The Rise of the European Emperor

"Oh, I'm such a genius!" Marin slapped his head suddenly.

why? Because, he doesn't plan to call the little black room a little black room in the future. How ugly is the little black room? Moreover, it is a bad place to hear it. However, if the small black room is renamed "confession room"...

In such a strong religious atmosphere in this age, the confessional is sacred and legal. And the small black house, at first glance, is a symbol of brutality, a symbol of the brutal rule of the Great Demon King Ma.

Therefore, changing the name of the small black room to a "confessional room" with religious characteristics is in line with the characteristics of this era, and it is absolutely politically correct.

So, Marin ordered that crosses be placed on top of all the small black houses in Beihai. Then, the words "confessional room" were written on the doors.

It's just that, unlike the confessional room, the small black room renamed the confessional room does not have a priest to listen and explain. In this regard, the explanation of the law enforcement agency of Beihai State is-the pastors and gentlemen are not free, or they are sick and ask for leave, what can you do to me?

Theoretically, all the small black houses are in charge of priests. But the pastor is in the church, so he has "no time" to come to the small black room... No, it is a sealed confessional room to listen and explain. Therefore, for those who are locked in the small black room, you should repent to God yourself, the same...

You said you paid for indulgences? There's nothing wrong with it, atonement doesn't conflict with confession...

Since then, Marin, a person who is closely related to the Holy See, has resolved the misunderstanding with the Holy See by changing the name of the small black room to the confessional room, and maintained a high degree of political consistency. Not only did it not offend the Holy See, but also punished the prisoners in the territory, and it made people unable to find fault.

But what’s nonsense is that, perhaps inspired by Marin, our Papal State later appeared this kind of sealed black room without a priest... No, it’s a sealed confessional room...

This kind of sealed confessional room without a priest was later used by the Holy See to deal with religious dissidents whose crimes were not enough to be burned at the stake, but who needed to be taught a lesson. Since then, fewer heretics have been burned to death at the stake, but many more have been tortured madly in sealed confessionals...

Of course, that's for later. Right now, the benefits of the sealed confessional room are exclusive to Beihai. In the North Sea country, the crime rate is very low. It's not that the folk customs here are simple, but that the little black house is too powerful. Many thorns, after being locked up twice, become extremely honest, who dares to commit crimes?

Moreover, Marin pays great attention to people's livelihood and will not let anyone starve to death. In this day and age, almost no one wants to die if they can eat enough. If happiness is not enough, Marin will let them eat black stick bread for a few days, which is the kind of bread that more than half is made of dirt, sawdust, stones, wild vegetables and other miscellaneous materials, and is so hard that it can be used as a brick to hit people.

Happiness comes from comparison. With this kind of living comparison, most people will think about it. I really couldn't think about it, so I had to take it to the confessional.

The children in Beihai Kingdom are born without worrying about eating and drinking, so they probably don't know what hunger is. It doesn't matter, Marin often arranges for the old farmers in Beihai to go to school to tell about the past. This kind of activity is called "recalling bitterness and thinking about sweetness". In order to remind the children of bitterness and sweetness, the cafeteria will prepare black baguettes and bitter rye porridge for the children that day. It's the kind where rye grains are thrown directly into the pot and boiled, with some wild vegetables and leaves and other condiments, and they are stewed together.

Come several times every semester, and the noble children will not let it go. Therefore, the children in the entire Beihai Kingdom knew that it was Marin who led everyone to please the hunger and have enough food. The current life is not easy to come by, we need everyone to protect it, don't try to die...

In addition, Marin also asked the people of the immigration company to quietly collect orphans who were unsupported and were about to starve to death from all over Germany and even France. Then, they were sent to various places in Beihai to attend classes with the children.

These orphans, because there is no one to support them, are generally starving and emaciated. Before being sent to various places, Marin deliberately asked people not to change the clothes of these children, and let them wear the original worn-out clothes. However, before entering the Beihai country, he was arranged to take a bath, his body was tidied up, and his clothes were also washed and sterilized at high temperature.

These children came to various schools, so that the children of Beihai could clearly see the gap and understand how cruel this world is. And how happy they are. Does happiness come from comparison? With the comparison of these poor orphans, children will understand what happiness is...

As for this hurting the self-esteem of those orphans? Sorry, they can eat and get an education, so it's okay to lose a little self-esteem. In a previous life, Marin had seen videos of really hungry kids scavenging for food in stinking dumpsters. So, what is face? On a hot summer day, Marin was trapped in his residence, and the air conditioner happened to be broken... At that time, as long as someone could fix the air conditioner for him, it would be no problem for him to call his father. So... well, let's not talk about it...

...

The days seem to have become dull again, and the war is still early. Because, the Grand Duchy of Moscow is colder, and the spring plowing is late. They will not launch an attack on Smolensk until they finish their spring plowing. Lithuania, on the other hand, didn't even know about it. Moreover, even if war breaks out, the North Sea country will not immediately join the battlefield. After all, Marin has to wait for the Grand Duchy of Moscow to knock Lithuania down first.

So, next, there will be a few months of rare leisure time. Of course, most people are leisurely, and the workers in the shipyard are still working hard to build ships.

In order to build enough ships to transport troops, supplies and immigrants, Marin released black technology this time. He decided to learn from the old American method of making free ships during World War II, and quickly manufacture a batch of ships that can be used quickly but have a short lifespan.

It's like the Liberty Ship that could carry 5,500 tons of cargo during World War II, because Santoko's submarines sank too many merchant ships. In order to ensure the supply of materials from Europe and the Soviet Union, Lao Mei ignored the durability of the ship and directly launched a big move to mass-produce free ships with a large cargo capacity but a short lifespan.

Because the battlefield urgently needs a lot of supplies, there is no time for you to make good quality ships. Therefore, when Laomei designed the free wheel, he directly set the design life at about 5 years. So, that quality...

At that time, the mainstream of shipbuilding was riveting, supplemented by welding. Mainly, the welding technology at that time was relatively poor. Not to mention that it is not strong enough, it is also easy to cause the potential difference of the weld in the seawater due to material problems, resulting in loss of the weld and greatly reducing the service life.

Argon arc welding, which was widely used later, seems to have appeared only after World War II. In about five years, it was introduced to Huaxia and became the mainstream welding process for manufacturing aircraft and warships.

But during World War II, welding technology was very backward. But with riveting, it takes a lot of time to process the interface, which leads to the slowdown of shipbuilding and the inability to meet the needs of war. Therefore, Lao Mei simply gave up - the quality is poor, right? I don't care, I only care about building a large number of usable transport ships right now!

Then, the famous Liberty Wheel appeared. This thing directly adopts a square ordinary steel plate with no joints. Then, the relatively poor welding process was used instead of riveting...

So, later there was a legend that Yankees built a ship like dumplings. Of course, what Mibuki said is that making dumplings is like making warships. In fact, it is just a free wheel for making goods by making dumplings. As for the manufacture of warships, it still depends on the original craftsmanship. It's just that the old and American economy is strong, there are many slipways, and steel can't run out. Therefore, it is of course faster to manufacture than Japan.

In fact, in Japan during World War II, it was not because of the slow speed of shipbuilding at all, but because of the lack of steel to build ships. Even the steel used for the Yamato-class battleships is made of scrap steel purchased from ships to be dismantled by Britain and the United States.

After Japan formed an alliance with Mustache, Britain and the United States cut off the supply of steel, and shipbuilding had to stop. And the United States is rich in iron ore because of the abundance of iron ore in the Great Lakes region. Therefore, people do not take steel seriously. Even the decommissioned warships are not recycled, and they are directly used as target ships to practice shooting for the navy.

After all, Japan lost in resources. As for the United States, it has long been psychologically prepared to lose a large number of free ships. It is true that some freewheels broke by themselves. However, most of the Liberty ships successfully completed their war missions. Even, many have exceeded the design life of 5 years.

...

Of course, that was the case in World War II. On Marin's side, after considering the urgent need for ships, he also decided to imitate Lao Mei's dumplings to make free ships and build a batch of transport ships. Lifespan doesn't matter, what matters is that it will be manufactured and put into use this year.

Therefore, Marin directly asked people to build a batch of drying kilns for drying wood, which can also be called wood drying kilns. However, the wood drying kiln developed by Marin is an earthen kiln, not a drying kiln using modern technology.

To put it bluntly, it is a drying table in the form of a kang. Then, the one with the lid on it. As for passing airflow? Sorry, there is no blower, so the only way is to heat and dry the soil with a kang. At most, the hydraulic bellows can give some wind, but it is far from the blower.

As for the introduction of water vapor or ammonia gas, Marin didn't understand, so he simply dried it slowly at a medium temperature of sixty to seventy degrees, just like drying dehydrated vegetables.

Although this drying method is not very scientific, it will cause the dehydration of the inner cell wall of the wood, and may even cause the wood to crack. But Marin doesn't care, just throw it away if it cracks. Anyway, there is wood everywhere in North America, we can afford to throw it away!

And through drying in a drying kiln, the shipyards in Beihai State quickly obtained a large amount of wood that can be used for shipbuilding. Although the boats made of this kind of fast-heated and dried wood may have a shorter lifespan, maybe only a few years, and they are not as good as those wooden boats that last for decades, but the North Sea country, which has a large virgin forest in North America, can afford to lose it.

For Marin, time and transportation capacity are the most important. Moreover, after the bottom of the ship is covered with stainless steel sheets, the wood of these ships may have a lifespan of more than ten years because they are not in direct contact with seawater.

...

In this way, several shipyards in the North Sea State, under the special request of Marin, began to engage in heating and drying, and began to manufacture a large number of poor-quality ships, but they were better at manufacturing fast ships. The model it manufactured is naturally the most commonly used Class 250 armed merchant ship in Beihai.

Because the production mode of division of labor and cooperation has been adopted for a long time, it is foreseeable that the shipyards in Beihai will be able to manufacture a large number of new 250-type inferior armed merchant ships in a short time. After all, as long as each part is produced well, the master craftsmen can assemble it directly. And because the requirements are low, when assembling, there is no need to wait for the wood stress and paint to dry, just assemble it like building blocks. Tung oil raw lacquer and so on are also dried directly. In this way, the speed must be accelerated!

In order to distinguish it from the old 250 merchant ships, Marin named these improvised ships of poor quality as 250B...
