It's a pity that the Han Dynasty's current accumulation is only half-baked, and it has not even reached the level of many agricultural technologies. Continuing to focus on industry is somewhat of a trick.
However, Chen Xi was very happy to see these mechanical equipment that had obviously been built and would definitely be used in the future. This showed that the idea of concentrating craftsmen to ignite the spark of wisdom was correct. At least a bunch of things were actually burned.
As for saying that it is not used now, it is somewhat wasteful. If it can be used sooner or later in the future, it is a success. It is better than having to study it again when you want it in the future.
"It's all about betting on the future, right?" Li You said calmly.
Many of the top wise men in the Han Dynasty have actually discovered a strange point in Chen Xi's thinking and logic. However, since there is no way to fully coincide with Chen Xi's position, they are basically unable to realize that the current layout of the future will definitely work, and the future layout will definitely work. To what extent is this outrageous operation?
This group of people, including Xun Yu, Lu Su, and Li You, the top wise men who have really run a country, just think that they can't do it. Chen Xi can do it, but Chen Xi is still very strong and has not given birth. This is actually not something humans can do.
In fact, Chen Xi's current operation method basically solves the biggest problem of the planned economy. In theory, because humans cannot see into the future, there will be blind spots that cannot be reversed as long as the planned economy is used. But Chen Xi proved that as long as you If you can determine the future direction and implement it accurately, then the planned economy is really useful...
Although this is abnormal, no one realizes what common sense should be like. Chen Xi has always been correct in domestic affairs, and then these people are willing to continue Chen Xi’s plan - although I don’t know why this is so Yes, but it's definitely better than what I planned.
In fact, even when Lu Su rebelled against Chen Xi before, he followed Chen Xi's plan. Lu Su himself was not confident in defeating Chen Xi.
"Yes, it's a bet on the future. It's just that the machinery they build must be in the future. The things we are using now are a bit low-level for them. To put it bluntly, some of the machinery at Dongnae Shipyard is different from that of Sangri. The power machine that has been built can be regarded as a real mechanization." Chen Xi said with emotion, it really liberated manpower.
It's a pity that it's too high-end, too expensive, and it's worn out. Except for the group of people in Donglai who can repair it, no one else can even repair it.
What Chen Xi wants now is the most idiotic kind, a harvester, thresher, fan, etc. that is 90% wooden and a small amount of iron and uses manual power.
If you make it too high-end, others won't be able to use it, and if it's broken, there's no way to repair it. Although it can indeed double the efficiency, people still have to consider it all.
Therefore, Chen Xi can only put this kind of high-end gadget, which is close to the fourth generation product, into the future. It is estimated that after Yuanfeng's 20 years, it will be another ten or twenty years before it is possible to use this high-end gadget. Mechanical tools, by that time, there should be more people who understand mechanics.
"I don't pay much attention to these things." Zhou Yu said very calmly, "In fact, in Southeast Asia, the local natives basically still use slash-and-burn farming in the Shang and Zhou dynasties. Thanks to the local rain and heat at the same time, the climate is suitable, but it is also Because the climate is suitable, many local natives simply don’t farm and just forage in the woods when they are hungry.”
This is the current normal situation in Southeast Asia, farming? You can farm whatever you want. When you're hungry, just walk around the forest and eat some fruit. You can walk more than three hundred times a year and it's over. Anyway, it's either a tropical monsoon climate or a tropical rainforest climate. There's not much to eat. Too lacking.
"Store more food. Selling fruits has no future. Although there are indeed a lot of fruits over there." Chen Xi thought for a while and suggested. Although Zhou Yu could become the No. 1 in Southeast Asia by selling fruits, there is really no upper limit for fruits. The upper limit of food is high.
"After the construction of Ye Diao is completed, if you don't restrict it, I will export grain." Zhou Yu has also considered this issue, but Chen Xi, the grain from Southeast Asia, is turned into feed, and the price is really low. Although You can also make some money, but it’s too little.
"Can't you do some added value? We also asked you to plant oil palm. Why do you still feel that it is not formed yet?
look. "Chen Xi said helplessly. He always felt that when he gave Zhou Yu advice, Zhou Yu didn't listen well to his instructions.
"It's not that we don't have any crops, but we are building supporting facilities. When I came here this time, I wanted to buy some equipment. I still have to be more or less self-sufficient." Zhou Yu sighed and said, "Many things are needed. It requires certain processing, and this requires some equipment. Of course, it would be better if we could produce it ourselves.”
"That's a good idea." Chen Xi said angrily, "I can give you the technical drawings, but you have to figure out how to get the manpower yourself. Don't even think about taking away the manpower and technology. Everyone is in short supply of such people now. For the technology you want, just contact Yi Jibo in Yanzhou. There should be all the technology and equipment you need."
Yanzhou Agricultural Grain is currently the largest processing base. Although there was a thunderstorm before, it is still the largest grain processing base in the Central Plains. Yanzhou has all the oil and grain processing equipment Zhou Yu wants. .
But Chen Xi spent more than ten years building these equipment, technical personnel, and upstream and downstream supporting facilities bit by bit. If he wants to have sex for free, it’s a dream!
"In other words, I'm still not sure what to do." Zhou Yu said calmly.
Zhou Yu really doesn’t understand these things. In fact, the person who knows most about these things in Jiangdong is actually Zhang Zhao. Originally, if this kind of thing really came up at this time, he should have called Zhang Zhao over. However, Zhou Yu glanced at it and his reaction was so slow that it was like a network cable. Zhang Zhao was delayed for half a minute, it was useless to call him here!
"Although Jingchu's situation is not very good, the best thing about Jingchu is that at least he has a complete team. Whatever he wants to do, he can still do it if he squeezes in more people." Chen Xi also glanced at Zhang Zhao and said To be honest, Chen Xi still remembered what happened back then. It was really a slap in the face.
"Build slowly. The Central Plains can still give you enough support these days, but in the future, the Central Plains will also have to eat meat, and you will have to pay it back sooner or later." Chen Xi looked away from Zhang Zhao, then looked at Zhou Yu and warned, now look The tenderness is only because the time for settlement has not yet come. When the group of people around them develops in the future, it will be the time for the Central Plains to eat meat.
If it doesn’t suck the blood of vassal states, what kind of suzerain state is that?
"You guys are not eating barbecue and are talking about things. It's hard for you." Liu Bei got away from the generals and found that Chen Xi and others were gathered together to talk about business. It was a bit strange, so he brought him a piece of barbecue. The very delicious fish fillet was placed between the three of them.
“Mr.
"The fish fillet is good." Li You commented, "The meat and dishes this time are all extremely delicious. Not only is it a matter of the ingredients used, but the craftsmanship is also very good."
"That's natural. Chef Chen, with his own team, cooks there. How could it not be delicious? You are looking down on Zichuan. Most of the world's delicacies come from Zichuan's kitchen. ." Liu Bei said with a smile, "Of course the ingredients are really delicious."
As he spoke, Liu Bei looked at Zhou Yu and said, "Gong Jin, how far has your preservation technology advanced?"
In the past, Liu Bei didn't pay much attention to this kind of thing, but with the continuous advancement of the country's administrative capabilities and Liu Bei's continuous inspections in the countryside, he gradually realized that this seemingly unimportant technology was extremely important to this country. Significance.
"It still requires a large warehouse. The cost of miniaturization of etching technology is too high. The technology that can be popularized at present still needs supporting warehouses." Zhou Yu did not hide it. Their Jingchu preservation technology was definitely the most advanced in the entire Han Dynasty. , but even so, it is impossible to make the cabinet as big as it is. Of course, it is not impossible to make it so big, but the cost is too high.
"The preservation technology used in the logistics park before came from Jingchu. I have always been paying attention to this aspect." Chen Xi said without looking back, "If you want to complete the vegetable basket plan, logistics technology and preservation technology are indispensable. , so there is always exploration going on here.”
"The current problem actually lies in shrinkage. After all, the mainstream etching here actually comes from the reconstruction of Xuanxiang's military formation, and the deletion of large-scale military formations also requires
It requires considerable technical strength and cannot be made too small. "Zhou Yu also explained from the side, "If you want to be very small, you must either have people like us face to face, or increase the cost."
In fact, both increase costs, but one increases human resource costs and the other increases technical resource costs. There is not much difference.
"Actually, there are also some local logistics problems in Southeast Asia. Even if the area doesn't look big, things are more than a thousand miles away. If we go deeper, there will also be some things to consider there." Zhou Yu felt a little tired. said.
"You could live without these before, but now that you have them, it's impossible to go back." Chen Xi said calmly. After enjoying the beauty and recording it, human beings will naturally pursue this kind of beauty.
Chen Xi knows very well that everything he is doing now will fall apart sooner or later in the future, but as long as there are enough records to prove that he existed, there will continue to be people who want to do it again, and as long as society develops, as long as It has been achieved before, and there are still people trying one after another, so it is only a matter of time before it is achieved again.
What's more important is that in such successive attempts, many mistakes will be made and a lot of experience will be accumulated. Chen Xi's current level, even Chen Xi himself knows, is actually not very scientific.
But as long as there is such an era in reality, no matter whether it is not very scientific or not, as long as there are practical ways to achieve it, then sooner or later there will be people with lofty ideals who will reach this point, and what Chen Xi wants is to have a future someday after he falls. One day, someone reached this level again after eating everything.
At that time, those who arrive will truly understand, not like they do now.
"Why should we give back good things? Of course we have to keep using them." Liu Bei interjected from the side. "At least everyone I met has the consciousness to protect this era and the current life, and the more ordinary people , the more you cherish this life now.”
"Everything I had before I was born is taken for granted." Chen Xi suddenly said this to Liu Bei. Liu Bei hadn't reacted yet, but Li You had already understood.
"The reason why they cherish it is that they have witnessed the chaotic era, so they know what preciousness is. But those who were born in this era and have been born like this will not have such thoughts." Li You said with a hint of caution. He sighed.
"Yes, people live in the circles they weave, so for some people, what they think is the worst is just that, and the real worst is two different things." Chen Xi described calmly, When ordinary people scolded them for not eating minced meat, it was actually the emperor's golden pole, because the two parties had probably never stood together.
The so-called top-down unity is sometimes an illusion in itself. It means that a certain upper-level and lower-level people are standing together, rather than all upper-level and lower-level people are standing together. Some illusions are generated by both parties at the same time, but both parties think that the other party understands. That’s all.
"So the Yuanfeng Dynasty probably only lasted twenty years, because after the twenty years of Yuanfeng, the ordinary people of that generation who witnessed the turmoil in the Ling Emperor Dynasty and cannibalism in Jian'an will basically become history." Chen Xi was somewhat sad. He said, "The people in the future will not be as driven as they are now. Their thoughts are completely different from now."
This is why Chen Xi actively wants to finish everything that can be done in Yuanfeng's 20th year, because if he doesn't do it at this time, he will no longer be willing to do it in the future.
The reasons why adults in this era are willing to fight for the country are very clear. The country has really given them a reason to fight, allowing them to move from turmoil to prosperity, and from being unable to eat enough to eat to having food and meat. Eat, so the country conscripts them, and they are willing to die in return.
It is precisely because of this mentality that these people are willing to follow a recruitment document and travel thousands of miles to expand their territory. Even if they know that they may die in battle, they are willing to fight for the country.
But when this generation gets older, this mentality will basically dissipate. The desire to make contributions may still be there, but that is completely different from the current universal belief in serving the country, and it has already disappeared in terms of quantity. There is a huge gap.
