Chapter 2350: Rent Has a Way to Fight for the World
Bi Gou, who had been watching for a while, put down his telescope and said, "Xiao Yi, steam engines are better than tractors."
Li Yi glanced at him: "It saves fuel, right? Is coal worthless?"
"Do you know what I'm thinking?" Bi Gou smiled.
"As long as you speak, Lao Bi, I will naturally think about money."
Li Yi gave Bi Gou a look of contempt, "I don't know you yet?"
"Old man Yiyi, did you make money by renting the equipment?" Bi Gou said.
"Losing money, the cost of investment is higher than the money earned." Li Yi refused to pay taxes.
"Is it because the technology cost is high?" Bi Gou asked.
"Technology is free, and the cost of materials does not include labor costs." Li Yi was determined not to be fooled.
"Then what other technologies do you have that can be used in the tertiary industry of the Household Department?" Bi Gou refused to suffer a loss.
"Hahaha" Li Longji laughed.
Others laughed along, whether it was funny or not, it was just right to laugh.
Li Yi laughed twice and said with a sense of accomplishment: "Steam engines and internal combustion engines are the things of Datang."
He never thought that the things he exchanged would be of much use to Datang, except for the hospital.
Only what Datang can produce with its technology is the key to truly promoting the development of Datang society.
Villagers from other villages below were whispering to each other, mainly the village leader, who came to watch on behalf of the villagers.
Depending on the equipment, the rental fee for a day is between 100 and 200 yuan.
The average rent is one yuan per acre of land. If you don't have cattle, renting a car is cheaper than renting cattle.
Renting an ox costs at least two yuan a day. You have to help the plow yourself and feed it. You are not allowed to tire yourself to death.
Plowing two acres of land a day, paying one acre and paying for fodder, I have no time to spare.
During the busy farming season, a good cow cannot be rented for two cents.
This price is calculated based on the life span of the cow, the price of buying a calf, how many years the cow can work normally, and how much it can be sold for when it dies of old age.
It is basically three to four times the rent. According to the final overall value of the calf Wu Min bought and raised, the rent is two yuan a day, which is about three to four times.
There is no fixed exact value for cattle. Just like pigs, you can buy them for eight yuan per catty this year and forty yuan per catty half a year later.
Looking at it this way, the price given by Lijiazhuangzi happened to be stuck on the rent of large livestock.
It is best to rent steam engines and diesel engines on flat land, on terraced and sloping fields, and on cattle.
If you want to grow your own vegetables on a hillside, take a hoe and go dig it yourself!
"This is the Tang Dynasty!" Li Yi waved his fist: "There are so many beauties in the country, and countless heroes are competing to bend their waists."
"Only through the desperate battles of border officers and soldiers can we have a warm countryside for the common people." Li Longji sighed with emotion.
He knew that in a few years more steam and internal combustion engines would appear.
Then the road was built vigorously, and the cars drove over, transporting goods and people to the next place quickly.
"Gangrou, this thing is convenient for building roads and transporting earth and rocks."
Zhang Jiuling remembered that when he was building roads, he could build longer and wider roads with this car.
"Brother Jiu Ling was wrong. This thing can dig mountains. If you dig a little, it won't fit in one wheelbarrow, but it can hold several wheelbarrows."
Li Yi smiled and said, do you think steam engines can only be used for traction? It can transform into an excavator.
When the Panama Canal was being built, there were a bunch of steam engine excavators.
That’s why I don’t want to dig that canal. It’s too difficult. There are so many equipments. Why don’t I use them in Datang first?
Just as I said at the time that I would change the Martian environment to allow humans to live in it.
Scientists in our own country say that it will be unrealistic for a long time and they have the ability to change Mars. Why not fix the earth first?
"Can you still dig soil?" Zhang Jiuling felt amazing.
"Wait for me for a month. I will give you the drawings first, and the workshop will make one. All the technologies are available."
Li Yi guarantees that I will let you see that Zhuangzi has recruited so many craftsmen to study, so we are not just spending money blindly.
Those craftsmen who work very hard are studying seriously with the old craftsmen, and they forget to eat and sleep.
If it were not for institutional restrictions, they would wish they could sleep only six hours a day and lose their wives and children.
Zhang Jiuling was startled for a moment, then suddenly had tears in his eyes: "Is there really such a good thing?"
"Don't be like this, I can't stand it, yes, it really is!"
Li Yi knew that Zhang Jiuling wanted to build roads and built many roads. He became addicted to road building.
"No, the wind is strong, it's blowing." Zhang Jiuling raised his sleeves.
Li Yi quickly handed over a piece of paper. Don't wipe it with your sleeve. If you get keratitis after wiping it, I will have to take care of you again.
"Dongzhu Li, if it takes more than half a day, the land will be plowed."
Ma Cunzheng was sensible and quickly changed the subject.
He was actually just as surprised. What kind of thing would need to be dug up to load several cars?
He didn't know it yet, but it was a small excavator. It was replaced by the big excavator from Li Yi's time, and several carriages were filled at once.
Of course, the one is hydraulic, not lever.
"Okay! Then change places and continue working." Li Yi didn't care when it would end.
"Dr. Li, are you having dinner in the village at noon?"
Ma Jin made another request to stay and eat in the village, otherwise they would go to Zuixianju nearby.
"Third brother?" Li Yi looked at Li Longji, do you want to eat?
"Sure! UU Reading www.uukanshu.net We will just eat whatever we usually eat in the village. There is no need to make any special arrangements. No cows are allowed to be killed."
Li Longji agreed to have fun with him!
As for the food, I guarantee it is not a daily meal in the village, and there will be people watching. What if you poison it?
"I'll arrange it right away." Ma Jin turned and ran downstairs.
He shouted downstairs: "Your Majesty and Li Dongzhu are having dinner in our village today. Remember not to talk nonsense and don't call him Your Majesty, otherwise Li Dongzhu will be embarrassed."
The people upstairs: "..."
"It has a future, it rhymes." Li Yi commented.
"Hahaha" Li Longji laughed again. He lived happily and was so happy every day in Lijiazhuangzi.
"Xiao Yi, why are you so positive?" Bi Gou laughed for a while and patted Li Yi on the shoulder.
"I remember someone said two sentences, which touched me deeply. The past is as light as clear, and it is light; the years of sorrow and joy are as clear as a mirror, and it is quiet!"
Li Yi said while writing on the guardrail with his hand dipped in tea.
"Good sentence, it has painting and Zen." Wang Wei was excited when he saw it, which was in line with his style.
"Not pastoral enough." Meng Haoran curled his lips. He liked the pastoral style, and this one gave people a feeling of not being quiet enough.
"Is brother Yi light or quiet?" Li Longji frowned.
"It's just a sudden feeling, that's not it. I want to fight. I care about the people of the Tang Dynasty. I can't be depressed or indifferent.
There is no such thing as a peaceful life. It's just that someone is carrying the burden for you. I want to be the one who carries the burden.
The grass and trees are only one autumn, and life is only one lifetime. You should always leave something behind."
Li Yi shook his head. He didn't dare to think of retiring from the world. His position didn't allow him to do that.
Many people cooperated with him and pushed him forward.
And everyone worked hard. The old men were busy every day and had no time to engage in political struggles.
