Chapter 388 Grain and Wine Brewing Trade, the Industrialization of the Great Song Dynasty Officially Begins (Subscribe)
The geographical location of Yuhang Town is very superior. In addition to having a natural deep-water port like Modu Port, there are also dense rivers and roads leading to the mainland!

The natural deep-water port and well-developed rivers can accommodate super-large ships.

This makes the trade mode of Yuhang Town extremely convenient.

With such a geographical advantage, Chen Mu naturally had to make good use of it.

At noon one day in Yuhang Town, more than ten grain transport ships sailed into the port.

woo~
On the cargo ship, the crew manually cranked the mechanical buzzer.

The sound of buzzing reminds passing guests to avoid these huge grain ships.

The loud sound made people stare sideways.

Such a huge fleet was something they had never seen in their lives.

Perhaps even more amazed if they knew what was inside these ships!
This is the first time these people have seen such a huge ship for grain trade across the sea.

When the ship docked, countless people in Yuhang Town talked about it!

"Is that the grain sold by the Spring Breeze Caravan?"

"My God, I thought that a ship with a maximum of several thousand materials can hold at least [-] materials, right?"

"It's definitely more than that. These transport ships are also strange. They are actually made of steel?"

"It's amazing!"

The common people talked a lot, and so did the officials and gentry of the Song court.

Watching the ships dock, these people have not changed.

But when the workers hired by the Spring Breeze Caravan began to unload bags of grain, the officials and gentry in Yuhang Town completely let go of their vigilance.

"The Spring Breeze Caravan is really powerful. These iron ships can actually sail in the sea. Maybe what they said is true. There is really a kingdom in the Far West!"

"I'm still worried about their weapons. It doesn't matter if these people are super skilled in martial arts. I didn't expect there to be fertile land and enough people to grow food!"

"Being able to produce this kind of warship, we must not provoke it in the future."

"This time the winery must do a good job. I feel that this business will definitely make us a lot of money."

The sea trade of the Song Dynasty was very good in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Can't say it's busy though.

The maritime trade of the Song Dynasty ended with the shame of Jingkang, and only began to prosper after the Southern Song Dynasty established sea routes after the Northern Song Dynasty fell.

These people lamented that the ship was huge, like a scene that covered the sky and the sun, which was naturally normal.

Seeing a large amount of grain being transported down, the county magistrate said with emotion: "In the future, we must not provoke people, and we must deepen cooperation."

A few months ago, when these river-crossing dragons arrived in Yuhang, the county magistrate and a group of officials naturally rejected them.

They even wanted to mobilize the police to capture these daring people.

But...they are too powerful.

And...they gave too much!

Song Zhong, the county magistrate, will never forget the strength of the opponent.

He couldn't forget that horrible scene.

It was a scorching noon, and people from the Spring Breeze Caravan brought elegant things to visit them.Then they were invited to play again, during which they performed a few kung fu.

One of them was firing projectiles at several donkeys.

Then he watched helplessly as the donkey's head exploded into blood clots, and then a big hole was punched in the huge brick.

Then, these people hope that Song Zhong will reach some cooperation with them.

Song Zhong still had a little bottom line at that time, so naturally he was not allowed to be a kneeler easily.

It's a pity that these people are completely different from ordinary gangsters!
It doesn't matter if you have super force, and it doesn't matter if you have a powerful mysterious firearm.

This group of people is actually very good at killing people's hearts!

One of Song Zhong's henchmen, a local gentry, was acted out a few days later as his wife and children were separated and his family was ruined.

This is established as a model.

For Song Ting to cooperate with them, it is natural to use special means.

Knowing that Song Zhong has the support of gentry minions under his command, after investigation and evidence collection, it was found that this family of gentry did all kinds of evil, so they directly slaughtered chickens to scare monkeys.

These words of rejecting the underpants of the people in the Spring Breeze Caravan spread throughout Yuhang Town in just a few days, and then quickly spread throughout the surrounding counties.

Subsequently, the litigator who filed the complaint was dispatched directly.They cleverly used the hearts of the people to completely stink the gentry, and then their families were ruined.

Hard things can't be done, soft things can't be worn down, and this group of people from the Spring Breeze Caravan even showed evidence from Song Zhong and others in the village of mermaid meat.

Mama batch!
I am not afraid of bad guys all over the world, but I am afraid that bad guys have martial arts and return culture.

These people are totally inappropriate!

Since he couldn't beat or scold him, he could only lie flat.

These Song court officials could only anesthetize themselves in their hearts-they gave too much.

When the unhappiness is over, the administration of officials will be smooth.

When officials are well governed, government affairs are naturally smooth.

After finishing the management of officials in Yuhang Town in the Northern Song Dynasty, Ju Chengyan used business to enrich the people and made a statement about strengthening the country, and then used these things to convince these Confucian scholars and bureaucrats in the Song court.

Although these officials occasionally reject super-active commercial responses, the other party's murderous knives are too sharp.

It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

The method proposed by Ju Chengyan is very beneficial to the Song Dynasty and them, so they can't find a way to refuse it.

The Song Dynasty attached great importance to scholar-bureaucrats, and the officials of this dynasty were a special group.

Countless people want to be part of this system.

The official hat of the system, even the actors of later generations love it very much, let alone these elites!
After Ju Chengyan used means to suppress them, he then used carrots to impress these officials.

With tears in their eyes, the officials of Yuhang Town agreed with Ju Chengyan's idea of ​​win-win cooperation, improving political achievements, and letting the people live and work in peace and contentment!

The thoughts in the head are unified, and the path will be easy.

The local officials in Yuhang Town turned a blind eye to these commercial activities and turned a blind eye!

A few months later, a surprise came!

It's a matter of course.

The Song Dynasty had a performance appraisal system, and they generally conducted statistics once a year.

After Ju Chengyan arrived in Yuhang Town, he started various business activities.

They enriched commerce and raised the income of residents.

The yamen of Yuhang Town found that their pockets suddenly bulged.

These incomes are not obtained through clever schemes and exorbitant taxes, but are collected through reasonable business planning.

What is even more surprising is that the income of most people has more than doubled directly.

There are more public packages, and the income of the county government has also increased.

Win-win for all parties, perfect governance!
The commercial activities of these non-governmental spontaneous organizations have directly opened up a new world.

The officials of Yuhang Town also gradually accepted Ju Chengyan's imaginative words from the bottom of their hearts.

Lying down to make money, not shabby!

This time, I saw the big ship transporting grain to Yuhang Town with my own eyes. Naturally, there were various purposes.

In addition to peace of mind, witnessing the strength of the Spring Breeze Caravan, and participating in the business plan of the Spring Breeze Caravan - a one-stop plan for the brewery and the brewing industry!

Tobacco, alcohol, arms, etc. are very stable and profitable industries in the modern world.

The tobacco industry is the most profitable industry.

It is very simple to promote this, but it cannot quickly form a scale, so this will not be mentioned for the time being!
Arms are also available, but this requires building trust.The arms trade takes time.

Chen Mu here is holding a hammer and a sickle to establish industrialization and then enlighten wisdom.Therefore, they should use soft knives as much as possible to activate the psychology of the people of the Song Dynasty.

Reduce violence as much as possible.

The brewing industry has naturally become a crowbar to break the industrialization of the Song Dynasty.

Brewing wine is very simple, only food is needed.

There are many ancient methods of brewing wine, and there are also many delicious wines.However, the workshop-style winemaking method has less output and catches up with industrial winemaking.

When Chen Mu entertained the officials of Yuhang Town with Wuliangye, Fenjiu, Maotai and other drinks, as well as fresh water wine such as fruit wine, he immediately conquered their tricky mouths.

At that time, Ju Chengyan said that he would build a brewery and not use Song Ting's grain.When talking about making everyone rich together, the officials in Yuhang Town went through a long period of psychological struggle.

But after seeing the written agreement that Ju Chengyan presented, they decided to experiment first.

Watching the grain disembark and then building a brewery is where the planning begins.

However, these Song Dynasty officials did not know the appearance of wine at this moment, and Song Ting had already entered the countdown.

At this moment, they are still complacent and think that Song Ting's laws are very powerful, which makes these people afraid.

indeed!

Private individuals in the Northern Song Dynasty were unable to make wine.

If you want to operate wine, you need to buy it from the official winery of Song Ting.It can only be resold after purchase or can be rented from an official workshop to make wine.

There were three main forms of wine administration in the Northern Song Dynasty: monopoly of wine, monopoly of music and tax wine.

The Northern Song Dynasty implemented three different policies for different places.

The Sanjing area implements the monopoly of distiller's yeast.

Liquor monopoly is implemented in the state city.

Places below the county level either pay taxes or monopolize wine.

Among them, the practice of wine monopoly is that the wine shop is owned by the government, and the production materials, production costs, and production raw materials are settled by the government.

The wine households rent wineries from the government to organize production, and the brewed wine is underwritten by the government.Tax wine means that drinkers bring their own rice to the public hotel, and then sell it to the hotel, and then they can drink after giving brewing money and share money.

Song Ting's productivity was low, and when there was no chemical fertilizer, the grain output was very low.

Food is the foundation of a country, and farmers without food will definitely make trouble.

The imperial court knew that if there was no restriction on wine making, it would definitely hurt farmers, and the practice of public management would curb land mergers and prevent the use of precious grains for wine making.

However, there are policies above and countermeasures below.

Song Ting's private brewing industry has always been very prosperous, and it has been banned repeatedly.

All of this is naturally related to interests!

When Ju Chengyan proposed to build a winery, the officials in Yuhang Town felt that this was an impossible business.

But Ju Chengyan patted his head and said that he would not use Song Ting's grain to make wine, but would only buy grain from abroad.

They need to be replaced with items like silk, porcelain, etc.

Ju Chengyan said that silk and porcelain are very popular abroad, and they can get high profits.

Only then did the officials let down their guard.

Anyway, there are fixed indicators for the elements of wine making from grain in the Song Dynasty, and it doesn't matter at all if wine is made from foreign grain.

Sometimes, when things are changed from another angle, you will find that things are beautiful.

The eyes of the officials in Yuhang Town have been opened, and the angle has been changed, so things will naturally be easier to handle!

After going to war today, they came to the pier and saw so many real grains disembarking, they made up their minds.

The size of the distillery in Yuhang Town needs to be expanded a hundredfold, and at least 500 workers must be recruited.

By the way, they still need a special person to be in charge, and they need to ask the Spring Breeze Caravan for advanced brewing technology.

Although the people of the Spring Breeze Caravan often speak in a wild way, but they keep their promises!
After watching the grain unloading, the county magistrate of Yuhang Town immediately took a group of officials to the Spring Breeze Caravan.

"Mr. Ju, I have agreed to the cooperation in the construction of the new winery. What about our... contract?"

Hearing the news, Ju Chengyan smiled.

He took out a document: "Please take a look at this contract!"

The contract is naturally no problem.

Yuhang Town will use silk, cloth, and poor quality porcelain to purchase grain in large quantities, and then transport it to the winery to make fine wine.

The sales of both parties are divided into two and eight.

The Yuhang Town government will share [-]% of the profits, and the Spring Breeze Caravan will share two profits, each half yearly.

It's fair!

soon~
Regarding this business cooperation, the two parties signed a formal contract under the principles of equality, mutual assistance, fairness and justice.

There are probably several contracts!
Yuhang Town will purchase porcelain, cloth, and silk.Then buy bulk food.

The grain will be used for brewing wine in the winery.

The brewery will be built in Yuhang Town, the Spring Breeze Caravan will provide construction funds, and Yuhang Town will provide construction land.

The Spring Breeze Caravan will provide comprehensive construction technical support, provide advanced construction equipment, and teach the locals how to make delicious drinks.

In return, they will receive a 15-year share right.

During construction and brewing, the Spring Breeze Caravan will provide worker funding and provide gainful employment.

After this condition was stated by Ju Chengyan, it actually experienced some twists and turns.

After Ju Chengyan raised the issue of workers' funds, the county magistrate of Yuhang Town implicitly said that corvee construction could be levied to help everyone save money.

Ju Chengyan naturally refused on the spot.

It is a matter of principle for them not to hurt the people of Song Dynasty unless it is absolutely necessary.

If Song Ting hurts, then forget it!

This stalwart refusal made the officials of Yuhang Town feel ashamed.

In short, the winery was built like this.

Infrastructure is the basis for facilitating business activities.

With a good infrastructure, more rapid commercial activities and convenient commercial production can be carried out.

Building a winery is not an easy task.

In fact, Song Zhong thought that the Spring Breeze Caravan was just building a winery, but they found that these people had more than one thing.

Do you need cement to build a winery?

Where is the cement?
Naturally, it will be produced!

Indigenous method of making cement to arrange.

The overall physical fitness of the people in the fairy sword world is very good, and they are twice as strong as those in the main world.

Therefore, the development potential of ordinary people in the world of fairy sword is very great.

People are strong and horses are strong, so the natural construction work is fast.

After the local cement construction is completed, the road will be built again.

Because the winery is only five kilometers away from the port, the concrete road was costly.

Fortunately, Yuhang Town didn't need to pay for it.

When the road was built, it instantly became a scenic spot in Yuhang Town.Countless people came here to see the newly built road.

After the road is repaired, the factory needs to be built.

Steel transported from Wanwan, cement made in Yuhang Town, and gravel quarried from nearby mountains are all infrastructure materials.

Yuhang Town was completely busy.

When building a factory, you can't just have one brewery, can you?
Is the matching crock container also needed?
Chen Mu directly provides free technical guidance on how to mass-produce glass bottles.

If you want to produce glass bottles, do you need some energy to drive it?

Do you know what a steam engine is?

Do you know what hydroelectric power is?
Steam engine - backward product!
Come on, let me show you what hydroelectric power is.

"Do you want money?"

"No money, give it for free! But we need 20 years of management rights, and you can also participate in the share. We need a [-]-[-] split."

"it is good!"

Then, the officials in Yuhang Town saw something that subverted people's cognition-hydraulic generators!

In addition to hydroelectric generators, they also provide combustion generators, which naturally burn thermal coal.

Along with cement factories, glass factories, cork factories, they also build chemical factories, yeast factories...

In short, the supporting production plants of the winery were all established by them.

The officials in Yuhang Town finally found that the number of factories established and the number of workers recruited exceeded their imagination.

Originally they only wanted to recruit 500 people, but in the end they needed at least 3000 people for the supporting factories and workers, which was caused by downsizing.

During the construction of the factory, they also expressed their personal opinions on the fact that so many people entered the factory and no one cultivated the land.

Then Chen Mu directly gave them hundreds of cultivators that could be pulled by livestock.

The officials of Yuhang Town tested it themselves.

When they discovered that these devices could be used by one person as dozens of people, they supported the expansion of the factory on the spot!

Factories that make people love and hate each other have been established one by one in the small place of Yuhang Town.

The new class that destroyed the Northern Song Dynasty has also begun to breed!
