Villager of Daming

Chapter 617 A loyal heart asks about the fate
"Hanhan's skewers are the best." Zhu Xi took a handful of stuffed rice noodles from Hanhan and thanked him with a smile.

Zhu Biao stretched out his hand and took away half of it: "This canal will continue to be deepened and widened. We can see that the best means of transportation is the train. Build the rails and the train will run fast and steadily."

"When Your Highness goes back, we can build a railway from Nanjing along the Qinhuai River, Yanzhi River, Shijiu Lake, Danyang Lake, and Huangchi River, and then build a railway to the iron ore area to form a circle."

The head of the village told him what he had planned. Hanhan had been thinking about building a railway to Xiaqiu Village two years ago.

As long as the court agrees, Xiaqiu Village can pay for it by itself. If you want to be rich, you will be rich soon.

"We think we should build it from Yingtianfu to the mouth of the Yangtze River first, where things can be unloaded and loaded onto trains to be transported to Yingtianfu."

Zhu Ping held a different opinion. Why build a railway to Xiaqiu Village?Is it convenient for you to go back and play?
The head of the village argued with reason: "Did your Highness forget the steam engine ship? It's just going against the current. The Yangtze River has strong currents, so we are not afraid of being stranded."

"It is easier for a steam engine boat to go to Xiaqiu Village. When will the river in Jiangnan run aground? Sea-going ships can run easily. The Rouge River is very wide and deep."

Zhu Xi shook his head. With that little steam engine, it now takes two hours to go to Xiaqiu Village and one and a half hours to get there from Xiaqiu Village.

From the Huangchi River entering the Yangtze River to the place where the Qinhuai River enters the Yangtze River, Xiaqiu Village flows downstream, and the last section of the Qinhuai River flows countercurrent.

What is the use of building railways?Is shortening half an hour the goal?
Zhu Biao reconciled: "It would be better to build the railway from Yingtianfu to the mining area first. The transportation volume is large and the distance is close, about a hundred miles."

The head of the village thought for a while and said: "Okay, according to what the prince said, build that road first. Iron is indeed needed the most.

In addition, build a railway from the route we are taking to the fiefdom of His Highness the King of Qin, and bring Yanchang County above, where there is oil.

During the dry season of the Yellow River in winter, railways are relied upon to transport supplies to avoid delays.

oh!Since we can't go over the mountain, we need to go around the mountain road from Lantian County. It was originally agreed that the road would be built, and the railway and land road would be built together. "

"Okay!" When Zhu Xi heard that the railway was going to be built to his home, he nodded repeatedly and supported it. The mayor is a good person!
“There is a shortage of coal in the Jiangnan region, and it is difficult to obtain firewood for cooking. The temperature in winter is low, which has a great impact on cardiovascular disease.

If the coal from Henan can be transported to Jiangnan, and the coal from the Jin Dynasty's fiefdom can be transported to Jiangnan, it can promote the economic development of the Jiangnan region.

In future buildings, more cement and bricks will be used, which is simple and strong.

There are materials for burning cement in the Nanjiang area, but there is no fuel. Use firewood to burn cement, or use firewood to smelt steel. Your Highnesses know the consumption and difficulty of raising the temperature. "

When Satonagami said this, he thought about what Hanhan mentioned, the railway will be repaired slowly!The army is also idle when it is idle.

A hundred thousand troops on the border in Beiyuan are enough to withstand it. How many troops are left in Beiyuan that can fight?
Even if they try their best to have children, the children don’t need to grow up?
Every year of delay, Ming's weapons will be improved.

Hanhan said that in two years' time, the guns will not contain breech-loaded paper bullets, but copper-cased bullets, and then the repeating machine gun will appear.

Every time Beiyuan gives Daming Xiaqiu Village Laboratory one year to develop, the combat difficulty it will face will increase many times.

"Yes, coal is valuable. As long as it is lower than the price of firewood and there is profit at the same time, it is worth transporting. In the end, we can earn back the money for building the railway.

The key is that it can also transport other things, including people. Then we won’t be afraid that people from all over the place will run around and become difficult to manage.

We have to build a boiler and install heating. We discovered that Yingtianfu needs heating in winter, it’s cold! "

While Zhu Xi was talking, he actually talked about heating. Who said Jiangnan shouldn’t have heating?It's only a few degrees above zero in winter, isn't it cold?
In winter in Nanjing, it sometimes snows!The temperature is below zero at night, and people's adapted temperature must be at least [-] degrees, preferably [-] degrees.

If the indoor temperature is 23-[-] degrees Celsius, you can open the windows for ventilation and do not need to wear clothes in the room.

Zhu Biao took a sip of the beer and burped: "Uh~! It feels like there is a shortage of people. Now that production technology and productivity have improved, the shortage of people has become more and more important. A large amount of labor is consumed in the fields, which obviously delays other aspects of work. Development requires lifting people off the land and requires technical support."

He began to analyze the problem of social employment structure. In some places, there are people but no land, and in other places, there are land and no people.

Some people who had land but no place left to live in places where there were people and no land because there were less wars there and people who later migrated there to prevent poor management.

That is to say, the average population occupying land is not equal in different places. People who originally owned land in their own families abandoned their land and went to other places to farm other people's land.

"Your Highness, don't be busy moving the population back. After we go back, the soldiers of the army will be assigned to various places to carry out literacy education.

The process of literacy itself is a process of learning knowledge, teaching breeding and planting techniques to the people.

It takes time to convert production technology into productivity. Even if people are asked to use livestock for farming, there must be enough livestock to work.

The production and operation of steam engines cannot be accomplished without technical personnel, and one bite cannot make you fat. "

The director understood Zhu Biao's anxiety. He always felt that development was slow and needed to speed up, because he saw something different and had hope in his heart.

"Oh~!" Zhu Biao stretched out his chopsticks to pick up the grilled eggplant: "The eggplant is good, and it has a lot of minced garlic. This year... people in many places can eat fresh eggplant and cucumber."

After taking a bite of eggplant, Zhu Biao felt a sense of accomplishment. His trip was not in vain, but he left the princess and his son behind and ran out.

After all, many people can have enough to eat, and at the same time they have production tools and resources.

I don't think there should be many people freezing to death this winter, let alone starving to death.

This is to accumulate blessings and virtues for my family. I just hope that I will not come out immediately and stay in the imperial city for two or three years.

Zhu Biao comforted himself while feeling distressed.

When I first came out, I was thinking about rushing all the way to get the jade seal from somewhere, and then come back to celebrate the New Year.

As a result, they did come back to celebrate the New Year, but it turned into the second New Year. They stopped and stopped all the way, and the people watched eagerly.

On this return trip, the next stop is Hejian Mansion. Can I leave on the day of the summer heat?
"Chief, is there anything going on in Hejian Mansion?" Zhu Biao didn't know how he was feeling now. He thought it would be faster if he went back, and he also thought that he planned to fix this line.

"It's okay. There is only one Jinghai County and one Huichuan County. The population is very small. We need to pass through Triangle Dian first and then go to Jinghai County.

If there are rivers in the local area, normal planting will be sufficient. The rivers are suitable for raising poultry, including in Huichuan County. Just tell the local people.

In addition to Cangzhou and Nanpi in the south, Cangzhou has a large plain with a good climate and abundant key water resources, which is suitable for breeding and planting industries and can become a transfer station.

Nanpi, like Cangzhou, is most suitable for livestock and poultry breeding. The soil there can be used to grow alfalfa, wheat, and soybeans.

Since there are canals flowing between it and Cangzhou, no matter what is farmed, it can eventually be sent elsewhere, especially down the river.

However, after passing Hejian Prefecture and entering Shandong, there are more places and the situation there is more complicated. We will analyze each place one by one. "

The chief held a bunch of ribs in his hand. He didn't have time to eat them and answered the prince's questions before taking a bite.

The tendons are cut thickly, and they are not sold on skewers. They are cut thin, like firewood, and are not delicious at all. This kind of thicker one has no other problems except that it is easy to jam the teeth when chewing. It is tender!
