Chapter 308: Crops of the Americas

The crab that Zhang Wu brought back was very much in line with Chen Zijian's intentions.

Of course, the better thing is that Zhang Wu's captured booty, in terms of silver alone, is worth more than two million, which is the silver that the Europeans purchased from the East, which was intercepted by the navy.

There are also large quantities of silk, porcelain and the like, which are also very valuable.

Chen Zijian has made a fortune here, so some people are unlucky, and the unlucky ones are merchants in the East-West trade, so Chen Zijian doesn't need to pay attention to it.

In the No. 1 courtyard, several wives were chatting happily together, just now they went to the warehouse to select treasures, Li Zhuer couldn't go over because she was pregnant for half a year, but there was no way, Zhang Qiu asked people to send a large box of treasures over, and let Li Zhuer choose.

Qin Keqing, Qin Keya, and Xiaoxi sisters, who were selected before, gave ideas on the side and helped Li Zhuer choose the treasures she liked.

"Husband!"

"Husband."

"Chief."

Several wives saw Chen Zijian coming in and shouted, and Zhang Qiu hurriedly came over to say hello.

Chen Zijian is in a good mood, after all, with a large amount of income, of course he is in a good mood.

"Steward Zhang, these are left behind, and you can send the price of these things over."

Zhang Qiu waved his hand, "Don't, don't, if the chief likes it, it's okay to stay." ”

"Oh, let's still collect cash coins, this is the income of all the brothers, let me personally leave it is not good, you are responsible for the management of treasures, whoever asks you to buy these in the future will receive money, I can be regarded as taking the lead as a role model dad, whoever asks you for something in the future will not give money, you let him find me."

As the leader of the volunteers, Chen Zijian believes that he should take the lead in distinguishing the difference between the wealth of the volunteers and his personal wealth.

But there is a big box here, worth more than 200,000 silver coins, it is a little unauthentic to stay, if Chen Zijian is greedy for temporary pleasure, just like the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in later generations, he was extremely poor and luxurious in the later period, played with women, and built a large number of prosperous buildings for personal enjoyment, resulting in the following soldiers having no original intention.

Volunteer Chen Zijian hopes to continue to conquer several continents in the future, then he must establish rules, if he wants to enjoy life, there is no problem with how many concubines he marries, provided that he pays for it. The wealth of the Volunteers should not be used for personal consumption.

Chen Zijian had his own source of income, earning his own silver coins, and it was reasonable to buy the capture of the Volunteers.

Zhang Qiu: "Yes, chief, I will let people count the value and send it over tomorrow." ”

After saying that, leave with someone.

There were no outsiders, so Konishi ran over, "Chief, do you think it's okay?" ”

Konishi has pearl earrings on his ears, and the pink pearls set off Konishi's youth and beauty.

"Well, of course, by the way, we'll have a crab dinner at noon."

The crabs that Zhang Wu bribed followed Chen Zijian back, and now there are volunteers coming in with two boxes, which contain crabs that are alive and well.

In an ordinary house in the fifth district of Zhangjiacheng, Li Wenhua used to be a junior in an inn, and learned a little simple words from a little relative's bookkeeper.

Originally, he was working in Dongguan Mansion, and the reason for coming to Zhangjiacheng was that a few months ago, after the disastrous defeat of the government army, according to Chen Zijian's intentions, he asked a group of craftsmen as compensation.

There are not enough blacksmiths in Yuezhou City, so craftsmen are drawn from Dongguan and Foshan next to it, and Li Wenhua's father is a blacksmith, and the family follows him.

I heard that they were going to the anti-thief area, and Li Wenhua's family didn't want to come over, but the government had already requisitioned and transferred them to their family, so there was no room for negotiation, and the government's coercion among the people was still very great, so if they didn't dare to resist, they could only come over obediently, otherwise the government would kill people in the name of rebellion, and where could they go to seek justice.

Since coming to Zhangjiacheng, Li Wenhua's family has found that this is really a paradise on earth, and this is the life of people.

Li Wenhua's father has a hand-made iron craft, and was arranged to work in a factory, with five silver coins a month, and what his father does not tell his family, what is kept secret.

Not to mention a high monthly money, the family arranged a new house in the fifth district of Zhangjiacheng, of course, the new house costs money, because the father works for the factory under the volunteers, and there is a discount for buying a new house, and you can also pay in installments, and you can give a silver coin in the next two years.

If someone said that their family could have such a good opportunity when they were in Dongguan, Li Wenhua would not believe it, how could their family be able to live such a good life.

Because Li Wenhua has a certain culture, the Zhangjiacheng staff who arranged these craftsmen at the beginning were overjoyed, and Li Wenhua is currently a teaching teacher in Zhangjiacheng Primary School after simple simplified Chinese learning.

Compared with other illiterate people, Li Wenhua has learned a little knowledge, which is already rare, as for the learning of simplified characters, it is really not a problem, traditional Chinese characters are much more difficult than simplified characters, and learning simplified characters with the premise of traditional Chinese characters is like a college student doing homework for elementary school students.

Moreover, Li Wenhua can learn a little culture from his accounting relatives, and his intelligence is much higher than that of ordinary people, and the knowledge of this era is precious, if it is the kind of stupid person who can't carve rotten wood, the accounting relatives are too lazy to teach, only the kind of smart people who are smart, who can understand it after simply teaching it, will have a chance.

Li Wenhua's family background is innocent, he used to be an inn junior, and he has nothing to do with the literati class of the Ming Dynasty.

As a teacher in primary school, Li Wenhua can understand the meaning of life, because of his identity as a teacher, his social status can skyrocket, and there is an essential difference from the previous junior in Dongguan Inn, and the two statuses are not at the same level at all.

As a primary school teacher, he has special clothes, and now that Li Wenhua walks out of Zhangjiacheng, the people around him see it and cast respectful eyes, is this feeling something that can be experienced by being a junior second!

Although he has been here for less than three months, after being familiar with the rules of Zhangjiacheng, Li Wenhua completely identified with the identity of this teacher, and now let him leave Zhangjiacheng, hehe, how is it possible!

As a primary school teacher, Li Wenhua was able to get in touch with certain knowledge, such as the world map, the area where Daming is located, during this time, in addition to teaching two classes of students to read, Li Wenhua read a lot of knowledge of the world in the primary school library.

He is less than twenty years old, he doesn't have many stubborn thoughts, and he sees the vastness of the world in the book, and where it is, and now Li Wenhua knows what kind of world he is in, and has a general understanding of the world.

Compared with other ignorant people, Li Wenhua knows what the Pacific Ocean is, what Antarctica is, and knows what kind of foreigners he saw in Dongguan before, coming from Europe thousands of miles away.

The more he understood the truth, the more Li Wenhua admired the city lord of Zhangjiacheng, and with his mind and what he had heard before, it was not difficult to find out what the city of Zhangjiacheng was doing.

If that's the case, Li Wenhua is willing to help the city lord, because only in this way can the people of the world live such a good life.

Li Wenhua came back from the government bulletin board, and the government bulletin board had some tasks in Zhangjiacheng, and as long as he could find the things on it, he would be rewarded with a large sum.

Li Wenhua knew how to read, and when he saw the content and simple illustrations on the bulletin board, he thought that there was something very similar at home, so he hurriedly came back, and the content of the bulletin board had just been pasted short.

Looking at the pile of sweet potatoes that were common in later generations, Li Wenhua was sure that this thing was on the bulletin board.

Sweet potatoes were brought by Li Wenhuaniang from home, and when it comes to the history of sweet potatoes, later generations have been confirmed. In the tenth year of Wanli (1582), China was introduced from the then Spanish colony of Luzon, and Chen Yi, a native of Dongguan, was first introduced to Guangdong from Annan.

Sweet potatoes have a certain planting scale in Dongguan, and Li Wenhua's family has a few acres of thin fields and has planted some.

As for the lack of a large number of promotions by the government, that is, the government does not pay attention to sweet potatoes, as well as the smooth flow of news in this era, and the lack of understanding of sweet potatoes, according to normal history, sweet potatoes were planted throughout the country in the Qing Dynasty, and the Qing Dynasty was able to continue for hundreds of years by relying on the production of sweet potatoes.

Li Wenhua saw the rewards of a variety of crops from the announcement board, as long as the first one to hold the crops in the task, he can receive 1,000 gold coins, yes, gold coins.

Foreigners and ordinary people can receive 1,000 gold coins as long as they hold sweet potatoes, rubber trees, peanuts, cocoa beans, corn, potatoes and other American specialties.

The benefits generated by the American specialties in Zhangjiacheng in the future, such as peanuts and sweet potatoes, as long as they can be widely planted in the Chinese region, is a thousand gold coins considered high? Of course, the first person will be useful if he takes it, and the rest will not be there.

It's like a patent application, the first application is useful, and the rest is gone.

Li Wenhua's breathing became heavier, and his eyes were about to turn red, because the bulletin board had not long been published, and Li Wenhua could see the above things, so he hurriedly ran back to confirm whether it was true.

"Mother, we're going to get rich."

There is only one mother in the family, and when she saw Li Wenhua's appearance, she was a little worried, "Andy, what's wrong with you?" Don't scare your mother. ”

Li Wenhua's eyes were red now, and his expression was a little terrifying.

"Mother, I'm out, we're rich."

After speaking, he ran out of the door with a few sweet potatoes, leaving the worried mother behind. I don't understand why Li Wenhua suddenly went crazy.

Li Wenhua ran fast, so naturally he couldn't catch up with him, so he could only run to find Li Wenhua's father Li Shan in a hurry to come back, there was only one man in the family, and whatever happened was a big deal.
