"Master, it's like this. There have been a lot of poor families fleeing recently. In addition, Master's recruitment policy is very attractive, so many people and their families have come to work in our factory. As a result, while the manpower has increased significantly, the number of skilled workers has also increased.
Come more and more!" Uncle Fu explained calmly.
"Great, then let's start preparing for the second batch of workers to be sent overseas to study. Fifty thousand apprentice workers must be sent out within three years, because by then a large number of new machines will be involved in production, and the output will also increase.
It will improve a lot!" After hearing Uncle Fu's explanation, Li Ningyu looked out the window and whispered.
"Yes! Young Master! But Young Master, I really don't understand why Young Master spends so much money to train workers! Could it be that the knowledge of foreigners is better than what our Chinese ancestors have left for five thousand years!" Uncle Fu seemed to have some ideas.
There was some kind of confusion. Li Ningyu didn't explain Uncle Fu's confusion. He just said to himself: "Knowledge is productivity!".
The study was quiet for a few minutes. Looking at Uncle Fu standing beside him, Li Ningyu thought of something and asked: "Is the land circle ready?".
"That's almost it. According to your request, young master, Donghua, this boy, has surrounded tens of thousands of acres of land in Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Henan, and Shandong!" Hearing this answer, Li Ningyu naturally nodded with satisfaction and said:
"Well, brother Donghua should be back in a few days, and I'll treat him to dinner then!".
After chatting with Uncle Fu for a few words, Li Ningyu sat alone in the study. In the bottom drawer of the desk, Li Ningyu took out a stack of white papers that he had written on before and read them carefully.

Flue-cured tobacco is an annual herbaceous plant, about 1 meter high, with wing-shaped leaves, funnel-shaped corolla, shaped like a bugle, with pink ends and yellow-brown seeds. It is the main raw material of the tobacco industry.
Before rebirth, people who were soldiers usually smoked cigarettes, and Li Ningyu was no exception. So after rebirth and coming to the late Qing Dynasty, the first thing Li Ningyu thought of was cigarettes. According to his knowledge and memories, flue-cured cigarettes
It is native to South America, but is cultivated all over the world.
In the past, China's total tobacco leaf production accounted for more than 80% of the world's total. The main producing areas of roasted leaves were concentrated in Yunnan, Henan, Guizhou, Shandong and other provinces. As early as the late Ming Dynasty, tobacco was grown and smoked in Yunnan. However,
Cigarettes were generally accepted in the early 1900s.
Later, the late Qing Dynasty was reduced to a semi-colony. After the machine-made cigarettes from the United Kingdom and the United States entered China, although the smell and exquisite production and packaging attracted many people, the taste of the cigarettes at that time was not very good, but this is how it was in many countries.
In a short period of time, foreign cigarettes completely occupied the Chinese market.
In order to change this situation, many far-sighted people in the country also established a domestic tobacco industry in order to revitalize local industries. However, due to problems such as low quality and lack of funds, production was suspended in 1928 and was later reorganized into a government-run tobacco company.
.
From the setbacks, I realized that if I want to develop the tobacco industry, I must improve the quality of tobacco leaves, so I began to try to introduce high-quality foreign flue-cured tobacco. Prior to this, British American Tobacco Company expanded dumping in order to reduce costs, but because British American Tobacco Company was in seed
The control and monopoly on the Internet have also failed to achieve success.
Although Li Ningyu doesn't quite understand the mysteries of flue-cured tobacco, he still knows the most important things about flue-cured tobacco: first: taste; second: price; third: cultivation and smoking technology.
As for improving the quality of flue-cured tobacco, Li Ningyu deeply remembers four methods: 1. Start with soil improvement to increase the availability of tobacco leaves, because soil is the place where tobacco lives, and the physical and chemical properties of the soil have an important impact on the growth and development of tobacco and the quality of tobacco leaves.
Improving usability plays a very important role.
Li Ningyu doesn't know what the best nutrients are in the soil, but Li Ningyu knows how to increase the phosphorus and potassium content of the soil and promote the absorption of phosphorus, potassium, magnesium and other elements by the tobacco plants. The second thing is that the flue-cured tobacco is grown there.
The main production area, the first step of land enclosure, has been handled by Uncle Fu's eldest son Li Donghua.
"High aroma, medium nicotine, low tar", to prepare for the next thing, Li Ningyu will strive for the quality of tobacco leaves and improving the availability of tobacco leaves.
At present, according to Uncle Fu's survey in China, whether it is domestic cigarettes or foreign cigarettes, the aroma quality and aroma quantity of flue-cured tobacco are poor, so the number of smokers is still very small. At the same time, most Chinese people now smoke opium, and smoking is also the main reason.
One of the contradictions, but Li Ningyu believed that with the production of new cigarettes, everything would definitely change the current situation, and he also had an idea about opium.
Li Ningyu will improve the tobacco leaf baking process and use the hot air circulation technology of later generations to improve the tobacco farmers' baking technology and improve the baking process. It is necessary to accurately record the temperature and humidity in the curing room at different periods so that the tobacco farmers can roast the tobacco leaves to yellow.
Bake dry...
In a certain side courtyard of Prince Heshuogong's Mansion in Beijing, Li Ningyu shouted loudly as soon as he walked in: "Uncle E, Uncle E!".
In the afternoon, Li Ningyu wrote a lot of things in the study, and then came to the side courtyard of Prince Gong's Mansion to see Elimu. At this time, Elimu was having dinner with Li Mei. When he heard Li Ningyu's voice, he told his servants
He brought me to the table, and then Elimu invited Li Ningyu to sit down and have dinner with him.
After seeing Li Ningyu, Orimu smiled and touched Li Ningyu's head and said, "This boy of yours has grown taller after only two years of absence."
Hearing Erimu praising Li Ningyu, Li Wei drank the wine in his hand first and said with an unhappy expression: "Haha, this is not what you taught me. I know how to practice martial arts all day long, and I don't want to read a book."
!".
Hearing this, Li Ningyu didn't argue with them. Instead, he burst into laughter without any courtesy, ate all the rice in the bowl, wiped his mouth with his sleeve, and then sat down on his father Li Mo's bed.
I listened to the two chatting nearby.
"Old Li, why did that Zhang Mazi have trouble with me yesterday? I just came here to report on my work, so I don't seem to have any grudges against him, right?" Orimu asked while picking up food in his mouth and only paying attention to the smell of wine.
Hearing this, Li Wei stopped holding his wine glass, thinking that you are really rude, but then Li Wei smiled bitterly in his heart, looked at Orimu in front of him, and had to answer him, and could only say vaguely: "Mr. Zhang
I have a younger brother who works as an associate counselor in Green Camp, Zhili!"
"Oh! That's it!" As soon as he heard Li Wei's words, Orimu understood in the next second that he had taken away his little brother's job. No wonder Zhang Mazi spoke in a weird way. He turned out to be fighting for his little brother.
