Chapter 86: Li Dongbi heals
Hearing this, the crowd that had been in turmoil suddenly fell silent.
The faces of all the villagers were full of surprise, and the village chief immediately asked, "What Gu Dongjia said is true?" Looking for a male worker? ”
Gu Beichuan nodded and said, "This time I came to the village chief for this matter." ”
"Now, Feihong is going to open two new workshops."
"One for farming, one for kiln."
"The kiln is tired, and it starts with a hundred dollars a month."
"It's easier to farm, starting with 80 dollars a month."
"I wonder if you want to come?"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere of the scene was like cooking oil on fire, and it instantly became warm.
Liu Laosan was the first to raise his hand and said, "Boss, I'll go to the kiln!" ”
"I have the strength, not afraid of hardship or tiredness, you can rest assured, I will definitely burn a good kiln for you."
"Me too!"
"Me too!"
"Okay, all those who want to sign up, register with the village chief first, and then go to the workshop to find Fubo another day, and let him arrange things for you."
"I'll go first."
"You're busy."
When Gu Beichuan came, everyone was arguing about whether Liu Laosan should beat his daughter-in-law.
But when Gu Beichuan left, it seemed that everyone had forgotten about this stubble.
Everyone was immersed in the intense joy of eighty months of money and one hundred months of money!
Compared with the money, Liu Laosan's beating of his daughter-in-law is a big deal.
After the recruitment was completed, Gu Beichuan went back to Nanshanju and explained to Fu Bo about the relevant matters of the two workshops.
What Gu Beichuan wants to do this time is mainly hybrid rice and brick kilns.
Needless to say, hybrid rice is a thing, even the 140,000,000 people in the future can feed it, and it is simply a big killer in Daqian!
Once it is made, then Zhou Huai will definitely be able to take advantage of this to become the imperial merchant among the grain merchants in one fell swoop.
In the spring of the following year, Feihong will merge Shen Ji Bu Xing and Zhou Ji Grain Merchants, and he will be able to hold two imperial merchant purchase routes, and his reputation is not small.
However, in fact, Gu Beichuan is not confident in making hybrid rice.
After all, even in the later generations when science and technology were developed, Yuan Lao also went through a lot of hardships to develop hybrid rice.
At first, this project, which ate countless funds from the state, was called the existence of a bottomless pit of scientific research.
Some people even question that the ideal hybrid rice does not exist at all!
That is, Yuan Lao, indomitable, insisted on scientific research for decades.
But even then, it almost didn't work.
Why?
Because in order to make the ideal hybrid rice, you have to need a male rice.
Call it a male sterile strain!
And it has to be a natural male sterile strain, and it is useless to process it the day after tomorrow.
In order to find the male sterile strain, Yuan Lao traveled all over the motherland's 9.6 million square kilometers, which lasted for three years!
In the end, just when everyone was close to giving up, a few strains were found on Hainan Island.
What is this concept?
In an area of 9.6 million square kilometers, only a few strains can be found in an area like Hainan Island, which has a tropical climate.
How big is the land of Daqian? Gu Beichuan didn't know, but he definitely couldn't surpass the motherland.
If you want to find a male sterile strain in Daqian, not to mention whether you can find it, it will be an astronomical amount of manpower and material resources, as well as the time and financial resources spent!
The rarity of male sterile strains doomed this to be an almost impossible task!
However, it is not necessary to make an ideal hybrid rice.
It's good to make the first generation.
Have you ever heard that Mendelian peas are hybridized?
In short, there are two kinds of peas, one with a low yield but resistant to lodging, and the other with a high yield but not resistant to lodging.
When the two are crossed, they can form seeds with high yields and lodging resistance!
Based on this principle, it is good to make similar rice seeds and sell them to Zhou Huai.
As for the brick kiln, it is relatively simple.
He was going to burn the bricks, then make the cement, and then build the house.
Isn't Chen Huai'an the biggest landlord in Jiangnan?
When the time comes, let him circle out a piece of land, which will be covered with this kind of brick house, and it will have to be a big house with three entrances and three exits.
In this way, it is completely possible to create a super mansion similar to the Tomson Yipin in the later generations.
And after a year, this mansion will become Feihong's.
Not only that, but when there are more people, he also wants to make perfumes, soaps, etc.
From now on, the products of Nanshan Workshop will sell well and spread all walks of life.
And he, as the absolute controlling person of Feihong, doesn't have to do anything, just lie down and wait to count the money.
After explaining to Fu Bo, Gu Beichuan left for Huainan.
Although Huainan City and Bagong Village are very close to each other, it takes two or three days to teach at least, so it is better to leave early.
But not long after he walked away with the servant, he happened to see a familiar figure.
I saw that the man was dressed in a snow-white robe, and the word "medicine" was embroidered with gold thread on it, with a good appearance and a superb temperament.
It was Li Dongbi.
Since Li Dongbi lived in the Nanshan Residence Courtyard, he basically went out before dawn and came back after dark.
Sometimes I come back with a basket full of herbs, full of confidence.
Sometimes they are depressed, and their brows are full of sorrow.
He didn't say it, so Gu Beichuan naturally didn't ask.
But now that he finally bumped into him, Gu Beichuan decided to climb the corner of the wall and peek for a while.
This is the entrance of Bagong Village, and the people in the village must pass through to go out of the village and return to the village, and the flow of people is very considerable.
At this time, Li Dongbi set up a small stall at the entrance of the village, and a small flag was hung next to the stall, and the flag read: Disciple of the King of Medicine, free medical treatment, eight big characters.
When someone walked by the stall, he hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed the other person's arm, and after taking a look at the other party's face, he said in an extremely serious tone: "This brother, you are sick!" ”
That man Gu Beichuan also knew that it was Li Laoer.
Among the villagers of Bagong Village, Li Lao'er has a relatively good temper.
But when he heard this at this time, he also frowned, pushed Li Dongbi's hand away, and scolded angrily: "I think you are sick!" ”
After saying that, he left, without the slightest intention of stopping.
However, Li Dongbi stopped doing it, chasing after Li Lao Er and chattering.
"This brother, you are really sick!"
"I'm a doctor, and I can cure you."
"No money!"
"I'm doing this for your own good, why don't you appreciate it?"
Li Laoer, who has always been honest, was finally completely enraged, and while pushing Li Dongbi, he yelled:
"Lao Tzu is in a hurry to work, you charlatan, if you still want to entangle, don't blame me for not having long eyes!"
As he spoke, the honest farmer also raised his fist and shook it demonstratively in front of Li Dongbi.
Li Dongbi seemed to be really frightened, stunned in place, his face flushed.
After a long time, he just sighed, waved his hand and said, "That's it, if you are unwell recently, remember to come to the village to look for me." ”
After finishing speaking, he went to stop the next villager, looked at the other party for a while, and spit out a serious sentence: "This brother, you are sick!" ”
When Li Lao Er saw this scene, he scratched his head suspiciously, spat out, and said, "Charlatan." ”
