In June 1906, after getting the 20,000 taels of silver brought back by Guo Jin from the county seat, Xiao Mubai finally started his own business. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info money opened the way, after visiting the magistrate of the county and the relevant gods, the factory, the hydropower station, the joint defense team and other things are naturally a green light, everything goes smoothly.

Biochemical engineer Cao Ren is busy taking care of various projects every day, and scientist Qu Junren is busy cultivating various talents. Time flies quickly, and it's the end of the year in a blink of an eye, and a lot of things have happened in the past six months.

After a season of planting, the farmers who tried to plant new rice seeds have achieved a bumper harvest, and the high yield has made everyone jealous. Now not only the people in Zhaojia Village, but even the surrounding villages have already known about the strange things that happened in Zhaojia Village. Now the old village chief Zhao Maocai squinted happily all day long and couldn't find anyone, happy, at his own insistence, his own few acres of land have all been planted with new rice, and the family's warehouse can no longer pile up grain, and the whole family will not have to worry about food in the coming year.

Seeing the smiling and red faces of other people's families, the people who didn't try planting at the beginning regretted it to death. However, after consultations in the village, it was decided to use part of the new rice harvest as seeds, and after distributing rice seeds according to households and planting techniques in the village, there was no wave. However, at Xiao Mubai's request, a part of it was later retained as a test rice seed for the surrounding villages, so that it could not only share the pressure of the surrounding villages to peep at the new rice seeds, but also spread the technology more widely, so that the planting area of new rice seeds in the coming year will be more expanded. Of course, as compensation for the provision of rice seeds, Xiao Mubai will give priority to purchasing part of the grain at parity according to the amount of seeds provided.

If the development of agriculture is gratifying, the achievements of the industry that has developed from nothing can be described as earth-shattering.

The scale of the hydropower station built by Xiao Mubai is not large, and it has been completed in less than half a year. Not only can it generate electricity, but it also irrigates the farmland, and the villagers at the local site office warmly welcome this kind of good thing. Besides, there is still a salary of 3 copper plates a day to work, who says that farmers are stupid? You know, peasants also have peasant cunning.

However, the construction of the factory was a little slower, mainly because Xiao Mubai expanded the scale of the site for the construction of related factories in the later stage, and its infrastructure construction projects delayed the progress. Of course, the training of personnel also took a little time, mainly the training of machine tools, lathes, fitters and other technical workers. To this end, Xiao Mubai has also set up two new technical schools to train factory employees.

The first one was a specialized technical school, giving priority to recruiting apprentices with a certain foundation, which offended some craftsmen at that time, and finally under the suggestion of Zhao Mingchuan, Xiao Mubai even recruited the apprentice's master to solve this trouble. Although the plasticity of these masters is no longer strong, but fortunately, they already have strong manual skills, but the trouble is also their old cow-like brains.

The objects of technical school enrollment are young people around the age of 16~22, according to the requirements of strong body, neat hands and feet, flexible mind priority admission, practical and hard-working people are popular everywhere, and can not let go, although these people are young, but strong plasticity. Cultivating first, more than 300 people were left behind, although it is not easy to raise 300 mouths, but fortunately, this year's wind and rain are smooth, the grain harvest is good, and the interest on rice seeds that Xiao Mubai rented to the village farmers at the end of the year has also solved this biggest trouble.

The second school is the newly established Junior Primary School. Because it is a new-style school, it has attracted a large number of children from several surrounding villages and towns, but as soon as so many students arrive, the teachers of the school have become a headache. Fortunately, Zhao Mingchuan, the primary teacher, and the students who were originally taught can barely hold on for a while, otherwise it will be really troublesome. After half a year of study, Zhao Mingchuan already has a high school degree equivalent to that of later generations, and even Zhao Mingjie, Zhao Mingyang, and Zhao Mingcheng have junior high school education.

It's just that the professional teachers needed by technical schools can't be recruited at all now, but fortunately, there are also two super cyborgs, Qu Junren and Cao Ren, who can still be used at present, and it is also a good way to take up posts while training.

In addition to the hydropower station, the expanded fertilizer plant, the steel plant, the cement factory, and the quilt factory, there is also a factory built by Xiao Mubai secretly: a mechanized factory. Although mechanized factories claim to produce chemical raw materials, they actually produce gunpowder and other items needed for guns and bullets. Because of the need for secrecy, it is only secretly starting production, and the monthly output of explosives is only more than 50 kilograms, and more of the raw materials needed for production are stored for later use. Even so, the storage of these raw materials is still very small. Of course, the role of this mechanized factory is more to allow workers to familiarize themselves with skilled production processes and production processes.

Xiao Mubai attaches special importance to military factories. Because of the need to set up a security team, after careful consideration, Xiao Mubai decided to use the Mauser 1998 used by the German Army during World War I, and the light machine gun chose to use the ZB-26 light machine gun developed in Czechoslovakia in the twenties of the twentieth century, which is the so-called Czech light machine gun, and the same as the Mauser 98, all use 7.92 mm bullets, which can effectively reduce the pressure on logistics supply. And the heavy machine gun is a better choice, the Maxim heavy machine gun.

Therefore, Xiao Mubai deliberately exchanged and installed a set of Mauser 98 production line equipment, a Czech light machine gun production line, a Maxim heavy machine gun production line, and 7.92 mm and 11.4 mm bullet production lines each secretly installed in the military factory. It's just that there is a production line and technology, but there are no qualified skilled workers, so that the daily output is really low. More than 40 Mauser rifles were produced in a month, two or three Czech light machine guns were produced every two months, and one Maxim heavy machine gun was only one in half a year. There are plenty of bullets, 3,000 rounds a month, enough for his small security team to squander at present. Therefore, the current output can still meet the current needs.

Although the production of 3,000 rounds per month is not much, even if the security team is expanded to 100 people, a reserve of 1,000 rounds per month can still achieve 2,000 rounds of training, and 20 rounds per person will be evenly spread. Only after this calculation and comparison found that this kind of live-fire training intensity is also first-class in Asia. However, explosives will not be consumed so quickly, and they are basically produced as much as they can be stored, and then stored after they are processed and produced into finished products such as mines and grenades.

It was not until the steel plant was put into operation that the products of the machinery factory increased a lot, and with enough steel could more new products be produced, so that the production team could be trained and the income could be increased. Of course, the most important role of the machine factory is to cooperate with the military factory in the production of munitions.

In this way, every day, a steady stream of horse-drawn carriages transported the soap, matches and other daily necessities produced by the factory out of Zhaojia Village to the surrounding areas. In this way, in addition to the fertilizer factory built at the beginning, it was busy, and after a wave of construction in full swing, a cigarette factory, a mechanical processing plant, a cement factory, a chemical factory, and a small steel mill under construction, two schools, and a security team, Xiao Mubai initially set up his own grass platform.

After half a year of development, after overall planning, everything seems to be in order. Everyone in Zhaojia Village is full of infinite yearning for a better life in the future, and this poor mountain village that even bandits didn't bother to care about in the past has also radiated unprecedented vitality. The common people of this era are very simple, and what they want is very simple, to have food and clothing, which is nothing more than a hope to live.

All in all, in a word. There will be bread, there will be milk, there will be everything. However, everything still has to accumulate.
