Chapter 253: The Positioning of Beiping City
After the coal mine was arranged, Li Hang sat up straight and took out another thing from his side.
For traversers, especially early traversers, tea is a good thing to make a fortune.
At this time, the tea leaves were still a bit similar to the bean sesame tea in later generations, and they didn't say anything about it, but also liked to put some oil and other things.
Anyway, Li Hang is not used to drinking.
So now that he has some spare time, Li Hang began to prepare for the frying of tea.
After buying the tea leaves, they are slowly stir-fried in an iron pot, as long as they are fried little by little over low heat.
This skill of roasting tea is actually not very difficult.
Although several pots of tea were wasted due to the heat problem before, fortunately, it was finally made.
This kind of tea is fragrant and pleasant, and even Zhou Yurong is eye-catching.
There is no need for so many complicated steps, just rinse the water twice, the fragrance and slightly bitter taste of this kind of tea make Zhou Yurong like it very much.
So this time Li Hang took out this kind of tea.
Tea that can be passed down to thousands of years from now is always better than the current tea.
At least it's easy to make and much easier to store.
"I prepared this kind of tea, and the way to drink it is much simpler, you only need to brew it with boiling water!"
As he spoke, he asked the subordinates on the side to serve Ying Yun a cup of tea.
"This kind of tea is easy to make, the main thing is to fry it, there is no difficulty, and in this way, you can reduce a lot of tea steps, and the taste depends on whether you can drink it!"
This tea can be regarded as a refreshing artifact, and it is estimated that it is not much different from coffee, not to mention that this kind of tea is still the best thing to export.
This has been the case from ancient times to the present day, not to mention the trade deficit caused by the export of tea, in fact, this kind of tea has been the main export for a long time.
Why?
There are not many vegetables in the grassland, and many times it is made from goat's milk.
Those who eat meat every day also think too much.
In this era, even the agrarian civilization could not have enough to eat, let alone those nomads.
What's more, a lot of tea leaves in these years are ghost-like, not to mention the trouble of making, even when brewing it takes a long time.
The tea made by Li Hang is mainly intended for export, and this kind of thing is mainly used for export to foreign countries, and the main object is the grassland.
If you haven't eaten vegetables for a long time, you will have many symptoms, such as constipation.
It is quite convenient to use canned vegetables to sell, this is a bit too luxurious, and it is quite convenient to fry the tea leaves and then make them into tea cakes and tea bricks to sell, and this kind of tea bricks is still not worried.
Those who don't have money go to eat tea bricks, and the rich people eat canned food, of course.
As for what effect canned food will have at this time, how long it can be kept, Li Hang is not responsible, after all, the things that are sold can be kept fresh for about half a month, or fresh food, which is already very good, and the others that can be kept for more than a month are either salted fish or bacon, or even some sun-dried in case, this kind of watery vegetables, how precious it is can be imagined.
Li Hang smiled, picked up a cup of tea and drank it. "Well, this is not ordinary!"
Ying Yun took a sip and was immediately frowned by the bitter taste.
For a person who loves sweetness, he is not a person who likes bitterness, and although the bitterness of this tea is very light, it is also quite obvious.
"This bitterness is actually very good, it can be used to clean the mouth after eating a lot of things, and this tea can be greasy, and you can also use this tea to refresh your mind, if the tea is very bitter, it is also quite effective to refresh yourself. And this tea is going to be sold to those people on the grassland, which is definitely a big deal. Li Hang rubbed his hands with a smile, at this time, as long as they are really willing to try, they can play a lot here.
"You mean we take the initiative to trade with those steppe tribes?"
"Official bulk trade, other embargoes, and we can negotiate terms with them!" The Central Plains is vast, and there is no shortage of many things, but the grassland nomadism is different, especially those places that are a little worse, there are too many things lacking, not to mention any weapons and food, just the degree and other things, which are very lacking.
Even in the Central Plains, there are many people who are using bronze needles, and if they want to use iron, dream.
Li Hang's plan is to directly improve productivity, as long as productivity is improved, everything can be done, and no matter how strong or weak you are, you need to have enough productivity to support.
The only trouble now is an excuse. "What you are doing here now is to develop the north to deal with the threat of the north, and what I am worried about is that if you do this, someone will use this kind of thing to deal with you!"
In ancient times, the economic blockade was actually intended to be awesome, such as the iron embargo, which actually wanted to be extensive.
It's not good if someone makes a fuss about this.
Compared with Li Hang's worries, Ying Yun was even more indifferent at this time, because when Li Hang was worried about this, some changes had already occurred in Jinling City, and a group of people had quietly appeared inside this Jinling City and began to attack Ying Yun.
This kind of thing is already very troublesome in their opinion.
The antagonism between the people of the north and the south is essentially a confrontation between the interest groups on both sides, and this confrontation is mainly due to economic development.
Now there is an imperial grandson in the north, which seems to be an exaggeration.
In addition, at this time, there are all kinds of things in the north, as a foreshadowing, if the various commercial activities in the north develop, it may lead to the development of the north, and when the time comes, it is necessary to say how the interest groups in the south will develop, it will rely on interests.
Li Hang didn't take out all the things in his hands.
And at this time, everyone has seen the ability to search for a month, there is no output at all, not to mention that he has earned more than 2,000 yuan just by relying on this workshop, and now this is just the beginning, if he waits until this workshop continues to grow and develop, at this time, not only the southern families, but even the people in the north want these things in his family, more than 2,000 yuan a month, if you count the others, his family's income is worth the income of those big families, not to mention that he has not bought so much land at this time.
Without a little farm income, this kind of thing alone can get ten times the land and a hundred times the land income, which is simply enviable, jealous and hateful.
But now?
"Now there are already people over there who are ready to say that I have a lot of self-respect, but now if Beiping City can really be regarded as a military town, I am very curious, how are we going to develop this military town?"
"Military arsenal!" Li Hang sneered.
took out the map of this place, and Li Hang pointed to this Beiping City with a smile. "This place is actually trying to be awesome, not to mention that there are two rivers here that can support horizontal and vertical transportation, and can also be used for strategic support on the front line, as long as we have a large amount of armaments in this place, we can arm the trained soldiers into killing machines anytime and anywhere. Moreover, as long as there are troops stationed here, you can rely on these rivers to make military threats to the surroundings, not to mention that the most important thing here is Your Majesty's meaning, what kind of person does Your Majesty want you to become, and what kind of person does he want to develop here. ”
