The land where the well should be drilled is indeed there, and it really can't run. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Chen Jian did not startle the snakes, those who used the flotation method to skim the oil from the spillover layer of natural oil seedlings are still in the most basic stage of oil fishing, and the oil is not worth much now.

Formal oil refining is a highly technical industry, but local oil refining sometimes only requires two iron pots.

Without him, when oil was mined at the beginning, the most worthless thing was gasoline and diesel that were thrown away, and the only useful thing was kerosene.

In some places where oil can be gushed out even if you dig a pit, the method of refining oil in the black workshop is to find a large iron tank and fill it with crude oil. Then use the dug oil as firewood, pour it on the iron pot and ignite it to heat and distill...... This is called the destruction of heavenly things, but people waste it, because no one cares about the war, except for the cost of burning and burning, the cost is negligible.

What's more, collecting plastic bags filled with oil and stuffing them together to set up a large iron pot can also make diesel, which is nothing more than easy to die.

At this time, there was not even a steam engine, and Jian Chen would not think about any internal combustion engine. However, the kerosene is definitely suitable for lighting, and the waste gasoline can also be used as some weapons suitable for attacking fortresses and engaging in war.

There is no doubt that kerosene lamps are better than most of today's lamps and candles, which means that whale oil can be stronger than kerosene.

There may not be an oil field worth exploiting if there are oil seedlings, but the probability is still 100 times greater than that of flat land.

There are oil fields, and it is not realistic to dig pits to extract oil, and the well drilling method is the right way.

Chen Jian taught all the local methods, but this local method is very useful, and orthodox Huaxia relied on this local method to drill a thousand-meter-deep salt well hundreds of years ago, which is actually the fifth great invention. It is said that some Sichuan people went to Citigroup to build railways, and only then did they spread this method of drilling wells to Citigroup, and only then did they have the glory of Oil Creek.

Chen Jian didn't expect that if he was lucky, he would be able to produce oil for dozens of meters, and even if he didn't get out, he could practice his skills in front of him.

Oil can be extracted, salt can also be extracted, these are all profitable business, the speed of transmission, and can promote cattle farming, promote the rapid spread of corn and other feed crops that have not yet appeared.

Roller plus cattle instead of oil production nodding machine; cowhide and bamboo instead of check valves; Bamboo tube and bamboo wall instead of oil well wall; Iron pot distillation kettle replaces oil refining equipment; Wooden barrels instead of iron oil drums; lamps with kerosene lamps instead of gasoline and diesel profits; The blood of the tired old cow that could not work was replaced by petrochemical industry, proving that dyes not only come from plants and natural minerals, but can be synthetic, paving a new way.

If the oil layer is very shallow, say only twenty or thirty meters, then this is a completely feasible road, which can drive a large number of upstream and downstream industries, and can accumulate technology in the right direction in advance.

One step at a time, one step at a time.

Technology is a two-way demand, and although the current technology for oil production and refining is not up to par, new technologies with the same huge profits will also promote the development of various industries related to it.

Water pumps, pumps, check valves, cast iron, barrel making, seals, thermometers, pipes, wires, ...... And so on, you can be driven by reverse demand, rather than waiting until these things are ready.

The most important thing is that there is no oil production industry in the mining tax category, and Chen Jian can avoid tax evasion. If the earliest developed industries can achieve monopoly on their own, then when necessary, there will be no violent resistance when the state determines the taxation.

This was a matter of great concern to Chen Jian, and for this reason he solemnly visited the officials in Nan'an.

The officials of Nan'an County, led by Mi Yuanshan, also attached great importance to Chen Jian's arrival, wealth determines the sense of existence, and Chen Jian not only made himself rich, but also really drove the development of the entire Nan'an County.

Glass factories, acid and alkali factories, crucible steel, and explosives factories are all technology monopoly industries.

Nan'an is like a huge sanitary napkin, relying on the sea transportation of Mincheng, sucking the blood of various coastal counties and counties across the country to Nan'an.

Taxes are paid in Nan'an; The number of hired workers is also limited to the locals of Nan'an; A large number of donations and bribes also occurred in Nan'an.

The cash ran from all over the country to Chen Jian, who then distributed it to the employees, who in turn spent it in Nan'an. The merchants of Mincheng, the chamber of commerce of the capital, and the children who are studying...... All this has made Nan'an more prosperous than before.

There are more wine shops, more inns, and more horse material vehicles in Linmin River, which can be said to be very different from before.

In addition, Chen Jian held exhibitions and sales in the capital, using the name of Nan'an County, which made this originally ordinary county unique.

Now that Nan'an's officials are all on the top, these officials certainly know that if Chen Jian leaves suddenly, Nan'an is afraid that there will be large-scale riots overnight.

And if it weren't for Jian Chen, Nan'an's name would not be so shining in the capital, and it can be said that women and children know it.

In addition, Chen Jian now has the identity of Mr. Xuegong, rich and famous, and he can really be regarded as a celebrity in the county.

If such a person wants to buy a piece of land in the county, it is not a matter of words.

Although the people who are digging in that wasteland will also give some filial piety every year, but that is only a few dollars?

These officials calculated in their hearts that Chen Jian gave more money every year on the grounds that it was too hot in the summer and needed to buy some saltpeter to cool it so as not to get sick under the scorching heat and delay the major events in the county.

Moreover, Chen Jian did not want to take advantage, not only to buy land, but to buy land in the name of mining, and the land price was high.

Normally, even if such a character wants to open a mine, it is in the name of buying farmland, pastures, firewood, etc.

The price difference is a bit big, Chen Jian happily took out the money, and this side readily agreed.

Bought a piece of land of about 1,000 acres, encircled all the places where Zhao Si found the oil seedlings, and when the title deed was in hand, Chen Jian was not in a hurry to drive those people away, waiting for the students in the technical school to practice the percussion drilling method and gradually become proficient and perfect several important details.

After buying the land, I went to visit the distant mountains to discuss another matter.

It was completely different from Chen Jian's attitude when he first came here two years ago, but no one mentioned anything like Chen Siwen's life-saving, just that it didn't happen at all.

At that time, Chen Jian brought three or four people to Nan'an, and Yuanshan thought that Chen Jian just wanted to do some small business, and he didn't want to be so big that even he was a little surprised after two years.

Originally, I thought it would just take care of it, but now it seems that the two of them can talk about drinking and helping each other.

He asked others to retreat, but just feasted Chen Jian alone, and Chen Jian didn't mention what Chen Siwen mentioned.

"Mr. Chen didn't buy land this time, did he?"

"Of course not. I want to build roads and dig rivers. ”

Yuanshan sighed, frowned, and said: "Building roads and digging rivers, that's a major event in people's livelihood." It is only with the approval of the council that manpower, financial resources, and conscription can be allocated. ”

Chen Jian said with a smile: "I paid for someone to dig the river and build the road." It is not the livelihood of the people in the county, and naturally there is no need for the council to discuss. I contribute money, I am idle, and I do not miss the work of farming. ”

"That's a good thing! Great good thing. It is said that Mr. Chen is kind-hearted, and your Mexican Party takes the people's livelihood as its own responsibility, which I admire. ”

He Yuanshan thought to himself, if you pay, there will be fewer idle people in Nan'an. Moreover, the peasants in the slack time also have money to earn, this is not forced by forced labor, you don't pay much, and people don't go.

After thinking about it for a while, I realized that as long as the river and road were repaired in the south, it would be a great thing for the county.

Once the river road is completed, it will also be his merit as the head of a county, why not?

"It's just...... I am not repairing the original post road or river, but building a new road. It's not my own business, I have to give an explanation from the county. After the road is completed, within ninety-nine years, I will also have the right to levy tolls and fees. ”

As soon as Yuanshan heard this, he immediately became alert, and Jian Chen hurriedly explained: "You can rest assured, I won't grab the post road, not the Min River, just build a road where no one has no road." ”

"But...... There's nothing to follow, huh? ”

"But the law doesn't say for sure. If the law does not prohibit it, then can't it be appropriately adjusted between counties? As long as it does not violate the law of the land, the law of the county can be appropriately adapted. Besides, this is a good thing, there is no one before, if it is done, and then there is a matter of building roads and rivers, you can take Nan'an as an example. ”

Yu Yuanshan thought about it for a moment and asked, "Mr. Chen, what's going on with your river?" ”

"Profitable. I will not destroy the original post road, nor will I block the river. The original traffic is normal. If people think it's easier for me to take this path, they'll go from me. As for the toll charge, that's normal. You think, if you take the original path, the cost will be cheaper than if you take it from me, and I will naturally have no one to take this road. ”

Yu Yuanshan smiled: "This is what you are talking about laissez-faire, the invisible hand?" ”

Jian Chen also smiled: "Sort of." You see, as long as there is money to be made, then once the road and canal in Nan'an are built, rich people all over the country will also learn from it. For the people, it is easy to pass; For the country, the river road is vertical and horizontal; That's a good thing, of course. If you build roads with kindness, where can you make more money than to make money? ”

He thought for a moment and asked, "If it is profitable, someone will build roads and rivers." What if it's unprofitable? I'm afraid the money won't go to a profitable place, right? ”

Jian Chen laughed and said, "That's right. Where there is no profit, that's what the government is going to do. We, the workshop owners, the capitalists, have no obligation to the poor there, and we have no money to earn. Cultivated, that's kindness; If you don't fix it, it's understandable. ”

Yu Yuanshan also smiled: "That's the same." If roads are built in unprofitable places, what is the use of our officials? That's really a laissez-faire solution, and your argument is only unassailable. However, Mr. Chen, what you said is inconsistent with your party's statement. Aren't you most concerned about the livelihood of the people at the bottom? Supposedly, your road should be built in a remote area. ”

Jian Chen shrugged his shoulders and said: "The first rich lead the latter to become rich, you have to believe in the virtue of our workshop owner and big businessman." Besides, the party property can't afford to build this road, and I personally pay for it, not on behalf of the party. There are not many people in our party who are in the National People's Assembly, and they are not the kings of China, so this kind of thing is still far away. ”

Hearing this, Yuan Shan looked up at Jian Chen, thoughtful.

"The state does not have a canal law and a private road construction law. Mr. Chen, I'm afraid that you will lose all your money in the end. The regulations of the county cannot be greater than the laws of the state, if once the regulations are issued to recover the rights of way and canals...... Even if you are given some compensation, your money is trapped in it, and in disguise it is less. ”

"Brother Yuanshan, once this river is repaired and profitable, there will naturally be a canal law and a private road construction method. Could it be that I am the only one in the world who pursues profit? ”

"It's not up to me to say it alone, it's up to the county council to agree."

"Of course, it's a policy, not a regulation, so you don't have to go through the council."

"The ninety-nine-year period can only be talked about, and after ten years at most, half of the policy can be vetoed or the county order can be rejected at all."

"But within 10 years, unless it violates the law of the land, it can only be vetoed by a two-thirds majority. Ten years later, because this road is more prosperous and business travel is more convenient, is it possible that when everyone discusses this matter in the future, they will forget about the construction of roads and digging rivers in the world, starting from Nan'an? Don't you think of Nan'an Ling's distant mountains and dare to be the first in the world? If the policy is reasonable, the rest of the counties can be used immediately, but they can also be named after a hundred years. ”
