After the monkey forest left, Yan Zheng began to draw a map carefully.

He carefully sketched the outline of Dongfan Island on the paper, and then marked out the resource points one by one according to his memory.

The more he painted, the more he felt that the focus of future development should be on the bamboo trench port and the chicken coop.

Only by developing these two places will he be able to build a coal-steel complex on the island, which will be enough to face a possible embargo.

At the same time, in the face of a large map, how to distribute the industry, he also had to start to think about it.

Dongfan Island is very rich in water resources, and the rivers are dense and each river is not far apart.

This is not a good condition for building a railway, but as long as the island-wide canal system like Britain is built, then water transportation and irrigation can be satisfied.

In the southern plains, the resources are not as abundant as those in the north, but the hydrothermal conditions are more superior, which is very suitable for establishing a plantation economy.

As a resource-rich area in the north, you can refer to the first railway in Dongfan Island, the Keelung-Taipei Railway, to establish an industrial zone along the line.

In this way, the high-quality coal in the chicken coop and the iron ore in the Luchang iron ore area can be used, and the products can also be transported to the freshwater port by river.

As for the deep mountains, the most important products are golden sand and precious giant trees, which are related to the shipbuilding industry in the future.

All of this, if taken together, can be used to establish an industrial system at the level of the nineteenth century, without a single problem!

Looking at such conditions, Yan Zhengdu had to boast, it really deserves to be a treasure island!

And the industrial distribution, with his five-year plan, highlights a development focus, that is, Zhuqian Port, which is surrounded by the next key development zone!

No matter how much money you put into it, it's worth it!

After thinking about it, Yan Zheng ordered Ansan to take the newly formed Zhuangding battalion into Zhuqian Port, where a fort was established first.

This group of strong men has also been training for more than two months, although they are not from Mocheng, they come from various tribes, and they are more disciplined.

Yan Zheng also reacted after seeing their drills, this way of drawing Ding is better than directly converting to the recruitment system.

In this way, it was possible to regularize the army in the region, and the hunting party would no longer function as an army.

And if the conscription system is successfully implemented, the region will be more integrated! The rest of the tribes also had to accept the fact that they could not control the armament.

Zhangzhou, Song Gongdi, Song Mansion.

The Song family's house covers a wide area, and it is carved beams and painted buildings, and the eaves are heavy.

If, according to Lao Zhu's decree back then, all these buildings of the Song family have been transgressed, if you want to investigate deeply, you can sentence the Song family to the crime of rebellion.

It's just that the southeast is rich, and the gentry take the lead in comparing, and this law has long existed in name only.

Song Zixing, the head of the Song family, was sitting in the backyard at this time, listening to Song Derong and Song Jilin, reporting on the trade with Dongfan Island.

In front of them, there was a wooden shelf of primary wood color, which was incompatible with the rockery lake stone around them, and there were strange iron pieces on it.

Song Zixing's hair was white, but he was very energetic, he looked at it in surprise for a while and said, "Can this thing really benefit all people?"

Song Derong on the side smiled and said, "Master, it's true!" This thing can be threshed while cutting rice, not to mention labor-saving, and it can also allow farmers to return their grains to the warehouse early! The remaining two or three days can sometimes mean a much better harvest! ”

Song Zixing stroked his beard and said: "If you can really save one or two days, it means that the second crop of rice can be planted a few days earlier, so that the yield can indeed be higher!"

"Not only that, but drying the rice one or two days earlier can also ensure that the hard-earned harvest is not ruined by the weather!" Song Derong said.

Song Zixing nodded, got up and walked to the machine, and after trying to operate it, he found that it was very simple and it was running.

He observed it for a while and said, "This thing is an ingenious way to turn the power of people's feet into the power of this wheel, and then the wheel will thresh it!" And we Daming people, threshing mostly uses waist strength and arm strength, not to mention the effort, threshing is not fast!

And the foot strength is easier than the arm strength and waist strength, which is really twice the result with half the effort! It's so ingenious, it's not complicated, but it's just right! There are also masters on Dongfan Island! ”

Song Jilin said with a fart: "Dad, you are really insightful, and you can see the subtlety of this thing at a glance!"

Song Zixing shook his head with a smile and said, "Being able to understand doesn't mean that we can have such ingenuity!" If this thing is promoted, it will indeed benefit all people! ”

"It's a pity! The best blacksmiths in Zhangzhou City say that it will take more than a month to build one! Song Derong sighed: "Although this thing is good, it must be difficult to popularize it soon!"

Song Zixing raised his eyebrows and thought for a while and said, "What is the quotation over there?"

"One tael or three dollars of silver!" Song Jilin said.

"One, two, three?" Song Zixing was stunned and said, "Only use so much silver?"

"Exactly!" Song Jilin also said strangely: "The people over there only say one or two or three dollars of silver, if we need it, as long as we increase the supply of pig iron, they will continue to make energy!"

"Unbelievable! Fantastic! Song Zixing couldn't hide the surprise on his face.

Song Derong answered: "The master doesn't know, the iron pot they made is also amazing, in the past, how could there be a cast iron pot, but this time the pot shipped back from Dongfan, although it is a little rough, but it is also better than ordinary pots!"

Song Zixing patted the threshing machine, and stroked it again: "This matter is beneficial to others and ourselves, if we can help popularize this thing, the Fujian fathers and elders will accept our love!" That's a feat! ”

"Sir! Look at the gear! Song Derong smiled bitterly.

"Oh!" Song Zixing leaned over to take a look and found that a line of words was cast on it: Produced by the First Machinery Factory * Yan Zheng supervised.

"Huh! This Dongfan people are very interesting, but this is a matter of accumulating virtue, and it is also necessary to let the Dongfan people leave a name among the people! ”

Song Jilin also nodded and said: "You might as well put this thing down, let's also press some price, the people of Dongfan can generously sell this thing to the people of the Ming Dynasty, which shows their minds, we can't be villains!" It's better to sell it in Fujian at a price increase of three yuan, and how much money the rest of the land merchants plan to sell after buying, we should also tell one or two! ”

Song Zixing took a slight breath and agreed: "It's very decent to do this, but you also have to make some silver and find a few craftsmen to try to make it." The territory of the Ming Dynasty is vast, if it is popularized by sales, I don't know how many years it will really benefit all places!

As the saying goes, it is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish! Let's look for craftsmen to try to make successfully, you can write a book to explain in detail, and as long as the book drawings are circulated, this thing will be popular! ”

"Daddy is really insightful! In my opinion, it is better to spend some silver and invite a few craftsmen from Dongfan to give you some advice! Song Jilin said.

Song Derong also said: "This thing looks light, but in fact, it is finely constructed, which is staggering, just these irons are fine iron!"

Song Zixing snorted: "You can do this!" Remember, if there is a secret method, it will cost a thousand taels of silver! ”

"Yes!" Song Derong promised and hesitated: "It's just that this time, the king of Dongfan Island sent a message asking us to buy more pig iron for him, and he also asked for a boat!" I heard what people meant, if the Song family didn't give it, they would go to other wealthy businessmen! ”

Song Zixing thought for a while and said: "I heard that many wealthy businessmen have recently sailed to Dongfan!" Presumably, our fur business continues to grow, and these people will give up their blood to look for it in Dongfan, so it must be inevitable that they will come into contact with the short-haired king! So we can only hope that this king will keep the contract. Then admit more personal favors and build him a new ship! ”

"I'll do it!" Song Jilin said busily.

Song Zixing nodded, and asked again: "Since their iron pot is not bad, what is the output?"

"I heard that as long as we need it, they can build it for us one by one!"

Song Zixing was stunned when he heard this, and muttered after a long time: "This group of Dongfan people is so good at using iron, presumably the armor and sword are also sharp!" This...... If this is ......"

"Hey......"

Song Zixing didn't dare to finish the rest of the words, he vaguely realized that this group of Dongfan people had already posed a certain threat to the southeast half of the Ming Dynasty.

It's just that now, he is reluctant to stop the trade with Dongfan. As far as he is concerned, the world is big, the clan and business are the largest, followed by the Fujian fathers, and finally the imperial court!
