Pulp dyeing line in the conference hall.

Everyone only listened to the old president's deep voice: "Thanks to your love, the old man has been in charge of the Wuhu pulp and dyeing industry for twenty years, and he has only acted arbitrarily once, that is, when he was fighting for the right to dye and sell cloth, he insisted on a stalemate with the cloth merchants in Songjiang to the end, and finally forced them to give in. ”

"We are here today because of the strength of the elder to overcome the opinions of the people that day." Everyone was busy and convinced, "This time we will also listen to the elder." ”

"Yes, what the elder says, we will do!" The big and small dyers all shouted.

"Okay, thank you for your trust, the old man will be arbitrary again today." Ruan Bi nodded, and said to everyone slowly but firmly: "For many years, the old man's attitude has never changed - everything is based on the development and growth of our pulp and dyeing industry in Wuhu. As long as the industry grows, everyone will get enough benefits. ”

"Therefore, we must put aside the selfish thoughts of individuals and choose a path that is most beneficial to the development of the industry. Then it is obvious how to go on this road. I only heard the elder say lightly: "Looking at Daming, the most rapid development momentum is Jiangnan Group." And looking at its layout, the Yangtze River, the Taihu Lake, and the south of the Yangtze River are just around the corner. ”

"The so-called 'Dapeng rises with the wind one day and soars up to 90,000 miles.'" Our Wuhu pulp dyeing industry, as long as we take the big ship of Jiangnan Group, will naturally develop and grow. But only by becoming a part of the Jiangnan Group can you get the same treatment as the group's own sons. On the contrary, if you don't want to lose your dominant position, if you leave immediately, in the eyes of others, you can only be raised by a small maid, and the benefits will be limited after all. ”

In order to let the big dyeing owners hear their hearts, Ruan Bi broke it and kneaded it, and said it very roughly.

The owners of the big dyeing workshop have a difficult look on their faces, and they say that your old man has no son, and that it is of course easy to start from the overall situation. We have sons, and we want to be emperors from generation to generation......

"If you disagree, it doesn't matter, it's allowed." Ruan Bi knew the thoughts of these guys well, and said lightly: "It's not that everyone in the guild wants to participate in the future pulp and dyeing company, and those who don't agree will not participate in the shares." The old man promises that the company will not embarrass you in the future. ”

As he spoke, he spit out the betel nut residue in his mouth, lowered his eyelids and said, "That's it, those who are willing to participate can stay, and those who don't want to participate can go back first, and come and go as they please." ”

The "......" hall was silent, and no big dyeing owner dared to move.

The bad old man is very bad, and only by believing in you can he have a ghost.

They are not three-year-olds, how can they naively think that they can be safe and sound in the future?

Once Jiangnan Pulp and Dyeing Company is established, is there still a way for them to live as workshop owners?

Now they all lost their hearts, and none of them dared to leave the hall.

The next day, Zhao Gongzi visited the Wang family's Wang Ji Steel Mill by the Yangtze River.

Originally, Xu Bangrui, the chairman of Jiangnan Coal and Iron Group, was scheduled to come to visit together, but Zhao Hao received an urgent letter from him last night, and his husband Xu Pengju suddenly fell ill.

Zhao Hao wrote back to greet the old man, and said that if you need a doctor, you can inform Jiangnan Hospital at any time.

Fortunately, Xu Pengju had completed his mission - he used the power of the Wei State Mansion to directly buy more than half of the iron ore in Fanchang County. For a long time, Jiangnan Group does not need to worry about high-grade iron ore.

So it doesn't matter if you come or not, and it's the same if Zhao Gongzi visits alone.

Zhao Hao is still very interested in this most advanced steel production plant in Daming and even in the world.

The horse-drawn carriage drove along a very tightly compacted gangue road into a huge yard with a separate wharf.

As soon as he got out of the car, Zhao Hao saw several mountains of black ore piled up next to the riverside wharf.

If you look closely, you can still distinguish it, the stone is larger, and the color is lighter, iron ore; The other dark black is coal.

Zhao Hao couldn't help but sigh that Wuhu's water transportation advantages do have unparalleled competitiveness in this era.

"The location of your steel mill is really convenient."

"This kind of iron ingots were transported from Fanchang Zheqiling, and coal was pulled from Guichi Mantou Mountain." Wang Yu explained with a smile: "We don't produce coal and iron in Wuhu, and if we don't build the yard by the river, the freight will be unbearable." Fortunately, both mines are located on the upstream riverside, and the freight is acceptable. ”

"Well, built on the riverside, whether it is to take water to wash the minerals, or to cool down, it is also very convenient." Zhao Hao nodded, and when it came to ironmaking, he was much more knowledgeable than pulp dyeing. The 01 Institute of the Research Center was established under the guidance of Zhao Gongzi and was researching in the direction he gave it.

Wang Yu couldn't help but secretly admire, although the dozen or so blacksmith masters on Xishan Island were given to Zhao Hao by him. But Zhao Gongzi has a lot of opportunities, and he actually knows such a small joint, which is really unconvincing.

It seems that all success is not a fluke. Wang Yu sighed secretly, and his words and deeds became more and more respectful. led him directly through the yard and into the gate of the steel mill.

~~

As soon as he entered the steel mill, Zhao Gongzi saw two huge greenhouses, with dozens of workers, using wheelbarrows to transport iron ore and coal from outside into the greenhouses on both sides.

In the shed on the left, there are long troughs made of bricks and stones, and next to the trough is a cistern also made of masonry.

Workers poured truckloads of iron ore into the trough and opened the sluices. The water in the cistern rushed into the tank violently, taking away a lot of dirt and impurities. There are also workers who use rakes to stir up the ore vigorously to remove the clay attached to it and the stones mixed in it.

Then there is a special beneficiation master, who takes a dustpan to carefully wash and select the iron ore. Anyone who carries a gangue stone or something that is in poor condition will be discarded directly. Only high-quality ores are packed into bamboo baskets on the side.

However, these ores still cannot be directly put into the furnace, and they have to be crushed and crushed into ore with a small hammer, and then washed again, and finally left iron ore with very few impurities.

Zhao Hao nodded approvingly, this is the same principle as the washing and beneficiation of later generations.

Wang Yu introduced from the side: "This washing pool was created by my father, although it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, but it has many benefits. ”

"After washing, is there more iron, less slag, and can you save coal?" Zhao Hao grabbed a handful of black-brown mineral sand, this quality is indeed visible to the naked eye. In fact, Fanchang iron ore is also one of the few high-grade iron ores in China, and the reason why Suzhou Iron and Steel is unique in the world has a great relationship with the materials.

"It's worthy of Zhao Gongzi, it's really a matter of the world, and he knows everything!" Wang Yu hurriedly presented the sycophant and said: "There is really no one who understands better than Gongzi." ”

Zhao Gongzi rolled his eyes, what kind of bullshit title is this?

P.S. Sorry, I'm too tired to come back, and there's a more, you can watch it tomorrow morning.
