Chapter 898: Immigrants Arrive at Takumi County
It was only a power research institute, but Luo Chong treated them as the Second Ministry of Machine Building. The pressure on these researchers was a bit high, but once this industrial road started, there would be no turning back.
Moreover, Luo Chong's life did not allow him to slack off. Although he was only 18 years old, who could guarantee that Luo Chong would not die suddenly? After all, the medical conditions in this era were so poor!
Therefore, Luo Chong had always used one day as two days, and he wished that he could leave more things for the world while he was in the best condition and energetic.
"I know their tasks are heavy, but there is no way. We have come to this point now. We can't give up halfway. I'm not saying, go ask those researchers, are they willing to stop? I didn't force them to do it." Luo Chong couldn't help but complain.
Dali nodded helplessly. That's right, Luo Chong did not oppress those researchers. They all worked overtime voluntarily, and Dali couldn't stop them.
Seeing that the rolling mill has been built, rails are being produced quickly, the train model experiment has been completed, and the real train is being made. It will soon be possible to lay the railway and let their train run. At this time, you ask them to stop? !
Do you think those researchers will agree? !
Now those researchers are all in an excited state of mind, as if they have endless energy. They don’t know what tiredness is. They just want to let their train run on the rails as soon as possible. Of course,
for the title and reward is part of the reason, but more of it is for a belief in their hearts, a kind of pride in being a pioneer.
As long as they can accomplish this, how will future generations talk about them?
This is definitely a good opportunity to be remembered for thousands of years.
Not only will they gain fame, but they will also earn status and wealth. Who would refuse such a good thing?
Luo Chong paused and continued, "As the governor of Xingang County, you are not allowed to manage farming or breeding. You are only responsible for coordinating and managing miners and steel mills, as well as the production planning and workers of the newly built factories. Can't you think of ways to increase their benefits?
For example, what kind of work, how much mung beans and sugar are given each quarter? Summer is coming soon. The steel mill is so hot. How can we ensure the health of the workers and their enthusiasm for work? If you are able, arrange more benefits for them.
I think that blower is good. It will not only be used to blow air into the blast furnace, but also to Install exhaust fans in the workshop to cool it down.
By the way, before summer comes, build a dormitory for the workers to take a nap. Make sure to install fans and other things. You can use the ice in stock at will, and let them drink the mung bean soup to relieve the heat. You, the county governor, are the steward of Xingang County. You must take good care of these workers.
Do you see these tens of thousands of tons of steel? This is the cornerstone of our Han tribe, and these workers are our treasures. You must take good care of them. If
you have anything to add to what I just said, if you need to build a house, or need food and sugar, please write a report and I will approve it for you. "
Dali nodded helplessly again, which was considered as accepting the matter, but he still said, "But even if we arrange benefits for them, they will be tired. I think it is better to give them more manpower."
"Well, adding manpower is okay, otherwise I will transfer some people from the Comprehensive Research Institute. The mechanical group there is also very capable. Although both parties have completely embarked on different paths, if they work together for a while, maybe they can learn something from each other, which can be regarded as academic exchange.
In addition, some people can be transferred from the chemistry group. Regarding the formula of cement, a lot of chemical experiments and analysis are still needed.
If it doesn't work, I will go back and select some people from schools in various places. Although they can't be of great use, it's still okay to do odd jobs for them." Luo Chong thought for a while before making a decision.
"That's good, that's good. Now we are really short of people. I think the people from the Comprehensive Research Institute should be good. The scale and mechanical clock they took out during the New Year are quite good. They look very powerful." Dali said very happily when he heard that Luo Chong was going to transfer the mechanical group of a school.
In fact, it is similar to what Luo Chong said. Although the mechanical group of the first institute and the power research institute are both researching machinery, they have actually embarked on completely different paths. One is engaged in the manufacture of precision instruments, and the other is engaged in large-scale power production equipment.
The first institute is working hard in the direction of camera shutters and pocket watches, while the research projects of the second institute are such that any part that can be pulled out easily weighs several tons. This is the difference between the two sides now. It doesn't matter which one is stronger or weaker. For the Han tribe, they are equally important.
Now that the two groups of people are transferred to work together, maybe some sparks can be created. They can learn from each other's experience and then come up with something else good?
Luo Chong is very much looking forward to this.
The eight counties of Hanyang are like a huge machine, turning in an orderly manner. On the other hand, the one thousand immigrants who took the boat to the south at the beginning of the year finally arrived at the dock of Takumi County. They are now only one stop away from their destination for the rest of their lives. After crossing the strait, these people can settle down immediately.
Ten large sailing ships stopped at the dock of Takumi County, attracting the attention of people on both sides of the strait, because although the Han tribe often had ships traveling between the north and the south, such a large fleet of ten three-masted sailing ships at a time was rare.
These immigrants needed to rest here temporarily, and then set off again from Takumi County to Qiongzhou Island with other supplies that needed to be replenished to Qiongzhou Island.
After all, there was not even a place to take a shower on the ship. After a month and a half, the whole person was going to be rotten. Before arriving at the destination, it must be necessary to take a shower, change clothes, and dress up again.
Dashu got the contact of the fleet a few days ago and had already prepared to receive thousands of immigrants. In addition, there were many sets of photographic equipment and photographers who were responsible for making identity cards here and training operators, etc. The same equipment and personnel, and another set were prepared for Qiongzhou Island. When the immigrants arrived there, the local people would also accept the same identity card system.
"Okay, everyone, get on deck. We are almost at our destination. Everyone, bring your own clothes. Let's go to the shore to rest for a few days. Everyone, take a shower, wash clothes, and have a few good meals. After resting, we will cross the sea."
The immigrants on the ship heard the captain's announcement and hurriedly picked up their personal luggage and went on deck. The scenery they saw immediately changed. Unlike the green mountains and clear waters of the eight counties of Hanyang, the coastal city of Takuhai County was a scene of blue sea and blue sky. Standing on the deck, they could smell the salty and humid sea breeze, which was a smell they had never smelled before.
