Chapter 439: What an obstacle

Even if the sweet potato potato was not made up by He Wenrui, as the first official to popularize it on a large scale, in the history books written by scholars, the reputation will directly catch up with the major bachelors in the current center, and even surpass it.

At this moment, for He Wenrui, the temptation to leave a name in history even exceeds himself, as well as the future of the teacher, is that he secretly decides that as long as Zhiwen's request is not the kind that he can't do at all, he has to deal with it.

“... But it's not just what kind of grain you use to grow and you can have so much harvest, Lord He. Zhiwen does not intend to shy away from his role in it, "Only after my screening and cultivation, can there be such a high yield, if not, most of the harvest is not more than Erer, if you don't believe it, you can ask our people in the mountains, we have a piece of land before, so we will use it to verify, and the yield per mu is only 100 catties." ”

Zhiwen's words are modest, in fact, if the grain is not polished and gilded in the system warehouse, it will definitely not have such a stunning performance, Sun Kewang's field, the grain that grows naturally in the outside world, if it is planted with the grain grown from the seeds after the light, what the consequences are, Zhiwen himself does not know.

He Wenrui was obviously relieved, at this time, he couldn't even do it without being happy and angry, in his opinion, this is not a matter at all, if this matter is true, it means that Zhiwen really has the ability, if it is false, he will not pursue it, it is nothing more than a means of self-protection for this young man, no matter what, it is enough to fully cooperate with Zhiwen.

"There's no need to ask, nephew, I can naturally trust your words." He Wenrui said, "I wonder if the virtuous nephew is willing to push this artifact to benefit the general public and become the current new generation of Shennong?" ”

"A new generation of Shennong? The adults laughed, but the kid didn't dare to be ashamed, and he didn't have this ambition. What Zhiwen was thinking at the moment was that if it was really pushed forward, he would make a fortune by relying on seed fees, and he was afraid that he would be poked in the backbone by many people, especially those scholars who had the right to speak and were exempted from paying taxes.

"Promote these two things, for the benefit of the world, I do what I want, don't hide it from my lord, before you came, our trading company had already started to work near Zhuoluji, but..."

Zhiwen's divine turning point came again, and when he heard it, He Wenrui's heart was tense, and he wanted to swear, not to treat people like this, but he was helpless, who told people to hold a big killing weapon.

“... However, there are some obstacles in this matter. Zhiwen finished his words in one breath this time.

"What's in the way? Virtuous nephew, don't worry, this official will never stand idly by, and will definitely do his best to help. When He Wenrui said this, he didn't feel that his tone was like showing loyalty.

"Lord He, it takes a lot of effort for me to screen and cultivate seeds, you have also seen it here in Zhuolu Mountain, and there are so many people, since it is a trading company, in business, I have to make some money on the seed fee?" Zhiwen asked rhetorically, not answering Lord Zhizhou's words.

"It's... Nature is as it should be. He Wenrui only hesitated for a moment, and then affirmed Zhiwen's words, there is nothing to say, it is normal for businessmen to say that it is normal, "It's just this kind of sub-fee, how much does the virtuous nephew plan to charge, how to collect it?" ”

Zhiwen said that he was in Zhuolu Ji's strategy, He Wenrui heard that the harvest was only thirty percent at most, and he exchanged other grains for less, and he was most worried that the lion of Zhuolu Trading Company would open his mouth, and the cost would be too high, so that people wanted to plant but couldn't afford to plant, three percent? It's really kind, but it makes him have a good impression of Zhiwen.

It's just that He Wenrui is not optimistic, he knows that Zhiwen is young, and some things are probably not very clear, so he said tentatively, "Virtuous nephew, can you reduce the cost a little more, this thirty percent, I'm afraid it's still higher." ”

Zhiwen smiled when he heard this, "Lord He, your reaction is no different from those townspeople in Zhuoluji, they also feel that the cost is high, this is one of the obstacles, it is because of the determination to plant yet, but if the cost of thirty percent is reduced again, our trading company will be unprofitable, and we can't let us post it." ”

Although for Zhiwen, there is no cost for the system warehouse to open up the grain, but this does not mean that the seeds can be provided at a low price, at least in the early stage, you have to send people to guide the people how to plant, these expenses are also inputs in the final analysis, and if you don't use this to make yourself develop and grow as soon as possible, how to deal with the tigers and wolves who come in one after another?

He Wenrui was silent, only contemplative.

Fortunately, Song Xiance came out in time to relieve the siege, "Lord He, are you afraid that after the people pay the rent and land endowment, there will be little left, and they will not be able to pay this fee?" ”

He Wenrui nodded, sighed and said, "There are thirty percent of the rent, there are fifty percent, and the land endowment has been repeatedly levied over the years, so how can it take up more than fifty percent, because the farmers don't have much left, and then pay thirty percent of the seed fee, I'm afraid they won't even have their own rations." ”

"Lord He, you're thinking about it." Song Xiance wanted to laugh a little, but he held back his life, after all, the twists and turns in numbers, in this era, ordinary people can't turn around so quickly, "Dare to ask my lord, is Tian Fu collected by a few percent like a rent, or is it fixed?" ”

He Wenrui looked at Song Xiance with some surprise, but he didn't expect that this young man didn't seem to be unfamiliar with political affairs, "In recent years, although the imperial court has increased the Liao salary and training salary, but it is spread on the acres of land, naturally..."

Speaking of this, He Wenrui instantly understood that although the field endowment was levied, it was basically still a fixed value, once the harvest rose sharply, the original tax that seemed very heavy would not account for so much of the share, that is to say, the yield per mu was 100 catties, and the 50% of the field endowment was 50 catties, but if the mu yield was 1,000 catties, and the field endowment was still about 50 catties, then it would be insignificant.

"It's... I don't know how much sweet potatoes can be planted for. Having said that, He Wenrui understands that under the natural disasters of several consecutive years, as long as it can be eaten, it will not be cheap.

"Don't worry, my lord," Zhiwen answered in time, "I have already told everyone in Zhuoluji that even if there is no grain merchant to collect grain, our Zhuolu trading company will recycle it at a fair price, which is cheaper than sorghum and wheat at most, but we will never let them suffer." ”

Zhiwen doesn't have to worry about the lack of food sales, there are so many refugees, you can use sweet potatoes and potatoes as rations to distribute to them, and you can also transport them to the outside of the plug to exchange wool, and there will be no loss.

"In that case, do you still think that the seed fee we charge is high?" Zhiwen asked, to be honest, he really didn't want to give in, no matter how low it was, it would be a living Lei Feng.
