I've been on a business trip for a few days and haven't updated it. I'm sorry to everyone~

———————————————————

Qian Xiaoxing vaguely remembers that the history book said that the invention of the steam engine opened the first industrial era. Now the steam engine he made is only used on wooden rail cars, which is simply a waste. There are too many places worth developing and applying.

Steam engines can replace manpower, and if widely promoted, they can greatly improve labor productivity. When Qian Xiaoxing thought of this, he became excited.

Qian Xiaoxing picked up the paper and pen and quickly recorded the places that could be transformed, such as grain millstones, generators, pumps, conveyor belts, etc., and in a short while, a lot of them were written on the paper.

Seeing so many things, Qian Xiaoxing called Yang Sishi and said to him: "With good use of steam engines, it can greatly promote the development of my country's productivity. I have now listed some places that can be transformed, but these are still part of them. There are many places waiting for development, so you need to discover and transform them."

Yang Sishi couldn't react at once, so he looked over the paper and said, "Chief of Staff, can all the things you said be replaced by a steam engine?"

"It's not a substitution, but a steam engine is used as the source of power. Look at this water pump. The pumping shaft is driven by a steam engine. I believe our well salt factory will definitely need it very much." Qian Xiaoxing reminded.

After Qian Xiaoxing reminded her, Yang Sishi immediately woke up and looked at the places written on the paper, and immediately had an idea in his heart. These places can indeed be replaced by steam engines.

Qian Xiaoxing continued: "Yang Sishi, a new era will be created in your hands. Let it go, I will support you with all my strength."

After hearing this, Yang Sishi was a little excited. He imagined how prosperous the steam engine would be if it was promoted nationwide. He said in a trembling voice: "Chief of Staff, I will do my best!"

With the steam engine, Qian Xiaoxing naturally thought of the motor. Now with the generator, there are conditions to turn the motor. The motor is smaller and simpler. Qian Xiaoxing regretted that he thought of the generator, otherwise the industrial production of Siguo would have had earth-shaking changes.

However, at present, Si Guo only has an embankment at the intersection to the Yimu tribe, which can be used for power generation. To promote the generator, we must first have a complete power supply system. Thinking of this, Qian Xiaoxing called Si Yingying and asked her to be responsible for the water conservancy construction in various regions of Si Guo Guo. On the other hand, the development of electric motors was also held at the same time.

Imagine that the future of Siguo, steam engines and electric motors have been widely used across the country, and many trams can even be built and put into use. The logistics and flow efficiency in various places can be greatly improved. Qian Xiaoxing began to feel excited. Although Siguo currently has not much territory, using production efficiency to increase the country's income is not inferior to other major countries.

After finishing these things, more than ten days have passed. At this time, Si Guo’s intelligence website sent Lin Guo’s intelligence. Qian Xiaoxing was stunned after reading the information, and couldn’t help but slapped his forehead, regretting that he didn’t expect these things.

The information content is that Lin Guo has sealed all his domestic money shops and supermarkets, and all the money and supermarket goods are gone.

Qian Xiaoxing immediately held a meeting with the intelligence. The participants had Qian Xiaoxing's wives, Sima Yiqing, Xu Lingli and others. Qian Xiaoxing told everyone about the information content and said: "I will review first. This time I went to war with Lin Guo, and I have no foreseeable revenge for the subsequent Lin Guo. It is my fault. Shan'er, you are in charge of the money house and supermarket. Do you estimate how much we have lost this time?"

Ling Shan stood up, her tall figure still had not changed as before. She only heard her smile and said, "Brother Xing, don't worry. Your failure to expect it does not mean we did not expect that, the money shop and supermarket, we have withdrawn most of the funds and goods, leaving only an empty shell there."

"Really!" Qian Xiaoxing was very happy when he heard this. It seemed that his wife group was not a vase, but still had some strength. He thought that the loss would be great this time, so that the loss would be minimized.

Ling Shan continued: "Yes, in fact, Lin Guo blocked our money house this time, and the losses were still Lin Guo himself. We made a lot of money this time."

Qian Xiaoxing didn't quite understand and asked, "How do you say this?"

Ling Shan smiled slightly and said, "The money in the money house in Lin Country belongs to Lin Country, but we have transported most of the money back to Si State. Now that the money house has been seized by Lin Country, the money house will naturally lose its function, so all this money is owned by our Si State."

Si Yingying said, "Now those people with silver notes cannot cash in on the silver, but it has made the people suffer. However, Lin State wants to enclose our money house, and there are injustice and debts. If the people want to make trouble, they will go to King Lin. It is estimated that this will be a big fuss in Lin State."

After hearing this, Sima Yiqing nodded frequently and said, "Everyone is right. Moreover, if the people lose money, Lin's economy will definitely be greatly hit. King Lin set up a money house and shot himself in the foot."

This made Qian Xiaoxing so happy that he was really lucky. Qian Xiaoxing was so happy that he couldn't stop talking about it and smiled: "Shan'er, how much money did he transport from Lin Guo?"

"After counting, the total number is more than 18.75 million taels." Ling Shan replied.

"Oh," Qian Xiaoxing said in surprise, "It's developed, this time it's developed."

Seeing Qian Xiaoxing so happy, Ling Shan reminded: "Brother Xing, don't forget that Lin State has no money house, but Si State still has silver notes in the hands of the people of Lin State, which can still be circulated in Si State."

"Are you saying that the people of Lin State may withdraw money from our company's money house?" Qian Xiaoxing became nervous when he thought of this. Whether to give or not is a serious problem. If he doesn't give, the money house in Si State cannot exchange for money. Once the people say that the money house will go bankrupt immediately, causing the people to have unimaginable consequences. If he gives, he will have to give the money he gets again, which is very reluctant.

Seeing Qian Xiaoxing at a loss, Sima Yiqing smiled and said, "Son-in-law, what's the problem difficult? As long as you prevent spies from entering the Si State in the name of war, even the people of Lin State cannot enter one. Wouldn't this problem be solved?"

"Haha, what my father-in-law said," Qian Xiaoxing nodded and said, "Then go and close Huju Pass immediately." In fact, Qian Xiaoxing didn't have to close Huju Pass, and Lin State had already blocked the road and would not let a Lin State go over. In this way, the people hated King Lin to death, which helped Si State a great favor.

Ling Shan said again: "The silver from Lin State was transferred to Si State, but the money from Shi State Money House has not been transported yet because the journey is too long. My brother has already dealt with it and will hide the silver secretly to prevent Bai Xiao from robbing our money."

"Okay, very good. Some people say that there must be a great woman behind a successful man. It seems that there are many great women behind me. Thanks to all the beautiful wives for giving so much for me." Qian Xiaoxing was moved and bowed deeply when he said this.

Everyone stood up and Si Yingying said, "Brother Xing, you are working harder than us when you are fighting outside. I have told you that you must do everything at home and you can no longer worry about it."

"Well, half of mine and half of yours are on the military medal." Qian Xiaoxing said happily.

Sima Yiqing nodded and said, "Son-in-law, since you are responsible for the matter outside, have you ever thought about how to deal with Lin Guo?"

Hearing this, Qian Xiaoxing sighed and said, "Actually, I am tired of war. I thought I would be safe after marrying the princess of Lin Country. I didn't expect that King Lin would be so ruthless. Since he is not kind, don't blame me for being unrighteous. When our army grows, I will fight him to the end."

"What do you mean is to develop the team again? You have 150,000 people now, and there are not many. Thinking about the time when you had only tens of thousands of people, and you were dozens of times more than the Hu army, but you dared to fight out of the Cangqiu Pass. Why are you not so domineering now?" Sima Yiqing asked with a smile.

"Uh..." Qian Xiaoxing was indeed a little confused. Now there are too many troops, but he dare not fight out. Are he no longer confident?

Sima Yiqing analyzed: "There is an old saying that barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes. At the beginning, you could be said to be barefoot people. Now that you have shoes, your mood will naturally change. However, soldiers are very fast. If you want to fight Lin Guojue to the death, you must not delay time. You cannot just defend but not attack. While Lin Guo is not ready to send troops to attack, the best strategy is."

Qian Xiaoxing nodded and said, "My father-in-law's analysis is reasonable, so how should he attack according to your opinion?" Since Sima Yiqing joined Siguo, Qian Xiaoxing seemed to have unloaded the burden, and he no longer had to worry about these things.

Sima Yiqing replied: "Sending troops from Huju Pass, retreating can defend and attack, and it is close to Lin Guoqidu. It is very dangerous for Lin Guo. Instead of just defending but not attacking, it is better to use attack as the defense. In this way, King Lin will definitely gather heavy troops in Yu Qidu, and the defense pressure on the Lan River will be reduced a lot."
