Chapter 60 Planning the Industrial System
Yang Sien took his wife back to his hometown to settle down first, and then went to Zhao Zhen to recover his life, and then he was busy arranging his new home. said that it was moving, but in fact, there was no belongings to move, and the commonly used furniture was matched to them by Zhao Zhenqing, and even the electric lights were configured for them in advance, and Yang Sien bought the decoration he liked.
Only four or five days after returning to the capital, Yang Sien and his wife moved from the more crowded compound to their new home in Xincheng. The structure of the new home is much simpler than that of the old building, and the outer ring is surrounded by a three-meter-high one-story house, which can be used as a wing room or as a protective wall when necessary, and is made of cement bricks and tiles, which may not be as strong as ordinary small towns, which is also a reason for the large families in the capital to accept it. In the middle of the enclosed space, a three-storey small bungalow with three entrances and six openings is the main body, supplemented by a variety of flowers and trees, rockeries and water, and even other amusement facilities and fitness equipment can be added according to personal preferences.
Ancient wooden buildings are indeed beautiful, but for the commonplace ancients, this new style of building structure was a different feeling. Chasing the trend and chasing the new is a common disease of human beings, regardless of the era. Under the conscious guidance of Zhao Zhen and his family, the wealthy family in Beijing is eager to buy a house in the new city, which also makes Zhao Zhen, the ** silk of the previous life, experience the feeling of a real estate predator in this era. Especially those who bought the first batch of houses, they were ridiculed by everyone at the beginning, but later, as the new city gradually took shape, and the housing price growth was measured in days, those who ridiculed it regretted it. In the end, Zhao Zhen couldn't stand it anymore, so he asked Zhang Rou to intervene, which slowly stabilized the housing price, otherwise this might have become the first case of real estate bubble in history.
Speaking of which, by the way, the composition of the houses in the new town. In the area near the center, it must be reserved for dignitaries and wealthy families, this can't be helped, no era can be equal, people have that resource to enjoy a better life. For these wealthy people, it is not a problem to buy a courtyard, and there is no need to worry about security, except that the surface house structure itself has defensive capabilities, which can be used for military deployment when necessary, and a safe house has been built underground, which can be used as a storehouse in peacetime and can be used for hiding in wartime.
However, for the majority of ordinary people, they certainly do not have the ability to buy such a courtyard, and with their status, they can only live on the periphery. In other words, once there is really a war, such as another soldier from the Liao State coming to the city, it will be the most dangerous for these ordinary people.
Of course, their well-being is not important to those in the "upper class".
Zhao Zhen and his family are from an era when human rights are supreme, how can they let this happen. Therefore, after Zhao Zhen discussed with Zhang Rou, he came up with a compromise solution. That is, in the original design of the Bagua type of new city in each piece of the division into a number of square courtyards, each courtyard and "back" sub-type design, the square door opens, weekdays can be extended in all directions, once into the state of war, close the door is a solid fortress. It was this unique design that dispelled the doubts of ordinary people about the new city without walls, which made the popularity of the new city soar.
Housing construction in the new city was an unprecedented success, and even led the construction trend around Gyeonggi for a time. But this kind of architectural structure was not created by Zhao Zhen and his family, neither of them has done architectural design, and they can't do it if they are killed, but don't forget, as a traverser, Zhao Zhen also has a general skill, that is, a cottage.
That's right, this kind of house design is his cottage Hakka walled house and Fujian tulou. But because of the appearance of their two outliers, it is not clear who is the copycat in later generations!
All in all, Yang Sien and his family were very satisfied with this new home, especially when they saw the electric light, Yang Sien was just stunned for a long time, but Zhou Xiangyu immediately knelt down, and since then he firmly believes in his man's remarks on the boat!
Seeing this, Yang Sien didn't have the heart to take a vacation, so he hurriedly explained a few words to Zhou Xiangyu and hurriedly ran to the palace......
It didn't take long for Yang Sien to appear in front of Zhao Zhen and shouted at him: "Minister Yang Sien see the emperor!" ”
Zhao Zhen glanced up at him, and continued to write the table, without raising his head, he said: "Didn't you let the kid rest at home for a few days, and by the way, take care of the things in the house, what are you doing here?" ”
Yang Sien: "Your Majesty, the minister can't sit still!" ”
Zhao Zhen: "Why? ”
Yang Sien: "Your Majesty, you see that the minister has been hanging around outside for the past few years, and he has not done anything, but you have got the electric lights out, and the minister is worried that he will not be able to keep up with you if he stays any longer!" ”
Zhao Zhen: "How can you say that you didn't do anything!" At least this light has your credit! Besides, if it weren't for you to keep an eye on the rubber trees, there would be no wheels of carriages running around the streets today! ”
Yang Sien: "That's the case, but the minister still feels idle and panicked, you better find something to do for the minister!" ”
Zhao Zhen: "Are you idle?" I don't know! I've heard a lot of rumors about me out there lately, and I'm about to into a god, so I want to know which stinky boy has nothing to do and is making trouble for me as soon as he enters Beijing! ”
"Hey, hey!" Yang Sien smiled embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, you know everything!" The minister knows that he can't hide anything from you! ”
Zhao Zhen: "You kid can't coax your daughter-in-law to care, but can you let your daughter-in-law control her mouth tightly next time?" ”
Yang Sien: "Your Majesty, the minister knows that the cheap is a big mouth, and the minister is deliberately dripping!" ”
"Why?" Zhao Zhen glanced up at him again: "Do you kid want to change his career to be a bard?" ”
"How can it!" Yang Sien hurriedly waved his hand and denied: "Your Majesty, you listen to the ministers!" Since you asked Xingxiu to pass the decree to the minister, the minister has been pondering all the way. You said that you let Xingxiu take charge of the sea area and let the minister take over the industrial department of the research institute, this minister can understand. We stayed in the research institute before and didn't interfere with those court officials, and they didn't bother to embarrass us to get along with you, but you directly promoted the minister to the Ministry of Industry this time, presumably there must be some major move, and the minister was worried that someone would interfere with it, so I want to use your name to create some momentum first! ”
Zhao Zhen said: "You kid! Still so goblin, goblin! I won't pursue you this time, don't do this kind of boring trick next time, you said that this is not enough to spread out to me? Maybe someone will already say that I am a monster with horns on his head and wings on his back, and I don't want to be a birdman! ”
"Yes, yes, I won't dare next time!" Yang Sien hurriedly went down the slope to admit his mistake, and then he asked: "Your Majesty, the minister is a little confused, don't you say that it is good to let the people know that you are a god?" ”
Zhao Zhen: "I'm not a god!" ”
Yang Sien: "But look at what you have gotten out, just take something out and the people will shout miracles, if you want to say that you are a god, no one dares to come out to oppose it, otherwise how can there be such a good market for that little rumor!" ”
Zhao Zhen: "Okay! Don't talk about what you don't have. Since you don't want to rest yourself, come and give you a task. ”
"Great!" Yang Sien leaned over with a pleasant face.
Zhao Zhen spread out the manuscript that had just been completed in an urgent manner, and said to him: "I promoted you to be a member of the Ministry of Works, hoping that you can help me gradually improve the industrial system of our Great Song Dynasty. As you know, before that, I made some attempts, such as the Jingxi Industrial Park and the Cizhou Industrial Zone, which can be regarded as a simple steel industrial system. But for the entire Great Song Dynasty, these are insignificant, and I also need a richer, more complete and more systematic industrial system. ”
Yang Sien: "Your Majesty, the minister generally understands what you mean, please give me a little more dialing!" ”
Zhao Zhen: "That's good! I'll tell you about my plans, and you'll refer to them for your own reference. ”
Yang Sien: "Please ask the emperor to order!" ”
Zhao Zhen: "You should already know that I am building the first railway from the capital to Luoyang, whether it is to build roads or cars, there is a great demand for steel in the future, and there is still a big gap, so the steel industry must be the primary development project." Secondly, the steam engine has been developed, and this thing also needs a lot of coal (coal), so coal mining must also be on the agenda. In addition to these two most scarce materials at the moment, there are various other minerals and fierce oil extraction, textiles, wood processing, and vehicle and ship manufacturing...... A series of industries that already have some foundations must be standardized, coordinate all links, and form a complete industrial chain from production to application.
At the same time, with the efforts of colleagues in the research institute, some new things are being produced, and you must do a good job of planning accordingly, so that these innovative inventions can be put into practice as soon as possible, and their value will be shown as soon as possible. I believe that when these colleges and research institutes that I have built are really on the right track, there will be endless mushrooms springing up. Therefore, this job can only be barely done by you, and those ministers will only disgrace Mingzhu. I asked you to be a member of this Ministry of Works, just to make you act cheaply, I hope you don't be like those ordinary ministers, staring at the big official position and not knowing what you should do! ”
Yang Sien: "Thank you for the emperor's mention!" The minister must always reflect on himself. Listening to what the saint said just now, the minister felt a lot of pressure, and he didn't have a clue, so he asked the emperor for more advice! ”
Zhao Zhen: "You don't have to be discouraged, this is a big project, maybe it can't really be realized for hundreds of years, this is just a lofty goal after all, and it is also a dream in my heart." To tell you the truth, even if I personally preside over this matter, there is not much bottom, you don't have too much pressure, just do your best, I will always keep an eye on it, you can do it boldly! ”
Yang Sien: "Thank the emperor for his trust!" Never give up! ”
Zhao Zhen: "Don't just shout slogans, be practical, you see the pile of books in the corner!" It was the result of months of hard work between me and the Empress, and it recorded some knowledge that you could use or could use in the future, so take it to study and study......"
"Isn't it!" Yang Sien followed the direction of Zhao Zhen's finger and looked at the half-human-high book, so shocked that his eyes were about to fall to the ground.
"I'm scared!" Zhao Zhen laughed and said, "Didn't you still roar just now?" That's scary! ”
Yang Sien had a bitter face: "Your Majesty, you don't know that your so-called knowledge is really difficult to learn!" There are so many books, and the minister probably can't figure it out when he sees death, how can he work for you! ”
Zhao Zhen: "Okay, okay!" I'm just kidding you, how can you learn so many books. What I'm going to tell you now is something else, and I guess you've listened to the tasks I've assigned you, and you don't think there's anyone around you to work with. Of course, I don't have the talent for you. So what to do? I tell you that when it comes to a new industry, the easiest and most effective way is to open an academy first, cultivate a group of talents for yourself, and then be able to have fun. ”
"I see!" Yang Sien suddenly realized: "The minister said that you like to build the academy so much, it turns out that this is for this!" Then the minister has to build a school first, right? ”
"That's right!" Zhao Zhen nodded: "My idea is to let you go to Beijing Damingfu to establish an industrial college, relying on Cizhou Industrial Zone, implement the dual combination of theory and practice, and cultivate a group of usable technical talents as soon as possible." At the same time, you should also use these books I have given you to select as few talented talents as possible for in-depth training, so as to lay the foundation for future development. Finally, I would like to remind you that these books are the treasures of my Great Song Dynasty, and those who are not loyal to my race are not allowed to read them! ”
Yang Sien nodded heavily: "The ministers have written it down, you can rest assured, the ministers will refer to our Royal Academy to open the Daimyo Industrial College, and strive to make it shine as soon as possible!" (To be continued.) )
