Preparing for Construction
After returning to the camp and settling down the bandits, Zhang Yu returned home.
Meanwhile, the little girl who stayed at home had been a little nervous for the past two days. She knew that Zhang Yu had never been on the battlefield. Bullets had no eyes on the battlefield. What if something happened to her?
That afternoon, when the little girl saw Zhang Yu, she was very happy. The two of them should be the closest people in this world.
Other than the other party, the two of them had no other relationship in this world.
In the past two days, the little girl had been bored at home, so she started to walk around under the protection of a few guards.
Originally, some people in the village wanted to curry favor with her, but they were basically all avoided by the little girl herself. Even if they could not avoid it, they would be stopped by the guards.
To be honest, the girl's deepest impression of her so-called fellow countrymen was their indifference after the outbreak of the plague.
Although she knew that she couldn't completely blame the villagers for this, after all, everyone was afraid of this thing. The invisible power was the most terrifying.
"Brother, you're back. Did everything go smoothly? Have you eaten yet? If not, I'll go prepare it for you.”The little girl was cleaning the house. When she saw Zhang Yu return, she asked excitedly.
"I haven't eaten yet. Things are going quite smoothly. Except for the bandits in the north near Shanxi, we've basically dealt with all the bandits around Jiyuan.”Zhang Yu said happily when he saw the little girl's appearance.
After hearing Zhang Yu's words, the little girl happily ran to the kitchen to pack her things. After putting down his things, Zhang Yu ran over to help.
When she first saw Zhang Yu walk into the kitchen, the little girl was very surprised. She even wanted to push Zhang Yu out directly because, at least in the eyes of the young girl, it seemed a little bad to let a man into the kitchen.
"Brother, why did you come in? If your subordinates know about this, how are you going to command them? Which man would run into the kitchen to make a fire?”The young girl looked at Zhang Yu who was making a fire and said helplessly.
"Don't worry, my soldiers won't say anything. Besides, I only came in to help you with the fire. I might not be able to do anything else well.”Zhang Yu said with a smile.
After a while, seeing that the little girl's rebuttal was useless, she slowly stopped protesting.
However, at this moment, the little girl asked curiously,""Brother, where did you find these subordinates? They are all so knowledgeable. Just the guards who followed me out today feel that they know more than the teachers in town?”
"They were all trained by me.”Zhang Yu said shamelessly,""In a few days, I'll find a teacher for you and let her teach you something. In addition, I plan to build a primary school in the middle of these villages and let the children in the villages go to school.”
"That's a good thing, but can they afford the tuition fees? As for finding a teacher for me, forget it, alright? Didn't this old man always say? A woman's lack of talent is virtue." The little girl was a little excited when she heard that, but she thought of something and became silent.
"What the ancients said! We'll listen to what we should listen to, and change what we shouldn't listen to. If you ask me, this woman can hold up half the sky! You don't have to worry about the tuition fees. The primary and secondary schools are definitely completely free.”Zhang Yu said calmly.
Zhang Yu knew that some of the so-called customs had to be changed. At the very least, the issue of women was a very prominent problem.
The development of China in the 21st century was inseparable from the gradual independence of women, but this required the right guidance. In fact, China had already begun to have enlightenment on women's rights, but it was only a slow exploration.
The little girl and Zhang Yu continued to chat for a while, and then dinner was ready. Zhang Yu returned to his room and exchanged a few female teachers for the little girl. He spent about a few hundred points.
Zhang Yu arranged for these teachers to go to the campsite. He planned to wait until tomorrow to let them come over and impart some knowledge to the little girl.
Then, Zhang Yu began to plan an industrial construction plan.
In 1936, China was not only lacking in heavy industry, but also in light industry.
If the labour-intensive jobs such as the textile industry could be considered passable, then the steel, cement, and glass industries could basically be said to be unbearable.
Moreover, even the strongest textile industry was nothing in front of a real textile country.
Therefore, in this situation, if one wanted to establish an industrial system, it could basically be considered as starting from scratch.
Now, Zhang Yu had two paths in front of him. One was to choose balanced development, but there might not be enough time. The other was to focus on developing heavy industry for now, and the light industry could be delayed slightly.
After a few hours of thinking, Zhang Yu decided to develop the industry first, but heavy industry was still more important.
There was a reason for this choice. Although Henan was in the hinterland of the Central Plains, it had a large population and was also a major grain-producing province. However, the distribution of the minerals here was rather scattered.
Not to mention other things, at least Jiyuan, where Zhang Yu was currently located, had a lot of various ores. However, the total amount of iron ore was only 15 million tons, which was really not enough for anything.
In the 21st century, a medium-sized steel factory would be able to use up all of these iron ores in a year.
Although there were iron ores in other places, even if the place was taken down, it would still have to be transported here later, which naturally increased the cost.
Of course, Zhang Yu could also choose to exchange for iron ores from the system. Iron ores of 30% quality could be bought for two tons with one point. Perhaps Zhang Yu would consider doing this when he was rich in the future, but for Zhang Yu, who was currently short of points, this kind of thing should wait until he was rich in the future!
However, what he didn't expect was that in the future, he might really do it. One point and two tons of iron ore were indeed worth it.
But now, Zhang Yu had another more urgent goal, which was to build up the 2nd regiment of the People's Army.
Currently, the 2nd Regiment already had a battalion, and the remaining two infantry battalions, along with the artillery and other organizations, would still cost about 400,000 points.(Because there might be some adjustments to the data, it's just a rough number.)
In other words, an entire regiment required about 500,000 points. Zhang Yu still had over 800,000 points left.
And at this time, Zhang Yu discovered how poor he was!
The new book is asking for support.
Also, I hope that everyone can give more opinions, as long as they are normal opinions.
