The Tang Dynasty started from saving Empress Changsun

Besides, after the food distribution, Niu San became the awl that came out of his pocket, and he had a certain right to speak among this group of workers.

Knowing that Chen Jingke intends to cultivate a role model, Bu Wen naturally wouldn't sing the opposite, and was kind to him.

This further accentuated his status.

After that, many people began to surround him and say flattering words.

Niu San, who had never enjoyed this kind of treatment, couldn't help feeling a little elated, and spoke a lot louder.

For what others said, "take more care of me", it is also a big deal.

Bu Wen and others just watched with cold eyes and said nothing.

The opportunity is given to you, whether you can seize it is your own business, and I have no obligation to remind you.

Only Xiao'e watched all this worriedly, but it was hard for her to go up and say anything at this time when there were so many people.

After eating, everyone started to walk with vigor, and they stopped and stopped until late afternoon and finally arrived at the factory.

Seeing such a huge workshop, everyone was very excited, and at the same time let go of the last worry in their hearts.

Zixiaoguan recruited workers to work, not to do anything to them.

But what they didn't expect was yet to come. The factory arranged accommodation for them.

Unmarried people live in a dormitory for four people, and couples can have their own single room.

This is not a big deal, and what they didn't expect was that daily necessities, bedding, clothes, etc. were also distributed.

This is a brand new futon, made of cotton.

There are six sets of clothes, two sets for spring and autumn, two sets for summer, and two sets for winter. They are also brand new, and they are called work clothes.

This makes the people in the slums who have never worn new clothes or used new things all their lives can hardly believe their eyes.

This fact alone gave them a sense of identity with this factory.

After dividing these up, I arranged to go to the bathhouse to take a bath and so on.

After all this work, I went to the cafeteria to eat. The sumptuous food directly turned everyone into a 'rice bucket', and everyone couldn't straighten their waists.

When resting at night, Niu San wore brand new clothes and kept walking around, looking here and there, feeling that everything was new.

Xiao'e was also wearing new clothes, but the women's clothes had an extra blue bouquet to distinguish them from the men's clothes.

But there was not much joy on her face, but she said seriously: "Lang Jun, I have something to say to you."

Niu San didn't realize what she was going to say, seeing her like this, he asked, "Why do you look unhappy, is it okay now?"

"New clothes, I've always wanted to buy you..."

Xiao'e interrupted him and said, "I'd rather not have new clothes than see you look like this."

Niu San frowned, and said unhappily, "What's wrong with me?"

Xiao'e said: "You are swollen, and you promised so many things to others on the way."

Niu San suddenly realized, and then said indifferently: "I thought what were you talking about, you must not forget your roots in life, we came out of the slums together, so naturally we have to take care of each other."

"And then they will obey me and listen to me... You are a woman and don't understand these things."

...

Xiao'e said: "I don't understand so many principles, but I know that the nobles praise you because they hope you can help them honestly."

"You are so inflated without doing a single thing, will you like it?"

"Do you think you are better than the capable people under the nobleman? Can the nobleman find no one to do things without you?"

"Anyway, if it were me, I would definitely not use you."

"At that time, you will lose the trust of the nobleman. How can you honor those promises? At that time, you will only become the laughing stock of others."

Niu San was shocked into a cold sweat, he was not stupid after all, he just got carried away when he was flattered by everyone in excitement.

At this time Jing Xiao'e reminded her and suddenly came to her senses.

That's right, I don't know a single word, and I don't know anything except a little wit, so why should you use me?
If you want to be reused, you can only work hard and hard, otherwise you will definitely be abandoned.

Thinking of this, he was still a little angry, and said sincerely: "Xiao'e, thank you, if you hadn't reminded me, I would almost have made a big mistake."

Seeing him like this, Xiao'e finally showed a smile on her face, and said: "Thank you for saying something to me, it's all part of your life, and we will do things honestly from now on."

She had just washed and washed, and put on a new suit of clothes, her smile was unexpectedly charming like never before.

Niu San's eyes became hot all of a sudden, and he approached her calmly, then hugged her and gnawed on her face.

Xiao'e said disgustedly: "Oh, the new clothes are wrinkled."

Niu San didn't care about his clothes, he hugged her and rolled on the bed.

……

The training officially started on the second day, and more than 400 people were divided into ten classes.

What is taught is not all kinds of skills, but the factory's rules and regulations, common sense of life hygiene, and basic Chinese and mathematics. The textbooks are all compiled by Zixiaoguan.

They are: Hygiene and Epidemic Prevention Handbook, Chinese (Grade [-]), Mathematics (Grade [-]).

This surprised everyone again, and they couldn't figure out what Zixiaoguan was going to do.

They understand the rules and regulations, what do the latter three want to do?
But everyone is not stupid. No matter what Zixiao thinks about doing, being able to read and write is a good thing for them that they can't find with lanterns. Naturally, they learn very hard.

Not far away, looking at the people in class, Li Chengqian asked in puzzlement: "Why do you want to teach them to read and write? Is it necessary?"

Chen Jingke nodded solemnly and said: "Yes, take the steam engine and loom as examples, you have seen how complicated it is."

"If you want to produce it, you must strictly follow the drawings. If these people can't understand the drawings, how can you produce them?"

"It can't be the same as before, it all depends on everyone's groping, and then assemble it bit by bit?"

"So it is necessary to provide them with the most basic training."

Li Chengqian recalled the complex parts of the steam engine and the loom, and had to agree with his reason, but he still said:

"Mastering characters and arithmetic is not that simple. The training is only half a month. How much can they learn?"

Chen Jingke said with a smile: "The training is only for half a month, but there will be evening classes in the future. Take an hour every day after get off work to teach them these knowledge."

...

"Besides, we don't expect them to take the imperial examination, as long as they can recognize common characters, use various measuring tools, and perform simple addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division calculations.

"As long as you are not born a fool, it is not difficult to learn these."

Li Chengqian finally stopped questioning, and said: "It seems that you have considered everything again."

Chen Jingke said with a smile: "The elders of the family have long considered things, but I just follow their methods."

Li Chengqian nodded and didn't ask any more questions. He was used to Chen Jingke's style. In short, everything was taught by the elders of the family.

In his mouth, the elders of the family are omnipotent.

But from the current point of view, although it cannot be said to be omnipotent, the Chen family is indeed very strong, all-round kind.

This is why Li Shimin agreed to innovation so easily.

The reason is very simple, since the Chen family has researched all these things, it means that this road can be taken.

Also, who can guarantee that these research results of the Chen family will not be learned by others?What if there are other descendants besides Chen Jingke?

If those forces that have obtained research results vigorously develop and invade Datang in turn, how will they respond?

Instead of regretting it when the time comes, it is better to carry out selective and gradual reforms.

In a word, since it is impossible to determine where the potential enemy is, then make yourself stronger.

As long as I am strong enough, I am not afraid of any opponent.

After that, the two went to the academy together, and went straight to the workshop area.

Before entering the door, I heard a dense "bang bang bang" sound, which is the sound of the loom running.

Just by listening to the intensity of the sound, you can tell that the speed of operation is faster than yesterday.

Walking into the workshop, I found that everyone stood watching from a distance.Only Li Tai and a few people, wearing thick full body armor, held up their shields to observe the situation of the machine.

This is not a fuss, but a measure for safety reasons.

It seems that the machine is purely hand rubbed out, and the parts are not very tightly combined.

When it is running, there will be problems such as loose screws from time to time.

With such a high-speed machine, a single screw that falls off may become a bullet that penetrates a person's body.

Armor and shields are effective against such attacks.

In a word, safety is above all else.

Chen Jingke asked Zhao Youchang next to him, "How is it now?"

Zhao Youchang said excitedly: "Ten times, the machine has been driven to ten times the normal speed, and there is no major problem."

Chen Jingke couldn't help but feel happy. The speed ten times that of a normal person has already given this machine economic value.

But obviously, ten times the speed is not the limit of this machine, nor can it satisfy Li Tai and the others.

What they want is fifteen times, twenty times or even greater speed.

At this time Li Chengqian asked: "How long will it take to finalize?"

This Chen Jingke knew it himself, and said: "We must first test its limit speed, and then test its lifespan...it will be finalized in about a month."

"However, it is ready for production now, and some simple parts can be produced now."

Li Chengqian said happily: "That's great, I really want to find something to see the opening of a textile factory."

...

……

After watching for a while, Chen Jingke asked Li Tai to be called over.

The three came outside the house together, and Li Chengqian said with concern: "Qingque must pay attention to safety."

Li Tai nodded and said, "Thank you brother for your concern, I will be careful."

Li Chengqian didn't say anything.

Chen Jingke said at the right time: "Second brother, the loom is almost..."

Li Tai frowned, interrupted him, and said, "Don't call me dick, I always feel weird when you call like that."

There was a smile on the corner of Chen Jingke's mouth, and he quickly hid it, pretending to be helpless and said: "Hey, it's okay, you will slander people."

"The loom is almost finished, and the remaining adjustments can be left to others."

"Lead the team to study the train. Don't wait until the railway is laid and the train is still gone."

Li Tai had no objection, and said, "I'm going to do this even if you don't tell me, but if I want to build trains, the workshop needs to be remodeled."

Chen Jingke waved his hand and said, "You should discuss this with Cheng Laoer. I don't know as much about building trains as you do. You just have to figure out how to improve it."

Li Tai nodded and said: "That's it, I'll go to see the loom again, if you have nothing to do, you can go."

After speaking, he turned around and entered the workshop.

Chen Jingke complained: "Be polite to me, or else I'll kick you out, and someone else will lead the team to do research."

Li Tai looked back at him sideways, and said, "If you dare to try another one, your face will be swollen."

"Haha..." Li Chengqian couldn't help laughing.

I was more or less envious in my heart, they could live easily and recklessly, but he couldn't.

On the way back, I saw many recruited workers clearing the debris on the road, some leveling the road, and some driving oxen and pulling stone rollers to compact the road.

This is the first step in laying the rails, followed by laying stones, fixing the sleeper rails, etc., which is very troublesome.

Chen Jingke and Li Chengqian didn't stop there, and there was nothing interesting about building roads.

All the way to the gate of the city, I saw a group of envoys entering Chang'an.

Chen Jingke asked: "Why are there still envoys coming to Hajj at this time? Or is there a war?"

When the vassal states fought, the one who was bullied would come to Chang'an and cry, begging his father to uphold justice.

Li Chengqian said with a smile: "That's not the case. This should be an envoy from Liugui Country. This is the first time they have sent an envoy on a pilgrimage."

Chen Jingke asked: "Where is Liugui Country? Why haven't I heard of this name?"

Never heard of it in previous lives.

Li Chengqian said: "Their country is in the northeast of Heishuimohe, which is the peninsula near the Arctic Strait. I heard that they are very poor."

"It is said to be a country, but it is actually a tribal alliance. Usually everyone lives separately, and when they encounter foreign enemies, they send troops to resist together."

"It is said that they can organize an army of tens of thousands of people at most, which is not a small force in the extremely cold place."

After Chen Jingke thought about it, he knew where the country of wandering ghosts was.

The Kamchatka peninsula where the polar bears lived in the previous life, the environment there was very harsh. I didn't expect that there would be people inhabiting it at this time.

Thinking of the terrain there, he said in his heart, "This is a very good opportunity. We can build a naval wharf and supply base there."

"Then our navy can patrol here, and the expedition ship can also rest and resupply here to prepare for the follow-up exploration of the Extreme Northern Passage."

It can even be used as a transit point to the opposite continent.

Li Chengqian nodded and said: "Aye and I also have the same idea, so this time the standard of receiving the ghost country is relatively high, and we will discuss with them later on the construction of the pier and supply base."

Seeing Li Shimin, they all thought of it, and Chen Jingke didn't say anything.

After observing behind the envoys for a while, the two went home separately.

Li Chengqian went to the palace, while Chen Jingke returned to Zixiao temple.

In the past few days, I have been busy recruiting people for the factory, and I have to worry about recruiting people for the railway construction, and I am also busy with the construction of the factory and the academy.

Even though he is the hands-off shopkeeper, he only needs to use his words, but he is still busy walking around.

Now that the matter has come to an end, he can finally take a lazy rest.
