It has been more than half a month since the conquering Changge Fortress, and all the population and materials sent by the fortress and the five Western Frontiers have been in place.
After the establishment of the Ministry of Agriculture, the spring plowing of the new year finally began, which is also Roland's first step in exploring farming techniques.
The serfs saw the dawn of being promoted to free people, and they all worked hard.
The scene of supervisors urging serfs to work with whips are basically extinct on the south bank of the Chishui River. Some serfs found that even if they were lazy, no one would come to control themselves according to the city hall officials who measured them in the fields with strange tools. The lords did not care about the harvest of one or two pieces of fields. The serfs would be farming for themselves in the future, and those who ploughed more would get more.
It’s not that the officials of the Ministry of Agriculture are so excellent that they have fully understood the principle of distribution according to work, but that Roland asked them to keep repeating these contents to the serfs.
In order to strengthen the indoctrination effect and satisfy the prince's own feelings, the banks of the Chishui River were filled with red flags and banners were drawn with slogans such as labor being the only way to get rich, labor being glorious, labor going towards freedom, labor changing destiny, etc.
Of course, no one has raised objections to these measures, for example, Barov was the first to stand up and oppose them.
Your Highness, it is meaningless for you to do this. Most of the serfs are illiterate, so they don’t care what is written on the banner.These people are both ignorant and ignorant, and sometimes the whip is useless, let alone some inexplicable words.
Roland's answer was also very simple, and those banners were not for them to show.
Then why do you still do these things?The minister's assistant's expression seemed quite confusing at the time.
To create a living role model.
He never thought serfs were stupid and intransigent, and their uneducated did not mean they had no thoughts.
No matter how stupid a person is, he will be driven by the sacrificial and interests. This is the nature of human nature, the repeated indoctrination of the Commissioner of the Ministry of Agriculture seems to have little effect, but it will leave a lead in their hearts, like a trickle that will eventually merge into one.
When the first batch of serfs were promoted to free people, when they exchanged harvest crops for money, bought high-quality clothing, exquisite food, and even solid and warm brick houses, the repeated slogans over and over again would turn into reality and be deeply imprinted in their hearts.
As for the banners on the shore, they are for the villagers who have received popular education.
Relying on your own hands to get rid of poverty, becoming a formal member of the border town, and even surpassing yourself as an indigenous person, this is the power of hard work.
Only by comparing can the gap be felt, and only by actively pursuing can the individual's efficiency be maximized.
……
Tietou stood at the entrance of the mine, waiting for a new round of mine departure.
Since he was scalded by high temperature steam during the Demon Moon, he has never dared to stand near this black machine again.
Fortunately, there was a kind Miss Nanava like an angel in Bianfeng Town. Tietou touched her intact cheek and felt very moved.
Fortunately, I suspected that the other party was the devil's minion at that time, which was a blasphemy to her.
After the winter ended, he specifically mentioned two salted fish and a wild boar leg and went to Pine's house to apologize.
What surprised him even more was that although Tigu Pine was a viscount, he did not have the habit of a nobleman who liked to look at people with his nose, and accepted his apology openly.
Tietou felt for the first time that it turned out that the nobles were not all ruthless guys.
Old Tie, a miner covered in ashes ran out of the hole, and the rope was tied.
Well, he turned his head and shouted in the direction of the steam engine, everyone stayed away!Flak, lift up the green pull rod and press the red pull rod!If you do something wrong, I will twist your head off!
Don't worry, Mr. Tie, I will cover it with me!Flak replied loudly.
After sending the nails to join the first army in the town, Tietou changed his personal to operate the steam engine.
In the first few days, Flak often made the order of the pull rods wrong, causing the air supply pipe to explode and he was hit by his fat beat a lot.
Fortunately, His Highness the Prince did not care about this matter. Not only did he send someone to replace the damaged parts, but he also did not fine them. The original Tie Tou had already made plans to be fined for one month's salary.
As the air intake gate opened, the steam engine sprayed out a huge amount of white air, and the main wheel slowly ran, driving the winch and stretched the hemp rope straight.
Everyone cheered me up!Staring at the hemp rope, look carefully!Tietou shouted.
Nowadays, in addition to the steam engine, the mine output method of mine has also changed.
His Highness the Prince ordered the craftsmen to cut the wood into long strips, connect the heads and tails to lay them in the mining area, and then stuff the wood squares under the two strips. At first glance, it looked like a grid made of many wood.
Your Highness calls it a wooden rail transportation system, a very twisted name that doesn't look complicated, but it's paired with a special mine cart, hey!
That's really quick.
Usually, you need to transport ore for three or four days, connect several mine trucks together, and the steam engine can drag it out in one breath.
Tietou has specially observed this kind of four-wheel trailer running on wooden tracks. It is made of iron all over the body, and this one is valuable.
The key to being able to move on narrow wooden strips without falling off is that each small iron wheel on its wheel has an enlarged rim on the inside, which firmly limits the mine cart to the wooden track.
There is a square iron basin on the top of the wheel, with curved grooves in front and back, and can be stringed into a row with hemp rope.
He couldn't help but admire His Royal Highness's intelligence. Such a simple design can make mine transportation so simple.
Before this, dragging these dead ores out of the mine cave is the most time-consuming and labor-intensive job.
However, this system is not perfect. For example, on the fifth day of use, two sections of wooden tracks were crushed, and then several were broken one after another.
Later, His Highness wrapped the tops of all the wooden tracks with a layer of iron sheet before it improved.
In addition, there was a hemp rope breaking accident in the mine cave, and the iron axe still feels scared when thinking about it.
Originally, according to regulations, only four mine trucks were dragged out at a time when the mine was transported out of the hole. On the day of the accident, the miner was greedy and connected all six mine trucks together. As a result, when he was halfway through the pull, the hemp rope that was thick with his arm suddenly broke. The rebounding piece swept a guy standing next to Tietou, and he beat his arm into two pieces, and several ribs were broken.
The mine truck slid down the track, knocking down two people, and crushing the unlucky guy's legs.
Fortunately, Tietou knew what to do when encountering such a thing, so he immediately organized people to transport the injured to Viscount Tigu's residence. As long as there was no death on the spot, Miss Nanava could restore them to their original state.
Old Tie, the car is out!shouted the man staring at the entrance of the cave.
Flak, turn off the steam engine after ten breaths, pay attention to the order!Tietou ordered loudly.
OK!
Four mine cars slowly stopped at the end of the wooden tracks, and he walked over to record the shipment volume and variety.
The stones on the first two trucks are reddish-brown, which is also the most produced thing in the mine.
The third car had yellowish gray and it should be a copper mine. He was stunned when he saw the fourth car. There seemed to be no such stone in the previous record: they were all black-brown and reflected a dull metallic luster in the sun.
It is another unknown mineral species. The iron head shook its head. The passages in the mine cave on the north slope are crisscrossed, and inexplicable things can often be dug out.
He drew a fork on the paper and asked someone to send all the ores to the yard.
As for whether this pile of black stones will be sent into the furnace, it has nothing to do with him.
