Chapter 2577: Relocation and Making Money on the Airship
Kelp has a high yield and is planted and harvested once every few months. The kelp roots are made into dried products.
Then they are sent to various parts of the Tang Dynasty for the people to eat. The price is cheap. People are told that those with goiter cannot eat it. Those who don't have it can eat half a small plate a day or every two days.
Li Yi couldn't make iodized salt for the people of the Tang Dynasty, so he had to do this.
He bought some kelp to extract iodine, and also bought some kelp and agar. They extracted agar together, which has a wide range of uses. Hospitals need it and can also make jelly.
Like agar, kelp is artificially cultivated. After drying, it is soaked, and the people have one more dish at home, especially in the northern region in winter.
There is agar on the table in front of me, which is crunchy when chewed.
"Since the cooking technology was spread, the people in Haizhou have obviously increased their income."
Qi Wang Li Fan was happy to eat and talked about the people's livelihood in Haizhou.
"It's related to eating." Li Chengqi smiled.
The people of Haizhou are responsible for collecting fish and fishing themselves. They raise a lot of pigs, ducks and chickens.
Those who work for others and deliver goods belong to the big families.
Those who work for themselves, deliver goods are their own, fish bones are ground into powder, intestines and other things are fed to poultry and pigs.
Selling feed and poultry eggs and meat, plus convenient transportation, every family built a new house.
So Li Yi didn't spend money on this donkey that everyone eats.
When the people heard that he wanted to eat, they pooled their money to buy him a donkey that was always in a bad mood and didn't work, and killed it and gave it to the Yulin Flying Cavalry to take back to the ship.
"I heard that the big families coming from Haizhou are trying to recruit workers from outside?"
Li Dan asked, he heard from the little robot, and he always chatted with the little robot on weekdays.
Li Yi responded: "The locals saw how to make money, organized themselves to work, and grabbed the orders from the fishing boats."
He had foreseen this, otherwise why did he let the big families come to make money?
When they showed their strength, the people saw, oh! I can do it too, why should I work for you?
The big families couldn't recruit people, so they had to transfer from other places.
Those who have land at home want people to come alone, but they don't come.
For those who don't have land, this is easy to deal with. As long as the wages are high enough, they can work.
The employment problem of some people in the Tang Dynasty was solved, and the profits of the big families were squeezed.
They dared not raise prices easily. If they dared to raise prices, Li Yi would dare to lower the price and even directly order the Tang Dynasty Navy to cut off the stock.
The big families could only buy boats and find people to go out to sea to fish, but fishing is a technical job. If the boat is small, it can't go to the open sea. If the boat is large, it will lose money if it can't catch enough fish.
"It's not easy for the big families to live!" Li Longji smiled and sighed. The pit that Brother Yi dug two years ago was finally used.
Others laughed along. It was interesting to see Li Yi calculating people.
...
After staying on the cruise ship for five days, everyone changed to a yacht to return to Li's manor in Luoyang.
Everyone was busy, and every detail had to be considered.
They knew that everyone would leave in July and go out to travel. Remote control is always not as good as making a strategy now.
The people in the places where the flood was to be released began to harvest winter wheat and take it to their new homes after it was harvested.
Put away the household items, livestock, poultry, grain, etc., and come back to work together to demolish the houses.
Anyway, it will be flooded, so take down what can be used and don't let the flood wash it away.
No one is allowed to go to the location of Quemen in Mianchi. There are some villagers there. Historically, there were garrisons there, and more than 20,000 people died.
All the people in Shangyang Palace next to Luoshui were also evacuated, but sandbags were piled up around.
The people of Chanshui and Gushui wanted to transport the good soil in the fields, but they were stopped. How much can you transport? It's better to do other work with this time, and buy fertilizer after the water recedes.
The people heard that it made sense, and the government officials were smart, so they didn't transport it.
The houses in Xingdaofang, Chang'an, were demolished long ago, and not a single brick was left. The people ran to Lijiazhuangzi to live temporarily. There was no place else, or it was too far away.
Wireless signal transmission monitoring equipment was arranged in every place, and the battery could be replaced at any time. Just put something in the relay station, and the fixed-wing drone would provide hierarchical relay in the sky at that time.
Other people along the riverside also prepared, and those who needed to pile up sandbags were filled first, and things were moved to higher places.
The river that was entering the water network began to block the mouth, allowing the water to flow down quickly and empty the water network.
Open it at the critical moment, and the water network can help to distribute water.
No old man or old woman said that if they wanted to die, they would die in the house. If they did not obey Li Dongzhu's order, their descendants would probably be unlucky.
Li Dongzhu was acting against the will of heaven, who dared to go against him?
Those who were preparing to replant were fermenting fertilizer and making plant ash, and also collecting lime to kill insects.
The monks and Taoists were scared. If there was really a flood, how terrifying would Li Yi be? Real Buddha, real immortal.
The river that people divided into rivers still flowed, and in summer the water was cooler than other places.
The contents of the Buddhist scriptures were all hearsay, and no one saw it with their own eyes.
If the flood really happened on June 21st, Li Yi would say who was the demon in the future, without evidence, and the people would kill him directly.
Or maybe there is some money in the temple, give it to him?
Li Yi in Lijiazhuangzi continued to treat patients and teach, and his life was quite fulfilling.
The craftsmen worked hard to fractionate petroleum, extracting kerosene, gasoline, diesel and liquefied gas...
The airships traveled all day, helping the people transport goods and earning the difference.
The same things, the people could earn more by selling them to the airships than by selling them elsewhere. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net
More and more fruits are coming on the market. People can only sell them in the surrounding areas after picking them. For example, if lychees are not dried, they will go bad if shipped out.
The airship flies over, gives a high price, loads the fruits and flies to places where there are no lychees. When they arrive, they will add 300% to the price and sell them.
When people see that it is so cheap, they will buy it!
Of course, they cannot buy lychees from Guangdong and Guangxi and transport them to Sichuan and Fujian. That would be like sending coal from Pingdingshan, Henan to Shanxi to sell.
"If you eat too many lychees, you will get angry." Yao Chong has eaten 30 lychees and has no intention of stopping.
The lychees from Guangzhou were telegraphed in advance. Local people picked lychees by lights in the middle of the night. As soon as they finished picking, the airship arrived.
Twenty tons of fresh lychees were loaded on the airship and delivered to Lijiazhuangzi in Luoyang at noon.
The people there continued to pick them. The price was 50% higher than last year, and they would collect as much as they picked.
The airships continued to transport, and the farthest place was Longyou Road. Princess Jincheng's two airships actually transported to the Red and White Palaces.
All the governorates of the Andong Protectorate controlled by the Tang Dynasty, including the Xiongjin Governorate, ate it all.
The local lychees are sold at 1.20 yuan per pound, and the airships charge about 2 yuan.
It depends on the distance to other places. The relatively close ones are 8 yuan per pound, and the farther ones are 10 yuan per pound.
Some people have never eaten lychees in their lives, let alone such fresh ones. They buy half a pound to try, and then sell their local specialties to the airships, and add the same price. Isn’t this a profit?
Everyone doesn’t think they have lost money, otherwise your things will rot and you can’t exchange them for lychees. Do you eat all the lychees yourself? They will rot just the same, and there is nothing else to exchange.
Ordinary people think it is convenient, and generals from all over the country see another meaning.
There is no problem with logistics during the war. If there is a rebellion, the bomb will fall, and then the airship will definitely cover the sky.
