Cao Ruomu can be regarded as having figured it out.

Since the family sent her to the Han Mansion, the family must know about the things here.

Even her own father has made a choice, what else does she have to say.

Han Jiang left, and he also went to attend the second half of the banquet.

Compared with Lin'an or Wancheng, the cheapest wine in Zhancheng is only 50 wen per jar, and one jar is ten catties. A set of wine sieves was given to each jar, because it was cloudy wine.

The price of the wine will be more expensive if it is steamed twice.

The price of the high-quality wine that has been steamed many times is more expensive than that of Lin'an, but the so-called good wine of Lin'an cannot be put on the table here, and the grade is not enough.

After the banquet, even if it was late at night, the meeting still had to be held.

Today's banquet is limited to alcohol, even Hu Zaixing, who did not attend the meeting, only drank half a catty of sake.

Late at night, on the beach.

Han Jiang took advantage of the firelight to look at the income and expenditure reports of the two cities of Zhancheng and Jiaozhi last year.

The yield is very good.

After reading the report, Han Jiang said: "This matter is not authentic, but for the sake of our Huaxia, you have to be the bad guy." I am now asking for a fivefold increase in hemp production, a doubling of grain production and a twenty-fold increase in sugar production next year. The rest is discretionary. Then, we will make every effort to develop the consumer market in Cochin and Champa City, which is to give people here the opportunity and possibility to spend more money to buy our goods. ”

Zhao Xuexia was puzzled: "In this way, it will increase the income of the local people and improve their lives. ”

Han Jiang was silent for a moment: "How to say it, this is called soft colonization." The essence of colonization is to plunder local resources and sell goods. ”

Colonize.

Everyone laughed straight away.

Liu Huai laughed: "Let's let a group of people who don't even have clothes to put on, there are still a few at home, and now they can eat meat, isn't this virtue, we don't understand what colonization, what we do is a good deed, this is a great good deed to glorify the ancestors." ”

Han Jiang himself laughed.

Maybe Liu Huai is right.

Bring a new and better life to the locals,

Let them have a house to live in, to have money and a life, to have clothes to wear, and meat to eat.

Well, let's go ahead.

Han Jiang was about to speak, but Zhao Xuexia said first: "I think that five times the hemp production is too little, ten times." I predicted that a lot of wasteland in this area of the Red River Delta has not been developed, and we have many prisoners of war and enslavement, and pulling away the wasteland can increase at least 150,000 to 180,000 mu of new land next year, so the grain can be higher. ”

"Yes, we have a lot of prisoners of war, and we can have more, ......" Liu Huai said and went to find a map.

I didn't find a map, so I knelt on the beach and drew one.

Han Jiang said that he basically couldn't understand this kind of abstract painting-like map, but Meng Zongzheng looked at it very seriously.

"Here, here. Several of the great Cham nobles are gathering their troops and horses, and their goal is not to bring back the Cham Po, I'm sure, because I have sent out a lot of fine work, and I have also bought hundreds of Cham people. Their goal is to sneak up on our granaries and cloth silos, and this is the place where we prepare to go south and occupy the Mekong Delta, which no one controls at the moment. ”

Meng Zongzheng pointed to the ghost-like lines on the beach and asked: "So, there are many rivers here, and there are mountains in the west, so it is indeed a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but what about here, is this a big river?" ”

"Yes."

"Can you get around?"

"I don't know, someone has been sent to explore the way, and a hundred ordinary linen cloths are rushing to fight for their lives to explore the way."

Meng Zongzheng touched his chin: "Go around." ”

Liu Huai didn't answer: "I'm going north to return to Lin'an, it's your business, but I know that they have transferred 100,000 people alone, so there are more soldiers and horses, and they believe that five times the number of troops will definitely make me unbearable." ”

Meng Zongzheng laughed heartily: "It was written in that military book that fighting a war is purely based on numbers. ”

Han Jiang poured a basin of cold water on the side: "Here, the original firearms often fail, and there is too much rain. ”

Meng Zongzheng patted his chest: "There is me." After making a promise, Meng Zongzheng asked: "Governor Zhao, is it useful to add 100,000 prisoners of war?" ”

"Yes, our abacalist forest is a labor-intensive job."

"That's done, I think I can increase my income a little more next year."

A few people gossip, next year, Jiaozhi and Zhancheng, the material standards proposed by Han Jiang have been increased by more than three times. Just the dried bananas that are not very sweet, Zhao Xuexia promised to ensure the supply of tens of millions of quintals next year to ensure the supply of the north.

Han Jiang also didn't understand why the bananas here were not as sweet as they were before he crossed over.

In turn, Zhao Xuexia asked: "Lord, I want to ask, can the supply of two million quintals of porcelain be guaranteed next year, and whether there is no less than five million feet of linen cloth for clothing?" Specifically, here's a list. ”

Han Jiang originally planned how to use this place as a dumping ground for goods.

Who would have thought, the demand here is amazing.

It costs 2 million quintals of porcelain.

According to the current household porcelain, a set of sixty-four pieces, and the weight of the lower porcelain is the weight of half a load, four million sets.

Are there so many people here?

Han Jiang asked.

There was nothing wrong with Zhao Xuexia's answer, but I just heard Zhao Xuexia answer: "Look, you usually use one set for dinner, one set for guests, and one set with red for festivals." Marriage is required, there is no standard set of porcelain at the moment, you see that the woman's family can be willing, and some families are richer, they dare to think of a hundred and eight pieces of sets, and there are thirty-six pieces of porcelain in the set. ”

Liu Huai interjected: "Well, I guess, either tonight or tomorrow morning, Lei Feed will come to Brother Jiang with a full head." ”

Han Jiang looked puzzled: "Why?" ”

Liu Huai replied: "There are too many men in the Dayue Kingdom, this is not what we did, it is that the king of Dayue kept building palaces a few years ago, and there were too many strong people who were forcibly requisitioned, which led to a large-scale rebellion, and too many young men died." It is difficult for women to marry, not because of the dowry on our side, but because there are no men. ”

"Yes, yes." Han Jiang said that he understood this.

Liu Huai continued: "I have soldiers and horses on my side, and my family members have them, and according to the etiquette of our Great Song Dynasty, the housewife of the family does not agree, or if the age is less than forty and already has a baby, it is not possible to take a concubine." Occasionally, there are a few, and I am in charge, basically giving the woman a set of porcelain, four pieces of cloth, or a few feet of silk. This is a bride price, and it is also wanted. ”

"Well, well, we're going to give the bride price."

Liu Huai smiled: "Lao Lei, what does he have, I'm afraid he doesn't even have a change of clothes, or the military uniform he wore when he escaped from the palace." ”

"Well, it seems."

Zhao Xuexia said: "Hu Tongzhi found that General Lei had no money and his subordinates had no dowry, so he was estimated to beat him." ”

"Here, have a drink." Lu You didn't get involved in these young people's affairs, he just listened to it and laughed very happily.

Shi Ziyan accompanied him for a drink, but he just laughed.
