One thousand four hundred and ninety-eight, the debut of the steam drainage machine

With this policy guarantee, it will be much smoother for Fuxing members to go to the countryside to do their work in a comprehensive manner.

Young but not immature Revival members found interested people to persuade, and the content of the persuasion was similar.

"To be honest, I think the court has done this matter well and has done everything we should do. I went to the previous three chances of repentance. After going there, there is still a three-year adaptation period. I can't stand it. After three years, I can't stop it. I will return unconditionally after three years.

It is a long journey, but the imperial court spent money to contract food, clothing, housing and transportation. We don’t need to pay a penny. When we go, we will have houses and land. Everything is ready. Just live your current life and you will have almost no need to spend anything.

What did the court want to be honest? It is that everyone can produce grain locally, settle down locally, breed and live, and turn the Western Regions into our Anxi Province and Beiting Province.

After all, it was three or four hundred years since we left the Central Plains. Without us in the deep cultivation of the local area, it would be really difficult to come back to the Western Regions. The Tang people were so regretful back then. They controlled the Western Regions for so long, but they still lost them. What is the reason?

Isn’t there enough people? If there were millions of people in the Western Regions at that time, everyone would work together, who could take the Western Regions away from us? Are you right?"

Such persuasion process can always have some effect, allowing some pioneering and enterprising people to eliminate their fear of staying away from their hometown and their worries about the future, and decide to embark on a new journey of life.

When the Fuxing members went to the countryside to persuade them on a large scale, it was late October of the 11th year of Hongwu. It had been almost three months since the drama troupe launched a national tour in August.

The drama troupe toured the country, and the first play performed was "Thirteen Generals Return to Yumen", which portrayed the stories of the Western Regions and the Central Plains throughout the country, making the Western Regions gradually spread across the country as the troupe advances.

The members of the Fuxing family have done statistics. Any area where the theater troupe has dispatched to perform "The Thirteen Generals Return to Yumen", it will be easier to persuade. The number of people who actively sign up and are willing to settle in the Western Regions is obviously more than the places where the theater troupe has not arrived.

This shows the importance of excellent publicity methods and publicity work.

When Su Yonglin obtained the specific data in early December of the 11th year of Hongwu, he regarded this matter as a typical example and held a state meeting.

At the meeting, he focused on praising the work of the Women's Department of the Revival Society and the Publicity Department of the Revival Society, and made it clear about the importance of publicity work, and encouraged the Women's Department and the Publicity Department to continue to work together to do a good job in publicity.

With the promotional work and the early preparation, by mid-December of December of the 11th year of Hongwu, the number of households counted across the country who were willing to move to Anxi Province and Beiting Province with their families had reached more than 110,000, and the population was about 500,000.

In addition to the mobilization of official personnel, it has been an unexpected success for the entire Western Regions migration policy.

At the beginning, the Ministry of Civil Affairs predicted that the lowest migrant population was only 300,000, and it would probably take a long time for the population to exceed one million to exceed one million.

But now there are more than 500,000, which greatly reduces the time it takes to take for this goal.

Su Yonglin was very willing to believe that as time goes by and the optimization of the living environment in the Western Regions, the population of the Western Regions will continue to increase rather than decrease. At least, the Ming government really wanted to treat the Western Regions as its homeland rather than a jailed area to build and govern.

The Ming Dynasty's determination to operate Central Asia and revitalize the Silk Road on the Land was real. The war in Central Asia came to an end, and construction and development will become the mainstream in the western part of the Ming Dynasty for a long time in the future.

The Ming Congress invested a lot of resources and attention in this direction to revitalize this land trade route belonging to the Ming Dynasty, and maintain this path and revitalize the Western Regions.

At the same time, the border areas in the northeast and southern Ming Dynasty were also changing and were restless.

In the Northeast, the Ming Dynasty's control over Goryeo and the land reform launched in Goryeo entered a critical period. The resistance of Goryeo landlords and powerful people became increasingly fierce, and the Goryeo officials at the central level became increasingly uneasy.

However, their resistance failed one after another. Goryeo was unable to get rid of the control of the Goryeo administrative team under Hu Wei's control. With the assistance of the Liaodong army, it was only a matter of time before Goryeo was completely deconstructed and rebuilt by Ming Dynasty.

After all, Goryeo is a small country, and a small country cannot affect the actions of a giant like the Ming Dynasty.

In the southern region, members of the Champaign Division of the Revival Society are stepping up training for the Champa New Army. They will basically update their situation and Zou Yana's actions to the Ming Dynasty once a month, and will also tell the Ming Dynasty what they know about the Angkor dynasty.

Their report tells how they evade superiors and trained the new army, and informed the Ming side of how they held a complaint meeting in the new army, and how to educate the new army.

Ming Kingdom estimated that at this rate, the new army in Chameng would have the strength to overthrow Zou Yana's regime in the latest year. As for how to plan this process, it still needs to be properly discussed.

Changes in these two regions require time and some driving force to proceed. However, Dali is as safe as Mount Tai. Since assisting the Ming army in defeating the anti-Ming tribes, there has been basically no action.

They were still very respectful to the Ming Dynasty, without any change, and the country was very stable and no unrest occurred, which surprised Su Yonglin a little.

However, this is not important, because the Dali branch of the Revival Society has begun to take root in the rural areas of Dali, looking for the possibility of breakthroughs in the local area, and successfully finding breakthrough points.

What Zhao Yucheng had done in Jiangxi will soon reappear in Dali, and this is also an experiment of the ideal export of the Ming Dynasty to the outside world, and Su Yonglin attaches great importance to this.

Days pass day by day, and there seems to be no change, but changes occur every day.

However, when science and technology are not developed, the changes are relatively small and slow. Once science and technology achieve some breakthrough, this change will appear in front of people more quickly, bringing different emotions of relief or fear to people.

On December 14, 1911, Hongwu, the world's first water pumping working steam engine was sent to Datong for installation and use at Datong Coal Mine.

A underground mine with a depth of about nine meters was severely flooded. When the groundwater flooded, there was almost no time for everyone to retreat. If it weren't for the good luck, seven or eight miners would have drowned and could not be rescued.

The workers at Datong Coal Mine tried their best to drain water using the top-level means of animal power plus pulley sets. The effect was very limited and the cost was very high, so they basically gave up the mine cave.

And now, this drainage utensil, which is said to be very efficient, appears in front of everyone.

Some technicians climbed up and down to install the water pipes, preparing to drain the water into a stream not far from here.

According to technicians, this big guy is called a steam drainer. It is a machine that does not require human and animal power, but only needs to burn coal to pump water.

The workers were very curious. When the steam drainage machine was first operating, more than 200 workers circled several times and stared at the big guy.

They watched the technicians burn coal, watch them operate the machine, watch the machine twitch and make strange noises.

Finally, they saw the pumping pipe behind the machine twisting in a burst, and a large amount of accumulated water was pumped out and then discharged directly into the stream.
