When the first batch of Ming immigrants planned by Liu Bei arrived in Yangang, the staff in the quarantine area had one more job.

That is, to count the seafaring talents of the appropriate age, as long as they are in good shape and of appropriate age, they need to be registered.

They are all classified as technical talents, especially those who have been begging for a long time, and those who understand wind and water conditions, and they are even more special-level talents.

As the shipyard makes dumplings faster and faster, no matter how many locally trained students there are, it is inevitable to recruit these Ming descendants who are begging for the sea.

As for Li Haigou's suggestion, Yan Zheng also felt that this idea could be tried.

He specially issued a special order to let people build a batch of standard resettlement houses and some standard fields.

When the Tanhu "visiting group" comes here, let them see the importance that Huaxia attaches to them.

This incident also made Yan Zheng understand that their influence and popularity in Daming are far from enough, and they have not even heard of it.

It is still very difficult for the Ming people to hear Dongqin Island and think of the word heaven when they hear Huaxia Kingdom.

If this is really done, then there will inevitably be many Ming people who are willing to take the initiative to come to Dongqin.

Thinking of this, Yan Zheng immediately ordered that in the future, in addition to the manufacturer, four words should be added to the iron pot, thresher, and iron farm tools, that is, "Made in Dongqin"!

The product is also a label to the outside world! As long as there are more commodities in Eastern Qin and more people in the Ming Dynasty, there will naturally be a good view of the land in Eastern Qin.

"Your Majesty, this time the Song family wants to open the mouth of five hundred threshers, and our inventory is one thousand two hundred and ninety-one!"

"The last batch of ships of the Song family didn't come five days ago, why did another batch of ships come in such a short period of time?"

"I don't know, the Song family only said, please help you, this batch of goods is from someone in Jiangxi."

Sitting in the red room, Yan Zheng frowned and looked at the report submitted by Ah Ku, Zhang He opened his mouth to three hundred units, and the Song family opened his mouth to five hundred.

He didn't think that in the Ming Dynasty, there would be such a sought after phenomenon.

"It seems that I don't need to plan more, with the current scene, ask too much, and they will accept it!" Yan Zheng said.

Ah Ku nodded: "It's just the workers of the machinery factory and the steel factory, these people are all working in three shifts, and they have naturalized about two hundred prisoners of war according to their orders." There is also a mold factory, which is also struggling to produce molds. ”

"How many prisoners of war are there?"

"It's not much, only more than 4,000 people, since last year, the number of prisoners of war sent by other tribes has begun to decrease, it may be that their sweeps have been farther and farther, and there are fewer and fewer captures."

Yan Zheng sighed and said: "There is no way, let them naturalize another three hundred prisoners of war, and from next time, the threshing machine will be exchanged for population!"

"Can you only use the population?"

Yan Zheng snorted and said: "One by one, if they don't want to buy it, they can make it themselves, and if they exchange it for people, there is no limit!"

"If there is no limit, our daily output is about 100 units, and after three shifts, it will be almost more than 200 units." Ah Ku reminded.

"It's okay! There is no limit, we can also owe it first! Yan Zheng smiled and said.

"You tell these people who come to ask for the threshing machine, just let them stock up as many people as possible, as long as they are delivered, we will make a note of them, and they will be indispensable when the time comes." For the largest number of people transported, we will give priority to the quota. ”

Ah Ku was stunned for a moment: "But our production capacity is still only so little!" Even if the manpower is expanded, it will take half a month to go to the next level, and even if it goes up a level, it may only be about 300 units per day, which is still a condition of ensuring the supply of pig iron and energy! ”

Yan Zheng said a little helplessly: "You listen to me first, and you can find a few students to do this together."

"Remember, every time they send as many people as you send, you give them as many threshing tickets as you want, and tell them that they can get a threshing machine with those tickets! There is also a table at the port that indicates the threshing ticket accumulated by each person, as well as the threshing machine that was exchanged. Tell them that the person who has accumulated the most can get 50 percent of the quota every time! ”

"And the tickets that were not used this time, you can continue to accumulate them next time, anyway, their tickets, we will definitely guarantee to cash in, as for the time, we don't need to say exactly! Anyway, what they are fighting for is a share of each time. ”

Ah Ku lowered his head and pondered.

Yan Zheng continued: "In the future, if you have enough three families, you will sell them, and you will also be allowed to trade the threshing machine certificate privately!"

"Private deals?" Ah Ku's thoughts were interrupted.

"That's right! We don't care if they use silver or anything, anyway, after they trade, they will come to you and change the points table! ”

Ah Ku pondered for a while and asked, "Can this really work?"

"It works! Sometimes you don't have to have a product, but if there are more people, it may be more fun! Yan Zheng said unfathomably.

Ah Ku nodded, although he didn't understand, but the reason was still understood.

In his opinion, this move is actually to gather more people, as long as these people need threshers, they must exchange the population for qualifications.

Soon, the five ministers of the cabinet drafted a proposal, and after stamping, it was handed over to Yan Zheng for signature and issuance.

This time, the only ones who have to cooperate are the cadres in the quarantine area.

Five days later, the first converter in Meaux was built.

With four iron furnaces and a blast wheel, this converter has achieved good results in blowing steel for the first time.

Due to the design of the regenerator and exhaust gas circulation, the energy consumption of this converter is reduced by almost one-third.

Overall, the time for steelmaking has also been halved, and the efficiency is almost several times higher than that of crucible steelmaking.

The only disadvantage is that when blowing air, it is not possible to achieve absolute uniform speed, and the control of blowing time and carbon content cannot be perfected.

And the reason for all this is the lack of goggles!

The most critical step of the converter is to observe the color of the flame tongue, when the flame tongue changes from white to yellow, it means that the furnace temperature is decreasing.

And through the sparks, you can also see the timing of the blowing. There is still a big difference between the early stage and the late stage.

And you can also understand the carbon content through the carbon spending.

These Yan Zheng all made a booklet and asked these workers to compare carefully, but whoever stared at it for a quarter of an hour had red, swollen and stinging eyes.

When Tiemu Needle reacted to this question, Yan Zheng was so frightened that he hurriedly asked these workers to stop first.

He didn't want to blow up a few days later, and Huaxia Kingdom would have a group of blind people.

What to do? Make the tinted glass first?

Yan Zheng chose the local method, asking them to make a strip of black cloth and then make a gap, so as to reduce the effect of strong light on the eyes.

Sure enough, when the black cloth blindfolded, the situation was much better, and the workers adopted the method of crop rotation, and after several tests, the blowing time of high-carbon steel and medium-carbon steel was finally determined.

The converter is so awesome, as long as you are proficient, you can immediately make three different properties of steel in batches!

However, the incident of the goggles reminded him to move the glass industry in the five-year plan forward.
