No matter how glorious the Dinghai Shipyard has been in the entire world maritime history, but now, the Dingjun Shipyard is just a shipyard that has just appeared and is not even a baby.

In addition to the docks under construction, the docks of the entire shipyard are only 7, and now there are a total of 4, except for the largest, the most important experimental ship of 800 materials in the whole shipyard, the remaining 3 docks, are no more than 200 materials, the smallest one, even only 70 materials.

70 materials, converted into tonnage, less than 20 tons, compared to ordinary ships, is not small, but not to mention sea ships, even river boats, can not be said to be very large.

These boats are more experimental in nature, 2 of the 3 are pointed bottoms, and one is even a complete version of the Western style, not only with a pointed bottom, but also with a narrow body and a full set of sails, so to speak, it is a miniature version of the Spanish sailing ship.

It seems that the use of various technologies is very comprehensive, but the scale of this shipyard is not large, not to mention compared with the large shipyards in the south of the Yangtze River, even compared with some shipyards with slightly distinctive characteristics, even if it is the craftsman who leads the shipbuilding, he has no bottom in his heart, whether he can build this four-like ship, what will be the effect after it is built, and whether it can go to sea.

This craftsman is just a craftsman who has no ambition, otherwise, he would not have joined the army, working in a small shipyard, and the orders of the military, compared with the overseas orders for civilian use, are not only much less profitable, but even much less in quantity.

Here, his skills, not only did not improve greatly, but regressed a lot, all of a sudden, from 300 materials to 800 materials, there are still so many improvements, he is really a little unconfident.

This craftsman, unlike Niu Dali, has no talent, and his strength in all aspects is just a mediocrity, but he has played a very important role in the history of Chinese shipbuilding, and he is responsible for the transformation from Chinese-style sailing ships to seafaring ocean-going sailing ships.

In this era, because of the emergence of Zhao Xin, the tradition of Chinese-style sailing ships was changed, and the so-called Western sailing ships, Spanish galleons, and Galen ships, which had quite obvious Western meanings, could no longer appear in this world, and were replaced by Chinese-style offshore sailing ships and ocean-going sailing ships.

This craftsman, perhaps his own talent is a little mediocre, but he is an obedient craftsman, his strength, not persistent and not strong, under Zhao Xin's request, except for the bottom part of the ship, the rest are almost built according to Zhao Xin's requirements.

Zhao Xin is not only familiar with the development history of sailboats, but also knows the use of sailboats and the advantages and disadvantages, these combined, once into the ocean, can play a more outstanding performance than the traditional Chinese sailboats, and then use it.

This craftsman did not dominate the naval shipyard for a long time, but it was the most important stage, and he achieved the role of connecting the previous and the next, and many rules and techniques were laid when he took control of this shipyard, and from the middle, there were many technologies that were laid directly at this time and carried forward in the future.

Dinghai Naval Shipyard has great potential, and in the future, it has laid the foundation of the entire Chinese ocean-going navy, but now, even an ordinary large sea ship can not be built, and even at the beginning, the previous 20 ships were almost not put into operation.

In the next 30 years, like a snowball, Zhao Xin's expectations were truly realized, the first 2 years, 50 times, even later, every 3 years to double the speed, has become a terrible, peak era occupies more than 9 percent of the world's shipbuilding share of the terrible shipyard, the Northern Song Dynasty's maritime prestige, also began to show from him.

At present, there is no ocean-going fleet in the entire Dinghai Navy, and what supports the Dinghai Navy's liaison with the mainland is the fleet of some partial river ships, although some ships with more than 2,000 stones have also been purchased, but the overall number is only 7.

The navy lacks everything, but there are few real ocean-going ships, and even more so ocean-going sailors.

The sailor is the basic operator of the ship, and the difference between experienced and inexperienced is very huge, and in the same way, a qualified captain and navigator will make the ocean voyage twice as effective with half the effort.

Because of the entire Northern Song Dynasty, the shipbuilding industry was extremely developed, coupled with the gathering of maritime merchants, in the south, especially near Quanzhou, it should not be difficult to recruit enough experienced sailors and captains, but Zhao Xin did not plan to make a small fuss, once he established the direction of the ship, after the large-scale construction of various Spanish sailing ships, it was inevitable to carry out large-scale maritime trade and sea attacks.

In the future, not to mention Taiwan, Hainan Island, Ryukyu and even Southeast Asia and Malacca, they will all be within the scope of attack, but now, under the premise that the most basic ordinary sea ships have no scale, it is impossible to bring Taiwan into the jurisdiction in a short period of time.

Taiwan is a treasure road, which has not been developed for many years, coupled with its own unique geographical environment, not only has precious metals such as gold, silver and copper, but also is rich in various fruits, and the diversity is very high.

Similarly, the area of this island is also a huge temptation, a few hundred square kilometers of the Dinghai Navy is enough to lay the foundation, an island that is at least a hundred times larger than the Dinghai Navy, has a variety of specialties, and the most important thing is to have arable land that can be cultivated, which is even more huge for Zhao Xin.

As long as there is power, the first choice is this Taiwan, which is too important for hiding and developing.

Dingjun, if it is not a special geographical location, and the location of the Great Song Dynasty, he is not the first choice, the land is too little, even in the era of industrialization, the area is a very important thing, without enough area, the industry cannot be developed.

This point, which has already been shown by the accident of the iron and steel plant, is that if the Dinghai has a large enough land and a large enough geographical location in Taiwan, it can place enough industries to reduce all kinds of dangers to a minimum.

Taiwan is very important, and even all must be obtained in the first order, that is in the future, not now, Zhao Xin can only stand in the Dinghai Navy, Yaoyao looks south, has empty ideas, but has no strength to reach.

Perhaps, Zhao Xin is now using other people's ships, and it is okay to send some people up first, and hit a front station, but he does not know anything about the situation in Taiwan and rashly sends them up, which is irresponsible to his subordinates; now, the entire coastal islands are places that no one has noticed, and as long as the size of the navy reaches a certain level, it is a sure thing to occupy them.

The development of the navy has not yet reached the limit, and it is Zhao Xin's most correct choice to establish the navy to develop.

After this accident, the momentum of rapid development has been curbed, and it can be said unceremoniously that the entire Dinghai Navy has developed steadily from the previous high-flying to the present, but compared with before, Zhao Xin attaches more importance to the present.

The previous radical was very effective in the early stage, which could help the Dingjun Navy to rapidly expand the scale of production, gradually develop a complete range of industrial projects, produce a large number of goods, and eventually occupy various types of markets in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Now, from the safety production manpower, it seems that the previous momentum has been slowed down, but in fact, it has a more solid foundation, and now the size of the navy is quite large, and now the difference is some time, as long as enough time has passed, after the accumulation is enough, a strong navy will appear.

Concentrate on a few months, and even slow down the steps of development, mainly to lay a solid foundation, taking the ironworks as an example, in Dinghai has just been established to July and August, less than half a year, the steelmaking plant has formed an annual output of more than 2 million tons, now, five months, for the overall adjustment, the output is only from 2 million tons, increased to 2.2 million tons.

Since the establishment of the Dinghai Navy, in less than half a year, the Dinghai Navy has grown from scratch, forming an output of 2 million tons, and an increase of less than 200,000 tons in four months, but several important indicators of steelmaking have undergone tremendous changes.

The cost has been reduced by 15%, the production efficiency has been increased by 30%, and the safety performance has also been improved a lot.

The huge accident also made Zhao Xin see the hidden dangers of the Dinghai Navy on the basis of development, and only he can do everything well, some hidden dangers, or things that others are not aware of, only he can deal with

Zhao Xin simply didn't care about anything else, and went all out to put his mind on this, and made a series of changes to all aspects, and after the changes, Ding Haijun accumulated more things.

More stability, on behalf of the foundation, the current development speed of the Dinghai Navy, is fast enough, a slight slowdown, not only will not let the Dinghai Navy have problems, but will strengthen its strength, the strength itself, is the most important thing, a stable, will not retreat because of many accidents, is the real foundation.

Now the Dinghai Navy has initially laid this foundation, and the huge productive forces, almost every day, are contributing to the Dinghai Navy.

Another advantage is that the population of the Dinghai Navy has further increased, although the output of various products has slowed down in the entire Dinghai Navy, but the demand for manpower has never stopped.

From the very beginning, Zhao Xin tried all kinds of ways to increase the population of the Dinghai Navy, and there was a fixed population, for example, starting from the first batch of Xiang Army, now all the relatives of the Xiang Army have been taken over, and the Ding Navy has given enough preferential conditions to let these people willingly take over their relatives.

This alone has increased the Dinghai Navy by 200,000 people, and a man in the prime of life will radiate more than ten people, which is Zhao Xin's established strategy in itself, and these are also a steady growth.

Relatives not only affect the relatives themselves, but also some want to change their relatives, friends and neighbors, what is more convincing than the examples around them.

For this reason, the Navy has implemented a large-scale vacation system during this year's Spring Festival, and throughout the New Year's Festival, except for some factories that must insist on production, other factories have a comprehensive holiday, and from top to bottom, a huge amount of funds and materials have been mobilized to let these people return to their hometowns to visit relatives.

This method is in line with human ethics, most of the immigrants, they came to Dinghai, and also received some relatives, but not everyone is willing to come, there are many relatives and friends in the hometown, through the New Year, go back to have a look, it is also a good choice.

For the Dinghai Navy, hundreds of thousands of returning troops will become a tool for propaganda, as long as they want to change, or make money with them, these will become the new labor force of the Dingjun.

The Xiang army is an important direction, but it is not the only direction, the population growth of the Dinghai Navy, in addition to the Xiang army, on the other hand, is the disaster victims from the Huainan East and West Road, Huainan East and West Road, which is one of the rich places of the Northern Song Dynasty, but with the change of weather, not only the high latitude area is getting colder and colder, in the low latitude Huainan region, but also because of the cold air from time to time, there are many problems, floods and droughts do not stop.

Some of these disasters, large and small, may seem to be few, but for the peasants, who are already at the very least, the slightest disturbance will bankrupt their economic state, and they will become disaster victims and flee the famine.

In the past, for the victims, the only way for them was to escape, to look for food or beg outside, and under the premise of being forced to go out, they would be very miserable, buying and selling children in an endless stream, and even under the bad premise, even more tragic things would happen.

But now, the appearance of Zhao Xin and Dingjun has given them another way, and when they get to Dingjun, as long as they have hands and are willing to do it, there will be no problems.

The Chinese people are the most industrious nation in the world, and all their wealth is not a matter of cunning and plundering, but is basically accumulated through hard work.

Dingjun gave these hard-working people a chance, although many types of work, compared with the previous labor, a lot of tired, but Dinghai's terrible production efficiency, so that every worker got enough pay.

Perhaps I was worried that there would be some accidents, and the vast majority of the navy's factories were not in danger, but the pension system, when someone paid the price of their lives, could actually get enough income for the family, which also dispelled the worries.

Working people are not afraid of death at all, what they are afraid of is that death has no effect, and now, even death can make money, how can they be afraid of death.

At present, the population growth of the Dinghai Navy is particularly huge, and it turns out that Zhao Xin planned that the population of the Dinghai Navy will exceed 500,000, which is already very good.

But now, the Dinghai Navy has grown to 1.2 million people, and it is these huge populations that support the rapid development of the Dinghai Navy.
