before.

Not only can they Recognize the importance of technology, and be able to draw inferences and come up with more ideas.

It is indeed the golden autumn harvest season, and Daqin’s science and technology should also begin to experience a big explosion.
