Chapter 519 Industrial wave!

It took two and a half hours for the blacksmith of Jin civilization to make a hoe by making a blacksmith.

According to the "ding ding dangdang" for 10 hours a day, there are only four hoes for productivity.

After working for 12 hours, there are only less than five.

Moreover, the quality of this hoe is not very good, the steel has a high carbon content and is prone to rust.

A sword on the battlefield requires thousands of hits before it can slowly take shape, and one can't be made in one or two days.

By making artificial irons, the best knives, it’s not an exaggeration to create one in a month!

But through industrialization, pouring these molten steel into the mold will make it easy to produce 1,000 hoes a day, and 10,000 hoes! And it can also quickly manufacture steel pipes, screws and other parts through molds. If we follow the previous craftsmen... we will not be able to produce a steel pipe a year.

"Okay! OK!" The old emperor took a heavy breath, and the wrinkles on his face shook because of his rich expression.

It has been a long time since he was so happy.

Shenlong's physical condition has improved significantly; and the degree of industrialization of Jin civilization is also changing with each passing day, how could he not be happy!

The ministers around were also smiling, including the opposition at the beginning, all of them showed smiles.

"Oh, the gap is too big... In the future, we can produce armor in large quantities and helmets like technological civilization." General Zhao Yi couldn't help but sigh and touched the dragon scale armor on his body. His dragon scale armor was traded out, and now he can only wear dragon scale armor.

But ordinary soldiers don’t even have dragon scale armor. If they can get a set of iron armor, their chances of survival in war should be greatly increased.

Especially for things like helmets, they have quite high technical content. They can't just put a pot lid on their heads and can be regarded as a helmet.

"Mr. Zhao, the fitter workbench is really useful... Can you buy some more?" A minister of the Ministry of Works also said with a laugh.

The various machines provided by Yunhai can drill, polish, and polish. They are really many times better than the previous tools. The craftsmen can't put them down. There are still many skilled craftsmen in Jin civilization. Once they use Yunhai tools, they will become disgusted with the previous tools like wives.

After all, human progress is largely reflected in tools.

"Oh, this is all the aid for this batch. Lord Zhang, there are a lot of it. We can't be too greedy. If you want it, you have to buy it." Zhao Yi shook his head and said.

The minister in charge of agriculture was also thinking in his mind how many hoes and plows could these steel be turned into.

The gap between good and bad agricultural tools is too big for agricultural production. How many troubles will be saved in the future!

Some ministers of the Ministry of Works are also sighing that there is finally enough steel to build a steam locomotive... How great would it be if steam locomotives were used instead of traditional plowing oxen!

There are also spinning machines and other various machines that require steel.

Most blacksmiths are going to be unemployed, and in the wave of industrialization, they no longer need so many blacksmiths. The craftsmen who build kitchen knives and slabs are all unemployed.

Only some advanced craftsmen who are skilled in processing "dragon scales" and "dragon scales" can survive.

However... it is a good thing to a certain extent. According to Yunhai, this is called...industrial upgrading!

If a civilization wants to develop, it must upgrade its industries. It is meaningless to keep the original one acre and three parts of the land.

The eliminated blacksmiths have to find ways to transform into workers, and more advanced positions will replace the original positions.

Another bigger point is the system level changes!

The feudal system that was originally "family and the world" was difficult to adapt to the increasingly higher productivity. No matter how smart the emperor was, it was difficult for him to manage all aspects of social production.

If a civilization wants to develop, it must accumulate capital and have internal competition. The reason why capitalism has remained until now is because it conforms to human nature to a certain extent.

Therefore, while the productivity of the Great Jin Empire gradually developed, it also had to choose the road ahead...

Of course, these issues don’t need to be considered too much for the time being, and it will take decades to come.

Standing in the crowd, there were more than a dozen engineers sent by the Yunhai. They were also smiling. After completing the task, they were finally able to return to the base camp for a rest. Jin Civilization was very polite to them, but this place where birds do not shit, there were no entertainment products, and nothing particularly delicious, so they simply faded out of their mouths.

There are also some linguists and reporters watching and taking photos. The reporters of Yunhai Daily were excited to die. This is big news, big news!

To be honest, this kind of aid is actually not much different from the younger brother, and it can fully satisfy the people's growing sense of pride.

Professor Li Weiyi is one of the diplomatic representatives and language representatives.

It has been a whole week since he came here to learn the language of Jin civilization. In fact, these translation experts have studied for more than ten days through black Shasha machine translation in advance, so the learning progress is much faster than expected. They can simply talk to these Jin people and understand some less complicated languages.

Professor Li Weiyi bowed and said in local language: "Dear Mr. Zhao, the first ton of steel has been successfully smelted. You have also seen that as long as the process is compliant, this blast furnace can be used normally, and there is no major problem."

"No problem, indeed no problem." The old emperor nodded hurriedly.

"According to the original agreement, the ownership of this iron-smelting blast furnace belongs to Jin State, and we will not impose any restrictions. It is yours."

"You have to do all the work yourself. However, I suggest that the initial smelting amount can be smaller and some work experience can be accumulated. Although the smelting of steel is still smooth in the hands of our workers, the difference is quite big."

The old emperor's smile stopped, but he knew in his heart that it was impossible to always let the workers of Yunhai help smel iron... There is no such good thing in the world.

As for whether one can make such good steel by smelting iron by oneself, that is another matter.

Professor Li paused and said, "Next, according to the original agreement, we will provide assistance in the power and basic chemical industry... Our Yunhai civilization is a scientific and technological civilization that abides by the contract. You don't have to worry about this."

"We always say and do it, and we will not regret it."

The old emperor's surname is Zhao, but the citizen of Yunhai's name naturally could not call him "Your Majesty", so he simply called him "Mr. Zhao".

When he heard that the Yunhaihao kept his promise, he naturally smiled happily and kept saying "Okay".

The ministers around, whether radical or conservative, were thinking about how to use this iron-smelting blast furnace to do more...

Its productivity is very high, higher than that of all the blacksmiths in the Jin civilization. However, the consumption of resources is also huge. They are in Yanghe, coal, iron ore and other resources that cannot be transformed out of thin air. If they buy at Yunhai, there will be no enough bargaining chips...

This is also a worry in happiness.

"Fortunately, the New World is coming soon, and you should be able to find iron ore, coal mines, and dig some resources."

However, just when everyone was thinking hard, Professor Li changed his tone and said, "However, we must tell you that the two contents of electricity and chemistry are relatively dangerous and require more knowledge. You have also seen that iron smelting is also very knowledgeable. If you practice land well, the quality of steel is good. If you do not practice well, the entire boiler is scrap steel."

"Steels with high carbon content will rust faster..."

Li Weiyi said again: "This is especially true for electricity and chemistry, and the requirements for professionalism are greatly enhanced. Therefore, if you really want to learn, you must have a certain number of people to come to us and receive professional training. This project cannot be completed in a short period of time, and may take several years, or even more than ten years."

As long as you follow the process, these uneducated Jin people can barely master the matter of iron smelting.

The use of this small blast furnace is not too complicated. Even if these people are not educated, they are always afraid of high temperatures and cannot jump into the stove and burn themselves to death.

But electricity is silent, invisible or touchable.

I accidentally electrocuted myself. Without professional study, I could not master the subject of electricity.

The old emperor nodded. They owned generators and incandescent lamps. When connecting wires, several people had been electrocuted.

So, they knew that electricity was a good thing, which could shine and heat, but they were not careless and would die if they were not careful.

This is even more true in chemistry. If the operation in the chemical factory is not properly done, it may not only poison oneself, but also involve everyone around it and poison a large number of people.

With a responsible attitude, providing assistance to these two contents requires training.

Following Li Weiyi's explanation, the people of Jin civilization nodded in a hurry.

"Your Majesty, Professor Li... is saying."

“It does…need training.”

While these factories bring danger, they naturally have huge benefits. As long as you master electricity, it is equivalent to skipping the steam era and entering the electrical era!

Only by mastering chemistry can you produce fertilizers, gunpowder, paints, plastics, drugs, and other large amounts of materials. If you don’t know chemistry, you can hardly do anything.

The old emperor pondered for a while and said a few words to the people under his command.

After a while, several children of nobles who seemed to be smart, plus some young people who had read books and knew their words came to the scene with great enthusiasm.
