Chapter 309: Ding Wu
To build a basic workshop, the next project and living facilities can be improved.
Otherwise, you can only use pure manual work to complete the rest of the work, which is not efficient.
The basic workshop of tool construction can be a little smaller, but it must have production capacity, so the people they brought over this time already have talents in all aspects.
Fortunately, there was no loss halfway, and a lot of apprentices were accepted.
In Fan Jingjing's view, these workshops of life can drive the rhythm of life, and every village or two must have one.
Fan Jingjing is not ready to build an automated and mechanized industry, because she is determined not to let Datang pollute.
This part is no different from the establishment of new villages, so this is also one of the plans of the Ministry of Agriculture.
If you are a particularly good person, you will be transferred to the shipbuilding workshop, because in the ordinary workshop, the work affects life, but when you go to the shipbuilding workshop, the quality of the ship you build affects your life.
The workers of the shipbuilding workshop must be better than the others, and the work of the shipbuilding workshop is more complicated.
Not only will it not sink, but it must also have the ability to attack or defend, so as to be able to better survive at sea.
For Fan Jingjing, shipbuilding is an integral part of advanced technology.
Fan Jingjing told them that your existence has long had countless ethnic groups of people, wandering in the sea, and being able to rob and fight in the sea.
And the people of Datang can't give up the sea, because the Datang coast is so vast, and the sea has a lot of food.
And it has the importance of defending the country.
Ding Wu is going to concentrate all the excellent employees in the workshop in the shipbuilding workshop, unless the employees have no way to adapt to the shipbuilding workshop, and they must train some people to get on the ship, but at first they may buy some boats nearby, and it will take some time to build their own ships.
People had to start adapting to life on the water, and they had to wait for the boat they built to come out before they could go to the ocean.
It's still relatively simple to be able to move along the coast in the first half.
There is a pre-assignment on board, which is to learn very good swimming skills, which means that the crew must also be selected.
Building a canning workshop is the easiest thing to do, and it only takes two days for them to start production.
But the focus must be on secrecy.
The pottery and glass bottles made can also be sold for a good price.
But even if the pottery is counted, the technology of glass bottles and porcelain is considered the high-end technology of the Fan family manor, not everyone can mix it, and whether these 3,000 people are loyal or not must be verified.
Fan Jingjing seemed to have the ability to approve, but Ding Wu felt that he could only roughly judge whether this person's personality was trustworthy.
After spending two days and taking care of the temporary habitable environment, it was necessary to start the division of labor, and the most important work of these people was to start planting pasture grass and desalinate the salinity of the seashore.
In Fan Jingjing's plan, the land by the sea must still be planted with various crops in order to make the people in this place nutritionally balanced, otherwise they only eat fish and meat and do not eat vegetables, or vegetables and fruits, and the food needs to be purchased externally, which will increase the cost of living.
The Dutch created land from the sea, and they used a few years to develop animal husbandry, then to grow cotton, which eventually became a base for food production.
Whether it is pasture or cotton, it is needed for Fan Jingjing, and he also knows that the seaside in this area will continue to expand, although the depth of the ocean is not very deep, but it does not constitute much impact, because the depth of ships in this era will not be very deep.
The accumulation of the Yellow Sea will not make the Yellow Sea only 17 meters deep.
When we start building big ships in the future, we must find some ports with deep cargo water in rocky shore ports to develop, and ports with wide and deep waters are relatively weak in terms of agricultural development, and now Fan Jingjing just wants to catch some fish, so she didn't do it.
Moreover, it is necessary to have an agricultural production base nearby, so as to be able to replenish the grain of the nearby Iwagan fishing port.
For further development, Fan Jingjing is ready to go to Changshan Badao to develop.
Ding Wu has accumulated a lot of knowledge in his brain, so he is actually very anxious, and he can't wait for the knowledge in his brain to become a reality in front of him, but Fan Jingjing also told him that it takes time to do anything, and only by changing bit by bit can it be stable.
Among them, he must find some people who can be trusted and bring them to the island to develop the island.
The island must be completely self-sufficient, that is, to become the new Fan family manor, but the island does not belong to the land of the Tang Dynasty, and it has to be responsible for its own security, so there must be some weak manpower, so some of the people he collected will not belong to the Tang Dynasty.
It is necessary to subdue some people in this and let them catch up with the island and develop their new life.
Ding Wu's pressure can be said to be very high.
However, he is also interested in what he wants to do.
Living near Chang'an, he has seen through the world, and he absolutely supports Fan Jingjing's idea, only by establishing a stronghold overseas, can the Fan family manor continue regardless of the development of imperial power, and the Fan family manor is their chassis.
The Fan family manor can last a long time, and they themselves believe that no matter how they fall, they can get up.
As long as the heart belongs to the Fan family manor, the Fan family manor will not abandon people casually.
Planting grass is also a very new thing for Ding Wu, and even he doesn't know how to take care of it.
The seeds of the grass were collected by the merchants of the Western Regions that Fan Jingjing found.
There are not many seeds, but it is said that the grass multiplies quickly, and if the seeds are scattered, they will soon be connected.
In fact, Ding Wu has never planted pasture, and he is very bottomless, can he pasture grass in the saline-alkali land by the sea?
Even the plants don't grow well, and there are very few plants on the seaside.
What's more, it is a pasture grass that is difficult to grow in the mainland.
He was actually very worried in his heart, worried that he would not be able to complete his mission.
If you can graze cattle and sheep, and then sell the cattle and sheep back to Chang'an, it can also bring a large number of harvests, and it is also a big lucrative project.
Cattle and sheep don't have to be slaughtered if they have feet, they can be sent over, they can be pasture grass with them on the cattle and sheep, looking forward to walking back and waiting for the pasture, and after eating it to Chang'an, they can sell it at a high price in Chang'an.
Cattle and sheep can definitely be very popular in Chang'an,
It can bring new sources of income to the development of seaside villages.
In the later stage, the cattle and sheep were able to be canned and sold, and it can be said that there was no difficulty in taking the saline-alkali land for this land, and even the government was embarrassed to levy relatively high taxes.
How much money is made by selling to Chang'an, the government will not know.
Commercial tax is also paid to Chang'an.
Ding Wu is not very clear about whether he is taxed or not, but fortunately, there are some scholars around him who know how to calculate and declare taxes, so they will be handed over to him to deal with.
For other things, as long as Ding Wu assigns the integration work well, the days of doing his own work will pass.
Speaking of which, the work of the seaside village is very challenging for him, and in the future it will form a big city, and he is the father of the city, which makes him feel that it is a very honorable job.
After the place stabilized, many people in the neighborhood came to see if they could join in.
After Ding Wu accepted some people, the gentry in this place began to come over to find trouble, but these gentry did not dare to use force, because there were many people in Ding Wu, and they only dared to move their mouths.
As for the things that move their mouths, Ding Wu is actually not very familiar with them, after all, they always mention some things that are not important, the readers brought by Ding Wu are not high-end, and the readers have no way to speak, so they often listen to them After speaking, Ding Wu does not reply, just closes the door and sends people away, they don't pay attention to what they say.
If they have actual actions, then Ding Wu has actual retaliation.
The place where they live is really some distance from the sea, and the population density is relatively low, and for these gentry, the population they have finally caught and fled to the Ding Wu camp is the biggest loss.
They went to report to the government and wanted to have a fight with the government, but Ding Wu was not afraid, because the power behind Ding Wu was higher than that of the local government, and more importantly, they reported these people to the household registration, which means that they had to pay taxes, and the money was solved by the village.
The increase in population is equivalent to an increase in grain taxes for the government.
A group of people who have brought so many benefits, compared to the local gentry, although they have old friendships, but they do not give so much help.
Ding Wu also helped the county yamen to build bridges and pave roads, and the city walls were renovated, so to speak, he would come every day to ask and see what he wanted to help do.
Wool is useless to others, but it is a good thing for the people of Fanjia Manor, who already know how to spin wool, Fanjia Manor has not experienced winter, but a lot of wool has been spun into wool and put it in the cellar, they can come to knit sweaters when they are slack, but then again, there are really no idlers in Fanjia Manor, and they are too lazy to knit sweaters, so most of them are handed over to people outside to weave, and when the time comes, weave sweaters and give them some working hours.
What's more, they can buy wool with the Fan family manor and weave sweaters to make money.
For the girls in some nearby villages, this is an important way to make money, as for spinning and weaving, the nearby villagers now rarely spin and weave cloth, because the automatic loom of the Fan family manor has begun to operate, and the spun cloth is enough for a year in the nearby villages for a day, and the cloth is starting to become cheap, and it cannot replace the money.
Most of the girls from the nearby villages came to work near the Fan family's manor, and the money they could earn was more than the money he made from spinning at home, so most of the people in the neighborhood did not have any big complaints.
Since their automatic loom is a water conservancy loom machine, it cannot be built everywhere, and can only build factories in places with abundant and stable water power.
The hydraulic equipment that pushes the textile machine is still an artificial channel to control the fast and slow flow of water.
It's just that I came to a place where I was unfamiliar with life, and offended the local gentry, and the source of cattle and sheep may have to go further away to find it, I don't know if anyone is raising cattle and sheep in this place, after all, this place is barren and grassy, and it is also a food source for cattle and sheep.
Cattle and sheep by the sea should not lack salinity.
Planting grass seems to be a simple job, but it took half a month before and after, and of course another group of people continued to build a place to live in the future.
The place to live in the future needs to be planned, not only roads, but also residences, more importantly, the distribution range of each workshop, according to the guiding principles of the Fan family manor, the distribution of each workshop has certain rules, otherwise there will be the problem of difficulty in relocating goods, and the problem of difficult sources of raw materials.
Planning doesn't take too much time, not to mention that it has been about thinking about it on the road for a long time, and the construction of the workshop is listed as the first.
Only by building a new workshop can we produce more tools, and only with tools can we speed up the pace of construction.
Undoubtedly, the cement workshop was the first to be built, followed by the wood workshop and the iron workshop, because with these workshops there were tools available to use, and with the tools, people would work several times faster.
Especially the people who live in the Fan family manor, the most unaccustomed thing when they come here is that there is no running water, and they can't wait to quickly shape a new Fan family manor and live the life of the Fan family manor.
Listening to the people of the Fan Family Manor, telling them everything they had enjoyed in the Fan Family Manor before, the eyes of the others widened.
For them, the life of the Fan family manor in their mouth was tantamount to heaven, and they began to wonder if the person who brought them to work was a madman, but the madman would give them food on time and never starve them.
They were very entangled in their hearts whether they should stay here or not.
But with the completion of the workshop, they have less to think about leaving, and life has exceeded their imagination, although the people of the Fan family manor still miss their previous life, but they can listen to it and ignore it.
By the time the workshop was all set up, a month had passed.
Canning workshops have also been established, but those who can get into canning to do a job have to choose when it comes to glass jars.
For the selection of personnel, at this time, there is no Fan Jingjing who can guide who is the loyal person, and Ding Wu can rely on himself.
"There are some workshops, it doesn't matter if you spread the word, but the canning workshop is a secret workshop, so if you leak the secret in the future, the punishment is death.
Even if you make us suspicious, I'm sorry, you have only a dead end, which is very important to us. ”
"Glass cans are precious items, aren't they?"
"Since we made canned food and sold it to the outside world, it was actually not cost-effective. But in this place it is definitely cost-effective, and it is possible to make a sum of money, and the workshop is local, and it cannot be produced, and what cannot be obtained will have its value.
When the time comes, they can sell it at an expensive price, and if we only sell it at a cheap price, then we will lose a lot.
Once it spreads, with the practice of Fan Zhuang, the craftsmanship of the workshop will definitely be made public, and we can't stop it. ”
