Water Margin: I, Wang Lun, will have many children and many blessings in Liangshan.

After hearing Wang Lun's words, Meng Kang and Tang Long also looked at each other and smiled.

Meng Kang took out a thick document from his arms and said with a smile:"Master, this is the plan of our construction department."……"

"Good guys, you guys move really fast."

Wang Lun was actually quite moved in his heart.

The treatment of the Construction Department was much better than that of other departments.

Whether it was the powerful Military Command Department or the Military Administration Department, the Security Department, which was feared by the people, the Branch Department, which was responsible for collecting expenditures and collecting taxes, and Or the Munitions Department, which the generals in the army strive to please, or the Military Justice Department, which they avoid, the Farming Department, which controls tens of millions of acres of fertile land, and the Trade Department, which does prosperous business... All departments are very important. But the most important thing is undoubtedly the Construction Department!

From the soldiers' armor, weapons, bows, crossbows, water camp warships, and the newly emerged artillery, these are all the responsibility of the Construction Department, and they are also the most important. Important thing.

The blast furnaces in front of you are just the tip of the iceberg.

Just the iron workshops can’t be seen beyond the blast furnaces.

There are over a hundred fine iron workshops and steelmaking workshops with over a thousand craftsmen.

There are also There are over a thousand tool-making workshops and thousands of people.

The Liangshan Army will soon expand to about 150,000 people, with 120,000 to 120,000 infantry and cavalry, local garrison troops of about 30,000 people, and more than 10,000 people. Guardsmen of the Human Security Department, and even officials and other public officials are required to wear knives or swords.

Knives and swords are not toys, and the process of making them is very complicated.

For example, a lance is said to be a gun, but the head of the gun is like a dagger. The length of beryllium.

From the shape to the blade length, over 10,000 of them must be exactly the same. The edge, blade, ridge, hoop, sleeve, and compilation must be carefully polished, and the counterweights must be coordinated. The beryllium head, barrel, and sleeve The barrel, as well as the gun compilation, all need to work together flawlessly. This is a good lance! The gun barrel must be made of the best tough wood, carefully sanded, dried, and polished before it can be used."Six"40"

A long lance will take at least several months to complete, which is quite trouble-free. The ordinary horse pole used by the cavalry during the Sui and Tang Dynasties would take half a year to a year. The top-grade goods used by the generals would only require a pole. It will take three years to complete! The reason why the spear pole is difficult to make is because the spears used by infantry are all hard poles, which can be polished smooth and straight.

Both the lance and the spear pole need to use soft poles to prevent vibration when thrusting. Injury or even breaking the knight's own wrist, so a soft pole is needed. European knights use another idea. The long pole will automatically break when stabbing, thus protecting the knight himself.

This can only be done in small-scale riding battles, once It’s not scary to scrap dozens or hundreds of riding poles.

If it’s China, cavalry battles involving tens of thousands of people are frequent, and tens of thousands of lances can be cut off at a time... The cost is too high, and there are no reserves of hundreds of thousands. If you don't use a pole or a lance, this war will be unwinnable.

The manufacturing process of soft poles is extremely complicated. First, you need to take the trunk of the best tough wood and peel it into poles of even thickness, and then repeatedly soak the fine poles in oil. When it is no longer deformed, take it out to dry, then glue it with high-quality glue, wrap the outer layer with hemp rope, wait for the hemp rope to dry, and finally apply raw lacquer and wrap it with Gebu to make a high-quality straw. Rod.

The whole process for a high-quality horse spear takes nearly three years, and the success rate is only 40%. Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that a good horse spear is worth thousands of gold. It can be passed down as a heirloom passed down from generation to generation. It is a pity that it cannot be preserved......

For a warrior like Yuchi Gong who is famous for his horse weapon, his horse weapon must be of the highest quality. Unfortunately, this kind of weapon cannot be preserved for a long time. Even if it survives, only the head of the horse will be left, and the pole will definitely not be preserved..

The craftsmanship of the lance made by the builder is not as complicated as that of the horse, but the basic idea is the same.

The pole should be soft and flexible, and every component is crafted with precision.

With the blessing of"Tiangong", Liangshan's long cavalry, long rifles, long axes, daggers, ring-headed knives, shields, daggers, daggers, heavy crossbows, divine arm bows, foot bows, and riding crossbows are all first-rate. Their high-quality goods are not inferior to those of officers and soldiers at all, or even better.

The 150,000-strong army of the Tenth Festival came with great momentum. Firstly, they were superior in numbers. Secondly, based on the experience of the imperial court, the equipment of the officers and soldiers must be better than that of the rebel army. This is a reflection of the national strength, reserves, and heritage.

As a result... it was only after the fight that I realized that the Liangshan Army's equipment was much better than that of the officers and soldiers!

The two are completely different.

The large number of captured armors and weapons are really looked down upon here in Liangshan, and most of them have to be remade.

That is to say, Liangshan is short of iron, otherwise it would be troublesome to reheat it!

In terms of weapons alone, the status of the Construction Department is irreplaceable.

What's more, there are also civil utensils, a large number of fine iron farm tools, horseshoes and other items that need to be built by the Construction Department.

Waterwheels for farmland, windmills, carriages for civilian use... and various mirrors, glassware, lighters and other items for foreign trade.

Of course, there are also large areas of salt fields, which are also inexhaustible gold mines in Liangshan.

As well as the soap that had just come out, and the water-powered spinning machine that was being developed.

The role of the Construction Department is also growing.

Of course, Meng Kang and others also hope to open the mine as soon as possible. After all, the more things happen, the higher the status of the Construction Department will be, and the more benefits they will get.

In addition... they also have inside gossip.

The Department of Transportation will soon be established to be responsible for bridge construction, road construction, road maintenance and other matters, including public passenger use and logistics, all of which will be managed by the Department of Transportation.

The other is the Mining Department, which only deals with mining.

In this way, it is equivalent to decentralizing a lot of the powers of the Construction Department.

Although I feel relaxed, I am also a little anxious. I want to do these things in advance before the establishment of the new company, or at least straighten it out before handing it over.

Wang Lun was really pleased!

That's what a group does when it's on its way up.

Everyone wants to do something and is not afraid of hardships.

Even fame and fortune are not too fussy.

I just want the group to keep moving forward.

This kind of spirit is rare.

It is true that when time comes, heaven and earth all bring their strength, but heroes are not free when they are brought.

The vigorous development and upward momentum at the beginning, and the desperate struggle of several tragic heroes at the end of the world. Comparing the two makes people feel the existence and demise of"momentum" even more.

"You have done well in the early days. The Yexian Gold Mine has had mines there since the Spring and Autumn Period, but the scale is not large now, but it is confirmed that the reserves are large. You can continue."

In later generations, Shandong's gold reserves accounted for a quarter of the entire China.

The gold reserves of Zhaoyuan and another county accounted for 90% of Shandong's gold reserves.

China is not a big gold mining country. Zhaoyuan is now within the territory of Liangshan, only It can be said that there is no other explanation.

Although there was a lot of coins in the Song Dynasty, there were not many copper reserves in China. Therefore, from the end of the Northern Song Dynasty to the Southern Song Dynasty, there were many and mixed coins, and many of them were of extremely poor quality. Iron coins.

The quality of iron coins is poor and small, so they are far less valuable than copper coins.

This is also the reason why the Southern Song Dynasty’s 120 million yuan income will shrink. At that time, small iron coins will be the main ones.

As for gold and silver This kind of precious metal, China once had no shortage, but it was not much.

After the consumption in the Han Dynasty, the gold reserves were greatly reduced.

People in the Song Dynasty started mining gold at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, mainly in Zhaoyuan, and it would have been faster if Liangshan had not taken it.

Silver is a There were probably hundreds of thousands of taels per year, and most of them were handed over to the Liao Kingdom.

According to the market price, one tael of silver could be exchanged for one tael at first, but later it increased to two taels or four taels.

Even if it was one to four, there were not many people. Will exchange silver for copper coins or iron coins.

The latter is easy to get, the former is rare.

As for gold, it is even more rare. The reserves are small and the excavation is less.

The gold reserves of the Ming Dynasty are already small enough, and the Song Dynasty is not as good as the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

With gold Scarcity and preciousness, one to forty or even fifty or sixty are normal.

The mines in Zhaoyuan are not excavated too much now, unlike thousands of years later, when more than 2,000 mines will be scattered all over the mines, and the superficial gold reserves will be basically hollowed out..

But after the Zhaoyuan Gold brand was built, gold was melted into gold, and Zhaoyuan produced more than one million taels of gold every year.

Now...

Wang Lun estimated that in 1978, Zhaoyuan's record was gold mining eleven Ten thousand taels.

That was the number after a large number of shallow vein mines were dug out.

But there were a lot of machines in mining at that time, and the efficiency was definitely much higher than that of the ancients. If the two are offset, it is estimated that in the first few years, tens of thousands taels a year could still be done. Arrived.

This income is not low, at least over one million yuan.

Looking at the excited faces of everyone, Wang Lun smiled and said:"You are all eager to do things for Liangshan. This is excellent, but You must pay attention to safety. If the mine collapses, not only one or two people may die, so you must be careful! Wang

Lun gave an instruction, and then said:"There are also a few things I told you, which are also extremely important. The construction department should not neglect them." Meng

Kang, Tang Long and others all laughed and said,"Don't worry, Mr. Master, we will never dare to neglect what you have told us.""

"That's good."

Farmland, water conservancy, transportation, construction, Wang Lun has been looking around in the past few days, and he feels quite satisfied in his heart.

When he got on his horse, smoke and dust billowed not far away.

Even closer, there was a cavalryman in red robes. He was rushing over at high speed.

This was the postman of the Liangshan Army, responsible for delivering messages.

Meng Kang was not a fool, so he smiled and said:"Master, it seems that the peace negotiation has been concluded."(To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Wang Lun smiled and said:"Not necessarily, it may be that the emperor has gone crazy. He wants to fight us to the end even if he doesn't want the 100,000 troops and Jiujiedu.……"

"Haha, Mr. Zhao shouldn’t be so stupid, right?"

"I heard that he has good calligraphy and painting, so he must not be an idiot!"

In Liangshan, especially those in high positions, there is no good word to say about Huizong.

In the past, everyone was against corrupt officials rather than the emperor, but now, they are full of contempt for Zhao Ji.

Some high-ranking nobles opened the veil he was wearing The mysterious coat, the content inside may be much more unbearable than ordinary people.

Zhao Ji has never been trained by the emperor, and he is an idle prince. If he is not the emperor, he will be an ordinary prince. His good words will be good. Paintings can be passed down through the ages and leave a good reputation. When an emperor becomes an artist, it is the tragedy of the emperor himself and the tragedy of the people under his rule. Zhao Ji is not as good as Zhu Youxiao. Emperor Tianqi appointed Wei Zhongxian, who liked carpentry, but Apocalypse himself had received the emperor's education and had an emperor's mind. He controlled nine thousand years as if he were a slave, and all arrangements were in place. Except for the Donglin Party's misfortune, during Apocalypse's years, everything was stable internally and externally. If Apocalypse hadn't suddenly collapsed and passed away , it is possible that the Ming Empire could survive the last few decades of the Little Ice Age... it is also destiny.

Sometimes, it is hard to say whether heroes create the situation, or the situation creates the hero.

"Big boss!"

The cavalrymen performed a military salute in the distance, but did not dismount, but only slowed down their horses slightly.

"The Song Dynasty court agreed to a peace treaty with us, and will soon send copper coins, refined iron, and medicinal materials to replace us!"[]

The messenger kept it simple, which was also the rule. He first summarized the contents of the official document in the simplest words.

Then he took out the official document, which was sent by the Military Commander.

Wang Lun unfolded his eyebrows and stretched them out.

As expected, the court did not bargain and agreed to all the conditions.

"Congratulations to the boss!"

"A great victory over the imperial court and Shijiedu!"

"Originally we were probably going to let him go, but now we have made a huge profit, haha!"

Meng Kang, Tang Long and others are also smiling. Of course they are happy.

The medicinal materials belong to the Department of Health and Welfare and have nothing to do with the Department of Construction.

But the million kilograms of fine iron all belong to the Department of Construction. It is like adding more power to a tiger. It can produce a large number of goods within a few months. Fine iron and point steel weapons were distributed to the Liangshan Army, lest those military leaders see him and insist on holding on to them, asking for armor and weapons, which would make Meng Kang and others very noisy.

……

Wang Lun then turned back to the Chinese army camp.

Along the way, many people and officials from various departments who saw Wang Lun saluted with great respect.

After this battle, Liangshan's position became more stable.

Even if Wang Lun is willing, he can recruit him at any time.

The imperial court has always been like this.

Those who are easy to fight will be killed easily.

Those who are difficult to fight will naturally be recruited if they can be recruited.

If Wang Lun agrees to recruit troops, a military governor will not be able to escape.

Today's Liangshan is not Song Jiang's Liangshan. Song Jiang fought hard and relied on the advantage of Liangshan's land to withstand the imperial conquests, but he was not qualified enough to recruit troops. He had to go to Kaifeng and actively ask for troops to be recruited.

That's really mean.

Liangshan now has more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, and in the land of twelve states, the qualifications for recruitment are not only sufficient but also far beyond. Song Jiang is the general manager of the soldiers and horses of the Chuzhou pacification envoy. Later generations went on to say that he was a third-grade official. This That's nonsense.

The official positions in the Song Dynasty were determined by special military ranks, which controlled everything. The military and horse supervisors themselves had no rank.

The rank of a military general depends on the rank of his salary.

Song Jiang was a seventh-grade military officer, a military envoy under Hengban, the third among the eight ranks, and a high-ranking military attache under Taiwei and Hengban.

Don't look at only the seventh rank, the status of the Song Dynasty military attache's seventh rank is also enough.

It's just that Song Jiang has been tossing and turning, just to be the pacifier and commander of Sanzhou. He is only a seventh-level martial artist, so he is really speechless.

As for the ordinary brothers, except for a group of 0.2 lowered generals with high status, the rest, regardless of Tiangang or Disha, are just"langs" and little military attachés of the eighth or ninth rank.

Now, Wang Lun must be at least a Taiwei and Jiedu.

Many of the generals under his command must also be hengban or envoys of various departments.

Liangshan under Song Jiang is simply incomparable.

It's just that Wang Lun has no intention of recruiting peace, and the officials and people along the way also know that the Lord of Liangshan has no intention of recruiting peace, and he still cares about this large territory.

That's how people can be happy and feel at ease

……

Amidst the cheers, Wang Lun, who was wearing white robes and white horses, returned to the camp.

The big ticket brothers came forward.

Everyone is overjoyed

"Congratulations to the boss, the court agreed to the terms of exchange, and supplies began to arrive in two or three days."

Li Ying feels a bit like a big boss when he promotes military commanders, but sometimes he is unable to do what he wants.

Liangshan is too big now.

Not to mention the army, there are already tens of thousands of officials and subordinates in various departments.

Just one construction department employee It’s almost over 10,000.

Li Ying is responsible for military orders and civil affairs. Even if some of the responsibilities are assigned to the Military and Political Department, it still feels a little inadequate.

"The court is so generous, so let’s not be stingy. Wang

Lun thought for a while and smiled:"Let the previous prisoners go back first. There are tens of thousands of people, eating and drinking from me every day!" Let them go slowly, a few thousand a day. After a few days, when the supplies are received, they will be released faster. When all the supplies are received, the tens of thousands of people in the camp will also be released."

"What about identifying guilty persons?"

"To be executed in public during the handover."

Wang Lun's expression became stern when he mentioned those rebel soldiers who had harmed the people, burned, killed, looted and insulted women.

Everyone was also awe-inspiring.

They all say that the master is benevolent, but it depends on who is right.

For those damned masters, Never begrudge swords and guns!.
