Become the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Chongzhen!

Chapter 432

The bike is really too fresh.

So much so that after Zhu Cijiong came down from the crowd, he also asked Jiao Boqing to get him a car, and he rode it for fun.

Of course, there is indeed a sense of the kindness of the father and the love for the people, and the meaning of how much this bicycle can improve people's livelihood.

What fell into his hands was of course a hardcover tricycle.

Not to mention the exquisite bell, but also the belt drive, leather seat cushion, not to mention these extra configurations, even the workmanship is much better than the car that is being tested on the street at first glance, and there is an additional Cushions, even detachable ceilings, and all kinds of fancy decorative patterns are not for ordinary people at all.

Thinking about it, if the status is not too high, someone like Zhu Cijiong who just wants to play a new trick would be willing to pay a lot of money for this car.

"The chariot built by His Majesty has infinite uses, but it is a bit wasteful."

After Fang Yizhi inspected the bicycle carefully, he gave his final evaluation.

The car made of high-quality steel is easy to use for ordinary people. It doesn't mean that Confucian scholars like him are really and completely wrong, but that in this world and the environment of endless wars.

Regardless of whether it is the refined version or the beggar's version for civilian use, in his opinion, it is inappropriate to use steel to manufacture cars on a large scale for ordinary people.

After pulling all these bicycles to the market, they will definitely be sold to the people.

However, this emphasis on and worries about strategic materials such as steel still do not understand the current status of the industrial development foundation of Liaodong.

Since it is necessary to develop industry.

Without steel, without suitable steelmaking methods, without enough steel output, what a fucking industrial base!

This is why Zhu Youjian wanted Wang Chengen to start an industry in Nanjing.

Daming has relatively mature steelmaking technology.

Among the commonly used steelmaking methods in the mid-Ming Dynasty recorded in "Tiangong Kaiwu", the fried steel furnace that appeared in the late Western Han Dynasty has developed to the "fried iron furnace" in "Tiangong Kaiwu", which is actually very close to the "fried iron furnace" that was born in 1742. Crucible Steelmaking'.

It also incorporates the 'stirring method', so it is called 'fried iron'.

Zhu Youjian didn't need to mention anything, just relying on Daming's original steel output was enough to support Wang Chengen's creation of a military industrial zone.

Now that it is brought to Liaodong, the crucible steelmaking method will naturally be used, that is, it is still a bit early to play with chemical fuels, otherwise converter and open hearth steelmaking methods can also be tried.

Just waiting for the various factories used to consume steel to operate smoothly, the industrialization of Heiqi will start.

Although Zhu Youjian was in the capital, he never slackened his arrangements for Liaodong's government affairs and development.

Bicycles are a ring.

The conference on agriculture is another part.

On a sunny morning, Admiral Jiao Boqing of Liaoshen presided over the event, and invited officials of Zhengheiqi, Heihuangqi, Heilanqi, and Heihongqi in Shengjing to go to a place reclaimed from the original Shengjing royal enclosure. It is a black flag official farm.

The purpose of the event is to let everyone experience what a large-scale plantation farm looks like with the support of cutting-edge agricultural technology and the support of certain agricultural facilities.

In order to encourage the banners to unify the planning of large pieces of land under their command.

The black flags can also assign planting tasks to balance the supply of various crops or meet the export demand.

Rows of neat corn stretch for miles as if there is no end in sight. Although the poles are not as strong and tall as later generations, they are still shocking enough.

The leaders of the Black Banner tribes and the shamans who came to join in the fun are already thanking the gods such as the God of the Earth, the God of Agriculture, and the King of the Black Banner.

Zhu Cijiong has seen corn on the cob.

The corn that had already been planted in the south of the Ming Dynasty was difficult to promote because of the decline of Ming's control over the local area. However, through Wang Chengen's kind, it caught the eyes of the Longwu Dynasty and was tentatively promoted together with sweet potatoes.

Over the past few years, it has already achieved some scale in Daming.

But generally speaking, Yu Daming is still in the stage of trial planting.

Therefore, Emperor Longwu, who was eager to need some merits, hurriedly offered it to the Xiannongtan in Nanjing.

But Zhu Cijiong has never seen such a large-scale plantation of corn on the cob.

Afterwards, rice, wheat, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and some vegetables were seen in turn. Jiao Boqing personally explained some matters about the operation of the farm, and then said the estimated output of each crop, which made everyone speechless. marvel.

In the end, let me say vaguely that if the farms under each subsidiary are similar, as long as they are in close contact with the government, the government can cover the output regardless of the profit or loss, achieve the government's planting targets, and enjoy various subsidies and rewards.

These words are naturally very attractive.

And this is also a key link in the black flag's agricultural reform.

Let the Black Banner military organization spontaneously unite internally, let them plan the land in a unified manner, form large manors and large farms, and wait for Zhu Youjian's arrangement, and at the same time encourage them to develop more plains in the Liaodong area.

After all, large farms are almost only suitable for being located in plains.

"Heilanqi needs to start a farm like this! It has to be replaced and reclaimed a piece of land!"

The estimated output of just one farm is enough to make Zhu Cijiong, who is not greedy, yearn for it!

Even if he was a vassal before, he might not be so excited when he knew that the fields under his name could produce such output.

But now as the acting flag owner, according to the current taxation of the black flag, after the output of a flag is taxed [-]%, as the flag owner, he can take another [-]% for the operation of the flag. It is said to be operation, but it is actually private Rich, this temptation is really hard to refuse.

Fang Yizhi frowned.

It's not so much the black and blue flags, it's better to say that the black and red flags have to be prepared first.

After what Zu Dashou said, he has already taken some care of the black red flag.

"This matter involves many Niulu under the banner, and nearly ten thousand Qiding may be affected. Your Highness still needs to think about it in the long run."

Just as they were talking, several Tiqi at the sticky pole came over each holding a tray, and knelt down and said that they were here to give gifts.

Sent by Jiao Boqing.

The four earthen pots on the tray were sealed with iron sheets, nothing unusual, the pots were definitely not gifts.

That gift can only be something in a clay pot.

"The canned food that was trial-produced in the factory was sent by the admiral and the generals of each banner. Please Lord Baylor and Zhang Jing to taste it."

"Is it food?"

"Back to Lord Baylor, that's right."

Zhu Cijiong grabbed a jar: "What to eat? Why put it in a jar?"

"Master Baylor, what you took is stewed mutton. This can of food is made by the factory of the Ministry of Industry. It is usually put away. It is said that it can be kept for at least half a year, and it is cooked. You can eat it when you open it. , Of these three cans, one is beef, one is pears, and the other is apricots."

"Half a year?"

Some doubted the authenticity, but now Zhu Cijiong also knew why Jiao Boqing sent this.

The only possibility is to make military rations.

Naturally, it has to be given to the generals of the banners to taste first.

The dignified Liaoshen Admiral has brought the goods.

"I accept it, thank you, Admiral, for me."

"Whoo!"
