Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1808, Hot motorcycle 1
In Liaodong, with the start of spring plowing, the entire land of Liaodong has also become busy. On the wide fields, cultivators are plowing the deep black soil with billowing black smoke.

Li Damao was driving the latest cultivator, thinking about this year's plan while plowing the land.

"It is definitely necessary to grow less food. It is worthless and difficult to sell. It is almost enough to plant 1000 mu. Corn, sweet potatoes, onions, and potatoes can be grown more."

"Storage-resistant and easy to sell, the price is not bad, especially in winter, the demand in Jinjin area is very large, soybeans and peanuts can also be planted, and you don't need to take care of them. You can wait for the harvest after planting .”

"The breeding industry still needs to continue. The breeding time of cattle and sheep is relatively long, but the price is relatively expensive. It's just that a lot of forage is needed in winter, and this expense is relatively large."

"If you raise pigs, the price is cheaper, but it's easy to raise, and the food is mixed. Let's raise half and half."

Li Damao silently made a planting plan for this year in his heart. Daming's grain output has been increasing year after year. Grain prices have always been stable, and it is not easy to sell. The quality of the wheat in Liaodong is good, but it is better. If the wheat in other places is not as good Good sale.

Moreover, there are many large-scale flour mills here in Liaodong, which specialize in purchasing wheat for grinding and buying it in various parts of Daming, and even exporting it to all parts of the world. The price of grain in Liaodong is still acceptable.

But everyone is not very enthusiastic about growing grain now, because farming, growing vegetables, cash crops, etc. are more cost-effective than growing grain, and you have to earn more. In many cases, the income setting for one mu of land is several times different. Everyone is naturally more willing to grow some more profitable crops.

There is a big difference between the farmers in Liaodong now and the farmers in the past. The farmers in the past are desperately growing food to fill their stomachs. As for other things, they basically don’t think about it. They only plant in dry places. Some dishes or something.

Every household in Liaodong has a large amount of land, ranging from a few thousand acres to tens of thousands of acres. With such a large amount of land, there is simply not enough food to eat. What is more important is to consider the benefits that farming can bring. It is profitable, not simply growing food to fill the stomach.

Planting cash crops and engaging in aquaculture are already the norm for farmers in Liaodong.

"This internal combustion engine cultivator is really easy to use. It is much easier to use than the steam engine cultivator. The steam engine cultivator still needs to add firewood from time to time. This internal combustion engine can be used for a long time if it is filled with oil at one time."

"The strength is also great, the speed is faster, and it is very easy to use."

Then Li Damao began to admire this new type of cultivating machine. As the first batch of farmers who used the machine, he had a high degree of acceptance of the new machine.

As soon as the new cultivator came out, he bought one and then disposed of the old steam cultivator cheaply.

"I'm going to Tieling. The salt in the house is used up. There are too many livestock, and the salt is used up quickly."

After plowing the land, Li Damao came to his farm, looked around carefully, and decided to go to Tieling County to buy some supplies.

He took his own horse and put it on the four-wheeled carriage, and Li Damao walked slowly to Tieling County.

Four-wheeled carriages are now the most important means of transportation in Liaodong. Almost every household has them. The harvested food and crops must be transported by four-wheeled carriages. The cattle, sheep and pigs raised here also need to be sold by four-wheeled carts. , it can be said that this four-wheeled carriage is indispensable everywhere.

The four-wheeled carriage has the advantages of a four-wheeled carriage. In the Liaodong area of ​​the plain, its practicality is still very high. The only trouble is to take care of the horse. The horse needs to be raised and cared for in order to make the horse become obedient. ,docile.

Sitting in a four-wheeled carriage and walking slowly towards Tieling County, you can see busy figures on huge farmland along the way. Liaodong and Hexi are considered the most popular places for mechanized agriculture in the Ming Dynasty.

In these two places, there is a lot of arable land, a small population, and a large amount of land that has not been reclaimed. The use of mechanization is very common, because only mechanization can cultivate more land.

Relying on traditional farming methods, even if you are exhausted, it is impossible to cultivate such a large-scale field.

The farmers in these two places are rich and have a strong consumption ability and a high degree of acceptance of all kinds of machinery. Therefore, what can be seen in the fields is basically a piece of machinery.

"Clang~clang~"

When Li Damao was slowly driving the four-wheeled carriage towards Tieling, there were bursts of bells ringing behind him, and when he looked back, it was a bicycle, which was driving very fast, and caught up with Li. Big hair.

"Big Brother~"

Cycling on the post shouted loudly.

"Zhuzi, you're going to Tieling too?"

Li Damao looked at the pillar and asked.

"Yeah, the three-wheeled motorcycle I ordered has arrived, and I'm going to drive it out."

Zhu Zi quickly replied.

"three wheeled motorcycle?"

"You bought a three-wheeled motorcycle?"

When Li Damao heard this, he quickly asked, when he went to Tieling County last time, he saw someone selling this motorcycle, but he didn't know about it at that time. He heard that it cost nearly 200 taels of silver, which is very expensive.

"Yeah, if I can't afford a car, I bought a motorcycle and drove it first."

"Brother Li, you know a lot about machines, help me take a look."

"Okay, let's go and have a look together."

Li Damao was also very curious, wanting to see how this motorcycle is.

The two of them rode a bicycle and the other took a four-wheeled carriage, and the speed was not much different. It took half an hour to arrive in Tieling County, and then went straight to the motorcycle sales office.

The motorcycle sales office is very lively here, surrounded by a large number of people, three-wheeled motorcycles are neatly arranged, and a few two-wheeled motorcycles are parked.

"The last time I passed by, I didn't take a good look~"

"Is this motorcycle easy to use?"

Li Damao and Zhuzi looked at the motorcycles in front of them and said to others.

"Of course it's useful~"

"The speed of this motorcycle is very fast. It is far from being comparable to a bicycle. The internal combustion engine used here is the same as the internal combustion engine on a car. The power is strong."

"Did you see this big rear compartment? It's no problem at all to load a thousand or two catties casually."

Someone has already bought a three-wheeled motorcycle and said quickly.

"Is this thing useful with a four-wheeled carriage?"

Li Damao took a closer look. This is a new machine. If it uses an internal combustion engine, it might still work. The cultivator I bought just now works very well.

"Of course it is better than a four-wheeled carriage. It is easy to use a four-wheeled carriage to walk on the concrete floor, but if you go to a potholed place, the four-wheeled carriage is not very easy to use. The strength of the horse is also limited. If you fight too much, it will fight with you, and it will quit if you just give it to you."

"But this motorcycle is different. It is very powerful. Even in places without concrete roads, it is still very easy to use. Listen to me and buy one quickly. Our Liaodong men are not short of one or two hundred taels." silver."

"That's right, it's very easy to use. Someone in my village bought one, and it's still very useful whether it's for hauling goods or waiting for a ride."

Someone next to him also said.

"Come, come, take delivery, take delivery~"

"If you read your name, come and drive your motorcycle away."

At this time, the owner of the motorcycle shop also came out with a list and shouted: "Wang Sanmu~"

"Here, here~"

"Hurry up and sign the pledge, and then drive the car away."

"Okay~"

Accompanied by a name, a person excitedly stepped forward to sign, draw and press his fingerprints, and then drove his three-wheeled motorcycle in excitement and left in a burst of roar.

"Zhang Silin~"

"Come, come~"

"Your motorcycle is a two-wheeled motorcycle, can you drive it?"

"Can drive, can drive, can't drive, why should I buy it, I went back to Tianjin during the Chinese New Year, I learned from my brother in the city, otherwise I would buy a two-wheeled motorcycle for nothing."

"These three-wheeled motorcycles were sold in our Liaodong group. Nine out of ten vehicles are three-wheeled motorcycles."

"I bought a two-wheeled motorcycle for the convenience of returning to Tianjin in the future. This motorcycle is fast and very comfortable to drive. The three-wheeled motorcycle is much slower than the two-wheeled one."

"OK~"

Soon, under the gaze of everyone, Zhang Silin left on a two-wheeled motorcycle like a gust of wind.

"Is this too fast?"

"Are you almost catching up with a car worth a few thousand taels?"

"It's no wonder that the internal combustion engine used is the same as that of a car. The speed is really good. There is no way for a bicycle to compare."

"This motorcycle is really good for going a little farther, and the speed is fast enough!"

Everyone watched Zhang Silin leave in a hurry on a two-wheeled motorcycle, and they also felt that this speed was quite good, even if they were riding a horse, they couldn't compare to this motorcycle.

The motorcycles were quickly driven away one by one, and all the motorcycles in the store were sold out immediately.

"If you want to buy a motorcycle, you can come to me to pay first and wait for the goods to arrive before picking up the car. Now the production capacity is limited, first come, first served~"

The boss looked around at the melon-eating crowd watching the excitement, and said with a smile and cupped his hands.

Motorcycles are really easy to sell in Liaodong, especially the three-wheeled motorcycles, which have a large compartment that can hold heavy loads. They are powerful, fast, and very worry-free. They are extremely suitable for people in plain areas. The Liaodong area is suitable for farmers here.

"Brother Big Mao, let's go, go home~"

Zhu Zi also got his own three-wheeled motorcycle, put the bicycle in the back compartment, and rode on the three-wheeled motorcycle. The speed was so fast that Li Damao's four-wheeled carriage could not catch up at all.

"This thing is really useful~"

Li Damao couldn't help sighing, and silently wrote it down in his heart, and he was going to go home and get money to order one too.
