Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 34 New Changes in Dongning Mansion

"Huaxia Wansheng, Huaxia Wansheng!" The recruits who were driven into the atmosphere shouted vigorously.

The Monument to Heroes shines brightly under the sunlight.

This is an army that is completely loyal to Zheng Kezang.

So the bonuses for the Guards are:

From Monument of Wonders: Loyalty +15%, Morale +10%
From quality idea: Infantry Combat Ability +10%, Artillery Combat Ability +10% (Guards currently have no cavalry)

From the regional building Dongning Military Academy: training degree +10%
There are so many buff bonuses before training, the guards have a bright future!

The matter of the guards can come to an end, Zheng Kezang is very relieved that there is a youth battalion with them.

Zheng Kezang thought that he hadn't made any changes to history, and that a lot of changes had taken place inside Dongning Mansion.

Zheng Kezang's sugar factories, perfume factories, and sugar cane wine factories were all renovated and expanded with cement, and the demand for workers increased significantly.

These factories are now connected together, and Zheng Kezang simply listed them as the Dongning High-tech Industrial Zone.

These things were definitely high-tech industries in the seventeenth century, so there is nothing wrong with hanging them.

Today is regarded as Sunday in future generations. Zheng Kezang gave these workers a day off on Sunday, which is indeed a conscientious employer.

But today, the number of workers coming and going in the industrial park is not small, because the production team system is implemented, and they work more and earn more.

This is the industrious Huaxia worker who works on his rest days.

Zheng Kezang was also happy to see the results, so he went to the cafeteria and asked to cook more delicious food today to reward these hardworking people.

In the industrial park, the workers on the road are uniformly dressed in indigo overalls, and both men and women are in high spirits.

"Captain, I heard that our perfume factory needs to recruit more workers. I would like to recommend my cousins ​​to help here." A young worker asked.

"Er Gouzi, how old are your cousins? Our Highness Jian Guo doesn't accept babies." The production team leader said seriously.

"Captain, my cousins ​​are all 15 years old and meet the recruitment requirements of our factory."

"That's fine, but remember to ask your village chief to issue a certificate to prove that they are over 15 years old."

"Okay, thank you, Captain!" The young worker thanked again and again.

The older captain of the production team suddenly remembered something ordered by the supervisor, and said:
"Chen Ergou, you are the business pacesetter of our production team, and I have a favor for you."

"Captain, are you adding food to me tomorrow?" Chen Ergou's real name is Chen Xin.

"Eat, eat, eat, think about eating all day long."

"Er Gouzi, His Highness Jian Guo opened a literacy class in the park recently, saying that each production team can recommend an excellent worker, and you are the only one eligible for our production team. I have already reported your name to the supervisor."

The young workers rubbed their heads and read and write. Isn't this what the landlord should do?

"Er Gouzi, the literacy class is held at noon and on Sundays. You have to study hard and develop well. Don't forget about our production team."

"That's for sure, Captain."

Zheng Kezang believes that learning is very important, so literacy classes have been rolled out in factories.

"Er Gouzi, they are training again, let's make way for them quickly."

The two of them hadn't finished chatting when they heard the sound of neat running on the road.

I saw a group of black, thin and strong young men appearing not far away.

They lined up neatly in a square formation, and the round neck and long black sleeves on their upper bodies were completely wet with sweat.

"One two three four, one two three four!"

This is exactly the guards recruited a while ago, and they already look good when they run.

Pan Aqiang led the team on the far left side of the phalanx, and the team he managed was the first team of the first battalion of the first guard army.

Looking at their backs going away, Chen Ergou murmured: "Truly a mighty teacher!"

"Ergou, do you want to join them too? Let me tell you a good way. I heard from my relatives that His Highness's military academy is recruiting civilian personnel. If you study hard, you might be able to get in."

"Then I must study hard!" Chen Ergou secretly made up his mind.

Under the strong push of the Ministry of Industry, cement roads began to appear around Dongning Mansion, especially the road from Yanshen to the wharf, which has been fully covered with cement.

For the common people here, cement is simply a product of the gods. It only needs to spread the cement evenly on the original roadbed. After a few days, the cement will completely solidify.

The solidified cement is as hard as iron, and business carriages and carriages step on it, and they all feel very solid.

More importantly, even in rainy days, it is convenient to drive without being affected by muddy dirt roads.

Thanks to this concrete road, and Zheng Kezang’s prosperity in sugar, sugar cane wine, cement, perfume and other industries, Ming Zheng’s foreign trade volume has been rising steadily recently.

No, Thomas Woolhouse of the British East India Company came to Zheng Kezang again.

This blond, hook-nosed Brit has been making a lot of money recently. With Zheng Kezang's perfume, snow sugar and Tibetan fairy wine, the markets in India and the UK are crazy about it.

As soon as his cargo ship docked, the merchandise was snapped up.

This era is an era when supply is less than demand, and there is no surplus of goods. Once the goods produced in Dongning are sold out, they are in short supply, especially perfume, which is needed by the nobles of the whole Europe.

"Dear Your Highness, you must give me more Dongning Beauty Perfume this time. Our East India Company has brought us a lot of sincerity."

After speaking, several Indian servants of Thomas brought up several boxes of silver and opened the lids to show Zheng Kezang.

"My old buddy, you also know that our Dongning perfume is very rare, and none of us can supply it."

Zheng Kezang is well aware of the truth of hunger sales, but he can't sell too much at one time, otherwise the price will drop.

"Your Highness, don't be like this, I can increase the price, one tael of silver, one tael of water, this is the price that God will cry when he sees it." Thomas said with a bitter face.

Zheng Kezang pretended to be pacing back and forth in the reception room, as if he was thinking about how to get him more perfume.

"Thomas, at most one thousand catties a month, no more." Zheng Kezang gritted his teeth and said.

When Thomas heard this, he immediately smiled: "My dear Highness, your decision is very wise."

Perfume is really a money-making thing. Now, the Guards military expenses have been paid, and there is still a surplus. What's more frightening is that Thomas Britain earns more, and the European market is really too big.

If it weren't for Zheng Kezang's incompetence, he would definitely colonize Europe and use it as a place to dump his products.

However, Zheng Kezang is still under a lot of pressure. He has to save money to build the spectacle. He cannot be easily satisfied. The next time Thomas comes again, he will have to raise the price. He has already thought of an excuse: the price of raw materials will increase.

In addition to perfume, Thomas made a large purchase of Dongning Snow Sugar, Tibetan Immortal Wine, cement and other materials, and Zheng Kezang also made a lot of money.

By the way, there are still 110 brilliant points, do you want to change something!
