Chapter 2249, enough to feed the Ming Empire for hundreds of years

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Liu Jin listened to them talking about minerals.

    He is also thinking about his own layout here.

    In fact, many of the minerals here are industries under Liu Jin's command. For example, the Daming Petroleum Company occupied the largest oil field here, which is the famous Tyumen Oil Field in later generations. Of course, it is now called the Coldong Oil Field.

    The oil produced by this oil field alone is so huge that it will be enough to feed the entire huge polar bears in later generations. Now, it is enough to supply the entire Ming Empire.

    "However, the current mining volume is not large. In the absence of oil pipelines, oil transportation is a long-standing problem, so the mining volume is not large.

    And there are many oil-producing areas in Ming Dynasty, such as Liaodong, northern Shaanxi, the Hezhong Caspian Sea coast, Huanghuangzhou, the Persian Gulf and other areas, which now have oil output, which can meet the demand for oil in various parts of Ming Dynasty.

    The oil produced here in Winter City is mainly supplied to the Western Regions, Central Asia, Hezhong, Nanyun and Black Earth Province. The transportation mainly relies on railway transportation, and there are special trains for transporting oil.

    In fact, not only oil, but also the storage capacity of natural gas is very large. However, the Ming Empire has not yet used natural gas, and there is no relevant technology for mining and transportation. Therefore, the natural gas here is still buried deep underground, waiting for future development and development.  use.

    Coal and iron ore are also the other two major resources here. The coal here in Winter City is very abundant, comparable to the coal mines in Liaodong and Shanxi.

    The iron ore resources are also very rich. The polar bears of later generations basically relied on the iron ore here, which was why they were able to persist during World War II.

    That¡¯s precisely because of the rich resources here, especially iron ore and coal resources. In places far away from the war, steel plants can be built to produce arms and weapons to continuously support the front line. Otherwise, it would be impossible to persist.

    Coal and iron ore are now the two resources most needed by the Ming Empire.

    Daming¡¯s infrastructure has been developing vigorously. The proportion of investment in infrastructure every year is very large, and the demand for steel and cement is very large.

    There are a large number of steel plants in Daming, each one larger than the last, and the demand for iron ore is increasing.

    The iron ore production in Daming itself is actually very limited. There are only a few places where iron ore is produced. The key is that the quality is very average.

    Tianjin Iron and Steel Plant is the largest steel company in the Ming Dynasty and an industry under Liu Jin. In order to ensure its own production needs, it basically sets up its steel plants in major iron ore mining areas.

    For example, the Liaodong side mainly utilizes Liaodong¡¯s iron ore and coal resources, while the Songhu branch mainly utilizes Ma¡¯anshan Iron Ore and Daye Iron Ore.

    The branch factory in Qiongzhou mainly uses the Shilu iron ore and Tiandu iron ore from Qiongzhou Island. In addition, a branch factory has been established in Australia, which mainly uses Australian iron ore.

    It can be said that the local iron ore in the Ming Dynasty is actually very limited, and the quality is not good. With the development of the Ming Dynasty's steel industry, the demand for iron ore is increasing, which has also greatly stimulated the iron ore mining here in Winter City.

    The Tianjin Iron and Steel Works has several large-scale iron mines here. The iron ore produced is transported by rail to the steel plants on the other side of the river for smelting. The smelted steel is mainly sold to Hezhong, the Western Regions, Central Asia, Black Earth and other countries.  Province, but also exported to Persia, the Ottoman Empire and Europe.

    In addition to oil, coal and iron ore, another major resource here is forest resources.

    Whether it is the vast Siberian Plain or the Ural Mountains, both have extremely huge forestry resources. The vast forests are still primitive boreal coniferous forests. The resources are very huge. The endless Siberian Plain is a real forest sea.

    ??It will take hundreds of years to cut down trees if you let it go freely. If you cut down trees in a planned way, the forest resources here will never be used up.

    This is a treasure house of resources, with endless treasures and resources.

    Future generations of polar bears rely on the resources of Siberia. Even when they are in the most desperate situation, they can still survive by selling resources. This shows how rich the resources here are.

    Such a vast land with such rich resources could feed the entire Ming Empire for hundreds of years.

    Although looking at it now, the level of resource development here is still very low, the population here is very small, and a large amount of resources are still buried deep underground.

    But wherever the resources are placed, even if they are not mined or utilized now, they will still be useful to future generations, and they can still be mined at that time.

    ??As long as you occupy this land, it is your own home first, and it is your own business how to exploit it in the future.

    "Later generations really took advantage of this. They occupied this vast land and resources at no cost at all, which was enough for their descendants to live a comfortable life on it."

    Liu Jin thought about some things that happened before he traveled through time, and sighed and shook his head.

    Fortunately, this rich and resource-rich land now belongs to the Ming Dynasty and is part of the Ming Empire's territory. Relying on the resources here, the descendants of the Ming Dynasty can enjoy it for hundreds of years.

    The resources here are enough to enable tens of millions of people to live a comfortable and well-off life.

    Look at the people in Winter City in front of you. Although they are criminals, because of the rich resources here, they can work as miners and live a comfortable life.

    The Ming Dynasty dignitaries above eat meat, and workers like them can drink some soup, which is enough to live a well-off life.

    ??Here, thousands of miles away from the Beijing-Tianjin area of ??the Ming Dynasty, their income level is comparable to that of people in the Beijing-Tianjin area, and the consumption level here is much cheaper than that of the Beijing-Tianjin area.

    Because the railway connects Central Asia Province with Black Earth Province, Nanyun Province, Hezhong Province and Xiyu Province, the output of these provinces can also be continuously transported here.

    Fruits from the Western Region, grain from the river, beef and mutton from Central Asia, fine wine from Nanyun Province, and vegetables from Black Earth Province, there is no shortage of these things in Winter City.

    The price is also quite cheap, especially beef and mutton. The price of beef and mutton is very cheap. There are also a lot of resources in the vast grasslands and forests around our homeland. Venison is also the most popular meat here.

    This is actually a very typical, happy little life relying on resources. If you have money, you can live very comfortably no matter how you live. Besides, it is still within the scope of the Ming Empire, so this little life is even more comfortable.

    At present, the population of Winter City and the entire Northwest Province is very sparse, that is, there are more than 300,000 people here, and other places are completely uninhabited. There are only a few small towns with a population of hundreds or thousands.

    This small population is nothing at all. In the future, this place can easily support tens of millions of people, and there is huge room for development.

    ¡°Everything is fine in our Winter City, except that it¡¯s too cold in winter.¡±

    ¡°Yes, yes, it¡¯s too cold in winter, and I can¡¯t do anything.¡±

    "Are you stupid? Isn't it better to be cold in the winter? Isn't it nice to sleep at home with my wife in my arms every day? Do you have to work hard like you do all year round?"

    "Haha, when you say it like that, it's really like that. I'll go to the slave market and buy a few more women later. Winter will come in a few months, and then I'll be able to make humans at home."

    "Haha, can you do it? Look at your small body. Don't die on a woman's belly."

    "Go, go, I can't do it yet. There are seven women in my family and I have more than a dozen children. Do you think I can't do it?"

    "It's up to you, kid. There are a few women in the family, but they just can't give birth. Do you think it's because you can't do it yourself? I know an old doctor, do you want to take you to have a look?"

    "Who said I can't survive? I don't want to see a doctor. I think children are too annoying, so I don't want so many. I have a few sons, okay?"

    "Ha ha!"

    Listening to the two big men arguing about something, the people around them blushed and couldn't help but laugh.

    For them, when they were sentenced to exile here, they were scared to death at first. They were full of fear, fearing that their noses, ears, etc. would be frozen off when they got here, or they would freeze to death here.

    "But after I actually came here, I realized that the life here was actually pretty good. After I slowly got used to it, I was not even happy to ask them to go back. I didn't want to."

    Liu Jin drank tea and laughed while listening to their search for flowers.

    The people of the Ming Dynasty now have a really good life.
