Special Forces: Drop Fan Tianlei instantly at the start

Chapter 242

It has been three days since the military parade, and the entire Xianyang City is still in a jubilant atmosphere, and the people are even walking with great vigor.

The curfew of the trial operation in Xianyang City was postponed to three o'clock (early 0 o'clock), which made the people happy, and many people who were originally going to go back after watching the military parade stayed one after another, enjoying the prosperity of Xianyang City that never sleeps.

A splendid opera program was even full, won the unanimous applause of the people, and has become a new signboard of Xianyang City.

The merchants also took the opportunity to launch a variety of discount activities, attracting people from various counties and counties of Daqin to buy enthusiastically, and the skyrocketing commercial tax directly made all the courtiers laugh.

"Your Majesty, according to the news reported by the Xianyang Order, in the past three days, the commercial tax in Xianyang New City has been more than ten times that of normal days, and the increase in commercial tax alone is enough to cover all the expenses of the military parade, and there is a surplus. "

"Now many people are already looking forward to the Navy Fleet Parade and celebrations in a month!"

Feng Qujian reported with a beaming face.

"Great goodness!"

Ying Zheng nodded with satisfaction.

Although the military parade has many benefits, it has been talked about by the government and the opposition so far, but the expenditure is not small, and Ying Zheng has always been worried about whether it will be imperfect because of the excessive expenditure that will cause corruption and criticism.

However, now, as Fusu said, the increase in income is far greater than the expenditure, which has completely played a role in driving economic growth, and Yingzheng can be completely relieved.

"It's this curfew that has been lifted for several days in a row, so that the lamp oil and candles in Xianyang City are a little anxious!"

An embarrassed smile appeared on Nesten's face.

In recent years, Daqin's lighting was mainly based on candles and oil lamps, both of which required a large amount of animal fat, and the price had not been low.

Coupled with the reason that the long-term curfew is not consumed much on weekdays, there are not many reserves of lighting oil in the Inner History Mansion, and after the curfew has been opened for several days, it has to urgently transfer a batch from various counties to barely keep up with the consumption.

"It doesn't matter, this prince has asked Jiang Zuo Shaofu to develop a new type of lamp oil, once it is promoted, there is no need to worry about the lack of lamp oil, and the brightness is also higher. "

Fusu smiled slightly.

In the previous systematic lottery, Fusu had obtained a map of Daqin oil, and then ordered the exploration craftsmen inside the Shaofu to start looking for oil in the corresponding area of Guanzhong.

In fact, the Central Plains region was the first in the world to discover, exploit and utilize oil.

As early as the "Book of Changes" of the Western Zhou Dynasty, there was already a record of oil.

"There is fire in Ze, and fire is on fire and Ze is down".

Saw, lakes and ponds also.

"There is fire in the swamp" refers to the phenomenon of oil vapor catching fire on the surface of lakes and ponds.

This fully shows that there is not only oil in Guanzhong, but also an oil field that directly overflows the surface and can be exploited relatively easily.

Although the reserves are completely incomparable with those super oil fields in later generations, they are more than enough for the current Great Qin.

Moreover, the Middle East, which has the largest oil reserves and the highest quality in the world, is still a deserted area, and it is on the edge of Daqin's Persian County, which is completely within the control of Daqin.

Although with the current level of technology in Daqin, it is not possible to achieve the developed petroleum refining of later generations, but after having glass, it is still possible to carry out some simple distillation and separate a finished product similar to kerosene.

And kerosene lamps, before the advent of electric lights, have been the brightest and most popular lighting fixtures.

It is the most suitable for today's Daqin.

"A new, brighter and better oil lamp?"

Ying Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up.

He had to read the recitals until midnight every day, and he was often troubled by the lack of brightness of the oil lamp, until Fusu got out the whale oil candle.

But whale oil is a rare thing after all, and it is too extravagant to let the Great Qin Sailor hunt giant whales for the sake of palace lighting, so as soon as he heard that there were new lamps with higher brightness, Ying Zheng immediately became interested.

"If the father and the courtiers are interested, they might as well follow the prince to the Shaofu. "

Fusu smiled slightly.

The group immediately followed with great interest.

Anyway, the Shaofu was originally in the palace city, and it was only a quarter of an hour's time away from the main hall of the court.

"It's only been half a year, and this will be a young mansion, and it will be a big change!"

As soon as he entered the Jiangzuo Shaofu and looked at the busy scene that was completely different from the past, Li Si couldn't help but be taken aback.

"Since the arrival of the public loser, the entire general has been reorganized, divided into multiple categories according to the different research contents, each category has its own corresponding project, and the survival of the fittest system has been implemented. "

"Today's Jiangzuo Shaofu is indeed completely different from the past. "

"In just over half a year, many new equipment inventions have been brought out, especially the hydraulic punching car, which has been applied to many workshops in Daqin. "

"Not only is the production efficiency much higher than that of hand forging in the past, but also the strength is higher, and it can be made thinner!"

Nei Shiteng, who dealt with the most with the general Shaofu, looked at Fusu Dao with admiration.

Although it was a reform carried out in the month of public loss, everyone knew that it was an idea from Fusu, and the effect was so good that everyone had nothing to say.

Wang Jian also nodded thoughtfully.

With his incomparable experience in the battlefield, he naturally understands that better equipment, like accurate and effective tactical command, is a weapon to increase the combat strength of the army.

The lighter and harder armor and weapons that the shosho shofu now came up with meant that the soldiers could conserve more physical strength during long marches and wield their swords more briskly.

This is like a tiger with wings for the Great Qin Army, which is now the king of the cavalry.

Even Wang Jian replaced the bronze sword he had carried for many years with a new type of stainless steel sword.

"Let's take a look at this new oil lamp first!"

Fusu smiled slightly.

The eyes of Ying Zheng and the civil and military officials were immediately attracted to the new lamp in the hand of Shi Muroling.

"This lamp looks no different from an ordinary glass lamp?"

He looked at it for a long time, and asked curiously.

Nowadays, the price of glass in Daqin has been reduced a lot, and the permeability has long been valued by lamp craftsmen, and it has become one of the main materials for Daqin oil lamps.

"If there is a gap, test it!"

Fusu smiled and brought Yingzheng and the courtiers into the hall, and then asked people to cover the doors and windows with curtains, and then lit the Daqin version of the kerosene lamp.

I saw a faint dim light appear in the dark room, cutting through the darkness.

And as Fusu continued to adjust the knob that controlled the lamp oil above, the brightness of the kerosene lamp continued to increase, and soon reached a fiery level that made it impossible to look at directly.

The whole hall suddenly became as bright as day.

Wang Jian and the others suddenly took a deep breath.

That's too bright, isn't it?

Compared to the brightest whale oil candle before Daqin, it was much stronger.

Nesten was even more overjoyed.

As long as such bright new lamps are hung on the streets and alleys, what are you afraid of the security problems caused by the open curfew?

Daqin's nightlife is completely guaranteed.

It's a lighting artifact!
