"It has long been said that Wei was rich. Now it seems that we have seriously underestimated the king of Wei. "
Pang Yukun stood beside Xiao Ming, with the shadow of a sailboat in his eyes, showing a light layer of worry.
”Not only the king of Wei, but also any of his vassal kings are not as down-to-earth as his own. However, we don't have to belittle ourselves. As long as we are down-to-earth, it's only a matter of time before we surpass them. "Xiao Ming said confidently.
One hundred thousand slaves and three million tons of grain are another catalyst for him, which is enough to make his plan move forward quickly.
Pang Yukun opened his mouth. He wanted to say that what he lacked most was time, but his words stopped again. The future is unpredictable. Who can say what.
If God blesses the king of Qi, it will be plain sailing in the future.
This time, Chen Qi and Chen Wenlong came, and Zhang Liang said: "these warships are built by Ding shipyard in Jinling City. We went there when my father died. They are really bigger than our shipyard, and there are many craftsmen who are proficient in warship construction."
"Don't grow other people's ambition and destroy yourself. The warship drawings I gave you are not weak." Xiao Ming said.
"Your Highness is right." Zhang Liang is still marveling at Xiao Ming's warship drawings. "This time, his Highness has allocated 10000 slaves to the shipyard. We really have enough manpower. I promise that we can launch five galleons this year. "
Xiao Ming nodded," that's good. "
When the shipyard was restored, Xiao Ming did not provide too much labor for the shipyard, but gave a large number of slaves to the workshop area. In his opinion, only when the production capacity of the workshop area was improved, could sufficient spare parts be provided for the shipyard.
Now 100000 slaves have entered Qingzhou, and they have enough labor. He allocated it to the shipyard for the first time. During this period, Zhang Liang's research and development of the Galen ship has been basically completed, and the technical backbone is available. The following is the construction stage.
Ten thousand people build five galleons a year, and with the cooperation of the workshop area, there is basically no problem.
After receiving the first batch of materials and slaves, Xiao Ming and Zhang Liang went to the shipyard. For such a long time, Zhang Liang and others have been restoring the facilities in the shipyard, and now they have restored 7788.
At the shipyard in the lower reaches of the Tuojiang River, Xiao Ming saw some craftsmen making the keel of the Galen. This is the main supporting structure of the Galen, which is similar to the beam of a house.
Seeing the busy craftsmen on the Bank of the river, Xiao Ming suddenly remembered one thing. He said, "there is one thing that I forgot. Is there still one thing missing in our shipyard?"
"Your Highness, please make it clear." Zhang Liang did not understand.
Xiao Ming said slowly, "dry dock."
"Dry dock?" Zhang Liang was stunned.
Xiao Ming didn't expect Zhang Liang to understand, so he explained that the dry dock was actually a building structure similar to a production workshop.
But this structure is used to produce windsurfing warships, with three sides closed and one side adjacent to the water. The ships are built in dry dock and can also be used for future maintenance.
And all kinds of construction equipment are set on both sides of the dry dock, which can facilitate the construction. Even in modern times, the dry dock is still an essential facility for building ships.
Naturally, Xiao Ming didn't expect to be able to build a modern dry dock, but he could do it in a simple way. He also wanted to standardize the shipbuilding industry in Dayu, which could greatly speed up the production of Galen ships.
Zhang Liang's family has been building ships for generations. He immediately understood the concept and said excitedly, "Your Highness, if this dry dock is built, it can be standardized and mass-produced Galen ships."
"Yes, dry docks are different for each tonnage of sail warship. Well, you can come to me in your spare time and I'll teach you some shipbuilding knowledge." Xiao Ming said.
Zhang Liang nodded and looked excited. Xiao Ming showed him unprecedented shipbuilding technology, which was a new page in the history of shipbuilding for him.
In fact, the shipyard in Dayu is just a simple shed with some woodworking equipment. Xiao Ming is not interested in such a shipyard.
After a brief look, he left. In addition, he asked Zhang Liang to go to Bowen school to study. Now that he has enough staff, his plans can be implemented. Otherwise, like Galen, it will have to be delayed.
When he arrived at the palace, Xiao Ming was not idle. Instead, he wrote down the knowledge in his mind and turned it into one textbook after another.
These textbooks include mathematics, chemistry, physics and various technical materials.
He wants to make use of these technical materials to build Bowen school into the first modern comprehensive university in Dayu and provide a continuous stream of talents for Qingzhou.
Xiao Ming wrote all these materials in vernacular. The students of Bowen school should not only understand the Da Yu characters, but also the vernacular characters. In fact, as long as they can understand the vernacular characters, the traditional characters are not a problem. Therefore, Xiao Ming mainly teaches the vernacular characters.
In the next few days, the slaves that the king of Wei promised to Xiao Ming arrived one after another. Xiao Ming divided these slaves into 70000 people and gave them to the workshop area, and the remaining 20000 people to the mine.
With the arrival of 100000 slaves and the continuous sale of slaves by Liang Dahai, the workshop area, which gained a lot of labor, began to expand under the guidance of Xiao Ming.First of all, the steel workshop expanded its production scale. Xiao Ming increased the number of workers in the steel workshop to 30000, which is already the number of workers in a large steel plant in modern times.
But here, the production capacity of 30000 people is only equivalent to that of a small steel plant, but for Xiao Ming, this is enough for the time being. Most of the remaining forty thousand of the
left the lathe workshop, and the rest were to the distillery, perfume workshop, cement workshop and so on.
After the distribution of 100000 people ended, the industrial park was expanded immediately under the leadership of Chen Wenlong, and a large industrial park will slowly stand up in the north of Qingzhou.
"Your Highness, these slaves are mixed up and sent by the king of Wei. I'm afraid it's inevitable that some restless people will mingle with them." It's a rare event to build a workshop area with 100000 people.
There was a lot of noise this time. Pang Yukun, who had never been interested in the workshop area, also came.
"Of course I know that." Xiao Ming looked at the slaves who were pushing the sand and building the cement factory, and said, "the people in the left and right secret guards have arranged for people to monitor these slaves. Those who are uneasy will be killed to ensure that they can't get out of the workshop."
Pang Yukun nodded, and Xiao Ming's methods became more and more fierce, but this is the quality of a hero. He should be generous to his own people and cruel to the enemy.
"By the way, your highness, I've already thought about the location of Bowen school. The only place suitable for building Bowen school in Qingzhou City is liuyunfang in the west of the city. There are only a few families in that place. Just give some money to resettle them."
