America 1881: They Call Me Legend
Chapter 372 Other uses of saltpeter
Scott is dead.
No one knew except Chen Jianqiu and the driver.
People who knew he had left prison thought he had flown away and disappeared into New Mexico; others thought he was still in prison.
Without Scott, the Santa Fe Group quickly collapsed.
Democrats control all of New Mexico.
As the biggest boss behind the Democratic Party, Chen Jianqiu has made a lot of money.
Roswell Armory built a new plant near Taos.
The new governor Gardner fulfilled his promise with the help of Chen Jianqiu.
Many small factories began to pop up throughout New Mexico.
Sanjiang Bank provided them with loan funds, and Roswell Military Factory provided technical standards and guidance support.
Around them, some desert plants, such as shrubs and mugworts, also grew stubbornly and became a lush green area.
Zhang Danian raised his head, the wrinkles on his face deepened like ravines, and he looked sad:
"It's been more than two years, and there's still no crops growing in this land."
It's just that the experimental field is still sparse.
Chen Jianqiu rode his horse along the canal and approached the experimental field.
He pulled Zhang Danian up from the ground.
And he told Holmes that soon, he would be able to cross the border to northern Mexico to do the same thing.
But as factories rarely appeared here like in the east, many immigrants from the west came.
"It's nothing. Food doesn't grow in this place. Besides, we now have enough funds to purchase from outside."
He immediately found Chen Jianqiu, hoping that he could further increase investment in Mexico.
Chen Jianqiu suddenly remembered something in his mind.
However, as usual, whenever there is a new bill, Harlem will communicate with him in advance to avoid harming the interests of the sponsors behind it.
These small factories produce some upstream parts and components for the Roswell Ordnance Factory.
Lack of fat?
Then they took the train to Juarez, and then entered New Mexico from Juarez.
"Okay, I'll look back at the manufacturing workshop to see when this batch of raw materials can be delivered." Maxim replied.
"This land is not fertile. Everything grows sparsely, including feces, plant ash, etc. I have tried many times, but I can't make it into base fertilizer."
As the main driving force behind all this.
This Mexican deep-water port has replaced San Francisco and become the first stop for Chinese to land on the North American continent.
The two came to the warehouse where raw materials were stored.
Chen Jianqiu rode a black radish and led Zhang Danian to the pile of saltpeter.
Chen Jianqiu naturally understands this truth.
"Then let's pile it up first." Chen Jianqiu said nonchalantly, "The goods from other companies in the Gunpowder Association are shipped directly from Tijuana. The cost of shipping from Roswell is too high."
An artificial canal runs through the experimental field, guiding the water of the Pecos River to the town of Roswell.
Zhang Danian's depression stems from, first, the feelings for the land that have been engraved in the bones of Chinese farmers for thousands of years;
What is the chairman of the Committee of Agriculture without agriculture?
Chen Jianqiu smiled and squatted down to comfort the old man:
"I know where the fertilizer is!"
However, the flash of green that appeared in front of him, although very sparse, made Chen Jianqiu's eyes light up.
As long as I have the resources at hand, with so many chemists under my guidance, how can I worry about being unable to come up with other fertilizers?
"They do this every time, without considering the production capacity here!" Maxim complained.
Maxim picked up one of the pieces, weighed it in his hands, and threw it back into the saltpeter pile.
Chen Jianqiu got off the horse and walked to the old man's side:
"Uncle Danian, why do you sigh every time I see you?"
They are mainly chemists and mainly serve explosives factories.
Because it is dry and rainless here, it is not suitable for farmers to grow, and it is not like Texas where large numbers of cattle can be grazed.
But things are different now.
The content includes but is not limited to building railways, and it is also possible to have promising mines.
At the same time, more Chinese people crossed the ocean and came to the port of Ensenada in Mexico.
"What's wrong? Jianqiu?" Zhang Danian patted the dust on his butt and looked at Chen Jianqiu with a puzzled face.
On the other hand, it is my sense of responsibility as the chairman of the Roswell Agricultural Committee.
Seeing that the matter was settled, Chen Jianqiu turned and walked towards his black radish.
Chen Jianqiu agreed.
Chen Jianqiu rarely interfered in the affairs of the state government.
"The main ingredient of this thing is sodium nitrate. The summer in New Mexico is very hot, so it is not suitable to pile it in the open air."
New Mexico was originally the most unpopular place on the frontier except Arizona.
On this day, explosives expert Maxim suddenly found Chen Jianqiu.
Jin Ke La is a magical thing that can turn decay into something magical.
With the development and growth of Roswell's enterprises, more and more talents have come to this town.
I had been unable to do anything with this barren place before because I didn't have any decent resources.
He suddenly discovered that not far away, Zhang Danian was sitting on the ridge of the field, rubbing the soil with his hands and sighing.
As a leader of the Scientologists, Riemann Tour was also appointed Minister of Commerce.
I got saltpeter from Chile!
Sodium nitrate is the best nitrogen fertilizer you can find today!
Although it is said that using this thing as fertilizer is not as economical as making explosives and gunpowder, I don't say it can't be done!
Now these people have not realized the beauty of chemical fertilizers.
My young master has always looked unfazed by favors and humiliations, and is rarely so excited.
He felt that he had neglected this matter.
Fortunately, the climate in New Mexico is similar to that of the Atacama Desert in Chile, and it doesn’t rain much.
Yellow is still the dominant color in Roswell.
"Another batch of saltpeter has been shipped from the Juarez port." He pointed to the piles of yellow-white crystals in front of the warehouse and said, "The warehouse can no longer store it!"
Everyone is busy.
"That's not a solution." The old man shook his head, "There's no reason to put the lifeline of food in other people's hands."
"The only thing we can do is build a shed first. You go find Li Sifu and ask him to bring a few people over with the materials. Let's make do with it first." Chen Jianqiu looked at the pile of saltpeter and said.
This western border state is gradually showing a prosperous atmosphere.
Some New Mexico junipers are planted on both sides of the canal, blocking some of the wind and sand.
Because former Mexican President Díaz is back in power!
He rode out of the yard and wandered along the south side of the town in the direction of the oil refinery.
As the chairman of the Roswell Science and Technology Committee, evening school principal Holmes suddenly remembered his identity as a geologist.
He felt that he could not waste time, so he proposed to Chen Jianqiu to organize a group of exploration personnel to go to New Mexico to see if there were any new mineral deposits.
Chen Jianqiu pulled Zhang Danian and walked in the direction he came from.
Guns and bullets have been manufactured, banks have been opened, and they are all developing well, but his experimental field has produced no results at all.
That's the experimental field.
Li Sifu was leading a group of people who were busy building a tent. When he saw the two people coming, he was ready to say hello or something.
"Don't build it yet, move part of it to the open space, crush it and spread it directly in the field to make fertilizer." Chen Jianqiu looked at the stunned people and ordered.
"Can this thing be used as fertilizer?" Zhang Danian was doubtful.
"Try it. How will you know if you don't try it." Chen Jianqiu blinked at him.
"Give me some time, I will find other raw materials and let this land grow food!"
