Although this Huakun person was invited by Li Enyi, but because Hua Kun always wants to earn rebates, Li Enyi's impression of Hua Kun is not very good, but when he heard Hua Kun's idea, he said with a stiff face: "What you said is good, but you also have to think about it, run more on the grassland, see which sheep grow better wool quality, how to raise wool suitable for wool, don't always think about earning rebates!" ”

Whether it is leather goods, or woolen wool, when the economy gets better in the future, it is something with big profits, and leather goods He Tianci can't figure it out. However, I am still a little impressed by some data from the wool textile industry. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, although the woolen textiles of foreigners had begun to be exported to China, they were resisted by the self-sufficiency of China's small peasant economy, and the results were not great. Later, with the establishment of the Republic of China, the economy recovered, and the demand for wool textiles began to surge, especially during the First World War, Europe lacked everything, and the wool textiles exported tens of millions of taels a year were definitely not much.

After the end of World War I, a large number of foreign woolen textile exports poured into China, in addition to their own production, the annual import volume in a few years, from 10 million taels to 40 million taels. What's the lucrative side of this?

At this time, although there are so many woolen mills in China, but the raw materials have not been used by anyone who is domestic, they are all imported from foreign countries, and the cost in the middle is virtually a lot higher, and it is not that no one has thought about the wool produced in the Mongolian steppe, but at the end of the Qing Dynasty, bandits and small armies did not dare to go out at will, let alone those merchants.

However, I am not worried about this black heavenly gift, after all, I have pacified the bandits in the area of Taonan, and with my own efforts, the transportation from Taonan to Mukden is not a problem. Moreover, this is in the abundance of Wendou, but on the West Liao River ferry, you can also take the waterway directly to Yingkou, Jinzhou area, just Jinzhou is Fengtian's fur trading center, there is still the trouble of secondary transportation.

At the moment, the most important thing is to make a fuss about the cultivation of wool. Although the process of introducing advanced Western technology through talents like Hua Kun is a little longer, the potential is very large. Of course, if you want to catch up, it is impossible to catch up in three or five years.

As for the sales of these leather goods, He Tianci is not worried, after all, his army is a big market. In the future, we must have our own military uniforms, our own military boots production, and in this large market of China, which of the tens of thousands of Chinese do not need clothes and leather shoes.

Besides, in terms of his close proximity to Lao Maozi, he is even more lacking in light industry, so this is the best foreign trade object, and this polar bear must earn enough foreign exchange. And at present, the minister to China happens to be Madrid Dorf, an old acquaintance of his own. It would be a pity if this convenience was not used, although we did not meet for half a year, but the trade exchanges did not stop, He Tianci wanted arms here, and Madrid Dove wanted vodka and daily necessities. Both sides take what they need.

A week later, with the help of more than 300 middle-aged people and horses, the old and weak women and children dragged their families into Taonan Fucheng.

Young and old, their eyes are full of tension about the new environment, and there are also some expectations.

"Why didn't you Martha bosses come?" Lee Eun-yi wore a dogskin hat to one. A young student in his twenties with yellow breeches at his feet asked.

"My lord, our big boss said that the little ones should settle down in Taonan Mansion City first, as for his whereabouts, the big boss has explained, but he can't say until He controls Lord He." Ma Zhanlin cautiously stared at everything around him.

Li Enyi muttered dissatisfiedly in his heart, and smiled helplessly: "Okay, then I'll bother the little brother for a long time, let me go back and talk to my He Commander."

As soon as he heard Li Enyi's report, He Tianci couldn't understand for a while, what was this Ma Zhanshan going to do, saying that he would take refuge in himself, but he didn't come, and he sent a subordinate, and he had to see his own face to say where Ma Zhanshan went.

"Little brother, are you looking for me? He Tianci looked at this Ma Zhanlin and smiled slightly.

Ma Zhanlin was startled at first, glanced at He Tianci with a little suspicion, and then his face changed, and he hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to He Tianci and said, "The grass people knock to see the adults, please forgive me." ”

"Little brother, get up! You're welcome, what do you call it! ”

After all, this Ma Zhanlin was seeing He Tianci for the first time, and he was a little nervous, but as soon as He Tianci opened his mouth, he was not so terrible, and his hanging heart was put down, and he stood up with a sigh of relief: "Caomin Ma Kui, Ma Zhanshan is my cousin, and my cousin asked me to tell the adult, he said that he took a few brothers back to the Jelimu League, and he would bring back what the adult wanted as soon as possible." ”

Ma Zhanshan, Ma Zhanlin, if this cousin is compared to his cousin, it is far worse, this Ma Zhanlin looks much stronger than Ma Zhanshan, but this courage is too far behind, and he was scared like this before he said anything.

Looking at Ma Zhanlin, who was in a cold sweat, He Tianci comforted: "I know, little brother, you take the brothers to settle down." Don't be afraid, the officers and soldiers here don't eat people, and Taonanfu City will be your home in the future. ”

"Master Xie." Ma Zhanlin said gratefully.

It turned out that the scope of Ma Zhanshan's activities also happened to be Yashi's territory, and one of his brothers had been a bandit in the Yashi bandits, and this Ma Zhanshan had just taken refuge in He Tianci's subordinates, so he took a few brothers to infiltrate the Jelimu League to obtain the main route of the bandits' actions and hiding places.

"Okay, go deep into the tiger's den alone, and it is worthy of Ma Zhanshan of the Jiangqiao War of Resistance in the future!" He Tianci couldn't help but sigh.

Of course, in my own era, the Jiangqiao War of Resistance will not happen, and even the Japanese will not enter the Northeast, let alone the 9, 18, and 77 incidents, and with me, the Japanese will not want to step into the Northeast for half a step, let alone step into China, and I will come here to limit the development of the Japanese, and sooner or later I will make Japan pay the price in this parallel era and turn all the shame over.

In the past six months, although Taoketaohu in Taonan has been broken up and retreated to Mount Solon, there is no news that he sent Zhang Zuolin and Du Lisan to pursue on the grassland for more than half a year, and as for the Yashi bandits and Baiyin Dalai, they are hiding in the Zhelimu League, and they don't come out, and the spies sent out can't find the specific location of these bandits at all.

It was not easy to hear that the Baiyin Da Lai bandit gang was showing up in the area of Kaltu and Sanchangsheng some time ago, and before he could leave, news came that the Mongolian bandits in the area of Kaltu and Sanchangsheng had been exterminated by the patrol battalions of Wu Junsheng, Ma Longtan and others, but it was later confirmed that it was only a small number of bandits who escaped and robbed in the Zhelimu League, and the number did not exceed 500 people, but it was such a team, which still made the right and rear patrol battalions of Fengtian pay the price of more than 1,500 people.

Of course, when this was reported to the imperial court, it was reported by the commanders of these two patrol battalions to exterminate more than 3,000 Mongolian rebels, which also brought a lot of pressure to He Tianci, after all, this has been recovered from Taonan for half a year, if he doesn't make any moves at this time, I'm afraid it's really hard to say in the imperial court.

This Ma Zhanshan went deep into the tiger's den at this time, but he did He Tianci a great favor, if this Ma Zhanshan can take the route of the bandits' life and the specific location, then it will not be a problem to exterminate these bandits. However, He Tianci was also prepared for Ma Zhanshan's failure to bring out the news, that is, to step up training, no matter what, before winter, the bandits must be exterminated, otherwise in winter, the grassland will be covered with heavy snow, which will be even more difficult.

Of course, in addition to the ineffective suppression of bandits, He Tianci still has a lot of gains in Taonan, first of all, because of the smooth clearance of Taoke Taohu in the early days, the recovery of Jing'an, Taonan and other cities, or won the reward of the imperial court, the management of Taonan also fell into his own hands, as for the prefect of Taonan has been vacant for many years, under He Tianci's suggestion, Gan Zhiming has naturally become the prefect of Taonan.

Under Gan Zhiming's rule, although Taonan was remote and plagued by bandits, with the fact of the policy of returning pastures, as well as the fact that He Tianci allocated the terra nullius to the Han people who reclaimed the wasteland, and the soldiers who retired from the first town due to injuries to become invalids farms, the whole of Taonan also had vitality.

Under the leadership of Wendou and Li Enyi, there are many more people doing business in Taonan than before, and the trade exchanges with the Han people have also indirectly changed the living habits of the herdsmen, and many herdsmen have begun to give up their nomadic life and imitate these Han people, either farming or doing business.

Of course, there are countless cattle and sheep in this vast grassland, and there are also countless troubles, and if the Yashi bandits and the Baiyin Dacheng bandit gang are not exterminated for a day, the Zhelimu League will not be at peace for a day, and they want to develop industry and commerce here, and they want to develop immigrants, but if they don't get rid of the bandits, they can't do these things themselves, and now they can only take care of the small piece of Taonan, and the southern part of the vast Horqin grassland is still in the hands of the Mongolian bandits.

"Eilechuan, under the Yin Mountain, the sky is like a dome, covering the four fields. The sky is vast and the wilderness is vast. The wind blows the grass and sees the cattle and sheep. Looking at this beautiful scenery, He Tianci couldn't help but sigh, this Dongmeng is already his own territory, the cattle and sheep all over the land, and the vast grassland are all his own, and this will be another turning point for himself.
