Listening to old Kate's words, Zhang Quan couldn't help but feel an inexplicable sense of crisis from the bottom of his heart. It was not as easy as he had imagined to build a force in the New World from scratch, and the eating and drinking of this large group of people in the team, the buying and selling of various goods back and forth, and even the future management of power were all challenges he had never faced before.

I remembered that in the months since he started owning the time shuttle, he got up early and stayed up late, forgot to sleep and eat, and worked hard,...... The tremendous pressure brought by all kinds of things that he had never encountered before made him, an ordinary otaku in the previous earth society, mature rapidly in this short period of time.

He also felt that the expansion action he had decided to make this time was too radical, and it had already brought an unimaginable crisis to his small business, whether it was the internal stability problem caused by population expansion, or the external threat brought about by the news of the large amount of grain reserves, it was a very serious problem, if it was not handled well, I am afraid that his so-called promising cross-time and space trade group would face the danger of dying prematurely.

The top priority is undoubtedly internal stability, only when its own management goes up, and first digests the population brought about by this continued expansion, can it quickly twist the internal forces into a rope and unify the external situation, in that case, the external danger, Zhang Quan thinks that relying on the unlimited supply of materials from the earth world, it will be solved logically.

And what kind of method should be used to solve this management problem in the face of hundreds of orcs of primitive tribes of nomadic peoples?

With this problem, Zhang Quan returned to Earth again, this time he had to find a way to solve the problem of mining, although his small iron ore is a high-grade open-pit iron ore, mining is extremely simple, and the workers he has are all infinitely powerful, hard-working, much better than the best mine workers on the earth. But that doesn't mean he doesn't need to make mining more efficient.

The so-called mining technology of the backward civilization of the orcs is too simple and crude, and it is directly gnawed by manpower. This is really how Zhang Quan, a modern person with a high civilization, can accept it, not to mention anything else, even if there is no possibility of large-scale modern machinery, the simplest metal tools should always be there! This question even had to be reminded to him by the Minotaur Garon, which really made Zhang Quan himself very suspicious of his own ability!

Therefore, Zhang Quan learned from the pain, and if there is no change, he will be encouraged, although he agreed to the so-called proposal of building an iron-making shop by Garon, but in fact he did not take the metal smelting and machining technology of this primitive man into account at all. If you look at the overall level of productivity in the wasteland, you can see that the "blacksmith master" bull-headed people who the orcs themselves respect are probably not very good at technology, otherwise how could they make the productivity of the wasteland fall so backward?

It should be known that in the long history of human primitive civilization, metal smelting and processing technology has always been one of the important indicators of social productivity!

I'm afraid the only solution is to find a solution from the earth, and as for those big and small problems, there is always a way to solve them.

2o15, Earth.

In a small private machine processing factory in Mianxian County, Zhang Quan watched the masters here work together.

"How's it going, master! Do you think this job is easy to do? ”

Kindness? His words obviously made the workers in these factories feel a certain insult, and they raised their heads one by one and looked at him with very unhappy eyes.

"What's so good about this, isn't it just the things we make on weekdays, making them bigger? Isn't this a pickaxe, a shovel, an axe、...... Do you really have bad eyes? ”

"Yes, yes, yes, yes!" Zhang Quan smiled, "It's just those things, but the size is enlarged." ”

"Yes! Isn't it just these things, what's not easy to do, you said those delicate jobs, our factory is not fully equipped, maybe it can't be processed, but these things - all stupid, big and coarse, what is not easy to do. The masters obviously felt that their craftsmanship had been insulted by Zhang Quan, and they replied very politely one by one.

"Good, good, good if it can be processed." Zhang Quan was only polite, "Then, when can you get this batch of things for me!" ”

Master Wang in the factory thought for a while, "Let's go in a few days, I'll finish it for you in a few days, isn't it just a few broken things, what is there to put in place." ”

The other workers also looked at him one by one, and they all looked at this local tyrant with contempt.

Zhang Quan looked at these workers in the broken factories in the countryside, all of them were not doing well, their wages were not good, and their temper was quite big! If it weren't for convenience, I really didn't want to deal with these people. No wonder, the processing plant's business has always been half-dead.

The factory that Zhang Quan is looking for, near Zhangcun Village, is located in the westernmost part of the suburbs of Chengguan Town, Mianxian County, and is specially made for farmers in the countryside to make all kinds of small hardware and farm tools. In the past, it was also prosperous. But now, seeing that the market economy reform of this dynasty is deepening more and more, market competition is really ubiquitous, and the salesmen of those large processing plants are now almost pervasive, and soon with excellent technology and low cost, these small processing factories in the countryside that rely on local protectionism to eat will be beaten down, and naturally the business will decline.

Zhang Quan came here purely for convenience, and the things he wanted were not difficult to process, but they all needed to be customized.

These are naturally the various mining tools needed by the orcs in his base, iron pickaxes, shovels, iron rakes, axes...... These things are all huge in size, far exceeding the standards originally used by human beings on Earth. Those iron pickaxes, just pickaxes, weigh more than ten kilograms, and no matter how strong a human being is, it is impossible to wield them. In human society, that doesn't work at all

This kind of thing is naturally a little troublesome to find someone to process it, not to mention anything else, just the feeling that someone else looks at you with that kind of fool-like expression is also very unpleasant.

Zhang Quan was too lazy to find someone to explain, so he simply looked for this small processing factory in the countryside, anyway, this kind of thing, the processing technology requirements are very low, the small processing factory is completely processed, there is no need to worry about the quality, and there is an additional convenience, that is, it is very close to Zhang Quan's warehouse, and it is very convenient to return to transport goods.

The processing cost of this batch of tools is also very cheap, basically the price of steel, and Zhang Quan, who is shy in his pocket, can also afford it.

By the way, Zhang Quan also brought back a batch of more than 20 tons of ore and drove it to Maling Iron and Steel Factory, earning back the first pot of gold from another world.

This time Maling Iron and Steel Plant also brought him a good news, after a few days of testing in the real yàn room of the steel plant, a new smelting process has been finalized from the iron ore brought by Zhang Quan, and a new steel grade has been obtained, although the parameters of this steel are not very good, compared with most of the steel grades for building materials on the market, the performance is not much better, but it is worth reminding that this steel is used because of the use of high-grade new ore from the Gaia world, the smelting process is extremely simple, Therefore, its cost is much lower than the cost of any kind of steel on the market, and the ex-factory price is incomparable, which is enough to occupy a great price advantage in the product competition with other manufacturers in the market, and also has a high profit.

This is just the product obtained by the real yàn room in just a few days with the old process, which already has a high market value, not to mention that in the future, after there are more real yàn, the high-grade steel that may be obtained? It can be said that this first product with low added value alone, the new ore brought by Zhang Quan is already very competitive, fully demonstrating its potential in the future.

This news undoubtedly made the whole Maling Iron and Steel Plant very excited, and Zhang Quan was also very happy.

After discussing with Director Li, Zhang Quan decided to renovate the production line in the factory on the spot, use new ore, and directly enter the market. The money in hand is the real money, and from this point of view, Zhang Quan and Lao Li are not far-sighted masters. At least after the restructuring of Maling Iron and Steel Plant, the considerable benefits that the two companies can obtain immediately are the most important.

Two days later, with the grain and processed tools, Zhang Quan returned to the Gaia world again.
