When Long Lin said this, it was simply great news for everyone.
From now on, they have no worries about food and clothing. Isn't this the life they have always wanted.
"Your Highness, please rest assured that we will all follow His Highness's arrangements."
...
A group of people immediately made a pledge, with firm looks in their eyes.
Long Lin turned around and looked at Situ Heng.
"Master Situ, please let someone take them down and arrange them properly."
Situ Heng nodded and waved his hand.
A guard ran over in a hurry, Situ Heng whispered a few words, and the guard led everyone away.
After everyone left, Situ Heng looked at Long Lin with confusion in his eyes.
"Your Highness, what do you mean?"
"Let's go, Master Situ, let's talk in the room."
Situ Heng nodded and entered the hut with Long Lin.
The two of them arrived at the house together and sat on the seats.
During this period of time, Situ Heng was led by Long Lin and was very busy.
He kept running back and forth, and as soon as he returned to the capital, he was given another errand to bring all the people who made fireworks into the palace.
Time was running out, so he didn't dare to stop for a moment and got to work immediately.
But Long Lin's words left him completely confused.
"Your Highness, arrange them in the Ministry of Works? Is this necessary?"
Long Lin nodded, very firmly.
The core of making fireworks is gunpowder, and if gunpowder is used in the right place, it can completely change everything.
Explosives and artillery weapons are inseparable from gunpowder.
Therefore, these people are very important, far more than Situ Heng imagined.
"Master Situ, it is very necessary. You don't need to think too much."
"Those schools near the south of the city are used to house these people."
"We must give them a salary that cannot be lower than that of the craftsmen in the Ministry of Works."
"All their requests must be met, and guards must be arranged around the school to protect them."
"The Ministry of Industry must fully cooperate with them to provide them with what they need, and treat them like masters."
"Anyone who insults them because they are ordinary will be sent to the army directly."
Long Lin said a lot at once, leaving Situ Heng dumbfounded.
Situ Heng couldn't believe that His Highness Long Lin valued these people far more than he imagined.
Especially the last sentence, directly dispatched to the army, this is no small matter.
Situ Heng understood the seriousness of the matter and immediately became respectful.
"Your Highness, I understand. I will arrange this matter properly."
"I will treat them like master craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry."
After hearing this, Long Lin shook his head.
"No, Master Situ, I don't think so, but they are."
Situ Heng's face was full of depression, and he still couldn't change it.
Seeing Situ Heng's doubts, Long Lin smiled.
"Master Situ, have you ever learned about fireworks?"
Situ Heng nodded. He had not done so before, but he made a special effort to understand it yesterday.
"Your Highness, I know something about it. I heard that gunpowder and the like are used."
Long Lin nodded, this is the point.
"Gunpowder should not appear among the people, and will be strictly controlled by the Ministry of Industry in the future."
"The production of fireworks must also be included in the imperial court with the support of the Ministry of Industry."
"The school where they are staying will be called the Arms Research Institute from now on."
"This place is an important place and no private people are allowed to approach it."
"Except within the capital, any discovery anywhere else in the world must be collected in the institute in a timely manner."
"Show a notice to the world that gunpowder is a property of the imperial court, and civilians are not allowed to handle it privately. Those with this skill can join the Ministry of Industry and use it for the imperial court."
After Long Lin finished speaking, he looked at Situ Heng with very firm eyes.
When Situ Heng heard this, he immediately nodded and remembered it in his heart.
"Don't worry, Your Highness, I understand and I will definitely take care of this matter."
"Well, you settle them first. After they are settled, I will go again."
"Yes, it must be done."
Long Lin nodded, he was still very relieved about Situ Heng.
With this matter settled, Long Lin felt much more relieved.
Next, there are many important things.
Farming, water conservancy, roads, bridges, smelting, these are the things that Long Lin is thinking about at the moment.
But each of these things is very important and closely related to people's livelihood.
If the farming is done well, the people will not go hungry; if the water conservancy is done well, a large number of floods can be prevented and treated.
It is also very important to build good roads. If you want to get rich, build roads first. He understands.
If the bridges are done well, it will be very convenient for the people; if the smelting is done well, the whole world can be completely changed.
Next, Long Lin told Situ Heng his thoughts in detail.
Some of them are very subtle and not particularly straightforward.
The core meaning is that all these should be set up research institutes, and the best people among them should be able to live in the institutes.
But these are different from the Arms Research Institute. The other half here still want to establish a school.
Let many students have the opportunity to be exposed to these things in advance.
We need to let more students understand that studying is not the only way to become an official, but there are many more things that can be done.
Although Situ Heng didn't understand it, he remembered it all in his heart.
He has many capable people, and it is not difficult to select them.
Suddenly there were five more research institutes. Situ Heng didn't quite understand what the purpose of this was? What was it going to do?
How can we study water conservancy if we leave the place where there is water?
For Situ Heng, this matter was completely incomprehensible.
But Long Lin's attitude was firm, and he would not go against Long Lin, and simply agreed to everything.
The institute does not restrict the freedom of these people. They can still move freely and do what they want to do.
Even being protected by guards is a good thing.
After thinking about it, Situ Heng suddenly mentioned something.
"Your Highness, since there are so many research institutes, what about repairs? Do you want to build another research institute?"
"Building a house? You can, including this."
Situ Heng smiled and nodded immediately. The outstanding people in his Ministry of Industry were all better now. They all went to the research institute at once, making management more convenient.
Seeing Situ Heng smiling, Long Lin was also smiling.
Let them settle in first, let them get familiar with it, and then let them understand what these institutes are for and what they will do after they go to the institute.
The salary of the institute will be gradually increased. It will be in vain for those who are incompetent to enter at the beginning, and they will all be eliminated in the future.
And as long as they make contributions, he will give them all major rewards.
With the heavy reward, everyone will be stimulated, and with more and more research results, why worry about the Dragon Dynasty not being able to rise.
And in his mind, he still has clear directions for various industries. He just needs to go there a few more times and give some guidance each time.
I believe that outstanding people among them will definitely be able to understand something.
