Working Prophet.

Chapter 317 Open Source

Li Yu also knew what the villagers were thinking, but he didn't care, or it was what he expected.

Recruiting adults to study full-time is too wasteful of labor. It is better to train children, and the impact on construction and development is not that great.

In addition, the child can use it for a longer time after it is cultivated.

It would be a real headache for Li Yu if it was really old people who came to school, and he couldn't refuse the other party. After all, this kind of spirit of living and learning is quite positive, but the problem is that after teaching it with great effort, he can't do much. In this year, Li Yu is afraid that many of them will die.

That's a bit of a loss.

However, not many people could see what Li Yu was thinking, and Miss Rabbit was quite anxious for him.

Before Li Yu was engaged in egg missionary work, Ilea made a calculation for him. Although the money was not spent by the girl herself, the calculation was still very distressing.

And when Li Yu came up with this kind of upgrade system, throwing out tasks one by one, spending money would be like a waste of money.

Ilea is no longer distressed, but is starting to look a little scared.

Although the believers of the Shuangxiu religion all looked very happy, smiling all over their faces, they had a great time doing the task, and even formed a mutual aid group to help with the task together.

Li Yu also called this folk strategy group.The promotion of new agricultural tools has also become more and more smooth, and the wasteland reclaimed is much more than before, but the problem is that it is all spent on money!

Li Yu's Pinduoduo-style large-scale subsidy play, let alone Ilea, a country lord, even in the universe he lives in, four or five years later, most people will be dumbfounded.

I feel that it is impossible to do this for a long time, but now Pinduoduo is still living well, and even living better and better. Not only has it turned losses into profits, but it has also created Temu to kill the Quartet in the United States.

Of course, Miss Rabbit's worries are not unreasonable. Li Yu's weekend education cannot be listed, nor can it be raised for financing.

And the funds in his hands are also limited, but it really won't last long if he sits and eats like this.

At this stage, Li Yu is unwilling to cut costs, so open source becomes extremely important.

This is also the reason why Li Yu established the Fortune Club.

The main job this department will be responsible for in the future is to make money for him and the Shuangxiu Church, and to support the various activities of the Shuangxiu Church, especially the operation of the upgrade system.

"So how are you going to make money?" Ilea asked. "Continue selling dragon blood? Or more pepper?"

"The blood of the dragon must be sold."

This thing is now almost the flagship product of Shuangxiujiao. It can not only bring huge economic benefits, but also let more people know about Shuangxiujiao.

Now even people far away in the royal capital know that the magical medicine given by Saturday can restore a man's glory.

If it weren't for being too far away, it is estimated that many people would want to join the weekend religion just because of this.

Moreover, the small blue pills are also very light and easy to carry. Of course, Li Yu will not give up. He plans to bring two hundred more pills here in the near future.

But just relying on him to sell things from another universe to subsidize the weekend education is not a long-term solution.

For the healthy development of weekend education, one is to have its own armed forces, and the other is to have strong economic support, both of which are indispensable.

Li Yu said to the female lord, "In addition to the blood of the dragon, I plan to do some textile business next."

"Textiles?" Miss Rabbit was startled again.

Not because the answer is too outlandish, but because the answer is so ordinary.

The more common textiles in the western region are linen and wool fabrics, of which the former occupies the main position, and most civilians wear linen clothes.

Wool fabrics are relatively rare, and usually richer people can afford to wear them. In addition, nobles will also wear cotton clothes and silk robes.

Cotton was only introduced to the Bratis continent in the last two or three hundred years, and the clothes woven from it are much more comfortable to wear than linen.

However, cotton has relatively high requirements on the planting environment. It must be planted in a sunny, well-watered and warm place. Only the territories of the nobles in the Golden Valley meet this planting condition.

They also made a lot of money from this magical white flower plant. As for silk, it was not something from the Bratis continent at all, and could only be brought over by caravans from the east, so the price has always been very expensive.

An absolute luxury.

Ilea thought for a while, "Are you planning to weave cotton or silk?"

"I can't weave." Li Yu shook his head.

To be precise, Li Yu can weave cotton or silk, especially the latter. The secret of silk has plagued Europe for hundreds of years. During these hundreds of years, many Europeans have always thought that silk grows from trees.

But Li Yu, as a modern person, and a Chinese, how could he not know how silk came from.

But it's useless even if he knows, because the rules restrict him from bringing living creatures here from another universe, otherwise he wouldn't have to work so hard to build a plow, a cart, or a four-field wheel.

As long as you bring modern wheat and rice, and some sweet potatoes, you can wait for the population explosion.

However, the raw materials will not be available for a while, and the development of the processing industry will not be delayed.

This time, Li Yu planned to sacrifice one of the traverser's major killers, the pedal spinning machine.

This thing has a high rate of appearance in the time travel novels, probably because the efficiency is indeed a leap from the spinning wheel to the pedal loom, and it is not difficult to reproduce it in terms of manufacturing technology alone.

The only problem is that most people don't remember the structure and working principle of the textile machine when they have nothing to do.

Anyway, if Li Yu suddenly travels back to ancient times, it is basically impossible to build a textile machine.

He asked Zhang Yanlin to help him find the structure diagram from the Internet, disassembled each part, and clearly marked the assembly process, and then threw the design diagram to Fitzwilliam.

The latter took out the energy of building a ship, studied hard for four or five days, and spent another ten days before building the first textile machine.

But everything is difficult at the beginning, after having the first one, it will be much faster to build again, and the raw materials are also very cheap. Li Yu asked Fitzwilliam to build a hundred of them first, and then recruit some female workers to come over for simple training, and then they can start working.

It mainly produces linen cloth, because the market demand for linen cloth is large, and flax is also abundant in the western region, allowing workers to improve their proficiency first.

Ms. Rabbit saw that the Shuangxiu teaching was in full swing, but she was a little less interested. The main reason was that the linen was too common, and she always felt that she couldn't make much money.

But soon Li Yu started another new business, and this business was actually related to flax, even the cloth that was spun badly could be used by Li Yu, and there was no waste at all.
