Chapter 280 Song Jing looks at Jiangzhou

The topic of Song Lan disguising herself as a man ended Song Yang's embarrassment about his cheap daddy.

After chatting for a while, Song Yang arranged a sumptuous reception banquet.

He also introduced important officials in Jiangzhou to Song Jing.

In the afternoon, Song Yang personally accompanied Song Jing on a field trip to Jiangzhou.

The enthusiastic people made Song Jing once again see how popular Song Yang was in the hearts of the people in Jiangzhou.

Looking at the city layout in Xincheng, no matter whose house you pass by, as long as someone at home sees Song Yang, they will be invited to come in for a drink of water.

Song Yang and Song Jing and his daughter were also very casual. When they were tired from walking, they would go to people's homes to sit.

After drinking, drink some cold drinks served by fellow villagers at home.

Many people also cut leeks and pulled green onions and brought them to Song Yang.

But Song Yang didn't ask for it and let them keep it for himself.

Stepping on the cement road, Song Jing felt a lot of emotions.

Coming from Lingnan, 90% of the road ahead is bumpy.

Sometimes when the road is broken, the people on the road are about to disperse. There are also some sections of the road where the carriage cannot pass at all, so you have to get off the car and walk.

The carriage was carried through the potholes by guards...

But when he arrived in De'an, Song Jing discovered cement pavement.

The smooth and clean road surface allows the carriage to run very fast.

After leaving De'an County, the road surface changed to gravel road, but not long after walking, it turned out to be cement road again.

And I heard from the workers under construction that this kind of road was built directly from Jiangzhou Fucheng!

When he arrived in Jiangzhou, the entire city was paved with cement roads, making Song Jing once again marvel at the beauty of such things.

Song Yang had just told him what cement was.

Song Jing also secretly took note of Song Yang's words and wanted to go back and do something about it.

Song Yang saw what he was thinking and said enthusiastically: "It's okay. I'll copy a cement formula for Uncle San tomorrow!"

Sooner or later, cement will become popular.

Just pointing to Jiangzhou, the speed is too slow.

Give the formula to Song Jing and ask him to set up a cement factory in Lingnan, which will help promote cement faster.

Improve the quality of life of people.

Song Jing was also a seasoned man, and once he had the formula, he promised that half of all cement profits would be given to Jiangzhou.

The two chatted and concluded a deal.



Heading north out of the city, you will arrive at the old wharf.

Workers on the dock are carrying swords, guns, swords and halberds.

This is a military dock, and weapons and other things need to be boarded from here.

Of course, these weapons are not for personal use, but sold to alliance members.

There were other warships parked in the dock, arranged side by side, which was very spectacular.

This type of warship was also available in Nanhai County, but Song Jing did not come by boat.

Even though Song Jing is the King of the South Sea, he is a serious landlubber. He fainted as soon as he got on the boat.

"What is this thing?" Song Jing said, pointing to the squatting tiger cannon on the fort next to the pier.

"The Crouching Tiger Cannon is a newly developed weapon. Let's go to the shooting range to see its power when we have time." Song Yang patted the Crouching Tiger Cannon and said.

"Tiger Crouching Cannon? I've heard about it. People on the road have heard that this thing can destroy the city wall with one shot!" Song Jing looked at the Tiger Crouching Cannon in surprise.

From the rumors he heard on the road, Song Jing guessed that the Crouching Tiger Cannon might be something big like a catapult.

Who would have thought that it would just be lost like this.

It's not as big as the stone lion at the door of my house.

"Haha... the common people are also spreading rumors. How can it be so powerful? We haven't started researching the artillery that can destroy the city wall with one shot!" Song Yang shook his head and laughed.

Shou accurately grasped the problem, looked at Song Yang and asked: "Is there really a weapon that can destroy the city wall?"

"Yes!" Song Yang said one word with certainty.

Song Jing was silent for a long time before saying: "It seems that my third uncle is short-sighted..."

"Haha. Third uncle, that thing is still far away. The Tiger Crouching Cannon is very interesting now. Let's go to the shooting range to try it out early tomorrow morning."

"Okay, okay!"

After leaving the dock, we went to the livestock farm.

Lao Bao and Jin Jianbin were pushing a cart of feed towards the livestock factory.

The hydraulic mower is on the other side of the creek, and the workers at the livestock factory have to push several carts of feed back every day.

Although Jin Jianbin is the chief minister and Lao Bao is the foreman, they do no less work than others.

Seeing Song Yang and his party coming, the two put down the cart and greeted Song Yang.

As soon as he stood up, he smiled and said:

"Your Majesty, Huahua gave birth to six more cubs today! They are all so happy!"

"Yeah, yeah. Take good care of it and prepare more delicious food for it."

Huahua is a flowery sow in the pig pen.

Thieves can be born...

He is a hero in the pig breeding industry in Jiangzhou.

The only pig with a name...

Song Yang was not prepared to take Song Jing to visit the livestock factory.

After all, it doesn't taste very good.

However, Song Lan was very interested in asking to see Piggy.

Song Yang asked Jin Jianbin and Lao Bao to lead everyone around.

Arriving at the pig pen, Song Lan saw the boars inside dozing off harmoniously, without any sign of fighting.

"Your pig-raising technology in Jiangzhou is also very high, but they don't even fight!"

It has to be said that although Song Lan is a woman, she has been doing men's work for more than a year.

Moreover, she came from a humble background and didn't care much about the lives of ordinary people.

"This is all thanks to our Master Jin." Song Yang pointed at Jin Jianbin and said.

"Don't dare, don't dare, it's because of the leadership of the prince." Jin Jianbin waved his hand.

"What's the trick?" Song Lan asked curiously.

"You castrated them?"

Before Song Yang and Jin Jianbin spoke, Song Jing had already seen the crux of the problem.

"Uh..." Song Lan suddenly blushed.

"Third uncle has good eyesight. He has indeed been castrated."

Song Yang told Song Jing the ins and outs of castration.

As for the effect, just look at those lazy fat pigs.

Song Jing sighed again, this Jiangzhou is really miraculous, it can actually find a way to increase the production of castrated pigs.

After leaving the animal husbandry factory, Song Yang took Song Jing and his party to see the factory area.

Song Jing was shocked when he entered the workshop where the Crouching Tiger Cannon was produced.

The workers are working in full swing, and brand-new tiger-crouching artillery pieces are piled there waiting to be installed.

What shocked him the most was that there was a tall monster in the factory.

The top of the monster was steaming, and the bottom seemed to be on fire.

An arm-like thing carries a big hammer, which can flatten iron bars with just one lift.

"This...what is this!"

Song Jing pointed at the monster in a panic and asked.

"Uncle Wang, don't panic. This is a steam hammer, used for blacksmithing and smelting."

"Such a big hammer? How many people do you need to pull it?" Song Jing thought that this thing was pulled by manpower.

"It doesn't require manpower. It uses steam." He pointed to the steam hammer.

We took Song Jing and his daughter behind the steam hammer. The fire hall was right here, and charcoal was burning inside.

Two workers were looking at the fire hall, and two more were looking at the gas valve on the scaffolding above.

There is currently no pressure gauge, so we have to manually keep an eye on the steam valve.

Otherwise, the steam pressure may be too high and an explosion may occur.

"Please pay attention to safety, especially you two, be careful not to fall!" Song Yang said to the four workers.

"I understand, Your Majesty, we recite the motto of production safety every day!"

"Yes, yes. Safety first, prevention first, comprehensive management! Everyone remembers it."

The workers said one after another.

Since the Daye Safety Production Guidelines began to be used, Song Yang has introduced this management method to all walks of life in Jiangzhou.

Especially in industrial production.

I often talk to workers. Although it is a cliché, it can also play a role in preventing carelessness in industrial production.

"Safety first, prevention first, comprehensive management..."

Song Jing muttered again and looked at Song Yang with more admiration in his eyes.

"Ah Yang! You really have some skills in this safety...production policy! You are better than your father, Song Laoer!"

Song Jing originally praised Song Yang, but then he mentioned Song Yang's cheap dad.

It seems that the contradiction between them is indeed very deep!

Song Yang could only smile awkwardly and began to introduce the steam engine to Song Jing.

Song Jing looked in disbelief when he heard that water vapor could drive such heavy objects.

But the facts were before his eyes, and he couldn't believe it.

Song Lan was curiously circling the steam hammer.

"A Yang, the steam hammer you made is so powerful! The hammer must weigh several hundred kilograms." Song Lan asked with wide eyes.

"Ayan has many inventions, including a steamboat! It can move without paddles!" Song Ning on the side helped.

They are all members of the old Song family. Song Lan is a girl, so of course Song Ning must accompany her.

And their experiences are somewhat similar. Last year, Song Ning also disguised herself as a man for more than half a year.

The two of them still have a lot in common.

"When are we going to see the steamship?" Song Lan asked eagerly.

Her father is a landlubber, but she is just the opposite.

Not only is he a very skilled swimmer, he can also sail a boat.

"It's tomorrow. The ship has been sent for maintenance."

The steamer has been undergoing repairs in the dock in the west since it returned from Suzhou.

A trip to Suzhou would be quite tiring for the ship.

I almost lost my temper on the way back.

Today's steam engines still have a lot to improve.

Every long journey is a major test for the steam engine.

After more than a month of maintenance, the ship has basically been completed.

Yesterday, Ma Cheng also said that it would be available in the next two days.

After seeing the steam hammer, Song Jing saw the steam boring machine.

The inner wall of the gun barrel boring machine is smooth, which saves time and effort than manual work.

"This thing is a musket, right?" Song Jing said, holding a newly processed musket.

Apparently he heard about it on the way.

"Yes. This is a musket. This is the latest model. It is much more powerful than before."

"I have seen a musket before, but this is the first time I have seen a musket. This thing of yours is much more exquisite than a musket!" Song Jing weighed the musket and said.

After saying that, he served it in a decent manner.

However, the musket and the musket are not the same thing, and Song Jing did not understand how to use this thing.

"Let's go to the shooting range together tomorrow." Song Yang said with a smile.

It's almost dusk now, so we can only test the gun tomorrow.

After leaving the factory, Song Jing was filled with emotion.

No matter what, I would never have imagined that my eldest nephew could reach such a level of spirituality.

He had communicated with the workers and knew that all the machines in the factory were designed by Song Yang.

"I don't know how this kid's head looks like! Isn't he Song Laoer's biological child?"

Song Jing cursed in his heart.

I think the emperor's second son is totally incapable of giving birth to such a wonderful son.
