Chapter 186
The fifth update is given, an additional 3,800 yuan per 100 yuan! Brothers, the monthly tickets seem not very good recently. Everyone, wake up, I need you!
Several guys thought they had heard it wrong. Their dignified children, not to mention that their father and brother are both dukes, but even they are now all sixth-rank personal guards. Zhang Chao actually wanted to take them to collect manure and open a manure site?
These guys didn't want to hide their disdain at all.
Zhang Chao had expected the reaction to these guys. If the name of the manure farm is not good, just the name is not good, so let's change it to the fat farm.
"Then you don't want to join the gang, right? It doesn't matter, but don't regret it in the future." Zhang Chao said with a smile.
Zhang Chao's attitude made the four guys a little confused. They were so familiar with Zhang Chao. They knew very well that although Zhang Chao often had some strange ideas, they always had meat to eat with Zhang Chao.
"Sanlang, you're not kidding, you really want to open a feces?"
"Do you think I'm as idle as you? And you're still joking with you?"
Seeing Zhang Chao's attitude of being like you can't come, several guys were thrilled. Li Gan was the smartest among the four. Although he was far less than one-tenth of his brother Li Shiji, he was at least much better than Niu Jianhu. He smiled at Zhang Chao with a shy face and said, "Sanlang, tell us how to open this feces farm?"
Niu saw the tiger was still full of doubts, "Can you have a future when opening a manure farm?"
"It's hard to say whether there is a future, but there must be a future of money." Zhang Chao said, "Don't look disgusted. This manure is also a thing of the cycle of grains. The farmer harvested the manure and put it into the fields to fertilize the crops. Finally, the grain came to your dining table again. He didn't even see you but despise your food?"
"Stop talking, Sanlang, I'm a little disgusting!" Cheng Chumo covered his mouth.
"But what's the money to do with a manure farm?"
"Because I have a little trick of feces to turn into gold."
"Spot the feces into gold?" The four guys looked suspicious.
"To be precise, I have a prescription that can process manure into more convenient transportation and has stronger fertility. Using the manure manure processed by my prescription, the yield per mu can increase by 100 kilograms."
A few guys took a cold air, "Impossible."
Although Guanzhong is a plain, the yield per mu can reach only one or two stones per quarter. Those good land can reach two stones or more, but most lands only have more than one stone, and some barren slopes cannot even receive one stone. Even if they are used to cultivate for two years and three seasons, the average per mu of land is estimated to be about two stones.
Zhang Chao said that he could increase 100 kilograms per mu. If the output was not increased by 300 kilograms in two or three quarters, and the output was more than 150 kilograms a year, it would be more than one stone.
What kind of manure can have such miraculous effects?
"We haven't planted the land, don't lie to us."
"What do I lie to you? But it is not easy to increase the yield of 100 kilograms per mu. You need to have enough manure, which also costs money."
Several people were dissatisfied again, "What is the cost of feces?"
"Now, there is no need to pay for collecting manure in Chang'an City. However, when collecting manure, it has to be manually transported and exported, it has to be manual, and finally processing, it has to be manual, and finally transportation and sales, it has to be manual. In addition, manure needs to be processed, which cannot be used simply by collecting, and it needs to be fermented and dried. Some other ingredients have to be added, such as burning bean dregs cakes left over from oil pressing, such as crushed grass and straw, and other abandoned organs such as pigs, sheep, fish, etc. collected from slaughterhouses."
"A manure is still so complicated?"
"Ordinary manure has limited fertility, and promising manure is certainly not simple."
"It's just that we are going to get some slaughter in the yard."
"You don't want us to do it yourself. You can't smell the smell or see the dirty. You can charge money while sitting. What else do you think?"
What is most needed for opening a manure farm is manpower. In many aspects, there are actually a lot of people. The second thing you need is relationship. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, manure was widely used, and at that time, manure in every town was very competitive.
Zhang Chao could imagine that although the manure business doesn’t sound very good, as long as you have money to make, there will be people doing any business. If the profit is big, there will be even more competition. Especially the manure business requires a lot of manpower, but it does not require much capital.
Such a business is considered an excellent business.
By then, they will make the business popular. If they grab the business, it will be thanks. Therefore, it will have to be related and they will be able to cover it up.
Zhang Chao brought these four young masters in, because of this reason. After all, the four people were standing behind the Duke. He didn't directly recruit a few Dukes to invest in the shares, and it was also because the business was indeed a bit bad. Besides, pulling the fourth young masters in is the same as pulling the Dukes in.
"We don't need to go into the battle in person, we just need to find a few managers at home to take care of them. Then we can just sit and share the money."
"It's that simple?" Niu Jianhu didn't believe it. How could such a good thing happen?
"I know that there are many farms and tenants in your family. To do this manure business, it requires a lot of people. You don't have to be young and strong. You are fifty or sixty or sixty or twelve or twelve or twelve or twelve or twelve or twelve or twelve, but there are many people who need it."
Zhang Chao told these guys about the process of the manure farm, so they couldn't make small fuss. Therefore, they had to prepare enough scale at the beginning, so that they could make money.
There must be a group of people who are responsible for cleaning toilets and collecting manure in Chang'an City. Chang'an is so big, there must be about a hundred people. After all, there are 108 Guangfangs in Chang'an. Even if one person is responsible for a yard, there must be 108 toilet cleaners.
In addition, there are special people responsible for transporting the manure out of Chang'an. There must be dozens of them. They have to be equipped with a manure truck, otherwise they can transport how much they can carry on their shoulders and backs in a day.
Several temporary manure yards have to be built outside the city gates in Chang'an. The received manure is transported here, stored first, and then transferred to the manure yard for processing.
You also have to build a manure warehouse to store the processed dry manure cakes to avoid getting wet from the rain.
Then you have to build a sales system to sell the manure. It is best to have your own logistics distribution and can directly deliver the manure to the purchaser.
It would take two or three hundred people or even more to get this set. In addition, it would cost some money to purchase these tools, manure trucks, manure yards, manure warehouses, etc. in the early stage.
Money is not a problem, but it will take a long time to get hundreds of people, which is a bit difficult. Therefore, Zhang Chao's plan is the same as his workshop before, and he will try not to recruit young and strong people, but to recruit some people who have passed the age of 60 or under 21 years old. After the age of 60, the government will exempt them from their service. Whether it is a military soldier or an ordinary household registration, he will not need to serve after he is over 60.
As long as you are in better health, even if you are 60 years old, it is okay to cut off feces and clean the toilet?
He became a junior at the age of 21, and those under the age of 16 and over are considered middle-aged men, and they only bear very few services.
It is stable to recruit people of this age to do things, so you don’t have to worry about always serving or farming at home to harvest these things. Zhang Chao even thinks that those over the age of fourteen to sixteen can recruit them. In addition to being younger, they are actually more convenient to use. They don’t have to accept any labor, and they are not the main labor force at home.
Chen Chumo and the other guys were listening very seriously.
The manure farm described by Zhang Chao is indeed very promising, but they still have a doubt. Zhang Chao really has such a powerful prescription that can increase the yield of manure to the land so much?
"You can try it first!"
"try?"
Zhang Chao pointed to the village behind him, "There is also manure in Zhangjiagou, and it is not only available in Chang'an. I will get a batch of manure and apply it to the ground at that time, and you will soon know the effect."
He brought a few guys into the village, and the villagers stopped to say hello to Zhang Chao along the way.
"Big Niu, Er Niu, Shuanzi, come here quickly."
"Sanlang, what's the matter with us?" The three guys came over quickly, and there were also several other pillars who were dowed by Cui Yingying followed behind.
"Go and get a few buckets, ask for big buckets, and then take a spoon of feces."
My father was in the yard. When he heard Zhang Chao's words, he walked out and asked, "What are you doing? You also need a spoon of feces and a wooden barrel?"
"Get the septic tank to get some manure."
My father was confused, Shuanzi and others were confused,
"Sanlang said he had a prescription that could refine manure into a manure pill. After using this manure pill in the field, one acre of which could increase the yield by 100 kilograms." Cheng Chumo explained.
Refining manure into manure pills can increase the yield of one acre of land by 100 kilograms
My dad looked at Zhang Chao several times, it was so good that this kid wasn't crazy.
I have heard of the alchemy elixir, but I have never heard of the alchemy elixir. Why does this sound so unreliable?
"Sanlang, do you really have a feces pill?"
Zhang Chao nodded and said only one word, "Yes."
"Where have you heard of this? There is such a thing in the world, and the per mu of production capacity has increased by 100 kilograms?" My father still didn't believe it.
"Dad, manure itself is very fertile, but we use it improperly and have not produced manure fertility. Therefore, we apply manure to the field to increase the fertility. And the prescription in my hand can extract all the manure fertility, making its fertilizer more significant."
Farmers in the Tang Dynasty also used manure, but they usually used it as base fertilizer. For livestock manure, they were simply piled up and then used. Human manure was added to add water to make dilute manure water to irrigate the land, mostly before the land was cultivated.
After wheat and millet are present in the field, manure will no longer be applied, because at this time, manure will often cause the seedlings and roots to be burned. Therefore, everyone believes that manure is only useful before arable land, and only manure is used as base fertilizer.
After seedlings are found in the field, the fertilization is only applied to the ash fertilizer of plants and wood.
"Sunzi, don't be standing there, open the lid and take out the feces."
There are two toilets in the Zhangjiayuan, one at the end, divided into men and women. There is a cryptana digging in the toilet pit in each toilet, which can lead directly to the outside of the yard. A large septic tank was built not far from the yard wall, so that the yard would not have too much smell.
Usually, the septic tank is covered. Shuanzi and pillars work together to pull up the wooden board cover, and a very heavy smell suddenly rushed out. Cheng Chumo and a few guys retreated far away, but their father and others were still standing there. For him, who was a farmer, the smell of feces was nothing, it was the smell of fat.
