"Lord, in the north of Yuyang County, Youzhou, although they are all close to the sea, but the sun is insufficient, the effect of the salt drying method you said is not good, and the salt boiling method consumes a lot of manpower and material resources. "

As for table salt, Pan Feng knows a little.

He used to have a classmate who was from the southern coast, and his family used to dry salt, and Pan Feng also went to play once during the summer vacation and learned a little.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, I learned from the mouth of the Water Margin that it had always been boiled salt.

Pan Feng was also reborn to know that salt in ancient China was basically made of brine as raw materials, and salt was obtained by decoction on firewood.

Before the Northern Song Dynasty, it was all the boiling salt method, and it was not until the end of the Northern Song Dynasty that the salt drying method appeared in the south, and the effect was not good due to technical reasons.

What Pan Feng didn't know was that there was no obvious difference in salt refining from the Northern Song Dynasty to the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties.

It was not until 1901 that the Laoshan salt people used the ditch and beach method to change the cooking and frying method to the sun, thus ending the history of boiling salt.

The lack of sun exposure in the north, especially in the northeast, is a shortcoming.

For this, Pan Feng didn't have any effective way, so he had to ask the craftsmen to improve and improve the tools, combine the drying and cooking, and send more manpower.

"You have to use your brains more, there are always more ways than difficulties, I am optimistic about you!" Pan Feng patted a few salt-making craftsmen, so relieved.

"Rest assured, we will definitely solve the salt problem of the people!" In

ancient times, the status of craftsmen was very low, Pan Feng first greatly improved their treatment and status, and now it is so important, one by one the craftsmen are impassioned, and they can't wait to be ruined.

Walk out of the salt refining area and come to the woodworking area.

"I want this set of Eight Immortal Tables and Taishi Chairs! And this box, cabinet, dresser, and bed, give me the whole set.

As soon as Guo Jia saw a set of newly polished Northern Song Dynasty furniture, his eyes immediately lit up.

The scientific and technological level of the Northern Song Dynasty, clothing, food, housing and transportation were far from being comparable to those in the late Han Dynasty.

It's just that the number is too small, except for what the Water Margin needs, only the middle and high-level people have it.

But the ability of the Han nation is beyond doubt, many imitations have been circulated on the market, leading the fashion, I believe that in the near future, this fashion led by Youzhou will go to all places.

"Lord, military advisor, this set of furniture

, Li Fugui is going to use it to prepare for the exchange meeting!" Pan Feng patted his head, and then remembered, a month ago, Li Fugui came to the door, saying that he would prepare an exchange meeting, put the goods developed in Youzhou, and invite all the commercial houses gathered in Youzhou to come and open up sales!

Isn't this the Canton Fair?

Pan Feng agreed at that time, and named this exchange meeting Jixian Exchange Meeting, but later there were many things, so he left this matter behind!

This Li Fugui really had a forward idea.

"Lord, Li Fugui is here!" Li Fugui

, who is recommended by Tian Chou in the classics, founded the first official character firm - Zhiyuan Commercial Bank with the consent of Pan Feng.

Since its founding, Li Fugui's business talents have been brought into full play, and he has snatched half of the share from the wonderful business firm founded by Zhen Jiang and the hands of his mother-in-law, the Zhen family!

Li Fugui is so capable and talented in business, that a big shopkeeper of a commercial bank can be condescended, so Pan Feng set up a department of commerce, and Li Fugui served as the first director of the department of commerce.

The Department of Commerce is under the jurisdiction of Changshi, and its main power is to manage commerce, and oil and water can be said to be the most lucrative department.

"See the lord for your humble duties!" Li

Fugui came and bowed to Pan Fengna.

If it weren't for Pan Feng, Li Fugui's talent would not have been able to be brought into play, and the latter would always have a sense of gratitude to the former for the death of his confidant.

"Fugui, how are the preparations for the first Jixian Exchange Meeting?"

"Lord, although our product variety is less, it is better than novel and practical, and I think that the first hit that the lord said is absolutely no problem!"

Then, Li Fugui introduced the exchange fee in detail.

"Very good, although don't worry to do it boldly!" After listening to Li Fugui's introduction, Pan Feng felt very satisfied.

At the same time, I feel that there will be no shortage of talents at any time, what is lacking is soil and opportunities, as well as opportunities to broaden their horizons.

Undoubtedly, Li Fugui and others are lucky.

"What else can the military advisor add?" Li Fugui respectfully asked Guo Jia for instructions, after all, this is the nominal second-in-command.

"Anything produced by the workshop must be put into the market step by step, and the military side must be even more cautious, and it must be evaluated by various ministries, so as not to leak our secrets and cause financial enemies. "

The military advisor can rest assured, all this is well known to his humble duty.

Tang Long explained: "Although this is reassuring, the lord said that at any time, we must keep a hand, and only by developing the second generation can we put the first generation into the market."

Pan Feng did explain this sentence before, but he forgot it after he finished speaking, but fortunately, his younger brothers always remembered and implemented the truth he said.

"After the exchange meeting, this set of furniture will still be sent to my house!" Guo Jia added this sentence without anything to add.

"Don't worry, the lord has explained, and he starts to use new things from top to bottom!" Pan

Feng is not an old pedant, and if there are good things, he and his henchmen must enjoy them first.

Next, we continued to inspect and came to the innovation pilot area.

"How is the glass made?"

Pan Feng saw a few craftsmen burning sand

! Tang Long smiled bitterly and pointed to

the pile of garbage on the corner, and said: "There are some eyebrows, but the gap between them and the transparent glass described by the lord is too big!" Pan Feng looked at the pile of garbage, most of them were pimple-like, and only a few of them had some characteristics of glass!

Then Pan Feng looked at the firing process for a while, patted his head and said: " The melting point is a little insufficient, and I remember adding something to lower the melting point. "

It's true that the melting point is not enough, and the sand can't completely melt into liquid, and when it cools, it becomes a lump of lumps, whether it's cooled naturally or cooled in water.

"It's a little soluble

in water, add lime and try it!" "Adding lime won't dissolve in water, this Pan Feng didn't know where he had heard it before, and he forgot what it was that lime didn't dissolve in water, so it's always right to try more."

The craftsman of the experimental glass wrote it down: completely burn and melt, add lime to make it insoluble in water!

"Don't use charcoal, use coal instead to see if the temperature will rise!"

"Coal has many names at this time, "Shi Ni", "Shi Ni", "Graphite", "Wujin Stone", "Black Dan" and so on, coal is used in the Guanliang area, but only a small amount, and there is no coal in Youzhou.

Until the Northern Song Dynasty, the use of coal was not large, and coke appeared in the Southern Song Dynasty, and it began to be used in large quantities after the Yuan Dynasty.

Tang Long knew about coal, but he didn't find that there was coal, and he didn't pay attention to it!

" "Send an order to go down, look for iron ore

, but also find coal mines, and go to the north to find them!" "There is no shortage of coal mines in China, especially Inner Mongolia and Shanxi, but the major coal-producing provinces, and the north of Youzhou is Inner Mongolia.

"Continue the experiment, don't be afraid of failure!" encouraged

the craftsmen who tested glass, and Pan Feng inspected the cement test area, the steel test area, and the agricultural tool test area

Pan Feng gave guidance one by one.

It's a pity that Pan Feng, who is swaying with half a bucket of water, can only warn the craftsmen from time to time with words such as 'failure is the mother of success, don't be afraid of failure in scientific experiments, fail a thousand times, as long as there is one success, it is success'.

Moved to tears, the craftsmen were in tears.

What craftsmen are most afraid of is not being understood, how can Pan Feng not be moved by Pan Feng's understanding and support?
