After breakfast, Song Yang coaxed his daughter at home for a while.
The two sisters, Song Yuhan and Song Yurou, didn't give much face to their unfamiliar father.
Song Yang dared to cry if he dared to touch them.
Moreover, the voices of the two of them were louder than the other, which frightened Song Yang so much that he could only run away in defeat.
After being frustrated by his daughter, Song Yang still wanted to play with Hao Daer Steamed Bun.
As a result, Mantou looked at Song Yang with a look of disgust.
Because Song Yang didn't save him from Tong Qian in the morning, Steamed Bun got a beating, so he didn't like this old man.
Song Yang, whose son refused to kiss and whose daughter did not love him, had no choice but to come to the office early.
What we listened to yesterday was a report on government affairs. Fang Zhe taught Pei Lin about government affairs.
Pei Lin returned to Jiangzhou after many twists and turns.
In the past six months, with Pei Lin in charge of government affairs, everything has been relatively stable.
No major events occurred in the various state capitals in the south of the Yangtze River, and everything was developing steadily and making progress.
The only thing worth mentioning is that the King of Jizhou who was injured in the natural disaster and was bedridden died in May.
Crown Prince Song Kai officially inherited the throne.
This kind of thing should have been appointed and dismissed by the emperor, but now that there is no emperor, it can only be done by Song Yang, the actual leader of Daqian.
Song Yang was fighting in the northwest at that time, so Song Kai could only temporarily take the throne.
After hearing about this, Song Yang immediately asked Pei Lin to write a eulogy for Song Kai on his behalf, and then personally wrote a letter of appointment to Song Kai, allowing him to officially take over the position of King of Jizhou.
Song Kai is a man with a flexible mind, quick work, and relatively capable and responsible person. He has been in charge of Jizhou all these years.
This time it was just a formality.
"Please note this down first. If I have some free time later, I will personally go to Jizhou to pay my respects. After all, we are clan members."
Song Yang actually wanted to take this opportunity to visit various places in Jiangnan.
Over the years, I have been busy expanding my territory, but I have never been to the areas under my control.
When he was in Shanzhou before, Song Yang wanted to have time to visit various places in the south of the Yangtze River.
You have to see for yourself to know how people's livelihood is recovering.
…
Yesterday I heard about political affairs, and today I want to hear about the work progress of agriculture, industry, commercial construction and other industries.
When Song Yang came to the office, Qi Yuan and Wang Jinshi were already waiting at the door.
"You two came so early. Have you eaten?" Song Yang asked as he opened the door.
"Prince Lao is concerned, we have already eaten. Yesterday you said you wanted to hear our work report today, so we came here early." Qi Yuan replied hurriedly.
Wang Jinshi also echoed.
"Okay. Let's talk about business directly." Song Yang opened the door and led them into the house.
Qi Yuan is the deputy director of the scientific research institute. On behalf of the scientific research institute, he first talked about this year's development.
The first to make the greatest progress was enameled wire and internal combustion engine technology.
The reason why enameled wire is mentioned separately is because it is related to the next development of generators.
Through the unremitting efforts of Chu Zian's team, the enameled wire has been basically successful.
Currently doing winding tests.
After Chu Zian picked up Song Yang with everyone yesterday, he went to do scientific research in the evening and worked for most of the night. He had just fallen asleep at this time.
Therefore, the reporting matter can only be left to Qi Yuan.
There is no need to worry about anyone competing for credit in front of Song Yang, everyone talks matter-of-factly.
Chu Zian devoted himself to scientific research, and Song Yang was also very pleased.
"Increase investment and strive to build a generator next year." Song Yang gave the work requirements.
Originally, we planned to build a generator within three to five years, but now we need to speed up the process.
Because the glass factory has already manufactured glass bulbs and used tungsten filament to make the wick, now you only need to turn on the electricity to know whether the tungsten filament lamp can be used.
For the sake of the light at night, Song Yang couldn't wait for the generator.
The second major development was the internal combustion engine.
After one year of development, the single-cylinder engine has been replaced twice.
Full of horsepower and powerful power.
By attaching a harvester and a rotary tiller, the plowing speed increases by more than ten times!
Especially with the application of rotary tillers and mechanical plows, the farming efficiency of the experimental fields has made a qualitative leap.
The internal combustion engine production plant has already begun expansion and will be put into use next year.
Starting next year, agricultural four-wheelers will also be officially put into production.
As for civilian use, Song Yang didn't let them consider it.
If you drive a single-cylinder Bengzi and go out, your head will be buzzing if you have to go a long way!
As for multi-cylinder cars, Song Yang has no requirements for the time being. Single-cylinder engines are available, so let them take their own course.
What needs to be solved now is the problem of farmland.
As long as the machinery is put into production in large quantities, Daqian's grain output can be greatly increased.
There is almost no need to worry about the troubles of famine.
The issue of eating is a big deal, and pleasure can be put aside.
"You must make unified plans for production lines and assembly lines. The demand for single-cylinder machines must be huge. Production efficiency must be improved as soon as possible to meet the requirements of agricultural production to a limited extent." Song Yang gave instructions for this.
Qi Yuan said that he would work hard to complete the production target according to Song Yang's wishes.
Afterwards, Wang Jinshi reported on the on-site production situation on behalf of each factory.
The production efficiency of various machinery, firearms, cans, clothing and other manufacturers in Jiangzhou has been improved with the support of machinery upgrading.
This year is another good harvest year. The harvest of raw materials in various parts of Jiangnan has also ensured the supply of raw materials for Jiangzhou's industry.
Song Yang was in a happy mood after hearing about a series of progress and developments.
The faster the industry develops, the faster the people's living standards will improve.
In the absence of a large-scale war at this stage, the focus of industrial production has been adjusted to a split of military and civilian needs.
Therefore, in the year after Song Yang left, the material life of the people in Jiangzhou was also greatly enriched.
People from all over Jiangnan also took advantage of Jiangzhou's development to a certain extent.
Almost the entire people in Jiangnan have returned to their living standards before the natural disaster.
With the stability and development of Jiangnan, support for Jiangbei is also increasing.
Kaifeng, Luoyang, Chang'an and other important cities have restored basic living security.
In various prefectures, counties, and rural areas, people are gradually settling down due to this year's bumper harvest.
In order to make full use of the raw materials in the Jiangbei area, Wang Jinshi suggested that some semi-finished products processing plants that are not important and non-confidential should be placed in the Jiangbei area.
In this way, raw materials can be processed nearby and can also promote the development of Jiangbei area.
Song Yang immediately agreed with Wang Jinshi's idea and said that the matter would be discussed in a meeting as soon as possible.
Fang Zhe and others went to the fields to guide the autumn harvest work, so today Song Yang met with representatives from all parties alone to listen to work reports.
Some major issues still need to be discussed collectively in meetings.
After Qi Yuan and Wang Jinshi finished reporting, Zhang Mi had been waiting for a while at the door.
When Zhang Mi came in, he was talking about the replacement of agricultural machinery.
This year, many fields have been equipped with internal combustion engine harvesters. Zhang Mi invited Song Yang to visit the fields.
Song Yang happily followed old man Zhang Mi to the fields.
Sure enough, the steam harvester moved slowly in the field, and large areas of rice fields were scooped up by the harvester.
The efficiency is ten times and a hundred times that of manual work.
"It's very good. The efficiency is indeed much higher than that of the steam model. The machine is also flexible enough and has good passability." After watching for a while, Song Yang praised.
Zhang Mi hurriedly said: "The crawler design proposed by the prince is the decisive factor. The rice fields are suddenly very sticky, making it difficult for machines with wooden and iron wheels to move. The crawler can solve this problem and is suitable for almost all complex tasks."
terrain."
"The prince has been able to come up with this track before the machinery is fully put into use, which shows his foresight."
Old man Zhang Mi attributed the credit to Song Yang, but Song Yang just smiled.
This old man is such a good person, but Song Yang has never forgotten who should get the credit.
Back in the office, Liu Bao, Wang Hun, He Siyuan, Qin Xu, Mao Zhi and others also came to report on the achievements in their respective fields.
It can be said that in the past year without Song Yang, Jiangzhou's productivity has greatly improved.
Development in all walks of life is proceeding steadily.
The production volume of industrial products has increased, production efficiency has improved, and Jiangzhou has gradually entered a state of abundant commodities.
Here I should mention He Siyuan, who was originally responsible for the mason's work.
In the construction of residential buildings, He Siyuan can be regarded as a participant and manager from beginning to end.
His familiarity and experience with residential buildings rank among the top in Jiangzhou City.
After the completion of the residential building, He Siyuan took charge of people's livelihood projects in various parts of Jiangzhou.
After several years of building engineering institutes, public toilets, hospitals, and markets, He Siyuan's engineering team has become quite large and experienced.
Before following Song Yang to the northwest, Fang Zhe issued a sign to He Siyuan's engineering team. From then on, He Siyuan's engineering team became the only engineering team in Jiangzhou with any official autonomy.
After he came to report on the construction work today, he also requested Song Yang to demolish the earliest square meters in Jiangzhou and build some residential buildings.
Because with the development of the city, more and more people come to Jiangzhou to make a living.
The scale of Jiangzhou City is getting larger and larger, and the peripheral development has been occupied by some factories.
Further away, transportation is inconvenient.
That's why He Siyuan set his sights on the renovation of the old city.
Song Yang laughed after hearing what he said: "You're a smart guy, you actually thought of demolition."
"The old city is seven or eight years old. They are all mud houses. Many of them have been seriously damaged after such a long time."
"Renovation and demolition, I also think it is necessary."
"Okay. I have taken note of this matter and will discuss it later at the meeting."
Song Yang wrote down He Siyuan's proposal in a small notebook, which contained the contents that would be discussed at a meeting with the Jiangzhou management group in the next few days.
"Your Majesty, I have written down the plan in this regard here. Please read it." Seeing that Song Yang agreed, He Siyuan took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Song Yang.
Song Yang was stunned, pointed at He Siyuan, smiled and scolded: "You are such a devil. You have already prepared the materials and if you don't take them out quickly, you have to keep them!"
"My lord, forgive me. I was afraid that you would disagree, so I hid it for a while." He Siyuan bowed hurriedly.
"Okay, let's do it this time. If you have anything to say in the future, just say it directly!" Song Yang pressed his hands and said.
"Yes! Your Majesty is lenient!"
…
After He Siyuan left, it was the turn of uncle and nephew Lin Hui and Lin Sheng from the shipyard.
They brought great news to Song Yang.
The No. 1 ironclad ship will be launched in the spring next year!
