The county magistrate's daughter only wants to farm
Chapter 75: I don’t care about whether he is a gentleman or not
Gu Yin continued, "The three major industries are interdependent and mutually restrictive. The primary industry lays the foundation for the secondary and tertiary industries; the secondary industry is the core of the three major industries and has a driving effect on the primary industry; the primary and secondary industries create conditions for the tertiary industry, and the development of the tertiary industry promotes the progress of the primary and secondary industries."
Zhang Letian felt dizzy after listening to it, but he still tried hard to continue listening.
"Take Ning County for example. If we want to develop the catering industry, don't we first need people to consume it?" Gu Yin didn't wait for them to express their opinions and continued, "Then how can people consume it? Do they need money and time?"
Nowadays, most people are busy making a living. Farmers go out early and come back late to farm the land. They have no time to consume.
"Then how can we give the people both money and time?" Gu Yin continued to ask.
Everyone followed Gu Yin's question and thought about what his sister had made in recent months. He asked tentatively, "Invent new agricultural tools to help farmers farm faster?"
"Yes, that's one aspect. But if we just increase the speed, they will spend more time growing more crops, and in the end they still won't have time to consume?" Gu Yin continued with Gu Chenshuo's words.
"Increase crop yields." Jun Xiao understood the meaning of Gu Yin's words and added.
"That's right. Farmers' farming speed has increased, and grain production has also increased. So can we grow more grain in less time?" Gu Yin nodded. "Can we sell the extra grain for consumption? We can also use the extra time to start some other small businesses to make money to supplement the family income."
"With money and time, social activities will be more frequent, which will stimulate consumer demand accordingly, and people will have more needs." Gu Yin brought the topic back to the topic, "Take the catering industry for example. In winter, people want to eat green vegetables. What should we do? Will it in turn drive agriculture, that is, the primary industry, to find ways to meet this demand? Will the tertiary industry promote the progress of the primary industry?"
Jun Xiao was thoughtful after hearing this...
However, some people were thinking about the important affairs of the court, while others only heard part of it.
"How can we eat green vegetables in winter?" Song Ruorou asked Gu Yin, blinking her big eyes.
"Ah, this is a really good question. Why don't you study it?" Gu Yin also blinked and looked at Song Ruorou.
"Hateful! Are you making fun of me?" Song Ruorou became anxious and pretended to hit Gu Yin.
Ye Ningxin was watching with great amusement and pulled her back to the chair: "Hahaha, you're still asking even though you know it."
After a pause, Ye Ningxin dragged out the last word and said, "But if you really want to eat it, it's not impossible."
"Really?" Song Ruorou asked in surprise.
Ye Ningxin nodded and said with a wicked smile: "Just follow me back to Nanshui County. It's not too cold there in winter, and we can still eat some vegetables."
"Huh? Even you are making fun of me." Song Ruorou reacted and immediately started to quarrel with Ye Ningxin.
She was able to stay in Ning County for so long thanks to her cousin, otherwise her parents would definitely not allow her to leave the capital for such a long time.
Jun Lan glanced at Gu Yin and felt that since she could say such words, there must be a way to do it.
"This... is easier said than done." Zhang Letian digested it for a long time and finally figured it out, sighing.
"If it's difficult, can we just not do it?" Gu Yin said calmly, and... "Think about Ning County now, is it really that difficult in reality?"
Maybe according to the normal historical process, each step of development would take dozens, hundreds or even thousands of years, but now we have a system, right? And this half of her plug-in.
Everyone suddenly realized that today's Ning County, the environment of the county seat, and the mental outlook of the people are indeed very different from before.
"Then... what can we do?" Zhang Letian couldn't think of anything. He could neither invent new tools nor increase food production.
"You guys...let your family run the business well and provide more job opportunities for the people. That's the greatest contribution you can make to the county."
"This..." Zhang Letian was dumbfounded. Isn't this what their family does? What kind of contribution is this?
Su Zimo patted Zhang Letian on the shoulder and said, "Ms. Gu probably wants to say that we should also find a way to do better."
How to do better... Zhang Letian felt his mind was a mess...
"Miss, someone is looking for you." Suddenly, Butler Li came to the yard with someone.
"Hmm?" Gu Yin looked up and saw Gu Shu leaning on a cane behind Butler Li. She said happily, "Brother Gu Shu, why are you here?"
"Miss, I have figured out what you asked me to do." Gu Shu felt a little reserved when he saw the young men and women all over the yard.
"So fast!" Gu Yin walked forward in surprise and asked Gu Shu to sit down first.
Gu Shu then sat down, but he only sat half way down, and it was obvious that he was still a little nervous.
Gu Yin was anxious to know the result, and looked at the ancient tree, waiting for his explanation.
Gu Shu took out something wrapped in a piece of cloth from the small basket he carried on his back.
At this time, everyone's attention was also attracted here. They stopped grilling meat and wanted to come over to see what was going on, but they were embarrassed.
However, Gu Yin didn't notice the state of the crowd, her eyes were fixed on the thing in Gu Shu's hand. Gu Shu lifted the cloth to reveal the model inside.
It is actually a model of a waterwheel mill. Not only is it exquisitely made, but the focus is on the structure inside, and you can clearly see the linkage between its various parts.
"Miss, look, when this waterwheel turns, it will drive the wheel underneath, and then push the stone mill on the workshop. As long as there is water flow to make the waterwheel turn, the stone mill can operate automatically." Gu Shu gently pushed the waterwheel and explained while demonstrating to Gu Yin.
Hearing about the waterwheel, Jun Xiao could no longer sit still. He didn't care about being a gentleman or not. He stood up first and walked to Gu Yin, and saw what Gu Shu was holding.
"This, this is..." Jun Xiao obviously guessed the function of this thing and stuttered in disbelief.
Gu Shu saw a noble young man suddenly walking towards him. He didn't know how to react and looked at Gu Yin.
Gu Yin simply turned around and said to everyone, "Anyone who is interested, come and take a look."
When everyone gathered around, he smiled and explained, "This is a water mill."
"Waterwheel mill?" everyone was puzzled.
"Yes, this is based on the waterwheel. With the help of the waterwheel, the stone mill can be driven by itself. In the future, as long as a waterwheel mill is built, the people will not have to work so hard to pound rice!"
