Chapter 146: Papermaking
After a few months of construction, Yuezhou New City has begun to take shape, at least the streets and homesteads have been clearly divided, the camp and military port of the Dongting Water Army have also been built, as the first city without a city wall in the Tang Dynasty, the army in Yuezhou must have the ability to respond quickly, here is a pilot for the separation of military and government, and it is also a pilot for the urbanization of military and civilian mixed residence, the Dongting Water Army will be the second professional soldier in Datang in addition to the ten thousand horses, they are not like the government soldiers, recruited during the war, returned to their hometowns after the war to farm, half soldiers and half farmers, They have their own daily work, such as undertaking water transportation tasks, managing ports and wharves, and maintaining local law and order, as long as they complete their daily work, they can receive enough wages to support the whole family, such an army has actually been transforming into the military and police of later generations.
In Yanglin's view, the inland naval army can be called the water police, once the Tang Dynasty cleared the internal bandits, the inland naval army only needs to be equipped with appropriate advanced armed ships, in addition, the city must be equipped with police officers and soldiers and armed police officers and soldiers will also be born in Yuezhou, these people will evolve from the Dongting naval army, any city has these three kinds of permanent guard officers and soldiers, public security conditions will become better, and the yamen of the fast catch, soap officials can be dispersed to various communities in the city, the establishment of the current management, directly managed police station, In the event of an emergency that cannot be handled, they can immediately call for the support of professionally trained firefighters and armed police officers and soldiers, of course, it will take a long time to do this, and it is hoped that after the construction of Yuezhou City is completed, this new urban management model can be born.
Yanglin held several meetings in Yuezhou, and the Miao people and the Miao caravan must be explained to the task, Chang'an has sent a group of people to help build the factory, Wang Qi's adopted son Wang Changfu and Wang Changgui two brothers are the leaders of this line, the orphans who were adopted by Wangjia Village have now gone to work, the former loneliness and helplessness make them grow faster, older children such as Wang Changfu and Wang Changgui two brothers, have been able to take charge of themselves. Younger children like to follow Wang Erxuan's buttocks, stepping on a few model tricycles produced by the car factory, pulling special leather ovens all over Chang'an City to sell roasted sweet potatoes, I really don't know that the wooden tricycle of the car factory is now a limited edition, and the gold is expensive!
"Master Ma, my father and my mother asked us to bring you a message, our breeding factory must be expanded now, and we can't afford to provide food for nearly one million workers in the top ten factories in the east and west, and we can supply dozens of cattle and sheep and hundreds of pigs at one meal. Thousands of chickens and ducks, they will taste a small bite on average, this is not counting the court and the various yamen ordered, although according to the breeding method you taught, a few months can be out of a column, but we only have tens of thousands of heads, and then eat like this Our breeding pigs and hens will be gone. "Brother Wang Changfu is actually a half-old child, thirteen or fourteen years old, and has just entered the period of changing his voice. His face was still very green, and he complained shyly.
"Well, it's time to expand and get millions of people to eat chicken, duck and fish. It's definitely not okay to be a factory, I will write back and ask them to look at it, you came to Yuezhou is my idea, you have been working in Chang'an farm for a year or two, you should be very familiar with large-scale farming. Now Yuezhou is going to build a similar factory, which will be completed by your two brothers, but in addition to breeding chickens and ducks. Cattle, sheep and pigs, but also to add a scale of fish farming industry, here the terrain is low-lying, just find a piece of flat land to dig water, you can become a pond, fish farming as a livestock breeding down-line industry has no problem, you may not know, livestock manure is a good feed for fish farming, there is living water around the Dongting Lake area can be replaced at any time, here are green mountains everywhere, the forage is very abundant, as long as this one-stop industry is established, not only can solve the meat supply of Yuezhou New City, You can also export a part of it to Chang'an, which is a job to help the local people solve their livelihood and make a lot of money, do you have the confidence to do this well? ”
Yanglin said that it can make money, that is, iron and iron can make money, the annual production of forage in the Dongting Lake area in later generations is enough to provide several listed large papermaking enterprises to do raw materials, in this era, the weeds are even crazier than the later generations, and the establishment of an annual output of hundreds of thousands of livestock breeding plants is not a problem, hundreds of thousands of livestock manure can raise how many fish, is a difficult to calculate mathematical problems.
The two brothers were encouraged by Yanglin, naturally began to become full of confidence, high morale, they brought a complete set of technical teams in Chang'an, as long as they were matched with the corresponding number of workers, they would be able to quickly operate the breeding plant, the land of the two lakes has never lacked people, only the lack of projects that can lead everyone to prosperity.
Take the newly built crocodile county as an example, only a few months, the crocodile team of the crocodile breeding factory has reached the scale of several thousand people, people from the beginning of the fear of dragons, to now turn into a crocodile like crocodile, under the heavy reward system, the crocodile team now see the crocodile on the eyes of the golden light, although now there are not many crocodiles used for breeding, but the contractor Jia Du Chunlei feels that this year he can start to recycle capital, at the latest next year, can completely return to the capital, because crocodile skin and crocodile meat in Chang'an City once launched, Favored by Hu merchants and medicinal herb merchants, crocodile skin was processed by garment factories into exquisite leather jackets, backpacks, satchels, leather boots, and belts that were not afraid of wind and sun. And crocodile meat is the treatment of cough, lung disease of the superior medicinal materials, rich and noble people like to make a bite of dragon meat to eat, not only delicious tonic body, but also a symbol of dignity, as for what to protect wild animals in the future thought, Yang Lin felt that in the Tang Dynasty there is no need, here even the panda is everywhere can be seen scourge iron-eating beasts, clean up some more safe to bring out, in order to protect human beings such a precious animal.
The fleet of the art troupe finally set off to return to Suzhou after staying in Dongting Lake in Yuezhou for a few months, and when passing through Xuancheng, Yanglin led the group to Wang Chengyin's house, Wang Chengyin of the dog day did not dare to come out to greet him, and the big shopkeeper was not so easy to do, Wang Chengyin was an example of failure. Yang Lin gave him the materials and paper-making technology of rice paper, and he actually made a ball of soft and non-garbage, and the paper that could dissolve the hole as soon as the ink was dipped in, and it was only good to wipe his butt when he was solved.
After the white rose with a dull face entered the mansion, he was the first to mess up the things that Yang Lin had confessed, and the big and small stewards of the Wang family knelt on the ground tremblingly and were ready to bear the anger from the master of the horse with the new head of the family.
Yang Lin looked at the poor Wang Chengyin, he really couldn't bear to punish him in front of his whole family, and said in a round field: "Leaving such a thing to you to do, it's actually my fault, it should have been led by me personally, you can make such a paper It's actually good, in the future, the designated paper for our Datang people to wipe their butts is this thing, you draw a trademark, design a good-looking packaging, if you can find a way to sterilize this paper, add a little fragrance, and make money It's no problem. But you can't continue to waste good things here, this thing can be made from the bark of reeds and dead grass, and I should make a version of the rice paper myself and let your craftsmen take a look! ”
Many female members of the art troupe heard what Ma Ye said, and they all covered their mouths and laughed, they didn't know that the toilet paper that Datang people can't do without and the sanitary napkins that female compatriots can't do without in the future started with Wang Chengyin's failed papermaking.
As soon as Yang Lin's words were finished, Wang Chengyin, who had no heart and lungs, slapped his thigh and jumped up from the ground, and shouted in his mouth: "Master Ma is really tall, even this can be imagined, I use this kind of paper to wipe my ass these days, not to mention, it is much easier to use than the hard and rough yellow paper, I have no other skills except for drawing, you are kind enough to spare me!" Wandering the world with the art troupe is what I should do. ”
Yang Lin really doesn't have anything to take advantage of, if he has it, he will definitely whip this girl hard, is the art troupe wandering the world? Just because of the existence of the art troupe, the people everywhere accepted the new things of the Tang Dynasty lightly, and the promotion of the work is indelible, such a deep thing is in vain to Wang Chengyin, he doesn't know at all, the Miao people hiding in the mountains began to babble and learn Chinese, what symbolizes the future of the Tang Dynasty.
"Alright! You like to draw, right, I'll let you draw until you vomit blood, now hurry up and take me to the factory, there is not much time, we have to rush to Lingnan as much as possible. ”
Wang Chengyin heard that Yang Lin was going to take him away, his waist, which had been soft for a few months, suddenly straightened, and even the third calf began to get stronger, you know, during this time, he couldn't even take care of women for papermaking, and he was not interested in getting it twice a night at most, for a sex addict, this is the rhythm of getting better, he hates others for helping him treat his illness the most, and he seems to be saved.
For papermaking, Yanglin is actually no stranger, in later generations he has food processing plants, packaging factories, etc., among which there are specialized in the production of their own commodity packaging paper, of course, those papers are given priority to exquisiteness, but the principle is roughly the same, for rice paper, because it involves the papermaking industry, so he also understands, the materials and processes of making zuò rice paper are not a big secret in later generations, because only the raw materials produced here are suitable for making this kind of paper, so the technology of papermaking is not so expensive, just like Moutai, Later generations of wineries know how to make wine, but they can't make the same wine as Moutai, and the most fundamental reason is the region, unless you copy the mountains and rivers of the entire Moutai Town.
The paper was manufactured as expected, basically meeting the requirements of Yanglin, the craftsmen witnessed the whole process of papermaking without leakage, and even stopped somewhere, how long the pause did not miss, until they independently manufactured the rice paper, Yanglin was relieved, but the original materials were two or three Yanglin useless, but asked the shopkeeper of the Wang family to continue to buy, saying that he may be of great use in the future.
The era of paper money is coming after all, at least after returning to Chang'an, silver tickets, Jiaozi and other things Yanglin is ironclad to get out, gold, silver, copper and iron will be more used in the creation, due to the volume and weight of the coin to people consumption and travel inconvenience must be solved, then at this time a unique paper is quite critical.
