"This ...... Jian'er, can these strategies really be achieved?"

Tian Feng looked at his son in disbelief. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The detailed and feasible plan in front of you was really written by your own son?

He's only six years old, so he knows so much that he doesn't even know things?

I also said that I saw it from some miscellaneous books......

Zhou Ming said with a determined face: "It will definitely be done, father, you actually don't know that this place in Haiping County is really much better than other places, and the development of some industries here has many unimaginable advantages and benefits compared to other places." ”

"But this ...... Isn't it too wasteful to take out half of the fields and use them to raise cattle, horses, and livestock in the agriculture style of agriculture that you are talking about? That's tens of thousands of acres of fertile land!"

"And the sea water ...... salt"

Father Tian Feng said with a look of disbelief: "How can the sea water dry the salt, it is almost the same to cook it with firewood, if it can really be dried, why don't others go to the sun, and the salt will not be produced until you go to dry?"

There is also the development of marine fishing, which is even more unreliable, first of all, the Tian family does not have so many fishermen and fishing boats, even if a group of fishermen and boats come over, go out to sea to fish, on the one hand, brave strong winds and waves and danger to life, not to mention, even if those sea fish are brought back, put on the shore to dry, soon fishy and smelly, can not be eaten at all.

"Father, listen to me. ”

Zhou Ming stepped forward to explain: "The combination of agriculture and animal husbandry farming mode, in fact, has greater advantages and multiple advantages than simple wheat and soybean rotation, one is more fallow land, land fertility can be better maintained, two is more livestock, the burden of tenant farmers has been greatly reduced, and there are more manpower and manpower that can be freed up, three, idle manpower and manpower have increased, whether it is seawater salting, or the development of marine fishing, there are enough manpower to participate, to create greater economic benefits!"

After a pause, Zhou Ming said in a clear manner: "As for whether it can be done by drying salt in seawater, father, let's follow the method in the ancient books, let's get a small piece of land first, and test it, can't it? It doesn't take much manpower and time." As for the fish caught in the sea, as long as the salt-drying experiment is successful and there is enough salt, are you not afraid that those sea fish will not be able to handle them? Are you still afraid that the dried fish that are cooked and dried and salted with salt will not be sold?"

"This ......"

Listening to these three interlocking and closely related plans, his father Tian Feng had to admit that if what his son Tian Jian said was true, this plan was really feasible.

But......

This son of his own, why don't you ponder the Five Books and Six Classics, the lintel of the glorious Tian family, so as to comfort the ancestors in the spirit of the heavens, and study these things all day long?

Besides, the Tian family has 100,000 acres of fertile land, and hundreds of thousands of stones can be harvested every year for grain alone, which is equivalent to 10,000 copper coins.

It is better to study hard, strive to be admitted to the Jinshi, and become a big official, so that the Haiping Tian family, which has not had children for hundreds of years, can make a name for themselves and become famous again......

Seeing that the enthusiasm on his father Tian Feng's face gradually subsided, his attitude towards the plan in front of him became cold and negative, and he began to put on a straight face, ready to reprimand himself for a while, Zhou Ming's words immediately made him extremely uncalm:

"Father, don't you want to regain the ancestral tablet and genealogy that originally belonged to the Hai Pingtian clan from the hands of the Guangling Tian family in your lifetime?"

These words seemed to stab his father Tian Feng's G-spot, and he suddenly turned red, glared at Zhou Ming and said, "Why do you say this?"

Zhou Ming pointed to the plan on the table and said: "The Guangling Tian family, the reason why it can become one of the six surnames and eight families, is nothing more than two things, one is power, the other is salt, and salt is the foundation of the Guangling Tian family, if there is no Changlu salt field to bring tens of millions of benefits to the Guangling Tian family every year, the Guangling Tian family does not have such strong capital at all, to help its people enter the court to develop, and there is no capital, take out a large amount of resources, fund the Taizu of this dynasty, help him seize the world, and become one of the seventy-two founding merits of Lingyan Pavilion......"

Zhou Ming said deafeningly: "So, father, at any time, don't ignore the importance of money, if you want to subdue the Guangling Tian family and force it to return the ancestral genealogy back to the family, our Tian family, in addition to making a difference in the court, must also reach a level that can be compared with the Guangling Tian family or even better!"

Father Tian Feng's face changed, became extremely serious and serious, re-examined the plan in front of him, muttered the words "salt", "sea fish", "Guangling Tian family" and "genealogy" from time to time, suddenly slapped the table, grabbed the plan, looked at Zhou Ming and said: "Jian'er, these three strategies, is it really feasible?"

"It's not feasible, just try it. ”

"Then try it!"

……

After more than two months, the father, who often drank and chatted with his friends and spent all day with his wife, had a rare sense of professionalism, and he did not need to be supervised by others, so according to the plan in Zhou Ming's plan, he first set aside 10,000 acres of fertile land from the manor land to carry out a new farming model experiment of semi-farming and semi-herding. Then he personally took thousands of tenant farmers to the east, 20 miles away, at the edge of the seawater immersion area, picked up soil and built embankments, enclosed the sea to create fields, fought for more than a month, and finally built a salt pan with an area of about 20 acres.

On this day, the wind and the sun are beautiful.

After 25 days of evaporation and drying, the seawater in the evaporation pond, which accounts for about 95% of the total area of the salt pan, is evaporated into brine with salinity close to saturation, and then introduced into more than a dozen large clay pots in the crystallization pond, and a few handfuls of firewood are added under the clay pot to speed up the evaporation of the salt brine.

After a while, the old salt worker who was constantly stirring with a wooden stick saw some fine translucent crystal particles appearing in the lower part of the wooden stick, and immediately shouted excitedly: "The salt is out, the brine is out of the salt!"

"There's salt coming out of here, too!"

"It's so easy! These brine that has been dried for many days is so easy to get out of salt!"

More than a dozen large clay pots that had been burned on the earthen stove for a while had good news.

The large clay pot was refined for three consecutive days, and the first batch of sea salt, with a total weight of nearly five tons, was loaded and transported to the large warehouse in Wubao.

Before entering the warehouse, he opened a salt bag with salt, and put a pinch of sea salt with uniform and fine grains and white as winter snow with his fingers, and tasted it in his mouth, Zhou Ming nodded and said: "It tastes good, it is a high-grade good salt, it should be able to sell at a good price, but the yield is too low, a salt field of 20 acres can only refine 100 stone of sea salt (1 stone = 50kg) a month." ”

Tian Feng, his father, who had recently had a lot of tanned skin on the side, said excitedly: "A lot of Jian'er, these 100 stone salts are almost enough for everyone in the village to eat for a year, and we no longer have to buy those high-priced and low-quality poor salt from salt merchants!"

"It's not enough to eat yourself!"

His son's words made him slightly startled, but he heard a thunderous message released in his ears: "If possible, we can take a large area soaked in sea water in Haiping County, go fifteen miles to the east, and build a road with a total length of eighty miles. The ten-meter-high seawall encloses a 300,000 mu salt pan, and this salt pan, as long as two batches of salt come out in two months of the year when the rainfall is the least, you can get 7.5 million stone salt, so much salt, not to mention a small Tianjiazhuang, that is, all the people of the Great Zhou Kingdom may not eat so much salt. ”

This......

Father Tian Feng was dumbfounded, his heart was beating violently, and he didn't know what to say.
