Chapter Seven, Factory Manager Cao Huachun

There are proposals for raising pigs, proposals for raising poultry, proposals for planting potatoes, proposals for planting corn, and so on.

Moreover, the charges are clearly stated, colluding with Wei Ni and being part of the eunuch faction

At this time, the Ming Dynasty's total population, including various hidden households and others, is estimated to be close to 200 million.

Having made a decision, Li Yunze found a processing factory online and ordered a batch of armor and weapons made from modern materials.

Having been directly promoted from a position in the Shuntian Prefecture's retirement home to one of the three chief eunuchs, Cao Huachun at this moment is undoubtedly loyal to Li Yunze

In the era of the Ming Dynasty, Cao Huachun, who was far away in Shuntian Prefecture, received the imperial edict summoning him back to the capital. He immediately packed his belongings and set off northward on an official boat.

Zhu Youjiao's biological mother passed away early in the palace intrigues of the inner court. Having lacked maternal love since childhood, Zhu Youjiao harbored feelings for the Ke family that were almost maternal in nature

Over there, Zhang Yan has already begun to speak, "Your Majesty, you have rectified the court and eliminated treacherous officials, bringing joy to the world. However, the Ke family in the palace has been incessantly crying and causing a disturbance these days. How should this be handled?"

Ten ships will certainly not be sufficient, and there also needs to be supporting labor-intensive factories for frozen processing and canning.

Please rest assured, Your Majesty

Cao Huachun, stepping out of the imperial study, straightened his back and said, "It is time for you to witness the methods of the miscellaneous school."

For all of these, Li Yunze shook his head in disapproval

I have seen Your Majesty

By the time he returns from having a meal, the omnipotent netizens have already provided him with numerous solutions.

Regarding taking action against them, Li Yunze felt no burden or pressure whatsoever

What you need to do now is to investigate and confiscate a group of traitors from Wei, bringing to light all their corrupt dealings.

The simplest way to make money at present is to transport gold here for sale. It is straightforward and also very efficient

"The Eastern Depot is entrusted to you; do your job well and do not let me down." Li Yunze did not change his mind and still appointed Cao Huachun to the position of the Eastern Depot Commander

Almost all poultry crops have been mentioned

Similarly, once these crops experience a large-scale outbreak of pests and diseases, it is almost powerless to manage them

The quantity is not large, mainly serving the purpose of preliminary inspection hetushucom .com

Even if Li Yunze can buy a fertilizer factory and send it over, who will be the workers

Piracy is rampant on the seas of East Asia. Initially, it was manageable to fish in the Bohai Bay, but in the future, when venturing south, it will be necessary to be equipped with escort naval forces

After the initial pleasantries, everyone took their respective seats

The emotionally stirred Cao Huachun pounded his chest and declared, "I will spare no effort, not even a single penny!"

What he truly needs is a simple and efficient source of food that does not require excessive additional effort

"Lift your head." Li Yunze assessed the renowned Master Cao, feeling somewhat disappointed; he was rather ordinary and not as handsome as Zhen Zidan.

The Ke family partnered with Wei Zhongxian, jointly controlling both the inner and outer parts of the Forbidden City

Modern agriculture is an entire vast system

Sitting in the chair of the leather goods company, Li Yunze lit a cigarette

Moreover, there are many items that Li wishes to purchase, and it is impossible to allocate all the funds for buying food

Moreover, Li Yunze also emanated thoughts, associating them with the vast ocean of the Ming Dynasty, where there were many catches from the modern world that are sold at high prices.

The master is indeed a master, effortlessly presenting a large array of data, which consists of the catch quantities from various sea areas over different time periods

Upon thinking of this, she revealed a smile reminiscent of the treacherous Cao, fueled by her chaotic thoughts and anger

When in a position of overwhelming power, even Zhang Yan had to retreat and show deference in her presence

Li Yunze may be able to purchase technology and goods with money, but he cannot buy the corresponding production capacity

The text provided does not contain any meaningful content to translate.

The so-called "Three Great Eunuchs" refers to the Chief Eunuch of the Imperial Secretariat, the Eunuch in charge of the Imperial Secretariat, and the Supervisor Eunuch of the Eastern Depot.

As for the preservation and transportation of marine fish, it suffices to purchase fishery products processing plants or canning factories

He certainly does not wish to pass away prematurely before realizing his ambitions

Indeed, in years of severe drought, rainfall is scarce, but this does not mean that there are no clouds in the sky

Those who possess gold are either wealthy or noble

I am deeply grateful for Your Majesty's grace! I would not hesitate to go through fire and water for Your Majesty!" The excited Cao Huachun bowed deeply, and with his determined posture, it seemed as if he wanted to smash the gold bricks.

In the next ten rainfalls, one first prize will be lost

A somewhat sharp announcement sounded from outside: "Her Majesty the Empress Dowager and - Tu - Shu, Her Majesty the Empress has arrived - - - "

373 kilograms of gold, when converted according to the current international gold price and exchange rate, amounts to a substantial sum, exceeding a small target.

Looking at the empress in front of him, Li Yunze's first thought was, "Truly one of the five great beauties."

Li Yunze, sipping tea, was contemplating how to acquire more gold and expand his sources of wealth

In the eunuch profession, it can be considered the pinnacle of one's career

Furthermore, Li Yunze does not wish to create trouble for his own safety

Desalination of seawater? The investment is too large, and the technical threshold is too high

This is indeed a large cauldron. Given Wei Zhongxian's power over the past few years and the flattery from all corners of the world, when this large cauldron comes down, essentially no one is completely innocent.

Without a doubt, he has never seen so much money in his life until now

Additionally, second-hand fishing boats are somewhat cheaper and are available in stock. However, the quantity is limited, and the condition of the boats cannot be guaranteed

The historical records describe her as having a graceful and well-proportioned figure, a face resembling that of Guanyin, eyes like autumn waves, and lips akin to red cherries

Artificial rainfall is essentially artificial precipitation, which involves the use of catalysts that directly act on cloud layers to induce rainfall

The gold of the Ming Dynasty is not supplied without limits; it is finite.

Compared to the benefits of alleviating drought conditions, this expenditure can be considered negligible

The premise of seeking benefits for the people of the Ming Dynasty is to first ensure their own protection

A 500-ton fishing vessel, upon returning from a trip at sea, brings back 200 tons of catch, which is simply effortless

With a comfortable exhale of smoke rings, Li Yunze's gaze fell upon the screen displaying "The Tale of Erchen".

Although the venerable Nine Thousand has passed away, his nephew is still alive, and there are many factions both inside and outside the palace that can be slowly cultivated.

The problem is that purchasing such items would attract significant trouble and attention, which is something he needs to avoid at all costs in the modern world

At this moment, another expert put forward a suggestion that caught Li Yunze's attention.

Only when she mentioned it did Li Yunze suddenly recall that there was such a woman in the palace

Once an animal disease breaks out, the consequences will be devastating

This response is more extensive this time

Li Yunze sincerely expressed his gratitude, saying, "I am absolutely committed to not letting down the support of the people of Daming."

As for other businesses, they require connections and time, so they can be set aside for the time being

Having temporarily resolved this important issue, a relaxed Li Yunze began to consider how to increase food supplies for the people of the Ming Dynasty

Li Yunze, who immediately praised his own clever mind, hurriedly began to browse the prices of fishing boats

There is no doubt about the appearance; it is absolutely impressive

He is well aware that if a batch of modern firearms were purchased, they would undoubtedly sweep through the Ming Dynasty space.

The downfall of the Ming Dynasty and the sinking of the divine land are responsibilities that these wealthy and powerful individuals must bear at least eighty percent of.

For Cao Huachun, he has a grudge against Wei Zhongxian, and now is a perfect opportunity for personal revenge.

What is there to ask about this? Just form a fishing fleet and go out to sea to catch fish

The use of artificial rainfall can effectively increase precipitation, which is a lifesaving rain for fields suffering from severe drought.

With money in hand, Li Yunze began to consider what to purchase for the Ming Dynasty

In the world of the Ming Dynasty, a prolonged drought lasting twenty years is about to unfold. The ongoing drought will lead to poor harvests, and the lack of food will result in a series of catastrophic consequences.

Li Yunze did not hesitate and immediately ordered two sets in the name of the company

In the spirit of collective brainstorming, Li Yunze once again posted a request for assistance from the omnipotent netizens

Extracting groundwater? A cup of water is like a drop in the bucket, it's not enough

Deep in thought, Li Yunze simply opened the computer on his desk and logged into the forum to post a question titled "How to Simply and Effectively Alleviate Drought Conditions"

The common people of the Ming Dynasty are still capable of performing simple physical labor

The modern world's firearms far exceed the power, range, and accuracy of the firearms of the Ming Dynasty

Compared to the modern world of overfishing, the seas during the Ming Dynasty were truly an almost limitless source of food

The common people of the Ming Dynasty did not possess such rare items as gold; at most, they had some copper coins in their hands

The fishing volumes that easily reach tens of thousands of tons made Li Yunze's eyes shine with excitement

Li Yunze immediately began to check the prices of the corresponding equipment

Li Yunze lifted the teacup and sipped the tribute tea, which costs at least several tens of thousands per pound in later generations. "Also, those who have previously worked in the inner treasury should be thoroughly investigated and scrutinized."

The price for a complete set of system equipment is not expensive; if aircraft are not used and only ground launch is employed, it can be acquired for a few million.

Raising pigs and poultry requires a substantial amount of feed for their nourishment

Purchasing food directly is not an issue, but the population base of the Ming Dynasty is significant, with hundreds of millions of citizens requiring food supplies for decades. How much money would this require?

Li Yunze waved his hand casually and said, "She has been an accomplice to the tiger for many years; she should have been sent on her way along with Wei Zhongxian. However, considering the face of my imperial brother, it is sufficient to expel her from the palace."

I have met the Empress's sister-in-law

The catalyst used for each artificial rainfall launch is approximately around 500,000.

Kesh, the wet nurse of Emperor Tianqi Zhu Youjiao

Li Yunze's common sense tells him that the most effective way to cope with drought is to have a large amount of water

Several proposals were put forward in succession, but unfortunately, none were suitable

Moreover, Li Yunze does not intend to acquire the ground monitoring system, radar, or similar equipment, as there would be no one to use them even if they were obtained, and the price would be significantly lower.

The South-to-North Water Diversion Project? The scale of the project is too large; I truly cannot manage it

After all is said and done, it still comes down to insufficient funds

Looking at the names one after another above, he coughed and said, "Raiding a family is indeed a technical task"

Including freight insurance and other costs, a price of 6,500,000 per vessel can definitely be secured

Cao Huachun was now anxious; he directly abandoned the plan to travel by official boat along the canal and, accompanied by his trusted aides, rode on horseback, making his way through the dust and haste straight to the capital.

After completing all the formalities and upon the arrival of the funds, Li Yunze gazed at the string of numbers in his account, feeling somewhat dazed.

A fishing vessel weighing 500 tons has an approximate cost of around 6 million

Now, regarding the matter...

With just this one order, more than half of the company's small target account was immediately spent

Cao Huachun, whose face was marked by the hardships of life, did not even bother to change his dirty clothes before directly seeking an audience with the Emperor

Li Yunze has been busy with various matters during this period and has not gone to the back at all. This is the first time he has seen the Empress and his wife since his ascension to the throne

For a young woman or a bride, having a silver ornament would be equivalent to the adornments used during the time of marriage.

How to acquire more gold? Of course, it is by plundering.

Just like the single-headed and double-headed abalone, which are nearly unseen in the modern world, they were abundant in the era of the Ming Dynasty.

If this falls into the hands of someone with ill intentions, their safety will be placed in great jeopardy

After more than ten days of rapid travel, I finally returned to the capital at the fastest speed

As for planting potatoes, corn, and the like, these crops are indeed high-yield, but they require a substantial amount of water and fertilizers to increase production

Zhang Yan is indeed a great beauty who has passed through eight challenges, selected from among countless beautiful women, and is recorded in historical texts as one of the five great beauties.

Moreover, it is crucial to note that it is quite difficult for the Ming Dynasty to achieve integrated farming as seen in the modern world

The servant Cao Huachun requests an audience with His Majesty

In the drought-stricken Ming Dynasty, where did the abundant water come from to cultivate these crops, not to mention the fertilizers and other inputs

What can truly be considered expensive is the catalyst

The quantity and thickness are still insufficient to reach the level of rainfall

The large number of people who need to eat every day means that the impact of food shortages is catastrophic

Moreover, during the Ming Dynasty, there was no closed fishing season; fishing could be carried out continuously throughout the year

Compared to the South-to-North Water Diversion Project and seawater desalination, the cost of artificial rainfall is relatively low, and its application is also quite convenient

Setting aside those impractical suggestions, what truly attracts Li Yunze's attention is the artificial rainfall proposed by a renowned expert

Rather than purchasing large quantities of feed to raise poultry, it is more cost-effective to directly import grain in bulk

Li Yunze secretly felt regret; if he had replaced Chongzhen instead of Tianqi...

In the Bohai Bay, even whales have become a rampant disaster

Li Yunze did not hesitate and directly placed an order for ten 500-ton trawlers at a shipyard

After capturing them over there, bringing them back for sale can greatly alleviate financial pressure

There is no way around it; after all, he is called Cao Huachun, the esteemed Cao Gonggong

He had just crossed the river when he received the notification that the Grand Secretary had fallen from power and that the Emperor had appointed him as the new Superintendent of the Eastern Depot

These are the hard-earned resources of the common people of the Ming Dynasty, and Li Yunze's moral bottom line is clearly established; he would absolutely never squander them recklessly.
