The soldiers of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division were originally very frightened, although they were acting on orders, but they did always work against Xie Hong, and they also knew that they knew that their own family could not be successful, and Xie Hong was the most vindictive, I am afraid that the end would be embarrassing!

But he didn't want to suddenly turn around, Xie Hong gathered them together, saying that he wanted to give everyone a way out, and the soldiers of the Terracotta Division were moved to tears when they heard it. It's already good to be able to escape with your life under the plague god, not to mention that you can keep your job, which is even more difficult.

Although the name of a journalist is not very good, who cares? Gossiping in the streets and alleys and finding out the news, this is what everyone is best at, even if it is out of the capital, where is it not a bastard?

What's more, Lord Xie gave everyone a very generous treatment, in addition to the usual Yulu, after finding out important news, there are bonuses and dividends, which is amazing, I have long heard that Lord Xie is generous, and now I see it, this statement is really true.

Although if the information provided is not true, it will also be severely punished, but everyone is awe-inspiring, and they don't go too far into their hearts, and all they inquire about is some gossip, who will falsify this? Trick the plague god? Isn't that looking for death?

Xie Hong first picked out some relatively clever and slippery ones, and sent them to primary school training as trainee reporters, and then removed some notorious or other forces, and the rest seemed to be a bit wasteful to be dismissed directly, so he simply waved his hand and allocated these to the lower court of the Ducha.

As a result, the lower court of the Ducha has another executive agency, and even saves the trouble of communicating with the brother unit Jinyiwei.

Although the public opinion strategy is important, as Xie Hongjin said, he only needs to set the relevant regulations, as long as the general framework is set, of course, the details are perfected, and he must take the lead in selecting people, but the specific operation is not needed.

The main person in charge is, of course, Tang Bohu, the first genius under him, and now Tang Dacai can be said to have many titles, and he is almost called by Xie Hong as a group of people.

First of all, he is the executive vice president of the Ivy League, well, the principal is Zhu Houzhao, who never shows up, and it was Xie Hong who was originally in charge, but after Tang Bohu appeared, he threw out his work, and he just focused on the technical school.

In addition, after the previous court meeting, Tang Bohu became the imperial history of the current dynasty, and he was the only imperial history of the lower court of the Ducha, which was completely opposite to the upper court, and there were very few people who talked about it, but there were many people in the executive body.

Of course, strictly speaking, the emperor Zhengde is actually a member of the lower court of the Ducha, but no one in the court is willing to admit this statement.

In the subsequent drama, in addition to providing creativity and original materials, Xie Hong did not participate much, from writing the script to directing the drill, it was all handled by Tang Bohu.

After Xie Hong decided to establish the Roadside Society, Tang Dacaizi, the screenwriter and director, was honored to become the first president and editor-in-chief of the Roadside Society, and the deputy editors-in-chief were of course his disciples Sangonggong and Ma Ang.

These two disciples of his are also as multi-tasking as the master, and the position of the eunuch is already quite busy, not to mention that the third prince is also the deputy of the chief of ceremonies and the commander Gu Dayong, and he also has the duties of assisting the prince of Gu; Another disciple, Ma Ang, is in charge of managing and training journalists, and by the way, he also has to train storytellers, and he is also very busy.

Busy and busy, but no one complained about these three people. Compared with the leisure when he was in Suzhou, Tang Bohu would rather be busy, this famous and talented man who has been passed down to future generations is actually very ambitious in his heart, but he has never been able to get the opportunity to display it before.

Needless to say, the third father-in-law is more intoxicated than being abused by Liu Jin and being a cow and a horse in Xiyuan. This person was not a temperate person, and at this time he was even thinking that being a eunuch was actually very promising, if he had known that there was a beautiful scenery today, he should have waved his sword from the palace early.

Ma Ang's thoughts are different from these two, although nothing has happened to Xie Hong and Ling'er, but he has always regarded himself as Xie Hong's eldest brother, for him, Xie Hong's career is his own business, how can he not work hard? Of course, I won't be tired.

The personnel problem is solved, and the hardware doesn't even pose a problem.

The printing technology of Huaxia was already quite mature in the Song Dynasty, and movable type printing had already been invented in the Northern Song Dynasty. In the Ming Dynasty, woodblock printing technology became more mature, and the technology reached a new peak, which was far ahead of the West in the same period. Even if he doesn't understand printing, Xie Hong doesn't need to worry about it, all he has to do is to set up a large-scale production.

Like those workshops of the Ordnance Division, as long as the process is divided into more detailed and then formed into a scale, the technology of this era alone is enough, not to mention that Xie Hong still knows a little bit about technical principles, and can also provide some suggestions and guidance.

Although Zeng Jian did not fully control the Ministry of Industry, but now that Xie Hong has controlled the situation in the capital, Li Qi, the left waiter of the Ministry of Works, who originally held the real power, had the courage to override Zeng Jian, but he did not have the courage to confront Xie Hong.

He is a smart man, when it comes to greedy silver, he has to be more than Liu Daxia, if he provokes Xie Hong, maybe he will be rumored to be the first in the world, then everything will be empty.

And after Liu Daxia was convicted, the military department was also leaderless, the left waiter Xu Jin and the right waiter Yan Zhongyu were both knowledgeable, one escaped from the battle on the night of thunder and fire, and the other simply did not participate, these two people would not say anything about Xie Hong's behavior, let alone set up obstacles for him.

Therefore, Xie Hong quickly selected many craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War, and added them to the printing workshops of the technical school and the roadside society. Originally, Ma Yongcheng proposed to collect more craftsmen and then expand the production scale of the Ordnance Division, but after Xie Hong thought about it carefully, he still rejected this proposal.

Most of those craftsmen have already accepted their fate, and their reliability is relatively poor, and the various workshops of the Ordnance Division are already operating maturely, so it is very risky to expand rashly. In addition, at present, the things produced by the Ordnance Division are mainly luxury goods, and the market is not large enough, so it is very undesirable to blindly expand the scale.

Xie Hong had planned to use fine iron to make farm tools, but after Zeng Jian's reminder, he knew that the original farm tools did not have any requirements for the toughness of the material, and paid more attention to wear-resistant, and there was not much difference between fine iron and pig iron in the wear-resistant surname, and the use of fine iron to make farm tools could only be said to be a waste.

Therefore, Xie Hong can only sigh that the interlacing is like a mountain, before the industrial revolution advances to a certain extent and can produce tractors, he doesn't want to make any contribution to agriculture, or is it the king to engage in this industry.

Therefore, Xie Hong's method for these craftsmen is to select some of them, throw them into primary and technical schools first, let them be educated for a period of time, and when the time is ripe, then start to fully promote the industrial revolution he envisioned.

The exceptions were the blacksmiths and firearms craftsmen under the Ministry of War.

Originally, Jiang Bin was very dismissive of firearms, but after really fighting with the Shenji Battalion, he also knew that firearms were powerful, if it weren't for Xie Hong's backhands, it would not be difficult for the Shenji Battalion to bulldoze the Ordnance Division.

Xie Hong originally attached great importance to firearms, although he had no expectations for the firearms of this era, he also knew that firearms were the only way to war. Originally, the focus of technical research was on gunpowder, but now that these firearms craftsmen from the Ministry of War have been obtained, it is possible to carry out research and development of other technologies.

Now the name of the plague god has long been resounding in the capital, although these craftsmen have lived a life like cattle and horses, but they have also heard Xie Hong's name, and they are also familiar with his various deeds.

The craftsmen first heard the news of Xie Hong when he was still in Xuanfu, when Liu Jin sent a few famous craftsmen in the capital to Xuanfu in order to imitate the piano, but several famous craftsmen could only look at the piano in Xuanfu and sighed, and returned to the capital in a gloomy manner.

Since those people are known as famous craftsmen, they also attach great importance to face or something, so after they returned to the capital, they also kept silent about it, but there was a blacksmith in the army who went with them.

Blacksmith Lu is a person who knows the rarity of the piano, the kind of steel that can be drawn into filaments, only in the word of mouth of the ancestors, can you see some details, but how to reproduce the technology at that time, the huge capital, but no one knows at all, but he doesn't want to see Xie Hong's piano in Xuanfu, how can he not be emotional?

Especially after meeting Xie Hong, he was even more shocked to learn that the piano came from the hand of such a young man. Blacksmith Lu was not taken seriously in the capital, but he felt that he was quite courteous in Xuanfu.

Although Xie Hong only politely said a few words to him, in his own opinion, it was not even very polite. But in the heart of Blacksmith Lu, such a genius craftsman, and as an official as a craftsman, he is simply a celestial figure, and he is really grateful to him for his courtesy.

So, without Xie Hong's complete knowledge, he had one more admirer in the capital, and this worshipper kept preaching his deeds.

Of course, Blacksmith Lu's efforts to publicize were almost unknown at first, because he said that he was only in contact with some craftsmen in the army, and these people did not quite believe his words.

You must know that craftsmanship requires talent and training more than reading, and even if a person who reads is stupid, it is just half the effort; But if you don't have talent, how can you do the handiwork? Even if you have talent, you have to go through a long time of training before you can finally achieve something, how can a teenager have such superb skills?

Recreate the ancient technique of smelting refined iron? When is he really a man of God? It wasn't until Xie Hong entered Beijing and set off waves of wind and waves that the craftsmen realized that what Blacksmith Lu said was true, and there were really people in the world who were born to know.

When they saw Xie Hong's true face, these craftsmen were even more amazed, although they had heard that the other party was a teenager, but they didn't see the real person, no one would have thought that it was such a young or young teenager. Everyone said that Xie Hong was the manifestation of Grandpa Luban, and the reincarnation of the ancestors of the Mo family had sent down such gods.

Therefore, Xie Hong's process of subduing these craftsmen was extremely smooth, far exceeding the time he had in Xuanfu. That time, he asked for dozens of craftsmen from several generals of Xuanfu, but in the end there were only a dozen or so who entered Beijing with him.

It is easy to train a literate person, but it is difficult to train a skilled technician, even if he is a traverser, if it weren't for the original Xie Hong, who also likes craftsmanship and left a good foundation, it will be difficult for him to get back his original feeling in a short time.

Of course, in the smooth sailing, there are also some things that make Xie Hong unsatisfactory, that is, he searched the capital, and he did not find the shipwright, except for the few that Zeng Jian kept in the past, there were no people who knew how to build ships at all, and the impact of the sea ban in the past hundred years was indeed extremely far-reaching.

This incident is very annoying to him, if he wants to carry out the industrial revolution, in addition to the development of technology, the market is also very important, especially overseas markets.

The other party is not its own people, of course, it can dump unscrupulously, and ensure that as much as it produces, it can be sold, which is the best model of the industrial revolution, but if the sea route is not passable, how to open up overseas markets?
