Liu Chen talked freely with Jushu and Tian Feng about the past and present. Time passed quickly. At the speed visible to the naked eye, the printed books were completed one by one.

This speed simply amazed Tian Feng and Jushou. At this rate, these tens of thousands of books will be printed in less than ten days and a half!

This is because the ink dries slowly, otherwise it would be faster.

Soon after, Zhao Yun hurried over.

Liu Chen thought he had finished ransacking his house, and was about to listen to his report. Unexpectedly, Zhao Yun said excitedly:

"Lord, the ore prospectors heading to the southwest and northwest finally found iron ore in the mountains.……"

When Liu Chen heard this, he was a little surprised. After searching hard and anticipating for so long, he finally found the iron ore!

It was not in vain that he spent millions of points to upgrade [Mine] to level 4.

He immediately said:"Zilong, without further ado, immediately arrange manpower to prepare for mining iron ore, and coal mines and salt mines also need to be put on the agenda.

"For those who find iron ore, there will be a heavy reward. Those who find salt mines and coal mines should not favor one over the other.

"By the way, in this case of corruption and bribery of Yuan Fu, a lot of land was confiscated and a hundred acres were donated to the prospectors.

"If some prospectors fail to find any mines, do not punish them, but give them verbal praise as encouragement."

After listening to Liu Chen's instructions, Zhao Yun said respectfully:"Yes! Lord!"

"Congratulations, lord! Congratulations, lord!" Jushuo and Tian Feng said with a smile as they cupped their hands.

With the iron ore and coal mines, they finally no longer have to rely on outsiders for Changshan's war resources and fuel resources.

It's the salt mine. I don't know what Liu Chen can do to eliminate it. Toxic substances can be eaten by the human body. They are somewhat looking forward to it.

After the mineral salt is mined, they will know the truth!

The official in charge of the forging institute also said with a face of surprise:"Your Highness, I will arrange manpower Preparing the stirrup and horseshoe casting projects"

"good. Liu

Chen nodded and said:"Ask the Forging Institute to arrange manpower to assist in the mining of mining resources. Remember, you must be extremely careful and don't be impatient!""

"yes."

Everyone left happily.

Jushou and Tian Feng went to deal with the government issues left by Yuan Fu.

The officials in charge of the forging institute were preparing to mass-produce stirrups and horseshoes.

Zhao Yun also arranged manpower to reward those who were prospecting, and the most important thing was to send troops before Stationed near the mine to avoid being taken advantage of by other thieves.

Liu Chen was also in a very comfortable mood.

Now Changshan Country's food output has doubled, sweet potatoes and potatoes are also being planted, and agriculture has no worries for the time being.

The military has one hundred thousand soldiers. , as well as generals such as Zhao Yun, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang Jia, Gao Lan, etc., with elite equipment.

After the iron ore was mined, horseshoes and stirrups were continuously produced. There should also be ironware and horses purchased from the Zhen family. It will be delivered soon.

The military and agriculture are not worried for the time being, and iron ore, coal mines and salt mines are also being mined.

Medical schools and other schools are also recruiting students in a steady stream to prepare for the future talent reserve and doctor reserve.

Today's Development can be said to cover: agriculture + military + medical care + education. These are urgently needed development projects.

Of course, this is not all. Liu Chen plans to burn paper cement, red bricks, refining gunpowder, manufacturing glass, soap, making high-quality liquor, and smelting in the future. Steel, etc.

After unifying the Han Dynasty, we still need to develop the navigation industry, telescopes, sextants, etc. By then, steam engines can also be put on the agenda.

"There is a long way to go!"Liu Chen thought with joy in his pain.

Time flew by like this, and a week passed in the blink of an eye.

The raids on the homes of the wealthy families involved in the corruption and bribery case of Yuan Fu, the former prime minister, were almost coming to an end. During this period, everyone in the powerful Changshan family could be said to be free. It was dangerous.

Even those unrelated families were already preparing to move their families and leave Changshan, and Liu Chen didn't care.

Most of the printing of the books was completed, and Liu Chen had gradually equipped it with the established library, and there were also batches of books. Entering the school.

The mining of iron ore and coal mines went very smoothly. All they found were open-pit mines. However, the salt mines had to go tens of meters underground to collect brine, which was a bit troublesome.

Liu Chen did not stop and still sent prospectors to continue. Looking for other mines.

In order to facilitate the investigation of the surrounding area, Liu Chen sent reconnaissance pigeons and communication pigeons to the mining personnel. There were only 20 pigeons in total, which were naturally not enough.

Liu Chen once again purchased 100 pigeons from the animal training academy, spending 2 million points. The number of reconnaissance pigeons and communication pigeons increased instantly.

There were enough pigeons in Changshan counties, mines, sweet potato planting land, and eye agents all over Luoyang and other places.

School books were convenient, so Liu Chen exchanged them for the Three Character Classic, Children's Classic, etc. Books on mathematics, physics, etc. These books are not expensive individually, but they cost nearly 1 million in total. They are already being mass-produced through movable type printing.

But what makes Liu Chen a little worried is that the enrollment during this period was not smooth. Even though Liu Chen was provided with food and shelter, those young children who were already able to work were left to work at home by their parents.

The reason was that the doubling of grain production during this period stimulated them and made them feel that studying was not as good as farming!

Because in this era, the number of people in a family was calculated as a"capitation tax", which was paid on a per capita basis.

Only those children who were unable to work were sent to school because they were provided with food and housing, which also allowed their parents to work with peace of mind.

These people aged Too young, they are all about 2 to 10 years old.

I believe that when they reach a certain age, they will be taken back by their parents to continue working. This is not what Liu Chen wants to see.

He quickly found Jushou, and now Hua Tuo and others After the doctor had enrolled hundreds of children, he was already teaching medicine at Meizizi, and the school was under the responsibility of Professor Ju.
