The western part of Yanjiabao, near the Yuanhe area, now has a new name - Yuanhe Industrial Zone, which is the name of Yan Xueyi, and the manager of the Yuanhe Industrial Zone is Yan Xuecai, who is more optimistic about Yan Xuecai, this time Yan Xuecai's task has been completed well, so the six elders of the Yan family also agreed to appoint Yan Xuecai as the manager, mainly to manage the construction and production of the glass factory.

Nowadays, the Yuanhe Industrial Zone is crowded with people, because the Yan family wants to build a large glass factory here, not to mention how many people are needed to build a glass factory, even the glass factory needs to hire a large number of people.

After all, in this era, although the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom caused a great reduction in the population of the country, the population of the Manchu Dynasty still reached more than 300 million, which is still a situation of more people and less land.

Finally, there was such an opportunity to make money, and they all tried their best to be hired by Yan's firm, which would mean that the whole family would be able to eat enough.

In addition, now it is not only necessary to establish a glass factory, but also to establish a masonry factory and a cement factory, which can meet the construction needs of the glass factory and provide convenience for the establishment of other factories in the future.

Three factories need to start construction, so the Yuanhe Industrial Zone needs a lot of manpower, at least thousands of people, Yan Xuecai put two tables in front of the gate of the Yuanhe Industrial Zone just established, and began to recruit people, of course, only to recruit labor, other personnel who need some technology to go to the county to recruit.

It is very simple to recruit laborers, don't be short and thin, don't be lazy and slippery, don't be disabled, don't be disobedient, and tell the two clerks their names at the table at the door, and the two clerks record their names, and then let them press a handprint, and they are officially employed by Yan's firm, and the employment cost of Yan's firm is very high, and the laborers have a tael of silver a month (the purchasing power of a tael of silver in the Qing Dynasty is very high, and a tael of silver is enough to solve the problem of a family of five eating for a month).

When more than 10 people were employed, they were led into the Yuanhe Industrial Zone and were dispatched, and the task of the laborers was all kinds of hard work.

It is estimated that after the completion of the construction of the glass factory, about 1,000 people will be employed, and the masonry factory and lime factory will also need to employ hundreds of people, and their monthly wages will be increased to two taels of silver for those who have been converted into workers, for which Gan's firm will have to pay thousands of taels of silver every month, but it is not worth mentioning for the income of Gan's firm.

In Yan Xueyi's plan, after the construction of the glass factory is completed, a soap factory, a match factory, a fertilizer factory, a steel factory, etc. will be built, and finally the Yuanhe Industrial Zone will become a large industrial zone accommodating more than 100,000 people, and the residential area of the population in the industrial zone has been divided, and at first it is just to build ordinary houses, and when the steel plant is built, buildings will be built.

It's just that Yan Xueyi took the time to go around the Yuanhe Industrial Zone and found that the efficiency of the construction was not high, so he decided to make some changes.

In order to speed up the construction of the Yuanhe Industrial Zone, the workers are living in the existing houses in the Yuanhe Industrial Zone, after all, winter is coming, and they can't just get a simple house to live in.

And the change that Yan Xueyi wants to make is that every morning the workers have to conduct military training for half an hour, that is, walking in the queue, running or something, hosted by the simulation robot in Yan Xueyi's hand, loading the instructor module, and the simulation robot becomes the instructor.

The purpose of military training for these workers is not to make these workers become soldiers, but to make the workers more obedient to orders and commands, and to speed up the construction efficiency of the Yuanhe Industrial Zone.

Military training may give some workers an opinion, but after improving the workers' meals three times a day, the workers have no problem at all, they used to eat meat a few times a year, but now they can eat a little fish or meat every day, how happy it is, even if everyone does not get a lot of portions.

In order to improve the food of the workers, Gan's Commercial Bank did not need to spend more than 1,000 taels of silver, but the construction efficiency of the Yuanhe Industrial Zone was greatly improved, which meant that the time to make money was greatly advanced.

In addition, Yan Xueyi still instructed Yan Xuecai to select the best physical fitness among the workers and strictly abide by the order to form the Yanyuanhe Industrial Zone Escort Team, the number of escort teams was initially set at 100 people, the monthly salary increased from 1 tael of silver to 2 taels of silver, the food was further improved, and the simulated robot served as an instructor for military training.

It is now 1873, the Manchu Dynasty has shown some chaos, bandits continue to be everywhere, Yan Xueyi's father in this life is not just dead at the hands of bandits, and finally the Yan family has a high reward plus the official army, and the bandits are quickly exterminated.

If Yan Xueyi has an army in his hands at this time, it is really "grain" in his hands, and he is not panicked, anyway, Linyue County is the Yan family's sphere of influence, and it will not be discovered by outsiders.

Moreover, the members of the escort team must not only carry out military training, but also read and write, this is the team that Yan Xueyi started after that, and it must be trained in the form of reserve officers, with this group of people, Yan Xueyi can quickly expand an army, and with the increase in the number of factories in the Yuanhe Industrial Zone in the future, the number of the escort team will also increase.

In 1873, a rifle appeared in singles, and after Yan Xueyi's steel factory was established, an arsenal was also established to produce and manufacture various thermal weapons.

Yuanhe Industrial Zone is under construction, and the glass factories of the Gan family firms and various forces are also under construction, once the construction is completed, it will quickly bring huge benefits to the Gan family, and the Gan family will rise from this, but all this will take time, at least until the new year to start these factories can be built, initially put into production, and then gradually expanded, 1874 is destined to be the year of the rise of the Gan family.

Things are almost dealt with, Yan Xueyi also teaches his students quietly, and now these students are about to become 100,000 whys, because every time Yan Xueyi tells a common sense or story, the students will ask a lot of questions, for example, Yan Xueyi said that the earth is round, and it rotates all the time, and the students will ask why is the earth round? How can I not tell that the earth is round? Why didn't we fall off the earth?

Although Yan Xueyi can also explain all these problems, there will be new problems, and it will never be clear to explain, so Yan Xueyi had to say that he would let the students confirm it themselves in the future.

In addition, Yan Xueyi's monthly routine increased, and Yan Xueyi took out the silver to add a meal a day for his students, and even provided each student with a brush and white paper, but these things could not be taken home, which made the students very happy, and he also had the opportunity to write with a brush.

But then there was something that Yan Xueyi couldn't understand, and there were a few ordinary Yan children who also wanted to come to Yan Xueyi to study and study, why is this?
