Villager of Daming

Chapter 763: Small farmers are the masters of work

"In India, oh, Tianzhu, Tianzhu has a lot of cotton. Let them sell the cotton over there, and we, the Ming Dynasty, will sell them cotton cloth?"

Zhu Wentian came up with the idea of ​​processing. He didn't want to sell Daming's cotton directly. Cotton clothes were better than linen.

He also wants to sell the processed seafood to all parts of the Ming Dynasty for the people to eat.

"Are they willing to wear linen clothes? Ramie, not jute, which is used to make sacks.

They are willing to buy sugar. Historically, the Ming Dynasty exported a lot of sugar, but my people still can’t eat sugar!
Paper, there is paper, and paper can be exported. Just our rice paper, there are too many craftsmanship in rice paper, which is troublesome.

We make simple white paper, using wood, there is no shortage of wood, or we can ask them to transport the wood and we can process it into paper.

However, it is still impossible to find jobs for a large number of women. They still stay alone during the non-busy farming season. "

Zhu Wentian thought one thing after another, considering all aspects.

For example, when plowing the land, there are no big animals, so people have to pull the plow. If the plowing is deep, people can't bear it, and if it is plowing shallow, the effect is not good.

Under this situation, women cannot go out to work and have to help at home. Will the sustainable industry be shut down?
After the war with Beiyuan, a large number of cattle and horses were obtained. Some of the good ones were used for special breeding, and the others were leased to the people in various places.

"When will we be able to mechanize? It's also possible to use animals! A person can pull a plow a day to plow a little bit. There are no people in Shandong to pluck wheat stubble, so we can only... eh?"

Zhu Wentian stopped writing and finished drawing, and at the same time he also thought of an idea.

"This year we are working hard to build plowing equipment. There are a lot of plains in Shandong, Henan, and Hebei, and the yield of wheat stubble cultivation is low, so they have to pay to rent equipment.

Half of the original increased income per mu will be given to me as a rental fee. At the same time, their large animals will be loaned out for free, and others will only feed them.

Women raise chickens at home. Pigs are difficult to raise, dirty and tiring. They make so much money, so they are willing to do it.

If you have extra grain, use some to feed pigs and poultry, and eat the rest to keep your body healthy.

Do the Yi people like to eat air-dried chicken?What about ham?Who doesn't eat pork?Then don't give it to them, because there are too many things to do, and now they eat pork every time. "

Zhu Wentian gave up his plan to provide a large number of jobs for women and just raised them at home!It is also a small farmer economy, providing technology.

And it can provide a large amount of pig skin. Don't braise the pig skin or make it into jelly.

The bones should also be kept, purchased in large quantities, used to make glue, and later used as adhesives when making sandpaper and other things.

At the same time, cod liver oil must not be put into soft capsules!Otherwise, how to store and transport it?Transport the oil to a location and eat it one drop at a time with chopsticks?

"Taking a shower, why is it so hot in the house? I'm sweating all over. What's for dinner? Roast chicken and have a drink! Celebrate the completion of the drawing."

Zhu Wentian dislikes the heat. It's still three degrees below zero outside!It's 27 degrees above zero in the house. You should open the windows to get some air.

He went to take a bath, rubbed each other's backs with his friends, dried his hair with a hair dryer, and when he was preparing the chicken rack, Zhu Yuanzhang came again.

"I don't know what to eat tonight. My sister and I come over and have a look. We can have a meal and have a day off tomorrow." Zhu Yuanzhang explained his purpose.

If Queen Ma follows, she can see men, but other women in the harem cannot have casual contact with men outside.

For example, Concubine Sun and the pregnant Crown Princess went directly to talk to the women in the village, and Zhu Xiongying followed them to play with their friends.

Zhu Wentian's grilled chicken rack has a lot of meat on it, and it's not the sizzling chicken rack sold in delicatessens. It's cheap and doesn't have much meat. It only looks rich when it's wrapped in layers.

The chicken is given to the elderly and children. The chicken is tender and raised in the village without hormones or antibiotics.

'Puff puff puff...' Zhu Wentian sprayed white rice vinegar on the chicken rack that was about to be roasted with a spray bottle. This is more delicious than aged vinegar, which has a too strong flavor.

"If you come to the village, you can always find something you like to eat." Zhu Yuanzhang just took a few bites of the dish.It contains cakes, Sichuan pickles, garlic kelp shreds, aged vinegar radish skins, thick pork skin cowpeas and soy bean pickles, sweet and salty garlic, pickled sprouts and ginger, fennel beans, braised lotus root slices, shredded bamboo shoots...

Anyway, a lot of them are all side dishes. This kind of side dish was most popular in the Song Dynasty. The premise is that rich people can eat it, otherwise it would be good to eat a bowl of noodles.

It's not the stick set meal from Zhu Wentian's time. That kind of set meal is actually other things that are pickled together with the spicy cabbage.

Everything is taken out individually and placed on the plate, including many dried salted fish and fresh cakes.

It is equivalent to taking out each item in Sichuan kimchi and putting it separately instead of one dish.

This thing is cheap. Other villagers have to serve what they want to eat, but Zhu Yuanzhang has to put it out and throw it away if he can't finish it.

"Sister, you choose a few, and we'll choose a few more. Take away the others and don't throw them away. We never ate these good things when we were kids."

Zhu Yuanzhang did not want to waste it, and it had nothing to do with how much money he had.

"Okay!" Queen Ma chose one, six, Zhu Yuanzhang also chose six, and took away the remaining 40 or so.

Zhu Wentian and his friends divided what they took away and could not put it back.

"Ling'er, are there any cans of white fungus and hawthorn? Leave one for me and one for the Crown Princess and Concubine Sun." Queen Ma asked the little girl.

"Yes! I'll get it." The little girl promised and ran out.

The roasted chicken rack was brought up, and there was paper for wiping your hands next to it. You didn't tear it up, you just tore it yourself. Chicken racks that were torn by others always felt uncomfortable when you eat them, so you had to tear them a little bit and eat them yourself to feel comfortable.

"Yi Chang, we have to prepare food tomorrow and take a break. The people in the palace have nowhere to go."

Zhu Yuanzhang told the chief to come back tomorrow because he would still have a rest the day after tomorrow.

Everyone has nothing to do in the harem. If we come here to chat, the children are willing to play. Otherwise, in the palace, each child can only stay in his own palace.

Even if they always go to the village to play, the children's learning results will be better, because they won't bring bad words to them.

At the same time, they went to the village, and the children in the village also studied, and the two parties communicated with each other.

The child who bounced every word he spoke was quite good at stacking blocks!

The most depressing thing is the scholar who teaches them. The first five princes do not enter the main hall, and the other children always learn messy things, but the key content of the lecture is fine.

They all began to doubt life. How do children learn so fast?How did you teach in Xiaqiu Village?Can I go to a demonstration class?
"Your Majesty, don't worry, you can come and receive us at any time." The chief said there was no pressure.

"It's better for our village. We all work together and don't care about each other." Zhu Yuanzhang said with emotion that the people of Xiaqiu Village were united.

"Your Majesty, ordinary villages cannot do this because it involves issues of interests and beliefs.

Either the faith is strong enough, or someone can lead everyone to ensure that everyone gets a lot of benefits.

Otherwise, if you are poor to begin with, you will definitely be dissatisfied when you see how much you do and how little you receive. "

The director does not want to promote this model throughout Daming, as it will cause big problems.

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled: "Our village owns both. Even when we were poor, we were able to raise Hanhan so well."

"Hey? Hanhan! I, um! Hehehehehe..." Zhu Wentian spoke reflexively.
