Chapter 56 Money-making projects
The craftsmen of this world are not stupid, as long as they give a little inspiration and guide them in the right direction, they can find their own way.
Seeing that the lead movable type was successfully made in this world, Liu Qing felt that he could inspire them to do something else.
Distilled spirits are a good way, although he doesn't know the specific method, but he knows the principle.
Although from time to time, Daqian would issue a ban on private wine, but that was usually when there was a shortage of food.
In the event of a famine, folk winemaking is still allowed.
The Liu family has a winery, which mainly digests the grain grown by their own family.
Their family's brewery supplies one-third of Gyeongju's liquor market.
However, there is no core technology, the main focus is the low-end market, and the added value of production is relatively low.
I have also seen that wine Liu Qing, it looks a little cloudy, and it smells a little sour, and the quality is really not very good.
If you can make distilled spirits, you should be able to make a fortune.
The Liu family was a large landowner in Gyeongju, and their own family produced grain, and the cost of brewing wine was not very high.
With this idea, Liu Qing descended on a black starling and asked Liu Jide to summon the master of the distillery to come over, held a secret meeting, and explained the principle of distillation and purification as a divine envoy.
Using the identity of a starling to introduce this, instead of using dream-making, the main reason is that Liu Qing himself doesn't understand the specific operation, and only knows the principle, which is a bit inconsistent with his impression of omnipotence in the minds of these people.
Introducing this as a starling, it doesn't matter.
God's messenger, but the messenger of God is not a god, and some things are not very clear, but it can still be understood.
He only showed the way, and whether he could get it out or not depended on the intelligence of these people.
Liu Qing felt that this should not be a difficult thing, and he believed that the brewing masters of this world could figure it out.
This is not a complicated process in itself.
The Liu family has now set up a papermaking workshop, which is to make a supporting match for their Deshan Bookstore, although there is no advanced papermaking technology, but the production of their own paper, even if it is the same process as others, can also make the printing cost lower.
Liu Qingzhen didn't have any good suggestions in this regard, and he could only advocate that the master of the workshop think of more ways to reduce costs and improve efficiency.
As for how to figure it out, he couldn't figure out the way, and he couldn't even make a little enlightening advice.
Liu Qing can't provide too many suggestions on grain planting, he has no way to produce chemical fertilizers in this world, so he can only encourage them to work intensively to increase food production as much as possible and improve land use efficiency.
Before he crossed over, he was a child in the countryside and had seen how modern people farmed.
However, the things he saw basically couldn't be applied to this world.
There are so few experiences to be shared.
However, with movable type printing and distilled spirits technology, the Liu family could take their wealth to the next level as long as they used it well.
With money, faith can be better developed.
Now Liu Qing has hundreds of believers, most of whom are obtained by spending money to solve their predicament.
At the same time, Liu Qing also has a merit system task in progress, and the current progress has reached 4.3%, mainly by building schools to accept children from poor families to study.
It's a money-burning project.
It costs money to build school buildings, to provide free books to those students, to ask teachers for money, and to provide them with three meals a day.
In the future, there will be more and more students, and the school buildings will be built bigger and bigger, and the expenses will be more and more.
If you don't find a few money-making projects for the Liu family, at most ten years, this one can hollow out the Liu family.
Although Liu Qing and the Liu family do not have much deep affection, they are also a capable subordinate, and they are the left arm and right arm of his career development, and for his own career, he must also make the Liu family more prosperous.
Liu Qing came back this time and stayed in Liuzhen for a few days, making some plans for the new industry of the Liu family.
The rest of the time, he went to other towns in the county to show miracles, expand his influence, and seek more incense.
In addition, he also used the dream-making technique for the Taoist temple of the Taoist temple in the natural county, and incarnated as the emperor of heaven enshrined in the Taoist palace in the dream, and rewarded the lord of the king, saying that the lord of the king invited Liu Qing, the land god of Liuzhen, to return to the throne, so that one of the lands was sheltered, and it was a great contribution to the promotion of miracles. Encourage him to make persistent efforts and do a good job of assisting, so that this land god of Liuzhen can play a greater role.
For Wang Guan Lord, the main reason for using such a dream making technique is that Liu Qing has now expanded his business beyond Liu Town, strictly speaking, it is out of bounds, beyond the scope of the Dao Palace's permission, in order to avoid the Dao Palace from pursuing this matter, first use the dream making technique to lay a foundation for Wang Guan Lord, so that he feels that this is not a bad thing, but a good thing.
Wang Guan is the person in charge of the Dao Palace in the Museum County, representing the will of the Dao Palace, all the Taoist priests in the Museum County are under his control, and he is also responsible for all the sacrifices of the gods.
He thinks that Liu Qing, the land god of Liuzhen, has crossed the boundary, and the land temple in Liuzhen has to be demolished.
He thinks that if he doesn't cross the line, then there is nothing.
Wang Guanzhu has been a Guanzhu in Bowu County for more than ten years, and his relationship with the Liu family has also been good over the years, and the silver received from the Liu family has been one or two thousand taels.
The impression of the Liu family is still very good.
Some time ago, some Taoist priests under his command reported to him that the people of other towns worshiped the land god of Liuzhen, and felt that this was a bit abnormal.
Wang Guan said with a smile at the time: "I heard that the land god of Liuzhen is quite spiritual, he is also the god of our Taoist palace, and he is not those cow ghosts and snake gods who can't see the light, the people believe in him and invite him over to worship, this is also a capable person who works hard, what's wrong?" ”
It's kind of suppressing this matter.
Even if the Liu family is copied, it is not the Dao Palace to copy the house, but the people of the official government.
He didn't get any benefit at all, and he lost a generous benefactor in vain, he was not so stupid.
waited until he had such a dream and was rewarded by the Emperor of Heaven, and he felt that he was very right to suppress this matter in the first place.
In the letter written to Master Fufeng of the Gyeongju Hongbo Hall that month to report the local situation, this Liuzhen land god was mentioned:
“…… Recently, I heard that my master went to the land god of Liuzhen to be enshrined in the year of the year, and the people in the countryside who asked for it all fulfilled their wishes, and they were prosperous with incense, even more than the local city god. Although outside of Willow Town, there are also people who worship this god. Or it is said that Xu Jinshi Xinke Toad Palace in this county is crowned, and it also relies on the power of this god. There are few people in this county who do not worship this god. It is really a great contribution to carry forward the education of our Taoist palace. ”
This is to report this matter to Master Fufeng.
If something goes wrong in the future, with this letter, I will also get rid of my responsibility.
- I said it, but you didn't take it seriously.
In addition, it is also a reminder to Master Fufeng of one thing - this god is sealed by you, he is already tied to the same boat with you, he is fine, you are fine, he is going to have a problem, you are responsible.
