After explaining some of his thoughts on the new army to the Empress Dorothy, Xia Lin successfully obtained the consent of Her Royal Highness.

However, the Grand Duke of the North had not yet formally proposed to Sassen XVII to establish a new army, so Xia Lin only needed to make some preliminary preparations.

For example, the Type 1391 Type 2 rifle was continued to be improved, a bayonet was added to it, and a better yellow bullet was developed to improve its performance stability. Master Faun and others developed a simple black powder grenade.

In addition, Xia Lin also needs to select some people from the security team in the industrial park who have attended literacy classes and send them to the workers' night school to study, as well as write a basic manual for the use of the Type 1391 Type 2 rifle, a manual for the use of 80 caliber breech guns, and an infantry drill manual.

Of course, if you want to count on Xia Lin, who is basically a semi-military blind, how many levels you don't need, you can only say that these Xia Lin can barely use things compiled by referring to the information provided by those military fans on the forums in his previous life, and the rest can only wait until the problem is found in practical application and then find a way to solve it.

After completing these preliminary affairs, Xia Lin began to arrange for the managers of the three factories that were later established, namely the caustic soda factory, the soap factory, and the distillery, as well as the apprentices of the machine shop to learn the use of machine tools from the dwarven masters.

This time, instead of rudely transferring personnel from the management system of the existing factories to fill the new factories, Xia Lin adopted a new method, that is, asking the directors of several factories to recommend them, and then selecting the right candidates based on their performance recorded in the employee files.

However, there is a relationship in this, for example, the managers of caustic soda plants are selected from soda ash plants, cement factories and brick factories, which are more involved in furnace calcination, so that they are familiar with similar production processes and will be easier to get started.

The soap mills and distilleries are selected from the sugar and salt mills.

The source of personnel in the machining factory is that Xia Lin asked Wyatt to pass the screening of employee files, from which he found twenty-five employees who had experience as craftsmen, had strong hands-on ability, and had certain qualifications, and had relatively clean net worth, as apprentices of dwarf masters to learn to operate machine tools.

After completing the construction of the management system, Xia Lin began the second large-scale recruitment of Xinglan Industrial Park, which is expected to recruit 600 people and a variety of positions.

It is no longer just for the surrounding areas of the industrial park as before, but has expanded the scope of recruitment to the entire imperial capital.

Even Xia Lin made this recruitment advertisement appear in the "Imperial Capital Xunbao" for the first time, so that the newspaper's reporters carried out a series of reports, such as what the princess favors, the minister attaches importance to and other advertising words shamelessly added.

The purpose is to recruit a group of knowledgeable employees through the influence of the newspaper. After all, with the foundation of Xinglan Primary School, it is still a little insufficient to quickly cultivate enough talents.

Hearing the news of the comprehensive recruitment of workers in the Xinglan Industrial Park, the slums immediately became lively, and people from all over the neighborhood rushed to the Yuya District to get a job opportunity in the industrial park.

This has made the Yuya neighborhood more and more prosperous, but the complex flow of people has also made the security around the industrial park much worse.

Xia Lin asked the remaining 90-member security team in the industrial park to strengthen patrols, and adopted the tough method of dealing with vicious incidents together and sending one of the offenders to the city guards when they were caught, so as to ensure that the production order of his industrial park was not affected too much.

After completing the recruitment plan, after a period of training, the new factories in the industrial park finally started to work one after another.

Located in the northern part of the industrial park, just across the machine shop from the machine tool factory, the distillery has suddenly become a place where the dwarven masters linger, and the distillation process of the distillery has a quarter of the smell of the wine.

The rich aroma of the wine made the dwarven masters even lose the quality of the ale in their glasses, and Master Faun, who occasionally returned to the Starblue Industrial Park from the R&D center, quickly applied to Xia Lin for a batch of rum rations.

Xia Lin, who understands the drunken nature of dwarves, naturally will not be satisfied with these baby bumps, and will give them with a wave of his hand

The distillery instructed that twenty bottles of rum were to be supplied to the dwarven masters every day, and if anything more, Charlin would have to worry that they would make a mistake in drinking.

On the other hand, as the soda ash hoarded in the warehouse became caustic soda in the caustic soda factory, and then transported to the soap factory to make soap with cheap cottonseed oil and soybean oil, adding various flavoring agents, it became a fragrant soap and began to supply it through the channels of various chambers of commerce of the alliance.

Xia Lin also took this opportunity to establish the façade of the New Leaf Chamber of Commerce in various places in the imperial capital, so that Wyatt officially recruited a group of employees in charge of the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce to build the skeleton of the New Leaf Chamber of Commerce, and the first thing they had to do was to sort out the employment relationship between the employees of the industrial park and the New Leaf Chamber of Commerce.

A piece of soap costs 50 copper pes, and a piece of soap costs 1 silver mar and 20 copper pes, which can easily wash off oil stains, and this product has attracted countless people in Hurgana to buy it as soon as it is launched.

Compared with the rattan bark powder of soap vine, the advantages of soap and soap are too great, and the soap and soap produced by using cottonseed oil discarded by various spinning mills will cost less than 8 copper pess per piece, which can be described as a huge profit.

Even if soybean oil on the market is used as raw material, the profit margin of soap is close to 10 copper bis, not to mention soap.

After the steel produced by the steel mills completed the equipment manufacturing of these factories and secured the source of agricultural tools and tools for the agricultural cooperatives, about 6,000 heavy steel outputs began to sit idle every day.

Xia Lin naturally couldn't let these precious steel rust in the warehouse, and at the same time he started the production of bare round steel bars, steel wires, and steel cables.

On the other hand, he decided to start building a wood-to-steel railway in the industrial park and from the industrial park to the employee community, and developed a flatbed wagon for the use of rails.

The construction of this kind of wood-clad steel railway is very simple, first of all, it is to level the foundation, and then spread a layer of slag produced by the steelmaking plant on the foundation, use the roller to compact and level, then sprinkle the gravel and then carry out a compaction leveling, and then you can lay the steel-clad wooden rail on this solid and not easy to accumulate water.

It's just that these links consume a lot of manpower and materials, so Xia Lin specially set up the First Railway Company in the Imperial Capital, and selected Captain Maika as the company manager from the First Construction Company, and asked him to select ten backbones in the construction company to build the skeleton of the railway company.

Several of these backbones have participated in the construction of the first batch of industrial park factories and have mastered a lot of surveying and mapping knowledge, which is exactly what is needed for railway construction.

As for the distressed Sharp, Xia Lin could only comfort him and wait for the first batch of primary school students in Xinglan Primary School to graduate, and they would have high-quality talents to replenish them.

There is no way, the industrial park is developing too fast, a whole lot of plans are completely rolled out, and there is a shortage of people everywhere.

Xia Lin could only tear down the east wall and make up the west wall, let the employees study while working, and then let them obtain systematic knowledge through night school, and complete the transformation from ordinary workers to technicians.

In Xialin's plan, the Baotou steel wooden tracks of the industrial park will be built in the form of a double-track railway, with a total length of 8.3 kilometers on the two tracks, consisting of a main line from the wharf through the employee communities of the factories and the final station, and a branch line from the main line to the interior of the warehouses of each factory.

It is expected that with the recruitment of 200 temporary road construction workers, it will take 43 days to complete the main line, and another 8 days to complete the full construction.

As for the idea of more flexible and convenient manpower transportation, it is impossible to realize it for the time being, because without reliable power, there will be no punch, and without a punch, there will be no possibility of making chains.
