"Get up, you guys will build bridges and hydropower stations for Xingjing in the future, which will be the best reward for me." As he spoke, he stepped forward and helped Xu Qiang and Xue Yi up.

Everyone got up one after another, and their eyes were full of reverence when they looked at Zhou Xian.

"Okay, Xu Qiang, you lead the construction of the hydropower station now, the sooner it is built, the sooner we will be able to use electricity." Zhou Xian patted Xu Qiang's shoulder and said.

"The disciple must work overtime to build the hydropower station as soon as possible." Xu Qiang said respectfully.

After Zhou Xian encouraged Xu Qiang and the others a few more words, he took Xue Yi and others to continue to look for the location of the thermal power station.

In the end, Zhou Xian chose to build the thermal power station in the northernmost part of Xingjing, which is relatively close to the coal plant and far away from the residential area of Xingjing, which will not affect the lives of the people of Xingjing.

After the address was chosen, Zhou Xian informed Li San to bring 200 workers to build the house.

The principle of thermal power generation is to convert thermal energy into electrical energy through the power unit.

Thermal power generation generally uses the heat energy generated when combustibles are burned to heat water, so that the water becomes high-temperature and high-pressure water vapor, and then the water vapor pushes the generator to generate electricity.

The principle is similar to that of a steam engine, which can be said to be a large steam engine that works non-stop to drive the generator to generate electricity.

After Zhou Xian taught the two hundred workers about building a thermal power station, he let the workers get to work.

After Zhou Xian returned to the mansion, he asked Xu Shouyi to announce the establishment of the Xingjing Electric Power Bureau in the newspaper, Xue Yi served as the director, and recruited 5,000 power workers, giving priority to recruiting young and educated, three taels of silver per month, and the registration location: Xingjing Square.

The next day, there was a crowd of people in Xingjing Square, all of whom came to apply for power workers.

It took only half a day to recruit 5,000 electrical workers.

Zhou Xian appointed Xue Yi as the director of the Xingjing Electric Power Bureau, responsible for installing the wires and managing all matters of the Electric Power Bureau.

When Xue Yi heard that he had become the director of the Xingjing Electric Power Bureau, he was so excited that he didn't sleep all night.

Early the next morning, Xue Yi was invited by Zhang Dabiao to Zhou Xian's mansion.

As soon as he arrived at the main hall of the mansion, he saw Zhou Xian sitting there drinking tea, Xue Yi hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down, "Thank you to the principal for taking such an important position." ”

Zhou Xian stepped forward to help Xue Yi up, "No need to be polite, let you serve as the director of the Electric Power Bureau because now there is no one in Xingjing who understands electricity better than you, and I don't let you do it." ”

Xue Yi stood up with Zhou Xian's support, and when he wanted to say something, "Come and sit down, drink tea, you haven't had breakfast yet, let's eat together later." Zhou Xian spoke first.

"Thank you, Headmaster!" Xue Yi sat down excitedly.

After Xue Yi sat down, Zhou Xian said: "Xue Yi, now that the Power Bureau has just been established, your task is very heavy, and I will have to work hard for you in the future." ”

Xue Yi hurriedly stood up again, "The things explained by the principal must complete the task, Xue Yi is not afraid of hard work!" ”

"Well done! I'm optimistic about you, and in the future, the power of our Xingjing will be handed over to you! Zhou Xian patted Xue Yi on the shoulder.

"Please rest assured, Xue Yi will definitely be able to do a good job!"

"Well, since you are now a bureau chief, you can go to the Great Hall to take an oath and officially join our Star Club."

Hearing that he could join the Starry Sky Club, Xue Yi was excited, knowing that there were only a few dozen people in the entire Xingjing who were qualified to join the Starry Sky Club and become cadres.

It's a great honor to be able to join the Starry Sky Club in Xingjing.

"Principal Xie!"

Xue Yi's body trembled with excitement.

"The next thing you have to do is to arrange for workers to erect the power poles, pull the wires, and when the thermal power station is built, it can be electrified and make Xingjing a city that never sleeps!"

Zhou Xian arranged.

"The city that never sleeps?"

"It's like carbon arc lights, street lights are installed on the streets of Xingjing."

"I'm looking forward to this day!" Xue Yi's eyes glowed with gold.

Next, Zhou Xian passed on the knowledge of making telephone poles and insulators to Xue Yi.

After seeing that Xue Yi mastered it, he beckoned Xue Yi to dinner and chatted with him about family life.

Sending Xue Yi away, when Zhou Xian was chatting in the study, Xiaoqing suddenly ran in.

"President, Zhou Jiajun is back!"

"Haha, Ting'er let's go, let's go pick them up together."

Outside Xingjing City, Zhou Xian stood on a large platform, looking at Zhou Jiajun who was walking towards Xingjing in the distance.

Soon, Daniel Zhang and Xiang Shaoyun and other officers rode war horses and came to Zhou Xian first.

Everyone jumped off their horses and knelt on one knee, "President, we are fortunate not to be dishonored, capture Zuo Liangyu alive, and occupy Jiujiang Mansion." ”

"Okay, get up, you've worked hard, let's go to my mansion."

Zhou Xian smiled.

"Yes!"

Soon everyone followed Zhou Xian to the mansion.

After everyone sat down, Zhou Xian asked, "Is this time going well?" ”

"Generally well, just a little trouble at first."

Daniel Zhang said.

"Oh! What's the trouble? ”

Then Daniel Zhang told him about what happened after he arrived in Huangzhou Mansion.

"This Yu Jackie Chan is really hateful, if you do the right thing, you have to let others know that our Zhou Jiajun is not easy to mess with." Zhou Xian nodded in agreement.

"How's it going to be this time?" Zhou Xian continued.

"In this battle, 300,000 Zuo Liangyu soldiers were captured, and many generals and officials such as Ma Jinzhong, Jin Shenghuan, Yang Zhenghai, Yang Yuwen, Huang Shu, and Wang Yuncheng surrendered to our Zhou army."

"Okay, Daniel Zhang, well done, tomorrow invite these generals and officials to my mansion, and I will entertain them well."

Zheng was worried that he had no chance to brainwash the generals and officials of the Ming Dynasty, and Daniel Zhang brought them this time to really sleepy and someone sent a pillow.

"Well, this time we also seized 10 million taels of silver, 500,000 taels of gold, all kinds of gold, silver, jewelry, and antique calligraphy and paintings that Zuo Liangyu collected, and I brought them back to Xingjing." Daniel Zhang continued.

Zhou Xian was shocked when he heard this, this Zuo Liangyu was so rich, "Okay, okay, now our Xingjing Bank can have no worries." ”

Hearing that there were antique calligraphy and paintings, Zhou Xian suddenly remembered that Xingjing could build a museum to hold all kinds of antique calligraphy and paintings.

Now that museums have been built, another science and technology museum will be built to display the latest scientific and technological achievements.

Another planetarium will be built, some pictures of the eight planets of the solar system will be made in the museum, and a large telescope will be installed in the museum, which will allow people to directly see the surface of the moon, so that the minds of the people of Xingjing can be enlightened, so that the people's minds are no longer bound.

Also to build a library, the Ming Dynasty's only books are collected, Zhou Xian in later generations of the Ming Dynasty Yongle Ceremony is particularly interested, I don't know where this Yongle Dictionary is now, can you get it.

While Zhou Xian was imagining the future, Daniel Zhang asked, "President, what about these captives?" ”

Being shouted by Daniel Zhang, Zhou Xian came to his senses, "The captives used the method of mutual exposure to select a group of people who had not killed or insulted women, and let them join the Zhou family army. ”

"What about the rest?"

"Now that we are short of labor everywhere, we will separate them to join all kinds of miners and build roads."

Seeing that there was nothing to report, Zhou Xian asked everyone to go back to rest, after all, after so many days, everyone was tired.
