Chapter 207 Liaodong's Arrangement

"Over there, do you still harvest wool this year?" Han Qianxun asked.

Wool purchase has always been the responsibility of Buyeo City, and it is also convenient to recruit idle workers here.

After several years of mining, the salt and coal mines here have basically reached the maximum output, after all, they are only two small mining areas, so the key industries in Fuyu City are aquaculture, planting and wool purchase, as for the production of goat milk powder, local output is on the line.

The main reason for not getting goat's milk from other tribes to make flour is that it is inconvenient, and I don't want to teach those who have not returned. The goat milk produced by local herders is delivered to nearby purchasing sites every day, which can be regarded as an additional income.

"Here's the problem! The first people to discover goat's milk and cow's milk, what did they do with cattle and sheep? Occasionally, Zou Yu would also think of a soul question he had heard before.

After following Zou Yu, the herdsmen learned that the whole body of the sheep was useful, sheep manure land, wool for clothes, quilts, and even goat milk could be sold. These are all sustainable incomes, even if there are not many sheep at a time, over many years, it is still very considerable.

"Of course not! Not only did they not collect wool, they blocked the border gates, and did not let any goods flow into the grasslands. Thinking that Mu Wei actually took advantage of the fire to rob, Zou Yu's heart was on fire, he raised his eyebrows, and said sternly.

You must know that Murwei, the former Khitan, Xi, Xi, and Ya people, as well as the Ya tribe, almost most of the commodities came from Goguryeo, Silla and Baekje, but there were few in the Central Plains, so Zou Yu said that Buyeo City was blocked.

"The subordinates understand that they promise that not a single grain of salt will be put away." Han Qianxun arched his hand and smiled.

"Wait for them to come to the door, and then it's not too late to relax, it is said that the people of Muwei are good at raising pigs, and they can collect more piglets when the time comes."

"Speaking of the pigs in this house! It's really good, after castration, not only does it grow faster, but it doesn't smell as bad as before. Han Qianxun exclaimed.

I didn't pay much attention to people's livelihood before, but after an in-depth understanding, I found out how advanced and reasonable Zou Yu's measures in Fuyu City and Liaodong were!

It makes full use of the resources in hand, and at the same time, the people's labor and cultivation are not wasted, and the reasonable intercropping and multiple outputs enrich the people's lives and increase their income.

Of course, Zou Yu will not say that planting cash crops is no worse than grain, because it can't be done now, grain is the most important cash crop, but using barren slopes, field edges, front and back of houses, to carry out some planting that does not require too much effort, which is completely an additional income.

Han Qianxun asked himself, if it were him, would he be able to think of this? Can it make the people better off than they are now?

The answer is, of course, that he can't do it, not only him, many people have thought about it this way, and finally have to admit that some things really need talent, which is one of the reasons why the first people in Liaodong were willing to let Zou Yu take the lead.

Fuyu City chickens, ducks, geese and fish, breeding the most, as for pigs, although there are a lot, but vigorously promote, or in the last two years, because the appetite of pigs is too big, the people in the past can not afford to raise, most of the time, are free-range, let it find its own food.

Now Zou Yu was first brought forward by the government to carry out large-scale breeding, and established a breeding base in the form of semi-stocking.

Castrated pigs, good growth, and not so skinny, most of the time are in the mountains, in the field to find food, tired to sleep, unlike not castrated pigs, crazy running, fighting, are dry, there are no sheep obedient, this is also one of the reasons for the lack of people.

Pigs have one of the biggest benefits, though! High yield! Generally, pigs can give birth to three litters in two years, and give birth to several cubs at a time, at most more than 20, but it is very rare.

The general number is at least three, six, and nine are more common, and twelve is rare; A pig has a placenta, is three piglets, and each piglet has a fixed pig's milk, so if more than 12 pigs are born, they must be raised in captivity, or let other sows raise, otherwise they will starve to death.

Of course, this is the experience summed up by the breeding staff, according to Zou Yu's meaning, in addition to selecting the strongest to do breeding pigs, the rest of the boars are castrated, and more and more sows, the output of natural piglets, also more and more, at present, Fuyu City, Liaodong City, the two places have nearly 1,000 heads.

After the beginning of spring next year, the piglets in these two places can be sold to the people on a limited basis, according to Zou Yu's meaning, the government can completely do a piglet production business, so that the people can directly buy cubs, saving a lot of trouble.

In a certain range of semi-stocking, there is another advantage, because the pig will be within this range, all the plants, even the leaves and roots, eat cleanly, and will also arch the ground, so to speak, stocking for a year, only need to pick up the stones in the field, the next year can be planted here, because the pig has been cleared, plus it does not handle the complete manure, the land will become quite fertile.

Of course, this is just a rough way of use, pigs, Zou Yu is no stranger to this thing, the best way is to keep it in captivity, and to build a special pen for it, make a big manure tank under it, all year round, all rely on it to increase fertilizer for crops.

It is in recent years that Liaodong began to fertilize on a large scale and many times, so the crop yield has increased every year, which makes the people very happy, and they have gradually begun to get used to intensive farming.

Zou Yu relocated the people of the Central Plains to Liaodong City, and also had the intention of establishing an agricultural experimental base.

If you want to say that you are the best at planting, it must be the people of the Central Plains, they care about the crops the most, and they are also the people who are most willing to take care of the crops. For the harvest, you can guard the edge of the field all night, because there are too many wild beasts in various places now, so the garrison soldiers in each city also have a task, which is to hunt and drive away wild beasts for a period of time before the autumn harvest.

A simple garrison is easy to make the soldiers slack, especially in places that are not borders, and there are not so many bandits to exterminate them, and it is too wasteful to just maintain law and order.

People can't be too idle, and when they are idle, they are easy to breed ideas, and when they have too many ideas, they will get a little out of control, especially those who have a certain amount of power.

Therefore, for the garrison soldiers, the first turn is to plant vegetables, take care of fruits, and raise poultry, which can not only enrich their lives, but also exercise their physique and increase the joy of life; The second is to help the people and solve problems for the people.

Drive and hunt wild beasts, choose before the autumn harvest, because when the crops are ripe, wild beasts will come to steal and eat, and at the same time, it is also to avoid wanton hunting, so that the wild beasts will be extinct, and the hunters have no way to live.

Help the orphans and widows near the station, do what you can to help the people, establish a tall image step by step, and reverse the people's thinking that good men should not be soldiers.

First, the name of the pig is directly used as a pig.

Second, before the large-scale use of chemical fertilizers, pig manure was the most important fertilizer, and picking up manure was also a daily work of the people. When planting crops, they are often picked up from home to the mountains and watered with water from the uphill slopes.
