Chapter 788, immigrating to the prairie people to Australia

Previous Chapter

"We are also doing ready-to-wear garments, and the business is okay, but my father ordered the construction of a new factory when I went to Nanyang."

Hearing Liu Jin's words, Wang Shouren said helplessly.

The clothes on Daming's side are basically bought by themselves to make clothes, and those who have conditions go to tailor shops and find people to tailor them, and there are few ready-to-wear clothes to sell.

Wang Shouren saw this opportunity, and also opened a garment factory, thinking that the business would not be too good, who knew that the business was very hot.

It is inevitable that the clothes that are made by themselves are not suitable for the size or design is unreasonable and not good-looking.

The clothes made by the Wang family's garment factory are professional after all, and the colors, materials, designs, etc. are naturally better than those made by many people.

Once the ready-to-wear was launched, it was also a rapid sell-out, not only very popular here in Daming, but also sold to North Korea and the Japanese Kingdom, so that the Wang family also made enough profits in this piece.

The cloth that the Wang family's own factory prevented did not even need to be exported, and it was enough to supply it to their own garment factory.

"I see~"

Liu Jin immediately understood and nodded slightly, then frowned and said: "It's not that the output of cotton and wool is not enough, but because there are too many new factories and too much demand for raw materials." ”

"Now it's a problem, without wool and cotton, all the new textile mills will go out of business."

"Then there is no way to do it, there are too many new factories."

"Especially here in the south, there are thousands of new factories that have invested in the construction of factories this year alone, large and small factories, all over the south of the Yangtze River, because of the sharp drop in grain prices, many places use fertile land to grow mulberry trees for silkworm raising."

Wang Gui next to him also said helplessly.

"This is not good, how many factories, related to all aspects, if because of the scarcity of cotton and wool, the price of soaring, resulting in their loss, this will also have a huge impact on our Ming Dynasty."

Liu Jin groaned slightly, shook his head slightly, and said.

These new capitalists in the north have tasted the sweetness and have grown rapidly, and these people in the south have really begun to integrate into the era of great navigation, great colonization and new capital this year.

We can't let them be treated as a slap in the face as soon as they enter, which can easily discourage their enthusiasm and, more importantly, hinder the germination and development of capitalism in the Ming Dynasty.

"There are only two ways to solve this problem."

"One is to reduce demand, and the other is to increase supply."

"It's not enough to reduce demand now, it can only increase supply."

Wang Shouren also nodded slightly, thought about it and said: "This year, I have planted cotton on a large scale in many places in Daming, but it is still unable to meet the needs of the market. ”

"Everyone can hold on for a while, and in the first half of next year, when everyone's cotton is used up, and in winter, the sheep in the northern grasslands don't produce wool, then there will really be problems."

"How's the cotton here in the Western Regions?"

After thinking about it, Liu Jin asked this Wang Gui under Wang Shouren again.

"The cotton yield here in the Western Regions is very high, but the Warat Junggar Department that controls the Western Regions knows that our Ming Dynasty has a high demand for cotton, and it is also deliberately too high the price of cotton, plus the distance in the Western Regions is far away, and the transportation is extremely difficult, and the price of cotton in the Western Regions is several times the price of our Daming cotton."

"With the cotton of the Western Regions, there is no profit at all, and even the wool in the Western Regions is much more correct than the wool of the northern grasslands controlled by our Ming Dynasty."

Wang Gui thought about it and immediately replied: "But in addition to the Western Regions, now there are many commercial houses in Tianzhu that are purchasing cotton, and the cotton output in Tianzhu is also very high, the key is that the price is very cheap." ”

"Western Regions~"

"Warat, Dzungar~"

"Tianzhu!"

After hearing this, Liu Jin immediately smiled and said: "Zhengchou can't find an excuse to clean up the Western Regions, this year we have conquered the Nanyang region in the south, and next year it will be our turn to use force against the Western Regions. ”

The Western Regions has always been an extremely important cotton producing area, and in later generations, Xinjiang's cotton not only has a high yield, but also a very good quality, and long-staple cotton is world-renowned.

In addition, these countries in Central Asia in later generations were also important producers of cotton, and the climate and geography of this area were too suitable for the growth of cotton.

In addition, these places in the Western Regions have a large number of high-quality pastures, and they are also important livestock areas, and they are also extremely important wool producing areas.

In the past, I always felt that the Ming Dynasty could not find the desire and motivation to actively expand to the outside world, but now it seems that there may not be any need to do anything by itself, and soon, these emerging textile capitalists of the Ming Dynasty will promote the Ming Dynasty to use troops in the Western Regions.

Daming needs cotton and wool from the Western Regions too much.

"Want to fight the Western Regions?"

Zhu Houzhao, who had been listless, suddenly came to his senses when he heard this, and asked excitedly.

"Ahem, Your Highness, there is nothing to do, the imperial court has just conquered Nanyang this year, and it still needs to be cultivated for a year or two."

Liu Jin hurriedly said.

"You just said that you want to fight the Western Regions."

Zhu Houzhao said very seriously.

"No~"

"Lao Wang, did I just talk about this?"

Liu Jin asked Wang Shouren with a confused expression.

"yes, yes, we're talking about wool and cotton."

Wang Shouren naturally understands what Liu Jin means, Zhu Houzhao likes to march and fight the most, if he really lets him know, maybe he will run out secretly, and if something happens at that time, it will really be over.

"Hmph~"

"If you want to lie to me, there is no door."

"However, if you fight the Western Regions, you will be in the Western Regions, I heard that there are still a lot of good things in the Western Regions, and it is long overdue to fight the Western Regions."

Zhu Houzhao rolled his eyes and smiled, trying to deceive me?

I don't look at who I am, but I am thinking about how I will get into it if I really fight the Western Regions next year.

"Ahem, ahem, in fact, we are discussing the relocation of the northern prairie people to Australia."

"This newly discovered Australia is very large, no worse than our Ming mainland, in the southeast of Australia, the water and grass are abundant, the land is vast and sparsely populated, which is very suitable for the development of animal husbandry."

"This grassland is located in the north of our Daming capital, in fact, it is not suitable for excessive grazing, once the grassland is degraded, it will become a desert in the future, so we must continue to reduce the number and scale of grazing in the grassland province."

"The best way is naturally to move the grassland people to Australia, and the news from the Golden Continent has also been found here, and on the South Golden Continent, an extremely vast grassland has also been found, which is very suitable for grazing."

"I am ready to propose to Your Majesty that some of the prairie people be relocated to Australia and the Southern Golden Continent, where they will graze, and the scale of breeding and grazing will be expanded, and there will be more wool in the future."

Liu Jin thought about it, rolled his eyes and said.

"Is it possible to migrate the prairie people to Australia and the Southern Golden Continent?"

When Wang Shouren heard this, he immediately became interested, and immediately asked people to take a map and study it carefully.

"What's not to do?"

"Australia and the Golden Continent are vast and sparsely populated, with vast grasslands and abundant water and grass, making them the most suitable places for grazing."

"But I also know what you're worried about, we not only have to move the grassland people to Australia, but also to move more Han people to these places, and establish a large pasture in Australia and the Golden Continent, and the designated pasture, and change the nomadic grazing to fixed grazing."

"Naturally, everything can be solved."

Liu Jin said with a smile.

Just kidding, in later generations, Australia and Argentina, which were the world's pastures and meat warehouses, and North America's bald eagle, which was also the world's largest beef producer.

These places are too suitable for the development of animal husbandry.

Wang Shouren's concern is whether they will resurrect in these places and re-establish their empire in the sea after moving the steppe people to this place.

This is even more worry-free, when they go overseas, they will only rely more on the Ming Dynasty, not to mention, with the development of the Ming Dynasty, guns and artillery are becoming more and more powerful, and you are still counting on whipping the world with war horses and scimitars?

If you don't even have this self-confidence and strength, then what else is the Ming Dynasty talking about colonizing the world?

"If Australia and the Golden Continent can establish a large number of farms and raise a large number of cattle and sheep, it is indeed to see an increase in wool production."

"And the climate of the southern hemisphere is just the opposite of our northern hemisphere, we are winter, they are summer, and we don't have to worry about not having wool in the winter."

Wang Shouren thought about it and nodded and said, expressing his approval.

He also knows the situation in Australia, the Ming Morning Post has a detailed description of Australia, and now there are many treasure hunters in Australia looking for gold, silver and copper mines.

Australia is close to the South Seas, it is very convenient to go to Australia, there are islands along the way, and it is very safe.

"Go, go, go to the palace to find Your Majesty."

"It's winter soon, and while the temperature is not very cold yet, maybe you can hurry up and move some to Australia first."

Liu Jin smiled, and directly pulled Lao Wang and Zhu Houzhao to the palace in a hurry.

Moving the grassland people to Australia is a big deal, and you need to take into account all kinds of things, and the most important thing is to take into account the emotions of the grassland people.

Moving from the grasslands in the north to Australia, where I don't know the end of the world and the corner of the sea, it is estimated that few grassland people are willing to go, but it is definitely not possible to move them out.

Fortunately in the past few years, after several wars, the men on the grassland have almost died, and the rest are women and children, but after a long time, coupled with abundant materials, the grassland population will definitely swell rapidly, and it will still face this problem at that time.

It's better to take advantage of the fact that now, when the majesty of the Ming Dynasty is in full swing, to move people out.

If you go out early, you have to slowly form a rule, and you will naturally get used to migrating out.

And some people have migrated to Australia and the Golden Continent, and after discovering that this is indeed a paradise, they will naturally have no opinions, and even actively cooperate with them to move out.

In this way, the grassland problem can be easily solved, and although it is a bit difficult and problematic now, it can be completely controlled and solved.
