Tamluo garrison mansion, Tamluo prefecture city.
In addition, what attracts young new immigrants and Korean naturalized people to stop and watch are the acrobatics and hundreds of operas in the small square of Yaqian Street! In this small square, where big figures usually hold meetings and give speeches, and announce policies, a group of young immigrants with experience in performing arts are currently using the light cast by the kerosene street lamps above their heads, bare arms, shouting at the top of their voices, and performing hard Show your own performance!
Although, in the eyes of professionals, their performances are just children playing house, childish and boring, they cannot stand the new immigrants, and the naturalized Koreans have never seen much of the world! Therefore, as waves of cheers continued to sound, there were a lot of broken silver and copper coins on the ground in front of the performance stall. The former were in the Chiyang Army, or in the Central Government with positions in Tamna Prefecture. Those thrown by low-level officials, while the latter were thrown by ordinary new immigrants or naturalized people from Korea! At present, Chiyang is still in its initial stage. All the officials and people are still very simple and pragmatic. They have watched other people's performances and also know how to reward them. Unlike some readers and audiences in later generations, who have watched other people's performances. Yes, in this video, I only know how to scold you, but I don’t know how to reward you!
After visiting the night market, watching sideshows and a variety of operas, we walked further to Beicheng District, where Chiyang’s new immigrants live together and where craftsmen gather! Compared with ordinary shops that are lined with flags and flags and extremely noisy, this place is much quieter and peaceful. The big leader Kang Lin opens the treasure box and the civilian technology unlocked by the experience point lottery is basically realized here through various craftsmen setting up workshops. For example, textile workshops, paper-making workshops, wine-making workshops, food workshops, vehicle workshops, lacquerware workshops, porcelain workshops, and leather-making workshops are all concentrated here for production and processing!
It can be said that with the existence of these workshops, Chiyang has the ability to make his own blood! At least, such as cloth, paper, white wine, rice wine, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, spices, wheelbarrows, two-wheeled cars, wheel hubs, raw lacquer, lacquerware, bowls, tea sets, leather robes and boots, etc., as long as the raw materials are sufficient. Energy sources are continuously produced from here for daily use by the military and civilians on Tamna Island! From now on, it will be extremely difficult for external forces to block Chiyang's economy. Chiyang's handicraft industry, after a period of development, may even have overcapacity. By then, a large number of goods will be able to Through sea shipping, it was sold back to Goryeo and even the Ming Dynasty, thus completely breaking the external economic constraints on Chiyang!
"Master, I heard from outsiders that we, Chiyang, have won several great victories on the land of Goryeo this time. Not only have we defeated thousands of fake rebels who were working for us, we have even defeated the invincible Jurchens. Banya suffered a big loss at the hands of our guard. I don’t know what those vicious barbarians will look like after they are defeated. I guess he won’t be much better! Hahaha, you and other beasts are also like this. It’s really satisfying. , it’s really satisfying..."
In the papermaking workshop directly under the prefecture's workshop, an apprentice worker stopped stirring the pulp and began to wipe the sweat from his face with the towel wrapped around his neck. Although it was late autumn and early winter, the weather outside was extremely cold, but The heat waves generated when bamboo and wood raw materials are cooked day and night in the workshop make this guy feel like he is living in a scorching summer! So, while the shopkeeper and the supervisors were not paying attention, this guy started to take the opportunity to be lazy. Opposite him, the master who was responsible for mixing the pulp did not say much after seeing this, he just snorted coldly from his nose, and then It was a reaction to what this guy said!
"Lu Er, when will it be the turn of us little people to care about military and national affairs? If you have this spare time, you might as well stir the pulp evenly! It's up to the shopkeeper, if the quality of this batch of paper is still not up to the quality of the Korean bamboo paper The standard is that we should look good! He is a man of his word, so it would be better for us to be more careful in what we do next!"
"Master, what's wrong with having time to chat? As long as we keep working, that old poisonous creature will see us. What can he do to us! We can't produce high-quality paper at the moment, so he should be more You should look for your own faults, what kind of hero do you think you are if you always take it out on me!"
Faced with his master's cautiousness, the apprentice named Lu Er was somewhat disapproving! At present, there are many monks in Chiyang, and there are many vacant positions. Don't work here by yourself. At worst, it will be better to move to another place. Why bother to work lowly here and lose your face in vain! However, he is young and energetic and does not know how to advance or retreat when doing things.
But his master is not a stupid and stupid man! How could he, who was getting three taels of silver and dozens of kilograms of rice as salary every month, be willing to fool around with this stupid young man and offend his immediate boss for nothing! Seeing the disdainful look on his face, the master in charge of the mixing process just smiled innocently, turned around and ignored his cheap apprentice!
Chop the bamboo and float it on the pond, boil it over the fire, beat the mortar, put the materials into the curtain, cover the curtain and press the paper, and bake it in the fire... Regardless of the young apprentice Du Er who is diverging his thoughts, or the wise master mixer, we will Turn your attention back to the papermaking assembly line in full swing! To be honest, the craftsmanship of Chiyang Papermaking Workshop is actually no different from that of its counterparts in other countries or regions in this era. The only difference is that they have plug-ins that can change the quality of paper and catch up with similar products!
To be precise, it is their boss who has such an incredible plug-in! When Kang Lin opened a treasure chest, he pulled out a box of calcium carbonate powder. He originally thought that this thing was not suitable for eating or drinking, but now Chi Yang was a useless waste! But when luck came, not even the Himalayas could stop him. When he opened the treasure chest another time, he actually obtained technical drawings that could improve traditional papermaking! As a result, the two powerful combinations immediately produced unimaginable effects! Chiyang's craftsmen added a secret weapon, calcium carbonate powder, to the papermaking process, and their craftsmanship suddenly surpassed Ming Dynasty rice paper and Korean bamboo paper. If it weren't for the craftsmen who worked hard, the apprentices would have insufficient experience, and the scrap rate would remain high! I'm afraid Chiyang's self-made paper will completely replace the former's position in the high-end market soon! After all, as long as there is a scholar who likes to write and write, who would not want to use paper that is whiter, more flexible, and less likely to be damaged! Of course, the prerequisite is that the price of the latter cannot be much higher than the former. Otherwise, for economic reasons, these pedantic literati may still choose the Ming Dynasty rice paper or Korean bamboo paper they are used to!
In addition, there is another reason to promote the upgrade of Chiyang's papermaking technology, that is, their guardian adults need more toilet paper, more white, flexible, and unbreakable toilet paper! Yes, you read that right. In order to keep his butt away from those terrible bamboo chips, wood chips, and earthen garbage, the noble leader of Chiyang and the conqueror of Tamluo, Boss Kanglinkang, not only contributed to the papermaking technology He improved the drawings, invested in calcium carbonate powder technology, and also took out 200 taels of silver from his own treasury to invest in the company! And the papermaking workshop located in Beicheng District did not disappoint him. After thoroughly studying the technical drawings in his hands and going through repeated trials, the former finally produced some toilet paper in small batches for the use of the nobles in the guard house!
We’ve finished talking about the new money-making tool, papermaking! The following ones worth mentioning are the textile industry, tanning industry, and ceramics industry in Chiyang! As the saying goes, basic necessities, food, clothing, housing, and transportation include clothes, shoes, and pots and pans! And these things are closely related to the textile industry, tanning industry, and ceramics industry. Without the technical support of the latter, Chiyang would not even be able to get a piece of cloth, a leather robe, a pair of boots, or even a bowl or a basin. Not even a single spoon can be produced by oneself, they all have to be purchased from Goryeo or Ming Dynasty!
In other words, as long as Chiyang's textile workshops, tanning workshops, and ceramic workshops can overcome their respective technical difficulties, those products that are closely related to the military and civilians can soon be mass-produced with the help of machinery! Does Chiyang have technical difficulties? The answer is no! After Kang Lin became the leader, the key to overcoming technical difficulties for various departments and workshops in Chiyang changed from repeated research and demonstration to opening treasure chests and drawing experience points! As long as you are lucky enough, even the most advanced production technology can be obtained through drawings or experience books. The prerequisite is that you are lucky enough!
In addition, the technology that needs to be unlocked should not be too advanced for the era, such as textile machinery. Although Conlin has obtained the manufacturing blueprints of the Jenny Spinning Machine and the Mule Machine by opening treasure boxes, drawing large prizes, and synthesizing fragments. , but the era is only the colonial era, and has not been upgraded to the more advanced fortress era! Therefore, it is impossible to create the latter! In the same way, the tanning drum and tanning chemicals in the tanning workshop have been unlocked, but they still cannot be put into actual production!
Today's Chiyang textile industry still uses relatively primitive foot-operated spinning wheels, and the tanning industry still uses plant ash and lime to hand-tan the leather, which greatly hinders the
The industrial development of Chiyang! Therefore, as soon as Kang Lin leads the expeditionary force to victory, Chiyang will undergo a second era upgrade. They will upgrade the colonial era they are currently in into a more powerful fortress era, and then unlock more and stronger weapons. Production technology, and finally fully understand these advanced technologies, and then completely upgrade your own productivity!
As for the porcelain industry, just like the textile industry and tanning industry, it also needs Kang Lin to come back and upgrade the era in order to produce the newly unlocked tin-glazed porcelain and bone china in small batches! The former is a colorful ceramic that was introduced to Italy from the Middle East via Mallorca in southern Spain, while the latter was made from Chinese porcelain by Schienhaus and some chemists in Saxony, Germany, from the end of the 17th century to the beginning of the 18th century. After some important experimental research work, it was discovered that feldspar powder could be used as a flux instead of glass powder, and finally hard porcelain similar to Chinese porcelain was successfully produced!
