Chapter 293: The Wisdom of Little Flowers
Kangxi pondered for a while, then looked at Shuyun thoughtfully and said, "Shuyun, I heard that the kind of black and white flowers raised by Xiangxuehai seem to be good. β
Shuyun nodded and affirmed: "Yes, this is a kind of cow that uses both milk and meat, and after years of breeding, it is basically finalized now." It is characterized by its tall size, high milk production, good meat quality, gentle temperament, low feed requirements, and easy to manage. The disadvantage is that it is not heat-tolerant, but the temperature here in Mongolia is very suitable for breeding. β
"That's right." Kangxi said softly, squinted his eyes and thought quietly for a long time. Only then did he tap the armrest of the seat and asked sonorously: "Shuyun, can Xiang Xuehai transfer a batch of cows over as soon as possible and hand them over to the Mongolian departments to raise?" β
Shuyun summed it up before replying, "Yes, but the number won't be too large." β
"How many?"
"Three hundred, that's the limit, but if you start cultivating it with all your might now, you can take out another thousand in a year." In front of Kangxi, he couldn't say too much, and Shuyun still left a lot of room for this amount.
Kangxi frowned, obviously a little dissatisfied with this result. After a while, he said with relief: "Everything can't be done overnight, and some things will be more advantageous to stretch out." I was still a little anxious just now. β
Kangxi's so-called "some things are more advantageous to stretch out", the meaning of which was also heard by Shuyun. But I just don't want the Mongols to be relieved all of a sudden. It seems that when it comes to dealing with the Mongols, even if they are submissive, Kangxi still has some scruples. But these are already issues that have risen to the political level. Shuyun also has no right to speak, and these issues have little to do with Shuyun. She's done what she can. also fulfilled the promise to the Queen Mother, which is enough.
Kangxi didn't give Shuyun much time to think about these side issues. He quickly continued: "As for the making of toffee. It is inconvenient for the Internal Affairs Office to come forward, and it is not appropriate to hand it over directly to the Mongolian ministries, so I think it is better to send some competent people from Xiangxuehai to take charge, and the problem of sales will be handed over to Chen Ce. Speaking of this, Kangxi paused for a moment before he said firmly: "These two links must be in the hands of their own people." β
Kangxi's meaning has been expressed very clearly. Looking at his serious face, Shuyun nodded clearly and said, "The concubine understands, after going back." Why don't you summon Chen Ce in person and give him pointers in person? β
Kangxi nodded in approval. Then he fell silent, he lowered his head slightly, stared at the cases in front of him, and thought quietly.
Shuyun didn't dare to disturb, so she just picked up the teapot on the table casually and lightly filled the tea in Kangxi's cup.
With Shuyun's movements, Kangxi's gaze also shifted. It was as if there was some deep mystery in that cup of tea. Kangxi's gaze was completely fixed there. It wasn't until the last piece of tea in the water fluttered and sank to the bottom of the cup that Kangxi slowly raised his head and said: "The water and grass in the Shanxi region are very abundant now. In addition to greetings, there is also boasting between the lines. The Eight Great Imperial Merchants have always been loyal to the imperial court. With good deeds, these meritorious men. The imperial court cannot forget that Shanxi is their hometown. I plan to choose two of these eight to also participate in dairy farming. Shuyun. Can Xiang Xuehai prepare more cows? You don't have to take it out immediately, it's okay in a few months, and the number doesn't need to be too big, just 50 heads per family. β
This Lao Kang can really go around the bend, from Shanxi to Greetings, and then turn to the Eight Great Emperor Merchants, going around and around, in fact, the central idea is just one - Pingheng. This is what he is best at, and it can be regarded as the proper meaning of the question. In order to prevent the Mongols from being dissatisfied, even the reasons were listed. "We can't forget the meritorious people," what a good excuse! I really want to be a. son, and want to set up the archway. Shuyun secretly laughed at this guy's careful thinking in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it on her face, and nodded very seriously.
may have wanted to start cultivating his son, and when the two discussed, Kangxi didn't say anything to let Xiaohua go. The kid just looked left and right, with his chin on his lean, and listened with relish.
At this time, I saw that my own Ama and E-Niang ended the conversation. Xiaohuaka had small eyes, clicked his mouth, looked at Kangxi with a little curiosity, and stopped talking.
The problem was solved, Kangxi's mood improved, he changed his seriousness just now, looked at his son who seemed to be eager to learn with a kind smile, and said, "Lao Jiu, do you have anything to ask?" Just ask. β
Xiaohua, this kid never knew what politeness was. As soon as he heard Kangxi allow him to speak, he didn't hesitate at all, and immediately pretended to say: "Amma, are you going to raise cows and make toffee here in Mongolia in the future?" β
Seeing that his son, who has always been naughty, actually put on such a pretended calm appearance, Kangxi was a little uncomfortable and was stunned for a moment. He nodded and patiently explained: "Yes, the Mongolian people are also my Qing people, and their lives are very difficult now, so the imperial court must find a way to help them find a way out, so that they can be fed, clothed, and live a worry-free life." β
Xiaohua immediately looked at Kangxi with admiration, and said firmly: "Ama really loves the people like a son, his son admires him very much, and his son also wants to share his worries for Amma." β
Shuyun didn't know whether this kid was really worshipping or fake worship, anyway, he coaxed Lao Kang very happily, and his eyes were smiling. He glanced at Shuyun very proudly, and then turned his head to Xiaohua and said, "Oh? How do you want to share your worries for Amma? "The tone is called kindness!
Shuyun rubbed the goosebumps that had suddenly risen on her arms. is very speechless for Lao Kang's naΓ―ve attitude. But I'm very pleased with my son's wit and luck. Previously when on the edge of the sea. Although Xiaohua put forward some methods and suggestions. But Xiaohua is still too young now, at the age of eleven or twelve, how could Lao Kang let him participate in such a big event? He may not even be given a chance to learn more about it.
If you don't understand, of course, you don't have the right to speak. And Shuyun, the current mother, naturally can't snatch her son's credit. Not only can it not be snatched, but if there is a benefit and a credit, it must be counted on the head of the son in every possible way. That's what a mind is to be present.
As for Xiaohua's ideas, in Shuyun's opinion, at least after returning to the palace, when the Mongolians have achieved some results in raising cattle, she will find an appropriate opportunity to let Xiaohua tell Kangxi in person.
didn't expect that his son's luck was so good, Lao Kang didn't want to carry Xiaohua on his back at all, and Xiaohua himself was also very competitive, and the timing was extremely accurate. Everything is so logical, step by step to the present.
Shuyun was very happy and gave her son an encouraging look.
Xiaohua nodded imperceptibly, straightened her complexion, and said steadily: "My son traveled all the way with Amma, and found that the most sheep here in Mongolia are sheep. I just listened to the conversation between Ama and Eniang, which is nothing more than to find some money for the people of Mongolia to make a living. The son was thinking, since there are so many sheep in Mongolia, it means that the Mongolians are best at herding sheep, so why don't we help them sell mutton to make money? There are also wool and sheepskins, which can bring a lot of benefits when they are handled. β
The words are not too much, but the words are clear and organized, and Xiaohua's immature voice is crisp, but it seems unusually calm. Kangxi couldn't help but nodded, still very satisfied with his son's performance. But his face changed from the kindness he had just now, looked at Xiaohua with sharp eyes, and said, "Is this your way?" It is true that the Mongols are good at shepherding sheep, but they are not good at business, and now the Loess Plateau is rich in water and grass, and there are more people raising sheep, and the Mongols simply cannot compete with them. No matter how many sheep you raise, it's useless if you can't sell them. β
Xiaohua nodded, first agreed with Kangxi's words, and then said calmly: "Amma, my son has already taken these problems into consideration, as for the solution, please listen to my son." β
Seeing Kangxi nodding in agreement, Xiaohua continued: "If you want to sell more mutton, then you have to find a way to make more people eat mutton." And if you want more people to eat mutton, you must find a way to make mutton more delicious. This reminded his son of the hot pot that Eniang often makes. Nowadays, there are many shops in the capital that operate this business, and every time they open, they are very popular without exception. This shows that the people like this way of eating. So why don't you open this hot pot restaurant all over the country like Eniang's happy inn? In addition, we can also formulate suitable types for people in different places according to the tastes of different places. For example, in the Sichuan-Shaanxi region, it can be made into a spicy pot. Of course, it can also allow the people in the imperial dining room to develop some simple, delicious, and conducive to the promotion of the people. In this way, it will definitely increase the sales of mutton. There are also wool and sheepskins, cowhides, and it is possible to open one or several large workshops specializing in the manufacture of fur products. If the quantity is large, it can reduce the cost and improve production. If the output is too large to digest domestically, it can also be sold overseas with the ship. The son heard that this is what the Shanshan side did. β
Kangxi has been attentive and listened very carefully. Until Xiaohua finished speaking, Kangxi didn't speak for a long time, frowning, and his fingers unconsciously tapped lightly on the armrest of the chair.
Shuyun and Xiaohua stayed by their side, quietly waiting for Kangxi's decision.
"Well, I've thought about it, and these methods are still very feasible. Lao Jiu, what he said is good, he has made progress. Kangxi finally stretched his brows, looked at his son with relief in his eyes and said. Then he paused and said, "Shuyun, take more toffee for Lao Jiu." Lao Jiu, I allow you to eat more in the future, but also in moderation, and do not do anything without moderation. β
