Chapter Seventy-Two: Stumbling Steps

Chapter Seventy-Two: Stumbling Steps

In 1910, there were two revolutionary parties in Xi'an, one called Jing Meijiu and the other Du Zhongfu. When these two were drinking soy milk at a certain stall, Du Zhong saw a meteor passing by in the sky, and casually said, "The comet is here, and it has been two and a half years since Xuantong!" ”

Jing Meijiu came very cooperatively: "This nursery rhyme has been passed on for a long time, I don't know what it means." ”

Interestingly, the soy milk seller didn't report such a big rebellion, but agreed with it: "What do you mean, that is, the Qing Dynasty is almost over." The Ming Dynasty is only more than 200 years old, and the Qing Dynasty is also more than 200 years old, isn't it dead? ”

The next day, neither of them took the matter seriously, but as soon as they went out, the rumor spread throughout the city. Chapter Seventy-Two: Stumbling Steps

The Qing Dynasty is really exhausted! The peddlers all thought so, which shows that the people's hearts were lost at that time.

Fang Jianxiong, who was far away in Wuhu, disdained this kind of rumor, and what Fang Heizhai believed most was the barrel of the gun, which was the ocean. Without these two things, you can't play anything.

Under a hillside outside Wuhu County, which is not too high, not many people pay attention to the roar of the manufacturing bureau. The land in this area was all bought by the Eurasia Group.

Fang Jianxiong, who was dressed in civilian clothes, walked in the workshop, and Li Muyan, the core staff, and the German engineers Gio, Sting, and others who were kidnapped from Germany with high salaries accompanied him all the way. That's right, this Gyosten was kidnapped, this guy used to run a machine shop, and it didn't run well and went out of business. Fang Jianxiong asked Biel to help find some engineers who could work for a long time, but Biel sent someone to tie up Geosten and gave two options, sign a long-term contract to go to China, you can pay off your debts for him, or pay off your debts immediately. GiAusten, who couldn't repay the bank loan, had to come to China to mess around. Unexpectedly, the treatment here is good, and it is more profitable than working in Germany. As a result, this guy also brought his wife and now lives in the family area. Fang Jianxiong was tight about these technical talents, and arranged for his wife to stumble in Chapter 72 as a German teacher. Classes for some students who are studying in Germany.

"This Tian Sanjin is the best technician here, and his skills can be compared to the German technicians. There are fifteen apprentices he brought out alone, but these apprentices have not yet been discharged. Gio and Stin pointed to a middle-aged man who was busy at the far end to make an introduction, Fang Jianxiong glanced at it with a smile, and found that there was a foreign devil standing next to him, holding a caliper in his hand, and gave a thumbs up to the apprentice after he was done.

"Chambers, a retired American soldier, proficient in firearms, technician. His understanding of firearms is amazing! Gio and Sting introduced another sentence: "The manufacturing bureau currently produces 10,000 rounds of pointed bullets and 100 rounds of 75 shells per day, and there is no problem in repairing firearms." This is a successful imitation of the K98 rifle last month, and there are no big problems with the quality. At present, the biggest constraint is that most of the raw materials rely on imports. If the raw materials are sufficient, thirty shots of the Nissan K98 rifle are not a problem. ”

Ge Austen introduced triumphantly, but Fang Jianxiong was very bitter in his heart, this industry is really not easy to do. After spending so much money, there is only so much production now.

Taking the rifle in Geaosistin's hand, Fang Jianxiong skillfully fiddled with it, and praised with a smile: "Yes, it is not easy to do this step from scratch." The batch of machines you want will arrive the day after tomorrow, do you have enough people to operate the machines? ”

"Manpower is not a problem for the time being, there is a lot of technical talent here, and there are more than 100 young people studying in the technical school, and they will graduate by this time next year," said Geaustin. After half a year of internship, another group of qualified technicians is available. ”

Fang Jianxiong's technical school is on the side, and the teachers are all recruited from Shanghai, and there are more than a dozen technicians from the German side. These technicians signed three-year contracts, and seeing that a year and a half had passed, Fang Jianxiong was somewhat worried about the shortage of skilled workers. Now it seems that Giosten has more confidence than the boss, perhaps because the factory is too small.

In the past few years, Fang Jianxiong's manufacturing bureau has been investing, and now the scale is actually not small. It is only due to some objective reasons that Fang Jianxiong continues to keep a low profile, reserve talents, and wait for the opportunity to break out.

"If the raw materials are sufficient and the new equipment is commissioned and installed, what level of output can be achieved per day?" Fang Jianxiong finally confirmed, and Ge Austen touched his cyan chin and pondered: "Nissan K98 rifles have 100 rifles, and 30,000 pointed bullets." 75 shells for two hundred rounds. ”

This number sounds like a lot, but in fact, Fang Jianxiong is not satisfied. The Bureau of Manufacturing has smashed in six million silver dollars, and not a penny has been returned, in exchange for this production and a pile of scrap. This money is already enough to equip two infantry divisions.

However, this manufacturing bureau is still unavoidable, and it has no future if it always relies on imported arms.

"No, it's too little! And find a way to improve! You see if this will work, and hand over some simple parts to outside companies to do. Such as butts, bayonets, etc.! Fang Jianxiong made an opinion, at the moment, he came to this place by himself, it was really a waste of manpower.

"In this way, I am confident that I will increase my output by 20 percent." Ge Austen replied very rigorously: "If you can, the first batch of students from the technical school will be out next winter, and after the internship, a batch of machinery and equipment will be introduced, and the production capacity should be more than doubled." ”

So be it! Although Fang Jianxiong was still a little dissatisfied, there was nothing to do. When the work is over, he has to praise in a happy tone: "That's right, don't be intoxicated with the results in front of you." ”

Leaving the manufacturing bureau, Fang Jianxiong sighed slightly. "Why do you sigh?" Li Muyan hasn't spoken much, he is a layman, and he doesn't dare to blow himself up. In the past few days by Fang Jianxiong's side, Li Muyan has long seen that Fang Hei Mansion is ambitious, and it is not a thing in the pool at all. Li Muyan is still very happy about this discovery.

"It's hard to walk!" Fang Heizhai's heart is actually shouting, Nima YY novels kill people, and others can casually build up the industrial system when they come back. Lao Tzu has been busy for so long to make such a little belongings.

A river ship docked at the newly built wharf, and the crowded wharf was suddenly full of cheers, and for a time the gongs and drums were noisy, and firecrackers rang out in unison. Celebrate the completion and commissioning of the new marina.

The county commander Zhu Xiufeng was full of spring breeze, kept touching his goatee, and bowed his hand to the surrounding business gentry again and again.

Since the emergence of the Eurasian Group, the changes in Wuhu can be described as earth-shaking. New factories are being built all the time, bringing in a lot of jobs. Then there is a series of bundled cooperation launched by Fang Jianxiong to reduce rent and interest, which has brought huge benefits to the county's gentry and greatly reduced the living pressure of the people.

Compared with the surrounding counties, Wuhu did not have a single disturbance during the period after 1910. In several surrounding counties, there have been chaos of people making trouble. On this point, Zhu Xiufeng is quite proud. The rise of the Eurasia Group was under his care, although it did not take dividends from dry shares.

There was no Fang Jianxiong at the celebration ceremony, which is somewhat regrettable.

At this time, Fang Jianxiong arrived in Dangtu County, followed by a squad of guards, everyone carried two guns, and idlers should not approach!

Holding the map in his hand, Fang Jianxiong looked at the mountains and forests in front of him and said, "Is this Ma'anshan?" ”

George, who accompanied him, said: "That's right, this is it." I want to buy them all, and I don't know how much it will cost. ”

Li Muyan took a step forward and said: "At most, there are 200,000 oceans, of which 20,000 are used to dot up and down." ”

In the surrounding counties, Li Muyan's staff did it, and this guy is really good at doing this.

"Okay, then buy it, and leave the matter to Mr. Mu Yan." As he spoke, he picked up a pencil, drew a circle on the map, and said, "Move quickly, I think you can send someone over first, and do a good job of infrastructure construction first." ”

George, who was ordered to invite the Americans to survey, immediately said: "The plan has been prepared, and the construction is ready at any time!" ”

Fang Jianxiong calculated the time in his mind before saying, "It's October 10, 1910, and there's still a whole year!" ”

George shook his head and said: "The first phase of the project is designed to produce 50,000 tons of steel per year, and one year is definitely not enough time to complete the entire construction period." At least eighteen months. However, our engineers said that the second phase could be much faster. ”

The bull's head that the two people said was not the horse's mouth, and Fang Jianxiong didn't explain, looking at the barren mountain in front of him, he was silent for a long time.

"Let's go!" Fang Jianxiong finally turned around and turned over on his horse.

In Xuancheng County, the end of the bandits on Jiulian Mountain has come. The two patrol battalions that set out from Wuhu, one step at a time, have surrounded the cottages.

When the 37th Artillery Battalion set up its position, the infantry battalion officer Hu Yan Aobo, who was holding a six-fold Zeiss telescope, spat a mouthful, walked quickly to the artillery battalion position, and stabbed Cheng Zhixuan, the battalion officer of the artillery battalion, with his elbow. Huyan Aobo, who was born in the teaching team, has always regarded himself as a descendant. I don't like Cheng Zhixuan, the guy who came to take refuge halfway.

"I said Lao Cheng, you can't do it!"

Cheng Zhixuan ignored him, and after Anqing's failure to move, Cheng Zhixuan took dozens of people to Hefei. In the end, I couldn't hold on anymore, so Wu Yanggu introduced me to Wuhu. Cheng Zhixuan knew that Fang Jianxiong was also interested in revolution and sponsored a lot of money to the Alliance.

"Someone's coming out!" Huyan Aobo shouted, Cheng Zhixuan walked quickly to the gun mirror, and reported the ruler after a glance. The artillery that was already ready was immediately reloaded.

"One shot is ready! The second ....... "A full eighteen three-seven cannons, aimed at the cottage!

"Huyan, they seem to be going to surrender!" Cheng Zhixuan saw clearly that someone was holding a white flag. Huyan Aobo raised the binoculars and looked at it for a while, and said, "I just came out alone, play a round first, and then talk to them." You're spicy next door! are surrounded and want to negotiate! I don't see any blood, and I can't be spared when I go back. ”

Boom Boom! After a round of firing from the 37 cannons, the cottage suddenly exploded, and the one holding the white flag lay on the ground and did not know whether he was alive or dead.

In view of the chaos in Nanling, after Fang Jianxiong came back, he asked the German instructors to draw up a plan to regularly take turns to let the patrol battalion go out to suppress bandits! In the name of beauty, it is better to practice while fighting. The effect of this move is good, and when the soldier sees blood, he is no longer weak.
