The early winter is coming, the weather is getting colder, but the business in Zhennanbao is getting more and more prosperous.

Especially in the leather shops in the city, there is an endless stream of people who come to buy sheepskins, after all, coarse linen clothes are not very hardy, and who doesn't want to have a warm winter with a whole sheepskin coat.

People in other territories of Nanhua, but almost all those who have a little surplus food at home want to change into a thick sheepskin.

There is also a special fire that is also sold, and that is a clay pot for baking fire.

This is something that Zhao Hao didn't expect, because the Taihua Department will also burn pottery, and this clay pot for baking fire is not very difficult to make, people must be able to make it themselves, why do you want to come to Zhennanbao to change it?

He asked the people of the pottery shop to inquire, and the reason was actually very simple, because they didn't do it so well, and besides, they thought it was very troublesome to make this thing.

It turned out that they still kneaded the clay embryo by hand, and when they kneaded the clay embryo, there was no rotating wooden plate underneath.

With such primitive means, it is really difficult to make a large pottery plate, and the larger the thing made, the more ugly it becomes.

Hao Tianling's approach is different, because Zhao Hao likes to use wooden molds.

A lot of pottery, that is directly pressed out of the mold, such as this pottery plate, a pile of good clay thrown into the mold, and then sprinkled with some water, and then pressed hard, it is simple and beautiful to make.

To put it bluntly, it's a matter of processing methods.

It's like knife coins and horn coins, if you don't use a mold to make a rough embryo in advance, and directly use a piece of pig iron to make it, it will be troublesome, even if there are more than 200 skilled blacksmiths, it is estimated that it will be difficult to make 2,000 knife coins a day, 20,000, that is not to think about it.

In short, with Zhao Hao's experience, Haotian Territory has advantages in many things that other territories do not have, and the business in this town Nanbao will naturally become more and more prosperous.

However, no matter how prosperous the business is, Zhao Hao can't stay here forever, after all, his main goal is not to make crazy money and become the richest man in Taihua Continent.

His main goal is to improve his strength frantically and become one of the top masters in the Taihua Continent, and he can't improve his strength if he stays in Zhennan Fort all the time, he has to go to the Nanban Mountains to hunt.

At this time, the business in Zhennanbao has gradually entered the right track, and there is no need for him to stay here and watch, so he discussed with Ji Rushuang and decided to go to Xiqin Castle to see the Xiqin Hou couple and Ji Wei and his wife rushed to the Netherworld Valley and prepared to start hunting.

On this day, together with Ji Rushuang, he took more than ten guards and a few carts of gifts, and went straight to Xiqin Fort.

There was nothing wrong along the way, but he saw a strange scene.

This winter, there are many people ploughing the land or clearing the wasteland.

Perhaps, these clansmen of the Western Qin Collar want to open up a few more pieces of land, get more food in the coming year, and go to Zhennanbao to exchange more good things.

These people are digging hard, and they are sweating in the winter, but their faces are full of excitement.

Zhao Hao looked at their busy figures, but suddenly remembered something in his mind.

This thing was rare in his previous life, and he had only seen it on TV, so he never remembered it.

So, what exactly is this thing?

This thing is actually very simple, it is an ox plough for ploughing the fields.

Although the ox plough is not a high-tech thing, it can greatly improve the efficiency of food production.

You know, even if a person has the strength, digging the ground with a hoe will be tiring, generally speaking, without an ox plow, a young man can plant ten acres of land, it is amazing, no matter how much, it is estimated that people can be tired to death.

This may be the reason why there are still a lot of wasteland in Nanhua, because people's strength is limited, in the absence of special means to stimulate, everyone must be to fill their stomachs for the purpose of farming, at most leave a little surplus grain in case of accidents, to people tired and desperate to farm, one person planted more than ten acres of land, that is almost impossible.

In other words, even if the Great Elder of Nanhua encouraged people from other territories to open up wasteland and farm, it is estimated that there will not be much surplus, after all, no matter how good the things in Zhennanbao are, it is not worth the hard work.

During this period of time, the reason why Zhennanbao's business is so prosperous may be that people have been supporting their surpluses for several years or even decades, and once these surpluses are consumed, it is really hard to say whether they can exchange them for enough food. :（/

100,000 people, if you just eat food, you will need at least 20 million catties a year, why do people desperately plant so much food for you!

It seems that this ox plough must be made, and it must be spread throughout South China as soon as possible.

Question, a cow is worth a lot of grain, plus an ox plow, how many people in Nanhua can afford it?

This question is really a bit troublesome.

Zhao Hao thought all the way and finally came up with a good method.

They brought so many gifts to see the Xi Qin Hou couple and Ji Wei and his wife, they were naturally happy, after everyone had a good time, Zhao Hao seized the opportunity, pulled the Xi Qin Hou aside, and said solemnly: "Father-in-law, the son-in-law has something I want to discuss with you." ”

This is a strange name.

The Marquis of Xi Qin was stunned for a moment, and then he was curious: "What's the matter?" ”

Zhao Hao explained carefully: "That's the case, the little son-in-law thought of a way to plough the land with cattle, if everyone adopts this method, there is no need to work hard to plough the land, just drive the cattle to the field to plough the land." In this way, not only do people save effort, but they also have more land to plough and more grain to produce. ”

Can cattle still plough the land?

This common-sense question, the Marquis of Western Qin is like listening to a mythical story.

He couldn't help but be dumbfounded: "How do cattle plow the land?" ”

Zhao Hao continued to explain: "This is very simple, just make something similar to a hoe, hang the reins behind the ox, and then use the whip to drive the ox forward. ”

This kind of scene is really incomprehensible to people who don't have relevant knowledge.

Fortunately, the Marquis of Western Qin can ride a horse, and he knows what reins and whips.

In this way, cattle can really plow the land.

Question, how many people have changed the cow?

The Marquis of Western Qin frowned and said, "You all offer 20,000 catties of rice for a horse, and if you have a cow, there will be no less, right?" Although your method is good, how many people can afford to exchange it for cattle? ”

When Zhao Hao heard this, he said lightly: "This is easy to say, as long as you are willing to guarantee, all the clansmen in your territory have no problem with a cow in each family, a cow, plus the ox plough used to plough the land behind, we only accept 10,000 catties of rice, this 10,000 catties of rice, you can give it in a few years, as long as you guarantee it." ”

And such a good thing?

The Marquis of Xi Qin was a little worried: "I guarantee that there is no problem, the question is, what if people can't give this 10,000 catties of rice for a few years, is it true that I really drove people away?" ”

Zhao Hao smiled slightly: "Father-in-law, you can rest assured, 10,000 catties of rice, no problem." You think, if there are no cattle to plough the land, how much land can be planted by a young man, if there are cows, they can more than double the land, after all, the strength of a cow is much stronger than that of an ordinary young man. ”

This does make sense, Xi Qinhou thought about it for a while, and finally nodded: "Okay, I'll vouch, you prepare the cattle and what kind of ox plows, and you will send 10,000 sets over in the spring of next year." ”
