What to do with a full-scale life

Chapter 608 Progress Is Invisible

If you want to talk about heaven, it must not be there yet, but the convenience brought by high-speed climbing technology is for everyone to enjoy, first of all, the overall improvement of work efficiency.

A person like Brother Zhang who can compare weights and measures with his hands, and has enough materials to knead controllable nuclear fusion with his bare hands. In theory, he is a person who masters the entire industrial system. The biggest difference between science and engineering and liberal arts lies in the professional barriers. I can add two sentences, so let’s talk about it separately. Su Shi can write the water melody song Tou Mingyue, and others can also write Linjiang Fairy Spring Outing for Three Days Eating Earthworms. Although one is beautiful and the other is funny, they can write it after all.

But science is different, where the professional barriers are placed, and things that I can understand, understand, or even think are simple, in the eyes of others, they are just goddamn legends.

For example, for Brother Zhang, it is a steam-powered trolley car that can be started by pouring molten iron with a mold and adding water with a few sets of hands. The horsepower can reach sixty. The charcoal-burning car can use coal or charcoal after Zhang Ge's magic transformation, and can even burn firewood and garbage, as long as it can be burned, it can be used to drive it.

This thing has been used until the early 90s of the last century. It is a bit exaggerated for the city, but it is indeed very marketable in the countryside. After all, [-] horsepower is not suitable for the environment and it is durable. This environment is the most suitable Not a good area anymore.

And it has a full sixty horsepower. This is the most perfect agricultural tool in this era. It’s not that Brother Zhang can’t make a combine harvester, but the industry that supports the combine harvester needs oil refineries, rubber factories, chemical plants, and automated processing. Plants, etc., one is the time cost is too large and the other is insufficient raw material quota, after all, the simple nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers are still a problem.

However, the problem of fertilizers is not very big for the time being, because the total amount of crops is still not enough, and the existing fertilizer treatment methods can still meet the needs of crop fertilizers for the time being.

Of course, this is something in the general direction. The improvement of the overall industrial capacity brings more rapid improvement in economic benefits. Now Yuhang County has three pillar industries, ironware, porcelain, glassware, porcelain and glassware. More to say, pure technical barriers, the kind that experts think is simple and yuppie, but laymen just can't understand it.

However, there should be no technical barriers for ironware, but there are three large and collective steel factories in Yuhang, and the products of these three companies cannot be imitated by others.

Yuhang No. 120 Iron and Steel Factory, the first factory is characterized by the development of civilian products. It is said to be a steel factory, but in fact it also has aluminum-making technology. Although the production capacity is not large, the annual output has reached [-] tons, but it is enough to satisfy large Some people's lives needed it. A factory of aluminum pots was even exported to the Liao Kingdom and the prairie. Because it is not iron, it does not violate the ban.

In addition to aluminum products, the quality of civilian products such as scissors and kitchen knives in the first factory is also top-notch. The factory's guide price is 150 Wen, which is still a high-end kitchen knife of the same quality.

This price directly impacted the forging industry of the entire Great Song Dynasty. Many people lost their jobs because of this, but at the same time more people got jobs because of it.

The No. [-] Iron and Steel Plant mainly produces alloy products. Now the most products are stainless steel and various alloys, which are mainly used in the field of civil building materials. Now in Yuhang, aluminum alloy glass windows have become popular. It is much better to replace the window with a beautiful and bright glass than the paper window before.

As for the third steel plant, it is the smallest among the three steel plants, but it is the most confidential, because this steel plant mainly processes special steel products, such as wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant hollow pipes, which can generally be used to make water pipes , but if the specifications are changed and rifling is added, you will understand everything.

In addition to the three core iron and steel factories, there are two garment factories, the first and the second, and the clothing factories are equipped with [-] mu of cotton fields newly opened up this year.

Real men can do the full set if they want to do it, and the half set is not enjoyable.

One of the core issues restricting the development here is the high-quality workforce. Before the second and third technicians graduate, almost all factories are unable to start working at full capacity, and the production capacity is less than 50.00% of the peak.In other words, the equipment is waiting for people instead of people for equipment. As long as the job training is over, a large number of industrial workers can be directly filled in.

Then there is the problem of raw materials, oil, rubber, sugar cane, various minerals, and some special raw materials, etc., these are the prerequisites for restricting industrial development and lighting up the technology tree, and now the scale of 10 people in Yuhang is too large. Incapable of extending tentacles further afield.

But even so, compared with the tribal economic society that is still slash-and-burn in this slightly remote place, its advanced nature is no less than the difference between the planet Cybertron and the earth.

Industry drives the economy. Under the premise of a good economy, social conflicts will inevitably decrease, so the overall degree of prosperity will naturally be further improved.

More importantly, the executor of this place is someone who will never go wrong. He is like a robot, planning every step perfectly, and the speed of handling problems is also surprising.

A society that does not require trial and error, is seamless throughout the process, and never makes mistakes in judgment, can develop at a rate ranging from ten to 200 years a year.There is no need to worry about the technology tree, the materials are enough for Brother Zhang to build a nuclear power plant for the county tomorrow.

Exaggeration, what exaggeration? You have to be careful in your mother's dreams, how aggrieved you will be in that life.

But if so, in the eyes of people like Zhao Xu, this place is exaggerated enough. After all, Brother Zhang is dreaming, they are not, they are the aborigines in the dream, and they are used to watching the sky and eating. In life, at first sight of fish farming in cages, people are shocked.

Zhao Xu has been here for three days. During the three days, except for the first day when he had diarrhea because he ate unclean food on the road, he was dragged to the county hospital for an injection, and the remaining two days He was wandering around the county.

It's not that he hasn't seen dense commerce and trade. When he was in Bianliang, Tokyo, it was extremely prosperous.But it is indeed the first time he has seen such a fast business.

There is a special way of shopping in the county, that is, the passing foreign businessmen first go to a place called a bank in the county to exchange the special banknotes here, and then take the banknotes to buy things with the merchants. Let them transfer the goods from the warehouse, and after getting the receipt, play here for a few days and the goods will be ready. If the shipment is small, you can buy them directly. When you leave, you can go to the bank to exchange them for Tongbao. Some people would not choose to exchange them, because the banknotes here are convenient, valuable and cannot be counterfeited, and are even safer than silver ingots. There are even many Liao merchants who come here to exchange banknotes, because the Liao There is a counterfeit bank crisis in the country, which scares all these rich people.

In just a few years, the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal has gone from being ignored to now passing by thousands of sails. A large amount of goods are handled at the port every day. Although the population is not large, Zhao Xu feels that this place may be bigger than Lin'an Prefecture now. rich.

And what shocked Zhao Xu most was the twenty huge granaries in the core area of ​​the county. He was someone who had seen official granaries, but even the largest official granaries he had seen were not as good as five of these granaries. One-tenth of the size, a huge warehouse stands here with a clear responsible person marked on it. Whether it is flooded, burned or whatever, all accidents require this responsible person to bear the consequences. Indistinct.

But as the royal family and the emperor grandson who also assisted his father in supervising the country, he deeply knows that such a mechanism is too important. A few years ago, they went to a certain place in the south of the Yangtze River to check for disaster relief. I carry fire pockets with me and throw them around. The amount of loss basically matches the amount of deficit. Everyone with a discerning eye knows what's going on, but even if there is no evidence, it's not much use to get angry.

But where this kind of responsibility is accurate to the people, it is relatively not so much. Who doesn’t know that if the food in this kind of warehouse is moved, the family will be ransacked and the whole family will be confiscated. Now these food officials even have to report how much the rats eat every day. Not to mention a sudden fire.

"This is a good idea." Zhao Xu took a pen and wrote down everything here.

Afterwards, he came to a construction site. It happened to be the time when the workers were eating. There were food prepared on the construction site. Zhao Xu went up to have a look. Egg.

He looked at the side for a while, then took advantage of a gap and walked over, squatted down next to a young man who was working, and asked curiously: "Are you working here in corvee or not?"

"Whoever doesn't break the law will go to serve corvée, for the money." The young man spoke straightforwardly, he took two bites from a large porcelain bowl and turned to glance at the luxuriously dressed Zhao Xu: "Thirty coins a day, Pack two meals."

"Then you are all locals?"

"No, I'm from Hefei, some of them are from Huizhou, some are from Raozhou."

"Oh? Then why do you come here to work?"

The young man wiped his mouth, picked up the water next to him, took a sip and said, "Someone went to the village to recruit people. We have a lot of mountains and little fields, so we came out to work. It costs 150 yuan a day, including food and housing. It's okay. The village is strong."

"They all come like this?"

"Ah."

Zhao Xu stood up and took a look. There were more than a thousand people up and down the entire construction site. Some of these people were developing wasteland and some were building canals. , everyone is eating, which is quite spectacular.

"Are you guys full from this meal?"

"One spoonful of vegetables per person, and you can eat whatever you want. There is oil and water in the dishes, and there is an egg every now and then. There is nothing like this in the village during the Chinese New Year." The young man said with a smile: "After a while, my third brother will come over and work for two years. Nian goes home and builds a house for him to marry a wife."

Zhao Xu thanked him, got up and looked at the endless wasteland, and sighed softly. It is obviously not easy to work here, but these people look at it with joy, one can imagine that they have had a lot of life in the past. How bitter.

Zhao Xu felt a little ashamed to talk about living and working in peace and contentment.

At this time, after wandering around for a few times, he was also hungry, so he asked the young man just now where there was a place to eat. The young man was honest, looked up at Zhao Xu again, and said: "There is a room ahead. There is food for five Wen over there, if you are willing to spend five Wen more, you can still get some wine and drink, but I am afraid that you, the young master of a rich family, will not be used to it."

Five cents?What can I eat with five cents?Zhao Xu is very curious. One thing about his Zhao family is good until now, that is, although they have produced all kinds of strange things, they have not produced any extravagant royal children, but this is the end of his generation. Because Zhao Xu's No.11 son is named Zhao Ji, the famous Song Huizong is also an outstanding emperor who almost brought the Northern Song Dynasty into the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

Following the path pointed by the young man, Zhao Xu went over to take a look, and there really was a room, with a dozen tables and chairs outside the room, and several large pots in front of it, which were full of vegetables. Five cents is the same as a scoop plus unlimited rice, which makes the business here very hot.

Zhao Xu tried it, but to be honest, the taste was rather mediocre or even unpalatable. It's just that you can't eat a bowl of porridge in the prince's mansion for five cents.

According to the relevant description in Mr. Cheng Minsheng's "Song Dynasty Price Research", the income of peddlers and hawkers on the streets of Bianliang in Tokyo is about 200 yuan a day.Then in terms of purchasing power, a penny is almost the purchasing power of a dollar.

A five-yuan meal includes meat, vegetables and unlimited meals. It’s somewhat unreasonable to pursue the color, fragrance, and shape. The boxed lunch in the Northeast has risen to ten dollars.

After wandering outside for two days, Zhao Xu felt that what he saw was just a drop in the bucket. He felt that there were still many ways to learn in this place, and none of the emperor's techniques he had learned could match.

It seems that there is still a lot to learn in this place, and I am afraid that it will not be finished in a while.

But he didn't go to find his miraculous uncle, because he wanted face... I was really embarrassed to chase after that uncle who was about the same age as him, so he just wrote down what he saw, and then took the time to find it. Go and ask again.

And what is "Uncle" doing at the moment?Uncle is assembling a bolt-action rifle. The shape and workmanship are similar to those of Mosin Nagant. It's not that he thinks that pulling a large bolt is a man's romance, but that the current processing conditions really can't make 56 and a half.

"Is there any problem with the drawings? If mass production, how much can you produce in a month?" Brother Zhang raised his eyelids and looked at the factory manager of Sangang: "Can there be five hundred pieces?"

"Almost, it's just that the good product rate... I'm afraid the subordinates can't guarantee it. The workers are all rushing to work, and the level is somewhat uneven."

Brother Zhang nodded after listening: "Just guarantee a good product rate of around [-]."

He took this unnamed weapon in his hand again, loaded a bullet, and pulled the trigger at a tree in the distance. The huge gunshot and the recoil rebound satisfied him. Nodded: "Bullets are also divided into three types, quarter-charge, half-charge and full-load. Otherwise, the current technology, the barrel can't stand the full-load."

After Brother Zhang finished speaking, he took out his brochure and ticked it: "Where is the next step?"
