"However, with so many condiments, the cost will go up, if the price is too expensive, ordinary people can't afford it, will it affect the market?"

Lin Xiao looked at the note with the words "Dried Tempeh Fish" written on the clay pot, and said worriedly.

"Fortunately, because this is a trash fish, the total cost is only 10% more expensive, if you make less money, the price of all kinds can be equal,"

Yu Gui replied with a smile, "If the sales volume is good in the future, the output can go up, and the price can be lowered." ”

Anchovies are delicious but the output is not large, although this canned trash fish is more expensive for condiments, but the catch of trash fish is large, and the purchase price is much cheaper than the seasonal catch of anchovies, if the sales volume can be increased in the future, he is very confident to open up the market at a low price.

"Yes, it's good to make a small profit, don't be too greedy, you just have to open up the firepower, if the restaurant can't be sold, our troops will underwrite it for you for the time being, and ...... in the future More and more ordinary people can afford to eat, so they don't have to worry about not making money. ”

Lin Xiao encouraged him, he not only had to remind Yu Gui that he couldn't rush for quick success, but also cheered him up.

Those gentry and wealthy businessmen who spend money and often go to restaurants, eat is to eat face, and order only expensive food, not the right one, which has been the same throughout the ages.

If they don't like to eat trash fish, then take the civilian route, so many people, even if they just buy a little during the New Year's holidays, it is a huge sale.

"It's easy to fight the world, but it's hard to rule the world."

In Lin Xiao's mind, his long-term plan is divided into four steps, of which the third step is the most difficult.

First of all, the urgent need was to quickly recover the territory with strong military strength and drive the barbaric Manchus out of the Central Plains; The second step is to solve the problem of people's livelihood, in order to feed everyone, we must vigorously increase the yield of crops and gradually improve the efficiency of agricultural production; In the third step, while focusing on eliminating maladministration, cracking down on the gentry and the powerful, and striving to practice fair politics, it is time to develop industry and commerce and invigorate the economy. Fourth, with sufficient financial resources, we can build a strong national defense, expand the territory and rise in the East, and ensure that the land of China will never be enslaved by the Western powers who have entered the Age of Discovery.

Fighting a war is Lin Xiao's strength, but he has no idea how to govern Nuoda's country.

In addition to the issue of political system, on the premise of not knocking out the bones of the people, how to quickly make money and rapidly increase the country's financial resources made Lin Xiao feel a lot of headaches.

There are many ways to make money, issuing banknotes early, exploiting the people through financial means, and taking the road of making the country rich and the people poor, Lin Xiao's heart is resistant.

The means he is more willing to consider are to vigorously develop industry and commerce at home, increase employment and revitalize domestic demand; Externally, they will expand their trade routes and make more money from crooked nuts.

In the future, these light industrial products such as food and glass products can be developed overseas along with traditional goods such as silk, ceramics, and tea.

The richer the commodities that can be obtained, the more popular overseas trade will be, and at that time, as the Ming Dynasty of the Eastern Empire, will be able to attract more Western merchants, when a steady stream of gold and silver poured into the Ming Dynasty, why worry about not being able to feed less than 100 million people in the country.

Of course, strategic products such as guns, cement, iron and steel, and smokeless gunpowder cannot be exported, but this is a guarantee for the West to maintain its superiority in the generation gap, and is the basis for China's rise and rapid growth into an industrialized military power and a deterrent to the great powers.

This is called a technological blockade, and Lin Xiao, who traveled through later generations, has been exposed to all kinds of blockades of New China by Western powers all day long.

"Come and don't be rude!"

Now, when God has put a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in front of him, how can he not treat him in the same way as others?

……

After returning to the barracks with a few cans of sea fish, Lin Xiao never forgot the graphite mine in Chenzhou, so he immediately ordered the signal corps to call Zhu Yujia, who was on the front line in Hengyang.

Since taking Yongzhou, Baoqing and other places, Zhu Yujia divided the three main battalions into three, two of which set off from Yongzhou and Baoqing respectively to Hengyang, and the other main battalion went directly from Baoqing to the north secretly, and attacked the periphery of Changsha in advance, and has now reached the territory of Xiangxiang County.

Zhu Yu Jia's idea is very simple - "encircle the point and send reinforcements"!

If the Qing army goes south from Changsha to reinforce, then fight an ambush, if the Qing army does not dare to go south, it is better, first monitor it, eat one pig, and then kill the other.

At present, the main force of the first battalion of the Suining Independent Regiment has recovered Xinhua County, Baoqing Prefecture, and the second battalion remaining in Wugang is seizing the time to recruit and expand the army, and at the same time guarding the prisoners and digging local iron and coal mines.

I wish Yu Jiabu a smooth progress, Lin Xiao should have been relieved, but when he called him today, he was asked to try to transfer an independent battalion out and escort some of the captives south to Chenzhou to station.

In the Chenzhou area, it was originally fought by Jiao Lian's army and the independent battalion of Dayao Mountain, but at present, their main force has already gone north to Ji'an, and only a few hundred people have been left in Chenzhou, waiting for Zhang Tongchang's new army to go north to receive it.

Lin Xiao was worried about the graphite mines in Chenzhou and Guiyang, and decided not to hand over this place to the official army, so he asked Zhu Yujia, who was closest to him, to send troops to station, and at the same time immediately started to open the mine.

Last night, he had ventilated this idea with Qu Shiqian, and asked Qu Shiqian to send his entourage to send an order to Zhang Tongchang, hoping that after Zhang Tongchang's new army went north from Guilin, it would be best to ignore the war in Hunan and go directly east to Jiangxi to reinforce Jiao Lian's army.

Among the four counteroffensive teams, Lin Xiao was always the most worried about Jiao Lian's army, which was mainly an officer army with cold weapons and was not very advantageous in battle with the Qing army.

However, there were tens of thousands of cavalry under Jiao Lian's command, and the marching speed was extremely fast, and the area around southern Gan was the emptiest place for the Qing army.

Jiangxi is the hinterland of the Qing army, and once it is counterattacked by a large number of Qing troops, it may be counter-surrounded, and the slightest mistake will cause heavy losses.

However, Jiao Lianjun was the only one who did not have a radio station, so Lin Xiao knew very little about his progress, which exacerbated his anxiety.

Therefore, after weighing it repeatedly, Lin Xiao felt that only by letting Zhang Tongchang's troops directly enter Jiangxi and fill the vacuum behind Jiao Lian's troops could prevent Jiao Lian from being copied by the Qing army when he besieged Nanchang.

Just finished the call with Zhu Yujia, Liu Xulei, who was in Fuzhou, suddenly took the initiative to call over, Lin Xiao sighed in his heart, what he had been worried about may have become a fact.

Sure enough, Liu Xulei brought two extremely bad news.

After Liu Xulei captured Shaoguan, he immediately waved his army north, all the way over the mountains and mountains to Fuzhou, the vanguard battalion had won the first battle, not only the empty troops of Ganzhou and Fuzhou have all been recovered, and the main force of the battalion has firmly held Shanguan, since then the Fujian Qing army can no longer send a single soldier to Jiangxi.

After judging the situation, Liu Xulei found that all the main forces of the Qing army in Jiangxi were retreating in the north, so he immediately made a decision and sent all the two battalions of the main force to Raozhou, ordering him to capture Raozhou City and Xianxia Pass within ten days, and completely cut off the land communication between the Qing army in Zhejiang and Fujian.

However, when Liu Xulei sent the baggage battalion to Ji'an to transport grain, he found that Jiao Lian's main force had already gone down the Ganjiang River to Nanchang and became a veritable lone army.

Liu Xulei immediately sent a reconnaissance company to the direction of Nanchang to reconnoiter the situation, but got an even worse news - two days ago, a large number of Qing troops had just passed west from the south bank of Poyang Lake.

If Jiao Lian had already stationed troops under Nanchang City at this moment, then this Qing army happened to appear behind Jiao Lian.

This is not a coincidence!

Three words immediately appeared in Lin Xiao's mind: Hong Chengchou!
