Eighth year of Chongzhen
Chapter 652
Chapter 652
In the current Europa, the simplest sugar-making technology is not something they can possess. The fructose and sucrose that the people of Europa consumes all rely on imports, and sucrose is a luxury that only those nobles can enjoy, and white sugar is even more luxurious. Treasures among treasures.
To give a simple example, in today's Britain, white sugar has even become a "precious medicine" sold in limited quantities in hospitals, and only heavyweight royal family members can use a little when they are sick.
Can you take a bite of white sugar when you are sick? This is the status symbol of the British elite.
On the other hand, in the current Ming Dynasty, white sugar has entered the homes of ordinary people.
Among other things, in the homes of many craftsmen in the capital, white sugar will be placed in a clay pot with a lid. The children in the family will secretly open the lid while their parents are not paying attention, and take a sip with their fingers. The mother fled out of the house amidst half-true and half-fake reprimands.
All of this is due to the seemingly vulgar core technology of the yellow mud water drizzle method, and white sugar quickly became one of the most popular commodities in Ming Dynasty after the traditional export three-piece set of tea, silk and ceramics.
At present, Dongying, which is close to Ming Dynasty, exports about [-] shi of white sugar every year. This is because of the restriction of production. If the production of white sugar is greatly improved, only the market of Dongying will consume a huge amount of white sugar. .
And the Netherlanders, known as the sea coachman, tried every means to buy sugar from Daming and transport it to Europe for sale, making huge profits from it.
This time, the terms of trade with Daming proposed by the East India Company included a specific article related to this, which shows the popularity of white sugar.
The rapid rise of the Four Seas Sugar Industry will completely change the chaotic situation of different prices in various small sugar houses, thus firmly holding the pricing power of white sugar in their hands.
In fact, Zhu Youjian's confidentiality measures are already too late, and the current approach is tantamount to repairing a dead sheep.
All personnel from countries other than Ming Dynasty will be prohibited from entering the sugar production area, this is the best method Zhu Youjian can think of.
It is no secret that the sugar-dripping method of yellow mud water has appeared in the Longwan period. Fortunately, since the sugar-producing areas are all inland and remote areas, at this time there was not a large influx of foreigners. The method has not been spread, and Daming can continue to rely on this method to obtain a large amount of silver from the world.
Four Seas Sugar has sent people to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the sugar industry in Fujian and Guangxi provinces, and strives to acquire all sugar houses under its umbrella within five years, and fully monopolize the output and sales of white sugar. Increase the sales volume to overseas, and the domestic sales share will be further reduced.
If you can earn money from overseas, then focus on foreign trade first, and those who earn domestic money from your own people should stand aside in advance. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have white sugar. Isn’t brown sugar and brown sugar sweet?
In addition to white sugar, a profitable industry that has been in the seller's market for a long time, which requires technical secrecy, the paper industry that Sihai Trading Co. is involved in is also within the scope of strict confidentiality of core technology.
Although in the Ming Dynasty, some areas of Europe also mastered papermaking technology, and some brickmakers in later generations boasted about it, praising the so-called European papermaking technology for promoting the progress and development of Western civilization, but in fact, until the Qing Dynasty In the middle and early period, European papermaking was still in a simple and crude stage, and the paper produced was only rough and stiff papyrus that could be broken at the touch of a touch.
And even this kind of torn papyrus, which is too much to wipe your butt, has a very low output, and the price is only slightly cheaper than sheepskin. Even many famous European painters at that time only dared to make drafts on wooden boards. After repeated finalization, it can be drawn on this kind of grass paper.
In the foreign stories circulated in China in later generations, the so-called da Vinci's prodigal behavior of drawing eggs on sheets of straw paper is absolutely impossible.
Compared with the rough and shallow paper of Europa, China, the originator of papermaking, has developed to the present stage, and papermaking is already quite hard-core.
As far as Zhu Youjian knows, most of the raw materials for papermaking in the Ming Dynasty are green bamboo, which has been soaked and retting-washed with hammers-cooked twice-boiled-bleached-papermaking-dried. manufacture complete.
In addition, bamboo curtains are used when pulling paper, and paper medicine is used when making paper, so that the quality of paper is 100% guaranteed.
Don't underestimate these details, it is this attention to detail that makes the paper smoother and more durable.
That is to say, when the Europeans were struggling to make papyrus, the Ming Dynasty already had a wide variety of paper types.
There are exquisite and ultra-thin rice paper, hard cardboard, and special paper that can be made into military paper armor, and the colors are also varied, which makes people love it.
In terms of the area of paper, the Europeans can't even keep up. The Ming Dynasty can easily produce large paper of more than 56 feet, while the contemporary Europeans can only produce [-] inches of rotten papyrus.
In terms of papermaking alone, Daming was far ahead of other countries in the world, and all this was not completely ended until the so-called "Golden Age".
With the influx of a large number of Western missionaries, they traveled all over China in the name of missionary work, painted Chinese papermaking techniques and brought them back to Europe. The huge white paper that escaped the dream brought a powerful boost to the Europa culture in the eighteenth century.
Since countries in the world have not mastered the manufacturing technology of various papers, Daming relied on the world's leading papermaking technology to produce many classic works, which were exported to Southeast Asia and today's Europe, thus spreading Chinese civilization to the whole world.
Sihai Commercial Bank purchased ten small workshops in Shitang Town, Qianshan County, Guangxin Prefecture, Jiangxi Province, where the paper industry is most developed, recruited more than [-] workers, and established Sihai Paper Industry. All the high-quality white paper it produced was used for It is sold to Japan, North Korea, Jiaozhi and other countries and regions. After the scale of Sihai Paper further expands, the white paper produced will also be dumped to the West.
Today's Shitang Town is a well-known place. The Lianshi paper produced in the town is widely used by the officials of the Ming Dynasty. At present, there are more than 6 workers engaged in the paper industry, and the annual output of various papers cannot be counted.
The well-developed paper industry has also led to the great prosperity of the local tertiary industry. There are various teahouses, restaurants and hotels in the town. Except for the locals who work in the paper workshop, the rest of the old and weak women and children have set up various small houses. The stalls sell all kinds of food and other commodities. The prosperity of the whole town is several times stronger than that of the county seat.
Zhu Youjian is not surprised that Europa's artificial paper technology is so clumsy. What makes him most curious is that there is no handy toilet paper. What do these Europeans who claim to be the spokespersons of the civilized world use to wipe their asses?
It seems that in addition to exporting high-quality white paper, it is necessary to increase the production and sales of toilet paper, save the bearded Europeans who wipe their butts with soil, and let them create more excellent literary works more than a hundred years in advance. Get rid of some ignorant and backward lifestyles as soon as possible.
Daming wants to be the savior of Europe. Those who are obedient will have candies and paper, and those who are disobedient will have flintlocks.
Break their legs.
However, it seems that the Europa people are not only short of tea, pottery, silk, white paper, and white sugar, there is one thing they are desperately short of and urgently need.
