Zhoushan Island, there is a Yaojiaao in the mountains in the north of Changzhou City, there is a Yaojia Village in Aozhong, there is a Yaojia Lake near the village, and the lakeside is a summer resort of the Yao family who has moved into Changzhou City.

The other industries built by the water are still the common compact pattern of Jiangnan dwellings, only seven or eight acres in size, but they are divided into nine courtyards, many of which are still two-story buildings, but it is enough for Zhu Yuan to bring a group of large and small people.

It was the sixth day of the seventh month of the leap month.

I didn't have to worry about the heat, because I had just been sick again, and I still got up late.

After breakfast, I came to a small courtyard of the daily council in the westernmost part of Beiye, the time was close to Jizheng, and at 10 o'clock in the morning, a group of people were already waiting.

Liu Lian first sent a book of timber reserves from all over the country.

In recent months, Yinghai Division has set up a total of eight shipbuilding timber reserve bases in the coastal prefectures and counties of eastern Zhejiang, with corresponding shipbuilding plants, and continues to invest manpower to cut wood in the mountains.

As he got closer and closer to leaving, Zhu Yuan sent Liu Lian to various places to conduct an inventory.

This matter is most assured to leave it to 'Liu Qingtian'.

Liu Lian had just returned from Wenzhou yesterday, and had been waiting all night in Zhoushan, and only today did he see the little master of his own camp.

The results are also satisfying.

In nearly half a year, 8 reserve bases, excluding the previous replacement consumption, have accumulated 1.73 million wood reserves, which is equivalent to enough to build a sea ship that can carry 1.73 million stone of grain.

Moreover, logging is still continuing, and it is expected that throughout the year, it is not a problem to reserve 3 million timber in all parts of eastern Zhejiang.

Zhu Yuan was even a little worried.

The 1.73 million pieces of wood, of course, does not mean that it is 1.73 million trees, Zhu Yuan has long understood, the standard of 1 material of wood is one foot in diameter and two zhang long, the trees in this era are very tall, a tree, two or three feet in diameter and more than ten zhang in height is not uncommon, therefore, often a giant tree can even be worth more than 10 pieces of wood.

In the end, these 1.73 million materials of wood are actually only a total of 270,000 trees.

However, Zhu Yuan still thinks that sustainable development should be considered in advance.

Zhu Yuan also felt earlier that human beings did not have the productivity to extinct a creature in this era, but in the last mud snail incident, the officials of the Yinghai Division almost scavenged and captured 17,000 quintals of mud snails in a month for the sake of political achievements, which made him realize that the productivity of human beings should not be underestimated.

After discussing with Liu Lian, Zhu Yuan decided to formally establish a 'greening office' with only one goal, to plant trees.

This is actually a job that Zhu Yuan started very early.

Earlier, it was organized to plant tung oil trees widely in various parts of Mingzhou, and later, the logging team went into the mountains, and Zhu Yuan also explained that if he had spare energy, he would plant saplings at the same time as possible while felling. After the establishment of the baking workshop to process the fish, because it required a large amount of firewood, Zhu Yuan also asked the logging team to plant wood wherever it was chopping, and there should be no bare hills.

It's just that none of this was structured before.

At present, Mingzhou has sufficient manpower, and even Lao Zhu has been sending displaced people from all over the country, manpower is not a problem, and a special team can be organized to be as professional as possible from seedling raising to tree planting to later maintenance.

Zhu Yuan didn't have time to grind, so he made up his mind and determined the personnel specifications of the 'greening department' on the spot.

Eight timber reserve bases, it is planned to set up 1 is the eighth product director, 8 from the eight products of the director, each deputy director temporarily to 300 people, to do things, the follow-up depending on the situation to add manpower, the plan to increase to at least 1,000 people in each place.

Immediately, the roster was found and the staff was allocated.

After dealing with this matter, Zhu Yuan looked at the schedule listed in advance, and said to Liu Lian: "Don't leave yet, listen to this project later." ”

Liu Lian nodded.

In fact, I already know, after all, I have just waited for so long, and I will always talk to people.

Zhu Yuan said a word, and soon two people were brought in.

One of the two is an ordinary official of the Yinghai Division, named Lin Jiu, a young man with a round face in his twenties, and the other is a thin old man, fifty or sixty years old, named Kuang San.

After the ceremony, Zhu Yuan motioned to Lin Jiu: "Let's talk about it first?" ”

Lin Jiu arched his hand again and said: "My lord, the small one went out to sea with the boat, and when he saw that the fish that had been processed on the spot was thrown into the water and discarded into the sea, it was really a waste, so he had an idea. If you can collect it and raise poultry, it may be another ...... for our Haisi New industries. ”

"I've actually paid attention to this matter," Zhu Yuan waited for Lin Jiu to finish speaking, shook his head and said: "The fish caught in the water is actually edible, but it is a little troublesome, and the disposal and discarding into the sea on the spot during the sea fishing process is also the result of weighing, and we can only choose the plan that maximizes the benefits under the existing productivity conditions." ”

Lin Jiu said: "Adult, the small one has carefully considered the joints, and it will definitely be possible." ”

"You continue?"

Lin Jiu said clearly: "If you want to implement this matter, there are only two difficulties, it is not easy to save it when it is launched, and it needs to be transported to the shore in time to feed." Our sea fishing team is not easy to dock during the fishing season, but we can dispatch special personnel and boats to transport. The little one specially looked at the steamers that the adults ordered to build, and it was possible to travel 50 miles in one hour, even if it was 200 miles away from Shengsi, four hours were enough to reach the shore, and even in the hot summer, four hours could be saved when launched. In addition, poultry can be raised on islands such as this Zhoushan Island, and the distance will be narrowed, so small suggestions can be built more for this purpose. ”

Zhu Yuan nodded slightly.

Liu Lian, who listened carefully, was a little impatient and asked, "What about the second difficulty?" ”

Lin Jiu saw that the lord was rushing to speak, glanced at Zhu Yuan, and saw that he was not displeased, so he continued: "The second difficulty lies in the poultry seedlings, if the matter is to advance, hundreds of thousands of young birds are needed," and turned around and motioned to Kuang San, who had been standing next to him honestly: "After the small private inquiry, he found Kuang Lao, and he may be able to solve this time in Kuangjia Village." ”

Kuang San, who had always been humble and fearful, heard Lin Jiu talk about himself, his knees weakened and he knelt down again, and stumbled in an official dialect with a thick earthy accent: "Big ...... Adult, small village, is baked eggs, chickens, ducks, geese, I ...... I can do it. ”

"Old man, get up first," Zhu Yuan said helplessly, and when Kuang San got up, he turned to Lin Jiu again: "Or are you coming?" ”

Lin Jiu introduced.

Kuang San is from Fenghua Prefecture, is the head of a clan, and the Kuangjia Village, where he is located with two or three hundred people, has a unique skill that can artificially incubate poultry eggs.

It's probably a method of fire roasting.

To put it simply, a special hatching basket is used, and the lower side is slowly baked, and the temperature is artificially raised to hatch all kinds of eggs.

With this skill, Kuangjia Village can hatch tens of thousands of chicks of various kinds every year.

Zhu Yuan waited for Lin Jiu to finish the introduction, and did not ask for specific details, but turned to Kuang San sharply and asked, "What is the success rate?" ”

Kuang San's expression was confused.

Lin Jiu took the initiative to answer: "My lord, the craftsmanship is different, and the success rate is also different. Kuang Lao is an expert, he can do seventy percent, if he is a new student, or only two or three percent. ”

Liu Lian, who was obviously very concerned about this matter, shook his head: "Two or three percent is too low." ”

Kuang San also understood at this time, and hurriedly said: "Those are all stupid babies, not much, not much, our village...... Fifty percent can still do it. ”

For artificial incubation, it is a completely blind spot, and Zhu Yuan does not have data to compare hundreds of years later, but he thinks that with the current productivity conditions, the hatching rate of 50% should not be low.

What's more, since the matter has been raised, the follow-up can definitely be improved.

Just like the fire roasting props that Lin Jiu just described, Zhu Yuan immediately thought of the soil kang in the north, which should be better than the roasting basket, and the so-called incubation, the most critical one is the temperature.

Zhu Yuan pondered for a moment, and also felt that this matter was ...... It doesn't seem that hard to solve either.

Thermometer.

Compared with the current has enough manpower and material resources to solve the first transportation problem, Zhu Yuan understands that large-scale hatching of poultry seedlings is the key, if you can't count hundreds of thousands or even millions of hatchery breeding, just hundreds of thousands of small-scale tossing, there is little meaning.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuan found another problem and asked Lin Jiudao: "There is another one, there may be enough water during the fishing flood, but, just like the current season, how to solve it?" ”

Lin Jiu didn't think much about it, and said directly: "Adult, the small suggestion is to only raise ducks, from breaking the shell to growing up, it only takes two or three months." ”

Zhu Yuan thought again.

From the spring small yellow croaker to the summer large yellow croaker, nearly half a year is enough to grow a batch.

Lin Jiu saw Zhu Yuan groaning, thought about it and added: "Besides, my lord, even if it is the current season, those small fish caught in the sea can be used to feed. ”

Zhu Yuan immediately shook his head this time: "I've been thinking about this matter recently, and I plan to finalize the charter as soon as possible." In the future, no matter what kind of fish, or shrimp and shellfish, is too young to catch again, and even if it is caught, it must be released on the spot. These are equivalent to seeds and seedlings, think about it, can you pull out the newly sprouted seedlings in the field and feed them to chickens and ducks? ”

Lin Jiu hurriedly bowed his hand: "Adults forgive sins, it's a small thoughtlessness." ”

Zhu Yuan pondered for a moment again, and felt that this matter could be done, so he said to Lin Jiu: "The matter was proposed by you, and I will give you a Zhengbapin, set up a Mingzhou poultry breeding company, and you will be the manager...... "...... Kuang Lao served as the deputy manager of Congbapin, specializing in incubation. Well, it's just two or three hundred people in Kuangjia Village, which is not enough, at least a thousand-person incubation team must be organized. You're planning now, and I hope to hatch at least 100,000 ducks next year, is there a problem? ”

Kuang San's expression was obviously embarrassed.

It's not to embarrass the goal of 100,000 duck seedlings, but, listening to this little adult's words, this is to take away the food stunt of their Kuang clan.

This...... How can it be?

Zhu Yuan saw Kuang San's embarrassed expression, and after thinking about it for a while, he understood, and said: "Kuang Lao, this kind of thing of artificial incubation is difficult to say, easy to say, and easy, but it is just a control of temperature. If you don't want to, Yinghai Si can find someone to try on your own, but it takes a little more time, and then there will be nothing for you to do. If you agree, not only can you personally have an official position, but your entire village can eat an official food from today, and the young children can still study and study, and it is not a problem to participate in the imperial examination in the future, and it is not a problem to pay homage to the marquis, how to choose, you can think about it and give a reply as soon as possible. ”

Kuang San also learned about all kinds of rumors related to Yinghai Division, so he was willing to take this trip, and when he heard Zhu Yuan say this, he was suddenly a little moved.

He still didn't agree immediately, saying that he wanted to discuss it with his clansmen.

Zhu Yuan turned to Lin Jiu again: "Just a brief chat, you go back and write a detailed project plan for me, how many people are needed, how much budget is needed, and then set a goal at different stages, and so on, understand?" ”

It is not the first time that Lin Jiu has come into contact with the various new words that the little adults can always come up with, this 'project planning' is only the superficial meaning of the word, and he can also understand the approximately, suppressing the joy of just getting a positive eighth grade, and solemnly agreeing with a solemn expression.

Zhu Yuan looked at Liu Lian again: "You personally stare at this matter, if it is done, another industrial chain not only solves the problem of waste of fish caught in the water, but also produces a batch of duck meat every year, duck down is also a good thing, a high-quality warm material." Why can't we take the north in the Central Plains, the cold is the biggest obstacle. In the future, the entire southeast will be rolled out, and if it can provide tens of millions of down jackets a year, the temperature of dozens of degrees below zero can resist resistance. ”

In this era, duck down and goose down have begun to be used as a filling for winter clothes, but they are not common. It's like cotton clothes that have just been popularized for not many years.

Zhu Yuan also knows that the so-called warmth is a systemic problem. However, things have to be solved little by little.

How do you say that sentence, the sun arches and dies, and the merit is not donated.

Liu Lian has been instilled with too many ideas of the future by Zhu Yuan, and when he heard what the little adult said, he would inevitably draw inferences from one another, and solemnly nodded and agreed.

Everyone thought about it and chatted a few more words around this matter, and sent Lin Jiu and the two away, and before they knew it, it was already noon.

He Xuan came over to remind him that although he only dealt with two things, Zhu Yuan could only put down his work for the time being, and by the way, he simply invited Liu Lian to have lunch together, and he could continue to talk about some things.

The two went to a small dining room next door.

When He Xuan and the other three attendants brought lunch, and were sent away by Zhu Yuan, there were only two people left, and Zhu Yuan smiled and gestured to Liu Lian: "How about trying this fish ball?" ”

I want to continue to show off.

Among the large and small groups around him, there are still Crouching Tigers, Hidden Dragons, just say this fish ball, hmm...... It's even better than what Zhu Yuan tasted hundreds of years later.

Thinking about it, it's still not interesting to talk to yourself in front of 'Liu Qingtian'.

Liu Lian picked up a soft fish ball and tasted it, nodded and praised, in fact, he wanted to eat without saying a word, but the external conditions did not allow it, so he could only follow the local customs, and talked about another thing that he had been concerned about in private: "Hanlin, north...... Can we really do it this time? ”

Although he does not have the right to counsel the military aircraft, after all, he has such a father, and he also likes to read military books in private, and Liu Lian can still see many things.

When Zhu Yuan heard Liu Lian mention this, he couldn't help but look at the north, and just thought about it: "Do your best, look at the destiny of heaven." ”

If the foundation of the Yuan Chamber can be eradicated in one go, and the trees fall and scatter, the Ming Dynasty can fight for at least ten years. However, if it doesn't work, there is no way to do it, so we can only make persistent efforts. After all, there are too many variables in the war of this era.
