It is said that only 300 people are collected, but in the end it is likely that they will have to be overstocked.

Since the notice was posted, people have come to inquire every day, including many merchants from other places, and even porters and others.

Now these people know that they can get access to the most advanced new textile machine technology in Roche Machinery Shop. They can make a lot of money in the future, even for themselves, and they will send their daughters in.

In the past two years, Hedong Road and the Central Plains have been closely connected. First, the earliest cement road was paved, and the earliest logistics express delivery appeared, and then many needle workshops were established.

There are frequent pedestrians and goods between Hedong and Chang'an City. Many people who rarely go out also follow relatives, friends or familiar merchants to make a living in Chang'an.

Luo Yong once sent a threshing machine on Hedong Road, and he has benefited so far. The people of Hedong mentioned Luo Yong, but they did not say anything bad. They have always trusted the Luo family very much.

This time, Luoshi Machinery Floor said he wanted to recruit people. Many people from Hedong didn't think about it and said they wanted to go home to pick up their daughters. He heard that there was an anxious person and set off that day. In the days that followed, many people left together one after another.

Luo Yong looked at this situation and knew that 300 places would not be enough this time. It is probably not enough to add 300 more.

After thinking about it, Luo Yong had to borrow money again. He borrowed a lot of money from Si Niang, bought a batch of fine iron with merchants from Hedong, and placed it in the Engineering and Luoshi Machinery Shop to process it separately, and asked them to make it into steel bars.

When this incident reached the emperor, the old emperor called Luo Yong to ask him what he wanted to do this time.

Luo Yong said that Luo Family Machinery Floor was preparing for autumn recruitment, and many Hedong elders were going to send their daughters, and 300 places were definitely not enough. The Luo Family Floor was only so big, and the neighbors around him had no intention of selling their houses, so he had to build the house higher and build a few more two-story and three-story buildings, which would probably accommodate so many people.

When the old emperor heard this, he nodded, and said nothing more, only: "The iron price in Chang'an has been quite expensive recently."

When it comes to this iron price, Luo Yong was also worried: "It's really expensive."

When I was building a railway from Chang'an to Luoyang last time, because the Zheng family in Xingyang saved a lot of iron in advance, the court negotiated with their family members to negotiate the price. In addition, there was already a accumulation in the national treasury, so the construction of that railway did not affect the price of iron in the market.

This time, the railway was built from Luoyang and the east, and many fine irons were bought directly from merchants. This has caused the iron prices on the market to rise steadily, which has been particularly high recently.

I originally thought that today's conversation would be over here, but before leaving, the old emperor said to him again: "I heard that there are many rivers and canals along the railway track, and now I plan to build a Jingtioxue Bridge."

Luo Yong didn't think much about it at the time, but just said a few words casually. Then he saw that the old emperor seemed to have nothing to say, so he took his leave.

After leaving the palace, he was going down the steps. With a tingling sound in his mind, he became enlightened. The old emperor gave him some rumor in advance!

At this time, the climate was still very humid. From Luoyang to the east, there were many forests, swamps, rivers and canals.

For example, in the later generations of Juye County and Yuncheng County in Shandong Province, and in the middle of Liangshan County, there was a huge water sieve, which people at that time called Juyeze or Oyeze.

This time, the railway was built east of Luoyang. Originally, it was said that it would build Onozawa, and Onozawa could connect to the canal. After pedestrians and carriages arrived here through wooden rail carriages, they could be replaced with waterways and traveled to north and south through the Grand Canal.

However, many officials from Jiangnan and major families strongly opposed it. If they wanted to transfer to waterways from Onozawa, what would be the convenience of their Jiangnan Road? Their ultimate goal was to get the railway tracks in Luoyang to directly connect to Jiangnan Road. Otherwise, they would not pay.

After several discussions, the final plan was that the section from Luoyang to Bianzhou remained unchanged. The railway tracks on the east side of Bianzhou did not go along the Baiqu to Oyezawa in the northeast, but went southeast and built all the way to Xuzhou.

Xuzhou is much farther from Bianzhou than from Onozawa, and Xuzhou now belongs to Henan Road. From Henan Road to Jiangnan Road, there is also a Huainan Road in the middle. Fortunately, Xuzhou is also on the canal and is quite close to Jiangnan prefectures, which is also the result of compromise between the two sides.

It is also said that the climate is humid at this time, and there are many waters in the Central Plains. According to their original plan, if they encounter small ditches and small canals, they will build bridges on them. If they encounter large rivers and lakes, they will surround them, and if they can, they will build ferries if they can.

In the future, whenever the carriages on this railway track arrive at these ferries, they will take off the tracks, use large ships, horses, carriages and pedestrians and cargoes to transport them to the opposite ferry by large ships, and then go on the railway tracks and continue on the road.

Although this method works, it is very troublesome. There were also those knowledgeable people earlier. Daonaro Saburo once asked a Jingti Bridge to be built on the ditch between Dunhuang and Gaochang, which spanned several feet of the Grand Canyon. The canyon was deep and dangerous. They only took more than a month to repair the bridge. This bridge is very famous in Hexi.

However, most of the people in charge of this road construction are safe and mature figures, and they do not believe that there is any simple convenience in this world.

I heard the name of "Jing Tie Bridge" and said that the entire bridge must be built with Jing Tie. The budget for road construction this time is already tight, so how can I spend so much money?

Then Li Shi Luo Sanro is indeed a person who can make money, and he has never been a little unrestrained. He dares to do anything. Maybe he can really do the thing to cast a bridge with fine iron, but they definitely can't do that.

Earlier, a cross-bridge was built on the Luo Family Machinery Shop, and many officials in the court also went to see it.

Oh, it turns out that this Jingtie Bridge looks like this? It doesn’t use much Jingtie.

So many people spread the news to the road construction front and told them that this Jingtioxue Bridge was really convenient and the cost was not very large.

Immediately afterwards, the aristocratic merchants and wealthy families of the Huainan Road and the Henan Road of Jiangnan Road also began to protest, saying that there are many rivers and canals in the south. If their railway is built like this, they will always have to go off the railroad ferry crossing. What's the convenience? It's better to just take a boat all the way. In short, it's a saying that everyone unanimously requests the construction of the Jingtioxue Bridge.

The several officials responsible for the road construction are not very stubborn people, but also those who work diligently and devote themselves to repairing this railway.

After learning about this news, several officials have returned on a rail carriage recently and are about to arrive in Chang'an City.

No, the emperor had already learned about it. Today, Xun Luo used to ask questions, so he woke him up.

If you want the horse to run, you have to eat grass for the horse. The old emperor knew this truth well.

Luo Xuan hurried to the engineering side, Xunhou Lin and others explained the matter.

Hou Lin is also an old man in the officialdom. When he heard about this, he didn't understand anything. The officials who built roads wanted to build Jingtioxue Bridge. The entire Chang'an City would do this were Luo Yong's disciples, as well as students from the Engineering and Luo Family Machinery Workshop.

I guess those officials would not contact Luo Yong's disciples directly, nor would they consider Luo Family Machinery Shop, so the most likely thing is to borrow someone from the engineering side.

At this time, Luo Yong obviously wanted to promote his Luo Family Machinery Shop and find a way out for the women in the Machinery Shop. What should I do? Forced buy, sell, and sell bundled sales.

"Several work students bring a female student?" Hou Lin asked.

"Seven male students, three female students, and ten people in groups. Hengzhi and others will also go to Henan Road and lead each group to build bridges together. If anyone performs well, they can start from some small bridges first. Otherwise, they will continue to learn from the gentlemen." Luo Yong had already thought about these things on the way here.

Building a bridge is not a trivial matter. You cannot give it too hasty to some students who are not well-educated in their studies to take responsibility. You would rather spend more time than take risks.

Then there is the selection of people. Road and bridge and mechanical manufacturing are originally two different directions. The students on engineering and science often have their own emphasis. This time, the selection of people depends on the students' own wishes.

Of course, it is not possible to go wherever you want. One depends on their usual performance, and the other depends on their performance when they built the last time they built a crossing overpass.

Hengzhi and Hou Lin first selected a few students who performed well and were more suitable for development in the road and bridge field. They asked about their opinions, and then set up a general list.

Some students were well-informed, and at this time they heard the wind and heard that they were going to Henan Road to build a bridge for the railway tracks being laid. Everyone was very excited.

He also said that the female students from Luo Family Machinery Floor were going, and these young and young men were even more excited.

"I'm so happy. I dare to touch those female students and see if County Magistrate Luo won't peel you."

"Who said he was going to touch them?"

"I didn't say it."

"We didn't say anything, you just thought too much."

"Tsk tsk..."

"Beware that County Magistrate Luo has peeled you."

While I was happy, there were also some different voices. For example, there was a student who felt that the female students in Luoshi Machinery Store occupied their quota for engineering.

As a result, he was teased by other students: "Are you stupid to study? You also said that you are the biological son of Luo County Magistrate. Are the girls from Luo Family Machinery Floor adopted them?"

"Hahaha! What do you think, those women in Luo Family Machinery House are the biological children of Luo County Magistrate."

"After all, it's their Luo family's own machine shop."

"If the magistrate of Luo County is promoted in the future, he will feel that the position of PhD in engineering is burdened, so he will not say he will resign."

"What kind of rank do you think this PhD in Engineering is only?"

"It is hard to say that people from our engineering studies will get a little cheaper in the future."

"Don't say anything if the quota is occupied."

"It's important to have a good relationship."

"I can't tell you a job later."

"Hahaha, that's right!"

Most of the students in engineering and education are older than fourteen or five years old, and some are over twenties. A considerable number of them have already become families and have to shoulder the burden of supporting their families at a young age.

This time, most students were very happy to hear that they were going out to build bridges. After all, not all students can have a good development in mechanical manufacturing. For them, road and bridge construction is another way out, and this way out also looks like they can make money.

A few days later, the officials responsible for supervising the construction of railway tracks returned to Chang'an City and reported to the court. They met the saint again. The next morning, they came to the engineering side.

As soon as these people entered the engineering school, they saw that all the students were very happy and kept laughing at them, saying that these students were giggling foolishly.
Chapter completed!
