Ball Ball Cultivation

Han Chou introduced the concept of supermarkets ahead of time, so every city at the county level and above has a comprehensive affordable supermarket.

The shops and factories all had the symbols of guardian spirits. The transportation of goods and operation of shops were all done by the families of martyrs and orphans. With the full support of Gu Zhao, it took only three months to completely seize the market share of the aristocratic families.

Han Xue introduced new fertilizers and farm tools, and Han Lin brought back new overseas crops, greatly increasing food production.

This has completely improved the quality of life of the lower classes.

The status of the aristocratic families was weakened one after another. Coupled with the loss of wealth accumulated over hundreds of years, a series of measures such as the prohibition of raising private soldiers and no longer enjoying tax exemptions, a large number of families that could no longer hold on soon began to sell off their land and shops. As the living standards of the poor improved, they gradually bought their own land.

Besides, with the income from the shop as a foundation, Gu Zhao formulated a new regulation that no tax would be levied on anyone who purchased one acre of land.

This has greatly improved the livelihood security of grassroots people and invisibly improved the status of women.

Unemployed poor people who reclaim wasteland and register it under their names will not be taxed for three years, and the tax will be halved within five years.

The Salesian Home accepts both boys and girls, who enjoy the same learning opportunities. Girls are more careful and thoughtful in accounting and thus have more job opportunities.

The economic base determines the superstructure. In a short period of time, the status of women at the bottom of society has been greatly improved.

Before leaving, Han Chou reviewed the planned tasks again and felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

Coming to the eldest prince Gu Hong, he inspected the repaired road and said, "We didn't build it in time. Look, this section of the main road is only three meters wide, and the drainage on both sides is not reinforced. If two cars pass by, they will fall into the ditch if they are not careful."

After walking a little further along the waterway, he raised his opinion: "We need to dig the river channel a little wider here. It's difficult for our transport ships to pass through. I don't know how you, Gu Hong, inspected and accepted it. I spent all my money, and you didn't even supervise it properly."

Gu Hong explained, "This is the mountain road that was blasted open with the gunpowder you provided. It indeed shortened the distance by several hundred miles, but the water was flowing so fast that with current manpower, it's impossible to build a solid dam. The explosives you provided were so pure that they were enough to flatten this place, but they couldn't change the water flow."

Han Chou used modern mechanized thinking to demand the ancients to do the same, which was indeed a bit unreasonable.

……

Qiuqiu listened to Han Chou's rambling and couldn't help but remind him, "This is two thousand years ago in ancient times. How can they pave an asphalt road for you?"

Han Chou reluctantly stopped complaining: "I just can't bear it. So much money was spent, tens of thousands of people, and more than two months were spent to only open up this little land and water route. The work efficiency is too low! Why did it take several years, even more than ten years, to build something in ancient times?" Emperor Yang of Sui built the Grand Canal and was scolded as a tyrant for thousands of years.

Han Chou and Gu Hong built roads using the method of work-for-relief, which meant that they allowed the hungry and impoverished people to earn money and eat by building roads.

Qiuqiu: "The road construction route I provided is the most time-saving and labor-saving. And the road construction tools Han Xue provided are far beyond existing technology. That towing device doesn't even exist in modern times. And the pedal excavator and conveyor are impossible to appear in this era."

This is the main reason why people moved hundreds of miles away during the two months of road construction.

Han Chou said excitedly, "I didn't expect Xiaoxue to actually make a simple engine. The kerosene was originally going to be sold in the grocery market, but Xiaoxue actually refined it into diesel and gasoline.

She originally said that she lacked copper and iron ores, but after she got the mineral vein distribution map that I accidentally cracked, she was now even more powerful.

Tens of thousands of people can build hundreds of miles of this simple dirt road in a single day."

Qiuqiu: "The way of heaven is really lenient towards the Daughter of Luck. All kinds of opportunities are given to her. She can succeed in everything she creates, and she is also allowed to promote and apply them.

However, the technology is too outdated. After the land road is built, these equipment will probably be scrapped. "The laws of nature do not allow things that transcend generations to exist too much.

"After you've checked the road conditions, have you used all that ill-gotten gains for charity?"

Han Chou: "Yes, the treasures that Grandfather robbed from the Tatar Imperial Court were used to build Hancheng, and the rest were also used to pave roads and build bridges."

"I used a lot of the treasures from the Qiang Kingdom to build factories and buy shops. I didn't count them carefully. But the shops I bought are all under Ku Ku's name. Do I have to pay them back?"

Qiuqiu: "You're quite smart. Then let Kuku pay it back himself and donate 30% of the income to charity every year."

"Okay, I'll make it clear to Gu Zhao."

"Time is almost up. Excessive soul swapping will harm both the soul and the body. Let's take Han Xue back to the imperial mausoleum and exchange their bodies. Please inform Han Yuan and the others to find a place to properly dispose of the things in the storage talisman. I want to take these talismans back."

"Do we need to take back the puppets too?"

"Yes, we will take away everything that shouldn't be in this plane. That engine and steam engine will be scrapped."

Pointing to the sky, everything that shouldn't appear will disappear in various ways.

Han Chou seemed to understand something. Without saying a word, he put on the wind talisman and quickly headed to where Han Xue and Ku Ku were.

“Will penicillin appear?”

Qiuqiu: "I won't erase it on purpose. As for how the higher-ups will arrange it, I don't care." He stretched out his hand and pointed to the sky again.

Han Chou seemed to understand something, because a reborn person caused history to change, he and Han Xue were brought in to set things right. After everything was back on track, things that shouldn't have appeared would also disappear.

Han Xue didn't know if she had any sense of it, but she brought eighteen disciples with her and taught each of them a core craft. She was currently making a mechanical bracelet for Ku Ku in her arms.

Qiuqiu saw that there were three types of carts around, a mobility scooter, a bicycle, and an excavator. Next to them was a woman with white hair and beard, holding a prescription.

"I've tried this Yunnan Baiyao. It's an excellent hemostatic and inexpensive medicine, making it suitable for military use. I'll increase production at the Thirteenth Pharmaceutical Factory. However, it needs to be sealed in porcelain or glass bottles, so the price will remain high."

Han Xue: "Then use a porcelain bottle, cork it and seal it with wax. The cost can't be too high."

"Okay, Master."

Han Chou watched from the side as Han Xue gave everyone instructions in an orderly manner. He found it hard to believe that this was her sister who had been autistic for three years.

It wasn't until everyone left that Han Xue set her sights on Han Chou: "Second brother, is there something wrong?"

"We're leaving here tomorrow. We're going back."

Han Xue paused the high-temperature welding in her hand for a moment, then continued working: "Okay, wait until I finish this bracelet and leave it to Ku Ku as a farewell gift."
