Chapter 099: Improving the Economic Structure

After some analysis, Zhu Youxiao found that the tenant farmers in Huangzhuang have no problems with income and disaster protection, but there are still loopholes in the economic structure.

For example, when tenant farmers produce commercial grain and then exchange it for silver, how will their other daily necessities be solved? And how to solve the demand for agricultural and sideline products?

In general, if there is a demand from consumers, there must be businessmen to do business.

But in this way, the funds are not in the economic circle built by Zhu Youxiao, if the funds are made by a large amount of private capital, and they are not circulated in the economic circle built by Zhu Youxiao, the money will be less and less. It's the same as a country, how much it exports and how much it imports. If you only import and don't export, the country will get poorer and poorer. However, the same phenomenon exists within a country.

What the tenant farmers usually need is nothing more than cloth, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, wine, sugar, fuel, paper, ironware, vehicles, sacks, and so on.

Zhu Youxiao listed all the commodities needed by these peasants, no matter how big or small, and then said to Yang Guorui: "Among these commodities, except for those gadgets, other commodities should best be supplied by our royal capital." ”

"We can supply ironware, we need to build textile factories for cloth, we can supply fuel, and the mining companies are already mining coal. Oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, wine, sugar, salt, wine, and oil can also be supplied. Sauce, vinegar, sugar, and tea need to be handed over to private businessmen. The board car used by Huangzhuang can be solved by finding some craftsmen. Yang Guorui said roughly.

Zhu You said to Yang Guorui: "These things, we will grasp the big and let go of the small, and solve them one by one." If the north is not suitable for the development of textiles, you can put it in Nantong, which also happens to be the main cotton producing area, and it is also in the Jiangbei area. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"And in terms of fuel, we can supply farmers with honeycomb coal, not only to prohibit them from burning trees, but also to encourage them to plant trees. As for fuel at night, you can go to a cotton oil factory. Zhu Youxiao looked at the things on the list and gave instructions one by one. In addition to lighting candles at night, people also burn oil, but instead of kerosene, they burn vegetable oil such as cotton oil. Cotton oil is a kind of thing that will gradually sterilize men after eating, so it is not edible.

"Honeycomb coal? 陛xià, what is this? Yang Guorui was stunned, and hurriedly asked Zhu Youxiao. Zhu Youxiao was also stunned for a while, and then realized that there seemed to be no honeycomb coal in these years.

There seems to be a huge business opportunity in this! Zhu Youxiao's mind flashed, and then he came back to his senses and said to Yang Guorui: "Honeycomb coal is to press coal into a honeycomb shape to facilitate combustion, and I will personally handle the supply of fuel!" Speaking of this oil, it is cultivated in various Huangzhuang. Each household breeds two pigs, and the pigs are raised centrally, and the feed and labor are shared. When the pigs are killed, the lard and pork needed by the farmers are left behind and divided equally. Farmers are encouraged to raise more chickens and ducks by themselves. ”

Obviously, the rural aquaculture industry is very promising, and if the rural labor force is not organized for production at ordinary times, it will be wasted in many cases.

As long as people have the means of production and are industrious enough, it is easy for them to become rich.

Growing crops is one thing, and the development of animal husbandry is obviously something that must be vigorously promoted. If there is a lack of protein involvement, the consumption of grains by labor is very scary, because the protein they need needs to be converted from grains. Therefore, non-staple foods rich in protein can actually be regarded as food.

There are sufficient conditions for raising chickens, pigs, and cattle in Huangzhuang. Raising chickens is nothing more than paying some grains, and at the same time, they can also be put in the field to eat insects and grass, and the feed conversion ratio is the highest, about 2:1. Pigs can use sweet potatoes, under the premise of sufficient harvest, farmers can not take sweet potatoes as a staple food, but how to solve those sweet potatoes grown on sandy land? These sweet potatoes are more troublesome to store and transport than grains, so feeding pigs is obviously the best option.

If the forage is not enough, a few acres of land can be left after the summer harvest to plant grass, and the cattle raised by each household are mainly used for servitude.

One of the advantages of centralized pig breeding is that you can make the health of the pigsty clearer, and at the same time, you can centralize the sewage treatment and build a biogas digester. The digester can also process all kinds of manure, which is of great benefit to maintaining rural sanitation, as well as obtaining fertilizer.

Whether it is farming or biogas, it is necessary for farmers to do it. If there is no one to organize them to do these things, these things may not be done, some people are inert, some people don't know how to do it right. But it's much easier to do these things together.

Farming these side businesses can also make full use of the leisure time.

Zhu Youxiao did not need these peasant households to participate in too many military activities in their spare time, so it could be used in production. Each household raises two pigs, and there are 200 pigs for 100 households in a Huangzhuang, and one can be killed every other day, and the oil and meat can basically meet the needs of farmers.

The breeding of 200 pigs is divided among the feed and man-hours, and there is actually not much pressure on each farmer, and the housewife can contribute a little every day, even the children can help. And you can take turns to work, just three or five days a year, and you don't have to feed pigs every day.

Just three to five days of work, and then some feed, to ensure that there is meat to eat and oil for a year, and the quality of life will be improved immediately. Moreover, this kind of small-scale collectivized farming, which is unlikely to have many losses, ensures that everyone has meat to eat, which is also the benefit of the collective system.

However, the collective system also has disadvantages, so a small-scale collective system is good, and a large-scale system is counted.

"In terms of salt, as well as ironware, farmers must be given preferential prices, and now the focus is on the people, and these discounts can be regarded as subsidies! Iron tools are given at cost price, and the price of salt is reduced to ten cents a catty. Zhu Youxiao continued to give instructions, and he didn't bother to write anything like a business plan, just explain it clearly orally, and let his subordinates handle other things.

After some instructions, Huangzhuang's economic circle gradually had a clear look.

That is, Huangzhuang farmers produce grain through guò, so as to sell it to Jimin grain bank in exchange for currency, and then develop breeding through guò to meet their own demand for agricultural and sideline products. Other daily necessities are purchased with money, which is equivalent to a semi-self-sufficient agricultural division of labor production model.

Most of the commodities purchased by farmers will be provided by Royal Capital.

The farms of the Royal Agricultural Company will provide poultry and livestock for the farmers, while the Royal Bank will fund the establishment of textile mills, distilleries, paper mills, and soy sauce factories to supply the farmers' demand for commodities and thus curb the flow of capital to private capital.

These factories are actually relatively easy to run, and they can be combined with private capital.

These light industrial things, private capital is relatively good at development, choose a few to inject capital into the joint, and then through the guò tax bureau to drive competitors out of the market, these factories will naturally develop. Then through the way of healthy competition, we will eliminate those joint ventures that are not good at management.

Looking for a joint venture businessman, naturally Zhu Youxiao did not need to come forward.

Zhu Youxiao found that there was a great business opportunity for honeycomb coal, so he went to 'research and develop' honeycomb coal. It's so simple that it's not a research and development.

Zhu Youxiao thought that if the people were forbidden to burn firewood and all the honeycomb coal was used, wouldn't the money be in an uproar?
