Rebirth of Prince Gong's Mansion

Chapter 494 Vigorous Development
Walking on the street in plain clothes, what he saw was the backward scene and the poverty of the people at the lowest level. Fan Ze fell into deep thought.

I remember seeing a piece of content, that is, when the Eight-Power Allied Forces attacked the capital, the common people helped to lift the ladder.

From this content, we can know that the common people don't care who is in power, they only know that their lives are poor and they need someone to change.

Therefore, Fan Ze also deeply understands that the biggest problem facing the country right now is the problem of changing the living conditions of ordinary people.

"What's the situation with those people in the capital?" Fan Ze asked casually.

Turan whispered: "What we found out is that there are many people who are secretly contacting. They probably plan to resist the imperial decree."

More and more decrees have been issued recently, one of the most important of which is not to collect miscellaneous donations, etc., which has touched the interests of the majority of people.

Fan Ze felt that he couldn't afford to wait. The West is developing rapidly, and the country is still closed. If this continues, even if he can kill those outsiders, he still can't change the status quo.

Soon, Fan Ze came to Huangzhuang in a capital city.

After entering here, Fan Ze looked around and saw that there were already many people busy here.

"The cement factory needs to recruit a lot of workers. Isn't there so many refugees in the capital? We should recruit as many as possible for those who can work. We need to solve their housing and food. If they have families, let them bring their families. , there are a lot of people who need it anyway.”

"Everything is done according to your will. This Huangzhuang has developed into a cement factory."

Fan Ze nodded slightly. What he wants to develop now is industry. For Daqing, things like cement are considered a kind of industry.

As far as Fan Ze knows, cement was invented by the British in 1824, which is still a few years away from now. At the beginning, clay and limestone were used. The materials are relatively simple, but there are corresponding proportions. Calcining can form clinker, and then grinding can directly form cement. The color of cement after hardening is similar to that of building stones.Later, with the advancement of science and technology, there are more and more types of cement, and some other materials can also be added to it, which can also enhance the performance of cement.

Fan Ze has some more advanced knowledge, so he naturally wants to get this thing out.

To be honest, after seeing the ground conditions in the capital, Fan Ze felt that cement would be useless without getting it out.

After watching it for a while, I have to say that the eunuchs are really easy to use. They can arrange many things very well as long as they receive the job.

Fan Ze also found that the eunuch here had strictly arranged what he requested, and there was nothing wrong with it, so he praised the eunuch in charge.

"The next step is to set up a main person in charge for each project, and then several deputy positions to form a management team."

Fan Ze said something to Xiao Shanzi.

"Please don't worry, my lord, I will definitely get things done."

"How is the iron ore factory in Miyun now?"

Fan Ze has always lived in the capital, so he naturally knows a lot about it. He remembers that there is a Shouyun Iron Mine in Miyun, and now he is also short of iron. Naturally, he wants to build an iron factory there.

"The land there is already owned by Huangzhuang. Now that it has been designated as an iron factory, a large number of refugees have been recruited to work in it. Iron will be produced soon."

"Iron is only the most elementary. The plan there is a steel factory. I have given you the steel smelting technology. Let people conduct research and come up with it."

"Don't worry, the emperor, since the order was issued to greatly increase the treatment of artisans, the enthusiasm of the artisans has been high."

"Although our dynasty has abolished the artisan household system, the exploitation of craftsmen is still very serious. They are the future of our dynasty and the hope of development. As long as craftsmen make contributions, they can enter the dynasty as officials."

Fan Ze also knows that these things have touched the interests of many people. They look down on craftsmen. However, with the development of science and technology, these talents are the main force. Therefore, Fan Ze has recently issued various assessments and rewards for craftsmen. As long as it reaches a certain level, it is possible to be an official or even a high-ranking official. The Royal Science and Technology Department is a place that provides a stage for craftsmen.

With the arrival of Europeans, all kinds of commodity dumping will come, Fan Ze does not want to see such a situation, so now he has brought all kinds of European commodities, and Huangzhuang all over the place is changing In addition to the cultivation of grain, each Huangzhuang has an industrial product production.

Soap, kerosene, matches, glass, clocks, telescopes, carriages, mechanical locks, movies, cameras...

Fan Ze has the ability to fly in the sky, as long as he sees things in Europe, he will try his best to get them back.

Now the Royal Academy of Sciences gathers a large number of craftsmen. They are not stupid, and many of them are very smart. They didn’t know what to do before, and their thinking was not open. Now they saw the technical materials brought by Fan Ze, and they immediately fell into deep thought. entered into the research.

Fan Ze is also satisfied with everyone's abilities. Many things are actually not complicated, but they are not developing in that direction.

As some people researched some products and were promoted to officials by the court, the enthusiasm of the craftsmen further increased.

In addition to the steel plant in Miyun, iron and steel plants have been established in many iron-producing places across the country.

After the construction of so many factories, Fan Ze felt that the issue of power generation must be carried out.

I remember that Faraday first discovered the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction in 1831, and then obtained the method of generating alternating current. He also invented the disc generator, which was the first generator created by human beings.

Fan Ze planned to advance this matter, so he took out some technologies in this area and handed them over to those crazy craftsmen of the Royal Academy of Sciences.

Fan Ze went to check the situation of the researched firearms again. He believed that war with the Europeans would happen soon, and it would be impossible without sufficient thermal weapons. After reading it, he was satisfied. Based on the original muskets and flames In fact, according to some of my own suggestions, the craftsmen have vigorously improved it, and the power has naturally been greatly improved.

Fan Ze didn't say a lot of things. The various Western products he brought back from Europe into his portable space are now selling very well, and he has made a lot of money, which has been invested in the construction of Huangzhuang in various places. The army is also supported by the money. As Huangzhuang is about to generate income, he believes that raising the army is no problem.
