Shouzhang County's tax revenue is mainly based on agricultural tax input, and the area where Shouzhang County is located is mainly farmland, but because of the impact of famine and banditry, coupled with the annexation of land by wealthy households, there are very few lands that can really pay agricultural taxes. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoWhat's more, the annual agricultural tax is levied during the summer and autumn harvests, so even if you want to collect the agricultural tax, it is impossible.

The half-year tax holiday proposed by Qian Heng was not a problem at all in Li Ruoshui's view, so he agreed very neatly. As for what Qian Heng wants this policy to do, Li Ruoshui will not worry about it at all, and he doesn't need to provide financial support, Li Ruoshui is also happy to see what tricks Qian Heng can do in this pig raising.

Master Feng can use a trick to collect taxes to defeat Qian Heng's intention to collect piglets, and he can be regarded as a person with some ability.

It's just that Feng Zhushu's vision is only the pattern of this Shouzhang County, Qian Heng collects piglets, not purely for fattening, even ordinary people in later generations know that fattening pigs want to grow fast, but also to pay attention to breed and blood.

Qian Heng didn't think about cultivating any common fattening varieties in later generations, such as long white strips, the meat quality of black pigs, on the whole, is higher than that of fattening pork in later generations, including the factors of long breeding time, but the high lean meat rate is a characteristic of black pigs, especially the fat stored in lean meat is not low, which is undoubtedly of great benefit to the current extremely low Song physique.

Although there is no need to find any posterity fattening pigs, it is still necessary to do basic breed screening.

During the Great Song Dynasty, especially in the Central Plains, black pigs were basically raised in captivity in farmers' homes. In particular, the land of Qilu is the inheritance of ancient animal husbandry. In the Song Dynasty, in the Jingdong Lianglu generation, some relatively stable black pig breeds have gradually formed.

Among them, the Huai pigs raised on both sides of the Huai River, as well as the Shenzhou pigs in the Hebei area, and the Laiwu pigs around Dengzhou, of course, there are some other black pig breeds, all of which are within Qian Heng's consideration.

When Master Feng made a move to obstruct Qian Heng's plan to collect piglets, Qian Heng had already entrusted more than a dozen men from the Qian family to go to the surrounding states and counties to find piglets that were different from the local black pig breeds.

However, pig breeding is different from other livestock, and its adaptability to environmental temperature is not very strong, so the people arranged by Qian Heng are all in the Huaihai line, and as for how many piglets can be recovered, Qian Heng does not dare to guarantee.

Master Feng's methods just reminded Qian Heng that even if he had Huang Shang's big backer, he had to act cautiously.

However, Qian Heng didn't care about blocking his own purchase of piglets now. Now in Qian Heng's pig farm, there are hundreds of piglets collected from the local area. If it is used for breeding, the quantity is indeed not much, and Master Feng also saw the loophole in Qian Heng's management before he began to implement obstruction methods.

It's just that Qian Heng bought these piglets, but they were used to eliminate and screen new varieties, so Master Feng's action not only failed to hinder Qian Heng, but helped Qian Heng a small favor.

The number of local piglets that Qian Heng needs is not very much, but he is embarrassed to directly refuse the villagers' intention to sell piglets.

Of course, if there was no such thing as Master Feng, Qian Heng would just reserve more feed and prepare for fattening in advance.

Now Qian Heng is holding the document that Li Ruoshui personally stamped with the big seal, so he has a precaution against Master Feng's next small actions, and he will not encounter resistance on the surface. At least in terms of the management of county governance, Master Feng has no reason or excuse to make things difficult for himself.

As soon as Qian Heng got Li Ruoshui's document, he began to prepare the reserve of feed.

Whether it is to do black pig fattening, or breed screening, need a large number of feed reserves to support, now the entire west of Beijing, and even the east and west of Hebei, are in a state of famine, can not eat or even sell children and daughters of the big people. Therefore, the matter of collecting feed has also become a bit difficult.

When the two guys of the Qian family who were responsible for helping to purchase feed raw materials reported the matter to Qian Heng, Qian Heng realized that his plan was inappropriate in this regard.

In Qian Heng's original plan, it was necessary to purchase some legume plant straw or nutritious plant straw such as bran and sorghum straw, but Qian Heng did not take into account that in the jurisdiction of the entire Beijing and Tokyo West Roads, although it has not yet reached the level of starvation, people have died of starvation because of their poor family background.

The external environment is so bad that even the bran and bean straw are crushed to make food to satisfy hunger, and where can they be harvested.

Considering this situation, Qian Heng went back to the house directly and called Qian You over.

Qian You was specially arranged to Qian Heng by the old patriarch of the Qian family, who was originally a small steward in charge of the logistics of the Qian family, but now he has become a housekeeper under Qian Heng, responsible for helping Qian Heng arrange specific affairs scheduling.

Hearing Qian Heng call him, Qian Youyou was busy trotting to work.

"Young Master Heng, what do you command?"

"The matter of piglets, we don't have to worry about the local purchase in Shouzhang County for the time being, but the reserve of this feed must be prepared in advance!"

As soon as Qian Heng said this, Qian You was stunned, "Young Master Heng, this is about to start spring, and the wild vegetables and pigweed in the field will also grow at that time, no matter how bad it is, there are many branches and leaves that can be cut back to feed the pigs." ”

Qian had this, and Qian Heng raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

Money has said, but it is not excessive, most people, where there is nutritious swill and feed pigs to feed pigs, most of them are to get some wild vegetables and pigweed and other things to pass the food, and even some people, when there is no food to feed pigs, there are many people who directly feed pigs cold water.

However, this is not a single family to raise, large-scale raising, you must reserve a lot of feed.

Thinking of this, Qian Heng coughed, "Qian You, things are not as simple as you think, if according to my pig breeding plan, each pig is raised to a weight that can be slaughtered, the amount of feed required may be about five or six stones, the scale of our pig farm is not large, but the number of piglets must be at least reserved to more than three hundred, so many piglets to be raised, how much feed is needed, you can calculate well!" ”

In fact, you don't need to calculate carefully, you know that the money is a large amount. But after thinking about it carefully, it would cost more than 2,000 stones, and the sweat on Qian You's forehead immediately flowed down.

"Young Master Heng, this is really not a small amount, even if you kill the small one, you won't be able to get so much feed!"
