Chapter 1144 Three Industrial Parks in the South
After the heavy industry in the south has been well established, Luo Chong will also make plans for the industrial development zone in the capital.
According to Luo Chong's idea, the capital will definitely be dominated by industrial population in the future. These people live in the city, and they cannot take the train to the countryside outside to farm every day, so they must be satisfied with their work in the city.
In this way, a large number of factories are needed in the city. Therefore, industrial zones in the city came into being.
According to Luo Chong's layout, Chengkang County and Qi'an County are the heavy industrial bases in the south, but heavy industry produces materials, and these primary materials must be processed into usable commodities, so another industrial base is needed, which Luo Chong calls the manufacturing base.
Luo Chong plans to place this manufacturing base on the north side of Takuhai County, along the railway line from Takuhai County to the capital, so that it is convenient to transport materials and goods, and the entire Takuhai County can also provide protection for the industrial zone.
Even if there are enemies from overseas who come ashore in the future, they must first defeat Takuhai County and Tangcheng Eight Counties before they can plunder the industrial base in the north of Takuhai County. However, by the time they really finish defeating Takuhai County, the industrial base behind it has long been moved away by Luo Chong using the railway along the line. This is a decision made for the purpose of strategic defense.
In addition, this manufacturing base is also mainly based on heavy industrial manufacturing, such as rubber processing plants, shipbuilding plants, tractor plants, bicycle plants, machinery processing plants, hardware processing plants, etc.
The Han tribe currently only has a shipyard that builds wooden sailboats, and there is no shipyard that can build steam ironclad ships. The location of Takuhai County is very good. There is a heavy industrial base in the north, and steel can meet the supply. It is a coastal city, close to the seaport, and has soil for the development of the shipbuilding industry.
Behind the shipyard, a mechanical processing base can be placed. For example, various parts needed for shipbuilding, such as turning propellers, require precision machining equipment. Port cranes can also be manufactured here to serve the shipbuilding industry and port terminals.
Other tractor factories and bicycle factories can be lined up along both sides of the railway. Whatever parts are needed, they can be produced directly from the mechanical processing factory next to them, forming an industrial cluster and industrial chain.
These are the manufacturing bases of "large commodities". Even heavy-loaded trains can be produced here, but such manufacturing is obviously not suitable for the capital.
Therefore, there is also a tertiary industrial chain in the capital, that is, light industry, food industry, and high-tech industry.
The establishment of a light industrial park in the capital was not something Luo Chong came up with on a whim, but was determined by the conditions here.
First, the capital will have a large number of industrial population in the future, and light industry, also known as labor-intensive industry, requires a large number of laborers, which just coincides with the conditions of the capital.
Second, from Takuhai County to the capital, or from the estuary of Liuyang River to the west and grassland Honghu to the east, the large area in the middle is all fertile farmland, which is very suitable for vigorously developing agriculture.
A lot of cotton can be planted here. With cotton, textile printing and dyeing can be done in the capital. To the west of the capital is the grassland Honghu Lake, and a lot of leather can be obtained from the grassland opposite. So when there are sewing machines in the future, clothing, shoes and hats, leather shoes, and ready-made clothes can be developed. Rubber can be provided in the west , and rubber-soled cloth shoes can be made in the future.
Grain can also be planted here. With grain, non-staple food can be developed, such as sugar pressing, wine making, alcohol, instant noodles, biscuits, beer, soda, etc.
After the planting industry is developed, it can also drive the breeding industry.
After all, there are so many straws that need to be consumed, and there is also grain. If there is too much to eat, you can use grain for breeding. After having a lot of meat, you can also set up a canning factory, canned luncheon meat, sausage, canned beef, canned fruit, and even get a lot of seafood from the sea to make canned fish.
There are also seasonings. Let alone other things, just hot sauce, soy sauce, vinegar, and plant oil can all be done.
Even Qiongzhou Island across the strait, Luo Chong has already thought about the future development direction, which is mainly bamboo.
Qiongzhou Island was originally called Bamboo Island because there are enough bamboos on the island, which just happens to be a resource for development.
Bamboos naturally have bamboo shoots, which can be processed and sold all over the country.
After bamboo is mature, it can also be used to make furniture, door curtains, mats, bamboo woven daily necessities, etc. Corresponding factories can be specially built to concentrate on the production of these things.
In addition, bamboo can also be processed into disposable chopsticks using a lathe.
Wooden disposable chopsticks are of poor quality, not good to sell, and particularly damaging to the environment. They require a lot of wood, but bamboo is different.
Bamboo grows fast and is not afraid of being cut. The more it is cut, the more it grows. Disposable chopsticks made of bamboo are more beautiful and sturdy. The snack stalls, barbecue restaurants, noodle shops, restaurants, hotels, and train stations across the country alone can support the disposable chopsticks industry.
Bamboo can also be used to make paper, which is also a major industry that damages the environment. It requires cutting down a lot of wood, and the pollution emissions from the papermaking industry are also a headache. However, bamboo is more environmentally friendly. Not only is the material cost low, it grows fast, and it is easy to make, but more importantly, there are almost no steps that can produce chemical pollution in the processing steps of bamboo papermaking, so there will be no heavy pollution emissions.
Of course, in the future, the capital will also have to make paper, especially toilet paper.
The people of the Han tribe used whatever they had to wipe their butts, such as bricks, tiles, and dirt, and later they also used leaves.
Everything changed after the Han tribe had corn.
People suddenly found that the layers of skin on the outside of the corn cob, that is, the leaves, were good for wiping butts. First of all, there were too many of them and they could not be used up. Several layers could be peeled off from the outside of a cob. In addition, the corn husk was relatively tough and strong, not easy to be torn, and it was one by one, which was convenient to wipe. After use, it could be thrown directly into the pit, and it could be fermented with manure to become fertilizer, which was environmentally friendly and pollution-free, and could even be reused.
But no matter how good that thing was, it was not as clean and comfortable as toilet paper.
So Luo Chong still wanted to make toilet paper.
There is another material that can be used to make paper, which is straw.
Wheat straw and rice straw can all be used to make paper. The quality of paper made from this material is not very good, and the color is yellow. If it is to be artificially decolorized, a large amount of chemical agents are required, which will definitely cause pollution, but this kind of paper is not completely useless.
This kind of yellow paper can be used as wrapping paper, such as the yellow paper used by doctors in clinics to wrap pills when I was a child, and the yellow paper used to wrap sesame cakes. If it is made thicker, it can also be used to wrap medicinal materials like in ancient costume TV dramas.
The Chinese medicine in the TV drama is wrapped in rhubarb paper, one dose of medicine is wrapped in a package, and finally tied up with fine hemp rope, and can be carried away directly. In fact, many people don’t know that ancient pastries, no, no, no, even modern pastries, are also packaged in this way.
You can first make this yellow paper thicker when making paper, make it into kraft paper, and then fold it into a paper box. The paper box can be used to hold pastries, and then use red paper to stick a festive label on it
. Finally, buy a few boxes of snacks, tie them up with hemp rope, and take them home to eat slowly. In short, this kind of yellow paper has many uses. Even if it is not used for packaging, it can also be used as a homework book.
Even in modern times, many stationery manufacturers produce homework books made of yellowed paper. The Han tribe can also do this and make some "original color paper" homework books to sell to students.
There are many benefits to using straw to make paper. This is a waste recycling, which is better than burning it directly as firewood.
In addition, the capital can also build a building materials industrial park and a home improvement mall.
In the future, more and more people will move to the capital, and more and more houses will be built. So the question is, these houses will definitely need building materials, right?
Cement, sand, steel bars? Bricks, tiles, wood, these are definitely indispensable.
Other more advanced ones include glass, color steel plates, ceramic tiles, and so on.
Especially ceramic tiles, this is a good thing. If every family has floor tiles, how many tiles will be needed, whether it is wooden floors, cement floors, or high-end ceramic tiles, people should have a place to buy them, right? As long as
there is demand and a market, why worry about not being able to sell things?
Another thing is decoration. Do you need plaster and white lime for painting the walls? Do you need some green paint for painting the wall skirts?
In addition, there are lamps, furniture, tables, chairs, benches, hangers, and bookcases. Don't these things need to be added?
In any case, a building materials market must be built.
Luo Chong even thought about how to operate this building materials market. He could directly set aside a piece of land in the capital city to build a building materials market, then build shops inside, and then invite investment. All those who do building materials business can rent or buy shops inside to conduct business.
There must be not only shops inside, but also warehouses and workers. All craftsmen who do decoration can post their signs here to find work, or contact the merchants in the market, and ask them to do it as long as there is work.
As for the factories that produce furniture, these private merchants can build factories themselves, and the tribal officials can sell the use rights of machines and industrial land, such as table saws driven by steam engines, steam-powered air compressors, and various pneumatic tools.
In addition, there are wood processing plants and wood shops, which can be done by private individual merchants. The state-owned enterprises of the Han Empire only need to hold those heavy industries and high-tech industries in their hands. Such furniture factories, wood factories, etc. can all be privately owned by the private sector.
Even those who are capable and have ideas can organize migrant workers to come to the city to work, contract construction projects, and organize a construction team to build houses for people and get paid.
After all, the population of the capital will continue to increase in the future. So many people will live in a place where they will definitely need a lot of houses. These construction teams and decoration teams can be organized. Maybe a small contractor will turn it into a real estate company.
This is not impossible. In short, with the progress of society, all kinds of things will surely develop.
What the leader Luo Chong needs to do is to use his advanced vision to give them advice from time to time, guide them to the right path, and avoid some detours.
