Chapter 1080: Midtown Development
More than 200,000 rural households have moved into the completed houses, and the project is progressing very quickly thanks to the efforts of tens of thousands of people.
This also means that most of the labor force in the construction team of tens of thousands of people is about to face unemployment, and the people of the Central Plains District will be sent to the meeting.
Many people are hopeful, working in Youzhou has increased their knowledge, and many novel gadgets and many business ideas are well remembered by many people.
With the money earned from working during this time, they started a small business and lived their own life after returning home.
Among them, many people have taken a fancy to the tofu on the street, and they have already asked if they want to buy a tofu workshop without spending too much, and the main wooden planks can be made by those who have the skills themselves, and the key is the materials and craftsmanship of making their own tofu.
They consulted about the tofu making process, and the improved process was sold in the castle guard, so as long as they paid some money to buy a patent, they could go back and try to make it themselves.
Many vendors started their business with a similar situation and no capital, and they all started from little by little.
There are also many people who know that the taverns in Youzhou need chickens, ducks, geese and other livestock, and if they are willing to raise them, they will not worry about selling.
Someone has calculated that if all the money they earn in a few months is used to breed these chickens, ducks and geese, they can be sent to the restaurant in Youzhou at one time when they grow up, and they can earn at least double the money.
However, many people are not optimistic about breeding, after all, their food and clothing need to be solved, let alone raising livestock, and most people feel that it is not worth it.
Because they used to be too poor, they would pay more attention to the vendor business in Youzhou, and many vendors' business was not complicated, such as barbecue was the simplest in their memory.
If you want to run a barbecue stall well, you will also want to sell ingredients and flavors, and it depends on their craftsmanship.
Some people don't plan to go back and stay in Youzhou to work, and most of the people who decide to stay have joined the construction team of businessmen, and some people go to work.
After sending the people of Midtown back, the business income of the store opened by Li Xiuning increased significantly, and many of the people who returned became small vendors.
Improved tofu appeared in Midtown, and many restaurants came to order, and it took less than a month from a small vendor to run a tofu factory.
When I decided to do this business, I made a lot of determination, and I thought that because it was the first time to make tofu, I received an order from a restaurant.
Not only that, the largest order came from the engineering team's canteen, whose tofu needed to supply hundreds of thousands of people, so he quickly recruited a large number of people to make it.
At first, the supply could not meet the demand, and then he ruthlessly took the order directly to Zhongcheng Qianzhuang for a loan, and then expanded from a tofu workshop with dozens of people to a large tofu factory with hundreds of people.
All the tofu made every day was supplied to the construction team, and it took a month to pay off the loan, and the number of people in the tofu workshop continued to increase.
The production is increasing day by day, and even the tofu is sold to nearby cities and counties.
The momentum of development is very strong, but it is unknown whether it will be a flash in the pan, after all, the construction period of the engineering team will be completed sooner or later, and the supply customers of the tofu factory will become the people of the city.
Can such a large-scale good tofu factory continue to operate?
The tofu factory in Midtown is a special case with relatively rapid development, but there are still many small businesses brought back from Youzhou that are being engaged, which is also a process of economic recovery.
After returning from the migrant workers, many people in Midtown began to use bicycles, and some of them were engaged in the sale of tricycles.
Sometimes if the city guard government does not intervene, you don't know what the city will develop, for example, Li De really let the city guard government intervene and directly opened four large rice and grain shops in the middle city.
The price of grain is parity, the price of basic living materials is guaranteed, and the people will not panic if they have cheap food.
In addition to rice grains, a large local oil refinery has been built to produce edible oil, and the current soybean production is more than enough to meet the demand.
If another one is opened, it is estimated that there will be a shortage of raw materials, and the project of planting soybeans has never stopped, and businessmen are reluctant to invest, but the city guard must invest.
When enough benefits are generated, everything will be easy.
Edible oil, most of the people are still using vegetable oil and meat oil, how can the food culture promoted by Li De not have an edible oil project.
At present, there are many types of edible oil in Youzhou, such as peanut oil, rapeseed oil, meat oil, and soybean oil, and corn production will also be used to extract oil after the scale is formed.
The fried chicken restaurant in Youzhou uses soybean oil, and the raw materials are in the northern Liaoning region, and some of them are near the fishing city, and then there is the southern Xinjiang city.
These cash crops are the top projects of local development, although there are raw materials to supply edible oil workshops in Youzhou to refine, but the price is still relatively expensive, and many people are still willing to use vegetable oil.
However, the restaurant food workshop uses soybean oil for production.
The establishment of an oil refining workshop in Zhongcheng is also to solve the problem of edible oil for the people in the Central Plains, and in fact, what Li De promoted in Youzhou was meat oil.
Due to the size of the pig farm, the production of refined meat oil is increasing every year, and the price is a little more expensive, but it is more suitable to rely on it.
Moreover, meat oil is easy to store, not only edible in winter, but also applied to the skin to prevent skin freezing and cracking, mainly for people who have been working outside for a long time.
After Li Deton's arrangement, the development of Midtown has been accelerated again, because the workshops established by the city guard will develop together with many industries.
After oil refining, soybean residues are the best ingredients used to feed livestock after forming soybean cakes, and they form an industrial chain together with the breeding plant.
Moreover, soybean self-made soybean milk is also the favorite drink of the people, especially the soybean milk with added sugar is currently only sold by vendors in Youzhou, and all soybean milk is soybean milk powder produced by non-staple food processing plants.
Buy it back and cook it and take it out for sale, two pennies a small bowl, three pennies with sugar, and the fried fritters with breakfast are simply an indispensable delicacy for breakfast.
Of course, it is only sold in Youzhou, but after Zhongcheng has an oil refinery, soybean oil and soybean milk can be purchased locally, which can attract street vendors to operate by saving costs.
Midtown is changing day by day, and the flow of people is gradually increasing, and the number of shops opened by merchants is gradually increasing.
Business at Midtown's only mall is getting better day by day.
The goods produced by the workshops in Zhongcheng began to supply Taiyuan Prefecture, and the local economy in the south and other places did not need to be taken care of by the Youzhou City Guard.
Next, it is up to the local city guard to develop.
Although it can only be regarded as just beginning, as long as you give Zhongcheng time to develop, it may not become the second Youzhou in a few years.
