Chapter 577
After Song Shidao asked his followers to go to the bank to exchange crystal coins, he continued to browse the shelves of the supply and marketing cooperative.
Grain, spices, fruits, vegetables, and meat all reflect the strong productivity advantage of the Human Revolutionary Union at this time. Although Song Shidao doesn't understand the principles of economics, he at least knows something about government-run factories.
After leaving the food area, the brother and sister entered the equipment area again.
This place was originally separate from the food area just now, and there are even different warehouses, entrances and exits, but it has not been completely renovated yet.
But there is a lot of traffic here.
According to the different materials of the products, it is divided into ceramics area, glass area, stoneware area, hardware area, woodware area, fabric area, fertilizer area, sundries area.
The first area is still glass, but there are more glass products here. Obviously, the glass area in the food area is just a temporary promotion.
Large jars that can be used to pickle pickles, sauerkraut, and brew sauce and vinegar wine; large jars that can store rice and noodles, and are equipped with special small glass jars for drying lime.
After passing the glass area, it is the ceramic area.
There are not many new ideas in this area. After all, the ceramic products of the Human Revolutionary Union are mainly practical, and do not pursue ornamental features.
Moreover, there is a fierce competition between ceramics and glass, and the product positioning of the two obviously overlaps.
In terms of price, ceramics are significantly higher than glass. After all, ceramics need to be transformed in a kiln, and there is a lot of uncertainty.
Glass, on the other hand, can be poured, die-cast, and blown.
After the Zhoushan Glass Factory obtained the coke from the Keelung Coal Mine Company, its production scale was expanded by more than six times, which is easier than expanding the production of ceramics.
The mediocre Zhoushan Ceramics Factory is now an embarrassing role.
Consumers are not fools. If they don’t buy cheap, colorful, and versatile glass, they will buy ceramics with similar functions, which is probably too much money.
If glass is easy to break, then ceramics are also not resistant to falling.
However, Longsha did not give up the ceramics factory. After all, ceramics are not only used for daily necessities, but also have many uses in the chemical industry, mechanical industry, and electrical industry.
For example, high-hardness ceramic grinding wheels are the core products of ceramic factories.
Can be used in many metal cutting and grinding processes.
It's just that these products generally don't directly enter the public's field of vision, so Song Shidao feels that the ceramic products of the Human Revolutionary Union are very ordinary.
As for the stoneware and woodware areas, these two industries are also traditional products.
For example, stone tools include stone mills, stone troughs, stone mortars, and stone thresholds; wooden tools include lacquerware, bamboo products, wooden waterwheels, threshing machines, wind sifters, poles, and bamboo baskets.
In the hardware district.
Song Shidao stopped for a while.
Because the things here really make people stop involuntarily.
Weapons, a large number of cold weapons.
Some are marked with kitchen knives, kitchen knives, scissors, and hatchets, while others are blatantly marked with weapons, including ring head knives, eight-faced Han swords, spearheads, straight knives, dogleg knives, and javelin heads.
Except for the lack of armor, shields, and firearms, a row of weapons here can arm hundreds of people.
If it weren't for the trading company started by the Human Revolutionary Union, Song Shidao would have doubted the other party's motives.
But when he thought of the ferocious firearms, he couldn't help shaking his head bitterly. No matter how sharp the sword was, it could still block the firearms.
Picking up a straight knife, he flicked the blade lightly with his fingers, and there was a soft noise immediately, and he couldn't help sighing softly: "It's a pity that a good knife was born at an untimely time!"
"Brother, buy it if you like it! This knife is not expensive."
It's really not expensive. A mass-produced straight knife costs about 3,500 crystal coins. However, to buy a sword, you must provide an ID card and be registered on the register. He is a citizen of the Human Revolutionary Union and is not eligible to buy it.
Walked around.
"It's hard to imagine that the Human Revolutionary Union has so many products." Song Shidao couldn't help sighing.
Song Yuzhi, who had picked a large basket, naturally knew that the prices in the RPLU were cheap.
Lingnan is suppressed by the Song Dynasty, and there is grain import from the Indochina Peninsula, so the overall price is not bad.
Before the brothers and sisters and Song Lu went to Luoyang, they saw what troubled times were like along the way, and the price of food in some areas even soared to 20,000 yuan per bucket of rice.
It was hard for Song Shidao and Song Yuzhi to imagine how ordinary local people could survive.
It's no wonder that as soon as the ship of the Human Revolutionary League docked, there were a large number of refugees who could not survive, and they took the initiative to follow the Human Revolutionary League. .
This situation made Song Shidao fall into deep reflection.
Why is there no major disaster in the world, even if the grain production in various places is affected by the war, it will not completely disappear, but why is the grain price still soaring?
"Brother, please borrow it."
The clear baritone voice awakened Song Shidao who was in deep thought.
He turned around embarrassingly and apologized to the other party: "Sorry, I was thinking about something just now, brother please."
"Fang Dayong in Keelung, I don't think the two of you are citizens of our territory, are they the resident members of the Lingnan Song Clan?"
A trace of surprise flashed in Song Shidao's eyes, and he asked with a smile, "Why do you see that we are not citizens of the alliance? We are members of the Song Clan?"
"Brother, you don't dress like ordinary people, and you are generous with your purchases. The citizens of our alliance are not like this, and the only possibility in the territory is the Song Clan's office in Wuzhou City." Fang Dayong analyzed.
"Then why not a relative of the governor's mansion?" Song Shidao asked back.
Fang Dayong shook his head and smiled, "Brother, the governor and ministers don't wear fancy clothes, and they don't have any relatives."
Only then did Song Shidao suddenly realize: "So that's the case! Song Shidao in Xialingnan, this is my sister Yuzhi, Brother Fang, but they were sent by the Governor's Mansion?"
"No, I just came to the supply and marketing cooperative to purchase a batch of supplies, and I'm going to take them there to take up the post." Fang Dayong explained.
"Oh? Brother Fang?" Song Shidao became interested.
Fang Da clasped his fists and replied, "Haha, it's the director of the health center in Kunshan County. I have to go to the hospital to get a batch of medicine. Let's part now. There will be a later date."
How could Song Shidao, who planned to observe the internal situation of the Human Revolutionary Union, let go of this opportunity and asked quickly: "Brother Fang, I want to go to Kunshan to have a look, can I go with you?"
"As long as you can get a pass and don't involve confidentiality, there is no big problem."
"Okay! I'm going to apply for a pass right away."
Seeing Song Shidao who was about to go to the traffic department to apply for a pass, Fang Dayong hurriedly shouted: "Brother Song, I'm leaving at noon. If you can apply for a pass, you can wait for me at the south gate."
"it is good."
In a hurry, Song Shidao took his sister back to Linjiang Restaurant, and immediately ran to apply for a pass. The traffic department had already been greeted by the black-clothed guard, and he did not make things difficult for him.
It's half past one.
At the gate of the south city, Song Shidao, who had been waiting under the willow tree for almost an hour, thought he had missed the time, and secretly felt a little depressed.
At this moment, Fang Dayong, who was pulling the carriage, came out from the city gate.
"Huh! Brother Fang! Brother Fang! The teacher is nagging."
Fang Dayong shook his head: "You have to bring dry food and crystal coins yourself, I am not responsible for the cost of food and drink here."
"Brother Fang, don't worry, I've already prepared dry food and crystal coins." Song Shidao was not alone in this trip, and his identity was destined to be impossible to be alone.
A group of people came to the pier, a Yangtze River-class cement ship was already waiting for them here.
A large amount of supplies were transported on the ship, and Fang Dayong and eight clerks quickly carried the five-horse-drawn supplies onto the ship.
Song Shidao also helped move things, mainly because he felt that Fang Da used his expertise to do things by himself, so he actually wanted to move things by himself.
The boat is full of sails, and a few crew members with long poles are pushing the boat. When navigating the Grand Canal, you must use push rods, otherwise it is easy to collide with the front, rear, left, and right boats.
The cement ship is most afraid of collision, and the speed of sailing is not fast, only about 5 knots.
It was the first time Song Shidao saw this stone-like hull, and he was also very surprised: "Brother Fang, is this boat made of stone?"
"This is a cement boat. I don't know exactly how to build a boat." Fang Da replied half-truthfully.
"Cement?" Song Shidao scratched his head, but he didn't break the casserole to ask the end. After all, this may involve the secrets of the Human Revolutionary Union.
Song Shidao changed the topic: "Brother Fang, did you bring so many belongings with you when you took office? Wouldn't it be more convenient to buy them locally? I heard that there are supply and marketing cooperatives in every county."
"Brother Song doesn't know that not every supply and marketing cooperative has all the products. Some things have not been spread out, especially Kunshan is a newly liberated area. In addition, these things are not my personal, but the health center. "
"Speaking of which, I don't know what this clinic is in charge of?" Song Shidao asked curiously.
Fang Dayong explained: "The health center is responsible for epidemic prevention, treatment, and popularization of hygiene knowledge."
"It's a bit like a doctor."
"I just learned some hygiene knowledge, and I'm not yet qualified to become a professional doctor." Fang Dayong said while flipping through the books in his hand under the sunlight.
Song Shidao glanced at it and found that there were pictures of herbs on it: "Is this a medical book?"
"Yes! This is "The Barefoot Doctor (Revised Edition)" compiled by Minister Hao Jian, which is specially prepared for staff like me in health centers."
"The officials in your health center still have to study medicine, which is really not easy." Song Shidao said in a novel way.
Fang Dayong shook his head:
"It's not the health center, other departments should also have professional quality, for example, the engineering office should learn "civil engineering construction" and "architectural design"; You need to study "Economics", "Finance and Accounting" and so on."
Hearing this large list of books, Song Shidao had never heard of a single book, as if he had read fake books all his life: "Brother Fang, don't you officials here read the Four Books and Five Classics?"
"The Four Books and the Five Classics can cultivate one's sentiments, but it is not enough to govern the country. My People's Revolutionary League prevails in the way of science, and this is the right way in the world."
Fang Dayong was already a devout believer in science at this time, and was very obsessed with academics such as biology.
In the crash course, the moment he observed the tiny microorganisms through the microscope, he was attracted by that magical time.
Therefore, he chose the position of the health center, just to facilitate the study of microorganisms.
Song Shidao hurriedly asked: "Scientific way, these days I often hear people advance, but I don't know the secret, I don't know if Brother Fang is inconvenient, let me clear up my doubts."
"Have you ever watched Foundation Establishment?"
"I've seen it. Is this foundation building book the science path?"
Fang Dayong explained: "Yes, and no. Building the foundation and building the foundation is the book for getting started. This is part of the Kedaoge Wulu. There are 12 volumes in this set."
"So that's how it is. The next 11 volumes must be the secrets of the Human Revolutionary League, so I won't pry into them." Song Shidao looked suddenly enlightened.
Hearing this sentence, Fang Dayong shook his head with a half-smile: "The remaining 11 books are not secret. If you want to read them, I can lend them to you, but don't get caught up after reading them."
What? Song Shidao became more and more curious.
Fang Dayong is really not joking. The content of the twelve volumes of Kedaoge Wulu contains too much information and many subversive theories for traditional scholars of this era.
In the territory of the Human Revolutionary League, there are many scholars who went crazy after reading the book of Ke Daoge.
Especially those nerds and old stubborn who only read sage books, either doubt life, or cannot accept it, if no one guides them, they will easily go crazy.
Fang Dayong also completed the transformation of his thoughts through the practice in Hegu Village and combined with the contents of the book.
Ordinary scholars, or those traditional martial arts masters, who dare to read Ke Daoge Wulu casually, are Ning Daoqi reading Cihang Sword Manual-doubting life.
Moreover, the Kedaoge Wulu is even more terrifying than the Cihang Sword Dictionary, because the Cihang Sword Dictionary has not yet surpassed the times, but there are a lot of shocking theories in the Kedaoge Wulu.
Once this set of books is read, there are only three possibilities.
One is to become a believer in science and Taoism.
The second is the collapse of belief.
The third is to stick to one's own views.
Regardless of the possibility, the Human Revolutionary Federation doesn't care, so it didn't prohibit the outside world from obtaining this set of books, and even placed them at the gate of the Science Book Club for people to buy freely.
The problem is that this set of books is an interlocking whole. It seems that one of the books must be combined with the other parts to be fully understood.
The more you understand the content, the more you have to change the concept in your mind to the way of science.
For those traditional literati and traditional warriors, the more advanced their knowledge and strength, the more serious the backlash they may suffer.
For example, Song Shidao's uncle, Song Lu, was doubting his life right now.
Song Lu was the person in charge of the Song Clan's intelligence within the territory of the Human Revolutionary Union, so he naturally bought a set of Kodoge's records and studied them carefully.
Then he doubted life.
He even entered a state of being unable to stop, knowing that his state was not right, but he just couldn't restrain his inner curiosity.
And as the study progresses, he will constantly deny all his previous knowledge. This state is extremely dangerous, but there are also opportunities.
If he can re-establish his world view, then his strength can even go a step further, but there are very few people who can take this step.
After all, warriors in this world are too particular about beliefs and ideas, which leads to the stronger their strength, the more unwavering their beliefs.
If one is not good and makes one's belief collapse, then it's really over.
Or it is possible to become schizophrenic like Shi Zhixuan.
After thinking about it again and again, Song Shidao couldn't hold back his inner curiosity, and opened the second volume of Ke Daoge's bibliography.
Then he fell into it, as if there was an invisible hand pulling his mind.
Fang Dayong looked at the mesmerized Song Shidao, not too surprised, but looked at the barefoot doctor by himself.
He is very serious about his work, picking up a pencil from time to time, and extracting some of the medicines, prescriptions, or plans that may be used.
As the sun sets, the sailboat slowly berths beside the Kunshan Wharf on the glittering river.
At this time, Song Shidao only saw the third volume.
"Brother Song, we're here! Don't get too addicted so you don't lose control." Fang Dayong patted him on the shoulder to remind him.
Song Shidao, who woke up suddenly, had the illusion that he had passed away, and his eyes seemed to be puzzled:
who I am?
Why do I exist?
Where am I going?
After a while, he came back to his senses a little bit, clasped his fists with a wry smile and said:
"Brother Fang, this book of Daoge Objects really lives up to its reputation. Today, I know the mysteries of the world, the grandeur of the universe, and the order of nature."
"When you finish reading 12 volumes, you will understand a lot of things in the world, let's rest for the night first!" Fang Dayong said while moving the supplies on the cabin.
Song Shidao also took a few followers and joined the ranks of carrying.
In the afterglow of the setting sun, there are fireworks in the world of all living beings.
