As soon as Chen Yaozu shouted, the power supply to the workshop was stopped before the factory safety officer opened the switch.
Su Shu saw that the lights on the roof of the workshop went out and all the indicators in the direction of the control cabinet stopped flashing.
He felt relieved now that they didn't have to worry about electric shock due to leakage of equipment.
Su Shu immediately stepped forward to observe the electrocuted reporter.
When he was learning about electricity, he learned that the injury was most serious when he was first shocked.
As long as you don't die immediately when you are electrocuted, the probability of death later is not high.
Su Shu saw a male reporter in his mid-twenties, looking at the burnt middle finger of his right hand, gritting his teeth and groaning.
When he saw this situation, he knew that the reporter's life was basically not in danger.
But he must be treated in time, otherwise his right hand will become infected, which will be a fatal disease.
Su Shu immediately ordered: "Hurry and wait for this reporter, go to the nearest hospital for observation, let the doctor judge the condition of the finger, and get timely treatment."
The factory representatives and the reporter's companions carried the injured reporter to the hospital for treatment.
When reporters saw this unexpected situation, they fixed their eyes on Chen Yaozu, as if they had discovered a big news.
"Manager Chen, isn't the power plant too dangerous? Workers often die in the factory."
"Manager Chen, do you usually come to the power plant? You are not afraid of being hurt."
Chen Yaozu knew that these reporters did not dare to interview the eldest prince Su Shu, so they could only use him as a breakthrough.
When he was hesitating about what to say, a middle-aged man wearing a bachelor's robe stood up.
He first introduced himself: "Hello, fellow reporters, I am a technical consultant in the power sector of the industrial zone.
Xu Wenhai, deputy director of electromagnetic locks at the Royal Academy of Sciences.
Dear reporters, I can answer all the questions you just asked."
Xu Wenhai stood up and drew all the attention to himself.
He must stand up and not let reporters report randomly.
He also received a salary from the industrial zone. When encountering a crisis, solving the problem firsthand is what he should do.
Xu Wenhai appeared, he is a scholar in this field.
The reporters who had cameras and video cameras all pointed their lenses at Xu Wenhai, and the other reporters took out their notebooks and recorded what Xu Wenhai said.
Xu Wenhai said: “Electricity is actually very safe, and we have applied various methods to ensure the safety of electricity use.
Nowadays, all important cities and wealthy families are equipped with electric lights.
Our Royal Academy of Sciences has published many popular science articles in newspapers on how to use electricity safely.
The wires are wrapped with insulating materials such as rubber. As long as the metal wires inside are not touched, the wires are very safe to use.
I just saw the reporter who got electrocuted. He touched the control box in front of him out of curiosity.
There are many contacts connecting wires there, which is equivalent to contact with exposed wires, which causes it to get an electric shock.
But it was the factory's protection mechanism that caused the circuit to be disconnected the moment he got an electric shock."
While Xu Wenhai was introducing, he walked to the control box in the production workshop.
He pointed to the two pieces of equipment that the wires first came into contact with when they first entered the production workshop.
"This is a fuse, which is found in many people's homes. It is made of metals with low melting points such as lead and tin.
When a short circuit occurs in the circuit, the fuse will blow directly to ensure the safety of the circuit.
Below the fuse is a protective relay.
It is a relatively special electromagnet.
The neutral wire and live wire are wrapped around the iron pillar through a special winding method.
When current flows through the neutral wire and live wire at the same time, the magnetic forces formed by the coils cancel each other out, the electromagnet has no magnetic force, and the circuit conducts normally.
When someone gets an electric shock, the current only flows through the live wire, but does not flow back through the neutral wire.
This directly causes the electromagnet to generate magnetic force, attracting the pin and breaking the circuit.
This action occurs almost instantaneously, which can ensure the safety of the person receiving an electric shock.
Electric shock outside can cause death, but if you get an electric shock in an industrial area, you will most likely only suffer minor injuries."
After Xu Wenhai's introduction, they calmed down after thinking that their colleague was fine.
The reporters followed the officials in the industrial zone and began to walk out of the factory to take pictures of the distinctive places in the industrial zone.
Chen Yaozu looked at Xu Wenhai gratefully. He immediately walked to Su Shu's side, bowed 90 degrees and said, "Sir, I didn't manage it well and almost caused a big problem."
Su Shu waved his hand and said: "This is an unexpected event that no one can predict in advance.
You have been running for the industrial zone during this period, and this government has seen it."
When Chen Yaozu heard what Su Shu said, he slowly stood up and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He was most afraid of all the sacrifices he had made over the past few months, because this little thing today could be ruined in one day.
When Su Shu left the factory, he said excitedly: "We were able to build a complete factory building in a short period of time, and there were no problems with the formal production equipment.
Your efforts during this period have not been in vain, and the achievements of the industrial zone will always be yours."
When everyone heard Su Shu's statement, they all applauded enthusiastically.
People who do things are most afraid of doing things well, but they don't get any credit and are directly picked by others.
Now that the eldest prince Su Shu has made such a promise, they are not afraid of anyone coming to pick peaches.
They continued to visit the industrial area, which was mostly newly leveled wasteland.
When the reporters left the industrial area, they followed them on their bikes back to Tongzhou County.
When Su Shu returned to Tongzhou County, he did not attend Du Huaiyun's banquet and took a car to return to Shuntianfu.
Su Shu, the prefect of Shuntian, and Zhou Baixin, the master, were sitting in the car. They used the roar of the car's huge steam to discuss the future development of the industrial zone without fear of the conversation being spread out.
Master Zhou Baixin asked worriedly: "Sir, the plan to build the industrial zone is very different from the plan we came up with.
Especially in terms of budget, overspending is expected to be very serious.
Before the establishment of the industrial zone, we did not expect that there would be no unified standards for power plants in various places.
The main use of electricity is to light electric lamps. As long as it can generate electricity, no matter how big the difference in voltage, current and frequency is, it will not have a big impact on incandescent lamps.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Even the electricity generated by the same power plant has different voltages and currents at different times.
This situation is completely unfeasible in an industrial area.
Electricity standards in industrial areas must be unified, which is conducive to designing the working status of motors and ensuring the safe use of electrical appliances.
Industrial areas can only choose to build their own power plants to provide power to the industrial areas and unify the voltage and frequency of electricity.
With the funds allocated by the imperial court, after the construction of the power plant, only one factory was left.
Now these funds have bottomed out, sir, if we don’t think of a way out, we won’t even be able to pay for the project next month.”
Su Shu never thought that one day he would worry about money.
Three million taels of silver coins have been poured into the industrial zone, and we don’t know how many silver coins will be swallowed up yet.
When the imperial court initially allocated funds for the project, it only allocated four million taels of silver coins.
But Su Shu must not stop. He really squandered three million taels of silver coins from the court, and he will definitely not be able to become the crown prince.
No official in the court could accept such a prince. It was like putting the word "foolish emperor" directly on his head.
Su Shu is also a little worried now. The only people who can solve his financial gap are his father and the queen.
My father must have noticed that the funds allocated by the court were not enough, and this was a test for him.
Su Shu immediately went to the palace and prepared to seek help from Queen Wang Wenjun.
Mothers are usually very familiar with their son's state.
When Queen Wang Wenjun saw the performance of the eldest prince Su Shu, she knew that the eldest prince Su Shu was encountering difficulties.
She sat down and drank a cup of tea and asked directly: "Shu'er, you, the magistrate of Shuntian Prefecture, have become famous outside. What problems are you encountering now?"
Su Shu briefly told his mother the problems he was encountering now.
He drank a cup of tea helplessly and said: "Mother, I think this situation is a test for me from my father.
There is so much money needed next, I really don’t know where to get it.”
After Queen Wang Wenjun finished listening, his hearty laughter resounded throughout the room.
"Su Shu, you don't know enough about the officialdom of the empire.
This is also because of your mother. The staff chosen for you are all unsatisfactory petty officials in the officialdom.
They don't know much about the situation in the empire.
The empire's current tax revenue is only enough to build two or three industrial zones.
The empire's tax revenue was much less than it is now, so how could it be possible to build so many industrial zones in one go?"
Queen Wang Wenjun said it so clearly that Su Shu reacted immediately.
"Mother, you mean to use other people's money to develop our business."
Queen Wang Wenjun nodded and said: "Even in heavy industries with very long return cycles, some private businessmen have invested heavily.
The industrial zone developed by Shu'er should be mainly based on light industry.
There are very few government-run factories in this kind of industrial zone, and factories are mainly built with private funding.
This is called attracting investment. If you build a well-built sycamore tree, it will definitely attract golden phoenixes."
The eldest prince Su Shu immediately stood up excitedly and said excitedly: "Mother, I completely know what to do."
Queen Wang Wenjun finally solemnly confessed: "You can never make enough money, so don't take money too seriously.
Appropriate distribution of profits to those around you will allow them to follow you, or at least not become an obstacle to you."
Su Shu nodded seriously and said: "Mother, I understand all these principles and I will arrange everything."
He found a solution to the problem and immediately started to visit the cabinet, the State Administration of Taxation and other yamen.
Su Shu asked these officials for money or policies.
It is impossible for these yamen to give money. Su Shu personally investigated cases of budget embezzlement some time ago.
Many officials were dismissed from office because of this situation.
How could they turn to the gun again and choose to give up the policy one after another?
The main purpose of Su Shu is to obtain relevant policies.
His reasons are also very good. They, the industrial zone specially approved by the emperor, must have the policies that other industrial zones should have.
The Electric Power Industrial Zone has all the preferential policies. This news did not need to be publicized by Su Shu, and it was immediately known to many businessmen.
The threshold of Shuntian government office was almost broken by these businessmen.
A preferential treatment for industrial zones: tax exemption for three years and half tax for five years.
Under the empire's strict tax law system, this discount can make businessmen flock to it. Even if the factory in the industrial zone has not been built, they dare to invest hundreds of thousands of taels of silver coins.
When Master Zhou Baixin saw the generous businessman, he said in surprise: "My lord, you have a clever idea. Plant a sycamore tree and attract a golden phoenix."
With the help of these businessmen, the problems encountered in the industrial zone were easily solved.
It turns out that only a few policies are needed to solve the shortage of funds without the need for us to invest any money ourselves."
After master Zhou Baixin was amazed, he asked doubtfully: "Sir, there are businessmen subscribing to every corner of the industrial zone.
Several established core areas and core technologies in the industrial zone have yet to be purchased by businessmen."
Zhou Baixin didn't quite understand that they wanted to develop the industrial zone in a short time.
Constantly inspected the Royal Academy of Sciences and Hua Xia University and purchased a lot of technology.
Just to create core products and make the industrial zone the most shining industrial zone in the northern part of the empire.
Su Shu said calmly: "I have already made arrangements for these things."
He took out a stack of invitations from the drawer and ordered: "Mr. Zhou, go and deliver these invitations in person."
Zhou Baixin accepted the invitation. The owners on the invitation were all members of the clan, important ministers of the empire and confidants of the eldest prince Su Shu.
He also saw an invitation addressed to him at the bottom.
Zhou Baixin took over this task and went door-to-door to deliver invitations on behalf of the eldest prince Su Shu.
No one refused the invitations sent by the eldest prince Su Shu.
Even if these people don't want to participate in the fight for the heir, they will never be stupid enough to directly offend a prince who is expected to inherit the throne.
Zhou Baixin opened the last invitation and saw that it was about an auction for a factory in the Electric Power Industrial Zone.
He has been busy for a long time and knows that these factories are the core factories in the industrial zone.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As long as the industrial zone is operating normally, these core factories will have no worries about business and will definitely make a lot of money.
This invitation letter is the ticket to auction the technology you like.
…………………………
Su Shu looked at the fierce bidding venue. The people he invited were the top families in the urban empire.
Even if these people don't understand the situation in the industrial area, they can still ask someone who knows the industry for advice.
These people basically know the value of factories with attached technologies in industrial areas.
Su Shu shared the core value of the industrial zone with these families in order to use money to pave the way for himself.
The auction was very intense, but the families who came to the auction were all reputable families, and they would not do anything outrageous.
After the auction ended, Su Shu also gathered a large amount of silver coins, which were basically invested in the industrial zone.
Uncle doesn't need to pay attention to other people who arrive.
He was accompanied by a middle-aged man in a wheelchair who looked a little tired.
This middle-aged man is extremely obese and looks to weigh 240 to 50 pounds.
I can't even walk very steadily, so I have to use a wheelchair.
Su Shu smiled on the side and said: "Uncle Ying, why did you come in person for this trivial matter? You can easily solve this matter by sending a housekeeper."
Su Ying held on to the armrests of his wheelchair. He tried to stand up many times, but he still couldn't stand up after trying.
He smiled bitterly and said: "I know my body, and the doctors are helpless about my current situation.
I could only take a look at the empire's great lands while I could still move my body. We made the right choice at that time.
See the growth of you juniors. This great country must not be left in the hands of fools."
Su Shu listened to Yuan Guogong Su Ying's feeble words.
His uncle was seriously ill when he was a young man and died soon.
Su Shu accompanied Yuan Guogong Su Ying to let him see the industrial development of the empire.
When Su Ying saw the production efficiency of the factory in the electric power industrial zone, he laughed a few times and left the industrial zone happily.
