oh!
Ying Zheng sat up, interested, and his previous disappointment was slightly restored.
Being able to make the fan fan forever sounds like a great idea.
After experiencing all kinds of miracles of Li Zhao, he no longer doubted Li Zhao's things, but looked at them and thought to himself, can he really do this?
He is willing to wait and see.
"It can also light up the lamp as if it were daylight, and there is no need for oil or fire sickle."
What?
Ying Zheng was shocked when he heard this and stood up from his high position with an exaggerated expression on his face.
The lamp can be lit without oil or fire sickle. How magical is this? It still shines as bright as day. Can it really be done like this?
Ying Zheng had mixed feelings.
If this could be done, when night falls, there would be no need to light a lamp, and there would be no need to worry about lack of eyesight, and the memorial could be reviewed at any time. How convenient this would be.
His interest became even stronger and he was extremely looking forward to it.
When Shang Xin saw His Majesty's surprise, he shouldn't have been disappointed, but he couldn't help but be tortured by that fantasy, and said in a daze: "Your Majesty, isn't this a bit outrageous? These two are nonsense, can you believe it?"
snort!
Ying Zheng was a little unhappy, because he was questioning Li Zhao.
"Whether it can be done or not, we'll see at that time. We can't make a conclusion now."
"Yes, yes!" Shang Xin agreed repeatedly, but did not dare to say any more.
Ying Zheng saw his dissatisfaction, but he was not angry. He said meaningfully: "Have you ever seen a weapon that can kill dozens of enemies with one shot? Have you ever seen a weapon with only 20,000 people with few casualties?" Can we still achieve the feat of annihilating 130,000 bandit troops?"
Shang Xin lowered his head. This is a known fact, and he dare not say that he has never seen it.
"If such a feat happened before, would you believe it? Of course not, but it actually happened. It all depends on Li Zhao's weapons. He can create such a weapon, but he can't create two things?"
Shang Xin was told that he had no intention of refuting and was speechless for a moment.
Suddenly, there was silence for several quarters of an hour. Ying Zheng thought of another question and asked quickly: "Did Li Zhao talk about the relationship between electricity and medical clinics?"
Although he was disappointed with whether electricity could live forever, the persistence in his heart still made him ask.
Shang Xin shook his head and said, "No, Li Zhao doesn't seem to care about the medical center."
"That kid, huh, doesn't care about the medical center? Just force him to care. You ask your people to give him a heads up and make sure he implements the establishment of the medical center as soon as possible."
"promise!"
Chang'an Township is busier than ever, with everyone responsible for their own affairs.
Li Zhao is no exception. He teaches common knowledge about electricity every day. Although the content is not much, it is difficult for students who have never been exposed to electricity to understand. However, Li Zhao is not in a hurry. He does not require students to be proficient, but at least they must understand How to maintain it.
In summer, the rice that is harvested twice a year is also harvesting season, which can irritate some people.
Since the suppression of business was banned, especially when they saw the huge profits made from various commodities in Chang'an Township, interested people became jealous and wanted a piece of the pie, and rice became the target of competition.
As a result, they planted less traditional food or abandoned it. When the rice harvest in Chang'an Township was completed, a large number of landowners came to the door and wanted to buy rice seeds in large quantities. Pure businessmen had no land, so they bought rice in large quantities. The event was unprecedented. .
In less than half a month, millions of stones of grain were sold out. It was so popular that even Li Zhao could not have imagined this year.
However, I am relieved that this situation will definitely happen due to the ban on suppressing business, but it is just a bit early at this moment.
Rice seeds were purchased in large quantities, which naturally triggered the sales of fertilizers. For a time, Chang'an Township became a commercial center, with an endless stream of businessmen and the faint shadow of powerful people.
Soon, someone discovered that lowly businessmen began to make money, and more businessmen appeared, selling products from Chang'an Township to surrounding areas, and began to make a lot of money.
This was a profitable situation, and more people took notice and started doing business. Gradually, the prototype of Great Qin's business was formed.
But it is just formed. Desire is becoming more prosperous than ever, but the current situation is not enough.
What is the basis of commercial prosperity? It is to solve the problem of food and clothing. Only by solving the problem of food and clothing and the people have surplus food can they seek development in other aspects and form purchasing power. Naturally, business will develop.
It can be said that commerce is circulation.
The emergence of hybrid rice, potatoes, corn and other high-yielding crops has provided conditions for solving the problem of food and clothing. At present, these major crops have not covered much area. When the coverage spreads further, it will be the day when food and clothing are solved, and then liberation will be achieved. Use a small amount of manpower.
This group of people can engage in handicraft workshop production, which is the prototype of industry.
However, it is not possible to make a big move towards industry as long as agriculture is still restricted, causing most of the people to be confined to the fields.
Currently, Daqin's production tools are relatively backward, and the same fields require the same manpower. Even if the yield per mu increases, it can only provide food and clothing, making them slightly wealthy, and they must basically rely on agriculture.
To break this limitation, the only way is to improve production tools, thereby freeing up more manpower.
This is how some countries developed in the past. After mechanization was achieved, machines replaced manpower. A large amount of land could be completed with only a small amount of manpower. The freed manpower could then be engaged in other industries, greatly changing the manpower structure and promoting the development of industry.
At this moment, Li Zhao's mind became active.
If we want to liberate the manpower for agriculture, we can only make production tools more advanced.
At present, farmers' farming methods are very simple. Some rely solely on manpower, and some already use oxen.
In this era, cattle were relatively expensive and not everyone had one, which naturally limited the liberation of manpower.
"If we raise a large number of cattle, will it speed up the release of manpower?"
Just thinking about it, Li Zhao quickly gave up the idea. Although cattle can help agricultural development and release manpower, they are relatively limited.
This has been witnessed in previous lives.
The only thing left to do now was to improve production tools. Tools such as rakes and rakes were also used more frequently in the previous life. Although these tools were somewhat improved compared to Great Qin, they could not quickly free up manpower and could only treat the symptoms rather than the root cause.
Then, the most effective production tool is machinery, and mechanization is implemented in Daqin.
Although this process is a bit far away, it is conceivable.
"Yes, you can use machinery. Although Daqin has not entered the steam engine era, I am currently developing electricity, so let's directly enter the second industrial revolution!"
"The electrical age is coming."
As long as electricity appears, it can be used in machinery. This is the best way to liberate manpower, and it is also the most effective way to promote agricultural development.
As long as agriculture develops, the rapid development of industry is not far away.
To manufacture machinery, it is necessary to improve iron smelting technology and craftsmanship. This is not a problem for him. He has the secrets of department stores. If he opens a manufacturing school, this problem can be easily solved.
So, he asked Ah Chao to select dozens of craftsmen and set aside an hour every day to study. Naturally, he was the one who taught the class. He bought many relevant secret books from the department store and learned them bit by bit in class. Teacher, these craftsmen have some basic skills, so they can accept it.
The manufacturing industry is in full swing, but business in Chang'an Township cannot be left behind.
Now Chang'an Township's business mainly faces Xianyang. Xianyang is always a place. If you want to become stronger and bigger, Xianyang is always a restriction. Therefore, Li Zhao has his own ideas.
