Mr. Zhang said that he wouldn't care about these things, he really didn't care.

What he is now supervising the excavation of iron ore and coal mines, which is extremely critical to the development of the entire foundry branch and even northern Guangdong.

Why was Foshan iron pots able to dominate the world and even sold overseas at that time?!

A large part of this is the iron ore and coal mines produced in northern Guangdong.

Zhang Jingfeng, a Jinshi of Zhengde, wrote the "First Draft of the General Records of Northern Guangdong" when he was an official in northern Guangdong, which read:

"The iron smelting in northern Guangdong is made of iron smelting, which is beneficial to fertilizer and fertilization, but also to be harmful. Fanshao, Hui and others are in Guanshan, and iron ore is produced..."

"There are no-native abducts in the local area on the Annals of the Year. Every year on the autumn harvest, they gathered murderers, hundreds of thousands of groups, crossed the border, and distributed copper from all over the mountains..."

"Chuangcha Zhuzhai, each mountain starts the furnace, at least five or six, and more than one or twenty, and each furnace gathers two or three hundred people..."

"Digging mines in the mountains, inciting iron to profit. The mountain masters benefited from their rents and taxes; the land ghosts, the general armor was good at common practices; the local people benefited from their employment..."

This shows that there are extremely many mines in northern Guangdong, and even civil unrest has erupted many times because of the failure to allow mining.

Those who come here to mine are not good people, almost all local gentry and powerful people.

For example, Wang Ge, who recruited workers to mine iron ore in Madipo, northern Hubei, recorded in history: "There is a vegetation in the Baiyun of Lunbu, and he is good at making profits..."

"Ge is still arbitrary in Huai, just like when he was a sabre and sword, he was a sacred cavalry following..."

So "I'll join the unregulated people to make charcoal in the mountains and buy iron, so I will start a smelting iron and cast iron into ironware and sell it out of the market..."

"The people who use it have their own duties, and they are both kind and powerful, and they all admire them. They have initiated a big deal in a few years..."

Simply put, these iron ore and coal mines have become the money bags for these gentry and powerful people to fill their own pockets.

Even if the official approaches a little, they dare to raise the flag to rebel, and these people are without exception: they all have fame and fortune!

This group of people planned to do this in the Qing Dynasty, thinking that the Qing Dynasty was still accusing them of fame and fortune like the Ming Dynasty.

However, the Qing Dynasty did not play any tricks with you at all. It should be cut off its head and the abdication should be abdication.

After being cut off a lot of heads and a lot of people by the Qing Dynasty, they understood a truth:

It turns out that it’s not that I am so powerful, but that I treated me well back then!

Unfortunately, when they understood this truth, the Ming Dynasty was already tortured to death by them.

Mr. Zhang naturally would not allow such things to happen, so how can we avoid such things to happen?!

The answer is: official large-scale mining enterprises.

Those powerful men must be willing to make money, and most of the miners are "unregular".

That is to say, they are people who have not been registered.

Even if they are beaten and killed by the powerful, the government will not care.

So how could they give them a lot of money? Naturally, they can be stingy.

It is naturally different for Mr. Zhang to open an official business, and the money must be given enough money.

With the assistance of equipment manufactured by the ancient books and the Ordnance Construction Bureau, the mining volume and safety factor are directly much higher.

The mined iron ore is sent to the foundry department for smelting, forging, and then sold.

In terms of cost, they directly crushed these small mines, and they couldn't compete at all.

"The employer is a little familiar with the rules and tools..."

Butler Xiao Zhou followed Mr. Zhang carefully, and hundreds of elite troops of the National Defense Forces were spread around to watch.

There were also Ji Wujun and Ashikari Kyuki, all wearing armor and looking around vigilantly.

They have been like this since they started recruiting dock workers some time ago.

There is no way, Mr. Zhang’s household registration is really too lethal.

What did the officials of the Ministry of Revenue come to northern Guangdong to do?! That must not be a tourist!

The people who were selected were those who had registered victims of the disaster and who had registered the household registration experience of the people in the capital during the Battle of Jiran.

They came here to register their household registration. After summarizing it, they left one copy in Yangcheng, northern Guangdong, and the other copy was sent back to the capital for filing.

However, taking this hand out, the gentry and businessmen in the entire Yangcheng area felt ache.

And this is not only a pain, but it's just a shattering egg!

Because Mr. Zhang was rich, he directly bought the monthly silver for one tael of silver for the entire construction period!

Damn it! This is an absolutely high salary!

After all, in addition to the "four dou of monthly grain", the civilians in northern Guangdong only had one ounce of subsidies given by their owners every year.

This is not the capital, and the price of the capital is probably no longer available.

But here in northern Guangdong, the price is absolutely high!

The working price of the mine is even more awesome, long-term! One ounce of money is required for food and accommodation a month, and it is basically just about one or two taels per year!

It is said that the mine still needs to be evaluated. If you have the ability to evaluate, you can get up to five cents of monthly silver!

When the news spread, countless "unreliable people"'s eyes turned red, and countless sarcastic grievances in their hearts!

The refugees who were hesitant to register their household registration knew the monthly wages, and then started to inquire about how to register without saying a word.

It is actually very miserable to have no household registration. The most important thing is that even if the "black household" dies, it will almost be ignored.

They didn't dare to enter the city easily. Many times they could only sell the items they worked hard outside the city.

But they don’t dare to register their household registration, why?!

Because you have to face the very crazy rule of "force labor" after registering, it is really a matter of bringing your own food to do nothing.

In the long run, there may be some rice and grain, but basically I have searched several layers and found that I can't eat enough to come to them.

Being confiscated once of labor service means that the family has lost a strong labor force, which is a fatal blow to a well-off family.

But who can't love this white silver? Building a dock or digging a mine is all about dying.

After everyone thought about it, they immediately felt extremely cost-effective after calculating the accounts.

The governor Zhang Xuanying and the censor Zhao Lifu and the others were ready to go. When they saw that the matter was announced, they came to the prefectures for meetings without saying a word.

The spirit conveyed at the meeting was very direct, Yangcheng New Wharf, mine, cement factory, casting branch... and so on!

The Imperial Times published this matter in particular, saying:

"The investment goals of the capital, which Mr. Zhang Buzhuan particularly emphasized, are broad in content, and are mutually beneficial to northern Guangdong. It is a century-long plan for the development of northern Guangdong!"

"... We must insist on using the general responsibilities of the governor and the provincial government to implement the matters, and all counties to jointly carry out pressure and consolidate responsibilities at all levels! Do not slack off!"

"At the meeting, the governor, Zhao Censor issued a military order without hesitation!"
Chapter completed!
