Iron Dynasty

Xiao Ming explained, Pang Yukun listened in fascination, the concept of the production team gradually became clear in his mind.

A brand-new production method made him suddenly have a feeling of clearing the clouds and seeing the sun.

In fact, the concept of production team is easy to understand. It is to divide the people into groups according to the number of people, and each group is allocated with cattle and tools. These production tools are shared by the group, and the groups cooperate with each other when sowing and harvesting.

In this way, production efficiency can be greatly improved, and the team leader is responsible for production tasks and supervises production.

For Pang Yukun, this is a completely unfamiliar concept. Not only the Great Yu Kingdom, but also the government of the past dynasties will only be responsible for land and tax issues. Never has production been implemented on the common people like Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming saw Pang Yukun's expression. He was just borrowing modern production methods, and the country of Da Yu was still in the self-sufficiency of the small peasant economy.

But this self-sufficiency has also been destroyed by the land monopoly of the rich and powerful, and now his fief can be said to be extremely low in productivity.

Xiao Ming now proposes that the production method of the production team has to be a last resort. His fief is too embarrassed, and now he can only get rid of the backward situation by organizing strongly.

At least now, when productivity is lagging behind, he believes that this method is extremely efficient. In the face of national predicament, the planned economy is the sharpest knife. Letting things go is only equal to breaking the pot.

Now the massive annexation of his fiefdoms has demonstrated this problem. Without strong control, the people will lose more.

Under the action of technology spar, Pang Yukun has a deeper understanding of the structure and understanding of the production team.

His Royal Highness, the lower officials have been taught. I will now notify the state officials to organize production teams and distribute the cattle and tools. Pang Yukun said.

Wait, for those wealthy households who are willing to share their farming cattle and farming tools with the production team, a certain amount of compensation can be given. Another point is that the protection of farming cattle and farming tools must be restricted by laws. Xiao Ming added.

Pang Yukun bowed again and saluted, and went to the Governor's Mansion impatiently.

Although he had never heard of this method of production, after understanding it, he understood that it would quickly restore production in Qingzhou.

On the way to the Governor's Mansion, Pang Yukun remembered that Xiao Ming, who had just calmed down, was very confused. The current King Qi is too different from before. Why is this?

Frowning and thinking hard, he suddenly thought of a possibility, Could it be that King Qi has been hiding his talents so as not to be regarded as an opponent by other princes? This assassination has made King Qi realize that he has nowhere to hide?

Looking back at the direction of Prince Qi's mansion, Pang Yukun's eyes showed a look of contemplation.

At this time, in Prince Qi's mansion, Xiao Ming also glanced in the direction of the governor's mansion. He could see that Pang Yukun was ambitious.

Which scholar of this era does not have the country's society in mind, the world is common, in short, the scholar of this era is very high.

Pang Yukun is known as the most vicious official, naturally because he is full of ambition and has a passion for the Great Yu Kingdom.

That's why Xiao Ming takes a fancy to Pang Yukun. Such people are rare, because they do practical things, and such people are also disgusting, because they are not well-mannered.

But anyway, when it comes to fiefs, Pang Yukun is a good hand. He has been in Qingzhou for five years, and the people did not rise up and hang him on the city gate, thanks to Pang Yukun.

When he talked about the production team, Pang Yukun's eyes lit up, it seemed that he was talking about Pang Yukun's heart.

It is estimated that there is not much problem with this production team.

Stretching, Xiao Ming tightened the tiger-skin cloak on his body. This thing is genuine. Tigers here are not protected animals, but a harm.

His Royal Highness, are you going to the Equipment Division again? Seeing Xiao Ming descending the steps, Aster walked towards Xiao Ming.

Today, Aster is still wearing a purple skirt, but inside the skirt is a thick winter coat. Xiao Ming also has this kind of winter clothes. He has seen it, and it is covered with kapok.

In some parts of the Great Yu country, cotton is still planted on a large scale, but it is only worn by wealthy people. Otherwise, why did the ancients come to the stinky wine and meat of Zhumen, and the road has frozen bones?

Let's go and see how the farm tools that this king explained are forged? Xiao Ming said.

The servant sent someone to prepare a horse for His Highness, Ziwan said, and then quickly sent the servant to the stable.

Xiao Ming nodded. After Qian Dafu went out to look for mines, Aster took care of all the chores up and down in the palace, but this girl managed it in an orderly manner.

A lot of time has passed since the assassination, but every time Xiao Ming went out, he still brought a bodyguard with him.

When they arrived at the gate of the palace, two personal guards were already waiting at the gate.

These are the two bodyguards that Lu Fei personally selected for him. They are responsible for his safety. The two are still brothers, one is Zhao Long and the other is Zhao Hu.

When he arrived at the equipment department, Xiao Ming directly went to see the farming tools that were going to be distributed this time.

Part of the silver earned last time was used to build a workshop, and part was used to buy cattle and forge farming tools.

But there is one thing Xiao Ming is satisfied with. Since he handed over the technology of briquettes to the Wang family, the ore and coal of the equipment company are much cheaper now, and the cost is deducted from his share, which saves Xiao Ming a lot of money. less money.

In the equipment department, the craftsmen are busy, some are forging, some are smelting iron ore.

The iron-making technology in Dayu country is still based on the steel filling method. Generally speaking, this method is to bundle pig iron sheets on wrought iron sheets. Generally speaking, the carbon content of wrought iron is below 0.02%, while that of pig iron is 2%. Above, in this way, the liquid pig iron can be evenly integrated into the wrought iron sheet, resulting in steel with carbon in between.

This method is widely spread in Dayu Country, and it is a relatively good steelmaking method, but according to the current equipment department's demand for agricultural tools and coal stoves, the steelmaking volume of this method gradually cannot keep up with the requirements.

This time Xiao Ming came here to improve the method of making steel.

It's just that he can't change the steel pouring method for the time being, because the crucible steelmaking requires graphite, and the converter steelmaking is even more impossible.

Blast furnace ironmaking? Chen Wenlong looked blank when Xiao Ming proposed this method.

There is iron, there is steel. This is a real problem at present. This graphite Xiao Ming asked Qian Dafu to focus on finding it. Now a month has passed, and there is no news.

He can only temporarily increase the production of iron, and when Qian Dafu returns, if he succeeds in finding graphite, the increase in iron production can form a production line with that of crucible steelmaking.
