I am rich in martial arts, but choose culture to win

But if things go on like this, there will definitely be troubles.

Yin Susu was very worried that the tribe that she and Zhu Fugui unified would fall apart.

But Zhu Fugui ignored the girl's concerns.

He looked at a large valley in front of him and smiled with satisfaction.

Here is not far from the river, if the factory is built, the water source is not a problem.

More importantly, although this place is hidden, it is not far from the mining area and the planned Pacific Railway.

The Yin people were afraid that the railway would be built at their doorstep, but Zhu Fugui was looking forward to the early completion of the railway.

Of course, the premise is that you have to make sufficient preparations before practicing.

Chapter 029

Zhu Fugui was very satisfied with the terrain of this gravel land.

The land is flat, the water source is abundant, and it is only five kilometers away from the nearest mine.

Of course, although it is close to the mines, it is far from the settlements of the white people.

At present, in the entire Seattle area, there are only sporadic white settlements, and the residents basically come here for gold mining, and then choose to settle down and start farms.

This is largely Lincoln's fault.

He enacted the so-called "Homestead Act" last year in order to win the support of the middle power (especially white people) in the war with the southern plantation owners.

The decree states:

From January 1863, 1, all U.S. citizens who have reached the age of 1, or foreigners who meet the naturalization requirements and apply for U.S. citizenship, can receive no more than 21 dollars for living and farming, free of charge or paying a registration fee of 10 dollars. Acres of western state land as an allotment.After 160 years of cultivation, or those who have lived on the homestead for half a year within 5 years and paid a fee of 5 US dollars per acre, the land received will belong to them.

Giving Indian land to white voters was an act of utter generosity.

As soon as this decree was promulgated, countless western cowboys became farmers with a rifle in one hand and a large fence in the other.

In contrast, countless Indian villages have become ruins and ghost towns.

Fortunately, the Seattle area where Zhu Fugui is located is the most northwest corner of the United States. Although the traffic is developed, the location is remote.

The location of downtown Seattle in the future is still just a small town.

According to the plan, the Northern Pacific Railway, the Great Northern Railway, and the Pacific Railway will all pass there.

The American emperor of this era is very much like a certain country in East Asia in later generations, and the title of infrastructure madman is well deserved.

And the astonishing coincidence is that these two countries of infrastructure were actually forged by the same nation.

These railroads that are still on paper will become reality at a very fast speed in the next few years.

This is the opportunity for Zhu Fugui to rise, and he must seize it.

Of course, another reason why Zhu Fugui insisted on building a factory was that he needed a reliable warehouse.

Items sourced from the 21st century require and proper disguise.

"Wait a minute, everyone!"

Zhu Fugui jumped off the horse, pretended to feel in the grass, and took out a note.

Notes are prepared early in the system space.

But to Yin Susu and the others, it was as if Zhu Fugui found it in the grass.

After reading the note, Zhu Fugui immediately put it away carefully.

Then no one was allowed to follow, and ran behind the hillside alone.

Yin Susu and the others were baffled by Zhu Fugui, but it was Qi Wenchang who reacted first.

He asked: "Eunuch Li, but Long Live got the code from Jinyiwei Tiqi?"

Qi Wenchang knew that Zhu Fugui had a mysterious power in his hand that the dragon could see its head but never tail.

They are all under the command of the loyal minister of Ming Dynasty, the commander of Jinyiwei who is far away on the other side of the ocean, Lord Dingyuan Gong Xing Jiuliu.

Compared with them, his Beizhen Fusi is really too immature.

The old eunuch Li touched his bare chin, and said mysteriously: "Long Live Lord and the first emperor plotted grass and gray snakes, and walked thousands of miles. Is it possible for us to guess? Governor Qi, you have overstepped."

Qi Wenchang was startled, and cold sweat broke out immediately.

Indeed, he committed a big taboo just now.

How can I inquire about the hidden power in the hands of Long Live Lord?

I am a bright gun, they are hidden arrows, and there must be no intersection between the two.

You must always keep your identity in mind!

Just as Qi Wenchang was reflecting on himself, Zhu Fugui came back riding a mountain bike.

Old eunuch Li squinted his eyes, thinking that the turtle next to him must be ignorant, so he explained: "This is called a bicycle, and I'm in Shanghai..."

"Well, a bicycle is a thing for foreigners, and it saves effort when riding it."

Qi Wenchang nodded, "Back then, there were foreign brothers, ah bah, there were foreign devils who sent a few copies to the East Prince's Mansion, and I was lucky enough to ride a few times."

"Oh, Master Qi is really fashionable!"

Old eunuch Li said a new word, which was to cover up his embarrassment.

His little experience in the Shanghai Concession is really inferior to others.

It's a good thing our family is not Liu Jin and Wei Jinzhong, otherwise you don't even know how you died!

Li Chunfa couldn't help thinking in his heart.

……

Although Zhu Fugui's bicycle is different from the bicycle on the East Prince's Mansion, it is not surprising.

They were surprised, where did Long Live get the foreign objects?

Old eunuch Li and Qi Wenchang didn't dare to ask, but Yin Susu didn't have such worries. She stepped forward to look at the bicycle curiously, wanting to study how it ran like a horse.

Zhu Fugui handed the bicycle to Yin Susu, and said with a smile: "Before I saw the poverty in the village, I asked Xing Aiqing's riders to take the money in the money and buy some things."

Internal money!

Although Qi Wenchang tried his best not to think too much, his ears still caught the word keenly.

Yes, as the saying goes, the emperor does not send hungry soldiers.

If Lord Long Live didn't spend real money, how could he afford to support such an elite team of spies?

Moreover, Lord Long Live is now sympathetic to everyone's poverty, and even bought things!

For a while, Qi Wenchang inevitably compared Zhu Fugui and Hong Xiuquan, and was even more grateful that he had met Mingzhu.

"Ouch!"

At this moment, Qi Wenchang saw that the usually heroic mistress had her feet caught in the wheels of the car and fell to the ground.

But His Majesty leaned forward and backward with a smile.

Immediately afterwards, he received a powder punch.

Qi Wenchang turned around quickly, wiping the cold sweat with his sleeve.

Do not see evil, do not listen to evil!

Hey, sure enough, I still have a long way to go before becoming a qualified emperor's army like Marquis Dingyuan!

……

Zhu Fugui said that what he bought for the village was naturally not this bicycle.

This is just for transportation.

Zhu Fugui also bought a second-hand motorcycle, and plans to take it out for a stroll if he has the chance.

Learning from the male protagonists in Taiwanese movies, riding a motorcycle with Yin Susu for a ride, I think I can earn back the face that I don’t know how to ride a horse.

What Zhu Fugui bought for the village was [-] catties of flour, [-] catties of rice, two barrels of cooking oil, and a large roll of cloth.

The things were placed behind the hillside, and the horses of Qi Wenchang and Yin Susu could just be used to transport the goods.

It takes such a lot of trouble for just such a few things, so it is imperative to build a large warehouse.

With a warehouse in the future, Zhu Fugui can operate with ease.

These grains and cloth are just a small test.

Now is the turn of spring and summer, when the grain stored in the previous year is almost exhausted, but the new crops are not yet ripe.

The so-called missing is at this time.

Under such circumstances, there were thirty or forty more middle-aged men in the tribe.

At this time, because of the lack of non-staple food supplements, it can be said that everyone is a rice bucket.

The food pressure of the entire village is not insignificant.

Therefore, Zhu Fugui bought some supplies from the system, and planned to give them as rewards for his studies.

In 2023, rice noodles and oilcloth are very cheap, and Zhu Fugui didn't choose any high-quality goods, just ordinary goods.

Added together, it cost more than 1000 yuan.

As a man with a huge sum of more than 20 yuan and no need to buy a house to repay the mortgage, more than 1000 yuan is really sprinkled!

On the contrary, it was the civilization value, and some of it was used up, which made Zhu Fugui very distressed.

Zhu Fugui felt that although food for future generations is quite cheap, as the population increases in the future, it is best for him to achieve food self-sufficiency.

Civilization is worth these things and should be spent in more meaningful places.

For example, buying weapon blueprints and the like, that is the place to spend a lot of money.

Chapter 030 Academic Rewards and Recruitment

Ma Er is an ordinary Chinese laborer, without the rich and legendary experience of Qi Wenchang and Zhang Changgui.

Before coming to Citigroup, he was just an ordinary restaurant accountant in Shaoxing Prefecture.

If there is anything special about it compared to other Chinese laborers, it is that Ma Er can read and know how to do arithmetic, and his calculations are very fast, fast and good.

Unlike Zhu Fugui and Qi Wenchang, Ma Er has never had any lofty ambitions, let alone thought about national righteousness.

In his opinion, these guys who twisted their pigtails and yelled against the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty were utterly dangerous.

However, this thinking has changed in recent times.

Ma Er's ideal when he was a child was to become a qualified Shaoxing master like his clan brothers.

So he worked very hard on documents and Mandarin.

It's a pity that good luck tricked others, and in the end he was not selected as a master, so he could only work as a accountant in a restaurant.

Thanks to this experience, Ma Er is one of the best Chinese characters among all the Chinese workers.

Therefore, in this round of vigorous literacy campaign, Ma Er became one of the teachers.

And because he can read a lot, Zhu Fugui also asked him to be responsible for telling stories to the Chinese workers.

Of course, it is not about the Four Books and Five Classics, but a story similar to the Complete Works of Shuo Yue.

Firstly, it can alleviate the boring of learning, secondly, it can subtly cultivate the patriotism of Chinese workers, and thirdly, it is naturally to harvest some cultural value.

At first, Ma Er warned himself not to be a thief.

I was forced to do this just to survive.

But later, Ma Er gradually became really fragrant.

Especially every time when Yue Wumu looked up to the sky and shouted "The sun is shining, the sky is shining" in the Fengbo Pavilion, even Ma Er himself couldn't help but feel emotional:

Lord Yue killed Jurchen, well done!

Later, a new script was issued from above.

This time, Ma Er has never heard of the story.
