Traveling through the sword to engage in military industry.

Chapter 154 Progress
It is precisely because Ren Zhong has maintained his independent identity that Ren Zhong is now much more suitable to preside over the Dawn Research Institute than anyone else in the border area. In fact, many of these scientists stay away from politics.

Because of this, every month the current project team members of the Dawn Institute are constantly calling on friends and students to join. Up to now, the number of researchers has increased by more than one hundred, forming a scale of nearly 500. This number of researchers would not be enough to carry out so many projects even if there were ten times more. However, due to the direct infusion of information like pulling up seedlings for growth, these scientists are now only digesting, absorbing and imitating, and these people can barely push the project forward.

For example, those who study rockets have built a preliminary test environment in the laboratory and prepared early double-base propellants. This first generation of double-base propellants is mainly composed of nitrocellulose and nitrate plasticizers. Nitrocellulose has a mature preparation process. Nitrate plasticizers mainly use nitroglycerin and other nitrate esters as plasticizers. Polyether prepolymers such as polyethylene oxide and isocyanate form adhesives, and then RDX, oxidants and aluminum powder are added to solidify the product.

The main problem is that it is difficult to obtain ethylene oxide. Ren Zhong found an early chlorohydrin process for production, which was the process used by UCC for industrial production in the early 20s. It must be quite difficult to fully understand it and also get the factory line equipment ready. Without a supporting industrial base, almost everything had to be researched and completed by the Liming Institute itself.

However, laboratory verification of the entire process does not require so many things. Now, the double-base propellant has basically completed kilogram-level trial production in the laboratory. No matter how high the cost is, the production of RPG rockets and the most core link of 107 rockets have finally made another step forward.

After Ren Zhong explained Jiang Chongjing's matter, he put it aside and fully supported the research and development of various projects. When each project team encountered a problem, Ren Zhong had to bring the problem to the main world to solve it. In order to have an accurate answer to these huge scientific research questions, Ren Zhong's current advisory team has expanded to more than 20 special expert consultants at home and abroad.

The consulting fees alone cost several million every year!
Of course, these experts are not just famous for nothing, they are very familiar with Ren Zhong’s retro craft processes from the last century. Many of them even study the evolution history of product technology and have a complete set of ancient craft materials in their hands.

Even so, it is not easy for Ren Zhong. He has to understand everyone's problems and find out what problems they are trying to solve. Only then can he ask very targeted questions to the consulting experts and ask them to answer them. He also has to reorganize the answers and transform them into words used in the context of the world of Bright Sword.

So Ren Zhong's life is busy like a dog every day. Some experiments require small equipment with complex workmanship, and Ren Zhong has to find ways to obtain them from the main world and bring them into the world of Bright Sword. It can be said that he has to handle all the work by himself.

Only things like buying and finding things, if they are not too sensitive, can be handed over to his three brothers to do. For example, the selection of consulting experts is mainly handled by those three tools.

Otherwise, even if Ren Zhong had three heads and six arms, he wouldn't be able to do so many things.

Ren Zhong felt that he was somewhat overwhelmed, but in the hearts of the experts at the Dawn Research Institute, they were actually full of admiration for him.

There are simply no words to express Ren Zhong's erudition and talent.

Because of this, even professors or students who have just joined the Dawn Institute will quickly be infected by such a team and devote themselves wholeheartedly to research work.

Become a tool man who voluntarily does 007 work under Ren Zhong!

When Ren Zhong traded the latest batch of penicillin with Zhang Wanhe for jadeite, his mind was shocked and the system prompt was upgraded again!

“Draw the sword and travel through the system.

Current time and space: February 1941, Haojiaping in the border area.

Countdown to return: 15:14:18.

Points: 1001408.

Do you choose to return?

Return address 1: Cave No. 78, Haojiaping.

Return address 2: Warehouse No. 1, Nangou Village, Heyuan. Return address 3: None.

No option to return to the last crossing point (the current crossing point can be selected within 1,000 kilometers). "

Sure enough, this garbage system just adds a return to a fixed address and a range of optional traversals as transactions increase.

For Ren Zhong, this function is basically useless now.

He values ​​his life very much, so there is no need for him to not go out and wander around at all.

So this seemingly awesome escape function may never be used in your lifetime.

But Ren Zhong did not expect that at 3 yuan per gram, he and Zhang Wanhe had made a huge deal of 50 yuan, because the total amount of transactions he made during his last trip to the rear area was almost 50 yuan.

With this calculation, the amount of money Zhang Wanhe earned from Ren Zhong might be more than one million!
Because most of the deductions were paintings and top-quality jadeite, with more than 200 paintings and calligraphy by famous people and dozens of top-quality jadeite, Lao Zhang may have spent more than 1 yuan in hard costs (excluding transportation costs). However, if he sold them in pieces, 4 gram divided into 20 parts, he could get more than ten yuan or even more than yuan!

The profit can be more than ten times!

However, Zhang Wanhe made huge profits, and Ren Zhong will never lose money.

At the end of the year, Ren Zhong asked Ma Shuya to sell a batch of calligraphy, paintings and jadeite, and he earned another billion yuan in simple terms.

He rented a small island in Hong Kong and built a villa, and began to store the World War II weapons that Zhao Lidong had purchased from all over the world. He already had a P51D that was still able to fly, and a set of Spitfire with complete spare parts, but it could no longer fly.

Plus a rusty T34 tank, which is currently undergoing renovation;

另外收购不了原版本的，赵立冬找人按照原始设计图完成了九四式75毫米山炮，105毫米le.FH 18榴弹炮、M2式105毫米榴弹炮、88毫米FLAK高炮和苏罗通ST-5型20毫米高射炮的高仿。

Placed on the island, it looks like a military camp!
It was with these samples that Ren Zhong had very intuitive references when answering questions from the weapons research center. Although these things were not cheap, the two planes cost 1000 million dollars, and the shipping cost was nearly 10 dollars. The tanks also cost more than 300 million dollars to be transported from Russia through the Baltic Sea. After all, the Black Sea in the main world has become a restricted area.

In comparison, the cost of simulating those cannons is not worth mentioning. It cost less than 100 million Hong Kong dollars in total. After all, they are just showpieces, and the gun barrels are made of ready-made seamless steel pipes, which are not worth much money at all. However, a lot of effort was spent on the hydraulic recoil device and the horizontal wedge-type breechblock to restore the original version one to one.

Together with the Dazuo motorcycle, Willys Jeep, and CCKW-353 10-wheel truck, Ren Zhong basically had all the basic equipment for the mechanized troops in World War II.

These are also the main weapons and equipment of the mechanized corps that will be prepared for the border area. Of course, we can't talk about transportation now. We have to wait until Jinsui is taken as the base of the Eighth Route Army before Ren Zhong is able to build real industrial infrastructure.

At this stage, after completing the large-scale production of 56 semi-automatic mortars, MG3 and 82mm mortars, and RPG rocket launchers, Ren Zhong will next focus on completing the research and development of the Type 75 107mm mountain gun, 5mm fire and Suratong ST-20 mm anti-aircraft gun. With these three pieces of equipment, the main force of the Eighth Route Army can conduct positional warfare regardless of day or night, and begin to have the hard power to engage in a head-on decisive battle with the regular divisions of the Japanese.
