Over time, the officials felt that being respected by the common people was a real pleasure.
In my previous job, I was simply living in a muddleheaded way, always worrying about being exploited by my superiors.
Now there is no need to think about this at all.
Comfortable.
He is also energetic in what he does and the treatment is really good.
You have to cherish this hard-won opportunity.
I heard that starting in November, the Yamen will start recruiting new people.
The final elimination system is still adopted.
There will be assessments every month.
Assessments are divided into three categories.
The first is the physical fitness test. If you run for two miles without being out of breath, you will fail.
The second is the cultural assessment. At that time, you will be randomly asked ten words. If you cannot answer four, you will fail.
The third is the professional assessment. When you are an official, you need to learn the basics of judging cases, understand some laws, autopsy, and first aid knowledge, and conduct random inspections.
Anyway, if you fail more than two of the three items at the end of the year, you can get out.
The most difficult thing was the third business assessment, which simply made the officials more knowledgeable than the other.
I'm afraid that what I'm smoking is violating the rules!
I recite the thirty commonly used rules every night, even when I'm on patrol.
Otherwise, people must be forced out.
The officials stupefiedly compiled the thirty major rules into a jingle, making it easier to remember.
And Chen Ze's financial budget is finally stretched again.
Soaps and perfumes are once again a hit.
Because it had been laid for a long time, Qin Boyang promoted it in other places in the eight southern states, and the first batch of goods was quickly sold out.
Of course, the main reason is that the price is not expensive.
The pricing of consumables cannot be too high. It is unrealistic to expect Ningyu to sell them like that.
Even the rich and powerful can't stand it.
The pricing ranges from five to twenty taels, and the fragrances are diverse.
The cost is relatively high, after all, the raw materials require alcohol to extract.
See which scent is the most popular and focus on production for the next sale.
This thing is indeed in short supply and is really easy to sell.
But at present, whether it is perfume or soap, the production technology is still not mature yet, the production cycle is long, and it cannot be supplied in large quantities.
While Chen Ze was busy teasing Muque, Qin Boyang had already opened up the sales of soap and perfume.
Not as outrageous as Ningyu Tangshuang, but still a profit of 50,000 taels.
Moreover, the benefits generated by frosting are not high, but perfumes and soaps are not unexpected. There is a guaranteed profit of 50,000 taels every month. And as time goes by and the technology becomes more and more mature, this profit will become more and more. high.
Qin Boyang has established his own research department and invested money to start technology research and development.
Fifty thousand taels were just delivered to Qingzhou and were immediately included in the budget.
I didn't even cover the heat.
It is really necessary to start repairing the roads in Qingzhou City. Many places are in a state of disrepair. Car rollovers occur basically every day.
At present, ordinary people simply use bluestones to build a path that people can walk on.
Moreover, even though it is a hot day, some places are so muddy that water cannot seep through for people's daily use.
The most serious thing was the smell near the public toilets that were more than 200 years old. Chen Ze didn't know how the people living nearby lived their lives at that time.
Some areas of the sewers still need to be repaired.
The new city expanded during the Sui and Yuan Dynasties had sewers. There were sewers underground in the main streets, which were connected to the moat on the other side of the ancient city.
Cement is naturally the current choice.
But how to practice it and where to start it are all issues that need to be considered.
This matter... the common people may not necessarily support it, especially the vendors along the street, who may oppose it.
In the past, roads were built with mud and bluestone bricks, which were paved with little care and would not hinder people's business.
But after all, cement paving takes time to cool and dry, at least two or three days. During this period, traffic will definitely not be allowed.
Therefore, this matter must be informed to the people in advance and strive for understanding.
The main job of the Qingzhou Yamen officials these two days is to do ideological work for the vendors along the street and prepare for road construction.
At the same time, the cement workshop also began paving experiments.
It’s definitely not something you can just put cement on and then be done.
The ground needs to be compacted, and the cement also needs to be solidified.
It's just that there are no vibrators these days, so we can only use manual repeated stepping to make the cement more solid. This way the cement will be stronger and less likely to collapse.
The height of the new road needs to be unified to ensure stability, and gutters should be reserved on both sides of the road. After adding the gutters, the angle needs to be considered to ensure that the drainage is smooth and not blocked, and a new main sewer channel must be added.
This requires professional technical talents.
The Great Sui Dynasty had the unit of Bao Lusi, but this unit was canceled in the last generation of the Great Sui Dynasty. The reason was that it was felt to be a waste of money and there was no need to exist, and Da Chu was not added back.
Chen Ze almost searched all over Qingzhou before he found six people who had worked in the Baolu Division before, and they were basically all in their sixties.
These six people were previously responsible for maintaining Qingzhou's sewers and roads and had relevant work experience. However, they were too old and had poor memories. They could no longer remember the information about Qingzhou's sewers.
Moreover, at this age, he is no longer able to go into the water, and his health is not very good. After all, if he wants to repair the sewer, he can only swim in from the moat. He has been suffering from health problems for many years.
The craftsmen of Emperor Yuan of the Sui Dynasty did not think about how big the sewers would be. Besides, if they were built too big, they would have to worry about hiding people inside. This would make it difficult for the enemy to get into the sewers during a battle and launch a sneak attack.
The sewer is only a semicircle with a diameter of one meter. It would be difficult for a child to get in, let alone a normal person.
Moreover, the sewers have not been repaired for fifty years, and many places are already blocked, making it even more risky for people to get in.
However, as long as everyone works together, it is not a big problem.
Eight roads have been paved experimentally at the cement workshop.
Each one is not long, ranging from ten to twenty meters.
The materials used are different and the paving methods are different.
One of them is the basic gravel paving. After compaction, it is directly paved with cement and smoothed. Natural precipitation is chosen as a contrast.
After the cement has solidified, pull a horse-drawn carriage and run directly over it, or pour water on it for pressure and water seepage testing.
Trouble is trouble, but it's the way to go.
A relatively mature technical solution can save a lot of unnecessary waste and repairs, and can also lay the foundation for future dam construction.
The masters of the cement workshop have begun to give full play to their subjective initiative. Combined with the successfully operated turbine waterwheel, they have developed a hydraulic automatic mixer, and even have precise measuring bucket ratio and time control, so that the cement is most evenly mixed. , the highest intensity.
Even the large hydraulic stone crusher has been used. Apart from almost emptying the iron-making workshop's refined iron inventory, there are basically no shortcomings.
Hard work always pays off.
Fortunately, I didn't spend money to buy a lesson.
