Bulgarian Empire

　　 30 kilometers northeast of the center of the Kazanlak Rose Valley, with an average elevation of 200 to 400 meters, it is the most suitable place for the growth of roses in the world.

　　 The highest quality Damascus rose grows here. It comes from the warm and humid air brought by the Black Sea and the Mediterranean to the east. The Balkan Mountains to the west block the cold air from the north, causing the temperature difference between morning and evening to be larger than in the center of Rose Valley.

　　 However, the petals of Damascus rose almost do not contain floral wax, so how can the fragrance of the rose be protected?

　　 In order to protect the fragrance molecules of roses from being evaporated with moisture by sunlight, the natural environment with a greater temperature difference between morning and evening creates more morning dew for the roses than before.

　　The more morning dew, the more it can protect the fragrance of roses from being lost, so here is always the world's top rose essential oil.

　　 Rose essential oil processing has a huge labor demand. In addition to the large number of workers required for processing, the demand for the number of flower farmers is really huge.

　　 Roses are very delicate. The best picking time is from 8 am to 10 am every morning. Only during this period of time can the highest quality roses be collected.

　　The rose flowers after picking are sealed to prevent the aroma from volatilizing, and then they are transported to the factory to process rose essential oil using the centuries-old distillation method.

　　 Looking at the sorted information, Ferrantz got more headaches as he read it. Rose planting is the real intensive cultivation, and each acre of land requires at least two to three experienced flower farmers to pick it.

　　 The highest quality rose essential oil requires more than ten tons of high-quality rose petals to extract one kilogram. Even after adopting the new technology, the output of second-class essential oils is not much higher. (Now it takes three to five thousand catties to extract one catty)

　　 Ferranz calculated a little bit, now the yield of roses per mu is only three to four hundred kilograms, even if one kilogram of ordinary rose essential oil is extracted, at least 15 mu of land must be planted.

　　 If you calculate the production capacity of one thousand kilograms of essential oil for each harvest, it is 15,000 mu. It doesn't seem to be much. If it is a common crop, dozens of people can handle it with mechanized operations.

　　 But if you plant roses, you will need thirty or forty thousand people. Unlike later generations, there should be no problem with the harvest of roses in this era, otherwise the fragrance will be released and no oil will be extracted.

　　 What really troubles Ferrantz is that when the flower farmers only pick them every year, the demand is so great, and they don't usually need so much manpower.

　　 Hiring so many workers for a long time means that manpower is greatly wasted. If it is for a short period of time, where can I find so many experienced workers?

　　 Everyone knows that rose essential oil makes money, but Bulgaria still has no large-scale processing enterprises. This means that the rose industrial park cannot be established in the short term.

　　 "Do you want to split the processing plants? Set up scattered small plants?" Thinking about it, Ferrantz shook his head again. If it is so dry, then rose essential oil processing will become a chicken rib.

　　 There is no way, Ferrantz can only explain the situation to Ferdinand honestly.

　　 After hearing Ferrantz’s reasons, Ferdinand also felt very troublesome. The 19th century was different from later generations.

　　 Later generations can be handed over to farmers for scattered planting, and then concentrated for processing. Anyway, there is automobile transportation, and it takes a few hundred kilometers to spend little effort. Moreover, it can be refined by chemical methods, and the loss of a little fragrance is also tolerable.

　　 As for Feranci's proposal to build a factory separately, Ferdinand didn't even think about it. He spent so much effort, not just to make a few hard money.

　　 It is not impossible to solve the employment problem, as long as it is enough to find a stable job for the flower farmers. They are usually sent to work as usual, and only in the harvest season are they sent over to work part-time for a few days.

　　Ferdinand's brain is wide open, thinking about the solution: Should we learn from future generations and engage in tourism? No way! This year, what idiot will come to travel!

　　 "Ferlanz, can you see if you can arrange the flower growers into our other factories, and go to work as usual, but come to help during the rose harvest season!" Ferdinand thought for a while and came up with an unreliable suggestion

"Your Excellency, I have also considered this issue, but now many of our factories are already full, and even if we need to resettlement now, it is a drop in the money, and we can't get the resettlement. We can't take the lead in violating the labor law and expelling workers at will!" Said with a wry smile

　　 "Then, just let the workers learn to pick roses~~ This is even more unreliable!" Before Ferdinand finished speaking, he vetoed it.

Seeing that Ferdinand was also worried, Ferrantz suggested: "Your Excellency, let's reduce the scale first! As long as we don't build such a big one at a time, plus the essential oil processing plant and supporting facilities that will be launched, within 10,000 people, We can still reluctantly settle it!"

　　 Ferdinand suddenly had an inspiration, "Supporting!"

　　 "By the way, industrial park, industrial zone!"

　　 Easy to go, Ferdinand smiled and said, "I have a way!"

　　 Ferrantz looked at Ferdinand with some doubts, a bad premonition spontaneously arises. Your Excellency will not make any big moves again!

Looking at the confused Ferrantz, Ferdinand didn’t sell anything, and said with a smile: “Ferrantz, I plan to build an industrial park. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com has designated a development zone directly under the jurisdiction to encourage the concentration of scattered domestic enterprises. Together!"

　　 After hearing Ferdinand's words, Ferrantz's face looked even more ugly, as expected. I thought to myself: This time I co-authored this to move the factory.

　　 There are now large-scale factories in Bulgaria, which are basically Ferdinand’s industries. encourage? As long as you speak, can you not move?

　　 Looking at Ferrantz, whose face changed drastically, Ferdinand also knew about this proposal, which was a bit too advanced. Even Ferrantz couldn't understand, let alone the others.

　　 Regardless of other people's understanding, Ferdinand intends to promote it in Bulgaria. Later generations have proved that industrial concentration is conducive to promoting industrial upgrading.

　　 And the birth of each development zone will drive the development of the local economy and provide a large number of jobs.

Ferrantz asked puzzledly: "Your Excellency, our factories are now scattered all over the country, all to reduce costs and facilitate transportation. If they are put together, the cost will definitely increase! And can this really solve the problems we face? ?"

Ferdinand said in a very positive tone: "Of course! Once the development zone is launched, it is equivalent to building a new city. The infrastructure alone can provide tens of thousands of jobs. Now you can let go of your hands and feet to recruit people. Then set up a construction company and you can place a lot of manpower!"

　　 Hearing Ferdinand’s idea, Ferantz was dumbfounded for an instant, and there is such an operation! Ferranz's three views have been subverted. In order to do rose essential oil processing, a new city was created. Is this the highest state of power for personal gain?

　　……

　　 When Ferrantz was about to leave, Ferdinand added: "By the way, Ferrantz, when you go to the field, take a look at the way, where is suitable for establishing a development zone?"
