In order to fill the shortage of agricultural tools as soon as possible, Wang Xuan asked the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to negotiate with Chiyan, either to buy or barter in exchange for the much-needed iron ore. Everyone has no objection to this, and in the face of the general trend of auspicious development, all grievances have been temporarily put aside.

After receiving the order, Li Ming of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs went to Chiyan Ling with the convoy carrying coal, and Chiyan's foreign minister personally received him, and he did not be rude or neglectful because Jixiang was the defeated party.

The negotiations went very smoothly, the auspicious lack of iron and red flame lack of coal, everyone hit it off, and the two sides agreed on the coal-iron exchange ratio of three to two after several consultations, and it began to be implemented in February.

The farm is located at the foot of the West Mountain, where wild beasts are often infested, and out of consideration for the safety of the people, Wang Xuan allocated an army of 500 people to the western foot of the farm.

This can not only protect the safety of the people, but also hunt and replenish meat by the way, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone. The wild animals can be eaten or sold, and the eggs of chickens and ducks are handed over to the farms for incubation.

The farm makes simple chicken pens, duck pens and wild boar pens, and hires people with breeding experience to provide on-site guidance, which is when the role of the census is reflected.

In addition, Wang Xuan allocated 500 people to build a stronghold at the foot of Dongshan Mountain, which led to Chiyan, to strengthen training in jungle and mountain warfare, and rely on natural hazards and fortifications to prevent possible invasion of Chiyan in the future.

After this situation, Wang Xuan's army only had more than 1,000 people left, but he still tried his best to disagree with the public, and allocated another 500 people to Wang Yu's deputy Cai Gang to form a public security patrol team, which was fully responsible for public security in Hexi, and had the power of inspection and arrest.

The remaining 500 people, in addition to the 200 lords' internal guards, 300 were stationed in Jixiang City to maintain law and order in the city.

The limited area of the Chengnan farm could not accommodate more than 20,000 people who had signed up, so the Propaganda Department announced that a second collective farm would be established the year after next.

As for the problem of children's education that everyone is concerned about, the Ministry of Education and the Propaganda Department have also given a solution, each gathering point will establish at least one school, although it is not free admission but the tuition fee is very low, one silver coin per year is only affordable for each family, and the school also provides a free lunch, one meat and two vegetables, so that the people can rest assured.

A collective farm has almost wiped out Wang Xuan's family funds, and the entire auspicious collar is revolving around the farm. Fortunately, the money was paid in batches, leaving a buffer space, Wang Xuan put the treasure in the porcelain factory, if he couldn't produce something, he could only borrow money from the private sector.

At the end of January of the 54th year of the Xia Yuan calendar, a full month later than the estimated time, the first batch of porcelain was produced.

After receiving the news, Wang Xuan put down everything at hand and hurried to the porcelain factory.

The workers of the porcelain factory are gathered on the main road between the north and south, and a table of eight immortals in the middle is full of porcelain products, with dozens of pieces in total, snow-white as face, so dazzling!

After everyone saw Wang Xuan's arrival, they all got out of the way, and a pair of eyes had nowhere to put at this time, staring at Wang Xuan for a while and staring at the desktop for a while, as if they were uneasy to abandon either side.

Wang Xuan walked quickly to the table, picked up a piece and looked at it carefully, he wanted to analyze whether the color was uniform, whether the surface was smooth, whether the color was pure, and most importantly, whether there were cracks.

In his hand was a small vase, white as jade, bright as a mirror, thin as paper, and sound like a chime. It is slender, elegant, and rounded, with a mesmerizing halo in the morning light.

The beautiful porcelain on the table makes people dazzled, there are crystal clear teacups, small and exquisite wine glasses, and all kinds of handicrafts with unique shapes, each of which is so exquisite that people can't help but admire.

In order to test the process, Wang Xuan deliberately dropped a teacup to see the color of the crack, and he was very satisfied.

At this time, he had time to look around, and saw that everyone had taken the table as the center, and surrounded this place like a rice dumpling with three layers inside and three layers outside, his face was red, his breathing was heavy, and his eyes were looking at him hopefully. Wang Xuan knew what they were waiting for, so he stretched out his right hand and clenched his fingers into a fist and smashed into the sky.

Then the whole porcelain factory fell into a carnival, and dozens of days and nights of sleepless labor finally paid off, and many people laughed and laughed and cried, and cried and laughed again. The scene of a group of men jumping and jumping, crying and laughing has been deeply imprinted in Wang Xuan's mind at this moment, which makes him deeply understand that the mascot is not as easy as he seems, everyone is moving forward with a load, just for the quiet of that line of time!

Wang Xuan quietly felt everyone's joy, once they were suppressed for a long time, it was always uncontrollable once they were released, they sang and danced uncontrollably, and even yelled hysterically.

It is not good to defeat everyone's interest, and I am afraid that they will not be able to let go of their hands and feet if they have scruples, Wang Xuan packed the experimental samples and returned to Jixiang City, and even the broken pieces were not left in the factory, and before leaving, he specially mentioned the name of the factory "Yongsheng Porcelain Factory".

On the way back, someone came to report that the three major merchants in the territory had received the news, and after talking with the prime minister for a long time in the government council, the minister of state sent a sergeant to report to Wang Xuan.

This means that when Wang Xuan and his entourage just arrived at the porcelain factory, the merchants had already received the news and rushed to the Government Affairs Yuan, and the means were good!

Council of Ministers, Conference Room.

When Wang Xuan came to the meeting room of the Government Council, it was already crowded with the Secretary of State, ministers, and the three major merchants.

Since it was not a closed-door meeting, the door of the conference room was also full of employees who came to inquire about the news, after all, the 10% profit of the porcelain factory was still very attractive.

Wang Xuan directly opened the package, and the porcelain products were placed on the conference table one by one, the movements were very light and gentle, and even the teacup that was broken into four petals was also put on it.

Everyone's eyes were eager, staring at the smooth, snow-white porcelain like jade, and the gradually heavy breathing sound truly reflected everyone's mood at this time.

"This is the first batch of good products in the trial production of the porcelain factory, I have been inspected and basically qualified, and can be mass-produced according to the established plan, you can take a closer look at the porcelain produced by our auspicious porcelain factory. ”

As soon as the words fell, the ministers of state had already held two pieces of porcelain in their hands, and even the fragments of the teacup that were broken into four pieces were grabbed by a merchant in his hand and kept changing angles to observe, and the cut palms did not seem to feel pain, and from time to time they muttered a few incomplete words to themselves.

The "buzz" of the staff who crowded at the door to inquire for news all dispersed, and a moment later, thunderous cheers rang out in the courtyard.

When everyone was looking at the porcelain, the chief guard had already handed over the note with the information of the three merchants, and Wang Xuan took the time to scan the note with more than 100 words.

Yao Zijun, male, 40 years old, his father was a general under Wang Xuan's grandfather, who went south to open up the wasteland in the second year of the epidemic, relying on Wang's shadow and smart mind, engaged in handicrafts and household products to make a fortune, with a net worth of about 5,000 gold coins.

Gu Ming, male, thirty-seven years old, also started after arriving in auspiciousness, mainly dealing in ironware, with a net worth of about 6,000 gold coins.

Du Fang, a somewhat feminine name, male, forty-two years old, mainly engaged in silk and cloth, with a net worth of nearly 10,000.

Looking at the three largest merchants in the collar, Wang Xuan also secretly made an idea, if Jixiang wants to develop, it needs more such private enterprises to participate, and someone takes a good lead to make an example to throw bricks and lead jade to prosper the market, and Jixiang's development needs such a leader.

In Wang Xuan's plan, the profiteering industry is for the purpose of collecting money for auspicious construction, and it is not suitable for opening up to the outside world, while some industries can be invested and supported, and Wang Xuan does not mind providing them with assistance to make them develop and grow.

Although the current population and technological level of Jixiang are not enough for industrial development, Wang Xuan believes that things are man-made, there will always be a way to increase the population, and science and technology will eventually progress.

After everyone played with the porcelain for a while, the restless heart gradually calmed down, and the merchants looked at Zhao Sheng eagerly, hoping that he could say a few words for the merchants present at this time, this porcelain trade really tugged at everyone's heartstrings.

Zhao Sheng ignored the frequent hints from the merchants, got up and said to Wang Xuan: "It's all our incompetence, which makes the Lord work hard, but I still have a lot of strength, but the Lord has orders, and I dare not obey!"

The words were categorical and powerful, and the rest of the people, even the merchants, also stood up to respond.

Wang Xuan's performance since he succeeded to the throne can be described as amazing, although there is such a change for some reason, but after all, it is a good direction, rather than struggling to explore unknown reasons, it is better to follow the trend and be a firm follower.
