"I don't know if the so-called plan of Qingquan can be described in more detail. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Fang Xuanling stood up and said, comparing Zhang Nan's plan seems to be more closely related to himself, so Fang Xuanling asked.

"Naturally." Zhang Nan said with a smile.

"The so-called planning means a relatively comprehensive and long-term development plan formulated by an individual or organization, which is the thinking and consideration of the overall, long-term and basic issues of the future, and the design of a complete set of action plans for the future." Zhang Nan slowly read out the explanation of the nouns found out from the system without changing his face, and as soon as these words came out, the whole hall was shocked, because it was too professional, Li Er looked at Zhang Nan with a surprised face, as if he had discovered a new continent.

"Oh, that's a plan, it's a plan, it's called planning before acting." Li Er's face suddenly realized.

"Yes, that's right, that's what the minister meant. That's why the minister asked the emperor if he had a clear plan for the future. Zhang Nan said.

"Naturally, there is, how could it not be? Isn't this all a plan to build a military academy and enhance the national strength of our Datang? Li Er asked rhetorically.

"This is naturally a plan, but it is too lacking in regularity, and the minister has a plan, I don't know if it is feasible or not."

"Qingquan said that I am still very interested in Qingquan's thoughts." Li Er said.

"Okay, that's it. This plan, which was tentatively named the 'Tang Dynasty Rising Plan', was mainly divided into three aspects: internal affairs, commerce, military, and science and technology. Zhang Nan paused after speaking, and found that everyone was full of interest, as if everyone was very interested in Zhang Nan's "Tang Xiongqi Plan", so Zhang Nan continued.

"First of all, let's talk about science and technology, the so-called technology, such as this repeating crossbow, belongs to a part of science and technology, not only the structure of this repeating crossbow, the material of this crossbow, and the creation of steel, all belong to a part of science and technology, dare to ask the emperor, how much steel production does my Datang produce in a year." Zhang Nan asked.

"This ...... If you step up refining, the iron output of my Datang will be about 10 million catties a year. Li Er thought for a while and said. (At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the annual steel output was about 5,000 tons, 1 ton = 1,000kg, 1kg = 2 catties.) ）

"Not enough, not enough, far from enough, it's just too little. Iron coins, steel weapons, farm tools, salt pans, nails, anchors, and armor do not all need a supply of steel, does the emperor remember the industry I told you? Zhang Nan shook his head and said.

Li Er nodded, signaling that he still remembered.

"Steel is known as industrial food, and for industry, without the support of sufficient steel production, everything is empty talk." Zhang Nan said.

"Oh, isn't that less? I wonder how much iron Qingquan thinks is too much? Li Er asked strangely.

"Well, this, I'll calculate, I'll introduce a new unit of measurement, these two thousand catties, let's count it as a ton, I think at least the annual output of steel should reach 150,000 tons, as for how many catties, this, the emperor forgives the minister's calculations are not good, and they can't be calculated."

"That's all, 150,000 tons." Cui Shao, as the head of the household, although his arithmetic is not bad, but in the face of such a big conversion, Cui Shao can't calculate it at all, only knowing that this is an astronomical amount.

"Is it much? I don't think it's too much, huh? Zhang Nan looked strange, Zhang Nan still took out the steel output of the Song Dynasty to talk about things, if he said the output of more than one billion tons of modern steel, it is estimated that Li Er would be scared to death.

"Isn't that much? Mr. Zhang doesn't know, how can this ironmaking be so easy, there is a problem with this step, or the control of the heat is not in place, it is easy to waste, I Datang has tens of millions of catties of steel a year, which is not less. Ministry of Industry Shangshu Wei Tianwu said with a wry smile, it seems that he regards Zhang Nan as a person who doesn't eat minced meat.

"That's a problem with the iron-making method used, and with my method, it definitely works." Zhang Nan said confidently. That's right, Zhang Nan thought of the blast furnace steelmaking method.

Although many new iron-making methods have been researched and developed by countries around the world in modern times, Zhang Nan dared to say such things because of the good technical and economic indicators of blast furnace ironmaking, simple process, large production volume, high labor productivity and low energy consumption, and the iron produced by this method still accounts for more than 95% of the world's total iron output.

"I don't know if Master Zhang has a good prescription, and he can actually practice so much iron, this official needs to study it well." Wei Tianwu asked.

"There's no hurry, I naturally have a way, Master Wei, listen to me and finish the plan." Zhang Nan arched his hand after speaking. Then he said: "So for ironmaking, I want to put forward the first plan, that is, the five-year plan, within five years, to raise the iron output of my Datang to the figure I just mentioned, that is, 150,000 tons." ”

As soon as this remark came out, the whole house was shocked.

Zhang Nan didn't care whether these people were shocked or not, and continued: "For science and technology, what is the most important thing is invention, creation, and new ideas. For example, which craftsman with the ability can improve farm tools, or invent new farm tools, you can take the new thing to the Ministry of Industry to report, if it is indeed feasible, and can reduce manpower and material resources, then the Ministry of Industry must be registered, to prove that this thing is invented or improved by a certain craftsman, so that when the whole Datang is promoted, everyone can remember this craftsman, and it is best to divide the craftsman into grades, the more improvements, the more inventions, the higher the level. Zhang Nan said.

"Well, Your Majesty, Lord Zhang's proposal is agreed by the minister, this can not only get improved new farm tools, but also allow those craftsmen of low level to make more contributions to my Datang, and what is more valuable is that this move can greatly develop the wisdom of the people, which is a lot of gains." Gao Shilian stood up and said.

After Li Er heard Zhang Nan's plan, he couldn't stop nodding. "Wei Tianwu, I ordered you to be in charge of this matter, and after a while, I will issue a notice, all the craftsmen who can innovate and improve farm tools will come to the Ministry of Industry with their things to report, and after verification, they will be graded according to the quality of the improvement, and there will be five levels, you must make it clear, this is a craftsman recognized by the imperial court, understand?"

"Wechen understands." Wei Tianwu Dao.

"Qingquan, you go on, this is science and technology, let's talk about the military." Li Er said.

"Okay, then I'm talking about this military matter, Your Majesty, I think the current government military system has a great impact on the country's combat strength, and if we want to improve our military strength, it is imperative to reform the military system."

Hearing that Zhang Nan proposed military reform again, Li Er's brows furrowed tightly. It's not because of anything else, it's just two words, no money.
