I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

The first place was awarded to Fei Yufeng's "Electric Power Research" with a bonus of 10,000 yuan. The project received a royal grant of 300,000 yuan in the first year, and it will increase every year.

Also, the chief researcher Fei Yufeng was awarded a Viscount.

This result is beyond everyone's expectations, and many people are also dissatisfied.

If you don't agree, there's nothing you can do. This is an expo held by Wu Changqing at his own expense. If you don't agree, you can organize one yourself, be the judge yourself, and give the first place to whoever you want.

Of course, some people are envious.

That is a viscount, which means that he has completed the transformation from a commoner to a noble. In the future, he does not need to kneel when he sees a first-rank official, and he still has a stool to sit on when he commits a case and is tried.

Whether in terms of bonuses, funds, or titles, Wu Changqing's generosity exceeded everyone's imagination.

The second place continued to surprise, and the winner was Chu Xuan's reflecting astronomical telescope.

The bonus is 5,000 yuan, and the project receives 100,000 yuan of royal funding in the first year, which will increase year by year.

However, Chu Xuan did not get the title anymore. Dahua's title is quite rare and not so easy to get. But Chu Xuan didn't care, the 100,000 yuan research funding was enough to make him snicker.

Being able to get second place was beyond his imagination.

This is also normal. Except for Wu Changqing, no one can realize the importance of this thing.

The third place is the kerosene lamp, with a bonus of 3,000 yuan, and the project received 50,000 yuan of royal funding in the first year. Zhu Yuhuan can also choose to give up and accept offers from other businessmen instead.

Basically, it is a foregone conclusion that Zhu Yuhuan accepts the merchant's offer.

After all, the commercial value of this invention is huge, and even electric power research can get 300,000 yuan. In the eyes of people at present, his commercial value must be hanging down on electric power research.

For the later inventions, you can choose to accept the quotations of merchants, and some of them that are not funded by royal funds must rely on the support of ordinary merchants.

Wu Changqing no longer participated in the follow-up, and left first.

The merchants and the inventors started to negotiate and compete.

"Mr. Ge, I'm the owner of the BMW dealership. I'm very interested in your slide projector. Can I take a step and talk about your project."

Tong Youwei did not target the more profitable kerosene lamps, but chose the slideshow.

This is because the Tong family is no longer short of money.

BMW cars, rickshaws, and cement are the three businesses that make their family a lot of money.

Especially now that roads and houses are being built all over the country for infrastructure construction, and his family's cement has never been in stock.

All of them have been pre-ordered before they are built.

Tong Youwei has no shortage of money, but only a sense of security.

Judging from Wu Changqing's reform of currency, the emperor was not a person who completely thought of businessmen, and sometimes used his power to forcibly plunder wealth.

The intensity of the currency reform this time is relatively light, but no one knows how heavy it will be next time.

Therefore, businessmen are actually insecure in their hearts.

Some people thought of joining forces to fight against Wu Changqing, but others found another way and chose to be tied to Wu Changqing.

Just like Tong Youwei, since Wu Changqing entered Nanjing, he has been Wu Changqing's most loyal supporter.

In the beginning, he even went bankrupt and took out money to support Wu Changqing's development. Until now, his family's cement has also adhered to the principle of small profits but quick turnover, and did not raise prices casually because of its monopoly position.

With this absolute support, the relationship between his family and the royal family is very close, not inferior to the Chen family.

Therefore, when choosing investment fields, Tong Youwei also chooses those fields that can add points to his relationship with the royal family.

Since Wu Changqing is interested in this cartoon, he should invest in it and get the cartoon out as soon as possible to make the emperor happy.

As for whether or not he can make money, this Tong Youwei really doesn't care.

As long as Wu Changqing does not deprive him of the monopoly of cement, everything else is negotiable.

He is not the only one who thinks like Tong Youwei.

"Boss Tong, don't you mean it? Your Majesty said that we can bid freely and fairly. Why do you still want to take others to borrow a step to talk? "

said a businessman.

"That's right, Boss Tong, you already have BMW cars and the cement industry. Please leave a way out for the rest of us."

Pang Yuanming complained.

There is a bit of jealousy in the words.

The reason is also very simple, Tong Youwei's monopoly on cement has not been deprived. But his monopoly on the saltworks was stripped away in August last year.

Considering the importance of the salt industry and the need to meet the needs of more places, the court chose to open several official salt farms.

Although the government fulfilled its promise and did not give this salt-making technology to other businessmen, it did it by itself.

Faced with this situation, Pang Yuanming didn't dare to ask or say anything, he could only earn a small amount of money silently.

After all, in the short term, the government's salt farms cannot significantly affect his profits.

However, after all, this is the loss of monopoly power.

After seeing the harmonious relationship between the Tong family and the government, Pang Yuanming also wanted to go this way and hug Wu Changqing's thick legs.

And now there is an opportunity to please Wu Changqing, and he naturally does not want to miss it.

Although he doesn't know how much it will cost to invest in an animation project, in his opinion, less than 1 million is not a problem.

Pang Yuanming's words aroused resonance and response from several other businessmen, and there were more than one who were jealous of Tong Youwei.

"Hehe, I thought everyone looked down on this gadget. Since everyone likes it, let's have a fair bid together."

Tong Youwei smiled, showing the appearance of a good old man.

It's a nice, fair bid.

But compared to financial resources, how can other people compare with him. This so-called fairness is not fair at all.

Everyone is helpless about this. They can't unite and ask Tong Youwei to withdraw from the competition. They have no such ability.

Afterwards, several people who were interested in cartoons sat aside with Ge Yunfei to discuss the investment.

Ge Yunfei was not familiar with these merchants, so he could only choose the one with the highest bid.

The higher the bid, the stronger the opponent's strength.

It is always better to work with strong people than weak people.

The more money he invested, the more painters and workers he could hire to speed up the research.

After some fierce competition, it was not Tong Youwei but Pang Yuanming who finally won.

Pang Yuanming promised an investment amount of 500,000 yuan, and he would add it as appropriate in the future.

It's not that Tong Youwei has no money, he just pays attention to making money with his anger, and he doesn't want to fight with Pang Yuanming for life and death to offend people.

Anyway, this animation is just his bonus item, optional. But for Pang Yuanming, it was inevitable, and the determination of both sides was no longer at the same level.
