I'm Going Both Ways On Game Of Thrones

"However, each of you will take back 100 flintlock guns first, so that the soldiers are familiar with them, and slowly train them. When the flintlock guns are more assembled at the back, you will be able to equip all the soldiers under your command."

"Yes, my lord, I'll take the flintlock gun back to the barracks later, and let those boys practice!"

"With such a powerful weapon, I am afraid that no one in the whole Westeros is our opponent!"

McCann, Kent, and Marbu were all beaming with joy.

"Is there any problem with gunpowder production?" Jason Liu asked Marbu, who was beside him. The entire military factory was handed over to Marbu for management.

Marbu scratched his head, "Fortunately, sir, you reminded me in advance that when making granular gunpowder, there were no major casualties. Only one group accidentally fell to the ground when carrying the jar for storing gunpowder, causing an explosion and dying. One person, the others are no problem!"

Jason Liu patted his forehead. Although he had been instructed before, but gunpowder is very dangerous after all, and some small mistakes are inevitable. Fortunately, the casualties and losses are not large.

Patting Marbu on the shoulder, Jason Liu could only reiterate the importance of safety in production.

The most difficult thing to get in gunpowder production is nitrate. Jason Liu has no time to let his men go to the toilet or the wall to scrape the nitrate. He ordered a batch of potassium nitrate directly from a modern fertilizer factory.

As for the charcoal and sulfur used in black powder, there are a lot of them in Westeros, plus the potassium nitrate bought from modern times, it is easy to mix black powder.

The ratio of these three raw materials is also based on the optimal ratio of black gunpowder found in modern times, and the power of gunpowder is much improved.

Because they were going to Winterfell to join the army of the princes in the north, the city of Starfire began to get busy, and a hundred freight carriages would follow the cavalry of the East family to the south to fight.

In addition to the tents where the cavalry camped, and some of the weapons and equipment, most of the 100 carriages were full of food and provisions.

Jason Liu's biggest purpose is to recruit people from the war-torn Hejian. The refugees caused by the war are most in need of food. Therefore, in addition to supplying 1,000 cavalry, most of the food that his carriage pulls for those refugees.

Among these foods, the most popular among the soldiers was a large batch of cheap canned fruit that Jason Liu bought from Hyundai.

I don't know which small canning factory they ordered from Jason's trading and purchasing department. A glass canned fruit weighing two kilograms costs only 4 yuan, and there are canned fruits such as apples, oranges, grapes, peaches, pineapples, etc. .

Variety, very rich, welcomed by all soldiers.

Even the commoners of Spark City are very fond of such sweet canned fruit, which sells for a high price of 1 silver deer.

Jason Liu was a little curious at first, thinking that the canned fruit was really delicious, opened a can, just took a sip, Jason Liu almost spit it out. It is too sweet!

He suspected that the canners had added a pound of sugar to the canned fruit, which was so sweet that no modern person would be able to eat it.

However, the people of Westeros have a deep love for the canned fruit, which is too sweet, and only think that these cans are simply delicious.

It is also very understandable, after all, these commoners are a bunch of bitter, haha, and they could not even eat enough to eat, let alone eat extravagant candy.

Yes, sugar is a luxury item in Game of Thrones, only the nobles can enjoy it, and ordinary civilians can't afford it, let alone eat it.

Now, being able to spend 1 silver deer to buy a large can of sweet canned fruit really makes the workers in Spark City very happy.

Even save a little, a bottle of 4 pounds of canned fruit, their family can eat for a month.

For example, add two spoons of canned fruit when cooking porridge, the whole pot of porridge is sweet and delicious.

Sweetness is hard to get (baah), sweetness is the taste of happiness, and the commoners of Spark City wish that the sweeter the canned fruit, the better.

When Lina told him that people prefer sweet canned fruit, Jason Liu was speechless, but he understood, so he gave instructions to Hyundai to add more sugar to the canned fruit, the sweeter the better. .

Although Zhou Yunheng from the Purchasing Department did not understand, who would like such sweet canned fruit, but since the boss had spoken, of course he had to do it.

A phone call was made to the fruit canning factory in Hunan Province, and I told the request. The owner of the fruit canning factory immediately patted his chest and said that there was no problem, and guaranteed that the sugar content of each can in the future would not be less than 20%.

You must know that ordinary canned fruit has a maximum sugar content of no more than 10%. Now the sugar content of this batch of super sweet canned fruits required by Yuansen Trade has directly doubled.

In this regard, the fruit canning factory is also making a lot of money.

Hunan Province is a big province of oranges. Every year, a large number of cheap oranges are piled into the ground to rot because they cannot be sold. This time, Yuansen Trade purchased a large number of oranges, and the oranges used as canned raw materials were just like picking up.

The main cost of a bottle of canned food is in glass bottles, labor and utilities, but with the continuous increase in the production of canned fruit, the cost is evenly spread, and each bottle of canned food also has a net profit of nearly 0.5 yuan, which is simply too profitable!

Yuansen Trading has a very large amount of purchases, with 5 million bottles per month. At 4 yuan per bottle, this is 20 million yuan in sales.

I learned from Zhou Yunheng, the sales manager of Yuansen Trading, that Yuansen Trading will continue to purchase canned fruits in large quantities in the future. Therefore, this canned fruit factory, which was originally only a medium-sized factory, has doubled its scale and its production capacity has been increased to 1 per month. 8 million bottles.

In other words, this fruit canning factory consumes 16 million kilograms, or 16,000 tons of various cheap fruits every month.

Calculated at about 500 yuan per ton of cheap fruit, 16,000 tons, that is, 8 million yuan in output value.

All kinds of defective fruits that could only be left in the ground and waited to rot were transformed into canned fruits, which directly brought extra income to the fruit farmers, which made the fruit farmers very happy.

The fruit cannery, who also made a lot of money, is also happy, of course, Jason Liu is even more happy.

With the increase in the production of canned fruit, Jason Liu also cut the price of canned fruit in half, 50 copper stars a bottle, and it became popular all over Westeros and Essos.

The 8 million bottles of canned fruit per month were quickly sold out by merchants from all over the country, especially from the various free city-states on the other side of the Narrow Sea.

These city-states are extremely prosperous cities, and the city residents are much richer than the lords of Westeros. Therefore, most of these cans of fruit are consumed by millions of city-state residents on the other side of the narrow sea.
