Chapter 129: A Great Harvest
Wei Zheng didn't go to Li Shimin, seeing that the millions of acres of land in Lantian County will usher in a bumper harvest of nearly 10 million quintals of grain, even if it is 30 taxes and 1, it is still hundreds of thousands of quintals of grain.
With these hundreds of thousands of loads of grain, the imperial court will not be considered a disaster this year, and many things can be carried out.
It's just that Wei Zheng got it from Li Shimin, and it is always a prevarication.
Li Shimin is not stupid, why should he hand over what he finally won for his daughter, Li Shimin still wants to open the gap in his son's fiefdom.
The imperial court is the imperial court, and the inner government is the inner government, which is clearly distinguished, and many times even the emperor does not want to do what he wants.
If the emperor wants to spend money, there is also a fixed amount, and the amount is generally not large, otherwise it will attract the collective opposition of the courtiers.
Earlier, Wei Zheng took the lead in saying that he would extract commercial tax in Li Shimin's restaurant, which made Li Shimin and his wife feel distressed, and now they want to come again, Li Shimin is naturally resolutely impossible to agree.
Wei Zheng stared at Yang Wenhua for a long time, and suddenly asked, "If the imperial court wants to buy some properties, what does Mr. Yang think?" ”
This time it was Yang Wenhua's turn to stare at Wei Zheng.
After being silent for a long time, Yang Wenhua said a little dryly: "If it is true, and it makes a certain family feel that something is promising, then a certain family is willing to lend money and food without interest, and is also willing to participate in it." ”
"So, Mr. Yang supports the imperial court's real estate?"
"This is natural, and the royal property Yang supports it, not to mention the imperial court.
But are you ready? ”
Wei Zheng was stunned when asked, and asked suspiciously: "What do you need to prepare?"
The old man just wanted to copy Mr. Yang's reservoir and the breeding on the edge of the reservoir in a suitable place.
This is a matter that does not cost much and is beneficial to the country and the people, so what kind of preparation is needed? ”
"The corresponding regulations."
"Regulations?"
You are a referee again, and you play football again, there are no corresponding regulations, how can you do it.
"After the monopoly of salt and iron, the means of making salt and iron have not moved forward, and after the craftsmen have been filled into the official register, the means of hundreds of workers have also stopped moving forward, what does Mr. Wei think is going on?"
"The old man just wants to accumulate some foundation for the court, why should Mr. Yang bring up the old things again, Mr. Yang wants to punish the world, not the old man can call the shots, if you have any requirements, please speak up."
The old man was shrewdly tight, Yang Wenhua was deflated for a while, leaned on the recliner, and said leisurely: "There are no requirements, you can take away the grain in the warehouse now."
When the warehouse is built, the people can also take most of it, and leave me enough manpower for the autumn harvest, and then the market will teach you how to make regulations. ”
"Let's talk about it when the time comes, I don't know how much Mr. Yang's remaining grain will be borrowed from the imperial court to be priced?"
"Let's settle it on a penny and a pound."
"Copper?"
"Get out, get out of here."
Copperplate? I'm afraid you're not crazy, ten pennies of paper money, one penny for you, and you actually plan to settle with copper plates.
"Hahaha."
Wei Zheng got up and flicked his wide sleeves, and said with a smile: "Just based on Mr. Yang's insult to the old man at this time, the old man will let Tang Shan settle with the old man at the price of copper plates." ”
"Raise your pillow and dream!"
After Wei Zheng took away the stored grain and manpower, it was the time when the corn was ripe and not old.
Yang Wenhua took advantage of this time to build a princess mansion covering an area of ten acres in the south of Lantian City, next to the Baqiao, and at the same time built an amusement park covering an area of twenty acres.
Although the main building of the princess's mansion is only the size of one acre, it has three floors and fifteen meters high, and standing on the top of the building, you can have a panoramic view of Lantian County and both sides of the Bahe River.
Even if you live in the room, you can see through the glass windows all around.
In the amusement park, there are not only fixed facilities such as swings and slides, but also transmission facilities such as merry-go-rounds and roller coasters after using the Bahe River to drive waterwheels.
After this harvest, the people of Lantian will become rich, and entertainment venues will naturally need to be built, not only children can have fun, but adults can still play.
After the amusement park was built, the third sister took her group of little sisters and stayed in it for several days before she took her mind back a little.
At this time, Yang Wenhua was busy with the autumn harvest and couldn't get out.
The weather is getting colder, but the corn is old and not dry, for the corn that needs to be retained, Yang Wenhua has to have people break the corn whole, hang it under the eaves in the room, and wait for it to dry slowly.
This method is just a drop in the bucket for 500,000 acres of land, and in the end, Yang Wenhua had to send an invitation to the entire Guanzhong.
Anyone who wants corn, can come to Lantian to choose, with a belt of fresh corn a copper plate a catty, can feed cattle and sheep and can be used as firewood corn stalks for free, how much corn to sell, how many corn stalks to give.
Although the farmers in Guanzhong do not lack these things, the big families lack them, the imperial court also lacks them, and the people in the city also need them.
Corn is so high-yielding and the price is right, naturally there are people who need seeds, and since Yang Wenhua sent out the invitation, countless vehicles and ships have sailed into Lantian.
For the big families who came from the Bahe River by boat, Yang Wenhua directly sold them pieces of whole land according to how many acres of corn land.
For large families who come with oxen and wagons, Yang Wenhua calculates them according to rows and rows of corn.
For the poor households who generally live in the city, they use a scale to weigh it.
An acre of land is only about two dollars, not only a few thousand catties of raw corn, but also corn stalks of the same weight.
Everyone felt that they had taken advantage of it, and Yang Wenhua was also very satisfied when he saw patches of corn fields vacated.
The only dissatisfaction may be the grain merchants in Chang'an, with Yang Wenhua's bumper corn harvest here, and the lower-priced cabbage is also on the market at the same time, Chang'an's grain prices have fallen again and again, and have fallen out of a new level.
Usually four or five wen a catty, in disaster years dozens of wen a catty of grain, at this time no one wants two or three wen a catty.
The smell of boiled corn wafted throughout Chang'an, mixed with the smell of cabbage.
Yang Wenhua didn't care, for the money lost on corn, Yang Wenhua found it back on the more high-yield potatoes.
After entertaining the family for a few meals, shredded potatoes, potato stew, and mashed potatoes, Yang Wenhua took out nearly 10,000 acres of potato planting fields at the price of ten yuan per acre, and gave a book of potato planting skills.
The big families in Chang'an City have a lot of farms all over the world, and the seeds they need are immeasurable, even if they know that they are at a loss, they have to buy some from Yang Wenhua.
If you don't buy it from Yang Wenhua now, and wait until next year after a bumper harvest, then you will be a year behind others.
