Lu Bu, a papermaking workshop in Xuzhou, also saw that the small workshops of three or five people had low output, and they were nothing more than making some exquisite paper for writing and painting, which was very expensive. The government needed a lot of paper to convey government orders every year. It was very good to run a paper mill, but the equipment was too difficult and all were handmade.

"Let's go slowly first, cook sweet potatoes first, and then talk about it in the papermaking workshop." Lu Bu denied it. Although he was anxious to make money, he was worried that the random move would not succeed, which would affect the overall situation.

Lu Bu suppressed his inner excitement and suppressed the establishment of a papermaking workshop, because if you don’t have new technology in this thing, how meaningful would it be to establish a papermaking workshop based on the current technology? It requires output but no output, and quality but no quality.

These days, papermaking can make people worry about death. Just making pulp can torture people. The mills, stone mills, and stone pounding are tortured and broken.

Some people say that the Three Kingdoms are not fighting for hegemony and war? Why do you make money by stroking all day long?

Lu Bu didn't want to worry about making money all day long, but it was impossible at that time. The soldiers who were in the army required money to pay pensions, the craftsmen paid money to pay, and the merchants bought things.

Although it costs less money to build roads and dig rivers, it costs money to make stones, food, drinks, etc.

Xuzhou is not as good as Cao Cao's Yanzhou. There are ancient tombs that can be robbed in Yanzhou. Cao Cao appointed a few lieutenants to make a lot of money. Xuzhou has few ancient tombs, so Lu Bu can't walk the road of Cao Cao.

Then we can only make money by running workshops. Now ironware, liquor, pickles, spicy sauce, and canned food have formed an industry and can make profits for Xuzhou. However, after all, it is still too little, so Lu Bu came to Tengguo to establish sweet potato liquor, hoping that this wine can be sold well and make more money for Xuzhou.

Zhu Bin is studying sweet potato wine here, and Lu Bu left the big yard and wanted to go to see the official sheep farm.

Just south of the pig farm, Xiaohu led the way in front and Lu Bu followed behind.

Not long after I saw a white cloud on the withered grass on the river beach.

This is a group of white goats, and the account records are 1,352. This kind of goat is not big, but has a lot of lambs and is physically strong, so it is suitable for long-distance herding. Their hair is thicker and freezing in the cold. As long as it does not snow, you can come out to eat some hay.

The sheep farm adopts a system of grazing and feed. The amount of food you can eat during the day is calculated. You will go back early in the afternoon. You will sprinkle corn stalks, sweet potato seedlings and other forages with prepared corn particles. This is a good material for feeding sheep, especially corn. Most farmers are reluctant to feed them to sheep.

White goat breeding and breeding rams, the meat production properties and fur quality of offspring are compared with the two layers, and the quality of their hair is optimized from generation to generation.

Every breeding sheep has its own genealogy. Breeding is a long and arduous task. It is not just a extensive sheep and obtain sheep skin mutton like other wealthy families.

There is a separate strain in the white goat, which has a relatively high milk yield and has been raised separately, so it is to be cultivated into dairy goats.

Lu Bu called the grazing shepherd: "Is there still a wild wolf causing harm recently?"

"The soldiers patrol every day and rarely encounter them. Four big dogs will help herd and will notify us if there is any situation."

There are three shepherds and four dogs in total, and the lineup is still OK, mainly not far away from herds. Here, they are next to the barracks and villages. The patrol density is very high, so the safety is still guaranteed.

Not far south is the green goat farm, which looks like the same breed no matter how you look.

Small in size and lambs are produced more. The only difference is that the wool of green goats is longer and the wool of white goats is shorter.

"Xiaohu, how have you learned recently? You can recognize a few words."

Xiaohu was very proud: "It's not a few words, but you can recognize hundreds of words, but you just can't write it well and it's ugly."

"Okay, if you want to learn a good veterinary medicine, you must master the skills of writing and literacy, and work harder. Zhu Zhubo is willing to teach you, which is already rare."

Xiaohu scratched his head: "I know, general, don't worry, I will definitely study hard."

There is really nothing else to eat in the Central Plains, there are pigs and sheep. Other horses, cows, donkeys, and mules are all working, and they are not allowed to be killed unless they are old or sick.

Therefore, the status of pigs and sheep is very important.

A wealthy family with many fields must raise a herd of cattle, horses, and pigs and sheep.

Small families cannot afford to raise cattle and horses, so they must raise pigs and sheep, not only for meat, but also for farm fertilizer.

In this year, technological development is very backward. There is no fertilizer plant, and farm fertilizer is the only fertilizer for farming.

If you don’t fertilize crops, the consequences will be very serious, and the yield is low, so it is inevitable that every household in rural areas will raise pigs and sheep.

The greater function of the breeding farm is to breed breeding animals, raise them for farmers to see, and lead them to work with them.

Lu Bu arranged for the shepherd: "Do work hard and try to raise the sheep well and fatten the sheep."

"Don't worry, General, I will do my best."

The shepherd dared not do his best. Lu Bu went to Teng Country to see the sheep farm. If anyone dared to make a fuss, a bet would be indispensable.

On the way back, Gao Shun and more than a dozen people were riding an iron horse and running on the official road. Each car had colorful flags tied to the shelves, which looked majestic and beautiful.

The sandy road surface is not as good as the painted road, and the speed is still a little slower.

Gao Shun found out the way, sometimes braked and slowed down, and sometimes he used his feet to slut on the ground.

Gao Shun shook his tail and stopped in front of Lu Bu.

"The lord is right. It's okay to run two hundred miles a day. It's just that there must be a way. You can't go to wilderness, hillsides, and fields, and you can't adapt to the war horses. But it's really very saving if you don't eat grass and food."

Gao Shun was very happy. Now that he thought about it carefully, Lu Bu spent several manpower and material resources to overhaul the official road, so he must have thought of developing an iron horse.

"Zhongda is so amazing, he learned it so quickly. He has to arrange a repairman. There is too much gravel on the road, so the tires are easily damaged. You have to learn how to repair and change tires. Carry tools when traveling to ensure that you don't lose the chain halfway."

"Well, I rode dozens of miles today, and I will be proficient in practicing for a few days. For maintenance, I will transfer a maintenance worker to ask him to teach everyone. Everyone cherishes this brand new iron horse, and there is no problem for the time being."

Lu Bu arranged for Gao Shun to spend about a month training a thousand infantrymen and select a deputy general to lead the team.

Gao Shun chose his deputy general, Zhang Yi, who was twenty-five or six years old. He had a good skill in the camp. He had few opponents with a big gun and could not make it first-class, but he was firmly second-class. With him, he led the team to form a fast-reacting Iron Horse Camp. He could quickly support Rencheng, Xuzhou, Taishan County, and Dongguan County.
