After being busy for more than a month, Yang Xin was about to take a break when Yang Song came to him with a report. He couldn't help but sigh. He was really tired.
However, this report was an inventory of all his businesses, so Yang Xin had to pay attention to it.
When he finished reading, he realized that the results of the past few months were really amazing. There was no need to mention the cement factory.
The entire cement factory was very lively. Other than the workers that came with the system, more than 3,000 people had been recruited. The cement factory had more than 5,000 workers.
Of course, the number of workers was still increasing, because the demand for cement in Chahar was too great.
After the adjustment, the production capacity of the cement factory was increased by four times. Especially after the new workers were trained and became skilled workers, the potential of the cement factory was completely unleashed.
The daily production of cement was 15,000 bags, four times more than the previous 4,000 bags.
If he continued to recruit, he could continue to improve. He could even reach 20,000 bags of cement per day, which was a very large number.
The annual output was over a million tons. Even in the future, it would still be a large cement factory. Although it could not compare to the hundreds of millions of tons of cement factory, a million tons of cement factory would definitely be a large enterprise in the present.
The huge amount of cement provided a strong support for the construction of the roads in Chahar. This was because Yang Xin had repaired all the roads in Chahar, connecting all the counties together. The muddy roads made Yang Xin feel very uncomfortable.
Moreover, Yang Xin was prepared to shift his attention to Mongolia because it had countless resources, especially the world's largest gold mine, which had almost a thousand tons of gold reserves. In addition, the copper reserves reached nearly 40 million tons.
This was a huge resource, especially copper ore, which was one of the main raw materials for manufacturing bullets. In addition, there was also the rising electricity, which required copper to produce wires. Therefore, the copper ore must not be lost.
Regardless of whether it was for resources or territory, Mongolia could not be lost.
Apart from that, Chahar also built a series of factories, such as a match factory, a paper factory, a food processing factory, and a clothing factory. These light industries were the most basic necessities of life.
At the same time, the light industry was also the most profitable. It could bring Yang Xin a steady stream of wealth, so that he had enough military expenses to expand the army.
To be honest, the results of these few months were enough to make others excited, but for Yang Xin, it was far from enough.
This was because China had been lagging behind the other worlds for too long. Although the light industry had greatly improved after a period of development, it was only limited to the southeast. A bitter place like Chahar did not have much industry.
Even if Yang Xin had the help of the Iron Ambition system, he could not shorten the gap with the world powers. Others could already produce cannons and warships, but he could only barely produce ordinary industrial products. The gap was too big.
The establishment of a large number of factories required a large number of raw materials. Among them, the most important was steel. Steel was known as the backbone of the industry and represented the strength of a country. It had an important significance in this era.
Especially the demand for steel for the various machines in the report, which had almost become an unsolvable knot. At this time, the controlling rights of China's steel companies were in the hands of the foreign powers. Occasionally, there were small steel factories that produced steel that did not meet the standards and could not be used. They had to undergo secondary processing, but that was too troublesome.
"It seems like we really have to make a move on Jiu Yuan.”Yang Xin muttered.
In the Chahar region, only Jiuyuan in the west had rich iron ore resources. After all, steel was an important pillar industry for the entire industrial development. It had to be solved as soon as possible. He did not want to learn from Japan, where even steel was limited by America.
However, there was a problem with the iron ore in Jiuyuan, which was that the sulfur content was relatively high. How to reduce the sulfur content was the key to steel production.
Fortunately, the system's civilian factories could perfectly solve this problem. The system produced the best quality steel. Whether it was used to make cannons or tanks, they were all made of the best quality steel.
"What a headache. How much money do we have left?”Although the civilian factories could be directly converted into steel factories, other supporting facilities required Yang Xin's investment.
"Young Master, our finances have already collapsed. We have less than 10,000 yuan left.”Yang Song sighed and said.
Hearing this, Yang Xin was stunned. He opened his mouth wide and said in disbelief,"How is that possible? Just ten thousand? Didn't Li Bin give him hundreds of thousands of yuan again?”
Who knew that Yang Song would say rudely,"Young Master, you don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil, and salt are. You need money everywhere. Hundreds of thousands of yuan are used up in less than two days. Now, all the factories are asking for money to expand, but I stopped them.”
