"I have heard that Wei is rich, and now it seems that we have seriously underestimated the King of Wei."

Pang Yukun stood beside Xiao Ming, with the shadow of sails and warships flashing in his eyes, revealing a faint layer of worry.

"Not only King Wei, any vassal king will not be as down-to-earth as this king, but we don't have to underestimate ourselves. As long as we are down-to-earth, it's only a matter of time before we can surpass them." Xiao Ming said confidently.

One hundred thousand slaves and three million stones of food were another catalysis for him, enough to make his plan progress quickly.

Pang Yukun opened his mouth, thinking that what he lacked the most now is time, but the words stopped when he spoke. The future was unpredictable, so who could say what?

If God blesses King Qi, it will naturally be smooth sailing in the future.

This time Chen Qi and Chen Wenlong both came here, and there was Zhang Liang. At this time, Zhang Liang said: "These warships are all warships built by the Ding Family Shipbuilding Shop in Jinling City. When my father reborn, we went there to see them. They are indeed larger than our shipbuilding Shop, and there are many craftsmen who are proficient in warship construction."

"Don't be ambitious to others and destroy one's own prestige. The drawings of warships I give you are not weak," said Xiao Ming.

"Your Highness is right." Zhang Liang is still amazed at Xiao Ming's warship drawings, "This time, Your Highness allocates 10,000 slaves to the shipbuilding workshop. Our staff is really enough. I promise to launch five Garen ships this year."

Xiao Ming nodded, "That's good."

When the shipbuilding workshop was restored, Xiao Ming did not provide too much labor to the shipbuilding workshop, but instead gave a large number of slaves to the workshop area. In his opinion, only when the production capacity of the workshop area is improved can the shipbuilding workshop be provided with sufficient spare parts in the future.

Now that 100,000 slaves have entered Qingzhou, he has sufficient labor, so he immediately allocated it to the shipbuilding workshop. During this period, Zhang Liang's development of the Galen ship has basically been completed, and there are technical backbones. The following is the construction stage.

Ten thousand people built five Garen ships a year, and there was basically no problem with the cooperation of the workshop area.

After receiving the first batch of supplies and slaves, Xiao Ming and Zhang Liang went to the shipbuilding workshop. For such a long time, Zhang Liang and others have been restoring the facilities in the shipbuilding workshop, and now they have recovered.

When he arrived at the shipbuilding workshop in the lower reaches of the Tuojiang River, Xiao Ming saw some craftsmen making the keels of the Galen ship, which is the main supporting structure of the Galen ship, similar to the beam and wood function of the house.

Seeing the craftsman running busy on the river bank, Xiao Ming suddenly remembered something, and he said, "I have forgotten something, but our shipbuilding workshop still lacks something?"

"Please make it clear to you," Zhang Liang said in confusion.

Xiao Ming said slowly: "Dry dock."

"Dry the dock?" Zhang Liang was stunned.

Xiao Ming didn't expect Zhang Liang to understand, so he explained that this dry dock is actually a building structure similar to a production workshop.

However, this structure is used to produce sail warships, with three sides closed and one side adjacent to the water. The ship is built in a dry dock and can also be used for future maintenance.

Setting various construction equipment on both sides of the dry dock allows easy construction. Even modern times, dry dock is still an indispensable facility for building ships.

Xiao Ming naturally did not expect to build a modern-level dry dock, but it was simple. He did this to regulate the shipbuilding industry in the Great Yu Kingdom, which could greatly accelerate the production of Galen ships.

The Zhang Liang family has built ships for generations. When he said this concept, he immediately understood it and said excitedly: "Your Highness, if this dry dock is built, it can be standardized and mass-produced Galen ships."

"That's right, the dry docks required for each type of sailing warship are different. Let's do it. When you are free, come to me and I'll teach you some shipbuilding knowledge." Xiao Ming said.

Zhang Liang nodded with an excited expression. Xiao Ming showed him unprecedented shipbuilding technology, which for him was a new page in shipbuilding history.

The shipbuilding workshop in Dayu is actually just a simple shed with some woodworking equipment. Xiao Ming really couldn't get interested in such a shipbuilding workshop.

After a brief look, he left and asked Zhang Liang to study at Bowen Academy. Now he had enough staff and his plans could be implemented, otherwise he would have to delay like the Garen Ship.

When Xiao Ming arrived at the palace, he was not idle, but wrote down the knowledge in his mind and turned it into textbooks after textbook.

These textbooks include mathematics, chemistry, physics, and various technical materials.

He wanted to use these technical materials to build Bowen Academy into the first modern comprehensive institution in the Great Yu Kingdom, providing Qingzhou with a steady stream of talents.

Xiao Ming wrote all these materials in vernacular. Students in the Bowen Academy should not only understand the Dayu language, but also the vernacular. In fact, as long as you can understand the vernacular, traditional Chinese characters are naturally not a problem. Therefore, Xiao Ming mainly teaches the vernacular.

In the next few days, the slaves that King Wei promised to give Xiao Ming arrived one after another. Xiao Ming divided the slaves into 70,000 and gave them to the workshop area, and the remaining 20,000 were given to the mine.

The arrival of 100,000 slaves, and the slaves that Liang Dahai kept selling, the workshop area where he received a lot of labor began to expand under the instructions of Xiao Ming.

First of all, the steel workshop expanded its production scale, and Xiao Ming increased the number of workers in the steel workshop to 30,000, which is already a large steel mill in modern times.

But here, the production capacity formed by the 30,000 people is only equivalent to a small steel mill, but for Xiao Ming, this is enough for the time being.

Most of the remaining 40,000 people were given to the lathe workshop, while the rest were given to the brewing workshop, perfume workshop, cement workshop and other workshops.

After the distribution of 100,000 people, the industrial park was immediately expanded under the leadership of Chen Wenlong, and a large industrial area will slowly stand in the north of Qingzhou.

"Your Highness, these slaves are mixed with each other, and they are sent by the King of Wei. I'm afraid there will inevitably be restless people mixed in." The grand occasion of the 100,000 people in the construction workshop area is very rare.

This time there was a lot of noise, and Pang Yukun, a person who has always been uninterested in the workshop area, has also come.

"I naturally know this." Xiao Ming looked at the slave who was pushing the sand and building the factory building in the cement, and said, "The people from the left and right secret guards have arranged for people to monitor these slaves. Anyone who is restless will be killed to ensure that he cannot leave the workshop area."

Pang Yukun nodded. Xiao Ming's methods became more and more cruel, but this is the quality that a hero should possess. He should be generous to his own people and cruel to his enemies.

"By the way, Your Highness, I have already thought of the location of Bowen Academy. The only place suitable for building Bowen Academy in Qingzhou City is Liuyunfang in the west of the city. There are only a few families in that place, so I can just relocate some money."
