Chapter 623: Rejuvenating the country through science and technology
Of course, Li Xinchen is very aware of the importance of agriculture, but he knows better how much benefit he will bring to himself by focusing on the development of industry at this time, even if this kind of industry cannot be compared with the industry of later generations.
Rejuvenating the country through science and technology is simple to say, but it is not so simple to do.
The workshop established by Li Xinchen this time was chosen to be on the edge of the mountains in the south of Shu County, and the entire workshop area was built along the mountain and extended to the mountains, so that it was convenient to use local materials and not take up too much agricultural land. But even so, the workshop that extends to the bottom of the mountain still occupies nearly 100 acres of land, after all, some large equipment is difficult to assemble on the mountain, and it is reasonable to place it at the bottom of the mountain.
Immediately, Li Xinchen looked at Tang Zhengliang who was hurrying up behind him, this former Bajun Taishou has now been transferred to Shu County Taishou, which can be regarded as a right move, after all, Shu County is the core of the entire Bashu, although Shu County Taishou and Bajun Taishou are both Taishou, but there is a gap in status. Of course, Tang Zhengliang did not have the luxury of hoping to reach the sky in one step, such a change was enough to satisfy him.
Of course, Tang Zhengliang's hard life of running around with Li Xinchen has never changed.
However, Tang Zhengliang did not complain about this, only in this way the boss who stepped on every inch of land was the ideal boss in his mind.
"Have all the local officials in Linqiong County (now Qionglai) said hello?" Li Xinchen asked in a low voice.
Tang Zhengliang hurriedly bowed his head: "I have already ordered it in the morning, what Mr. Ouyang said did appear before, and the local officials have also reported this problem to their subordinates, and their subordinates have asked them to take a firm stand and channel public opinion, and now the general has personally rushed over to inspect, presumably they can better understand the interests and disadvantages here, and they will naturally pay more attention in the future." ”
Tang Zhengliang said that Li Xinchen was very clear about the situation, because he knew that it was very difficult for this deep-rooted concept to change in a while, especially now that the workshop was created, and there was no way to even bring any benefits, and it was reasonable for the surrounding people and even officials to have doubts and dissatisfaction in their hearts.
Even Li Xinchen had no way to guarantee that Tang Zhengliang and other officials around him did not have such doubts. It will take a while to really change all this.
Li Xinchen bowed slightly, and immediately walked into the workshop quickly, Ouyang Mo and Tang Zhengliang didn't know what medicine was sold in Li Xinchen's gourd, so they could only follow quickly.
Ding Zhuang and the craftsman, who was working, all saw Li Xinchen who walked in quickly, many of them had never seen Li Xinchen, but when they saw the young man's dress, and then looked at the respectful attitude of Ouyang Mo, the master of his family, who was following behind, they naturally knew who was coming.
Zhenxi General Li Xinchen, this young man who single-handedly defeated Bashu and created a miracle, appeared in front of their eyes.
At this time, there was a sudden sound of gongs in the middle of the workshop, and the craftsmen and Ding Zhuang put down the guys in their hands, but this time they did not rush to gather over. This gong sound means to start eating, and it is now noon, but Li Xinchen, Ouyang Mo and others are also standing in the central open space of the workshop at this time.
Sheds were erected, steaming cauldrons of rice were served, and several fireheads were busy nervously, not noticing that someone was coming behind them.
"It's time to eat!" A fat cook shouted loudly, but the next moment he saw Li Xinchen and Ouyang Mo and others not far away, and he was speechless for a while.
And Li Xinchen walked up quickly, and said with a smile: "I rushed all the way from Shu County, and my stomach was already hungry, is it good to have a meal here?" ”
The fat cook's hand trembled, and he nodded hurriedly again and again, and Li Xinchen naturally picked up a plate and lined up, and at the same time turned around and said, "It's time to eat, don't you come to eat?" ”
Those craftsmen and Ding Zhuang who were still a little hesitant suddenly rushed up, and Li Ping's personal guards were anxious to protect Li Xinchen, but Li Xinchen stretched out his hand to let them retreat, and looked at a young craftsman who walked behind him and was slightly cramped: "The food here is okay, is it still used to living?" ”
The young craftsman's face was already flushed, he was Ouyang Mo's apprentice, when he first entered Shu, he had seen Li Xinchen from a distance on the building boat, it can be said that this young general who pacified Bashu with his own strength is the idol and role model of all young people of this generation, and at this time Li Xinchen stood in front of him, with a kind tone, making this young craftsman feel that he was really smoking from the ancestral tomb, and he was already stammering when he spoke:
"Eat well, live, live comfortably, the general rest assured!"
Li Xinchen laughed: "That's good, I still count on the future to rely on you to support a piece of the sky, if you suffer any grievances, you can't go in your heart!" ”
While speaking, Li Xinchen stepped forward, the steaming pork stew was poured into the bowl, and several fireheads looked at their generals excitedly, Li Xinchen smelled the fragrance and made a great gesture at them.
A craftsman and Ding Zhuang spread out after eating, and Tang Zhengliang and Ouyang Mo also served a bowl and sat next to Li Xinchen, Ouyang Mo had obviously been accustomed to this kind of life, eating with a sigh and snoring, and Tang Zhengliang still maintained the last bit of the family's children, but obviously this hot, fragrant pork stew was also very tempting to him.
Li Xinchen quickly finished the meal, this pork stew is more vegetables and less meat after all, but in this era of war, it is already very good to be able to see the meat slices. Putting down the bowl casually, Li Xinchen stood up and looked around, many craftsmen and Ding Zhuang had already finished eating, Li Xinchen immediately said aloud: "Brothers, I came here today, I saw that you were doing a good job, and I was very happy to see that you were eating well!" ”
Li Xinchen's loud voice rose from the ground, and eyes suddenly converged on him. And Li Xinchen waved his hand: "The land you are stepping on now will be built into the largest workshop in Bashu within a year, and the agricultural equipment produced from this workshop will be able to meet the agricultural needs of the entire Bashu; The arrows, knives and guns produced from this workshop will allow an army of 100,000 to sweep the world; The siege equipment made from this workshop will make it impossible for any fortified city in the world to stop our soldiers! ”
A famous craftsman looked at Li Xinchen excitedly, they knew that what Li Xinchen said was true, and they knew that Li Xinchen had described the most ideal future for them but was gradually being realized.
Li Xinchen stomped his feet and said loudly: "You have nothing to be inferior, and you have nothing to regret, the sweat and strength you threw today are all to support this piece of heaven above our heads together!" So—"
