Chapter 426

Half a busy month passed in a flash.

While there was not much government affairs during this period, he concentrated on refining Qingzhou's industry with Chen Wenlong.

For Xiao Ming, his goal is to establish a complete industrial system, which will provide all the basic materials to continuously turn scientific and technological goods into reality.

Because of this, in view of Qingzhou's current weak industrial base, it is necessary to refine and upgrade, so that this step will be normalized.

After he and Chen Wenlong finished this work, Li Kaiyuan successfully returned from Chu and arrived at Tuojiang wharf with 300 large-scale merchant ships, 200 medium-sized merchant ships and 20000 craftsmen.

In addition, 13000 craftsmen from the imperial court arrived in Qingzhou the next day under the supervision of Qin Chengming.

"Congratulations, your highness. It's a double blessing today."

Qin Rui gets off the boat and bows to Xiao Ming. This time, he follows Qin Chengming to Qingzhou.

Xiao Ming was stunned when he saw Qin Rui's cheap smile. He didn't expect this guy to appear here. He couldn't help saying, "Qin Rui, why are you here?"

Qin Chengming then came down from the boat and said to Xiao Ming, "Your Highness, this time I'm here with my dog. I hope your highness can take him to teach me."

"You'll see what you've said. I've known Qin Rui since I was a child. I don't deserve the instruction." Xiao Ming said.

Qin Chengming continued: "Your Highness is modest. Now his highness is famous, but his native place is still unknown. I know that his highness attaches great importance to craftsmanship. That's why I let him come to Qingzhou. After all, he will continue to stay in Chang'an. Just like my highness, he can only stay in Qingshui Yamen and do nothing. It's better for him to learn something from his highness and share his worries."

Xiao Ming nods. Like Luo Quan, Qin Chengming clearly wants to push his son to himself. Maybe in their opinion, their son will have a better future in Qingzhou.

Qin ruiben is his best friend, loyalty is no problem, and the investigation of the secret guard also proves that the Qin family is doing their best in the shipbuilding workshop this time.

Moreover, Qin Chengming is responsible for the handicraft industry of Dayu state. In modern words, he is equivalent to the Minister of industry and has rich experience in the handicraft industry management of Dayu state.

Qin Rui is influenced and naturally knows something about it. Now he is refining the industry and setting up his own young governor to govern the industry. Qin Rui may be a good candidate to cultivate a little.

After all, the Ministry of industry is responsible for drafting industry plans and standards, monitoring the daily operation of the industry, promoting technological development and other work, which covers all walks of life. Qin Rui has advantages.

So he said, "you're welcome. Qin Rui and I have always been good friends. I can't wait for him."

Qin Chengming and Qin Rui looked at each other with a smile. Qin Rui said, "Dad, I said that your highness will not refuse. I'm sure it's useful in Qingzhou."

"Don't be complacent. You should try your best to be loyal to your highness in Qingzhou in the future. Don't be ignorant any more." Qin Chengming taught Taoism.

Qin Rui nodded his head.

Xiao Ming doesn't say a word with a smile. When Qin Chengming sends Qin Rui to Qingzhou, he ties himself up with Qingzhou. This time it's a shipbuilding workshop. Next time he may need Qin Chengming to transfer other handicraft industries to Qingzhou.

He has got the news from Fiji that Xiao Wenxuan supports himself everywhere just as he supported the original king of Wei, so he has to find a way to drag the Royal industrial resources to his fiefdom.

After all, his fiefdom, like the contemporary Special Economic Zone, was the focus of attention.

After greeting, Xiao Ming saw that the wharf had been blocked, and the fleet was still far away. At this time, the shipbuilders were coming down from the ship.

"Your Highness, in addition to the craftsmen, my highness also sent some of the tools of the shipbuilding workshop, so that your highness would not rebuild the tools. Moreover, these craftsmen are the core craftsmen of the shipbuilding workshop, and they have the skill of building merchant ships independently. As long as your highness gives them the drawings, they can start construction immediately." Qin Chengming said.

Xiao Ming nodded. It's because there are people in the court who are good at handling affairs. Qin Chengming has done things very well.

"Thank you very much. With 20000 people from the king of Chu, we can set up three large shipbuilding workshops this time." Xiao Ming said.

Now there are more than 10000 people under Zhang Liang's command, and now there are more than 30000 people, which is equivalent to an instant increase of Qingzhou's shipbuilding capacity by three times. In this way, he can launch more than 60 warships a year. After all, today's shipbuilding workshop is slow down because of the construction of class I sail and class II sail warships.

If we only build class III warships, the shipyard should be able to launch 20 galleons.

All the way, they got on a large merchant ship from Chu. Because the merchant ships from Chu were too many, they would arrive in several batches one after another. The first batch came yesterday, and this is the second batch.

"Your Highness, it's a long boat, at least 70 steps." Qin Rui got on the boat and sighed.

In Chang'an, large-scale merchant ships were often moored, but they were generally only fifty yards long."Because these merchant ships are sea going ships, they are bigger and can withstand wind and waves at sea," Xiao said

This time, Xiao Ming asked Li Kaiyuan to go to Chu. He specially asked him to choose a sea going boat, because he needed a boat to cross the sea. If it was a freshwater boat, a medium-sized boat would be enough.

"Seagoing ships? No wonder your highness wants so many craftsmen to build ships. Does your highness want to drive the Dutch away? Hehe, if your highness defeats the Dutch, you don't know where to put the face of the king of Chu. " Qin Rui said with a bad smile.

Xiao Ming doesn't deny that since Qin Rui wants to live in Qingzhou, sooner or later he will know.

As they were saying this, Li Kaiyuan came over from the bow of the boat. He said to Xiao Ming, "Your Highness, the first batch of craftsmen have boarded the boat. Do you want to go to Dengzhou now?"

"Let's go." Xiao Ming said.

Now, many craftsmen come down from the boat and board another boat to Dengzhou. The reason for this is that Xiao Ming disorganizes and reorganizes all these craftsmen, so as to avoid too many craftsmen in the same place in a shipyard. This is also to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Under Xiao Ming's command, Li Kaiyuan ordered 50 large merchant ships to set out.

In Dengzhou, Zhang Liang will be responsible for arranging these craftsmen and leading them to set up the second, third and fourth shipbuilding workshops in Dengzhou.

Looking at the merchant ship slowly leaving the dock, Xiao Ming satisfied with the location of him, he said to Qin Chengming and Qin Rui: "young governor, this long-distance travel to Qingzhou, it's better to play in Qingzhou for a few days, to see the face of Qingzhou."

It's a good start for Xiao Ming that Qin Rui settled in Qingzhou this time, which shows that the dignitaries of Dayu state have the intention to settle in Qingzhou. Naturally, he hopes that Qingzhou will become more and more prosperous.
