The first step of the plan is already established, but for the time being, there is no need to worry, everything is pre-planned, and if you don't prepare, you have to look for mines first-even if Gao Shishi knows where it is, he always has to send someone to find it, right?

And then you have to make or purchase equipment, recruit or recruit people, etc., anyway, there are a bunch of things to do first, it's not that you know that there is a mine here, and you can start mining directly tomorrow. Even if the preparations go well, I am afraid that it will be half a year before the start of work can begin. What's more, he plans to do several things at the same time, so it may take a little more time.

But there are other ways of thinking that can be used. If it is really in the future, so many mountains and forests, you can open up a part of them to plant cash crops, for example, the forest is a very good choice. In this area of western Beijing, apples, pears, walnuts, cherries and the like are all suitable for cultivation. As for the future sales place, the idea is naturally to rely on the capital and eat the capital.

The advantage of planting fruit trees is that they do not have to spend too much labor after planting, and most of the time, rural women and even half-grown children can take care of the eldest fruit forest. However, there is also a problem, that is, it takes a long time to select seedlings and grow and mature fruit trees.

Again, Gao Pragmatic currently doesn't have the energy and financial resources to toss this matter, and the time to achieve results is too slow, so it's great to be a long-term plan.

Is there a close-up plan? There are also.

In this area, Gao Shishi has seen a lot of oak trees along the way. These two kinds of trees are natural resources that can be well utilized - the area attached to his Sanshen Garden is sixty or seventy miles in circumference, and most of them are mountain forests. With such a large mountain forest, how can it be his style if he doesn't use it? Especially now that he is still in the starting stage, and the environment is the Ming Dynasty, there is no need to think too much about environmental protection, and he is not going to use it for large-scale charcoal, in fact, he will not cut it too much.

There is a story about Zheshu, which is about that during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Dongfang Shuo took out the yarrow used in divination, arranged the hexagram according to Zhou Yizhi, and calculated it in a matter-of-fact manner. At that time, it was during the entertainment time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and he was playing a game called "shooting" with his courtiers.

"Shooting" is guessing, "covering" is covering, putting an object in the vessel to cover it, everyone through divination, to guess the hidden objects in the vessel, was once very popular in the court of the Han Dynasty, not only elegant, but also gambling on the lottery.

This time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty came up with the topic, and all the courtiers couldn't guess it, and Dongfang Shuo read the divination hexagram and said: "The minister thinks that the dragon has no horns, and it is said that it is a snake with feet, and it is a lizard that is not guarding the palace." As a result, the treasure was indeed a palace guard, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty high-fived and praised the good, and gave ten silk horses. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was interested, and he continued to ask questions, and Dongfang Shuo guessed them one by one and won a lot of rewards.

Some of the spectators next to him were red-eyed. Guo Sheren suddenly stood up and said that he was willing to compete with Dongfang Shuo, and if he was defeated, he would be willing to be beaten by the board. As a result, Guo Sheren was defeated, and the court was beaten.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty asked about the secret of victory, Dongfang Shuo Dao, I had divined for the shooting, and the result was "Zhemu", and the hexagram said: "There is wood in Nanshan, and the name is Zhe." Good workmanship, can be shot. Shoot the favor, like a rabbit. The number of people is poor, why not thank you early. Zhe is read as "this", the material of the Zhe tree, can make a good bow, so it is said that "can shoot", and the word "shooting" is a pun, alluding to the shooting. The hexagram "covering the rabbit" is the form of hunting and hunting rabbits, which is exactly the appearance of Guo Sheren's beating. Emperor Wu slapped his legs and laughed when he heard this, and Dongfang Shuo's name of "Dazhan Shooting" has spread since then.

Regardless of whether the story of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Dongfang Shuo is made up by later generations, the wood of Zheshu is indeed suitable for making bows, and the name of "good shooting" has existed since the pre-Qin period. Legend has it that the branches of the tree are long and tough, and the black magpie gathers on the branches, and when it is about to fly away, the branches bounce up, and the black magpie wails, and the bow made of such a tree branch is fast and powerful, and it is called the "black horn bow".

At present, there are many woods in the mountains and forests attached to Sanshen Garden, if some good craftsmen are hired to teach some wood-finding methods, and a group of wood-finding talents are cultivated among the family servants and even tenant long-term workers, can't you make money by selling bow and wood? In the two hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, the war has almost never been broken, as long as you can provide suitable bow-making wood in batches, relying on your own background, you are afraid that you will not be able to make this money?

Speaking of oak trees, in a broad sense, oak trees are also called oak trees or oak trees (there is a narrow distinction, but in fact, the difference is very small and negligible). Many people may not be familiar with oak trees, but oak trees - anyone who knows a little about the history of European voyages should have heard of it.

When it comes to the Age of Discovery in Europe, the Royal Navy of the British Empire is certainly inseparable. Britain has designated the oak tree as the "national tree" and called it the "royal oak". The old military song of the British Navy is even called "Heart of the Oak".

Why are oaks so important to the UK? Because the warships before the ironclad era were all made of wood, oak was the best material for shipbuilding. The reason why the best wood is made of oak trees that are more than 100 years old is to make the oak wood used to build warships have greater strength and higher hardness.

The most representative is the British "Victory", which is made from oak trees that are more than 100 years old. These oak trees must be aged for 14 years after harvesting before they can be used to build warships. The purpose of ageing is to ensure that the oak does not crack, does not deform, and is dimensionally stable. A total of 5,000 such oak trees were built on the ship, and the entire construction process took 19 years.

The other battleship, the Bellerophon (not the later Bellerophon-class dreadnoughts), was a 74-gun battleship that consumed at least 3,000 oak trees between 80 and 120 years old during its construction. The construction of the ship began in 1782 and took four years to complete. In total, between 150,000 and 175,000 cubic meters of wood were consumed.

But in fact, the oak tree is not only used for shipbuilding, but also for the whole body. The leaves of this tree can be used to raise silkworms, and the wood itself is strong and resistant to decay, so it is widely used in construction in addition to shipbuilding, as well as for making furniture and charcoal.

Because acorns contain more starch, they can be used to make oak wine, alcohol, starch, rubber oil, etc., and can also be used as feed. Tannins extracted from oak bark, leaves, shells and acorns are essential materials for the tanning, printing and dyeing industries and fisheries. The cork has a thick cortex and can be used as an industrial cork material. Oak can also be used to cultivate a variety of edible mushrooms such as fungus, shiitake mushrooms and cyclophrento.

In the matter of shipbuilding, Gao Pragmatic will definitely do it in the future, but it is still early, and I don't have that strength. For similar reasons, some of the other oak functions have not been developed for the time being.

However, since oak trees can still make furniture, isn't that a good way to use right now?

Bald heads can make money by cutting down trees, but I can't make money by cutting trees with high pragmatism? Not only can I cut down trees, but I can also gather carpenters and start a furniture factory!
