"No, you'll know when you get to the river, that scene...... It's like the fifties, it's a hot one, hehe. ”

Li Hanzhi led Lin Xiao's mount and whispered excitedly.

The old brothers all went out to fight, and he was left alone at the base, and no one had been able to talk about the mountains without any taboos for more than a month, and when he saw Lin Xiao and them coming back, this kid was like seeing a long-lost relative, and the conversation box opened, like a river that opened the floodgates.

Listening to Li Hanzhi's chatter all the way, Lin Xiao's mood was also very good, and when he passed through the center of the town, Lin Xiao beckoned He Shouxin to come forward:

"You go home and have a look, I saw that your father asked him to come to Baisha Island to find me, I have something to discuss with him."

"No need, commander-in-chief, I still have to settle the team into the barracks......"

"Don't be verbose, hand over the troops to the deputy company commander, go, ask the boss to go back together, but we must return to the team tonight, and the troops will start tomorrow morning."

"Yes! Yes, sir! ”

He Shouxin saluted, turned around and went to the deputy company commander and Situ Zheng.

……

When he was about to reach the Fangcheng River, Lin Xiao asked the troops to drive directly to the Baisha Island military camp, and he took Zhang Chenfeng, Duan Zhenghong and Li Hanzhi to accompany Qu Shiyun to the riverside.

At a glance, the first thing that caught Lin Xiao's eyes was several tall factories rising from the ground on the other side of the river, as well as a flat-roofed building......

"Buildings have been built? Is it reinforced concrete? ”

Lin Xiao asked with surprise and joy, it seems that Zhou Gong's smelter has not only officially produced the finished steel, but also can pull out the steel bar?

"It's a hybrid structure of concrete frame and floor slabs, and the main body is still a brick wall, which is a production scheduling room and a research and laboratory building for skilled workers...... Do you know why Zhou Gong wants to recruit a large number of workers? A larger steelmaking furnace was built, and No, the factory next to the big chimney...... The rolling mill became independent, the soap factory and the cement factory were separated, and the last one was a new glass factory. ”

Li Hanzhi pointed in the air and said quickly.

"The glass trial production was successful?"

"It should be done, I don't know very well, I heard that the oil lamp holder and lampshade were blown out, and Cao Gong was urged to open an additional hardware workshop to produce lamp heads, so Cao Gong also had to recruit a large number of workers...... By the way, the captain, Cao Gong's arsenal, that, has been officially put into production, and it can produce more than 100 ...... per day on average."

In the end, Li Hanzhi lowered his voice, gestured his fingers and said in a chattering voice, causing Duan Zhenghong, who was standing behind him to be inaudible, rolling his eyes.

Lin Xiao turned his head to look at Baisha Island, a few kilometers away in the sea, and found that there was also a large concrete factory there, and at the far end, the same tall warehouse had also risen from the ground.

"These guys are desperate...... With such a waste of cement, the daily output should not be small, right? ”

Lin Xiao muttered, but the corners of his eyes couldn't hide a thick smile.

"Isn't that right? Now I know why there are no people in the residential area, the soap factory and the glass factory have recruited a lot of female workers, and the construction team of Mr. He has also recruited a lot of small workers, and they have to work for them non-stop, working for more than ten hours a day......

"10,000 years is too long, seize the day......"

Lin Xiao squinted, held his head high, and spit out a ***** poem in his mouth......

After looking forward to it as if no one was around, Lin Xiao finally looked back at him.

Not far behind them, along the bank of the Fangcheng River, a magnificent new-style school hall has already been built, and the place where they stopped is the riverside outside the gate of the school hall.

Covering an area of more than 50 acres, the school campus is a granite avenue at the entrance, flanked by rows of transplanted pines and cypresses and camphor trees, and in the shadows of the trees there are three rows of tall blue brick houses with steps and corridors, each row has four classrooms, which can accommodate thousands of people at the same time.

Behind the three rows of classrooms, on one side is a small courtyard, which is the dormitory for the talents and their families who are hired to teach cultural classes.

Next to the small courtyard is a small canteen and several utility rooms; On the other side, there is a playground that is not too small.

This school, the construction cost alone, cost tens of thousands of taels of silver, originally designed as a night school, mainly for the recruitment of workers for vocational training, so also specially pulled the wires over, installed extremely valuable electric lights, convenient for night classes.

Later, because those Xiucai teachers were idle during the day, Li Hanzhi and He Yi discussed with them, and recruited all school-age boys and girls in Fangcheng Town to study for free, which also solved the worries of the busy workers in the factory and helped them work with peace of mind.

The teachers were very conscientious and divided the children into two groups, boys and girls, each with several beginner classes and one intermediate class, which were placed in the back classrooms.

Lin Xiao beckoned Qu Shiyun to walk towards the school hall together, he wanted to see the environment of the children's reading and learning with his own eyes, and at the same time, let Qu Shiyun feel the appearance of the new school hall, so that it could be promoted in various places in the future, after all, this matter was also promoted through Qu Shiyun's great help.

Centennial plan, education-oriented!

In order to make the Ming Dynasty rise again, Lin Xiao believes that comprehensively improving the literacy rate of the people, especially the improvement of scientific literacy, is the top priority, so running a school is an extremely important part of the overall plan in Lin Xiao's mind.

Only by completely changing the policy of ignoring the people and allowing the poorest children of peasants to receive free education can the cultural monopoly of the gentry and wealthy be broken.

Only by truly awakening the mud-legged people can the shackles of the dregs of the deep-rooted Confucian culture be shattered and the necessary political reform can be launched from the bottom up.

At that time, those gentry and wealthy businessmen will become an absolute minority, and even if they want to resist, it will be difficult to incite the people to blindly obey them and make trouble.

On the other hand, only when the whole people accept scientific consciousness can they keep up with the scientific enlightenment that is slowly opening in the West, and with the help of the black technology mastered by Lin Xiao, the Chinese nation can once again stand at the top of the world.

……

When Lin Xiao and his entourage came to the front of the school, there was a faint sound of schoolchildren reading in their ears, and an old man named Bao Fu hurriedly ran out of the gatehouse with his wife.

The elderly couple were refugees from Fujian, and their son and daughter-in-law had died in the war, so they fled with their only grandson.

At the end of last year, the grandson insisted on joining the army, and finally joined the army under the soft grinding and hard bubbles, and they became real empty nesters.

(Question: Li Dingguo and Zheng Chenggong, after the defeat of the Qing Dynasty, died of depression and illness in the same year, how old were they when they died?) ）
