In addition, the holy oil has also sprung up and become one of the main foreign trade commodities produced by the Chinese Empire.

Today's Europe, especially in places like Northern Europe and Tsarist Russia, has a huge demand for this holy oil. With the gradual popularization of holy oil, the demand for the use of holy oil as fuel in Europe became stronger and stronger, and because the production of holy oil was almost completely controlled by the Chinese Empire, the market price and supply of holy oil were all monopolized by the Chinese Imperial Oil Corporation. This is a unique business, and as long as the price of holy oil is lower than the price of whale oil, there is no need to worry about sales.

Other silk and agricultural and sideline products, the Chinese Empire has always maintained a state of export, the difference is that with the operation of many silk reeling factories, the raw silk in the south of the Yangtze River and Sichuan is no longer exported on a large scale, but changed to finished silk thread or silk cloth for export. The same is true for porcelain, the export volume and export unit price of porcelain have increased year by year, which has hurt the European merchants, and their profits are much lower, so the porcelain industry began to develop in the newly established Kingdom of Italy and other places, but unfortunately, I don't know why, the porcelain kilns in Italy often collapse and even blow up the kiln and other accidents, even if some porcelain is produced, it is still of poor quality, and can not be compared with the porcelain of the East.

However, among the export goods of the Chinese Empire that surprised Feng Yunshan the most, it was still daily necessities. Feng Yunshan also did not expect that after the establishment of the Light Industry Department of the Ministry of Industry, the light industry of the Chinese Empire would develop so rapidly. Of course, not to mention the textile industry, which is the largest in the entire empire's foreign trade exports, the largest value is cotton textiles. In addition to foreign trade, the more important thing is actually domestic sales. After all, the largest market in the world is actually within the empire. Don't look at the empire's annual export of 450 million holy dollars of all kinds of cotton cloth, etc., and the profit has reached nearly half of 220 million holy dollars, but in fact, the most profitable is still sold here.

It can be seen from the statistics of the Ministry of Commerce that the entire empire, only the domestic sales of the mainland of the Chinese Empire, cotton, linen, silk and other textiles are worth more than 1.3 billion holy dollars, of which the simple profit reaches nearly 500 million holy dollars, but these profits are not only earned by major textile factories, but also by traders at all levels and intermediate links.

As for daily necessities, although the value of each single category of goods is not much, it cannot hold a wide variety.

Soap, towels, rubber shoes, alcohol, sugar, hardware, paper, candles, firecrackers, umbrellas, furniture, shoe repair machines, holy fertilizer, ink and paint, soy sauce flavors, matches, glass, etc. Especially for white sugar, after the improvement of the sugar production process and the extensive cultivation of sugar cane in the south, the production of brown sugar and white sugar is no longer simply a small family workshop, but has either become a large sugar factory, or although it is a small workshop, dozens of households and hundreds of villages and villages have come together to operate jointly, with a huge scale and a high output, so that the people inside the empire and the people abroad are happy.

In addition to the foreign trade bureau under the foreign trade bureau of the three major foreign trade companies of the foreign trade company, the provinces, governments and even counties have set up supply and marketing cooperatives, towns and even villages and the implementation of the consignment system, the number of consignment stores under the supply and marketing cooperatives is dense, arranged into a network, the entire sales network and system are laid up intact, tentacles throughout the entire empire, as long as there are more than 1,000 people, there are almost all consignment stores under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Commerce, so that the sales of this daily necessities will be sold out almost as soon as they are available, the prefectures, The supply and marketing cooperatives in the county have a phenomenon that the supply of goods exceeds the demand.

If it were not for the purpose of cultivating the market for daily necessities such as Europe and cultivating the habit of Europeans using daily necessities, the Ministry of Commerce would like to sell all daily necessities directly in the local market. But in fact it is also the right thing to do. Today's Chinese Empire, because of the hot sale of daily necessities, has attracted a large number of investment in this factory to produce daily necessities, and a large number of daily necessities factories have emerged, and the output of these hardware, daily necessities and groceries has also increased geometrically, selling well at home and abroad. Especially within the empire and in the subject countries and spheres of influence under the control of the empire, there is a thriving scene. But at the same time, for those foreign places, especially Europe, their markets for daily necessities were almost monopolized by the Chinese Empire, coupled with the impact of the war, Europe's economy was seriously hindered, although it did not have a large area of negative growth, but the growth rate was significantly lower than before, and even for countries like Britain and Tsarist Russia, not only industry, but even the economy of the entire country, there was obviously negative growth.

In terms of heavy industry, it surpassed Britain early, and now the Chinese Empire has become the world's largest industrial power without any suspense. Most crucially, the military industry of the Chinese Empire has now become one of the most powerful countries in the world. From more than 10 years ago, relying on the purchase of weapons from Europe and the purchase of machine tools to process weapons, to now not only can independently manufacture all kinds of weapons and munitions, but also rely on Feng Yunshan's super era to create sophisticated and superior weapons, completely ahead of this era, whether it is a Krupp cannon or a Mauser rifle, it has become the fundamental guarantee for the Chinese Empire to become strong.

Not only that, but today's empire is still vigorously developing its naval power, and under the crazy investment of money, a large number of the latest ironclad ships have been built, as well as constantly updated submarines, and, now, Feng Yunshan secretly instructed the Shengjing Machine Manufacturing Bureau to start developing steam tanks, although it is cumbersome and difficult to really use in combat, but the internal combustion engine has begun to be introduced, as long as the internal combustion engine is fully put into use, the steam engine in the steam tank will be replaced, and it will become an invincible tank in land warfare, enough to crush all enemy forces.

With the development of heavy industry and light industry, as well as the great promotion of commercial trade, not only did the number of capitalists within the Chinese Empire increase significantly, but even the wealth of the big capitalists also increased significantly, and because of the large number of factories, more and more people were employed, and the number of people benefited was also increasing, so that a large part of the people could support a large family by only relying on work, and as a result, a large number of villagers, especially the rural peasants on the outskirts of the city, gave up farming and turned to the city to become industrial workers.

As the so-called people are rich and the country is strong, Feng Yunshan is very happy to see this scene in this situation. According to the data mastered by Li Hongzhang, there were more than 200,000 private factory owners or factory and mine owners in the entire empire, and more than 10,000 of them had assets of more than 100,000 saint yuan. In other words, the wealth of the richest capitalists alone has exceeded 1 billion saints.
