Chapter 50: 1866 Germany (2)


Huang Xuan went out from the logging farm and took back about 50 kilograms of wheat to the workers of the logging farm. The four people were ecstatic. The reason why they ate brown bread was not to know that brown bread was nutritious, but there was no food. A whole sack of wheat is enough for half a month's wages.
The female worker holding the wheat thanked Huang Xuan again. She clasped her palms tightly. She seemed worried that the wheat would leave. She seriously pointed Huang Xuan to the way to Kaiserslautern and asked kindly: "You Are you here to do business? "
There are few emerging industries in the Rhineland region, and production activities are not vigorous. As a yellow race, Huang Xuan is even less likely to join the army. The female workers seem to be very accurate.
Seeing Huang Xuan nodded, the female worker said quickly: "If you want to do business, there are many merchants in Ludwigshafen. Duke Ludwig of Württemberg built the palace there."
"Ludwig?" Huang Xuan thanked the four people again and walked westward. No matter where he was going, he needed to reach Kaiserslautern first. Only when he got there would there be roads and supplies. The best There can be several carriages.
Lorraine quickly searched the information and told Huang Xuan: "Ludwig does have the largest port nearby, and there may be the most merchants nearby."
"Then don't you tell me early?" Huang Xuan always thought Lorraine was omnipotent.
"I can only count the number of people in a region, but I can't make judgments. All judgments are in accordance with the set conditions. I don't have independent judgment ability."
"Just do it." Huang Xuan waved his hand, in short, to Kaiserslautern.
"I'm sorry about this, because Ludwig was more than a day away, so I didn't consider it."
"I thought you would scan this neighborhood."
"But not outside the scope."
Huang Xuan smiled and said, "Again to save energy?"
"The search range must be determined, even the first-level base does not have the ability to search the entire universe."
"Okay, okay." Huang Xuan finally laughed. It was not easy for Lorraine to make a mistake, and things were rare.
At this time, Kaiserslautern was still a small town. It was located in the center of the Palatinate Forest. After World War II, it has become the city with the highest forest coverage in Germany. However, even if it has a Bundesliga team, the entire city ’s construction area and The resident population is pitifully small, with only about 100,000 in their early days, which is equivalent to a slightly larger town in China.
In the 19th century, Kaiserslautern was even smaller. The forest gives it resources, but it limits his development. Overall, this town is always so thin, as if you can see it from the end of the city. But what Huang claimed to be surprising is that in any part of this town, even his most prosperous street can see tree-lined trees, and the only beer hall is covered by the entire tree under the shadow.
There is no market in the town. Every morning the town center will sell some daily necessities for people to buy, but it will not open until the next morning. What can be considered as industrial workers is the lumberjack. Most of their work locations are outside the town. They will drink two glasses of dark beer in the beer hall during breaks, and occasionally visit the restaurant. In addition to this, the entire town does not even have a consumption place.
There is no hotel in the town, and it is also a beer hall. When Huang Xuan arrived, it was already in the evening. The beer hall was still busy. Huang Xuan walked in with some restraint. He did n’t have a dime in his hand. Lorraine took out a few kilograms of white sugar, hugged it and took it to the bar, and said, "I brought some sugar and wanted to change some money. Are you willing to take it?"
In Germany, the beer hall is often a center for local communication. The bar guy shook his head puzzled and said, "You can find Thomas."
Uncle Long Beard, who was sitting on the other side of the bar, heard his name and raised his beer mug loudly, "What does Uncle Thomas need to see?"
Huang Xuan smiled at the guy, turned around and picked up sugar to walk to Thomas, said: "I need some travel expenses, I want to use these sugar to exchange."
"Then you're looking for the right person." Thomas looks like an alcoholic gambler. He put his wine glass down with red eyes and picked up a few white sugar into his mouth. Huang Xuan doubted his taste after being poisoned by alcohol. use.
"Quality is good, how much do you want to change?" Thomas dropped his beard into the glass while he was talking. He used to fish it out, and then took a sip of beer.
Huang Xuan wrinkled his nose, turned his head to not look at him, and said, "I want to stay here for one night, and I will take a carriage to Ludwig tomorrow. If you want, you can change so much money."
"It's okay." Thomas raised his glass again, and said to the man at the bar: "Hunter, take him to bed, account for me." Then he drank the beer.
Huang Xuan originally wanted him to remember the things about the carriage, but looking at his drunken face, he shook his head and went out. To be honest, the taste of this beer hall is not good.
The room was made of birch hardboard bed, very uncomfortable, Huang Xuan got up early, the beer hall was very clean at this time, Kaiserslautern seemed to be a city built in the forest, exuding vitality.
"Guest, the carriage is about to leave. Do you want to get in?"
"Of course." Huang Xuan wiped his face and followed. Unexpectedly, that Thomas looked sloppy and acted very sloppyly.
However, when Huang Xuan saw the carriage, he did not think so.
This is a troika, but it is unbearable that there are 8 people sitting in the small carriage.
"Are you going to sit?" The coachman was a Prussian with a grievous face, and he spoke gruffly.
"His money was given by Thomas." The man in the beer hall raised Huang Xuan.
It is useless to say anything at this time. This is obviously a long-distance carriage, which is dedicated to traveling between the two places. Huang Xuan originally wanted to hire a carriage by himself, or he did not know that there is a public carriage in Europe now.
It's a mistake made by myself. In a carriage mixed with the smell of horses and people, Huang Xuan thought of himself.
A pure-faced Prussian was sitting opposite Huang Xuan. The brown-haired woman beside him seemed to be his wife. The two whispered sweetly. Huang Xuan didn't want to listen to other couples, but his voice came in In the ear.
"Fisher, are we going to cut the forest too?"
"Well, Haltich is right, the volume growth of pure coniferous plantation forests is higher, and the establishment of high-productivity plantation forests can yield greater output.
"We will buy saplings afterwards. Will UU read the book www.uukanshu.com to fertilize?"
"Of course, I think it is better to plant coniferous forests, so the useful growth will be more."
Although eavesdropping is not very good, Huang Xuan still curiously said: "Lorraine, what are they talking about? Plantation?"
Lorraine quickly searched the information and said: "This is the afforestation movement that began in the 19th century. Hartich is the director of the Prussian State Forestry Administration. He advocated cutting all the trees and planting artificial needles that grow faster Ye Lin, plant the woods like crops. "
"That's all right?" Huang Xuan opened his mouth.
"Of course it failed, but throughout the second half of the 19th century and the beginning of the twentieth century, there was a market for this kind of argument, and it did get a higher output. Cause soil degradation, and forest land in the morning, causing death from many diseases and insect pests. "
"In this way, they must have cut a lot of natural forest?"
"It has been cut for about 50 years, and I regret it at last."
