Chapter 265: The Next Stage

When Ah Ku and Ah Xin returned to the salt port, they happened to bump into two barges, pulling a large amount of linen yarn and unloading their cargo.

Along the banks of the Yan'an River, farmers can also be found harvesting the hemp, and bundles of hemp stalks are sent directly to the textile factory.

Due to the new hemp plant, the use of more scientific temperature control method has greatly shortened the cycle of flax.

This is the first achievement of the biogroup, and the specific principle is to select the microbial colonies that specialize in flax through screening, and then add a certain amount of sugar to allow them to multiply.

After obtaining the stock solution, it is put into the hemp pond, and then the temperature control is used to ensure the mass reproduction of suitable strains, and this process is more accurate due to the thermometer.

This method is similar to making koji, except that it is more difficult than making koji.

Through controlled experiments, after adding the stock solution and temperature control, the hemp soaking time was shortened by one-third, and the quality of the hemp yarn produced was also better.

The fiber pulp of hemp stalk is also more delicate, and it can also improve the quality of paper when used to make paper.

This success opened up a new world and encouraged the biology students, who continued to learn obscure knowledge and clumsily experiment.

With Yan Zheng's encouragement, they have begun to cultivate Penicillium, a process that may take more than a decade.

No one knows if they have the luck to find high-yielding strains from nature, and they can only continue to prefer.

In fact, it is not difficult to prepare penicillin, there are many ways to obtain penicillin, but there is no high-yield strain, and it is better to play allicin to prepare penicillin.

"Your Majesty, we're back!"

After returning to Meaux, Ashin and Ache immediately rushed to the Red Room.

Yan Zheng got up with a smile and shook hands with the two cordially: "It's all hard work, this time in Ryukyu, you did a good job!"

Ah Ku grinned: "Thanks to the wise guidance of the king, the people are brave enough to support it!"

As a halfway joiner, Ashin immediately quipped: "I don't dare to rob this credit, I was going to visit, and I happened to run into it!"

"If you can be flexible, first use the fleet to cruise around the Ryukyus, and then report to ask for my opinion, I am very satisfied with your handling!" Yan Zheng smiled and asked the two to sit down, and let Lan Ya pour two cups of tea.

"And Ah Ku is in the Ryukyus, and he has dealt with it skillfully many times, and his methods are still a little immature, but he can already be regarded as good! Fortunately, behind you is your great motherland, and there is a fault-tolerant cost for you to sharpen! ”

Ah Ku nodded, still a little apprehensive about these things in the Ryukyus, he sighed and said: "These days, I can be regarded as understanding what the king said, it is difficult to start a business and keep a business!" The Ryukyus are only about 200,000 people, so we almost stayed there! ”

"It's good to know, don't be so reckless next time! The situation is not right, your personal safety is the most important, let the garrison

It's also treaty to defend the factory! Your identities can be regarded as expatriates of my Huaxia Country! ”

Yan Zheng analyzed it afterwards, and also felt that this time was very thrilling, if he was to be in command, he would definitely transfer two companies first, set up artillery to protect it, and then slowly wait for the grain from Eastern Qin, anyway, with the treaty in hand, the Ryukyu Kingdom would not dare to say anything.

"I won't next time! Later, I realized that the king was asking us to treat Ryukyu as a local construction, not as a local! ”

"Well, I can see this clearly, the tuition fee this time is also worth it, the soldiers who died in the battle have entered the Xiangyang Martyrs Garden, damn it, I didn't expect the Ryukyu army to be as powerful as the common people of the Ryukyus!" Yan Zheng scolded and scolded.

Ah Ku shook his head and smiled bitterly, feeling a little guilty in his heart.

Seeing this, Ashin hurriedly changed the topic and said: "But your lordship, I feel that I have gained a lot from this visit, and I think that in the future, this northern route must be our most important route!"

"Oh!" Yan Zheng raised his eyebrows and said with interest: "Then I have to listen carefully!"

Ashin took out a chart and said: "Your Majesty, this time, according to the chart of the Ming merchants, starting from Yangang, this pass through Ningbo, a little north there is a Songjiang Prefecture Shanghai County, where merchants gather, and further north there is Dengzhou Haiyang, where commerce is also developed, from Dengzhou to the east, then to the North Korean Haizhou Port, where the trade is more relaxed, and I love our iron pot very much!"

"After starting from Haizhou, we will also pass through Haupyeong, North Korea, where you can also do business! From Hampaira, you can go to Fukuoka, where the Ouchi clan is located, and south you can reach the Shoji clan, the Otomo clan, the Matsuura clan, and the Shimazu clan, and then go south back to Ryukyu, and from Ryukyu back to Shioko, running a circle! There are all places in the circle that can trade, and the Ming Kingdom is even richer! ”

Yan Zheng smiled with satisfaction: "Now you know, why didn't you run this route earlier?"

"You know, there was not enough capacity before! On this route, there were only Zhejiang and Fujian maritime merchants with large ships, and the rest of the trading ports after going north were all smuggled by small boats.

Therefore, ordinary trade needs to be transported by us. North Korea also does not have big ships, and Japan is also short of capacity, although there are also trading ships, but they only dare to go along the coast, unlike our big ships! ”

"And the firepower of the ships is not enough, there are not many ships, and this route cannot run! We encountered pirates when we passed through Zhejiang, and we also encountered pirates when we traveled from Korea to Japan. But when they saw our big boat, they drove away in a small boat, and they didn't dare to come over! Ashin explained with a little excitement.

Yan Zheng snorted: "What about what you were asked to do this time?"

"The cotton in Shandong, I went to find out, and the purchase can be purchased, but in previous years, they were

Mainly sold to merchants in Matsue Prefecture! ”

Ashin pointed to a few points and said: "Japan's words, those forces have agreed to buy arquebuses, and each force has sold four monkey version of the rear-loading 75 guns, and they have all agreed to our trade request, just waiting for us to trade with arms!"

Yan Zheng was not surprised by this result, and this visit also proved his judgment, he looked at the two and said, "You have seen it! Master the advanced productivity, no matter where we go, our goods will have a great advantage, and the production capacity will help us to conquer one place after another! As long as trade can be carried out, these places will be taken by us for resources and labor value.

And now, our country has mastered the major event of coinage! Ashin, the description of the copper coin in your receipt, I can explain it to you now, that is, we can make better money with a lower minting cost! So no matter how we make money, we can generate higher value. It's like a copper coin is a commodity, and this commodity, anywhere, can't be refused! ”

"Is that just a mint turned on, and you can keep making money and then go somewhere else to buy all kinds of things?" Ah Ku asked.

Yan Zheng smiled and nodded: "Not only that, we can expel the copper coins from other places, and in the end, the entire region, only we can mint coins!"

"This ...... Doesn't that mean that as soon as the mint is turned on, we have everything! Ashin reacted.

Yan Zheng smiled and said nothing, he didn't expect that a minting machine would actually become a big killer.

As long as dozens of mints are built, and there are seven or eight barges, you can go all over the coast of Daming to collect leather money, and then make copper coins again, and then go to Daming and other places to set up shopping materials.

Proper Millican behavior!

"Then no matter how big the Ming Kingdom is, won't it be as soon as our mint is turned on, we can easily take away their grain, minerals, various raw materials and commodities?" Ah said bitterly, he felt a big shock in his heart, a small coin, can actually master a country!

Yan Zhengzhi was complacent, and said with great pride: "Bring in, go out, now we have the ability to go out, and we can bring it in." Next, I will open up trade, attract merchants from all over the world to trade here, and the shipyard will also expand its scale, and we will turn all routes into our blood transfusion lines! ”

"The two of you are ready to work with the cabinet to amend this bill, and the general guiding spirit cannot be changed, and the general policy cannot be changed! Before the anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, this bill must be passed by the House of Representatives as a gift for the anniversary! ”

As he spoke, Yan Zheng handed a document to the two.

Ah Ku took it and took a look, and it was written on it: "Three-year Plan for Investment Promotion and Foreign Trade".
