Chapter 191: Great Iron and Steel (3)
Guo Dalu is in the remote Houlong Village, and he doesn't know all kinds of ups and downs within the imperial court, in fact, even if he knows, it's useless, whoever will be the emperor's old official has no dime relationship with Guo Dalu and Houlong Village, the people of the world should still have to endure hardships, and whoever sits in the country is the same, and the little people just need to get more grain in the fields.
If you want to increase agricultural production, you must have good seeds, Guo Dalu now has potatoes in his hands, but they are being cultivated, look at the potatoes in the 21st century to see if the potatoes are not satisfied with the water and soil of the Li Dynasty, and after the planting is successful, it can be popularized on a large scale.
The second is chemical fertilizer, Guo Dalu can still only do some soil fertilizer, farmhouse fertilizer, want to engage in chemical fertilizer, cough cough, this thing is a bit difficult, don't think about it so far for the time being.
The third is farming tools, don't underestimate farm tools, before mechanized farm tools replace manpower, good farming tools have a very direct effect on increasing production and harvest. Moreover, the mountains and rivers in the south of the Yangtze River are not suitable for mechanized farming, even in the 21st century, many farmers in the south of the Yangtze River are still planting small fields by hand, which shows the importance of agricultural tools.
Today's farmers in Houlong Village and even the entire Great Li Dynasty use most of the farm tools made of wood, and the slightly better ones are embedded with iron, so you can imagine how high the labor efficiency of such farm tools is.
Therefore, Guo Dalu wants to make steel, his good steel is not used to make any magic weapons, but to let the farmers have a hoe, nail palladium, and a more labor-saving plough - many local farmers can not afford to raise cattle, is to use manpower to pull the plow, by the way, let the farmers have a good kitchen knife at home, there is a good iron pot, used to learn Guo Dalu's new dishes - the new dishes are fried and fried in oil, only the iron pot is suitable, the original clay pot is also to cook a soup, and it is not suitable for stir-frying.
On this day, in Li Dayan's iron shop, when Guo Dalu faced Li Hua, Brother Hao, Silly Big Man, Li Dayan, Zhou Carpenter, Wang Deen, Huang Manyuan, Da Niu and others describing their prospects and dreams of steelmaking, everyone was stunned, and Li Dayan grinned for a long time and couldn't close: "Grandpa God, every household can use farm tools made of steel, then, how much steel does it take? Our Great Li Dynasty has a population of 100 million trillions, and even a whole steel mountain is not enough." ”
Guo Da Luxin said that the amount of steel used by this idea makes you stunned? The world you come from is full of steel, and even when paving roads, you bury steel bars in the ground.
Guo Dalu said with a smile: "I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, let's take it step by step, first let the farmers in Houlong Village and Yinxian County use strong and cheap steel farm tools, and then gradually promote it to the whole world." ”
Everyone nodded, they had seen the iron mine in Fengshen Mountain, the veins stretched for dozens of kilometers, and the steel smelted from the ore on the surface alone was enough for all the farmers in Yinxian County - the key was whether the steel was cheap enough.
Guo Dalu said: "Steelmaking is a systematic project, I want to train a group of steelmaking workers through our Houlong Village, and they will be the seeds in the future to spread our steelmaking technology all over the world." ”
Everyone is accustomed to Guo Dalu's "invented" technology spreading for free, and now they know that Guo Dalu can increase the power of merit because of this, so they don't blame him for being a loser, but praise him one after another.
Guo Dalu raised his hand and pointed to a few Yixue students and said: "These students are specially selected by me from Yixue, they are more interested in science and engineering, they are our future steelworker seeds, come, to introduce yourself to everyone." ”
These students are all from other villages, they were selected by Guo Dalu to learn steelmaking, one by one is very excited, in the Great Li Dynasty, not to mention steelmaking, that is, ironmaking is a unique skill, if anyone can make good steel, that is the imperial court with a lot of silver to raise the craftsman, but the court is Fenglu, the size is also a official.
At the moment, the children kowtowed to Guo Dalu to thank him for his grace in teaching art, Guo Dalu hurriedly supported them: "I will teach this knowledge in the future in Yixue, it is not a secret that will not be passed on, as long as you study hard, what do you kowtow." ”
However, among several students, there was a student who was maverick and did not kowtow to Guo Dalu, and crossed his hands and said: "This piece of good iron has not been refined yet, so it will be blown, surnamed Guo, what good steel can you refine, let me see and understand." ”
Brother Hao'er's eyes widened, and he pointed at the provocative student and shouted: "Black girl, you are a black girl! You are a girl, how can you come to learn steelmaking?"
The one who laughed at Guo Dalu's bragging was Chen Qingdai, who had already sealed her whole body's spiritual power at this time and became an ordinary village girl, appearing by Guo Dalu's side in a grand manner.
Chen Qingdai glanced at Brother Hao: "Women can hold up half the sky, why can't I learn steelmaking? In ancient times, there were heroines who led soldiers to fight." ”
It is the slogan that women can hold up half the sky shouted by Guo Dalu, and the deeds of good women are also widely spread - it is also interesting to say, the time and space of the Great Li Dynasty and the original time and space from which Guo Dalu came are plausible, some of the history is unrecognizable, but there are also some people or deeds that still exist, and sometimes there will be absurd scenes of Zhang Guan Li Dai and Guan Gong fighting Qin Qiong, but the good deeds of this woman are exactly the same as the original time and space. --Brother Hao was speechless for a moment, but he still said unconvinced: "This steelmaking needs to burn the furnace to strike iron, do you have thin arms and legs, can you wield a sledgehammer?"
The big girl stepped forward and took the hand of the black girl: "This sister, don't listen to these boys shouting, I have seen the homework you have done, it is excellent in Yixue, and Brother Guo's steelmaking method must be different from the original only knowing how to swing a sledgehammer with stupid strength, you will definitely be able to become a steelmaking expert." ”
Chen Qingdai held the hand of the big girl, knowing that the identity of the big girl was extraordinary, speaking of which, Bai Suzhen and Guo Dalu were wild, and they did not plan to marry, but the big girl was a childhood sweetheart, recently Li Ruhai also privately found Guo Jin and discussed the marriage of the two, although Guo Jin did not agree, but he did not refuse, only said to listen to Guo Dalu's own meaning - this is the order of her parents, seriously speaking, the big girl is the real big woman and housewife.
Chen Qingdai was originally not angry with this future housewife, speaking of which, she knew Guo Dalu the earliest - on the black reef, one person on the reef, one dragon at the bottom of the reef, depending on each other, but Guo Dalu didn't know - but now, even a mortal woman climbed on her head. However, in the face of the innocent smiling face of the big girl, Chen Qingdai couldn't lose her temper, she bit her lip: "My name is Chen Qingdai, nicknamed Daiyu, you are the eldest girl of the Li family, right, we sisters will be commensurate in the future."
