Chapter 768: Street Factory
The arrival of the envoys of the Northern Song Dynasty was like a small stone thrown into a huge lake for the huge Shenyang, which produced some ripples at the beginning, but after that, it was swallowed up by the whole Shenyang.
Zhao Xin also knew that Fu Bi was coming, so he asked Sun Yuexi to arrange a time, and they met, Fu Bi was Han Qi's line, but he was not particularly familiar with Zhao Xin, but when he was in the Daimyo's Mansion, he had a few dealings, and later, he saw less.
Fu Bi looks at Zhao Xin's mentality, it is completely different, if in this era, among the few people who Fu Bi admires, Zhao Xin is definitely one, to put it bluntly, under the situation of one poor and two white, just by virtue of a small island in the Dinghai Navy, in a few years, it has developed to this extent, I am afraid that even Taizu can not do all this, and now he occupies the Liao State and has taken the land of the entire Liao State, it can be said that it is not an exaggeration to be the founder of the country.
It's a pity that each is its own master, and Fu Bi must absorb a lot of useful things from the Dinghai Navy and develop the Northern Song Dynasty as much as possible.
If it is replaced by the time when he has just crossed, Zhao Xin may still win over Fu Bi, now, there is no need for this, even Han Qi is just put there, if there is a chance in the future, the Northern Song Dynasty will merge the navy, Han Qi is an important candidate for the first assistant, Fu Bi may be able to hold an official position in the military, but he will not be the leader, in Zhao Xin's view, professional things are left to professional people to do, the military, you can choose Sun Ji, you can choose Di Qing, but you will not choose a literati with some military talents.
Talents, Dinghai has always been lacking, compared to the beginning, has been a lot better, night schools and schools at all levels, began to enter the formal, far from constantly cultivating a large number of talents, these are flooded in all areas of the Dinghai, compared to the Northern Song Dynasty, from the tens of millions of people, stand out, Zhao Xin more trust in his own training, more comfortable to use.
Fu Bi faintly felt that Zhao Xin was not so enthusiastic about him, but he didn't say much, after all, he was the emperor of the enemy country, and he was really enthusiastic, but it was not easy to deal with, he had arrived in Shenyang for several days, and in the first few days, he was more involved in dealing with some internal matters, for example, the hundreds of attachés he brought, their offices, office methods, work assignments and the like, these things seem simple, but in fact, they are relatively complicated, of course, There is also the office equipment that is familiar with the Dinghai Navy.
A lot of equipment, Fu Bi has not used, for this reason, even specially asked Sun Yuexi to send a dozen familiar ones, for the teaching of different groups, in the first few days, there was no comprehensive work, just to do the basic preparations, when the preparation is almost completed, and also learned the use of the tools of the navy, let these people leave.
Time waits for no one, these times seem to be used faster and faster, and before you know it, a few days have passed, smoothing out the situation of the entire embassy, and after settling down temporarily, Fu Bi asked his subordinates to be divided into different groups to understand everything about this Shenyang, and he found Sun Yuexi straight to the point.
Fu Bi contacted Sun Yuexi, the purpose of the contact was to visit Shenyang, he wanted to understand everything about Shenyang from a positive direction, and hoped to have a comprehensive understanding of Shenyang through his understanding.
For this point, Sun Yuexi did not refuse, except for a small number of research institutions, and even in the future, even the steelmaking base can be seen, there is no place to keep secret, Shenyang, what is there to see, if these people in the Dinghai Navy are lined up, Shenyang is just a combination of some houses.
Holding the map, even if it was Fu Bi before, he was prepared, and he knew how huge Shenyang was, but such a super-large Shenyang still exceeded his imagination, this is a huge, unimaginable big city.
Bianliang is the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, and it is also the largest city in the entire Central Plains, whether it is the Liao Kingdom, the Western Xia, or the big food from overseas, Arabia, when they come to Bianliang, they will be shocked by the huge Bianliang, countless markets, more than one million people, the commercial area that makes people linger, and even at night, in the special Fang market, there is also the reputation of the city that never sleeps, these are the signs of Bianliang.
I'm afraid of comparing goods, before I saw Shenyang, I felt that Bianliang was okay, but it was really placed with Shenyang, and Bianliang was really compared.
For Shenyang, the Dinghai Navy was built on the basis of the capital, and with the comparison of the capital in later generations, Zhao Xin directly expanded Shenyang greatly.
The scope of the central urban area of Shenyang is about 60 kilometers in diameter, an area about a square, and the entire Shenyang covers an area of about 3,600 square kilometers, that is to say, one Shenyang is more than ten times larger than the previous Dinghai.
Of course, the temporary development, that is, about 800 square kilometers, has a total of more than 10,000 functional buildings, and there are almost more than 200,000 residential buildings, which can accommodate at least 15 million to 20 million people.
On top of such a huge city, it is purely data, it is very boring, one by one, the number is integrated into a very large total, but the shock from the paper, and then fall to the reality, the southeast and northwest to see, even if Fu Bi does not look at it one by one, simply from some high places, with the help of a telescope overlook, it is already understood that Shenyang is a huge city.
According to his understanding, Bianliang, a city with a population of more than 1 million, is already a headache, and Shenyang, this population is not only more than 1 million, this population is too much.
Fu Bi is very strange, why there are so many people, Bianliang has a population of more than one million, for Kaifeng Prefecture, it is a huge pressure, it is necessary to ensure the life of these people, and there are some low-level public security, as well as food problems, these have become the key to restricting Bianliang, Bianliang has almost no way to continue after reaching a population of one million.
Through these days of contact, Fu Bi is also very familiar with Sun Yuexi, this is a very capable and professional diplomat, at the same time, faintly, Fu Bi also feels that the Dinghai Navy is not hiding too much.
There is such a high-ranking official, telling him some data, and some theories, maybe, will inspire him.
Fu Bi asked so bluntly, Sun Yuexi was stunned, why are there so many people? It seems that from the moment it was established, even at the beginning, when the navy was only a small island of more than 300 square kilometers, the first priority assigned by Zhao Xin was to ask for people.
At that time, some officials still didn't understand, after all, the Dinghai Navy was so big that it could accommodate a limited population, even if it was in a hurry, they could wait and talk about it until everything was ripe.
This is their immature idea, and it was also vetoed by Zhao Xin, and everything after that proved Zhao Xin's insight, although it is said that in the beginning, because of the population problem, there were a series of problems, and even some crises broke out, but the navy carried it.
After surviving the previous crisis, all the development of the navy was very fast, and population became the key to the expansion of the navy.
Although there is nothing to keep secret, the population of the Dinghai Navy is not a secret for the Northern Song Dynasty, but it is a little too much to say, in the present, the population issue is still the core issue discussed with the Northern Song Dynasty in the future, and how to make the Northern Song Dynasty willingly send people over is the key to arranging migrant workers.
After a little consideration, Sun Yuexi told Fu Bi that early tomorrow morning, someone would be sent to pick it up, and when the time came, everything could be seen by himself.
Early the next morning, Sun Yuexi led Han Qi out in a carriage, walked about 5 kilometers, and came to a factory called Chunyang Street Garment Factory.
This is so far, Shenyang has been put into operation of nearly 1,000 small factories, Shenyang also has factories, because of the huge relationship, some small daily necessities, or light industry factories, can also settle in Shenyang, in the future, until a certain degree of development in the north, will gradually adjust to other places.
Now, in the current Shenyang, the adjustment is not appropriate, and Shenyang needs these enterprises to provide enough employment opportunities to support the economy of the whole Shenyang.
This is a small factory with the theme of clothing processing, mainly for the production of ready-to-wear, and it is a small factory with a basic assembly line formed by clothes moths, with thousands of employees and a very strong production capacity.
At present, Ding Haijun has no way to use electricity and steam into production, and occasionally some of the necessary ones still use animal power, but the garment factory is one of the few factories that does not use electricity and steam engines.
In later generations, in the early days of China's reform and opening up, the sewing machine was one of the large pieces that had to be paper cups when getting married, but that was in the early 80s, and later with the development of the economy, this was originally a thing that every family had, and young people almost didn't use it.
Zhao Xin has seen a sewing machine, but has not disassembled and assembled, but according to the shape, the basic principle is still known, to put it bluntly, the sewing machine is the use of some mechanical structure, so that the thread and needle are relatively fast up and down, this basic principle as long as it is there, the rest, is to think about how to achieve.
With the principle of appearance, and then working in that direction, Zhao Xin will definitely not be able to understand everything about the sewing machine, but he will put it forward, after a lot of research, under the invention and creation, the relatively simple sewing machine is still made.
In this small assembly line factory, a large number of sewing machines are used as the theme, cutting, rough processing, and professional processing in one place, and then through the conveyor belt, to the next process, and everyone is accommodated as a whole.
At present, among the four workshops, except for two professional workshops, the other two are large-scale and extremely fast workshops.
Sun Yuexi had done his homework before, and the factory itself was within the scope of the visit, but it happened that Fu Bi mentioned it, so he took the initiative to bring him here.
The whole process of visiting was only half a day, but after Fu Bi finished visiting, he didn't say a word.
Fu Bi is from a big family, and in the process of growing up, there is no shortage of clothes, but as far as he knows, clothes are sewn with stitches and threads, even if a woman with skillful hands wants to sew a dress, it will take several days, and it will take half a month to be slow.
The thread in the mother's hand, the wanderer's shirt, many times, the clothes are sewn with stitches and threads, like this, completely made by machines, I really haven't heard of it, but here he opened his eyes,
The simple process of a person may only take a few tens of breaths, and a person can complete at least 300 or even 500 such processes a day.
A garment, even if it is ready-to-wear, requires no more than 30 processes, that is, on average, each person can complete at least 17 sets of clothes a day.
In fact, this workshop, for the men's jacket, can complete 21 pieces a day, in the middle, some processes are a little faster, some processes are a little slower, with the fast to supplement the slow, through a reasonable arrangement, to achieve a relatively balanced state,
This is the source of an average of 21 pieces per person, and the entire workshop, a total of 120 people, that is, more than 2,000 pieces of clothing can be completed in a day.
It sounds very scary, but if it is completed in 10 days according to a piece of clothing, the production efficiency of the Navy is almost 200 times more than that of ordinary manual work.
This kind of efficiency, even if there is no cost advantage, simply reducing the number of working hours, can make the industry quite profitable, not to mention, this ready-to-wear is not a traditional ready-to-wear, not the same, not the same color, but colorful, and the form and style are different.
This part of the garment, part of the street and some of the community's workwear, and a part, that is, ready-to-wear, responsible for supplying boutiques, compared with workwear, ready-to-wear is in the assembly line, after the production of a part of the semi-finished products, and then by the master to carry out a certain amount of refinement, more high-end kind of clothing.
Fu Bi finished reading the workshop on display and saw these clothes worn on wooden models, which were obviously not so beautiful wooden models, but after putting on the clothes, they were actually very beautiful, so they could be worn on people.
In half a day, after seeing the entire factory, Fu Bi was shocked at the same time, but he didn't understand, why Sun Yuexi took him to see this, what does this have to do with the population, Sun Yuexi didn't say anything after Fu Bi visited, just said simply, there are countless such factories in the Dinghai Navy,
Fu Bi understood that there were countless such factories, and in these factories, there were countless such workers, and therefore, under the premise of needing personnel and even building a large number of factories, the labor force was insufficient, and it was obtained from the Northern Song Dynasty, which was the explanation of Dinghaijun's recruitment of workers.
