Chapter 506: Nature's Wrath, All Beings Are Equal
Wang Chongyang said with some embarrassment: "The minister should take the official family to have a look." ”
"Can't you tell?" Zhao Huan asked with a little surprise. Isn't the development of the mining area very good this year?
Zhao Huan doesn't think it's bad, it's obviously very popular! Why did Wang Chongyang have an indescribable expression?
"Let's talk as we go." Wang Chongyang finally sighed and said.
The matter of the mining area is much more complicated than Zhao Huan thought.
Zhao Huan patiently ate and followed Wang Chongyang and the others out of the house.
He could see that in order to meet his inspection, these people did not do a lot of cleaning, and the people in this mining area actually had their faces extremely clean, even their nails were specially cleaned.
Zhao Huan looked around and pointed to the black brick drying factory in front of him, and asked, "These are all brick-burning workshops?" How many? ”
Wang Chongyang said with a smile: "Because it is close to the coal mine, each pit has three to four brick mills, three lime workshops, two iron mills, and a steel pottery furnace workshop for every two pits. ”
"Then why is there only one brick mill burning? What about the other brick mills, lime mills, iron mills, and steel mills? Zhao Huan asked puzzled.
Could it be that it was the inspection that led to the stoppage?
Wang Chongyang is not a person who likes face engineering, when he was in a hurry from the Taihang Mountain Road and threw out the scars on his face, he didn't see him trimming his edges and tidying up his clothes before seeing himself.
Wang Chongyang sighed and said, "It was the minister who told them to stop." It's not to welcome the official family, these workshops have been stopped for two months. ”
"These workshops are now being remodeled."
"In the first few months, the turbidity gas was randomly discharged into the sky, making it gray everywhere, and the minister was worried that some time ago, the Dazai and the admonition of the court, and the joint Taiwan sent a letter of advice, saying that there was ash floating in Bianjing, so it was stopped."
Zhao Huan took two steps, looked at the black ash on his trouser tube, and knew that Wang Chongyang was true.
Dust pollution is really serious.
There was all that burnt black ash everywhere, and his trousers were covered in dust.
Zhao Huan still asked with a little reproach: "After the shutdown, is the iron enough to supply the Great Song Dynasty?" You know there's an iron shortage everywhere right now. ”
"Especially the soldiers on the front line, only a few elite regiments of the regular army wear armor, and the rest of the regular army, auxiliary troops and civilian men have not yet set armor, if you stop like this, will you waste food because of choking?"
Wang Chongyang straightened up, he didn't avoid this question, but said solemnly: "If it's not enough, you have to stop." The front-line soldier is the Great Song Zhonggu, and this craftsman is also the Great Song Zhonggu! ”
"A few days ago, a few craftsmen had silicosis, and they couldn't breathe all the time, they were all guilty, and they kept urging us to kill him, and the front line was no longer enough, and the workshop had to stop."
"The people who use it well are all Khitans and Bohai people, and there are some felons, so I don't feel sorry if I die."
"But Inoue, they are all craftsmen with Gongjue in the Great Song Dynasty, and they are distressed when they die. This could not be done any longer, so the minister told them to stop. ”
When Zhao Huan heard the word silicosis, he knew that Wang Chongyang had Wang Chongyang's difficulties.
"You said those workshops were remodeled, what's going on?" Zhao Huan looked at Wang Chongyang's expression that was not nervous at all, and continued to walk forward. I know that this qi practitioner still has something to say.
Zhao Huan went to the medical team in the mine, and he was going to see those patients with silicosis.
Zhao Huan saw a large stack of lists, the most of which was mild silicosis, and it was after several cases of severe illness that Wang Chongyang investigated the craftsmen of chest tightness and chest pain.
The mild silicosis patients all left the mine directly, and the seriously ill ones lived in the hospital in Bianjing.
However, Zhao Huan knew that severe silicosis was in the Great Song Dynasty, and he was guilty of it.
These craftsmen, all of whom make a living by their crafts, have been smoky and burning for many years, but now when they come to the edge of the mine, the air dust pollutes the eyes, and the disease becomes serious.
I can't say that I can't touch the hammer in my life, and I can't do heavy work.
Zhao Huan put down the notebook in his hand and said, "These three hundred craftsmen, have they all given the settlement fee?" ”
Wang Chongyang heard the official family talk about this, with a smile on his face, and said: "The dredging of the Yellow River has created a lot of fields, and Li Dazai has also given them Gongjue fields, and they are not unable to work." The craftsmen of the old Gongjue, everyone is a treasure. ”
"Some of the ordnance superintendents in Bianjing are responsible for designing and processing the notes that come back from various ordnance departments. Some went to the workhouse to teach apprentices, and their lives could go on. ”
"The official family is relieved, Dazai has arranged it."
Zhao Huan nodded, Li Gang's set of methods to make the most of it was quite similar to himself.
He continued to walk forward, and walked to the chimney of the only brick house where the fire burned the bricks, and finally saw what Wang Chongyang said about the reconstruction.
The chimney of the Great Song Workshop does not need to be so high, it is not chemical, and it does not use ultra-high chimneys.
What Zhao Huan saw was a chimney that was crooking, a chimney that fell by the water, and what was inserted into the water was a thick iron pipe.
"Official, the second half of this chimney is equipped with a spray tower, and there is also hole carbon, which is the hole carbon that the official family talked about last time." Wang Chongyang took out a bundle of columnar hole carbon and said.
Zhao Huan stared at it for a long time, only to know that this was activated carbon, and it was really made for Wang Chongyang.
It is not difficult to make activated carbon, especially when the amount is not large.
The wood can be heated and stuffed in a closed iron barrel for a few days, and this process is called carbonization.
Then the air is pressed into the air to make the carbonized charcoal expand, and this stage is called the activation process.
Before 3750 B.C., the ancient Egyptians of the Maadi period had already rubbed charcoal with their bare hands to purify the pyramids of the pharaohs.
China is not too late, and activated carbon has also been unearthed in some tombs of the Yu Shun Dynasty to purify the air.
When Wang Chongyang donated urea, he communicated with the officials about how to realize the Tao and nature.
As soon as Zhao Huan talked about the production process, Wang Chongyang knew what it was, and the objects often used in funeral goods.
Wang Chongyang looked at the official family, and said with an extremely heavy face: "Some time ago, there was fog here in Cizhou, and I have never seen that terrible fog, black, yellow, purple, blood red mist, all kinds of colors, but no matter the color, it is spicy and choking. ”
"That's the Qionghao Descendant! The minister did not dare not pay attention to it. ”
Of course Zhao Huan knew what it was, haze.
The term often comes up with the beginning of the Industrial Revolution.
For example, London is called the Fog Capital, and it was in 1952 that the London Smog Incident occurred, and more than 6,000 people died in four days.
Wang Chongyang is right, if the standards are not formulated at the beginning, it will be more difficult to rectify them later.
Later generations made great strides forward, that was making up for the lesson, and had to sacrifice something in exchange for development, knowing that with a sword of Damocles on his head, something could happen at any time, but he could only move forward with his head bored.
Who will let it fall behind?
If you fall behind, you will be beaten.
Now the Great Song Dynasty is the first in the world everywhere except for the military!
There is no need to rush forward in a big stride.
Small steps and fast pace, solve all problems, and then go forward.
The age of Zhao Huan's body is only twenty-seven years old, so he is not in a hurry, and he has a lot of time.
Zhao Huan nodded affirmatively and said, "Put more effort into this, and figure out how to deal with Qionghao Jian." That fog is not to scare people, this time it makes you afraid, and the next time it may kill our people in the Great Song Dynasty. ”
"Including me."
The word Son of Heaven, usually referring to the emperor, can be understood as a child of heaven.
It's just what others say, Zhao Huan doesn't dare to take it seriously.
Everyone is mortal, and it is really polluted, as the emperor, can he still hide in the deep mountains and old forests to work?
The same is to suffer in Bianjing, the wrath of nature, regardless of the old and the young, the noble and the low, are all treated uniformly, and all beings are equal.
"After the water absorbs the turbidity, it will be steamed here, and the turbidity will settle for a long time, leaving the silt in the big pit in the back mountain. This is the best way for the minister to think of now. Wang Chongyang said with regret.
He didn't completely solve the problem of Dao Nature.
Even though the smoke had passed through the spray tower and the baptism of hole carbon, he could still smell the pungent smell of rotten eggs from the emitted smoke.
He didn't know what it was, and he had to wait for the official family to explain his doubts.
Zhao Huan listened carefully to Wang Chongyang's question, nodded, and showed that he knew Wang Chongyang's confusion.
That is, practical chemistry is going too fast, and theoretical chemistry is going too slowly.
Zhao Huan glanced at Zhang Tanghua, who was studying the experiment report, was she really interested in this aspect?
Do you want to train a magician of the Great Song Dynasty's fire magic, Boyle?
