Now cement technology has reached a relatively mature standard, and even has the prototype of an automated assembly line.

Masons have already developed hybrid conveyor belts.

Linen cloth, oiled paper and bark are made into a basic conveyor belt, which is powered by waterwheels and livestock, and the ground raw materials are directly fed through the conveyor belt to the rotating mixing tank, and then sent to the firing process through the conveyor belt.

Now the last rolling firing forge is missing, and now the internal forge needs to withstand the high-temperature calcination process, and it is being studied in conjunction with the wrought iron workshop.

For example, the new blast furnace of the ironmaking workshop was designed by the masons together, and there were twenty or thirty design drawings alone.

I really built twenty or thirty experimental blast furnaces in one go to test the effect.

The construction of the blast furnace is not a simple soil, but a variety of mixtures, what charcoal powder, quartz sand and the like, a variety of materials are stacked, good fire resistance, not easy to accidents, and even now they have begun to play the idea of cement, to see if they can make high-temperature resistant cement.

In addition to steelmaking, the ironmaking workshop has also begun to mold parts, such as gears, bearings, and water turbines.

In his previous life, Chen Ze once went to a hydroelectric power station with the company to express his condolences, and the leaders of the hydropower station took everyone to see various models of hydro turbines, turbines, etc.

I'm still a little impressed.

Although it is used to generate electricity, it is to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy.

Electric Chen Ze definitely can't do it, you don't have to think about this thing, you don't know how to do it?

All you need is mechanical energy.

Chen Ze still remembers the general appearance, there is no need to look for waterfalls or the like, as long as there is water after there is cement and steel, make a turbine entrance, try to use the water turbine to rotate, the utilization rate of water energy is very high, and the advantage is much greater than that of traditional waterwheels.

It's thriving.

After Xu Hai and Master Lai left, Chen Ze was in an indescribably good mood.

Iron-making workshops and cement workshops have successively produced results, and according to the current process, it may not take long to build up the infrastructure quickly.

Improve transportation and water conservancy!

As long as the transportation is convenient, then the economy of the entire Qingzhou Prefecture can be moved.

But...... The premise is that the bandits must be cleared, otherwise the road will not be safe.

At this moment, an invitation was delivered to the hotel.

Chen Ze felt a little incredible when he received the invitation: "Who sent the invitation?" ”

"Young Master Hui, it's the Marquis of Zhongyong."

Chen Ze couldn't help but be stunned, and when he opened it, he saw that it was indeed an invitation from the Marquis of Zhongyong.

Invite Chen Ze to Wuquan Township for a gathering.

Loyal and brave Hou Weichen, Chen Ze has not met yet.

I only know that the Marquis of Zhongyong is a person who likes to be kind and charitable with Wang Yuanwai and Lin Yuanwai, and his reputation is excellent.

Of course, although they are both Hou Ye, the gold content of Zhongyong Hou and Guan Ping Hou Xue Ren is different.

Xue Ren's water is very large, at the end of the Sui Dynasty, selling officials and lords was too rampant, the marquis was not worth anything at all, and the marquis in Beizhou was basically the marquis all over the place, but he had no real power and no fief privileges.

The Marquis of Zhongyong is different, a real hereditary lord, who has made war exploits and has his own fiefdom.

That's the Hou Ye of the Eight Classics, and Song Zhizhang has to be respectful when he sees it.

Wuquan Township is the territory of the Marquis of Zhongyong.

Who is the real marquis, isn't it clear at a glance?

"Why did this loyal and brave marquis send me an invitation?" Chen Ze couldn't help but look puzzled.

Li Yuankang on the side hurriedly said: "Young master, will you come for Qingzhou University Hall?" The reputation of the Marquis of Zhongyong has always been good, and he thinks that he is also concerned about the people, maybe he is helping to make a contribution!? ”

Chen Ze blinked: "It's not impossible!" Marquis Zhongyong is a hereditary lord, to him is the third generation, there must be a lot of family property, it just so happens that I am now financially tight, if he is willing to support it, it will be great! ”

Thinking of this, Chen Ze immediately asked people to prepare the car.

I just came back from Dataa Township, and my butt was not hot yet, so I immediately rushed to Wuquan Township.

However, Chen Ze didn't expect that they were all from the countryside of Qingzhou, but the difference was really not ordinary.

The road in Wuquan Township is quite flat, and the road to this is not too bumpy.

Moreover, it can be clearly felt that the population density of Wuquan Township is much higher than that of Data Township.

I had always heard Qin Boyang say that the scale of townships in Wuquan Township was about to catch up with a county seat, and there were at least more than 2,000 people.

Because many people who have suffered from disasters will run to Wuquan Township, Zhongyong Marquis is also willing to take them in and help them tide over the difficulties, and those who are willing to stay and settle will continue to stay, and after a long time, more and more people will gather.

Under normal circumstances, there are only three or four thousand in a county, and five or six thousand at most.

Qingzhou City is the commercial center of gravity in the south, a rare large plain in the mountainous area, connected to the Luzhou waterway on the top, and the hub road into the south, to enter the eight states in the south can only go from Qingzhou, it is impossible to go over the mountains and mountains in the past, plus after the continuous expansion of the city, the businessmen who come and go continue to settle in Qingzhou, so there is such an exaggerated population size of supermodels.

There were already many villages on the mountainside, and after traveling twelve or thirteen miles, you could see a relatively flat area in the distance, and the continuous buildings almost filled the entire area, and even extended to the hillside, and what caught your eye was a large number of terraced rice fields.

Of course, it is not only Wuquan Township that has terraced fields, such as Lanxi County, Danshui County and other areas are terraced fields.

Seeing that he was about to arrive at the Mansion of the Marquis of Zhongyong, suddenly a voice came from the side of the road: "Wait, wait!" It's over, it's over! ”

The convoy stopped for a while, Chen Ze subconsciously opened the curtain of the car and took a look, and found that an old man dressed as a farmer in his fifties led the rest of the other people dressed as farmers to catch up.

Chen Ze looked at the old man and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"But the prince of Zhennan?"

Chen Ze glanced at the other party and said in surprise: "You...... Are you ...... Uncle Weber? ”

"Yes, yes." The farmer who was the leader was dressed as the Marquis of Zhongyong, and said with a smile: "Xiao Shizi, I was waiting for you in front, but I didn't stop you!" ”

Seeing this, Chen Ze hurriedly got out of the car and saluted the Marquis of Zhongyong.

"Little nephew Chen Houzhao has seen Uncle Wei."

Marquis Zhongyong is related to the Zhennan Palace, and Chen Wuping has to shout big brother when he sees Wei Chen.

I heard Li Yuankang say that when everyone in the palace raised things, Marquis Zhongyong seemed to have given support.

It seems that Chen Wuping, Cao Sheng and others have been hiding in Wuquan Township for a while, but the specific situation is not clear.

Chen Ze shouted Uncle was fine, but he didn't expect this loyal and brave marquis to be so down-to-earth, carrying a hoe as if he was working in the field......
