Han Qi left quickly, there was nothing in himself, and then he returned to his heart like an arrow, he needed to go to Bianliang, and then transfer to Shaanxi in Bianliang, a few months, it didn't seem to be particularly anxious, but a little delay, maybe, if he had to walk on the road for a few months, it would be a big delay.

It is estimated that within a day or two, the boat that sent them to Hongze Lake will turn around, and they will have a group of newly recruited boats that will come to Miaojiazhuang.

The blacksmith business is related to the top priority of the future, the value of the iron itself is very expensive, from iron to steel, there has been a lot of improvement, the industry is like this, the later generations are very cheap steel, in the raw material truncation, the price is very low, with the step-by-step processing, the higher the precision, the more difficult it is to speak, and the final price is huge.

In the Northern Song Dynasty, it is the same thing, some ordinary iron, the price is about 80 Wen, processed into ordinary tools, it will probably increase by about 50%, more precise steel, is several times, steel tools are 50%, to the god weapon, the price is far more than the standard of ordinary iron.

Han Qi's departure, Miaojiazhuang's relocation, and then staying, there is no meaning, some Miaojiazhuang villagers, a little reluctant, but Zhao Xin's prestige has produced a very good effect here, prestige itself is a very peculiar thing, people with high prestige, the words spoken, the authority is high.

Zhao Xin in the past few months, with a solid performance, won the satisfaction of many people, a year-round, can not be transferred to 2 families, each person, can harvest 3-4 income, some family of four or five people work in the workshop, but a month income of more than 20 yuan.

This is not a simple number, it represents 30 stone of rice, 50 stone of flour, and nearly 100 stone of miscellaneous grains.

Eating enough is no longer a luxury, just 30 stone of rice is enough for a family of more than a dozen people, eat well and eat well, and the rest can have more pursuits.

Zhao Xin has promised that when he arrives in Dinghai, the treatment will not only not be worse than now, but even better to a certain extent, which is their expectation.

After a better day, who wants to go back to the original, a year may be one or two, there is a headache and brain fever, even the doctor looks down on it, and even eating meat is like the New Year.

Now, for these villagers in Miaojiazhuang, eating meat is no longer a difficult thing, and a person's salary can buy more than a catty, not to mention that steamed buns can be bought at a discount.

In terms of blacksmiths, this is different, it involves more, some of which are about a hundred or so, which are around Miaojiazhuang, some are hired from Baozhou, and some are in the military camp.

The blacksmiths in the barracks, except for a very small part, are not established, do not belong to the standing army, and are mostly forced to serve on temporary signs when performing military tasks, and these people are not very happy.

In the short time that they followed Zhao Xin, they underwent earth-shaking changes, not only mastering the refining method of divine weapons, but also making a lot of money.

Money is an important issue in ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad, and many contradictions lie in the uneven distribution of spoils, and many changes are also because of money.

Zhao Xinxin made real money, which proved that only by following him can he make money, and the most important thing, in fact, lies in his identity.

These blacksmiths, they don't have a good life, Shinong industry and commerce, it seems that the workers are higher than the merchants, but in fact, because the merchants are richer, most of the time, the merchants can use money to buy labor, but the craftsmen can't, the merchants can be replaced, how to replace the craftsmen, you can't just come up alone, you can strike iron, isn't that a joke?

As long as there are signs, as long as there is labor, the craftsmen can't run, the only two can be exempted, one is to be an official, becoming an official can be exempted from labor, even if it is only a petty official, but in the craftsman system, even the master craftsman of a workshop may not be an official, let alone an ordinary craftsman, this is basically an impossible thing.

The other is to find a non-labor opponent, these places are not ordinary provinces or states, but border military states, as long as this military state does not encounter war, they will not be recruited, generally speaking, the army of the border military state will not be transferred casually.

It's a pity that there are too many people competing for such a good thing, and it is not their turn.

The appearance of Zhao Xin is an opportunity, Dinghai, not on the border of Liao, nor on the border of Western Xia, this is a border close to the sea, in a certain sense, this is a very safe place, I am afraid that the Northern Song Dynasty is in the midst of war, not necessarily here, this is a very good place.

Perhaps for other craftsmen, they still need to be selected and wait for the recruitment of the Dinghai Navy, but these blacksmiths who are already here have given up the idea of returning and want to join the Dinghai Navy.

For these, Zhao Xin is not refusal, it can be said that the blacksmiths who followed Han Qi were recruited by him, and there are a lot of them, about 180 blacksmiths, and 400 blacksmith apprentices.

These people first followed Zhao Xin to the Dinghai Navy, and when some household registration and civilian officials of the Dinghai Navy arrived, they would go through some formalities for them, and as long as this procedure was completed, they could become a member of the Dinghai Navy.

Whether they were recruited or followed, they were quite obedient and did what Zhao Xin said, not only in the process of experimentation, but also in the process of relocation.

Miaojiazhuang's side is almost ready, the first batch of blacksmiths have begun to pack their things, there are not many things to relocate, except for the tools they carry, they are some personal belongings.

Traveling to the Daimyo's Mansion, which is a huge project, unlike soap and steamed buns, which is destined to sweep the entire Great Song business, a large number of excellent ironware, can also improve the production efficiency of the entire Great Song Dynasty.

After entering the Iron Age, the use of iron tools increased production efficiency, but there is still a certain difference between iron and steel, especially for agricultural tools.

Steel is sharper than iron, and it is more labor-saving, and the use of less material will be less, and the service life will be greatly increased.

However, in the absence of a scientific method and without understanding the difference between steel and iron, going from iron to steel requires not only a huge amount of labor, but also opportunities.

If there is no carbon in the material, it is impossible to turn iron into steel, even if it is tempered thousands of times, even if it is tempered thousands of times, it is the law of nature.

The appearance of Zhao Xin, first of all, spanned this process, he not only knew the difference between iron and steel, but also knew some smelting methods, which directly opened the era of steel in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Productivity is always the first priority in the development of production, and in order to raise the level of productivity, it is necessary to improve the tools, from ordinary wooden or stone tools, to bronze tools, to iron tools, these improvements have promoted great progress in productivity.

In fact, the biggest change is in the first industrial revolution in modern times, the emergence of the steam engine, replacing the original water and wind and other simple energy operation methods, the natural fuel into kinetic energy, greatly changed the world, has been different from the result of progress from materials, the industrial age, like a terrible acceleration beast, washed away everything, developed to a terrible extent.

In the future, Zhao Xin in the Northern Song Dynasty, will definitely start the industrial revolution with the steam engine as the main body, for the countries of the world, there is no such favorable conditions than China, because the coal reserves are definitely the first in the world, which itself has this prerequisite, at the same time, close to Southeast Asia, there is rubber.

It's just that whether there is mass production and cultivation has become the key, but even if there is no rubber, Zhao Xin can also synthesize qualified items through the card system.

I waited for another 2 days in Miaojiazhuang, of which 2 fleets had been triggered in batches, all of which were about 10 200 stone sailing ships, because the blacksmiths had many tools, each of which could accommodate about 10 blacksmiths, as well as all their supplies, plus some raw materials and semi-finished products, 20 ships, only took away about 150 people, and almost three-quarters of the people.

Finally, the fleet that transported more than 5,000 people to Hongze Lake finally returned, it was a large fleet of 150 ships, and their average carrying capacity of 30 people sent the vast majority of the entire Miaojiazhuang to the distant Hongze Lake, where they would simply settle down, and then go to Dinghai.

Asked the person in charge, Hongze Lake, has opened up a simple camp, in fact, the place where the Xiang army was stationed, now, has been abandoned, after a simple cleaning, barely usable, they temporarily settled, close to 5000 people, to cross the distance from Hongze Lake to the Dinghai Navy, this is a little unrealistic, now the Dinghai can not accommodate so many people, they will spend 1 month, here to build a basic trading market, and one after another into the Dinghai.

The arrival of a large fleet also means that the relocation of Miaojiazhuang has come to an end, and all the remaining blacksmiths, craftsmen, and the remaining villagers who are willing to go to Dinghai with them will get on the ship, and the rest will not stay in Miaojiazhuang.

Miao Jiazhuang is the private property of the Miao family, when Miao Yuan leaves, there will be a steward to take over, in the future, there will be no business here, just an ordinary farming farm, as for all the income, who else can be given, when the person is for the fourth young master Miaoding.

It took two days to carry the ship, the horn sounded, one ship after another, slowly opened, and under the action of the slurry, they went to the far south, they were also the opening force of the Dinghai Navy, and this day also went down in history. 6610
