Yang Baisui spent a year hand-drawing this map, and the map drawing was taught by his father, which is not bad.

It's just that the regular script marked on it is not flattering, where is the regular script, it is clearly a bunch of wild grass.

Yang Baisui knew that his words were ugly, and he drew this map just out of habit, but he didn't think much about it, let alone bring it to Zhu Shun.

Yang Baisui scratched his head and handed the map to Zhu Shun.

The font is worthless, but when put together, this map is priceless.

Coal mines, sand and gravel mines, clay, marble, gypsum mines....... There are more than a dozen kinds of mines recorded on the map, and the veins in Tongzhou are all clearly and in detail recorded on it.

Zhu Shun handed the map in his hand to Yang Baisui, and couldn't help but praise a few words: "You kid can, you still have this ability, you will be in charge of an industrial park in the future, dare not do it." ”

Hearing the mountain chief praise himself, Yang Baisui, who was usually fierce and unspeakable, was even more embarrassed.

Although he didn't understand what the industrial park meant, he didn't have the word dare in his head at the age of 100 years, touched his nose and said: "If there is anything you don't dare, if the mountain chief dares to give it, I will dare to do it." ”

Sensei said that he is the person in charge of an industrial park, that is, the owner of a factory, and he is basically middle-aged over forty years old.

Yang Baisui has not yet reached the age of the crown, he is just seventeen years old this year, and he is still a teenager.

However, it is also the most energetic age, just like scientific research, and adolescence and youth are the most creative years.

Building a cement plant is not simply a plant for burning cement, it is enough, it needs to build a series of supporting factories.

The raw materials for firing cement are limestone, clay and gypsum, so it is necessary to establish three raw material factories first, grind these three raw materials into fine materials, and send them to the cement plant for further processing.

The cement plant is located on the east bank of the Chao River, a dozen miles upstream, and there are just two mines producing gypsum and clay ore next to the riverbank.

The limestone mine is a little farther away, about five miles from the bank of the Chaohe River.

These mines are all mines on the ground, not those veins that accumulate water, and at the same time, they are easier to mine, and there is no way to pick up the leaks.

However, once it is fired into cement, it can be regarded as a kind of leakage.

The price of limestone, the price of these raw ores, must not be compared with cement.

It's just that after some burning, the price has skyrocketed from one penny of silver to one or two of silver.

These mines belonged to the private property of the local gentry, not the official property of the imperial court, and they could not be bought with the help of Wang Chengen's connections.

Zhu Shun knew that his identity was too sensitive, so he said that he was going to talk to these squires about business, that is, going to the homes of those squires, which would definitely cause a burst of chickens and dogs.

Who dares to see the number one disaster star of the Donglin Party.

I can only ask Old Man Song to find these squires.

After drinking two bowls of porridge, Zhu Shun arranged for a steward to invite Old Man Song over, and he took Yang Baisui and the genius students to the mine for on-the-spot investigation.

Zhu Shun rode a Liaodong horse, and Yang Baisui rode a mule and went to the mine first.

The other gifted students had no horses, so they had to walk over and agree to meet at the gatehouse of the gypsum mine.

There was no rain for the past two days, the weather was getting hotter, and the dirt roads were relatively dry.

The dust was a little bigger, but fortunately there was no mud, Zhu Shun and Yang were 100 years old and the two followed the dusty dirt road, and it didn't take long to come to the vicinity of the gypsum mine more than ten miles away.

Zhu Shunyang and Yang were 100 years old, and the two got off their mounts and led their respective mounts over.

Nothing grows on the bare mine, and the mine is not one or two, but a small hill.

From a distance, I saw a small workshop in front of the mine, and there was a thick smoke from the kiln.

Gypsum is not only a raw material for burning cement, but also a traditional Chinese medicine, with ephedra, almonds and other medicinal materials, can cure lung fever and cough and other diseases.

This small workshop is the workshop used by the mine owner to concoct gypsum, Zhu Shun and Yang are not close to each other, and three family members who are patrolling nearby come over with bird guns.

The leader saw that Zhu Shun was wearing a silk dress, and he didn't want ordinary people, so he didn't dare to say anything serious, so he advised: "This is Gu Shilang's private property, don't embarrass us subordinates." ”

Zhu Shun took out a piece of silver, about one or two weights, and threw it to the leading family: "Gu Shilang from the Ministry of Works? ”

When the leader heard the outsider in front of him, he knew that the master was a waiter of the Ministry of Works, and his attitude was much more respectful: "The outsider knows my master?" ”

Zhu Shun wanted to estimate how big this gypsum mine was, and when Old Man Song came, he could negotiate a price: "The official is going to buy a batch of gypsum, come over and see how the quality of the gypsum is." ”

Hearing a sentence from the official, the leader knew that this person was not something he could receive: "The official will be later, and the little one will go to ask Qin to manage things." ”

It didn't take long for the Qin steward to come over in a hurry, and before he got close, he listened to his flattery: "This official is not strange, the subordinates in the family are not sensible. ”

"If there is any offense, the small one will not compensate the official."

Steward Qin can be put out to a gypsum workshop with plenty of oil and water, and he is a person, observing words and feelings, and he is quite hot in all aspects.

As soon as this sentence is said, even if Zhu Shun has a great anger, half of it will be gone.

Steward Qin walked closer, hurriedly gave up his hand, and secretly glanced at Zhu Shun a few times while arching his hand, he was indeed like an official, and his smile was even more flattering: "The official is here, please." ”

Zhu Shun and Yang walked over together, did not go to the main hall where Qin was in charge of the poor, and climbed to the top of the hill along a mountain road that was barely counted.

Zhu Shun took out the clairvoyant mirror in his arms and looked around.

On all sides of the open area, there are twenty or thirty hills of various sizes, and beyond that, there is a flat wilderness.

These small hills jutting out of the ground are small mines.

The gypsum mine is not too big, it is too small, it is considered a medium mine.

It is enough to supply those cement plants with a daily capacity of 10,000 tons, but it is enough to supply the cement factories established by Zhu Shun.

To the north, there is also a clay mine, which is also the private property of Gu Shilang, and the price of clay as a raw material for firing porcelain is slightly higher than that of gypsum.

Zhu Shunyang and Yang walked down the gypsum mine and went to the same barren clay mine, where there is also a small workshop.

It's just that in this way of manual mining, the bit of ore mined is nothing for the entire mine.

Accompanied by Steward Qin, Zhu Shunyang and several genius students entered the clay mine smoothly, observed at the top of the mine for a while, roughly determined the scale of the mine, and went back.

There are some other data, and it will take a lot of time for these talented students to test after buying these two mines.

By the time Zhu Shun finished observing the three medium-sized mines, it was already noon.

declined Steward Qin's invitation, and Zhu Shun, who had a good heart, went back with the genius students.
