"It's almost winter again......"

Looking at the somewhat gray sky, I sighed.

At one of the stops on the parade of the rear states, I was able to stand in the midst of the smoke and noise of the Fuyuan Factory.

Choking dust and fog that never seems to dissipate, as well as the heavily colored cross-flow of sewage in the ditches, form a lingering part of the unfolding base of primary industry.

Even the workers who were busy working inside were dyed gray from head to toe. And their labor protection measures are only a simple cloth mask and an unlimited supply of salt boiled water.

Despite this, it is also the most common department for work-related accidents and overwork deaths. Because this is the specific needs of some high-temperature and high-intensity positions, under the current conditions and technical level, we can only use the relatively generous human lives in our hands to fill in a correct path and direction.

Compared with the narrow humanitarian complex of Xiaoxin, compared with the prospect expectation that will be enough to change and transform the future of countless people in the future, I and the mysterious creatures have a common tacit understanding and choice.

And in the history of mankind, any country and nation, in the process of completing the initial stage of accumulation of the industrial base, has always been accompanied by a less pleasant black history and dark side. The idyllic and easy-to-complete process of industrialization only exists in the idealistic brain that is divorced from reality.

At least I have a dual channel of internal crushing and external harvesting, and I have been able to control and influence the process, so that it can avoid many detours and stay on the right track.

Because it is located at the confluence of Yishui, a large number of hydraulic machinery is concentrated, so in order to make full use of the production capacity, it also has a primary combined production system including iron smelting, steelmaking, coking, sulfuric acid extraction, and even metal treatment such as casting, grinding, and cutting.

Towering small blast furnaces, coke open-hearth furnaces, condensate extraction pipes and ceramic reactors are the most conspicuous parts of the area.

Although the master plan seems too dense and crude, it is at best only a little better than the small blast furnaces of the Great Iron and Steel Age.

But for me, there is a kind of industrial party described, the vigorous and majestic beauty of multi-steamed steel.

Coal and iron ore from the ground continue to gather here throughout the year, and then in the black smoke and loud noise driven by countless machinery, they turn into a scorching red iron stream in the trench pipes.

Tens of thousands of workers can be directly managed on a daily scale to maintain the operation and production activities here in turn.

This time, after a long period of preparation and operation, the iron ore smelting and casting under the rule of the new six states just ushered in a period of output explosion.

Although there is still a gap in the high-quality steel products required for the military, the overflow of production capacity at the middle and low-end levels has invisibly supplied and cultivated the daily needs of hundreds of large and small iron workshops and corresponding workshops in various states and counties.

Therefore, to a certain extent, the vast majority of daily iron products and production tools in the civilian field can already be produced locally and initially self-sufficient.

Although the military gain may not be obvious, the potential and expectations in the field of people's livelihood and economy are quite worth mentioning. After all, salt and iron are one of the national capitals that have led to the rise and fall of dynasties for thousands of years.

As a follow-up supporting project for more than 10 workshops and mines.

At present, the Zhenfu Prefecture is popularizing the establishment of the grassroots level called the two institutes in various county towns and large-scale labor camps, farms and mines. One is an agronomy institute and the other is a technical institute, the former is responsible for training junior agricultural technicians in agricultural production.

The main task of the Institute of Agriculture is to breed and select a wide variety of crops in the territory under the leadership of students from the agricultural colleges from Guangfu.

This includes regular outings to field samples of various colors, and detailed records and evaluations of the growth cycle and the status of each stage of crops. Absorb and explore the shining points and details of innovation in daily production, and finally summarize a relatively reasonable and effective planting and cultivation process as a model for promotion.

Or use a simple water and fertilizer medium and a magnifying glass to breed seedlings with the best growth conditions and the most stable yield in a clean environment. When a sufficient base of agricultural technicians is trained, further accumulation in the prevention and control of pests and diseases of crops can be considered.

This is obviously a fairly long and trivial process. If there is no special guidance and investment, relying on the spontaneous accidental discovery and improvement of the people is simply a distant thing.

However, if the accumulation reaches a certain level, and the quantitative change accumulates into a qualitative change, once there is a result in a certain aspect, the benefit and subsequent impact are also quite large.

Therefore, it is a livelihood plan that is worth investing in for a long time.

The latter is used to replace the traditional manual guilds, centralized management of local industry craftsmen, as well as more efficient large-scale training, relatively qualified production technicians and apprentices are the main source,

That is to say, on another level, for the handicraft industry, in a certain sense, it has become a disguised monopoly at the economic level. Including traditional hardware, carpentry, clay, and even feng shui, can be included in it.

The daily operation of their own property is taxed according to the regulations, but they have to report to the factory regularly, and then share and bear some peripheral construction business assignments.

And according to the specific performance and degree of contribution, to enjoy a certain amount of subsidies and support. When necessary, it can be directly requisitioned according to the map to make up for the difference between additional production tasks or accompanying the army.

Although this is greatly detrimental to the recovery of local people's livelihoods, it is also within an acceptable price.

At this time, a messenger also galloped into the Fuyuan field, and then a thick stack of petitions was delivered to me.

However, with the return of the secret envoy Xue Renfu to Hebei Province, I also got the news from Hebei again.

In addition, the general information and general situation of the ongoing civil unrest in Hebei Province were confirmed.

However, it is mainly attached to Weizhou and Huaizhou, which are close to the north of Luodu, and the east of Hedong and the western states of Luodu; With Jizhou as the center, the former governor of Hebei Province and the ambassador Zhang Bangchang as the leader, the eastern states are like self-reliant local forces,

Under the banner of the same Northern Dynasties, they are fighting against each other in a tug-of-war of fire and water, and all kinds of open and secret battles in private, each of which drives the local subordinates to attack and plunder.

Most of the Lu Long Army, which came across the border to help, was forcibly annexed by the Hebei Xingtai forces represented by Zhang Bangchang in the artificial chaos of the leaderless group of dragons after the naval division turned their faces and lost contact with the commander and vanguard troops on the south bank.

In addition, the army of the Saiwai princes and vassals, who had already occupied more than a dozen prefectures of Dai, Zhen, Ding, Lan, Ning, and Xian in Hedong and northern Hebei, went south from time to time to plunder places and participated in this chaotic war.

In addition, there are also the eastern coast and the edge of the north bank of the Yellow River, the rogue and the rebel army that have sprang up all over the place, and the largest group is actually the banner of the so-called criminal state rebel army that we left behind, armed with all kinds of equipment and equipment, and has been operating in the coastal area of Cangzhou for a long time.

People can't help but feel a little unbelievable.

Compared with Huainan Province, which is mostly chaotic and the situation is unclear due to the floods, the news in the Jiangnan area is still being delivered in a steady stream, but most of them are all kinds of bad news and bad news that make things worse.

"The official receives a one-year-old endowment, and the people lose several times and more than ten times." As a result, "the people are in heavy distress, and many people are starving to death, and they all complain about the actions of the country." It was the money chaos in Jinghu, Jiangxi, Jiangdong, and Zhejiang that swarmed, and it turned into a large-scale rebellion that lasted for a long time.

In Jiangxi alone, there are "dozens of hundreds, thousands to tens of hundreds of people", and those who have already attacked the county seat and occupied one side include Guan Tianxia, Wu Heilong, Zhuo Monk, and He Baiqi. Man Xiaohong and Zhu Ming led more than a dozen anti-rebellion troops.

There are also the remnants of the Dayun cult in Xuanzhou, the Xuanzhou Zhizhou who was killed in the Xuancheng riot led by Yu, and directly broke the office in the city.

This is also the highest-ranking official and relative nobleman who has died at present, and it is for the anger of Jiangning that he ordered all the chaotic parties in Xuancheng not to be left behind, and there will be no leniency.

In addition, there are also the riots of miners Liu Hua, He Hua and others in western Zhejiang, and the flow of salt barons and horses in the east coast of Zhejiang is raging for a long time......

This rebellion even spread to Xunzhou, Meizhou, Chaozhou, Huizhou and other places in the mountains.

Even later, there were fishermen in Taizhou, Zhejiang, Shanmen in Chuanzhou, Jiangxi, Yining County, Jianzhou, Fujian, Hengzhou, Zhejiang, and peasant households in Jizhou, Jiangxi.

The large areas of the southern provinces of the Yangtze River have been transformed into a new battlefield for conquest and fighting.

On the contrary, in this corner of Huaidong, where I am located, the six states under my direct control, plus several other states that I partially control, have become in a sense a paradise on earth far from the chaos of conquest and war.
