Chapter 2014: Township road and vegetable basket project

In fact, in addition to school shops, Tieying also has school cafeterias. However, when Marin started a school, in order to let the children have no worries, the cafeteria does not charge money. In addition, the food production in the North Sea country is extremely rich, and Marin has too much food in his hands, so it does not matter to make money in the canteen. Therefore, the school cafeteria, a very profitable project, Marin can only give up.

As for the problem of school stores having competition from outside stores, Marin never worried. Why? Because those snacks, most of which are not currently available, are still in Marin's mind. Even if there are, many are produced in the workshop under the name of Marin.

When the shop opens, even if there is a shop outside the school, you have to buy from the snack workshop under the name of Marin, and profits are indispensable. Moreover, Marin can also use administrative power to keep the school closed during the day and prevent children from leaving the school gate during class. As for sooner or later, it would be impossible. But anyway, no matter who's shop, they must buy from the workshop under his name.

However, Marin recently inspected some rural artisan schools and found that the children's lunch foods seemed to be too simple. Mainly, the variety of vegetables is very scarce.

Right now, in the Beihai State School, in addition to the rich food in the canteens of the regular schools attended by noble children, the school canteens of the rural artisan schools generally only provide dark bread and hot water. Only in the spring and summer will a small amount of vegetables be provided. Because, at that time, vegetables were the cheapest, and at the same time, the amount was sufficient. Only during the holiday season will some salted fish or something be served. Therefore, the children of the village artisan school usually have dark bread and hot water for lunch.

Although it is said that pure brown bread without mud, wood chips and stones is already advanced in this era, Marin knew that children in the growing period had a great demand for nutrition. In addition, various vegetables are also indispensable. Otherwise, nutrition is not balanced and affects development.

For meat, Marin can't provide too much, at most some salted fish. After all, the school canteen provides a large amount of meat for free, the cost is too high. The cost of salted fish is relatively low because there are more fishing vessels under Marlin. Especially in the Newfoundland fishing grounds near Newfoundland, there is no competition and as many as you want. The only trouble is probably the transportation problem. After all, the cost of transporting salted fish produced by Newfoundland fishing grounds back to the country and then by land is high.

The cost of sea transportation is okay, and the cost of land transportation is so high. When pulling a cart, the horse has to eat a lot of food every time it gets out of the cart, which is costly. Therefore, if the salted fish with very low cost reaches the inland area, the price will not be lower if the land transportation cost is calculated. Unless, can improve the traffic, the cement roads are smoothed everywhere. In this way, the carriage runs easily and faster.

According to statistics, ordinary carriages can only run forty or fifty kilometers a day while walking on dirt roads. This is still European horsepower, pull the car even more powerful. Changed to the short oriental horse breed, according to the "Nine Chapters Arithmetic", "the empty car travels 70 miles a day, and the heavy car travels 50 miles a day", which is 35 kilometers and 25 kilometers. Of course, everything here is a single horse-drawn carriage. If it is a multi-horse carriage, the speed is different. But the cost of feeding many horses is also very high.

According to records, in the 17th century, from Paris, France to Rouen, a total distance of more than 100 kilometers, the carriage had to travel for three days, on average, only 30 kilometers per day. This is a bad road situation. If the road surface is better, as is the current situation in Beihai, on ordinary level roads other than cement roads, single-horse carriages can also run forty or fifty kilometers a day.

But if it is replaced with cement road, it will be very different ...

According to the test, if it is a very smooth cement road, the carriage runs very easily, and it can run about 200 kilometers a day. Even if it is not a cement road, it is just a flat stone road like the Roman Boulevard. According to records, in 1786, the carriage of the Duke of Croix in France, from Calais to Paris, from 5:30 in the morning to 8: 00 The speed of kilometers per hour ran for 280 kilometers ...

Of course, the Duke's carriage is not a single horse, at least three or four horses. Ordinary single-horse carriages and horse-drawn carriages require much more rest time. Therefore, only on the extremely flat cement road can we run at a speed of 200 kilometers per day. It ’s scary to switch to Roman Avenue or Stone Road and run 150 kilometers a day. However, this is also much better than running forty or fifty kilometers a day. You know, in later generations, forty or fifty kilometers is just less than an hour's drive by car.

Therefore, to reduce transportation costs, road construction is still necessary!

There is no need for top-grade cement roads, even cement roads of the same grade as stone roads and Roman avenues are sufficient. The current horse-drawn carriage is fully loaded with dirt roads and can only travel less than 50 kilometers a day. If it is replaced with cement slab road, it is no problem to walk 120 kilometers a day, it is more than twice. If you use the cage ball bearing technology on the carriage, the resistance is even smaller, and it is no problem to run 150 kilometers a day.

Moreover, the current weight of horse-drawn carriages is generally lower than one ton of cargo. Although the cement board is relatively thin, it cannot withstand the rolling of future trucks. However, the carriage with a load of more than one ton certainly cannot crush the cement slab pavement. Besides, even if some of the cement boards are crushed, they can also be replaced easily, which is more convenient.

Previously, Marin had only set a plan to build cement slab roads between dozens of cities in Beihai to facilitate transportation, and he only planned to distribute farmers to build roads during farming slack. However, the farmers only have time when the farm is free. When the farm is busy, the road construction will be suspended.

Therefore, Marin never thought of building a township road. Because, he does not have enough manpower.

But now it's okay, because of the intention to introduce Italian migrant workers on a large scale, the Beihai country can build roads all year round. Not to mention roads between cities, there are also conditions for the construction of township roads.

Of course, the cement slab road between the cities should be repaired first. Every city is the core of every region. Connecting the cities first by road is equivalent to building the aorta. Then, the road to the towns and villages under the jurisdiction of various cities was considered.

In fact, repairing the main roads between dozens of cities in China can greatly reduce transportation costs. Why is this? Because these dozens of cities can be used as "wholesale centers" in their regions. As for the roads leading to towns and villages around the country, there are still rammed roads and stone roads. Moreover, the distance of the townships below from the main cities in the area will not exceed 50 kilometers. Even if the horse-drawn carriage cannot take the flat cement slab highway and can only run 50 kilometers a day, it is enough to transport the goods to various townships under the city.

For example, the transportation cost of salted fish will drop immediately, so that the average person can afford it. However, the transportation of vegetables is a little troublesome.

Because, unlike salted fish. Salted fish is transported from overseas, first staying in various cities, and then scattered to the surrounding towns. Salted fish is resistant to preservation, not afraid of long time, nor care about the long time to be transported to the town. In the same way, those snacks packed in oil paper bags are also very durable, and they also spread from cities to towns.

The vegetables are the other way around. Vegetables are mainly produced in rural areas and then distributed to cities. The more convenient the road, the more vegetables are transported to the city, and the fresher it is. Moreover, the price will be greatly reduced.

Therefore, in order to allow the people in the North Sea country and the children in the school to eat enough and cheap vegetables ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Marin not only needs to encourage the manor to open up vegetable cultivation areas. Moreover, township-level cement slab roads need to be built to facilitate farmers to transport vegetables to the city.

As for the policy of connecting villages to highways in later China, Marin was afraid to play. Why? This is too much material and manpower. Huaxia dared to do this in the later generations, based on the fact that in the 21st century, China has a lot of construction machinery. For example, when digging a river, a large number of excavators are used directly, and no manpower is needed. Road construction is also based on machinery, and the efficiency is also very high.

And now Marin does not have those construction machinery, and building a township-level cement slab road is already very expensive. That is to say, Marin has a lot of money and money, and there is capital to play like this. Changing to a contemporary European monarch ca n’t even repair township roads.

As for the problem of the difficulty of transporting the vegetables in the village to the road on the town, Marin also has a solution-build the vegetable base directly on the side of the town or on the side of the road. In this way, it will not hinder the rapid transportation of fresh vegetables to the city through the township-level highway.

In order to facilitate his people to promote a name for himself, Marin thought left and right, and decided to name the plan to promote vegetable cultivation around various townships and on the side of township highways as the "vegetable basket project" ...
