Fengping County, Heishi Village Fertilizer Factory.

Early in the morning, it comes alive.

About 500 meters away from the two factories is a warehouse for storing fertilizers.

There is a large flat open space in front of the warehouse, and many people stand in the open space who have come to buy fertilizer.

Some of these people were gentry who owned land in the local area or near Fengping County, some were miners in the coal mine of Heishi Village, and relatives and friends of the same clan who were encouraged by their propaganda and encouragement, all of them were landed peasant families.

At this moment, in addition to the sound of machines running to generate electricity to produce fertilizer, there are more voices from people who come here to buy fertilizer, and everyone is amazed by the power of industry in front of them, and they are looking forward to buying fertilizer for a while.

Among the common earth, stone and wooden house structures of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the reinforced concrete structures of thermal power plants and fertilizer plants are so conspicuous.

However, near the two factories and mines, there is an army sent by Ji Kan, the king of the East China Sea, to guard, and people can only watch from a distance, but cannot get close to the factory.

"Hello folks, I'm Lin Ze."

Lin Ze boarded a high platform that had been set up in advance in front of the warehouse and opened his mouth to attract everyone's attention.

With the blessing of inner breath, his voice easily spread throughout the field.

In the past half a month, Lin Ze has spent the New Year in the main world, and of course he has not forgotten his relatives and friends in the other world.

After the third day of the Lunar New Year, Lin Ze, who pretended to go back to his master to meet his elders, returned.

The New Year's gift has been given to his wife in advance, and at this time, he personally paid New Year's greetings to his relatives and friends here one by one, bringing the relationship between the two sides closer.

This also made Lin Ze just turn his attention back to the other world now, and he didn't have to deal with some trivial matters.

"Uncle Lin is good."

In the crowd, there were shouts of greeting.

At first, it was sparse, but soon it became a large patch.

Well, Lin Ze's knighthood has been upgraded.

Not long ago, the duke announced in public that he raised Lin Ze's title by two levels with the merits of chemical fertilizer to help agriculture.

Now he is the earl of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the title is Fengping County Earl, the same as the three-grade official, with the title of the commander of the white-clothed guard, the fief is in this Fengping County, enjoying the tax-free quota of 30,000 acres of land, and the privilege of tax reduction and exemption for 10,000 people.

As for how to receive the order and how to thank him, they are all details, but there is no need to mention them at this moment.

Seeing that the eyes of many people in the audience were focused on themselves, Lin Ze continued with a smile: "Well, happy New Year, everyone, gather everyone over today, things are similar to the notice before the New Year, today sell fertilizers that can increase the yield of the fields." ”

"After the use of chemical fertilizer, it can increase the fertility of the land, and the lower field can become the upper field, so that the grain yield per mu can increase by at least three or four hundred catties."

"The price of chemical fertilizer is 20 yuan a catty, an acre of land needs to use about 50 catties of chemical fertilizer, if you go to the field, you need to sprinkle a little more, in general, the cost of fertilizer use per acre of land is one or two silver, and the increased production of grain is worth more than 2,000 yuan."

"Therefore, the use of chemical fertilizers is a good thing for everyone to win."

"You also saw it just now, my earl was promoted by this fertilizer, so you don't have to worry about the authenticity of this fertilizer, if you want to buy fertilizer, then go to the accounting office over there to pay the money and get the approval."

"Then, you can come to the warehouse to receive the fertilizer according to the approval slip, and if you don't have cash, you can also directly transport the grain to the granary of the fertilizer factory, and deduct the payment for the fertilizer according to the grain price of six cents a catty."

"At present, the fertilizer reserves of the fertilizer plant are 20,000 catties, which is enough to supply the entire Fengping County and several surrounding counties for agricultural use, so please feel free to buy."

Lin Ze concisely told the fertilizer factory about selling fertilizer today.

It also took care of those peasant families who had no cash.

"Being able to increase the yield of the land is a great merit for countless living people, Uncle Lin is really a saint in the world!"

Immediately, some people spoke in admiration.

There are also some farmers who are not good at words, and at this time, they directly burst into tears of excitement and kowtow to Lin Ze.

The importance of food was all too clear to these farmers, with families living on the harvest in the fields, many having their relatives and friends starved to death, and many volunteering to sell themselves into slavery in order to feed themselves.

If fertilizer really works so well, it is really a feat of countless living people.

According to common sense, everyone will be skeptical of a new thing.

But the fertilizer introduced by Lin Ze is different, one is that Lin Ze is already a very reputable existence in the local area, and the industrial coal mines under his command also have rail cars and dart boards, so that many families in several counties around Fengping County have lived a decent life on their own.

The fact that this provides many jobs and countless living people can bring great prestige.

Second, the imperial court directly canonized Lin Ze as an earl because of chemical fertilizer, which further endorsed the authenticity of chemical fertilizer, after all, in people's hearts, the Great Zhou Dynasty that allowed many people to live and work in peace and contentment was still very reputable.

There is a third reason, that is, the news of fertilizers has not been released recently.

As early as after the official production of chemical fertilizer, this matter began to warm up, in addition to the propaganda in Linze's basic brand coal mine, but also mobilized the power of the government, which led to the official opening of the fertilizer plant at this moment, so many people gathered.

"You don't have to thank me, it's something to be proud of to be fed on your own."

Lin Ze smiled and comforted everyone, and then announced that the fertilizer factory had officially started business.

——

Next to the warehouse, many accounting accountants sat behind the desks in a row.

Lin Ze has not stopped recruiting and training accountants, and there is naturally no problem in dealing with this newly opened fertilizer plant at present.

Many of the dart masters who were transferred from the Moon Shortage Dart Bureau were maintaining order on the scene at this moment, and the people who came to buy fertilizer were guided into a neat formation.

"Show me my name, place of origin, and title deed."

The accountant opened his mouth to the dark-faced and thin old farmer in front of him.

The old farmer has long been taught the rules by Lizheng, and it is related to the things in the field, and Rao is no matter how stupid his brain is, he has repeatedly learned and memorized the rules.

At this time, he didn't ink, he directly said his name and home address, and gave his title deed to the accountant in front of him to take a look.

"Zhang Dahei, who lives in Zhangtun Village, Jiahe County, has a total of 5 acres of fields, all of which are fields, and each mu of field needs 70 catties of fertilizer, and a total of 350 catties of fertilizer are purchased, with a price of 7,000 yuan and 7 taels of silver."

The accountant confirms the information with the old farmer in front of him.

Chemical fertilizer is an important tool that Lin Ze made in order to obtain luck, and it is impossible to let these fertilizers be monopolized by a few people, so customers are required to buy on demand with the title deed, and cannot hoard and resell.

The old farmer nodded again and again, promising to confirm that the information from the accountant's mouth was correct.

"Zhang Dahei, do you know the rules, after the grain in the field is harvested, in addition to taxes and rations, the majority must be sold to the Zhiyuan grain store under Uncle Lin's command at the market price of six cents a catty, do you agree?"

At this time, the accountant followed the process of routine inquiry.

Lin Ze sells chemical fertilizer in order to fluctuate the fate of many people to earn luck, and the harvested grain is to stir up a bigger storm, of course, these grains that have increased the production of chemical fertilizer are collected for use in order to calm the border troubles, so as not to flow to the market in a disorderly manner.

This rule, the old farmer named Zhang Dahei also knows, this is not a big deal for him.

Anyway, when selling grain, it is not sold to anyone, so after the accountant spoke, Zhang Dahei continued to nod.

"Well, let's pay the money, are the receipts of Zhiyuan Gold Bank ready?"

"If you are not prepared, you can go to exchange the voucher now, do you see over there, ten zhang away is the office of Zhiyuan Gold Bank."

The accountant finally asked.

This regulation is to facilitate transactions and reduce the possibility of money being hacked.

Lin Ze asked families who want to buy fertilizer to send the prepared money and grain to Zhiyuan Gold Bank in advance to exchange for receipts of corresponding value.

The old farmer continued to nod, he had already learned about the fertilizer, and he and his family had prepared the money and grain to be exchanged for receipts.

The accountant received the slip, confirmed that there was no problem, and then began to write the approval slip.

After the accountant wrote the approval slip, Zhang Dahei gave the accountant a Zhiyuan Gold Bank exchange slip that had been prepared a long time ago, and then took the approval slip from the accountant and went to the warehouse to receive the fertilizer.

In the fertilizer warehouse, there are three types of fertilizer in packaging.

One is a fifty-pound pack for Ueda, one is a sixty-pound pack for Nakata, and the last one is a seventy-pound pack for Ueda.

Zhang Dahei took the approval slip, and after confirming with the warehouse manager, he received five bags of seventy catties of fertilizer.

In addition to receiving chemical fertilizer, the warehouse manager also told Zhang Dahei and other people around him about the correct use of chemical fertilizer, and how to deal with the problem of using organic fertilizer to solve the problem of soil compaction and soil fertility after the use of chemical fertilizer.

All the farmers listened attentively to these contents, after all, their livelihoods were at stake.

Subsequently, Zhang Dahei and his two sons loaded the fertilizer onto their own cart and pushed it to their home.

Along the way, Zhang Dahei could see the officers and soldiers patrolling by from time to time on the road.

According to the normal situation, Zhang Dahei was afraid when he saw the officials and soldiers, afraid that these military masters would not agree with each other and extort money, and he was also afraid that the other party would be extremely unparticular and slander them for the bandits to kill people and seize money.

But right now, Zhang Dahei is not afraid, but feels at ease.

Because these officers and soldiers were at the request of Uncle Lin, they deliberately protected those of them who came to Fengping County to buy fertilizers.

Chemical fertilizer is precious, not only representing some money, but also representing the root of everything, food.

In this case, it is inevitable that someone will take risks and rob fertilizers.

After all, this thing can be used to grow elixir.

The royal family was persuaded by Lin Ze not to make trouble, which does not mean that some half-irrigation forces in the people who are not up or down will not be able to make Zhi faint.

At this moment, on the side of Fengping County, the garrison officials of Fengping County cooperate to maintain law and order, and when they leave Fengping County, they are protected by their local military forces.

The government also attaches great importance to agricultural affairs, and Lin Ze used his prestige to cooperate with the prestige of the government itself to sternly warn the people below.

If something goes wrong, it's really going to kill.

——

On a watchtower not far from the fertilizer factory, Lin Ze drank tea with the grandfather and Zhao Cheng, the elder of Mingyue Tower, and looked at the orderly operation of the fertilizer sales site below.

Ji Kan and Ji Qingyan actually wanted to come over, but they were also busy with the business that Lin Ze had ordered them to do, so they couldn't be there at this time.

As the fertilizer continued to be sold, Lin Ze could clearly see that the balance of his luck displayed on the Heavenly Gate began to skyrocket.

"Uncle, in addition to announcing the decree of the old slave this time, the second is to ask you on behalf of Your Majesty, when can chemical fertilizer be used to grow elixir."

The playboy saw Lin Ze retract his gaze and asked.

On the side, Zhao Cheng was also very concerned about this issue, he had received news about chemical fertilizer from some disciples of Mingyuelou who were helping in the Yueqian Dart Bureau here in Fengping County, so he wanted to buy chemical fertilizer to grow elixir.

But some time ago, Lin Ze had been using the excuse of going back to the mountain gate, but he didn't show up, so it wasn't until today that Zhao Cheng found an opportunity to discuss with Lin Ze about Mingyue Tower's purchase of chemical fertilizer planting elixir.

Originally, Zhao Cheng thought that the relationship between himself witnessing Lin Ze's marriage and Lin Ze giving him a New Year's gift was very simple, and it was enough to mention it.

turned out to be unexpected, but was rejected by Lin Ze.

But he still thought that the interests of the people in the world were in the interests of the world, and the righteousness of wanting everyone to eat was blocked, so that Zhao Cheng didn't know how to open his mouth if he wanted to persuade Lin Ze to be accommodating.

"I want to think about it."

Lin Ze didn't answer immediately, and most of his energy was focused on the two peerless masters in front of him to prevent them from sneaking up on him.

Although the probability is low, it is not impossible.

While on guard, he also divided some energy and began to think about their requests.

Ji Kan once said that the current cultivated land area of the Great Zhou Dynasty is 1.2 billion mu.

Because of the increase in population, it is still in the process of gradual reclamation, so all these 1.2 billion mu of land can be counted as a field, and 70 catties of chemical fertilizer are needed per mu, and a total of 42 million tons of chemical fertilizer are needed every year.

After deducting farm fertilizer, it is estimated that at least 30 million tons of fertilizer a year must be prepared.

Then there is the fertility consumption of the elixir, and these elixirs are basically a large area to grow a plant, and they need to grow for several years or even more than ten years.

And basically after picking an elixir, the medicine field needs to be cultivated for two or three years before it can be reused, so it can be estimated that one mu of elixir field is conservatively estimated to need 1,000 catties of fertilizer, and 100 million mu of medicine field needs 50 million tons of fertilizer.

Then we calculate the fertilizer needed for the population settlements outside the Great Zhou, and in general, it may take 100 million tons of annual production to barely enough fertilizer for the whole world.

According to the calculation of people's lack of popularity, once such a good thing as chemical fertilizer is produced on a large scale, people will inevitably double the number of farmland and medicine fields, and the annual output of 200 million tons of chemical fertilizer can be used at that time.

And the figure of 200 million tons is basically the same as the fertilizer production of the main world.

After calculating the estimated total consumption, we can then calculate the speed of productivity expansion on Lin Ze's side.
