Chapter 755: Controversy

Chapter 755 Controversy

As for the mysterious yellow incense powder made by Pu Li, it is actually the yellow tannins.

Tannic acid has many effects, and for the Song people, the greatest use is tanning and medicinal use.

So this thing has another name in Shu - "tannic acid".

The people of the Heavenly Master's Mansion purified it from gallic with ether and found that it could cure sores and poisons.

Then the second forest department discovered that it was able to tann the skin.

The Su family weaving workshop found that it could glue silk, so it told the Cheng family paper mill.

Soon, the Huang Song Bao banknotes were also glued with it.

Yongchun Dew is not used for high-alcohol liquor, but Chef Zhou uses it as a low-alcohol wine fining agent to obtain a clear rice wine called "sake".

It was then found that it was combined with sodium salt, giving it a dark liquid.

So Cheng Jiamo Fang took this discovery again and made blue ink......

So this thing can't get out of Shuzhong at all now, and it's in short supply at all.

The discovery of a chemical has been used in all aspects by the people of Shuzhong, which is also the routine operation of various merchants in Shuzhong.

Businessmen from all walks of life, after tasting the sweetness, are now very interested in science and engineering, and they are constantly investing money to make their products more exquisite and cheaper.

And the big cannibal actually used it to barbecue meat!

……

The Great Song Dynasty is an agricultural empire, in fact, in October, after the last batch of staple grains were harvested, the governors of the state capital were worried about the hearts of a year, and they could finally relax a little.

Whether it's abundance or hunger, the dust has settled anyway.

In addition to this year's Liangzhejiang Road.

As long as it is a place where Su You is in charge, it will be busy all year round.

Under the rule of other officials, the scholars and doctors will start singing "Min Nong", "Three Officials", and "Three Farewells" again, but they really can't sing it on Liangzhejiang Road.

Because Xiao Su Shaobao gave him a lot of money for his labor, the food was sufficient, and the oil and water were still big.

In this era, one meal of meat every two days is the standard for the closest servants under the prime minister.

Su Shaobao has meat here every day, although it is mainly fish, but the taste of Shaobao fish, that is...... Tsk tsk.

The so-called Shaobao fish is braised fish pieces, which are coated in flour and fried, and then stewed in cooking sauce.

There are also chicken offal soup cakes, bone broth and lamb offal rice noodles, fat intestine rice bowls, and spicy lung slices......

Occasionally, there will be high-end canned beef, canned lamb, and luncheon meat in the vegetable bowl!

Even the noodles made from the sprouts are so delicious!

Su You has only one requirement for the meals of migrant workers - from himself, the water conservancy department, to the meal lady who delivers medicine and drink, as long as he is still working on the construction site, he will be treated equally in terms of diet, any official Xu official, and migrant workers will stir horses and spoons in a pot!

If you can't even do this, then you don't need to stay in the water conservancy department.

Lu Jiawen sometimes cheated and played tricks, Wang Anshi, the prefect of Jiangning, Sun Jue of Huzhou, and Wang Hui of Suzhou, praised this move.

Sun Jue even wrote a "Huzhou Water Conservancy Worker's Record" to praise such initiatives.

The old man was very happy, because the biggest beneficiary of the second phase of the Taihu Lake development project is Suhu Erzhou.

Looking at the large swamps, the old man was really anxious, and he longed to turn it all into fertile land in the blink of an eye.

Even write to the imperial court and exile all the criminals of this year to my Huzhou!

Su You was frightened when he came back and learned about it, and hurriedly caught up with the above table, the land of Suhu Lake is fertile, and it is not in line with the way of the imperial court to reward good and punish evil.

However, now thousands of people in Shu have cultivated and eaten for thousands of people, and the people's fields have been opened to the mountains, and the land of Shu is rich, and the family has children to immigrate, so it is better to gather the children of the Shu branch and go to Suhu Lake to spread branches and leaves.

It would be a real problem to move to other places, because the new immigrants could not afford to buy land, and they had to build charity projects; Second, for local bureaucrats, the population is involved in performance appraisal, and if there is a negative growth in the population, the local officials will lose their positions!

However, Su You has long considered this problem, because diluting population density and increasing per capita land ownership is actually good for local development, and the problems that officials are worried about are all technical problems.

Therefore, as long as the performance appraisal method is changed, this problem can be solved - the state government reports the number of households and households willing to emigrate, and after the imperial court agrees, the immigration is organized, and then subtracted from the local population, and the new base is used as the basis for the performance appraisal in the second year.

In this way, the performance appraisal of the state capital in the second year has room for improvement, and the burden of the population is solved, which is beneficial to them themselves.

Sun Jue quit, and the old man thought that the people should be given priority to education, and the prisoners should be transformed into obedient people, which is the virtue of chasing three generations. Now that there is such an opportunity, how can you miss it?

The rest of the state capitals on Liangzhejiang Road are also gone, except for Zeng Bu, who is busy burning copper and casting money, there is a shortage of human resources in the territory, and all the recluses have been used, and the rest of the state governors are secretly saying that Su You is eccentric, and frantically hinting at Su You - since there is such a good opportunity, first solve the problem of hidden households in the fourteen states! Liangzhejiang Road has a great achievement of population explosion growth due to Ming Gong, isn't it fragrant? !

Last year, bandits were rampant, salt lords were rampant, and this year they have become good cultivators, high-yield salt households, fields have to be cultivated, people have food, and the territory is peaceful and tranquil.

And even if you have a deep foundation in Shuzhong, but after all, you are a transfer envoy of the two Zhejiang roads, and you reach out from the end of the river to the head of the river, is this hand a little too long?

The two Zhejiang Road transfer envoys said that it didn't matter, Su You had to move out of a bigger boss, but fortunately, there was one here - Wang Anshi.

Wang Anshi is very busy, he wants to promote the Suyou model around the three lakes of Shijiu, Dangyang, and Gucheng, and at the same time he also wants to engage in the coal, iron, copper and gold industries in the east and Moling in the west, as well as the Yangxian River Water Conservancy Project in the upper reaches of Taihu Lake, and he is also short of people.

However, Wang Anshi is not stupid, he threw state-owned assets wildly before, and that was because those assets lost money in the annual report, even including the official fields around the military horse farm, which were the same, so he ruthlessly sold the land for money.

Su You's land sales model in Shaanxi made his eyes shine, he sold land, that is, he didn't care if he sold it, but Su You sold land, and there was a contract signed between the government and the buyer.

Under the Shaanxi model, no transfer of ownership is allowed within 10 years, disputes over private transactions will not be supported by the government, and the priority qualifications of land sellers are reversed, from landless households to high-class households.

The most unique one is also a package of loan support, including seeds, farm tools, poultry seedlings, livestock seedlings, fruit mulberry seedlings and other packages.

If it is a family immigration, combined with the armor protection system, you can also take out joint loans to get larger water wheels, mills, ploughing cattle, mules and horses and other large animals.

These few alone have put an end to most of the ugly appearances.

Of course, Liangzhejiang Road has its own actual situation, Su You is in Shaanxi, that is the military management, and the main people who get the land are veterans, volunteers, township soldiers, and displaced people, and these people are naturally supporters of Su You.

In addition, Sima Guang and Fu Bi, two local bigwigs, are in charge, and Songyang Academy firmly controls the commanding heights of public opinion, and the local heroes and annexation families are both literary and martial arts, and can only obediently follow Su You's baton.

What's more, Su You also gave them the largest carrot, industry and commerce.

In the Liangzhejiang Road, there are many problems, and the power of the scholars is intertwined and firmly controls the grassroots forces.

In addition to the forces in Su You's hands, including merchants, radical scholars, bureaucrats, low-class households, salt households, and shipping families, there was only one armed force, Di Yong and Wang Zhongzheng's 1,000 new army.

After analyzing the situation of Liangzhejiang Road, Wang Anshi sent a long letter to Su You, believing that the second phase of the project could only bow to the annexation house and compromise temporarily when the imperial court's financial resources were insufficient.

The Sitong firm also encountered financial difficulties, and the cost of organizing bulk goods for maritime trade was quite a lot, and only a few iron ships were enough for the firm to drink a pot.

The investment of the Huang Song Bank is mainly at the end of the year, which is also the traditional settlement date of the Song people.

There are a lot of gold and copper reserves in Liangzhejiang Road, but those must ensure the circulation of goods.

So Su You really doesn't have any positions to call for a while.

In fact, there is another way to let the land be barren for a while, but this is not in line with the principle of profit maximization.
