Traveling through history leaving a name

Chapter 30

Zhang Qingfeng did not expect this to happen in the end.

In his soul from the 21st century, the steel output of a country can be linked to its national power. The higher the steel output, the stronger the national power.

But here, the annual production of [-] tons of steel was reduced to the level of a backlog in the warehouse. Even if Cao Cao diverted some steel to build ordnance, there was still too much left.

"We have to find a way to consume this steel..."

Zhang Qingfeng thought about it for a few days and came up with some solutions.

In Yuyang City, the machinery factory Li Bai planned to build was almost completed, and many machines were transported from the Taihang Mountains to Yuyang by his people.

Zhang Qingfeng plans to go to Yuyang City to preside over the work of the machinery factory, and then develop industrialization.

In Zhang Qingfeng's view, nothing consumes more steel than industrial development.

Afterwards, Zhang Qingfeng brought a group of students to Yuyang again.

"Teacher, I have ordered your machines to be transported here according to your instructions, and I will wait for you to come back and debug them."

Yuyang Machinery Manufacturing Factory, Li Bai introduced to Zhang Qingfeng as he walked.

"That's right, it seems that you are very attentive." Zhang Qingfeng was very satisfied after inspecting the factory area of ​​the machinery factory.

This machinery manufacturing factory covers an area of ​​more than ten acres and is surrounded by walls. There are [-] large workshops, but there are only dozens of machine tools.

These machine tools were all made by Zhang Qingfeng in the Taihang Mountains. They were mainly used to produce pendulum clocks and small batches of flintlock guns for Cao Cao.

The pendulum clock is a luxury product that Zhang Qingfeng sold to rich people, which made him a lot of money.

As for the flintlock, because the cost is too high, orders are limited, and only dozens of guns are manufactured a year.

This time the machinery factory was relocated to Yuyang City, Zhang Qingfeng was going to do a big job.

After a few days, Zhang Qingfeng led his students to reassemble and debug dozens of machine tools.

With the rumbling operation of several steam engines, the machinery factory finally started production.

First of all, Zhang Qingfeng is of course using machines to produce machines.

For such a large machinery manufacturing plant, a few machine tools are definitely not enough, so he needs to manufacture a large number of machine tools.

These machine tools mainly include lathes, milling machines, grinding machines, punching machines, drilling machines, boring machines, planers and so on.

In addition to manufacturing various machine tools, the most important thing is to manufacture steam engines.

The principle of a steam engine is very simple, and Zhang Qingfeng is very familiar with the structures of various steam engines.

What Zhang Qingfeng manufactures is a relatively simple, mature product that is several generations better than the most primitive steam engine.

The reason why steam engines are manufactured is mainly to provide power for various machine tools.

In order to set up this machinery manufacturing factory, Zhang Qingfeng brought dozens of graduates and hundreds of ordinary workers from the Taihang Mountains.

These students and workers were all cultivated by Zhang Qingfeng when he was in the Taihang Mountains.

Of course, this manpower was definitely not enough for him, so he asked Li Bai to find hundreds of local teenagers, and he planned to train them while working.

…………

Time flies, and several months have passed.

In the past few months, Li Bai has not only set up a machinery factory, but also set up a school in Yuyang City that can accommodate thousands of people. The teachers of the school are Li Shishi and Li Qingzhao who came out from the Taihang Mountains as teachers.

Because students' tuition is free and meals are provided, many parents in Yuyang City are willing to send their children under the age of ten to study in school.

As for children over the age of ten, since they are considered half of the labor force at home, parents naturally do not want them to study.

Therefore, when Zhang Qingfeng came to the school, all he saw were children under the age of ten.

These children have both boys and girls. The reason why there are girls is not that the parents in ancient times did not favor boys over girls, but because sending their daughters here means that the government will help them raise their children. The parents of the students have a good plan.

Zhang Qingfeng is mainly busy with the machinery manufacturing factory in Yuyang City, but occasionally he also goes to school to teach the children.

Seeing these children, what he thought in his heart was that after a few more years, these children would all become the best industrial talents.

In the eleventh month of the lunar calendar in AD 208, the weather in the north has turned cold, and ice and snow have covered the entire northern land.

On this day, a tank boat slowly docked at Yuyang City Wharf.

"Sister Cai, we have arrived in Yuyang City." A woman about 20 years old happily shouted into the cabin, her tone was quite cheerful.

"Reached!"

A feminine voice sounded from the cabin.

In the next second, a beautiful woman in a gorgeous fairy dress came out of the cabin.

"Sister Cai, my senior brother Li Bai is the prefect of Yuyang County, we will go to him now." The woman in front said happily.

A group of people got off the boat, asked the pedestrians about the direction of the government office, and then went straight to the destination.

"Wow, this Yuyang City is so beautiful!"

After the group got off the boat, they couldn't help but marvel when they saw the smooth and straight cement roads, the tall city walls, and the beautiful white brick houses in the city walls.

"I didn't expect Senior Brother Li Bai to develop Yuyang so well. It is much more beautiful than Senior Brother Wang Wei's Wu'an County." The woman said to the beautiful woman beside her in surprise.

This woman was Liu Rushi, one of Zhang Qingfeng's female students who was poached to Wu'an County by Wang Wei three years ago.

Liu Ru is 20 years old this year. She has been away from home for three years and wanted to go home, so she came back.

But before that, she received a letter from Li Shishi, knowing that Li Bai and Li Shishi were both in Yuyang County, so she simply followed the canal to Yuyang, planning to play in Yuyang for a while before returning from Youzhou Taihang Mountains.

When she came back this time, she also brought a guest, Cai Wenji.

Cai Wenji was redeemed by Cao Cao from the grassland last year.

At the beginning of this year, Liu Rushi met Cai Wenji by chance when he was visiting his brother Du Fu in Yecheng.

Cai Wenji has been familiar with the rhythm of poetry and books since she was a child, and has a brilliant literary talent.

And Liu Rushi is Zhang Qingfeng's favorite student, so he knows everything about astronomy, geography, history and literature. Both of them are women, and they are equally talented in literature. After some exchanges, the two became very good friends.

Although Cai Wenji was ten years older than Liu Rushi, the two got along very well, as if they had been friends for years.

This time when Liu Rushi returned to his hometown, Cai Wenji followed Liu Rushi because he had no relatives in Yecheng.

The group entered the city, and soon arrived at the Sheriff's Mansion of Yuyang City.

"Please inform Li Bai, Li Taishou, that his relative Liu Rushi is here."

In front of the prefect's mansion, Liu Rushi said to the gatekeepers.

"You are Sansan?"

Hearing Liu Rushi's words, the gatekeeper asked Liu Rushi in surprise.

"Eh." Hearing the question from the gatekeeper, Liu Rushi looked at the soldier carefully, and then shouted in surprise, "Brother Big Niu."

"Oh, it's Sansan, why are you here?" Hearing Liu Rushi's address, the gatekeeper immediately greeted Liu Rushi affectionately.

Sansan was Liu Rushi's childhood name, and she was named Liu Rushi after she became Zhang Qingfeng's student.

"I haven't been home for several years. I'm going to go home and have a look. I passed by Yuyang and heard that senior brother Li Bai is the prefect of Yuyang, so I came to visit." Liu Rushi explained.

Then she asked the other party again: "Brother Big Niu, why are you here, and you are still..."

"Hey, after you and Wang Wei left last time, I came here to follow Mr. Li. Now I am Mr. Li's family soldier, responsible for protecting the safety of the prefect's mansion." The soldier named Daniu explained.

"By the way, your brother and the others are also here. He is now the director of Liulichang, and he is in charge of hundreds of people. He is quite impressive."

"That's right, my brother is also in Yuyang, that's great." Hearing Big Niu's words, Liu Rushi was very pleasantly surprised.

"Not only your brother, many people from our Erdaogou Village have come to Yuyang, but also your classmates Li Shishi, Chen Yuanyuan, Gu Hengbo, Li Xiangjun, etc. They are all in Yuyang City, and they are still teaching at Yuyang Academy gentlemen."

"Really? That's great." Liu Rushi was even more pleasantly surprised.

"By the way, your teacher, Mr. Ruixiang, is also in Yuyang City. He should be in Yuyang No. [-] Machinery Manufacturing Factory. The prefect went there early this morning. If you want to see the prefect, you may have to wait night."

"What, the teacher is here too, that's great, I'll go see the teacher now."
