After the cooperation with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was reached, the heads of various departments convened by Zhong Qinghan finally rushed over.

In the past ten days, Zhong Qinghan was not in Donghai County, and many of the things that happened could not be dealt with in time, and Su Ziheng was even more confused and confused.

Now that it has returned and brought back tens of thousands of people, the most serious shortcoming in Donghai County, the problem of lack of people has been gradually filled. Next, we will carry out vigorous construction.

There were six ministries in the imperial court, which were responsible for dealing with specific matters. When Donghai County first established a government office, it naturally did not need so many departments as officials, households, rites, soldiers, criminals, and workers, but some basic responsibility departments could not be avoided.

In order not to exceed the system, it is impossible for the princess's mansion to set up six departments to manage various things in accordance with the imperial court. Only four principals were set up to assist in handling large and small matters.

Zhong Qinghan is responsible for coordinating the overall situation, arranging and coordinating people from various departments, so that the carriage in Donghai County can run at the fastest speed and without the slightest stop. What Su Ziheng wants is that once this carriage starts, it can't be forced to stop for human reasons. Therefore, someone must come out to preside over the overall situation, and this person, only Zhong Qinghan, the lord of Donghai County, is justified.

Specific things are shouldered by Su Ziheng, the chief of the princess's mansion. In fact, apart from him, many new technologies are not understood by anyone. Without these black technologies, it can be said that it is completely impossible to build Donghai County.

Therefore, after Su Ziheng and everyone arrived, the first person he asked was Mao Boyi, "Mao Gong, how was the pozzolane cement experiment I delivered to you a few days ago?" ”

Volcanic ash cement is related to the construction of salt fields, and this is the first project to ensure whether Donghai County can continue to build stably and continuously.

Mao Boyi took out a bag of cement that he carried with him and handed it to Su Ziheng, and said with a happy face: "Back to Lord Changshi's words, according to the raw materials and recipes you gave, dozens of craftsmen in our cement workshop finally succeeded in firing the pozzolane cement ten days ago after days and nights of sleepless experiments. ”

A hint of joy appeared on Su Ziheng's face, and he asked repeatedly: "Then have you conducted an experiment, and what is the effect?" ”

Mao Boyi nodded: "We built a cement tank from the freshly fired pozzolane cement, which was filled with seawater full of corrosive liquid. It has been 10 days now, and there is not the slightest sign of water leakage in the cement tank. And we have measured it with the measuring tool you gave us, and there is no sign of corrosion on the walls of the cement tank. ”

"Haha," Su Ziheng couldn't help laughing and said, "It's so good Maogong, this matter should be a great credit to your cement workshop." Over the next few days, your cement workshop will be divided into two divisions, one for regular cement and one for pozzolana cement. ”

"When the time comes, I will have people send you enough volcanic limestone, and your cement workshop will work for me day and night, and I will burn the cement. No matter what happens, you can't stop, if you have any difficulties, remember to tell me as soon as possible, and I will solve it for you. ”

"From this day forward, all the craftsmen in your cement workshop will be doubled. Wool workers, you craftsmen who worked hard to develop pozzolana cement will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver, and the craftsman level will be promoted by one grade to become a seven-grade craftsman. ”

As a teacher in his previous life, Su Ziheng naturally knew how to mobilize the enthusiasm of the employees below, which was nothing more than fame and fortune.

Therefore, Su Ziheng has set up a nine-grade grade system in the craftsman system, and each craftsman has the opportunity to be assessed twice a year, and once the assessment is passed, the craftsman association will issue the corresponding craftsman grade certificate.

In addition to the assessment, to make a great contribution to the craftsman association, there can also be an association to issue a certificate exempt from the assessment, which is also for some craftsmen who are good at research but not good at hands.

Mao Boyi was overjoyed when he heard this, fell to the ground and kowtowed and bowed: "Thank you Lord Changshi for the reward, all the craftsmen of the small representative cement workshop have kowtowed to the adult." ”

Bang bang You must know that the wages of the craftsmen in the workshop are not low, and now the monthly wages are four taels of silver, which is twice as high as other workers, and now the wages given to them by Lord Changshi have doubled, and basically the family can live in Donghai County without worry.

What is even more enviable is the rise of the craftsman's level, which not only represents honor, but also relates to the future pension. As the name of the elder is to say, any craftsman who retires at the age can receive the corresponding salary from the craftsman association every month by virtue of his craftsman rank.

In this way, as long as the artisan association has always existed, these craftsmen can be said to have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.

This is also a big killer that Su Ziheng came up with, with this nine-grade hierarchy system and the craftsman association, it can be said that these craftsmen are firmly tied to the ship in Donghai County. Don't worry that they will change jobs in the future and be poached by others, and it can effectively ensure that the technology does not leak out.

Because the longer these craftsmen stay in the artisan association, the better the welfare package, and the more reluctant they are to leave the artisan association. Once they leave the artisan association, it means giving up those good treatments. In this way, when they consider changing jobs, they will think twice about whether it is cost-effective, and Su Ziheng thinks that it is much better to tie up these craftsmen in this way than to sign a deed of sale.

The Craftsman Association will be independent and directly under the leadership of Su Ziheng, except for Zhong Qinghan, no one else can interfere in it.

This is because the Craftsman Association was established by Su Ziheng, and the establishment of various systems, plus all the methods of assessment and promotion, no one else understands except Su Ziheng.

Therefore, although many people know that the power in the craftsman association will be great, they are unable to meddle in it because they do not understand the skills of these craftsmen.

In order to ensure the sustainable development of the Craftsmen Association and avoid technological faults, Su Ziheng has decided to increase the opening of various technical disciplines in Bailu Academy, so that Bailu Academy will become a comprehensive college, not just teaching Confucian knowledge.

As for the teachers, it's even simpler, just go directly to the task issued by the Craftsman Association, and let those craftsmen take a few days every month to take turns to teach at the White Deer Academy.

Su Ziheng has received strong support from Guo Zhong Qinghan for the establishment of the Craftsman Association. Because she also knows that although the status of those craftsmen is not high, the development of Donghai County is inseparable from the hard research and labor of these craftsmen.

It's just that everything in Donghai County has not yet been built, and Su Ziheng's matter about the craftsman association was only notified when he was in the workshop, and it has not been officially established.

The official establishment will not be announced until the White Deer Academy and the headquarters of the Craftsman Association are established.

The construction of these two construction projects has also been put on the agenda, and it will officially start after the construction of the first phase of the project in Donghai County, the government and the salt field.
