The sun rises and sets, the sun sets and the sun rises.
The day flew by in the blink of an eye. Zhao Jun tried to get up from the bed, but this time he really ran out of food and grass.
It was inconvenient for the old man to know that he had been here for many months in the past few months, and it had all come to a standstill.
Now that he is finally gone, the entire Yunzhou County is about to start moving again.
Apart from anything else, the Japanese slaves who are still in Nanli County must be sent over as soon as possible.
As Yunzhou County's iron smelting technology has continued to improve over the years, the demand for various minerals has also increased.
There are mines in Yunzhou County, the kind that would take hundreds of years to dig out. The entire Tatar grassland is now his territory, and countless ores can be buried underneath.
But the problem is that no one is mining, which is the main reason for limiting the iron smelting capacity of Yunzhou County.
With this batch of Japanese slaves, and the continuous stream of Japanese slaves that followed, the mining industry in Yunzhou County was finally able to receive a huge complement of manpower.
In addition, the two new cities have been completely completed and can be officially put into use only after Zhao Jun arranges a time and the inspection team from Yunzhou County to go for inspection.
This was completed years ago, but it has been delayed until March now before I finally have time to solve it.
The putting into use of these two new cities will not only greatly enhance the Yunzhou County Sheriff's ability to control the entire Yunzhou County, but also immediately relieve the population pressure of Yunzhou City, which is also a top priority.
There is also the problem of the steam engine. Due to sealing problems, the kinetic energy of the steam engine has not been increased.
But it is inappropriate to go looking for rubber trees aimlessly now. I don’t know how long it will take to find them.
In order to continue to advance the progress of the steam engine project, Tiangong Institute had no choice but to start looking for alternatives.
With the assistance of the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, various materials from all over the world were continuously transported to Yunzhou County, spending countless gold and silver. Finally, half a year later, a local product that can replace rubber was found!
Fig gum!
After experimenting with hundreds of things, the masters of Tiangongyuan finally found fig gum that could temporarily replace rubber.
Although fig gum is much inferior to rubber, it can still be used.
In the rubber tree mountain, fig gum is already the best substitute that can be found.
After the discovery of fig gum, the steam engine project of Tiangong Institute that had been stagnant for a long time was quickly put into operation again. In order to ensure an adequate supply of fig gum, Zhao Jun specially asked Feiyun Trading Company to purchase a large number of fig saplings from northern Jiangsu. It was transported to the territory of Shendu by ship. Through Shendu, Yunzhou County was able to plant a large amount of the three pieces of land in Shendu. It is expected that it will not take long to obtain a large amount of raw materials.
At the same time, Zhao Jun firmly believed in the principle of walking on two legs, so Mingtian Engineering Institute teamed up with shipbuilding experts recruited from the four southeastern counties with high salaries to begin designing and researching ocean-going ships.
At most, fig gum is only a current substitute. The only thing that can truly match the steam engine is rubber. However, Zhao Jun does not know where the rubber is in this world, so it is extremely necessary to form an expedition team to find rubber trees.
When forming an expedition team, ships that can go far into the ocean are unintentionally the most crucial part, and preparations need to be made in advance.
In short, Yunzhou County still has a lot to do, but there is not so much time for King Yun to continue fishing.
If you want to fish with peace of mind, you must finish what you need to do before fishing, otherwise you will not be able to survive even if you fish.
After coming out of the palace, Zhao Jun first went to Yunzhou County and signed an order allowing the first batch of 50,000 Japanese slaves to enter.
Because the number of 200,000 Japanese slaves was too large and they were afraid of troubles on the way, and due to the limited transportation capacity of Yunzhou County, the 200,000 Japanese slaves were divided into four batches, and 50,000 Japanese slaves were transported to Yunzhou one after another. county.
However, for so many Japanese slaves to enter the country, Zhao Jun must sign an entry order.
This resulted in Zhao Jun having to personally handle the matter of Japanese slaves entering the country no matter what.
After signing the relevant orders, Zhao Jun took the acceptance team to two new cities without stopping to start the acceptance inspection.
This is a big project, with two big cities that can accommodate millions of people. It will take more than a month just to check and accept, so there is no chance of anything going wrong.
Once there is a problem that is not noticed during the acceptance inspection, it will be exposed until the people officially move in. The manpower and material resources required to solve it will undoubtedly be an astronomical figure compared to now.
Therefore, Zhao Jun did not dare to neglect the acceptance of the two new cities. He personally led people to check and confirm bit by bit, and really devoted himself to the work.
…
While Zhao Jun was busy inspecting the new city, Zhao Duan and his party finally returned to Bianjing at the end of April after traveling for more than a month.
At this time, Bianjing was like a barrel of explosives, because he, the emperor, had not passed by in nearly half a year. All the careerists slowly bared their fangs and bared their claws at the prince who was supervising the country. The first emperor might appear at any time. A person who pounced on the prince.
The entire Bianjing capital is on the edge of a cliff. Everyone is waiting for a breaking point, waiting for a cannon fodder who is the pioneer of the king to take the initiative to stand up.
However, at this juncture, one day after the officials went to court as usual, they were shocked to find that someone had taken the position that had been vacant for nearly half a year.
If you look carefully, who is he if he is not the emperor?
This incident shocked all the forces at once. The people who were showing their teeth and claws quickly retracted their claws, and those who were grinning quickly opened their mouths. The Bianjing City, which was gradually heading towards the wind and rain, suddenly became calm.
It was as if those careerists had never shown up, everything became calm, and the turbulent bottom of the lake gradually became calmer.
The appearance of Zhao Duan is like a needle that pinpoints everyone's ambitions!
However, the outstretched hand is so easy to retract.
The one who moved quickly and neatly escaped the disaster, but the one who moved slowly and hesitated was immediately caught by Zhao Duan and was uprooted and suffered heavy losses.
All the forces in the capital seemed to have returned to twenty years ago, and saw the high-spirited young man stepping into that position with the support of the royal family, threading the needle in the complicated situation, calming the situation, and suppressing everything.
Let Da Song, who was about to sink, set sail again. Although his body was full of holes, it would not be possible to sink him in a short time.
Everything seems to have faded away yesterday, reappearing today.
Bringing everything back to that year.
Everyone was silent for fear of attracting this person's attention.
Everything was restored to the way it was before he left.
Chengqian Palace.
"Your Majesty is here!"
Cao Shuang's voice sounded in the palace again.
The prince Zhao Ming, who had shed his duty of supervising the country, came out of the palace to greet him with a face full of shame.
"My son, I will see my father. May my father pay his respects to you?"
