Zhang Han wants to make money, but he will not solve the problem of insufficient armor and weapons of the Eight Banners a few years in advance, which is likely to allow the Jurchens to enter the Pass in advance.

With iron quality, Zhang Han’s iron field produces sufficient iron, the miners are very motivated, and everything is developing in a favorable direction.

The entire northern market can be easily grabbed.

That is a market of more than tens of millions of pounds!

Zhang Han felt a red sun rising in front of him, everything in front of him was extremely fresh, and a brand new road appeared in front of him.

In the recent doubled pressure, Iron Field has indeed given him strong support.

Cai Jiu asked someone to open the door of the furnace room, and a burst of heat came to his face. Cai Jiu said solemnly with a mixed expression of pride and pride: "This is the double-chamber smelting method."

The miners who were not rotating were not allowed to follow. The technological innovation here is the highest secret level. In addition to Cai Jiu and Han Laoliu, only the guards can get close to the furnace room.

Zhang Han slowly approached, walked to the furnace room, and looked at everything in front of him.

Han Laoliu’s innovation is very simple to say.

In real history, this double-chamber cast iron method appeared roughly from the late Shunzhi to the early Kangxi period, and was slowly promoted because it was an effective method, which also led to the rapid development of China's cast iron level, and it was not too backward until the end of the Qing Dynasty.

When the Qing Dynasty started to cast cannons again, China's iron-molded cannons were also ahead of the world. It can be seen that as long as there is demand, no encouragement or as long as there is no constraint, China will not lack talented people and skilled craftsmen.

It’s a pity that the development of "skills" cannot withstand the backwardness of "power".

The original furnace room was a room where cast iron solidified into carbohydrate was placed on carbonite, then smelted and forged, and finally made into a combined iron material.

There are too many impurities in this way. Han Laoliu's method is to cleverly design a return air duct, connecting two ear chambers, one chamber uses charcoal to generate fire, and the pipeline sends heat to the other chamber. As long as the temperature reaches, it can still meet the needs of melting, casting and forging.

This idea seems too simple to come from later generations. It was a very difficult breakthrough at that time. In addition, the connection of the return air duct should be designed in an exquisite manner to maintain thermal energy as much as possible.

Otherwise, if this kind of idea is just a waste of time, the heat energy cannot reach the temperature of the cast iron block without reaching the melting point.

This design and experiment were carried out for several months with the support of the iron field. Zhang Han had already received news that it was not until two months later that after many tests, this method was confirmed to be formed and could be used. The iron field in Lingqiu sent someone to arrive at Li Zhuang in Tianchengwei as soon as possible and asked Zhang Han and others to come over to check and inspect.

In the other ear chamber in front of you, the pig iron block heats up in front of Zhang Han's eyes and turns red. After smelting, these pig irons become mature fine iron. After being forged, they can create the most exquisite weapons and the most solid iron armor.

"You have done a good job, I feel proud of you. From then on, our Jin Tie is no worse than the Min Tie!" Zhang Han looked at it for a long time, and finally he praised Cai Jiu and others like this.

Everyone blushed, their eyes full of excitement.

The boss's words sound fresh and feel extremely energetic. Simply put, they are just to boost their energy!

Han Laoliu blinked his eyes and felt that all his efforts and efforts were worth it at this moment.

Only the old miner will do this emotionally

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) to understand the feeling.

"It's not easy for Lao Liu." Zhang Han said: "Cai Jiu, you are the shopkeepers. Your efforts can be reflected in the bonus at the end of the year. If you do well and sell more, you will get more dividends. Han Lao Liu deserves a heavy reward. What do you think?"

Cai Jiu said: "What the boss said is that Lao Liu should take the silver reward."

"I mean more than just rewarding silver." Zhang Han glanced at everyone in front of him. Many people showed complicated expressions on their faces. They also felt that it was not easy for Han Laoliu to be rewarded. They also made great contributions, but they were also jealous of Han Laoliu's upcoming good luck. This emotion was very complicated and it was not a big mistake.

Han Laoliu was a little stunned, and his family members around him showed an unconcealed look of excitement on their faces.

"Han Laoliu has made great contributions," Zhang Han said: "I will call him a technical team foreman here in Tiechang. His monthly salary is the same as that of the branch shopkeeper."

Cai Jiu said to Han Laoliu: "Laoliu, you are lucky, why don't you thank the boss quickly?"

Now the organizational structure of Yusheng is similar to that of the Archer. The head office deals with the Archer headquarters, the two departments deal with the branches in various districts, each bureau is an ordinary branch, and the various groups composed of craftsmen and the special field department also correspond to the branches.

The main reason is that some shopkeepers and senior escorts in the account need some status, so that they can mobilize each other and are easy to manage in terms of monthly money and treatment.

There were not many craftsmen in the iron farm, and the projects were almost completed. When the blast furnace was set up, all the miners were working together. There was no professional construction team. Now Zhang Han was thinking about Han Laoliu's technological innovation, so he simply launched Han Laoliu and established an iron farm technical team. This way, he could continue to innovate and perhaps further promote the technological progress of the iron farm.

There are some small and subtle progress, and the parties may not feel that it is. For a large iron field, it may be profit income of tens of thousands of taels.

"Black and thank the boss!"

Han Laoliu lay on the ground and kowtowed in surprise. He didn't expect that he could go to the store manager at once. Others didn't know that he was still clear about He Yusheng's level. The store manager's income of at least 200 taels a year is equivalent to increasing his current annual income by about twenty times.

"Silver cannot be lost," Zhang Han smiled and said, "According to Wang Debang's example, I will reward the sixth one thousand taels of silver."

"Haha," Cai Jiu was waiting for this sentence, and then smiled and said to Han Laoliu: "Don't get up, keep kowtowing!"

"Get up, get up." Sun Jingting pulled Han Laoliu up from the side and said, "Your Protector doesn't like to receive this gift. Laoliu is old, so don't do this."

Han Laoliu was actually weak all over and couldn't get up even if he told him to get up. If it weren't for Sun Jingting's support, he would probably be embarrassed today.

Han Laoliu thought for a long time and said, "Master, I will do my best to do my best in the future. I will think of some good ways to make the quality of iron higher."

Zhang Han said: "Just do it with your heart."

He patted Han Laoliu on the shoulder again, and Han Laoliu grinned and showed his broken yellow teeth.

After Zhang Han left, Han Laoliu surrounded several floors of people inside and outside. Many people who looked down on him before came to welcome him. Cai Jiu is the big shopkeeper here in the iron court, and there are shopkeepers in each branch. Han Laoliu's technical team is on par with the shopkeepers of the branch. He has the same identity as the general ledger. In the iron court with thousands of people, he belongs to the ten people with the highest status.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) Everyone added awe from their envy and jealousy, and they were particularly careful when talking to Han Laoliu.

Han Laoliu and his family followed him. Han Laoliu's son and daughter-in-law felt a little arrogant. His grandson didn't quarrel about asking for candy, staring at the surroundings in a daze.

"I shouldn't have gambled for a long time!" Looking at the crowd around, listening to the welcome words in his ears, Han Laoliu suddenly thought so.

...

Sun Anle, Li Dayong and Ma Huaxian stood at the door of the Dongshan Association and waited. Around noon, Zhang Han and his party rode their horses to the gate of the Dongshan Association.

This place is very different from when Zhang Han came last time. He built roads and built many houses. Sun Anle was originally very good to the miners in his iron farm. After the profit increased, he also learned from He Yusheng, and his welfare benefits for miners increased greatly.

The entire Lingqiu is similar. These things are all about each other. If there is no change, people will not be retained.

Of course, capital is profit-seeking. Without Zhang Han taking the lead, it is hard to say whether the other players will be willing to pay for it except Sun Anle. If you make more money and save more, you don’t have to give it to others.

"Zhang Dongzhu."

"Mr. Zhang."

"Inspector Zhang."

After Zhang Han dismounted, Sun Anle and others came to see him, and everyone's names were different.

"I'm sorry to ask everyone to wait here for a long time."

Lingqiu’s Iron Industry Chamber of Commerce gathers normally in Lingqiu City. According to Zhang Han’s rules, the chairman and the directors are responsible for daily affairs. Of course, the chairman is Zhang Han, because he is not in Lingqiu normally, and Cai Jiu will perform his duties. The directors are also elected according to their respective strengths. Those who are not strong enough will not come out to offer this ugly.

Everyone also signed an agreement when joining the club. In terms of pricing, wages, sales, and purchasing, all aspects must be subject to the Chamber of Commerce. This Chamber of Commerce is already like a large company with a loose structure. While Zhang Han gave technical assistance to these iron fields, these iron fields had to give up some free power, which was a win-win situation.

The situations of Lingqiu and Tianchengwei are different, and they are even more different from those of the grassland.

Iron smelting and iron mining requires joint cooperation. Coupled with its low status, the iron fields do not have much resistance to unity and division of labor.

Over the past six months, the Iron Industry Chamber of Commerce in Lingqiu has been operating well, and the profits of each company are very considerable. Only He Yusheng has been spending money to expand the scale of the iron farm, buy mines, and build new blast furnaces. When Zhang Han came back to get the financial report, there was still a profit of 70,000 yuan on the books, which shows that each company made a lot of money.

It is profitable, and the tolerance for the chamber of commerce to interfere in its own affairs will certainly increase. If it is not profitable, even if the contract is made, people may have withdrawn from the association long ago.

Today, only the people in front of us gathered here, only a few directors and more members of the chamber of commerce were waiting in Lingqiu. In addition to Zhang Han, this place is the real core member of the chamber of commerce and the central figure who can determine the direction of things.

"Everyone comes into the house to talk." Sun Anle is the landlord. He said to everyone: "It's already afternoon, everyone is hungry, and they are eating and talking, how about it?"

Everyone looked at Zhang Han, and Zhang Han smiled and said, "I am indeed hungry for a long time, but I have something to say first. It's better not to drink before finishing the business."

Zhang Han's self-discipline and liking to abide by the rules have long been deeply rooted in people's hearts, and everyone agreed with a smile.
