Zaichun is so stinky! His face is so stinky. How come such an idiot can be an official? The rooster and hen are all out, and the workers around him are holding back and dare not laugh, and they feel uncomfortable like constipation.

"Shut up!" Emperor Tongzhi turned around and glared at him.

"So the Northern Special Zone can already manufacture high-quality rear-loading guns?" Zai Chun asked.

Before Xin Jian could answer, Prince Chun Yiqiu whispered, "Yes, a group of eighty-eighth-mounted steel cannons called imitating Prussia were all sent to the Western Expedition Army!"

"Zuo Zongtang tried artillery in the northwest, and it was very useful. The speed of fire was faster. It was a good weapon to restrain the cavalry!"

"Aguber's rebels are at the end of their power. Many of their troops are not real war horses. They have never trained to hear the sound of gunfires. As long as the cannons are fired, many war horses are shocked!"

Zaichun listened to Uncle Wu's words and his heart was full of bitterness. After he saw this forging bed, he could basically guess a rough idea.

“How many heavy forging beds are there in this special zone?”

"This one has the largest 1,500 tons, and the rest does not exceed 1,000 tons, about twenty units!"

Zai Chun sighed, "Uncle Fifth, do you know how the foreign devil ships are strong and cannon-making? Without this heavy forging bed, you can't even make cannons!"

"A real good gun barrel depends on forging. That's not the difference between us and others. The steel pipe is finished as soon as it is poured into shape. The difference between us and others is from the steel pipe in this furnace, and the forging beds one by one, and the difference is coming out."

"If you don't make progress, you may have a 10,000 tons of water press in the future, and there will be a shocking cannon that you would never have imagined!"

"Shocking cannon? How big can this cannon is?" Weng Tonghe obviously didn't want to increase the majesty of others.

"How big? Haha, I can blow up the city tower of Zhengyang Gate with just one shot!" Zai Chun said and left!

The subsequent visit made Zaichun feel heavier and heavier. He still remembered the situation when he went overseas to study here five years ago. The Special Zone was already very prosperous at that time, but the Special Zone was still mainly light industry.

The production of iron nails, oil lamps, spinning, weaving, printing and dyeing are all concentrated in light industries that focus on life!

There were not many military factories, but at that time, they could only produce some light weapons, rifle assembly, hand #thunder, bombing # medicine, and even the barrels of rifles needed to be imported from the United States and Prussia.

Only five years have passed, Xiao Letian has won five years of peaceful development by relying on strategic deception, but now heavy industry has suddenly become the mainstream of the SAR.

Steel blast furnaces have also been built, heavy forging machines have been available, and basic machinery for turning, milling, planing, grinding and drilling industry has also been complete!

What's even more terrifying is that Xiao Letian is training thousands of technical jobs, and then selecting plastic engineers from these technical blue-collar workers.

Look at the greasy lathes. A European-faced master has to bring at least ten apprentices, and his hungry expressions are so focused!

The master is building a system, that is, the industrial system. What he wants is that the Chinese industry cannot have shortcomings!

Perhaps the things produced by the Chinese at the beginning were not accurate, had low reliability, and had low standards, but it didn't matter. There was a gap between the same world and whether or not!

If you can produce it, at least you won’t be stuck in your neck. As for whether the quality of the things you produce is good, you can rely on time to improve it a little bit!

Once this system is established, the greatest security depends on the war period. When the Western trade embargo begins, the Chinese can still produce a batch of substitutes of average quality and make do with it.

Where is the Qing Dynasty? What is there? What can it produce? It’s not that it’s relying on others!

Emperor Tongzhi finally turned down the grand lunch prepared by the Special Administrative Region and left hungry after only four hours of investigation.

At the Xishuimen of the Special Administrative Region, the Haihe River system directly connects to the Grand Canal. From here, you can return to Sijiu City smoothly. After Zaichun got on the boat, he did not wave to the people who were greeting on the shore, and immediately held his imperial meeting.

"Did you see it? Have you seen it? This is the work that the Chinese have done in recent years. Where are we? Fuqing, you are from the Zongli Yamen. How are you doing in the other special zones of the Qing Dynasty?"

Sweat all appeared on Master Qing San’s forehead. When Xiao Letian rented Tanggu Special Zone, he also joined in the fun in the Qing Dynasty and also started a special zone, including Shanghai, Guangzhou and Guangzhou.

Shanghai is still a good deal, and several ceramic factories, tea factories, silk reels, and weaving have already generated profits through the original industries in the south.

But what do you say about Guangzhou? The land was entangled, but the sky was angry and people complained that even the workers could not recruit all the factories to be built. In the end, they were divided and rented out, and they built warehouses and shops for merchants.

This is not a special zone at all, that is, the Guangzhou General and the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi have joined forces to speculate in real estate!

He forced himself to encircle the people's land with the will of the court, but he did not have the ability to build an industrial zone at all. He finally sublet it and sold it to the merchant.

With just one turn, the profit was more than one million, and the amount of money sent to the capital's great figures is not a small amount!

This pot of water is too dirty and too mixed, so Master Qing San didn’t dare to mention it at all!

"Your Majesty is only responsible for the Telegram Bureau at the Zongli Yamen. I really don't know what happened to this special zone."

"Haha, you don't know, okay, is anyone else clear about it?"

"I won't tell me that no one of you knows it, right?"

Listening to Emperor Tongzhi's questioning, the ministers all lowered their heads and closed their mouths, only the sound of dragon boats piercing the water surface sounded in people's ears.

Zai Chun's face became worse and worse, which was a sign of getting angry! At this time, only the emperor's fifth uncle came to settle the situation.

"Ahem, although Your Majesty has not handled specific affairs of the court, I still know a little bit about the situation!"

"This Jiangnan Industrial Special Zone is backed by the convenience of Shanghai's port opening, and engages in foreign trade. It has built a number of porcelain factories, silk reel factories, weaving factories and refined tea factories."

"It is said that they have also made a rule that determines production based on sales, accepts overseas orders from foreigners, and produces products according to their requirements."

"For example, if you paint the scenery of their country on porcelain, you should have the most gorgeous colors and patterns! Even the grade of tea is produced according to foreign standards."

"Not to mention that in the past five years, the Jiangnan Special Administrative Region has made money, which is very good!"

"The Guangzhou Special Administrative Region ministers are not very familiar with it, but after hearing from the court, they have already made a profit. Long live the matter and don't worry too much!"

Zaichun couldn't help but give face to Uncle Wu and sighed, "Uncle Emperor! This is not a matter of money or not. Is the purpose of our special zone to make money?"

"Why don't you make money?"

"Oh, our Qing Dynasty still has to do our industry. We have to produce steel and foreign guns and cannons!"

"As long as my Qing Dynasty can produce my own foreign guns, cannons and warships, I would rather the Ministry of Revenue subsidize them in the backwards! I would rather he lose money every day!"

"We are backward because of poverty in the Qing Dynasty, because we have no industry!"

Zai Chun's head hurts so much that he waved his hand, "Disper, let's go first, let's go first, let's go back to Beijing, you have to think about it carefully when you return to the palace and hold a court meeting!"

The temporary meeting dispersed, and Weng Tonghe stopped Fu Qing and the fifth prince Yi Qi on the deck and whispered, "Prince, what should I do with the third master? Long live to ask for industry as soon as he returns to China!"

"With such a fire returning to Beijing, I'm afraid there will be a conflict! I think of a way to let Master Long live to calm down!"

"You can't mess around before you take charge of the government. You can't mess around when you don't get the power in your hands!"
