In essence, all this changes lie in human resources.

Jibei was originally just a barren land, but now it has become a thoroughfare in the world. Since it is a thoroughfare, there are business opportunities. So the goods from all over the world gather here. But gradually, merchants found that if they transport goods from all over the country to sell, it would be better to produce them here directly. Production requires people and skilled people. The more people produce, the more people will produce, the more people will be worthwhile. The original labor that was worthless began to rise. Even if many people still poured into Jibei every year, the manpower was still insufficient.

In this way, some merchants who could make money by exploiting manpower began to have to try new methods of production, while others tried and succeeded, and made huge profits. So, everyone rushed forward and used machinery, which became a new thing.

Then, a huge market emerged. Production machinery, or improving machinery, has become a huge profit, which forced many craftsmen to start crazily exploring the principles of machinery and starting to try to improve production processes over and over again, so as to make huge profits. In Jibei, many schools have been transformed into engineering schools. The books in Feiyufeng Library are constantly printed and become textbooks. Many people are eager for this engineering school.

It’s not that people have any disgust with studying sages and scholars, but people are real. After all, the chance of becoming a talented person is not high. After studying for more than ten years, there are many people who are not even a scholar in the end. However, after studying in engineering schools, it is another matter. They send their children and study for a few years. Although it is impossible for carp to jump into the dragon gate, they can become a high-level craftsman. Others work hard to earn two or three taels of silver in a month, but others can easily get eight or nine taels of silver.

This is the most realistic portrayal.

In the past... even with the subsidies given by Chen Kaizhi, Jiang Xueshi still had to persuade people to send their children to study, because for many people, even if their children read, they might not have any future. If the Four Books and Five Classics cannot pass the exam for scholars, they will not be able to make a living.

But now, engineering schools are emerging everywhere, and there is no need to persuade people to study. Even if the tuition fee is not low, countless people are flocking to it. As the saying goes, sharpening a knife will not delay chopping wood. Everyone is not stupid. If you spend a sum of money, you will be more promising than those who do not study in the future.

More and more senior craftsmen like these have begun to be in Jinbei. Through the theory of Feiyu Peak, some outstanding people have begun to innovate on this theory. Although more people are mediocre, they have combined these theories and applied them to many production activities, so that many mechanical workshops have sprung up like bamboo shoots after a rain. Various latest windmills, water wheels, and even... are a machine on the principle of steam engines written by Chen Kaizhi.

Chen Kaizhi was most concerned about this. He immediately said: "If we build a ship, not to mention other things, just say that the wood required for sea ships is very difficult. It needs to be processed and dried for several years. Moreover, even if such a ship goes out of the sea, it is at most comparable to the Yang family's ships. This Flang machine is indeed perfect. Flang machine... Has Mr. Yang heard of it? I have received some secret comments from my personal army. They are different from ours. There is a Mediterranean Sea on the edge of the land. This Mediterranean Sea is almost everywhere, blocking most of the sea breezes, making it unlike ours. It is also vast, but there are countless dangers and stormy waves. Rather than saying that it is

The sea, it might be said that it is a very large lake, which has created great conditions for their shipping, so that they have been transporting by sea since thousands of years ago. The shipbuilding industry is particularly developed. Once the shipping is developed, countries have focused on building naval troops to attack each other for war. For them, water war is even the key to war. So countries have done their best to constantly update the strength of ships and continuously improve the attack, protection and speed of ships. The Yang family stood on the shoulders of the Folang Jimen and created the Yang family's fleet, which can cross countless seas, which shows that they already have the ability to have a long-distance ocean and face countless dangers at sea. It can be seen that these ships have great combat power."

"The real power of the Yang family is that they can communicate with countries around the world, gain the strengths of each country, and ultimately strengthen themselves. The Japanese swords are powerful, so they use Japanese swords and the ships made by Folang are powerful, so they use Folang machine ships as the model to transform Folang machine ships. This is an unmatchable advantage for me, Da Chen."

"But..." Chen Kaizhi calmed down: "I still want to try it with them. There are 70 million treasurys of silver in my treasury. These silvers are the profits of my workshop. From today on, I will take out all the 70 million twelve silver patterns, and set up a shipbuilding bureau in Jibei to recruit skilled craftsmen from all over the world to learn all the advanced skills of the world. I will build... an iron armored ship!"

Armored ship...

Yang Biao was stunned.

If the iron armor was piled on the sea, wouldn’t it be...will it sink?

He could not understand Chen Kaizhi's new word.

But Chen Kaizhi knew that there were many technical difficulties to overcome in the manufacturing process of the iron armored ship. However, since the steam engine has appeared, the power problem has been temporarily solved. After the steam engine was moved to the ship, this problem was solved. For other problems, countless craftsmen can be summoned to find ways to solve them. As long as there is enough money and money, and gather the most powerful brain in the world, everything... can be solved easily. The others are just a matter of time.

What's more, such a huge project in this era is like the Manhattan project in later generations. Countless people gather together to solve technical problems. These technologies will eventually be fed back to the workshops of various companies. In the end, it will be of great benefit to the future of Jibei.

Seventy million taels of silver...

Yang Biao felt bleeding when he heard this.

However, it is obvious that Chen Kaizhi did not use the treasury and did not directly embezzle it from the Jibei Money House. This is Chen Kaizhi's private money. People are willing to take it, so there seems to be nothing to say.

"In addition, this money will be used to build a new camp of 3,000 naval masters, select scholars who can read and write, and practice. I hope that a result can be achieved as soon as possible."

"I'll do this... I'll do it myself. The navy's quota will all give it to the identity of the personal army. If you want to recruit, you have to recruit elite troops."

Yang Biao had nodded: "If Your Majesty has any needs, I will definitely support you with all my might."

Chen Kaizhi held his hands behind his back and stared at the sea surface. On the sea surface, the mist had dissipated, and a red sun rose from the sea level. Chen Kaizhi only curled his lips slightly and couldn't help but smile.

But at this time, a fast horse had arrived not far from the harbor, which had been defended by the imperial guards. He immediately quickly took out the Jinyiwei waist card on his waist, and then was led to the beach by the imperial guards.

"Your Majesty, report urgently."

Chen Kaizhi looked back and looked at the dusty Jinyiwei Lishi: "What's the matter?"

Li Shi said: "The news has been reported in the Northern Yan State, and the Emperor of Northern Yan has come south to Jibei. After the news came out, except for Xiliang and Shu Kingdom, all countries have reported news. The Emperor of Yue is also preparing to set off. The Crown Prince of Chu, Xiang Wen, also came quickly... As for Shu Kingdom, only the envoys stationed in Dachen came to Jibei from Luoyang."

Chen Kaizhi couldn't help but be a little surprised.

The emperor of Northern Yan has really come.

This guy really gives Uncle Fang a face and is very friendly.

As for Yue Kingdom, I don’t know if the Northern Yan Emperor set an example, or because of Mr. Fang, even the Chu Kingdom was said to have grown old and sent a crown prince, which shows sincerity. Xiliang Kingdom obviously opposed this alliance. It was ignored and Shu Kingdom seemed much neglected.

Chen Kaizhi nodded: "Jibei must be prepared, never be neglected, and the distinguished guests."

The news of the alliance has spread far away, but for the people of Jibei, they clearly felt that the number of guards and servants on the street was increasing, and the atmosphere was a little tense. Even officials of the Ministry of Rites and Hanlin officials from Luoyang had flocked to him. Everyone knew that this would be a grand event, but most people were not infected by this atmosphere. After all, for the people of Jibei, even if the king of heaven comes, they still have to do business and the work in the workshop is still available. Unlike the people of Luoyang, they care more about the "fly profit" in front of them, so they are still peaceful.

A large number of officials from the Ministry of Rites have begun to appear in the borders of Dachen. They are concierge officials responsible for welcoming the sages of various countries on the borders. In Jibei, the original yamen has now been decorated. There are no other palaces here, and there is no welcome hotel for the Honglu Temple. Therefore, in order to entertain, some yamen have to borrow.

Chen Kaizhi threw all the welcome to the officials. Mr. Yan was the main person in charge of the matter, but he spent his thoughts on the shipbuilding bureau.

The new Shipbuilding Bureau has posted a notice. Soon, on the outskirts of the harbor, it quickly began to plan land and break ground. In Jibei, as long as you can afford silver, anything can be solved without any artificial delay. Compared with the welcoming guest, the Shipbuilding Bureau's notice shocked the entire Jibei.
