Shi Bufan asked Qin Jiarui to send the corresponding news about Zhancheng rice to the people of the Jiangnan Hao clan in Chang'an, and then the people of the Jiangnan Hao clan did not dare to despise it, and sent it back very quickly with a flying pigeon. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info and this news immediately spread throughout the high-level of the Jiangnan wealthy family. Every day, the carrier pigeons of the major families are immediately passed everywhere, and even several families have a meeting in person. Because this will determine the direction of the future development of the Jiangnan Hao family, and even change the situation in the entire country.

"You say, is what Shi Bufan said true? He said that Champa rice, is that kind of rice really that powerful? I've seen rice as well, and it doesn't seem to be as good as he says! A member of the Chen family said.

In fact, the yield of the earliest rice was not high, and this was gradually increased after the introduction of foreign rice and gradual cultivation. The yield of rice was not too high in the Tang Dynasty, so it did not attract everyone's attention, and only when the rice yield continued to increase in the future could it gradually replace the status of white flour and corn and other grains. Moreover, the nutrition of rice is much higher than that of coarse grains, and the gap between eating rice and coarse grains is not a little bit.

However, the current local rice yield is not high, which makes the Jiangnan Hao family very suspicious of whether what Shi Bufan said is true.

"Will you hold a grudge and deliberately trap Liu Xun? We almost robbed him of his future last time, will he take revenge on us this time? "Some people still have some doubts.

As early as when Shi Bufan was in Wannian County, the Jiangnan Hao clan almost went to pick peaches, and they were worried that Shi Bufan deliberately hurt them and made the Jiangnan Hao clan choose the wrong direction of development, which would kill people.

"I don't think so, do I? Although we wanted to pick peaches last time, weren't we also cheated by him? The last time he borrowed a knife to kill people, he borrowed Li Shimin to clean up our two prime ministers. Although Chen Shuda and Xiao Yu will come down sooner or later, this guy actually advanced a little, which broke our plans. This time, we should be regarded as two clear, and we don't owe each other. What's more, there are more such things in the officialdom, if he doesn't understand this truth, then how did he get to where he is today? ”

What's more, this Shi Bufan also understands that he did not reject cooperating with the Taiyuan royal family to mine coal together. Even when we cooperated with the Yan family to contract projects, they seemed to be sincere in cooperating with us. And if this Champa rice can be introduced back, it will also have great benefits for us in Jiangnan. ”

"Why has our Jiangnan repeatedly lost to the north, and has always been to unify the south with the north, in fact, isn't it because our Jiangnan material population is insufficient? The population of our Jiangnan is insufficient in the north, and even the grain and so on are not as good as the north. We haven't been able to develop enough in the south of the Yangtze River, otherwise the north wants to unify the south with the north, so this will not be so easy. A member of the Chen family clenched his fists and said.

The Jiangnan of the Tang Dynasty was not the Jiangnan of the Ming and Qing dynasties, and the degree of development of Jiangnan in this era was very low. The development of Jiangnan was established in the Three Kingdoms period of Sun Wu began, the north of the continuous troubled times, a large number of people from the north migrated to the south of the Yangtze River to escape the troubled times, so that the south got advanced agricultural technology, and has enough cultural foundation. It can be said that every time the north is in turmoil, that is the opportunity for the development of Jiangnan.

In fact, there are several main reasons for restricting the development of Jiangnan, such as the lack of population and agricultural technology, because the traditional aristodian economy of the scholar clan is very dependent on sufficient human resources, because the landlords actually distribute the land to the peasants, let the peasants rent the crops and then divide them. In fact, it does not essentially change the way the smallholder economy is carried out, and even if new agricultural technologies are developed, it is not only difficult to promote, but also unable to form an intensive effect.

Perhaps a new agricultural technology can increase grain production by 10 percent, but many ordinary retail farmers are reluctant to use it, because 10 percent is not high and does not make much sense to single-family farmers. Instead, they undertake to change the way they have been farming, so that they are not willing to take risks. Retail farmers have poor ability to resist risks and are unwilling to take risks for a 10% increase in production.

However, for a country, a 10 percent increase in production is of great significance, and a 10 percent increase in a country's output is equivalent to a much, much increase in the country's strength. However, the traditional small-scale peasant economy is difficult to promote, and the later the small-scale peasant economy is, the more difficult it will become.

The thinking of the ancients was stuck in the small-scale peasant economy, and they simply did not know how to break through. In fact, improving productivity does not necessarily mean improving production technology, and the vast majority of traversers focus on improving technology in the way of increasing output. In fact, the way to change the productive forces is not only technology, but also includes the adjustment of production relations. The most important point in adjusting the relations of production is to redistribute land, such as the Tang Dynasty's system of equalizing land, and even various policies for distributing land, and even the later well-known contract production to households, all of which are a method of adjusting the relations of production.

In fact, there is another way, and that is to change the way of management. Changing the management method is also the kind of time that has changed from the scattered cultivation of the small-scale farmer economy in the past to the centralized large-scale cultivation. The production management method has been changed, and various agricultural machinery has been successfully promoted, that is, the use of horse farming. After changing the mode of production, the use of human resources is more reasonable, and the use of limited human resources is maximized, which is also a way to improve productivity. It has even driven the people to come up with their own unique technology to expand the use and obtain higher income.

Therefore, the method of Shi Bufan's cooperative has given hope to these wealthy people in the south of the Yangtze River, that is, to change the management method of the past, from the small farmer economy of the past to this large-scale intensive cultivation. With a very limited population in the south of the Yangtze River, the grain production far exceeds that of the small-scale peasant economy. Of course, although the yield may not be as good as the intensive cultivation of the small-scale peasant economy, but in Jiangnan, where there are few people on the land, there is now a large amount of land waiting for you to plant. As long as you can have a variety of them, that's fine.

"I think it's okay, I think it's okay, I don't need to harm us, it's good for us. As long as we can get more cultivation in Jiangnan and produce more grain, our grain output in the whole country will inevitably increase a lot. We can get a more stable position, otherwise we Jiangnan Hao clan will not have much status. The people of the Xiao family also replied.

Why did Li Shimin dare to use it when he said to the people of the Jiangnan wealthy family, why did Xiao Yu of the Jiangnan wealthy family have several ups and downs, and was even tossed miserable by Li Shimin? Why did Li Shimin dare to do this? Of course, there may be some "excuses" in this, and there may be various reasons why Xiao Yu made mistakes. But these are not the essence, in essence, it is actually because the status of the Jiangnan wealthy family is too low in the influence of the overall situation of the world. Let's see if Li Shimin dares to toss Fang Xuanling like this, Li Shimin doesn't dare to toss Fang Xuanling like this, he doesn't dare to toss Li Jing, but he dares to toss Xiao Yu. In essence, the influence of the Jiangnan Hao clan behind Xiao Yu in the early Tang Dynasty was too low, and this influence was too low, which was reflected in the fact that the Jiangnan Hao clan's ability to control the resources of the entire Tang Dynasty society was too low, and the proportion of control was too low.

This is a matter of proportion, and the greater the proportion of resources in hand, the final reflection in politics means that the more people listen to it, and no one dares to take it seriously. The government is just a ruling machine, and it is the people who really have the ability to control the machine, and the support behind that person.

Although the wealthy family in Jiangnan has a very high status in Jiangnan, for the whole country, the proportion of resources they have in their hands is too small after all, and they don't make a sound!

And if you want to increase your political influence, there are only two ways. One is to weaken the proportion of resources occupied by others, and the other is to increase one's own resources and dilute the proportion of opponents' resources. If we adopt the extraordinary suggestion of the times, adopt this kind of promotion of Zhancheng rice, and use the relatively advanced cooperative corporatization model, then it is to increase the amount of social resources and dilute the share of others, so as to achieve the effect of increasing the proportion.

However, the thing that worries the Jiangnan Hao family the most is whether what Shi Bufan said is true, and whether there is really this thing that occupies the city. If so, the Jiangnan Hao clan collective chicken dog ascends to heaven. But if not, it's just a matter of, then I'm afraid it's really going to be troublesome.

"Actually, I don't think it's so troublesome, in fact, as long as we can get them to pay, we can do it. Isn't it just sailing? They pay, let them pay, we find a way to pay, anyway, when the time comes, they will pay far more than us. As for the wages we have to pay, those wages are also in the hands of our Jiangnan people, so we can't lose much. To use a common saying, rotten meat is also rotten in the pot, what do we have to worry about? I don't think Shi Bufan will waste a lot of money to do this kind of stupid thing of killing the hundredth and losing a thousand, right? What's more, although they seem to have good strength, they still lack the foundation compared to us! Even if they fight for consumption, they can't fight us. What's more, he has no reason to put us Lei Wei as the first target, so I don't think we can lose much. And once it succeeds, then our Jiangnan Hao clan can be said to have gone to another realm, and is qualified to influence the general trend of the world. ”

"Even if it is not nice to say, even if we have the result of the confrontation between the north and the south again in the future, then we in Jiangnan will have the ability to go north and not be unified by the north to the south."

China's unification of the north and the south is actually caused by many factors, and it is more difficult to unify the north with the south. Zhu Yuanzhang was able to unify the north with the south, because Jiangnan had been developed enough, and there were enough resources to have this capital to unify the north, coupled with various factors, so that the economic center between the north and the south was biased towards the south, which laid the foundation for Zhu Yuanzhang to unify the north with the south.

However, before the Yuan and Ming dynasties, especially before the Tang Dynasty, the development of Jiangnan was not enough, and it was too difficult to unify the north with the south. The population and resources are not enough, the partial security is okay, and it is too difficult to dominate the north.

The development of Jiangnan is very beneficial to the wealthy families in Jiangnan, which is actually to increase the potential of Jiangnan. Especially in ancient times, population and food were the most important war potential, and having enough population and food was the foundation for improving war potential, which was the case in the era of cold weapons.

Of course, the Jiangnan Hao clan is red-eyed, and the benefits of this future are red-eyed. Anyway, they are also an attitude, they don't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles. These families, which have been inherited for many years, are actually as careful as a hair, and they don't even see rabbits and eagles, and they don't want to pay too much before they see the real benefits. Especially the big families, they dare not gamble, once they gamble, then they may pay for the country's national fortune. On the contrary, they are poor, and they dare to gamble. In fact, this is the case, from small individuals to large countries. When New China first opened the country, he dared to go to the Yankees, because at that time, he was barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes. On the contrary, after economic development, they did not dare.

The Jiangnan Hao clan is like this at present, they are reluctant to the existing way, and before they see the actual effect, they naturally dare not gamble and change their production methods. Once it fails, the loss will definitely be not small. They want to pay for the time, they pay for it, and then reduce the risk and share it together. Of course, in this process, Shi Bufan will definitely pay a lot more than the Jiangnan wealthy family, which is to make it clear that the Jiangnan wealthy family wants to take advantage.

After all, when they don't make money, they will have a large part of the money flowing into their pockets through various wages or purchasing resources, so even if they lose the Jiangnan wealthy family, the loss is very small. As for the large amount of grain that will be obtained at that time, there will naturally be a large amount of capital and more political resources.

"Okay, we have cooperated with Shi Bufan, we will produce a large amount of food when the time comes, and we can consider cooperative distribution with them. But we have to ask for it, and at first they can spend money on the shares, but we have to have the right to gradually redeem them, which are what they call shares. We have to be given the power to redeem the elements gradually, and I don't want them to keep possessing what we have. The people of the Chen family said.

Everyone also nodded, and asked for the power to redeem their shares, which means that Shi Bufan invested first, and then after the investment has results, they not only have a free ride, but also have the right to gradually redeem the shares, so no matter how you look at it, they will take advantage of it. Although it may cost money to redeem the shares, sometimes the shares are so strange that the shares are divided at the beginning, but then they also have to avoid being held by outsiders, and they begin to gradually withdraw the shares. They are also worried that Shi Bufan's long-term holding of their so-called shares will affect their economic control power in Jiangnan. (To be continued.) )
