The hot water was very comfortable. After enjoying the relaxation brought by taking a bath for a while, Yang Fan was eager to exercise in the water.
Soon, the sound of water splashing came from inside.
The room outside the big tent is the temporary secretariat office.
Yang Fan splashed in the water for an hour before he came out happily.
Dry yourself with a bath towel, put on new clothes, stretch your limbs, sighed comfortably, walked around the screen and walked out.
He still has a pile of official documents to be reviewed and cannot go to bed so early. Now he is used to reviewing documents until very late every day.
This has almost become a required course for him every day.
Yang Fan no longer plans to continue to develop in Zunhua City. The poor place is too small and the development space is limited.
Moreover, the Qing army launched a massive attack next year, and Zunhua soon fell. No matter how well it was done, it would be destroyed, so it was better to give up now.
It didn't matter what he said there. Whether it was fighting or defending, he would have to fight with those who were unfriendly to him. Yang Fan didn't have the time to spare.
The most capable person here is him. He has built his own territory. As for the Qing army coming, everyone is responsible for their own affairs.
You guys are doing your own thing, and Yang Fan doesn't want to get involved.
The emperor's arrangements made him very embarrassed. He had no final say in Zunhua. There were commanders, colleagues and other commanders and ministers above, and none of the five thousand households below were under his control.
They were very worried that Yang Fan would take away their power,&bsp&bspThey all isolated Yang Fan and did not have much contact with Yang Fan.
Simply,&bsp&bspI won’t go there, and you can do whatever you like. You can just build your own West Road with peace of mind.
This is a wasteland,&bsp&bspBut as long as the reservoir is built, this will be a very good place.
The new city he is currently building is surrounded by mountains and rivers, making it very suitable for industrial development.
This area in northern Hebei has always been one of the four major iron ore areas in the country.
There is a joke in later generations that in order of world steel production, China is first, Hebei is second, &bsp&bspTangshan is third,&bsp&bspSinister Country is fourth,&bsp&bspTangshan’s underreported output is fifth.
Among the four areas with the highest concentration of iron ore in China, the first are Anshan and Benxi, which are now occupied by slaves.
The second is Zunhua, Qianxi, Luanxian and other northern Hebei areas. Currently Yang Fan is preparing to take it as his own.
The third is Panzhihua and other areas in the western part of southern Sichuan. The fourth is the Baima mining area in Sichuan. This is too far away and has difficult transportation, so there is no need to consider it. If you want to develop it on a large scale, you will have to meet the conditions of future generations.
There are proven reserves of 100 million tons of iron ore around Zunhua. In addition, there are large open-pit coal mines in Luanxian County, and there are water transportation on rivers such as Jiyuan Canal. This is a unique condition for the development of industry. The only drawback is that it is too close to the Great Wall.
, the slaves would often come to visit me in the future.
The successful resumption of production of the modern obsolete small open-hearth furnace previously installed at Zunhua Xinghe Iron Works gave Yang Fan confidence in the workers of this era,&bsp&bspCoupled with the first batch of technicians with primary school education who were trained by surprise
,&bsp&bspJoined the iron factory, which made Yang Fan decide to build a new steel factory in the new city.
The new plant will build a large number of modern-style blast furnaces for iron-making, and use modern obsolete open-hearth furnaces for steel-making.
As for the iron ore, the locations that were explored in later generations were redeveloped and a large number of explosives were used to open the mines. In this way, the output of iron ore increased.
As for the mineral processing, it is done at the location of the mine, and it is selected as soon as it is mined.
Transportation is solved by laying horse-drawn rail cars.
The scammer has already introduced Shire horses in advance and is currently breeding them on a large scale.
After all, output also develops little by little. Animal power does not require too much at once, it can be developed little by little.
Yang Fan asked Xiaoyu to lay out the map, and took a pencil to mark several large-scale open-pit iron mines and coal mines in later generations, as well as the distance to the new city. He roughly calculated that two hundred kilometers of rails were enough.
In later generations, this place was where the Datong-Qinhuangdao Railway passed through. It passed through the Luanzhou Coal Mining Area from Qinhuangdao Buluang Port Terminal, and passed through the Qianxi Iron Mining Area in Yanqing, north of the capital, directly to the Datong coal mine-intensive area. The coal from Shanxi and the steel from Tangshan were
Shipping to various places along the coast via Qinhuangdao Port.
The raw materials and output of Yang Fan's industrial base will also follow this route in the future, and shipments will mainly be shipped by sea, supplemented by inland shipping, so that it can basically cover the major urban areas of the Ming Dynasty.
Large cities in this era are basically located near rivers and seas. Water sources are a prerequisite for urban expansion. Without enough fresh water, urban development cannot be supported.
Even seaport cities generally rely on the estuaries of freshwater rivers.
Yang Fan has already built ships in Beitangkou to build a navy that is not too large in scale but has enough combat power to crush the sailing warships of this era. It will be used to escort commercial fleets and fight against pirates.
As long as we can control the Bohai Sea, the Yellow Sea, and the northern part of the East China Sea, we can ensure the safety of inner-core shipping in North Korea, Japan, and the Yangtze River.
The markets in these places are sufficient to support Yang Fan's sales of industrial products.
As for the sea surfaces in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fujian, and Guangdong, Yang Fan will continue to explore them in the future.
Gu Zhen<spa>
After all, his power is still very weak now. The Zheng Zhilong Group in Fujian has thousands of large and small ships. Pirates, no, he has now recruited people. They should be called Fujian Navy, with more than 100,000 people, and a yearly income of more than 30 million taels.
silver.
As for Li Dan and other great pirates, they even dominated the South China Sea.
Those giants on the sea are not something Yang Fan can provoke now.
At this stage, Yang Fan is using clipper ships to transport goods at high speeds, as long as the pirates can't catch up.
Yang Fan touched his chin and thought.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! First collect scrap rails and sleepers from modern times,&bsp&bspBuild a horse-drawn track connecting various iron mines and coal mines, as well as the Xincheng Steel Plant. Depending on the situation, you can also move the railway westward.
The Qinhuangdao Pier extends to the capital and extends eastward.
Once this primitive railway is completed, the energy and raw materials for Yang Fan's industrial base will be stable.
Yang Fan immediately contacted Er Lengzi via WeChat.
"Stupid, are you asleep?"
"Not yet, what's the matter, Fanzi."
"It's fine. I'm just afraid that you're playing poker late at night and I won't bother you again."
"Go away, I have something to talk about. I'm in a hotel in Taiyuan. I'm here to see a closed factory and collect some old machines."
"Are there any mines that have been shut down now? I want to purchase some more rails, sleepers, and mine cars. I can also purchase some used passenger cars."
"Well, the economy has not been very good in the past two years, especially many small mines with low output and substandard environmental protection have been closed down. These closed mines are everywhere. These things are very easy to find and the price is low. It just needs to be replaced regularly.
There are also channels for the train tracks coming down.”
“Are these rails still usable?”
"It depends on what it is used for. If it continues to be used as rails for heavy-haul trains, it will be unsafe. If it is used as a small railway with a small transportation capacity, it will be fine for another hundred years."
"Okay, I'll send you money. First, order two hundred kilometers of rails and sleepers. I'm also buying a batch of old truck carriages. As long as the ground is in good condition, it doesn't matter. I'll also buy as many mine cars as possible."
"Don't worry, these are all connected in the early stage. There is a customer near Tangshan. She can get the dismantled old rails and sleepers, and she can also get the decommissioned train carriages. Just wait for my news. If it's quick, it can be done in a week.
Ship it to the warehouse."
The land that Yang Fan purchased outside the imperial capital had a freight railway line nearby, passing behind the transmission warehouse. Yang Fan asked Monkey to apply for the relevant procedures, and a railway track was connected from the freight line that had not been used for decades to the transmission warehouse.
Inside the warehouse.
At that time, the convenience of transporting grain was considered. After all, it is more convenient to transport bulk grain by railway.
Now it happens that decommissioned freight cars are transported in through this railway. These mine cars, sleepers, rails and so on are also very heavy goods, so it is best to transport them by railway for convenience.
In the past two days, Yaoguang has gone back to the academy to teach. The academy's half-year crash course will graduate soon, and Yaoguang, as the person in charge of education, has to personally host it.
Yang Fan opened Yaoguang's WeChat. Now the focus is on the new city, and the teleportation point needs to be rearranged in the new city. Yaoguang's help is needed for this.
"Have you slept?"
"No, I'm still signing the diploma. I'm exhausted." In the video, Yao Guang was wearing bear pajamas, stretched out cutely, and complained.
This time, more than 300 students graduated. They learned knowledge that was equivalent to most of elementary school and a small amount to junior high school.
Because of Yang Fan's desire for talents, these fifteen or sixteen-year-old boys must immediately put themselves into the assigned work.
In fact, Yang Fan also knew that their study was far from enough.
However, Yang Fan's time is tight and there is a shortage of people everywhere. He can only work first and continue his studies when there is an opportunity in the future.
There are more than 100 female teachers purchased from the Jiaofang Division, and they have been assigned to the women's school. The teaching staff of the women's school has basically been solved.
Yang Fan decided that the first batch of graduates from the women's school would basically become teachers, and they would first support the primary schools and kindergartens in Yang Fan's system. Except for a few, they would join the secretariat and be responsible for the management, sending and receiving of files and documents.
In addition, the next step is to establish an intelligence department, let Lin Yueru be the director, and provide her with enough personnel. She will also be assigned some back-office personnel at the women's school.
As Yang Fan's career grows, preparations are also underway for the Finance Department, the Judicial Department, and the Civil Affairs Department. These central office staff must be trained by new education. The current staff is still stretched thin and very tight.
Yang Fan rubbed his head. He suddenly understood deeply the importance of the cabinet. There was no way he could handle so many things by himself.
It seems that I have to establish a complete transaction processing system to handle various matters efficiently and orderly. I only need to make overall decisions.
Yang Fan decided to introduce the regular meeting system of later generations. There will be an office meeting every five days. Anything that needs to be decided by Yang Fan will be dealt with at the meeting.
After the meeting, Xiao Niangpi went to track the implementation and was responsible for supervision.
It was time to establish a shogunate.
