Ming Zuo

Anyone close to him can find that as long as he comes to Taiwan, Zuo Menggeng will be very happy.

Although the island is really nice.

The scenery is pleasant, the products are rich, and the location is important.But the emperor's affection is still surprising.

"As of this year, most of the wasteland has been reclaimed. Immigrants from Fujian, Jiangxi, and Guangdong have taken root and like life here."

In front of Zuo Menggeng and Gongduan, the endless rice fields were lush and lush, and the golden ears of rice swayed gently in the wind, playing the most beautiful melody in the world.

No matter in any era, a good harvest is the most joyful thing.

Taiwan is blessed with the advantage that crops can be grown three times a year.Therefore, after taking office, Gong Duan devoted a large part of his energy to agriculture.

The results are naturally gratifying.

Nowadays, Fujian, Zhejiang, Guangdong and many other places all rely on food from Taiwan.

Never underestimate this.

There are three provinces that have found a source of food supply, which means that more food from the south can be sent to the north.

Coupled with the output of Liaodong, the empire's grain industry has begun to overflow.

Grain prices are falling step by step, forcing grain merchants to start looking for new ways to increase the added value of food.

Zuo Menggeng actually saw snow cakes being sold in the market.

Taiwan's geographical location determines that it is hard not to develop.

This is the center of communication between the mainland and Luzon, Batavia, Ryukyu and other places. The ships passing here every year alone are enough to make Taiwan earn a lot of money.

So much so that Gongduan, the provincial government of Taiwan, did not have the tragic situation of being sent to a smoky place at all, with a wide body, fat body, and ruddy complexion.

"In another three years, I can increase Taiwan's output value tenfold. By then, I'm afraid Jiangnan will lag behind here."

Zuo Menggeng believed Gong Duan's rhetoric.

In the previous life, Taiwan was wandering outside, and could become one of the four little dragons.Now that there is a huge country behind it, it is an extravagant hope not to develop.

And what he likes about Taiwan is not geography, but the output here.

Today, the sugar industry in Taiwan is in full swing. There are sugar processing factories in Tainan, Taipei, and Taichung, which produce as much as 2000 million catties of sugar each year, making them the largest source of sugar supply across the country.

"Luzon is also stepping up the construction of sugar plantations, and the conditions there will be better. I have only now discovered that after the people become rich, the demand for sugar is so terrifying."

Speaking of sucrose production, Gong Duan was filled with emotion.

In the past, ordinary people bought a little bit of sugar cautiously, and the quality was not very good, unless it was a holiday.

But now, if you walk into a grocery store, you can see all kinds of candy on the shelves.

When doctors exhort thousands and thousands of times to let people eat less sugar, it also indicates how good life is.

"No matter how high the sugar output is, we are not afraid of waste, but we are afraid of not being able to keep up."

Zuo Menggeng has different views on the development of the sugar industry.

What Gong Duan saw was only commerce and the food industry, but what Zuo Menggeng saw was military and chemical industries.

The use of sugar in the military and chemical industries has now entered the fast lane in the empire.

The military consumes no less sugar than the civilians every year.

The benefit is that the power of weapons is getting stronger and stronger, which greatly helps the army's operations.

The latest rocket launcher has a range of 3000 meters.Although it is still not very accurate, it is king to hit far.

Zuo Menggeng also knew that the equipment department was already researching something called a gyroscope.

Once successful, the error of the rocket will be reduced exponentially.

There is a guy who retired from the rocket launcher unit. He was inspired by the rocket and thought that this thing should be able to send people to the sky?

So he made a homemade rocket, and instead of firing it forward, he fired it upwards.

As a result, the rocket fell and caused a fire, which made him lose his fortune.

Just when he was about to be thrown into prison, he received a venture capital of 50 yuan from the royal family, and happily devoted himself to research.

Of course, no matter how the sugar industry is in full swing, it is not worth Zuo Menggeng's trip in person.

There are only very important things that can make Zuo Menggeng come to Taiwan on purpose.

The tall and straight trees are straight into the sky, and they are neatly arranged on the vast land.

Obviously, these trees are artificially cultivated.

Workers carried buckets into the forest, then inserted the small iron pipe in their hands deeply into the tree trunk, and hung the bucket on it.

After a while, a milky white liquid slowly flowed out of the small iron pipe.

Seeing this scene, Zuo Menggeng, who is as powerful as Zuo Menggeng, couldn't help but tremble all over.

For this thing, he lowered his figure and walked into the factory himself.

After all, in this era, no one except him knew what the milky white liquid was for and how to use it.

His Majesty the Emperor gave up his busy government affairs, nestled in the factory, and personally guided the workers to work.

Not only that, but he also asked a small steel factory to produce a lot of parts according to his drawings.

A month later, His Majesty the Emperor assembled these parts together in full view.Finally, take out the things that the milky white liquid turned into one by one.

Gong Duan is not stupid when he sees something so soft that it turns into a circle again.

"Can this thing be made into a wheel?"

Zuo Menggeng took an inflator and filled it with gas.After beating for a while, the originally deflated thing swelled up completely, and it felt tight and firm.

"This is an epoch-making product. From now on, we will be able to go further."

The things produced by the milky white liquid are divided into two types.

One is an inner tube that can be inflated, and the other is a hard tire with a pattern.

When Zuo Menggeng assembled the inner tube and outer tire by himself, the world's first bicycle was born.

This is a full-body bicycle with not only rubber tires, but also springs under the seat for shock absorption.

When people saw that the monster with two wheels on the front and back was being ridden by Zuo Menggeng at such a speed that it did not fall over, they were all dumbfounded.

After the public end also tried it, his eyeballs turned red.

"Pass down the order and ask the military to take care of the rubber plantation. Anyone who dares to leak the secret will be killed without mercy!"

When the tires were put on the wheels of the artillery, and the heavy artillery that originally required three horses to pull it now only needed one horse to walk like flying, the military understood the strategic value of rubber far better than the government.

"The rubber plantation will continue to expand, and Luzon will also expand. There are not enough of these things. Don't be afraid of someone robbing the business."

Zuo Menggeng was afraid that the public would cherish his broom with his broom, so he gave special instructions.

As the name suggests, Gongduan is indeed a generous person.

"Concrete road construction will be accelerated."
