The appearance of talcum powder, it can be said that Zou Yu was overjoyed, immediately let people mine a large number of people, of course, this must be careful, can not be mixed with asbestos, that thing is harmful to the human body, it is said to be carcinogenic, Zou Yu does not know whether it is true or false, but rather believe it, not believe it.

The second function of talcum powder, of course, is for babies, in this era, there is no fan air conditioning, even if some rich and noble people, in the summer, babies have prickly heat, it is normal.

Talcum powder is colorless and odorless, and it is very delicate, which has the effect of clearing heat and relieving itching, reducing dampness and sores, and is said to prevent bacteria from entering the body. It can be said that it is the best companion item for newborn babies.

The baby has prickly heat, itchy and painful, the pain can be imagined, and the baby is small, unable to speak, and unable to scratch, so he can only cry all the time. The normal practice can only be gently wiped with warm water, which will definitely not last long, but with talcum powder, it will definitely be different, and wiping it a few times a day is enough.

There is no parent who does not feel sorry for their children, so talcum powder will appear as a reward commodity under Zou Yu's rule.

The last effect, of course, is to sell for money, add a little musk, plus dyeing minerals, which can completely replace the current blush. The current blush is a kind of annatto seed, and when applied to it, it is certainly not as uniform and natural as talcum powder and minerals.

With the addition of musk, there is still a certain fragrance, as for saying that minerals are not good for the skin, then a little bit, it must be fine, there are so many cosmetics in later generations, which one does not have minerals, and women are not living well.

Although it takes a lot of energy to manage a huge territory, it is much easier to mobilize resources, and there are more products and manpower. The most convenient point is that the population is not large, and the management is convenient, and each county has only a small population, and it is relatively much easier to centralize management and development.

The whole north seems to have fallen into a boom of large-scale development all at once, and everyone is working hard. The people are for a better life, the officials are for promotion, and they all know that the real master must be Prime Minister Zou Yu, and Zou Yu is pragmatic, this is a point that everyone understands, don't you see that the original officials need to participate in training and assessment.

As early as a year ago, Zou Yu ordered the statistics of the population, land type, mineral deposits, and grain of each county, and the biggest surprise was coal and iron mines, the most was coal mines, and the prefecture, Mayi, these places were found in many places one after another.

Only then did Zou Yu remember that this area was clearly one of the places where the coal mines themselves were stored the most in Shanxi in the future.

In the past, people used it less, because coal mines are not easy to burn, and people die of carbon poisoning every year. Now it's different, the treated coal, which burns easily and lasts for a long time, has been well received by everyone at once. In particular, the use of waterwheels is more convenient than manual labor and livestock.

Coal has been used on a large scale, which not only facilitates the people, but also drives various workshops and kilns. If it is firewood, it has to be burned a little bit, and there is no concern about this at all with coal, and the firing of brick kilns, tile kilns, and porcelain from the government has never been broken.

Zou Yu didn't have so many requirements for porcelain firing, as long as it was fired, because his goal was to make porcelain, bowls, plates, cups, and bottles available to everyone. He didn't want the people to still use wood, pottery, and other rudimentary things.

Porcelain is fired, except for some exquisite ones that are used to sell as commodities, most of them are used as wages, half sold and half given away to benefit the people.

In just a few months, all kinds of industries have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, although the people have not made much money, but the goods at home have gradually become richer, and they are more like a home than the previous four walls.

Because of the large use of coal, first of all, it saves firewood, but also saves the time of the people to find firewood, and most of the crop poles that were originally made for firewood can be used to raise livestock, which is a virtuous circle.

In the fourteenth year of the Great Cause, it was also the first year of Yining, with the death of Yang Guang, although all parts of the country called the king and the emperor, but it was not so chaotic, it seemed that everyone didn't want to fight all of a sudden, and the forces around the country were honestly staying in their own territory, whether it was boring development, or licking their wounds, no one provoked a battle anyway, even Wang Shichong and Li Mi, who were the most lively, did not do anything, not even a little friction.

Jinyang! Tang Wangfu! This is a palace without a royal palace, and it is just a little larger than the mansion of ordinary people.

"They are all waiting, waiting for the first person to come out, and they are also waiting for the next move of the Poye family." Regarding the general trend of the world, Fang Xuanling speculated.

Looking at the group of people in the hall, they have all darkened a lot, and they have obviously been busy outside recently. Today's meeting was held in the palace, and most of the people from the small court of Jinyang came.

As for why it wasn't discussed in the palace, it was because Zou Yu didn't want to get those red tapes, and Yang Yu, the son of Yining, also issued an edict, and the prime minister was solely responsible for general matters, and only needed to hold two court meetings every month, the first meeting of the second day of the first month, and the month-end summary of the twenty-nineth.

When a meeting is held in the palace, it is not so formal, and the conference hall is specially made, with a long table with smoke, leather chairs, and tea in front of everyone.

Although tea is not produced in the north, it does not affect Zou Yu and them, after all, it is still a simple matter to get a little bit, so I specially found a merchant and bought a batch.

In this era, drinking tea is boiled tea, and salt, milk, and ginger are added to it, and Zou Yu is a little unaccustomed to drinking it. As for roasted tea, firstly, he still doesn't know how to get it, and secondly, there are not so many materials to experiment. But there is a fermentation method, and he happens to know, this method is very simple, and that is steaming.

Now the tea leaves are picked, dried in the shade, and according to the later classification, they belong to raw tea. If raw tea is brewed and drunk directly, it is a little bitter, and like ordinary plant leaves, it is a bit weird, so it is not surprising to add seasonings to boil.

Raw tea is slightly steamed, then kneaded into strips by hand and dried to make it the simplest fermented tea. Of course, later generations are made by machines, and now the amount is small, and it is okay to rub it by hand, if the amount is large, then there is no need to rub, and it can be dried. If the steamed tea is directly pressed into mold, it is the most convenient tea brick to store and transport.

The difference between fermented tea and roasted tea is that roasted tea is the best new tea, and the more fermented tea is stored, the more fragrant it is, the taste is different, and the effect is naturally different, which depends on personal hobbies.

Outside the conference room, the well water pumped up to the roof by the waterwheel flowed down the eaves, taking away all the heat of early summer.
