Chapter 370 Industry and Agriculture

The sun was shining brightly, and Li Yan took a hoe in the field outside the palace early in the morning, farming with the tribe's farmers.

The imperial city over there is stepping up construction, and the farmers here are stepping up their cultivation.

There are many farmers turning the soil on the square vegetable fields, and they want to plant carrots.

Li Yan was holding an iron hoe, and he was digging furrows with the farmers, and in the field next to him, an elephant was pulling an iron plow to plow the field.

"This kind of hoe is very good, and it will be mass-produced according to this style in the future." Li Yan wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to others.

"Brother, there is still that iron plow, do you want it too?" Ying said from the side. Ying is Li Yan's younger sister and the Minister of Agriculture of the Han Empire. She manages the Ministry of Agriculture and the farm tool factory.

"Well, make more iron tools and promote them to other counties and towns." Li Yan nodded.

If you want the Han Empire to develop rapidly, you have to start with production tools, and crude iron farm tools are undoubtedly the best choice.

Although Li Yan was enthroned as the emperor of the Han Empire, he still hadn't fully transformed himself in front of the Jiang people, especially when he saw that the agricultural and industrial technology of the tribesman was backward, he would go to give guidance on the spot.

He was busy making paper money a few days ago, but now he is busy going to the fields to do farming.

The agricultural technology of the Han Empire was too poor. Only the farmers of the Jiang tribe had some agricultural technology, and the other tribes stayed in the late stage of slash-and-burn farming.

Li Yan had to integrate the agricultural tools currently used by people and set standards, such as the style of the iron hoe currently used, the iron plow, and pig iron agricultural tools such as iron shovel and iron fork.

After several days of testing, these new agricultural tools have finally passed the test and can be mass-produced.

"Ying, we have to make a large batch of agricultural tools before the autumn meeting, understand?" Li Yan asked again.

"Yeah, by the way, there doesn't seem to be much iron ore in that iron factory." Sakura said.

At this time, Keban next to him quickly said: "Yes, there are not many iron stones in the iron ore. Ankylosaurus drilled very deep, and it is difficult to find iron ore. If Your Majesty wants to mass-produce iron, I guess The iron factory not only needs to expand its production scale, but also needs a new iron mine."

"Iron mines. Our Han Empire is so big, don't we have any iron mines?" Li Yan asked.

"Yes, we found an iron mine. It's in the southwest swamp, where the Beng tribe is, and it's the current Benghe town." Ke Ban said, "I sent people to investigate."

"Keban, you are very good. You know that the iron ore is out of iron, and you know how to explore." Li Yan praised, quite satisfied with Keban's performance.

The development of an empire is inseparable from agriculture and industry, and iron ore is the foundation of industry, and iron ore resources are inexhaustible. This shell spot knows how to explore, which is quite good.

"Hey, I also saw that the iron mine we dug couldn't dig much iron ore, so I sent someone to look for it. Unexpectedly, the clan leader said that they had mines there, so I went to have a look, and found that there was really an iron mine Mine." Keban scratched his head and said.

"Let's go, let's go take a look now." Li Yan said with a smile.

"Ah."

Li Yan went home and changed into his luggage, and he and Keban came to a flat place by the river in the imperial city where flying beasts ascend and descend.

This flat land is thousands of square meters covered with sand, surrounded by a row of pens for people and animals to live in.

This is the Dahan Imperial City Airport, and this name was also changed by Li Yan a few days ago.

The speed of flying beasts is fast, and it is convenient for people to reach various towns. Now there are several flying beasts of Fengshen pterosaurs, giant eagles, and ancient gods pterosaurs. The wheelless is very convenient for carrying people or transporting goods.

Li Yan and Ke Ban came to the airport, got on a Fengshen pterosaur and took off into the sky.

The huge Fengshen pterosaur soared in the sky, flying very smoothly.

"Is this Fengshen pterosaur the one we hatched last year?"

Li Yan looked at this Fengshen pterosaur, and felt that the speed and physique of this Fengshen pterosaur were stronger than ordinary Fengshen pterosaurs. Only animals hatched with eggs and raised with animal feed and witchcraft medicine would be stronger than ordinary animals. Beasts are powerful.

"That's right, the Wenshi Beast Witch has been raised with witchcraft, and its physique is twice as strong as that of an ordinary Fengshen pterosaur." Keban said.

In less than an hour, the Fengshen pterosaur drove the crowd to the destination.

I saw a large wooden walled city by the river, a group of thick-nosed dragon beasts parked at the gate of the city, and some tribesmen were loading and unloading goods.

The Fengshen pterosaur landed steadily, and this is the residence of the clam tribe.

In the past, the Bang tribe belonged to the Jiang tribe, and it was the place where leather was made for the Jiang tribe. There is also a Jiangnan leather factory here.

Now, with the establishment of the Han Empire, this beng tribe has logically become a town attached to the Jiang family's imperial city, called Benghe Town, and the mayor of the town is the original chief of the beg tribe, called the mayor of beng.

When Mayor Bang learned that Li Yan was coming in person, he immediately ran out of the Jiangnan leather factory to greet him.

"Your Majesty. Your Majesty is welcome to inspect Benghe Town." The Mayor of Beng came to Li Yan, bowed his waist and cupped his hands in a salute as a monarch and minister.

This is a necessary etiquette, and it is the etiquette that Li Yan asked the county magistrates and officials to observe the emperor.

"En." Li Yan nodded.

"Beng, Your Majesty is going to the iron mine in Banghe Town, which is the cave I visited last time. Please lead the way for Your Majesty," Keban said.

"Yes, I'll go right now."

After all, Mayor Bang hurriedly communicated with the Pachynososaurus team next to him, and finally returned with two Pachynososaurus.

"Your Majesty, the iron ore is in the woods, let's drive the beasts to it." Mayor Bang said with a smile.

"Ah."

Li Yan sat on the saddle of the Pachy-nosed Dragon, and the group of people entered the woods not far away and walked northeast.

The tall and dense forest is very quiet, and there are basically no medium-sized carnivores, only a lot of water dragons and parasaurolophus in the forest. Before the Jiang tribe, in order to ensure the safety of each clan, they would hunt and kill the surrounding carnivores. The meat obtained is used to feed the war beasts, and the soldiers will hunt the carnivorous beasts in the territory every once in a while.

As he was walking, Mayor Bang suddenly looked serious, as if he had thought of something, he drove the beast to Li Yan's side and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know if I should report something to you. It’s not a small thing, it’s not a big thing.”

"Huh? Let's hear it." Li Yan said.

"It's like this. This area is governed by our Benghe Town. A few days ago, some hunters from our Benghe Town went hunting in the woods near the iron mine. They also brought dire wolves there. Once a group of dire wolves The wolf chased and killed a velociraptor, and chased into a small forest, and after the hunter followed in, he found that the dire wolf and the prey were gone.”

Mayor Bang paused, and continued: "This is very strange. Those hunters also said that they saw a blue light appearing in the grove, but after entering, the blue light disappeared, and the beasts also disappeared. Do you think it's strange?"
