Chapter 48: The Nine-Tailed Demon Fox
The Lieqian Dynasty is still a little different from the Earth Ming Dynasty.
Except for the demon and the spirit stone.
And then there's the crops.
There's corn here.
Lu Yuan told Gu Qingwan at the East City Gate to use a stick to save people, and the stick was corn.
Moreover, the Lieqian Dynasty also had sweet potatoes, that is, sweet potatoes.
Well......
In fact, there were also sweet potatoes in the Ming Dynasty, and some people in the south planted sweet potatoes at the end of the Ming Dynasty.
also reported the matter to Chongzhen.
As a result, Chongzhen didn't take it seriously.
It may also be because the ancients have always had the idea that the south is orange and the north is orange, so it was not promoted.
Anyway, Lu Yuan said so much, which means that the Lieqian Dynasty is here, and there are basically all that should be there.
But yes doesn't mean it's good!
Take the stick noodles in it.
On the earth it is now popular to eat whole grains.
Some farmhouses and other things, there will be wotou and cakes made of stick noodles.
Another example is the stewed goose in the iron pot, the roast duck, and the cakes pasted along the pot.
It tastes so delicious, sweet and silky, better than the white flour steamed buns.
But that's the stick noodles now!
And the stick noodles of the seventies and eighties, it was really deadly.
Astringent, throat-pulling, not sweet at all!
It's unpalatable to death, if it's not mixed with a little white flour, it's made and cooled.
It's harder than that lump of stone!
The cob that the earth eats now, that is, corn, has undergone countless improvements and breeding.
Another example is the roasted sweet potatoes that are found all over the country in winter.
The sweet potato was big, sweet, and red.
This is the best variety developed by the Yantai Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Yanshu No. 25.
In 2011, it was promoted nationwide and began planting.
Another example is the unicorn watermelon.
No seeds, no seeds.
…… No.
Seedless, super sweet, and super crisp, this is also cultivated by farmers many times.
Another example is the current tomatoes, cucumbers, and eggplants.
and all sorts of other things, in fact, they are not the same as they were 20 years ago, or even 10 years ago.
And the crops here in the Lieqian Dynasty.
Not to mention breeding.
Being able to harvest a good crop is a great thing.
There were no high-efficiency chemical fertilizers here, and crops were not studied and bred.
On the earth, the yield of corn per mu is about 800 catties to 1200 catties.
But in the Lieqian Dynasty, it was only three or four hundred catties, and not even half of it.
Even the sweet potatoes that have the largest yield and are the best to feed.
That is, sweet potatoes.
On the earth, the yield per mu is 4,000 to 6,000 catties.
In some special places, high-efficiency chemical fertilizers can even reach 8,000 catties.
But in the Lieqian Dynasty, this sweet potato yielded about 600 catties per mu.
As a person of the earth, I am used to eating well-cultivated crops.
Eating the crops of this Lieqian Dynasty again, it is really impossible to swallow.
Let's just say that the japonica rice steamed out is not like the rice on the earth, soft and glutinous, and the aroma is overflowing.
The rice of the Lieqian Dynasty is like a bowl of plastic foam, which tastes bad when chewed.
Here, it's just white flour and it's okay.
But you can't eat white noodles all the time.
This month has really made Lu Yuan uncomfortable.
It's meat or something, and it's pretty good.
As the prince of the Han Dynasty.
It's like a bear's paw, venison, monkey brain, or something that can't be eaten on the earth.
But, it's still a little uncomfortable~
At this time, Li Er on the side continued to report his recent income.
Recently, factories have been built in four other cities.
It has solved a lot of labor for the local area, and it is also shipping steadily.
Count the five factories in the Imperial City.
Each factory ships about 200 bicycles and 50 tricycles every day.
This bicycle alone can now bring Lu Yuan more than 400,000 taels of income every month.
But that's not even the most profitable.
The most profitable thing is still soap.
Don't look at the cheap sales, but the shipments are huge!
There is a soap factory here in the imperial city, which can produce more than 20,000 yuan a day.
And this thing has a wider audience than bicycles.
For example, a bicycle costs ten taels of silver, which is actually considered a luxury.
It's like the seventies and eighties of the earth, and it's very powerful to have such a car at home.
Not everyone can afford it.
But soap is different.
It's a good thing, you can use it to wash your face, you can use it to wash your hair, you can use it to wash your clothes, and you can use it in a bath.
Of course, the price of 20 wen is actually quite high.
If you convert this, these 20 pieces are about the same as 200 yuan on the earth.
But who made this thing work, and that's it.
After taking a shower with this thing, the whole body is fragrant and clean.
Everyone can afford to grit their teeth.
Several members of the family use it together.
It also consumes quickly.
The five factories of this soap add up, and it has to be about 600,000 taels a month, which is more profitable than a bicycle.
As for the perfume factory.
Actually, I didn't make much money.
It's actually just a spin-off of soap.
The sum of the five factories is two or three hundred thousand a month.
That's counting the two luxury restrictions.
However, the future of this thing is the greatest.
Now it's time to lay the foundation.
Anyway, now Lu Yuan can earn millions of dollars every month.
It's tens of millions this year.
This has made so much money, and Lu Yuan naturally wants to fulfill his promise.
Take out some of it and start building factories and homestays.
Even add greenery to it and get some entertainment facilities.
However, what is so-called used for the people will naturally be taken from the people.
I built a house for these good workers to live in, and tied a few swings to play with them.
Isn't this going to make them some money?
Recently, Lu Yuan plans to build some more shops in the living area around this factory.
For example, I sell clothes~
The whole small restaurant.
It's like a school cafeteria, a small shop.
You're making a lot of money selling duck necks in it!
After all, my five factories are more than ten miles away from the city.
If you can solve it nearby, you naturally won't run to the city.
What has made Lu Yuan a little worried recently is that his subordinates are running out of people.
I had been relying on my own house slave before.
That is, Li Er's gang.
Li Er is smart.
But it doesn't mean that everyone is Li Er.
Moreover, there are some things that Li Er doesn't understand.
It's really because I didn't study well.
Li Er is a little stronger, at least he can read and write.
And like other people, they don't know a word.
Embarrassment is of great use.
Sad.
When Lu Yuanwei closed his eyes and listened to Li Er on the side talk about the money and expenses he had made recently.
Lu Yuan suddenly opened his eyes.
Then he looked at Li Er on the side and hurriedly said:
"Okay, okay, don't talk about it yet."
With that, Lu Yuan got up and ran towards the stable of the Han Palace.
Li Er, who was whole, said with a confused face:
"Master, why are you going here??"
Lu Yuan didn't say a word and galloped towards the stable.
At this time, a panel appeared in front of Lu Yuan.
【Nine-Tailed Demon Fox】
[The current location of the demon fox: south of the imperial city, about seven miles. 】
[Option 1: Save the Demon Fox, Reward: "Shennong"]
[Option 2: ......]
No option two!!
