Chapter 673 Prepare Both Hands(2/2)
It seems that this is better than being idle. At least now, Tang Yin doesn't have much aging. It's hard to imagine that this is an old guy who has more than a year left to live and is about to die.
In Zhu Hao's eyes, the butterfly effect he created had the greatest impact on Tang Yin. The cause of Tang Yin's death in history was mostly due to poverty. He very much hoped that through his own efforts, Tang Yin could survive.
With Liu Chun's example, Zhu Hao is also trying his best to make some changes.
Zhu Haodao: "Now the coal produced in the mines is increasing day by day, which is meeting the needs of the people in the capital for heating and cooking. However, this is not enough. I hope to produce more steel. The output of the Xishan Iron Works is obviously insufficient. We rely solely on the existing iron mines in the capital."
It is very difficult to satisfy the demand if it is supplied by the factory or transported from other places.”
Tang Yin looked slightly nervous: "What do you mean by your words, do you want me to open an iron ore? Oh, aren't you making things difficult for me, an old man like me? No, no! Don't come to me, I won't agree!"
"No, I'm going to let Mr. Gongsun go this time. He didn't make a name for himself in the Imperial College, and he can't do much if he stays in the capital. Otherwise, let him go around the capital..." Zhu Hao said with a smile.
"I'm afraid he won't be able to do it."
Although they were both civil servants, Tang Yin looked down on Gongsun Yi from the bottom of his heart.
Zhu Hao smiled and said, "Then... Sir, come up by yourself?"
Tang Yin immediately changed his tune: "It's okay even if it doesn't work. Young Gongsun wants to be an official, so this is the best training for him! Otherwise... you can throw the young Sun family over too."
"Which Sun family? My father-in-law's family?"
Zhu Hao asked.
Tang Yin curled his lips and said, "Don't pretend to be confused with me. You can't control the people in the Shangshu family... You can only control your cheap apprentice. He won't be famous if he stays in the capital anyway."
Zhu Hao said: "This time I plan to let the Bao family go together... I have chosen a place, just east of the capital, not far from Shanhaiguan. Previously, Dongzhu Su sent people to survey the terrain, and there are many iron and steel structures nearby.
Mine, but the output is very small. This time we use new machinery and exploration methods to try to win it in one fell swoop."
"You're not going?"
Tang Yin looked at Zhu Hao.
Obviously, in Tang Yin's view, it would be difficult to get something done without the participation of Zhu Hao, a "magic stick".
Just like the Xishan coal mines, most of them were explored by Zhu Hao.
Is it possible that Zhu Hao will not go exploring for iron ore?
Zhu Hao spread his hands: "I have no experience in iron ore exploration. Dongzhu Su has recruited a large number of people, so it should be no problem. By the way, when the Bohai Shipyard is opened, Mr. Tang, you have to..."
"I knew you had no good intentions."
