Chapter 1809, hot motorcycle 1

In Liaodong, with the beginning of spring plowing, the entire land of Liaodong has become busy. On the wide fields, cultivators are plowing the deep black soil with billowing black smoke.

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

"We definitely need to plant less grain. It is not valuable and difficult to sell. Planting 1,000 acres is almost enough. We can grow more corn, sweet potatoes, onions, and potatoes."

"It's durable and easy to sell, and the price is okay. Especially in winter, the demand in the Jinjin area is very high. You can also plant some soybeans and peanuts. You don't have to worry about taking care of them. You can just plant them and wait for the harvest.

."

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

"If you raise pigs, they are cheaper, but they are easy to raise and they eat miscellaneous food. Let's raise them in half."

Li Damao silently made this year's planting plan in his heart. The grain output in Ming Dynasty has been increasing year after year. The price of grain has always been stable, but it is not easy to sell. The quality of wheat in Liaodong is good, not bad, and the wheat in other places is even worse.

Easy to sell.

Moreover, there are many large-scale flour mills in Liaodong, which specialize in purchasing wheat for grinding and selling it to various parts of the Ming Dynasty, and even exported to various parts of the world. The price of grain in Liaodong is still reasonable.

However, people are not very enthusiastic about growing grain now, because it is more cost-effective to engage in breeding, growing vegetables, cash crops, etc. than growing grain, and you need to earn more. In many cases, the income set for one acre of land is several times different.

Naturally, everyone is more willing to grow 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 worked hard to grow food to fill their stomachs. As for other things, they basically did not consider it and would only plant it 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 huge land, it is impossible to eat all the food grown. Most of them consider the benefits that farming can bring.

Gains are made instead of just growing food to fill the stomach.

Growing cash crops and engaging in animal husbandry has become 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 also needs to add firewood and other things from time to time. This internal combustion engine can be used for a long time with one full filling of oil."

"It's also stronger, faster, and very easy to use."

Then Li Damao began to admire this new type of cultivator. As one of the first farmers to use machinery, he was very receptive to new machines.

As soon as a new type of cultivator came out, he bought one and then sold the old steam cultivator at a low price.

"I'm going to Tieling. I've run out of salt at home. I raise too many livestock and the salt is used up very 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.

Li Damao took his horse and hitched it to the four-wheeled carriage, and then slowly and leisurely headed towards Tieling County.

Four-wheeled carriages are now the main means of transportation in Liaodong. Almost every household has one. Harvested grain and crops must be transported by four-wheeled carriages. The cattle, sheep and pigs raised also need to be hauled out and sold on four-wheeled carriages.

, it can be said that this four-wheel carriage is indispensable everywhere.

The four-wheeled carriage has the advantages of the four-wheeled carriage. In the plains of Liaodong, its practicality is still very high. The only trouble is taking care of the horses. The horses need to be well fed and cared for to make them obedient.

,docile.

Sitting in a four-wheeled carriage and walking slowly and leisurely to Tieling County, you can see huge farmland with busy figures along the way. Liaodong and Hexi are the places where mechanized agriculture is most popular in the Ming Dynasty.

These two places have a lot of arable land but a small population. The land is vast and sparsely populated, and a large amount of land has not yet been cultivated. The use of mechanization is very common, because only mechanization can cultivate more land.

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

The farmers in these two places are wealthy and have strong consumption power and high receptivity to all kinds of machinery. Therefore, what can be seen in the fields are basically machines.

"Dang~dang~"

When Li Damao slowly and leisurely drove the four-wheeled carriage towards Tieling, there were bursts of bells behind him. When he turned around, he saw that it was a bicycle, driving rapidly. The speed was very fast, and he suddenly caught up with Li Damao.

Big hair.

"Brother Da Mao~"

The pillar riding the bicycle shouted loudly.

"Zhuzi, are you 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."

Zhuzhu quickly replied.

"three wheeled motorcycle?"

"You bought a three-wheel motorcycle?"

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

"Yeah, if I couldn't afford a car, I bought a motorcycle and started driving."

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

"Okay, let's go take a look together."

Li Damao was also very curious and wanted to see what this motorcycle was like.

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

The motorcycle sales office is very lively, with a large number of people gathered around. Three-wheeled motorcycles are neatly placed, and there are also a few two-wheeled motorcycles parked.

“I didn’t even take a good look at it when I passed by last time~”

"Is this motorcycle easy to use?"

Li Damao and Zhu Zhu 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 comparable to that of a bicycle. The internal combustion engine used in this motorcycle is the same as that in a car. It has a very powerful power."

"Have you seen this big trunk? It can easily carry one or two thousand pounds without any problem."

Someone who had already bought a three-wheeled motorcycle also said quickly.

“Would this thing work like a wagon?”

Li Damao looked at it carefully and saw that this was another new machine. If it used an internal combustion engine, it might still be OK. The new cultivator he bought worked very well.

"Of course it's better than a four-wheeled carriage. A four-wheeled carriage is naturally easier to use when walking on the cement ground. But if you go to a potholed place, the four-wheeled carriage is not so easy to use. The strength of the horse is also limited. You have to

If you beat him too much, he will give you the choice and just give it up to you."

"But this motorcycle is different. It is very powerful. Even in places where there are no concrete roads, it is still very easy to use. Listen to me and buy one quickly. We Liaodong men are not short of one or two hundred taels."

silver."

"Yes, 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 around."

Someone next to me also said.

"Come, come, pick up the goods, pick up the goods~"

"Whoever heard your name come here and drive away on your motorcycle."

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

"Here, here~"

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

"Okay~"

As a name was read out, a person excitedly stepped forward to sign and put his fingerprints, and then he excitedly drove away on his own three-wheeled motorcycle amidst the roaring sound.

"Zhang Silin~"

"Coming, coming~"

"Yours is a two-wheeled motorcycle. Can you drive it?"

"If it can drive, if it can drive, why should I buy it if it doesn't? I went back to Tianjin during the Chinese New Year and learned from my brother in the city. Otherwise, I would buy a two-wheeled motorcycle to do the hammering."

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

"I bought a two-wheeled motorcycle so that I could go back to Tianjin more easily in the future. This motorcycle is fast and very comfortable to drive. A three-wheeled motorcycle is much slower than a two-wheeled one."

"Okay, okay~"

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

"Isn't this too fast?"

"You're almost ready to catch up with a car worth several thousand taels of silver, right?"

"No wonder the internal combustion engine used is the same as that of a car. The speed is really impressive. There is no way to compare with a bicycle."

"This motorcycle is really good for traveling longer distances. It's fast enough!"

Everyone watched Zhang Silin leave quickly on a two-wheeled motorcycle, and they felt that the speed was quite good. Even riding a horse could not compare to this motorcycle.

The motorcycles were quickly driven away one after another, and all the motorcycles in the store were sold out at once.

"If you want to buy a motorcycle, you can come to me and pay the money first and then pick it up when the goods arrive. The production capacity is limited now, first come first served~"

The boss looked around at the melon-eaters watching the excitement, smiled and said with his hands in hand.

Motorcycles are really easy to sell in Liaodong, especially three-wheeled motorcycles. They have a large compartment that can carry thousands of kilograms of things. They are powerful, fast, and very worry-free. They are extremely suitable for plain areas.

Liaodong area is suitable for farmers here.

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

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

"This thing is really useful~"

Li Damao couldn't help but sigh, and silently made a note in his heart, planning to go home and get money to order one as well.
