European Financial Emperor

033 New Beginnings (2)

East Stellar was slowly becoming a conglomerate.

Recently, in the Netherlands, the entire stake in the shipbuilding company was donated, and the shipbuilding company was also absorbed.

Hwan Lee was developing a power line through this.

Engineers and shipping companies who immigrated to the Netherlands from England on the amnesty of King Willem I worked together day and night to complete the study in three months.

Of course, the mechanism and other designs of the power unit were all done by Lee Hwan.

Hwan Lee looked at the prototype of the power unit that the engineers had installed on the riverside.

“Once it is complete, is it really possible to design an engine of this size and go beyond 25 knots?”

“Sure. We can do more than that as long as we make it as designed.”

The engine system designed by Lee Hwan was able to achieve a maximum speed of 30 knots (about 55 km/h) with 3,000 horsepower dual screws.

Of course, it will depend on the structure and weight of the ship, but if the engine is properly mounted, it could be called the strongest in speed.

Engineers were worried that even if they made this huge screw-type engine by themselves, it would be able to pull a really huge battleship and cross 30 knots.

Of course, since this is simply putting the engine on the finished hull, it will not be able to show 100% of the engine performance.

Furthermore, it was questionable whether it could be equipped with a dual screw.

However, the difference between having this and not having it will be significant.

“Let’s send this to our base and install it on our battleships.”

“Do you install it on other row boxes?”

Since ships are of different sizes depending on their use, the size of the engine must also be different.

Lee Hwan also made engines of various sizes, such as half and one-third of the 3,000 horsepower steam turbine.

This strategy was taken because we did not know how many ships would be used in this fleet configuration, but in the end, it would be very advantageous for East Stellar in terms of technology diversification.

“Let’s install everything.”

“Yes, I understand.”

The steam turbine system devised by Lee Hwan and developed by engineers would be transported directly to the capital Amsterdam, where it would be implanted in the Royal Navy’s line-up, now awaiting launch.

In the morning, Lee Hwan ordered the remodeling of the battleship.

Then someone came running towards him screaming.

“president!”

“John Morgan?”

John Morgan disappeared from the company for a while, but only showed up today.

After running as far as possible and calling Lee Hwan around his neck, he just stood there looking at Lee Hwan without saying a word.

Lee Hwan asked with a soft smile.

“Where did you go and where are you now?”

“… … This is the road where he left this company and was about to die, but he was beaten by his father with a club and caught.”

“Are you dying?”

“yes.”

“Huh, why?”

“I’m sorry.”

“Are you thinking of committing suicide?”

“Because the prophecies of the president were all right, I was so unfair that I was about to die.”

“Would that be embarrassing?”

“… … Even though we are of the same age, you are someone who easily surpasses me. With a good head, he also received the title of nobility. How easy is that?”

Not long ago, Lee Hwan really invested 1 kg of gold and called it a whopping 3.5 kg.

As Lee Hwan’s prediction came true, the price of sugar rose 3.5 times.

In fact, John Morgan was shocked by the price of sugar, which was what he called until recently, and he made an extreme choice with a sense of inferiority and self-doubt.

But now he has changed his mind.

“But now I don’t want to die.”

“You think well.”

“I’ll stick with you for the rest of my life and learn.”

In the meantime, John Morgan seems to have suffered a lot.

The cheeks that fluttered like a bulldog had disappeared, and the old figure full of pride was nowhere to be found.

I didn’t even know if he was lying.

Hana Lee Hwan looked into his eyes and thought that was absolutely not the case.

“You have been desperate.”

“What is it?”

“It means that you are very determined.”

“Right! I will follow you and devote myself to becoming the perfect financier.”

“Yeah, that’s a very good posture.”

Now, without the need for a slave document, he will become Yi Hwan’s loyal subordinate.

He has already decided to follow Lee Hwan and become his own assistant.

“I heard that the way you write your books is very unique. Please teach me that.”

“There’s something I’ve put together, and study it while looking at it.”

“Yes, sir!”

John Morgan somehow had a strong sense of discipline.

Soon, Lee Hwan heard new information from John.

“Oh, come to think of it, when you first ordered me to pick you up, did you say that you were sending someone for bond investment?”

“It was.”

“Then it went well. I heard that the UK signed an agreement to sell real estate and bonds to the Netherlands last time?”

“Oh, right?”

“It is information that others do not know well, but I am only giving it to the boss. If you want to invest, I think it’s best to do it when others don’t know.”

“Where did you get this information?”

“Last time I heard that information was the best, so I scoured the social world without realizing it. Then I happened to pass by and overheard it.”

After all, if I taught one thing, I never forgot that one thing. It means that concentration and learning effect are good.

Lee Hwan saved this information well and was going to use it to make money soon.

***

A few days later, Lee Hwan conducted an interview with the new employee.

The population of Rietterkirk was increasing as time passed, and over 600 migrants arrived in a whopping one month, and the number of merchants was steadily increasing to build shops near factories and research institutes.

This means that many talented people are coming to work for East Stellar.

“Sir, medical doctors have come from Hungary. Apparently, he came to see the announcement posted a while ago.”

Joshua Rose handed Hwan Lee the personal details of the 20 new hires who came in today.

Lee Hwan looks at the details of his personal details that are carefully written on high-quality paper.

The 20 people who came today had a history of serving as military surgeons in the Napoleonic Wars, and they had emigrated to Hungary 4 years ago but lost their jobs and came to Ritterkirk.

“The story is unique. surgeon?”

“Yes, it is. Originally, he was a scholar studying in France, but he was drafted into the French Army and worked as a military doctor. Now, we are developing drugs that are good for various diseases.”

The biggest characteristic of Lee Hwan’s Literkirk was that ‘stragglers’ and ‘species’ were treated well.

The early 19th century was certainly a time of scientific progress, but that did not mean that inventors and scientists were treated unconditionally.

Only those with certain items that could achieve commercial development, or ideas that fit the current paradigm, could survive.

For example, the mass production of cotton, the development of fertilizers to increase the production of agricultural products, and the research that made the mainstream businesses of this era prosperous was thought to be money.

Hana Lee Hwan invested money in more future-oriented and fringe research.

Medicine, Pharmacy, Chemistry, Materials Engineering, Machinery, Electricity, etc. Lee Hwan was interested in, but could not make a lot of money yet, was treated here.

“Let’s accept it. Give me the apartment and tell him to move in.”

“all right.”

“I will be mobilized for research and development from tomorrow, so please ask if you are willing to join the war as a surgeon in the deep sea fleet.”

“I will.”

In the northern Netherlands, Lee Hwan was ridiculed as a ‘head of the geeks’, and even in the same province of Rotterdam, he was branded as a strange closet philosopher.

Still, Lee Hwan didn’t care much.

Anyway, as time goes by, Lee Hwan’s strength will increase.

“Let’s have lunch and go to the research hospital.”

“Are you going to visit again?”

“I think periodic inspections will help researchers find clues quickly.”

Not long ago, Lee Hwan gathered chemists and doctors from France and England to set up a hospital and research institute.

Current medicine is an absurd science that believes in contradictory rumors that shorten the life expectancy of humans as a standard, so it was necessary to correct it.

For this reason, Hwan Lee gathered chemists and doctors together and launched a ‘research hospital’ with 80 medical staff.

Doctors visited the disease several times a day, and the disease also visited the research hospital whenever he had time.

Recently, Lee Hwan published a ‘provisional medical book’ in which he writes down future knowledge as he comes to mind.

Although it is a book made by weaving unknown future knowledge, it can be seen that the essential knowledge is almost completely covered.

However, because the times in which they lived were so different, there were many things that doctors did not understand.

When I visited today, doctors have been asking questions about the immune system.

“You wrote that the vaccinia method prevents diseases by cultivating the body’s immunity. If so, can vaccinations prevent colds and pneumonia?”

By the standards of 2020, it was a very primitive question, but even in this era, we did not even know that diseases are infected by microorganisms and that it can be prevented.

If the growth of these microorganisms could be suppressed or eliminated, at least no one would suffer or die from measles and rubella.

However, the problem was that there is no antibiotic that can effectively eliminate this microorganism.

“All diseases are caused by microorganisms. Then, if you can develop immunity to protect the body from these microorganisms, you can prevent disease. Also, if we can create an antibiotic that is as harmless as possible to the human body, the average human lifespan will be much longer than it is today.”

“Oh oh!”

“Study microbes. And let’s study the human immune system and the circulatory system so that we can treat diseases with medicine.”

“All right! We will do our best!”

Most inventors are poor because they believe their ideas can change the world.

A life of immersion in research rather than a living is a perfect lifestyle for the downfall of the family, but everything changes after they meet Lee Hwan.

They were able to live as people doing the most valuable work in the world.

Lee Hwan pours so much energy and passion into his research.

So, as time passed, more and more good news was bound to come.

“Sir, the development of white powder is almost complete!”

“Oh, right?”

Developing white powder was never an easy task.

If the Mouser family or the Ruger family had been dedicated to this task, development might have been considerably slower.

However, Lee Hwan had a Nobel family.

By meeting people who will make a mark in history, Lee Hwan was getting a great synergy effect.
