Chapter 0189 Inspecting the Industry
After adding honey, green onion and ginger, salt, and after a morning of debugging the ratio of ingredients to fresh milk, Zhang Yue finally experimented with a unique taste of milk tea. The fishy smell of the pen and fun pavilion www.biquge.info is inexhaustible, but it is much lighter, and even Daddy Li and Steward Liu are also good.
Then the milk wine is much easier, the fresh milk is boiled and sterilized, and then counted in a bamboo tube in proportion, mixed into a certain amount of rice wine, the color becomes similar to milk tea, but the taste is very different.
After having lunch at the manor, Zhang Yue sent his own soldiers to inform Li Chuyun to meet halfway and go directly to the state to govern the city, when it was almost dark when he entered the city, Li Chuyun went home directly, and Zhang Yue took his own soldiers to the Shuaifu.
When Suo Wanjin heard about it, he actually came out of the gate of the palace to greet him, and laughed when he saw him: "Yuanzhen went to Hedong this time, and he came in his busy schedule, but there is a big gift?" ”
"Haha...... Suo Dashuai is really fast-talking, bringing back fifty good horses from Hequ, I don't know if Suo Dashuai is satisfied? "There are also milk tea and milk wine, of course Zhang Yue will not let go of this opportunity to sell. If you ask for food and grass in this way, you can just open your mouth. Moreover, last year, he went to war to transport grain, and then recruited troops in Yanzhou, begging for grain and grass, etc., but the favor was returned.
"Yo! Fifty horses? Yuanzhen's gift is a bit unbearable! Suo Wanjin's eyes flashed, and he guessed that Zhang Yue wanted grain and grass, and there was also an industry that he wanted to take care of, but he was prepared, and he couldn't help laughing. On the one hand, Zhang Yue was introduced into the marshal's mansion, and on the other hand, he arranged for the officers to settle Zhang Yue's personal soldiers.
"How so? Suo Dashuai has worked hard and is completely deserved, I don't know what the reward for the war in Huizhou is? Zhang Yue stepped forward and followed, and followed Suo Wan into the back hall of the Shuai Mansion to sit down.
"Kaifu Yi is the same as the three divisions, inspecting the school Taifu, and adding the same Pingzhang. But so-and-so is already old, and no matter how high the official rank is, it can't compare to you young people! Suo Wanjin has a look of color and looks very pretentious.
"Suo Dashuai is in his prime! Look at Zhi Linggong, he is over 70 years old! Zhang Yue said with a little compliment.
Suo Wanjin laughed when he heard this, and suddenly felt that he was very comfortable, and he was very useful, and called the attendant to serve tea, but Zhang Yue dissuaded: "Handsome and slow!" Why don't you try the milk tea from my manor? ”
Suo Wanjin's smile instantly froze on his face, and he couldn't help but laugh: "That tea...... You can sell it to Li Yiyin! Maybe I will! ”
"It's not the original one, this is a new recipe, it's absolutely delicious!" Zhang Yue was serious, asked Du Ximi to fetch two white porcelain pots in, put them on the table and pulled out the corks one by one, and looked at Suo Wanjin with a smile and was silent.
Suo Wanjin sniffled, smelled a sweet smell, and the smell of wine, he picked up a porcelain pot and looked at the red paper label attached to it, which had four black calligraphy fonts of "Guansai Milk Tea", and below was the logo of Sunrise on the top of the mountain, and then there was a simple formula below, as well as the effects of strengthening the body and prolonging life.
"Hah! It's a new trick! But women like it......" Suo Wanjin smiled, poured a small sip and quickly put it down, tried the milk wine again, and his eyes suddenly sparkled.
"Good wine! The taste is mellow and long, and it is evocative! It would be better if the milk smell was lighter! Suo Wanjin praised.
"Then it's not called milk wine, but the taste will be adjusted! If you like it, you can find Zhang Quanxu and Liu Xiansheng at any time, and my industry will be managed by them. Zhang Yue smiled smugly, and changed his words: "This time I went to Hedong, and the preparation of grain and grass weapons was insufficient, I don't know if Suo Dashuai can help one or two." ”
"Jinju Yao Yuanfu will naturally provide it, why do you need to ask me? You all know the situation in Yanzhou, after the armor workshop is abolished, weapons and armor need to be transported from Tokyo, and it is difficult to get approval, so this can't help you, some grain and grass can be transferred out, and you also have a warehouse in Jincheng County, don't think I don't know. Suo Wanjin said angrily.
"That little bit of grain has already been shipped to Huining, where is it?" Zhang Yue was a little helpless, it seemed that he could only find local states and counties on the way to urge.
That night, Zhang Yue stayed at the Shuaifu Pavilion, and the next morning he went to the Dongcheng Prefecture Ya, visited Qin Mingshan, the envoy of the Du Branch, and observed the judge Bian Conghan, the secretary Yao Guangchun and others.
Then he sent his own soldiers to find Zhang Quanxu and Liu Xiansheng, and asked about the income and expenditure of the industry, and they led the way to the cotton fields outside the city to take a look.
The apple saplings have been transplanted to the mountains of Luoxi'an in Jincheng County, and there is nothing to see here. Zhang Yue went to the ironware workshop again, and now it is a big manor, not the original compound. There were twenty or thirty skilled blacksmiths and carpenters, and thirty or forty apprentices, and the household utensils and agricultural implements made were lined up in the warehouse, but the sales were good.
"When the war in Hedong is over, I will make up the court to immigrate to Huizhou, and then this iron and carpenter workshop will also move over, leaving only a few craftsmen to open a small workshop." What Zhang Yue thought in his heart was that this would be moved to Huining in the future to build weapons, and the cold forging technology of Qingtang armor needed to be developed. I just have to find a way to get the approval of the court, otherwise I will be suspicious.
"It's easy to do! Then we'll just ask the general for instructions! But the brewery doesn't have to move, right? Huizhou can open another winery, it is said that grapes can be grown in Kanbei, so I don't know if Huizhou can do it......" Liu Xiansheng thought about it and said.
"You can try it! As long as the money can be turned, what do you want to do, just write a report to me in advance. In addition, our firm must set up a headquarters, see whether it is Huining, or Yanzhou, and then look at the situation in the future, now go to the accounts! ”
Zhang Yue nodded in encouragement, and then several people entered the city together, Zhang Yue calculated the income and expenditure accounts, and the current income of Yanzhou's industry has 10,000 baguan money, which is mainly the income of wine and blacksmith workshops. Almost all of the profits of Zhang Quanxu's merchants have been invested in Huizhou and the pastures here, and there is no income so far.
"Last year, I produced some cotton, and it took a lot of effort to pick out the cotton seeds, but I made a new spinning wheel and hired women to spin and weave cloth, but the thickness of the weaving was uneven, and I don't know what the problem was." Liu Xiansheng said with some distress.
"There should be a problem with the spinning yarn, first take care of the yarn, and then try to improve the spinning wheel, skilled weavers should understand this, you can listen to their opinions. Time is running out, go to the winery at the foot of Fenglin Mountain, you have to leave in the afternoon! Zhang Yue came out of the tent and saw that it was almost noon, so he was a little anxious.
"This year's cotton yield will be higher, and there are several times more good seeds prepared, but it is a waste to weave poorly." Liu Xiansheng said with some pity.
"I seem to have heard the general say that it can be made into cotton clothes and cotton shoes...... Zhang Quanxu usually manages the business of trade routes, and he doesn't have many days in Yanzhou, so he reminded when he remembered it.
"Not bad! That's it, the yarn that is not well woven can be loosened to make cotton clothes and shoes, and it can definitely be sold in winter. Now Huizhou is also cultivating wasteland, and cotton can also be planted there, and a cotton cloth and cotton clothing workshop is also set up. ”
Zhang Yue's planned stall is very large, he himself can't remember it clearly, and the industries in Tangzhou and Yuezhou don't know what the situation is now, and he suddenly feels that there is still a lack of people around him who are in charge of these affairs, so as to report the industrial income and expenditure of various places at any time, so as to fully regulate and control.
