It was determined that the efficiency of electric motors was better than that of steam engines, so another production line was added in the steam engine factory specifically to produce electric motors!

Ying Feiyu plans to replace all textile factories with electric motors.

This thing is more efficient than a steam engine, so it can lower the price of cloth even further!

Textile factories have branches all over Daqin. It will probably take a long time to replace all these steam engines with electric motors!

It takes several months just to produce the motor, and there are so few craftsmen who know how to replace it now that they need to be retrained!

At the same time, the production of internal combustion engines never stops.

All production lines in the steam engine factory were converted into internal combustion engine production lines.

All craftsmen implement a three-shift system and produce internal combustion engines 24 hours a day!

When the internal combustion engine had just been tested successfully, Ying Feiyu ordered the Ministry of Industry to start building an automobile factory.

The original steam cars were only produced in a small workshop of the steam engine factory, and the output was very small.

Because this thing is only used for transportation and show-off, its practicality is not very high, and it will definitely be replaced by internal combustion engines in the future.

So Ying Feiyu doesn’t plan to build a factory!

But since the advent of the internal combustion engine, the situation has been different.

No matter how cars are modified and upgraded in the future, the form of the internal combustion engine will not change and can be mass-produced!

After Da Qin started the crazy mode of infrastructure construction, the number of craftsmen in the Ministry of Industry also increased day by day, and the division of labor was clear.

A factory building was built in just two months!

The craftsmen who originally produced steam cars have now moved to work in automobile factories, and many craftsmen have been recruited to come and learn from them!

The factory expanded, and the craftsmen who had built cars before became masters of the various workshops of the car factory, and their salaries doubled!

"Not to mention, the craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry have improved a lot in their craftsmanship. This factory building is transparent and beautiful!"

Ying Feiyu took the time to walk around the car factory and smiled with great satisfaction.

Before he came to Da Qin, some people's windows were covered with silk cloth, which had poor light transmittance.

The poorer ones, who cannot afford silk cloth, use wooden boards and straw.

When you go to bed at night, you can just take a wooden board and block the window lattice, and that will do the trick!

Since Ying Feiyu arrived, earth-shaking changes have taken place!

The system rewarded the telescope, and Daddy asked him to build more for military use!

If you want to build a telescope, you need glass, so at that time, he built a glass factory specifically to supply glass for telescopes!

Later he started making glass mirrors.

Later, as the demand gradually expanded, the glass factory also expanded, and the glass was gradually reformed!

We can produce everything from ordinary glass used in people's homes to special glass needed in trains and ships!

The automobile factory built by the Ministry of Industry this time also used a lot of glass, and the light inside the house is very good!

"Yes, there are many parts needed to make a car. If there is no good light, then you can only light the lamp. With these glasses, you can save a lot of resources!"

Huang Yuan nodded repeatedly.

The factories being built now are much better than the original steel mills and the like!

Spacious and bright!

"Well, with the improvement of craftsmanship, every factory in the future will be better than the last!"

This is why Ying Feiyu insisted on improving the identity, status and salary of craftsmen.

Only when the status is improved, more people will be willing to do this line of work!

Only when the money is in place will the craftsmen be willing to spend more time studying their craftsmanship!

"His Royal Highness, are you saying that... you will build a factory in the future?"

Huang Yuan's eyes lit up.

It felt like it had been a long time since he had built anything new for the internal combustion engine.

I used to supervise the transformation of the internal combustion engine production line. Now all the production lines have been transformed and the automobile factory has started normal production. I am suddenly idle. I am not used to it!

Those small raincoats and various sports equipment are not challenging at all. They can be made after a few experiments!

Not to mention him, even the craftsmen under him can complete it successfully!

"Of course, not only will factories be built in the future, but many factories will be built!"

Da Qin still lacks many things, and what he has brought forward now is only a small part of it, and it is also the most important part.

After free time, there is still a lot to produce!

"That's good!"

Huang Yuan felt relieved and grinned.

"Aren't you afraid that all your hair will fall out before you reach forty?"

"At least losing your hair proves that you are still useful. If you become a useless person, what's the use of having more hair?"

Huang Yuan was quite open-minded.

"Haha, it's true. If you don't work hard when you are young, you will regret it when you get old!"

"That's exactly what it means!"

"Internal combustion engine cars require mass production, and now it seems there are still too few workers!"

After chatting for a while, Ying Feiyu looked at the craftsmen on the production line and said with emotion.

"Alas...! When it comes to this, I am very helpless! Notices for recruiting workers are posted almost all over the streets and alleys of Xianyang City, but not many craftsmen come!"

Looking at the busy craftsmen in the workshop, Huang Yuan showed a helpless expression.

Normally, the salary offered by the automobile factory is not low, but there are not many people who sign up!

Especially after starting a family and starting a business, there are even fewer.

If it were in the past, when automobile factories offered high salaries, ordinary people would have to break their heads to squeeze in.

"How are other industries doing?"

Ying Feiyu asked.

"It's the same, every factory has a shortage of workers!"

"Okay, leave this matter to me, the prince!"

Ying Feiyu said with a relaxed expression.

"Your Highness, can you solve it?"

Huang Yuan was very surprised.

"It's hard to say, let's give it a try!"

After saying that, Ying Feiyu strolled out of the car factory and headed to the newspaper office.

Apart from increasing publicity, he has no better way!

The conditions and benefits offered by various factories are already the best, and they really can’t be any higher!

The newspaper office was busy with business, and Wang Wan and Queen Loulan were sitting in the room discussing something.

"Rosa, look at this report. Is it a little too long?"

"Yeah! Indeed...!"

The two were discussing seriously and did not hear Ying Feiyu's footsteps at all.

"What are you discussing? So serious?"

Ying Feiyu's sudden arrival startled the two girls.

"Ouch! You scared me to death!"

"Short-legged, can you walk without making a sound?"

After seeing the person clearly, the two women kept patting their chests and their faces turned pale.

"How can you make me walk without making a sound? You two are too engrossed in chatting, okay? Those reporters outside are still saying hello to me. Didn't you hear them?"

When Ying Feiyu entered the door, the reporters quickly greeted him, but who knew that these two people didn't hear them at all.

"Have it……?"

The two women looked at each other with confusion written all over their faces.
