With the experience of firing for the first time, Yuanshan became even more addicted to it, and two days later, thoughtfully found more than ten craftsmen who could make pottery, and then the Yuanjia Manor pottery production project began. \ In order to speed up the production of gears, Yuan Shan directly asked Steward Zhou to contact the blacksmith shop to make different gear parts together, while Blacksmith Lu directly put the task on the production of chains.
A week later, three successive billet making machines were completed and put into use, and the craftsmen who made pottery invited by Zhou Steward gave high praise to the new billet making machine, although the speed of the runner driven by pedaling the bicycle was uneven, but this efficient way of making pottery blanks still greatly improved their craftsmanship.
It should be said that it is a play of their craftsmanship, and a bowl can be made by pedaling a few laps of the bicycle, which is completely faster than other kilns for ceramic production.
In addition, Yuan Sha was able to pay a lot of wages to these craftsmen, and completely and directly left people on the champion, and in the next two weeks, no less than tens of thousands of pieces of various pottery were burned, most of which were bowls, plates, plates, and other daily necessities.
After these two batches of pottery were fired, the autumn harvest time also followed, and the helpers in the cement factory and brick factory all went home to harvest the crops.
The money they have earned in the past few months has made their lives much better, plus working in the Yuan family and distributing brand-new coarse cloth clothes, so they have saved a lot of money.
When the helper of Silizhuang helped in Yuanjiazhuang, he knew that the crops of Wulizhuang were the best crops in the township, and later I asked to know that it was originally a thing called bottom fertilizer, and from the current crop growth, it was definitely a bumper harvest.
When it was almost October, Yuanjiazhuang organized the family Ding and Yu Chi Baolin and others to start harvesting the crops, and the family harvested the crops of 100 acres of fertile land, while Yu Chi Baolin and others were sent to the wasteland to break buds and cut straw.
The strength of the people is great, the harvest of 100 acres of crops and more than 20 acres of buds is completed in a few days, the straw of the buds is collected and chopped with a gate knife and used to feed the cattle, and a part of the dried ones are used for illegal vegetable gardens and used as firewood.
The crops of the Yuan family manor are not only buds, but also potatoes, etc., which will be harvested after October.
After finishing his own Yuanshan, he began to call Yu Chi Baolin and others to help the farmers harvest, and people's faces were full of joy during the harvest season.
Liu Lizheng saw that Yuan Shan had called for help, so he also began to organize the farmers who had finished harvesting the crops to start helping in the village.
Guo Xianling heard that Wulizhuang had a bumper harvest, which had nearly doubled the average annual crop yield, so he couldn't sit still, and went directly from Lantian County to Wulizhuang to inspect.
It's just that this harvest is still a bit exaggerated, in previous years, it was two or three hundred catties of grain, but this year it has to reach an average harvest of more than five hundred catties per mu.
This is still determined according to the actual amount of land, the average is at least 30 mu, and the worst harvest of this year is 150 stone of grain, so that the income of this year is at least 40 or more.
The price of grain will be reduced if there is a bumper harvest, but now in terms of the harvest in Wulizhuang, in the entire Datang, it will not play much role in the entire Lantian County, but Guo County Ling can indeed get a good report card.
After half a month of busyness, the farmers of Wulizhuang have brought something to thank Yuanshan, if Yuanshan hadn't told them to use base fertilizer to increase production, they would not have such a harvest now.
Seeing that the dealers came to thank the gifts, Yuan Shan got the notice and came out of the study, and all the people on the village came to see the good guys, and Yuan Shan saw that the villagers were so enthusiastic and did not shirk some of the gifts they sent.
But then Yuan Shan said that since everyone came, then simply have a dinner together, and directly use the things brought by the Zhuang household as the staple food, and Yuan Shan asked people to kill two pigs as a dish.
The whole Wulizhuang was lively again, and some people said that the government would return to the Yuanjia kiln factory to continue working after harvesting the grain.
Yuanshan naturally agreed, although the cement bricks are not sold in large quantities, they are also necessary for their own construction.
Seeing the elated appearance of the villagers, Yuan Shan was also happy for them, but he had a headache when he talked about his own hundred acres of land, but in fact there were not so many at all, and there were no officials, and the baron was too sad to do his part.
Today's dinner Yuanshan specially asked people to inform the farmers not to go home to get the bowls, everything will have the manor to provide, but when it was time to start the meal, the farmers were holding the glazed porcelain bowls in their hands one by one are very careful to use, very afraid of breaking their hands.
In fact, it doesn't take much money to buy this kind of ceramics in the market, in fact, this glazed ceramic bowl sells for about ten cents a bowl, but this style looks better.
Such a bowl can be fired in a kiln to produce thousands of pieces, Yuan Shan thought that he could take it out and sell it, after all, there is no end to the use of such a bowl manor now, and now they have begun to make ceramics with patterns.
Each bowl is 10 cents, the plate is 5 cents, the large bowl is 30 cents, the small Fluttershy is 2 cents, the chopsticks are 1 cent, the porcelain spoon is 2 cents, the soup spoon is 10 cents, the porcelain cup is 50 cents, the large cup is 10 cents, the teapot with six teacups is 50 cents, and all kinds of bottles and cans start from 5 cents, the more complicated, bigger and more expensive.
Yuan Shan found that there seemed to be a lot of product types in the pottery workshop, and it was not bad to simply open a ceramic products store, but thinking about it, it seemed that it seemed slow to make money, but the new colors produced could attract the attention of many people.
Another afternoon had passed, and the refinery had not yet been planned, so he returned to the yard and plunged into the study to continue his planning.
The old mansion of the Yuan family really can't be used for oil refining, so it was decided to find a place to build a new oil refinery in the mountain behind the Yuan family manor, and the paraffin plant will also be placed in the back mountain area.
Brick kilns, cement kilns, lime kilns, and clay kilns will be divided into industrial zones, and the next step will be the construction of the old house area, and the plan is to build a waizhuang in the entire area of the old house.
Since then, the Yuanjia Manor has been divided into the outer village and the inner village, and most of the land in the outer village will be divided into planting areas, mainly used to plant medicinal herbs and some fruits and vegetables, etc., and a large number of green plants will be built, the chess hall will be integrated into the garden, and some more formal clubhouse tea houses will be built.
Yuanshan's life is planning the manor every day, and as time goes by, the candles are selling better and better, especially near the end of the year, the two candle agents settled the payment for Yuanshan during this time as high as more than 1,600 taels of gold.
This is not a dream but a reality, now the whole Chang'an City will prepare some candles, and the same is true for the officials of Chaotian, and the Zheng family's beeswax is still used as a special supplier of the imperial court, but the most and fastest sold are ordinary candles.
Weddings and funerals are now lacking these things, and the last time they have to light oil lamps, and now it is approaching the New Year, the demand for candles is still rising, this month the Zheng family is already the second time to buy, and it is expected that there will be a new breakthrough in this year's income.
The eldest grandson's family is also doing well, and the candles used by many officials are basically from the eldest grandson's family, and the channel for sending the head office in Heping Fang is still the Qinglou of Pingkangfang, and the price is also the wholesale price, but it is not much cheaper, and the price is 490 Wen per piece.
So far, the amount of gold and silver that Yuanshan now has has reached more than 2,200 taels of gold, and it has directly climbed to the ranks of wealthy households in Chang'an, but the ranking will definitely not be too high.
