Three Kingdoms: Liu Daer Was Forced Out of the Mountain at the Beginning

Chapter 1298: recruit

Under Bai Feng's orders, the servants of the Houfu of Hanzhong quickly prepared a notice to recruit miners.

Soon all the people in the city saw the notice posted on the notice board to recruit miners.

"Mining, although Hanzhong Hou's treatment is very good, but I'm not interested."

After reading the notice again, a citizen shook his head and walked away.

After reading the notice, most of the people have no interest in mining, even if they are mining for Bai Feng, and the treatment is still very good.

The main reason is that the people in Hanzhong are living a good life. Even if the pay for mining Bai Feng is higher than the remuneration for the work they are currently doing, most people do not choose to mine.

The main reason is that the risk of mining is still too high, and now only when some prisoners are dealt with will they be allowed to mine.

So the notice of recruiting miners was posted for several days, and few people came to sign up.

"It's not like this!"

After Bai Feng learned about the recent recruitment situation from Jiading's mouth, he couldn't help thinking.

Originally, Bai Feng thought that he had given such generous treatment, and it was not easy to recruit a group of miners.

I didn't expect that I let the people of Hanzhong live so well. Even if they were given generous treatment, most of the people in Hanzhong did not have the will to mine.

"It looks like I'm going to Yizhou to recruit workers this time..."

In the end, Bai Feng decided to go to Yizhou. If the salary of recruiting miners was raised again, Bai Feng's current money would be stretched.

After all, the R&D center, Yamatai, and nitroglycerin/dynamite workshops all require a lot of money.

Although the soap workshop and steam engine production line can bring great profits to Bai Feng.

But after Bai Feng started the mine, these ores were not sold at all, but were reserved for the construction of railways and for the R&D center.

It can be said that every penny invested in the mine is a cost and no profit.

So Bai Feng sent people to Yizhou to recruit miners.

Of course, the treatment of recruiting miners in Yizhou is not as good as in Hanzhong.

However, the basic treatment of food and shelter remains unchanged.

At the same time, Bai Feng also sent a letter to Xiahou Dun, explaining why he was recruiting miners in Yizhou.

After all, it is still unrealistic for the people to move freely, and Bai Feng needs a lot of miners.

After receiving a letter from Bai Feng explaining that, Xiahou Dun wrote back directly to Bai Feng, and he could recruit as many miners as he wanted.

This is mainly because Bai Feng explained to Xiahou Dun that recruiting miners to mine is mainly to increase the output of the steam engine production line.

And Xiahou Dun also learned that Bai Feng will build a new steam engine production line at the end of this year, and put it into production early next year.

After the servants of the Houfu of Hanzhong who went to Yizhou to recruit miners, after posting the recruitment notice, some Yizhou people came to sign up soon.

For the people of Yizhou villages and towns, the treatment for Bai Feng mining is still very good.

Even if there is a danger of injury, it is a good job to earn more than twenty taels of silver every year.

In fact, Bai Feng always went to Yizhou to recruit workers. A very important reason was that after the unification of the world by the Great Wei Dynasty, the population of Yizhou recovered quickly.

Originally, Chengdu was known as the Land of Abundance, and it was very important to cultivate it.

In addition, the high-quality grains that Bai Feng exchanged from the system have already spread throughout Dawei, so the Yizhou population who can eat enough will naturally recover faster than other states and counties in Dawei.

Therefore, a part of Yizhou's population has now begun to go to other states and counties to make a living.

Of course, there are still very few people in this group.

One is because of the restriction of Dawei's household registration policy, and the other is because most of these people are businessmen.

The Yizhou people who were going to go to Hanzhong for mining have been sent to Hanzhong in batches by the servants of the Houfu of Hanzhong.

Because Bai Feng is recruiting miners, he has built mines in places rich in iron ore resources based on the Hanzhong mineral distribution map obtained in the system lottery before.

And dormitories have also been built around the mine.

Now even without nitroglycerin/dynamite for mining, new mines can start.

For mining and smelting, Bai Feng's plan is naturally to be as fast as possible.

Therefore, the first two batches of more than 100 miners who came from Yizhou have now started mining in the mines.

This time, Bai Feng plans to recruit at least 500 miners from Yizhou.

At present, 30% of this goal has been achieved with the efforts of the Hanzhong Houfu family members in Yizhou.

The people who came to Hanzhong from Yizhou, when they came to the mine, found that their treatment was the same as that of the housekeepers in the Houfu of Hanzhong before, without any discount.

Whether it is food and housing, or the intensity of labor, they are very satisfied.

Soon, the three iron ore plants in Hanzhong began to carry out the next step of mining work.

After finishing the miners and mines, Bai Feng returned to Yamatai again, and brought back a few craftsmen who were good at blast furnace construction from Yamatai.

With iron ore, it is natural to smelt it.

The efficiency of the blast furnace is much faster than the traditional smelting method used by Dawei now, and the impurities in the smelted iron ingots are relatively good.

After that, four groups of Yizhou people came to the mine in Hanzhong one after another.

Bai Feng heard the report that day, and the last group of people who came to Hanzhong from Yizhou also arrived at the mine.

So Bai Feng came to the mine to see how the mining was going.

After arriving at the mine, what caught Bai Feng's eyes were the miners who were saluting and allocating dormitories.

Under the arrangement of the foreman, the miners were chatting and laughing carrying their luggage and heading to the assigned dormitory.

Bai Feng didn't bother the foreman who assigned the dormitories to the miners, and walked around the mine by himself.

"It seems that the miners recruited from Yizhou, UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com are quite satisfied with the conditions of the Hanzhong mine."

"You'll be more satisfied when you mine with nitroglycerin/dynamite."

Bai Feng thought in his heart.

Before leaving the mine, Bai Feng also planned to build rails on the mine.

This not only facilitates the transportation of the mined iron ore, but also directly transports the smelted iron ingots to the R&D center.

"Well, it looks like the steam train will come in handy soon!"

Bai Feng has already planned to use steam trains to transport iron ingots, and also to transport coal in the future.

This time, Bai Feng only carried out iron ore mining first.

As for coal mines, they are not so anxious, because after more and more steam looms have been put into use, under the organization of Xiahou Dun, Yizhou has begun to vigorously mine coal in Yizhou.

Bai Feng, who had given Xiahou Dun a few carriages of coal before, now buys coal from Xiahou Dun.
