98 Draw Cakes
Just relied on a set of foolish rhetoric, plus two bags of miscellaneous instant noodles, and a box of luncheon meat.
Yang Yinuan persuaded the father and son of the Gao family, and the two of them unanimously decided to partner with him to do this business.
"If we get this instant noodle out, then we won't have to worry about how to store this rye every spring!"
"That is, every year in the spring rainy season, more than half of the wheat has to be moldy, and it can only be thrown away, which is really distressing."
"If you do this, you won't be afraid!"
"That is, there is also this luncheon meat, if it can really be canned, then our ranch can expand production......"
The two of you were happy, and I talked about the situation on their ranch.
Yang Yinuan was in the process of talking between the two of them, and he could be regarded as understanding the situation of their ranch.
and the development of local agriculture and animal husbandry.
It turns out that the climate and environment of the iron city where they are located are similar to the climate in the northeast of our country.
The four seasons of the year are distinct, with shorter springs and four months in winter.
In addition, the annual precipitation is also abundant, and it starts to rain every year in March.
Until May and June, the rain is abundant, and during this time, the temperature is low, which is not conducive to agricultural production.
This is also the most difficult time for the survival of the Iron City, although the harvest last autumn was good, but after a winter, the grain in the warehouse was almost consumed.
Spring was originally intended to prepare for spring ploughing, but storage conditions were limited.
At this time of the year, there will be a batch of stored grain moldy and spoiled, which leads to this green and yellow time, and many people will go hungry.
If the year is good, everyone eats less, and it will pass, but if the rain is particularly sufficient, the temperature is particularly low.
The spring ploughing time is more than ten or twenty days later than in previous years, and many people will definitely starve to death.
Because there is not enough food in the wilderness at this time.
As for the Gao family's ranch, it has always been a headache for them.
They have more than a thousand cattle on the pasture, and the cattle of this world grow especially fast.
Unlike the cattle on the Blue Star, which are slaughtered as adults in three years, the cattle here can basically reach adulthood in one year and be slaughtered.
But the problem is that the production cycle of this cow is generally @estrus in spring and production in summer.
The calves usually take until the next summer to grow up.
But every winter, it is the time when the Gao family has the most headaches.
Because every winter, there will be heavy snowfall, and if there is a snowstorm, many underage cattle will freeze to death every year.
And in the summer, when the cattle reach adulthood, they also have a headache.
Because if a large number of cattle are killed at this time and cannot be sold in time, the beef will quickly spoil.
Therefore, they can only slaughter little by little, but this will prolong the feeding cycle of cattle and sheep.
Not only is the feed wasted, but also the cost of breeding is greatly increased.
Because the longer you keep it, the more likely you are to encounter unknown risks.
For example, a sudden natural disaster or plague can bring great risks to your ranch.
So they have been engaged in breeding for so many years, but the scale of the ranch has not expanded.
It's because of the storage and transportation of beef.
And sometimes, it is clear that the Nanyun Kingdom is also the sixteen cities of Yanyun, and those relatively wealthy areas have a greater demand for beef.
But the problem is that how to transport the cattle is also very problematic.
In this era, the common method they used was to drive live cattle over and sell them.
But in this process, the risk is also very high.
When crossing the Handa grassland, you may encounter strongman tribes, or horse bandits, or fierce beasts.
These can expose them to huge losses.
Even if you can drive the cattle to the Sixteen Cities of Yanyun, you can get there.
The cattle have traveled thousands of miles, and the loss on the road, coupled with the loss of fat, this cost is converted, no matter how it is calculated, it is a big loss.
Because of so many troubles, although the people of Gaojiabao have mastered the technology of domesticating bison.
But he didn't dare to expand his breeding scale, and it was generally enough to raise enough to eat in the iron city.
Because you raise too much, not only will you not make money, but you are also likely to lose money.
And now, with this canned meat technology proposed by Yang Yinuan.
All these problems can be solved at once!
"Moreover, we can not only make canned beef, but also pork sausages and canned mutton."
"By the way, what do our sheep look like?"
Yang Yinuan also said that he was rising, and suddenly asked again.
The father and son of the Gao family were stunned again when they heard this: "Sheep, it's a sheep, what else can it look like?" ”
When Yang Yinuan heard this answer, he also scratched his head slightly embarrassed.
"Ah, haha, I mean, if this sheep is one of those long-haired sheep, we have other businesses to do."
When the father and son of the Gao family heard this, they suddenly turned into starry eyes.
"Oh? Also, what kind of business can be done? ”
"For example, the business of felt, wool, wool!"
Yang Yinuan smiled all over his face and said casually.
If you want to think about the rise of the Great Yin Kingdom on the Blue Star, it started with the sheep cannibalism movement.
But many people don't know why they want to raise sheep in the enclosure?
It's because you can make felt from collecting wool!
You must know that in Europa back then, the textile technology of various countries was very strong.
Gaul and the Roman city-states were very skilled in textile technology, and the cloth produced was also marketed in Europa.
At that time, the cloth of the Great Yin Kingdom could not compete with them at all.
It wasn't until the Yin people discovered that wool could be made into felt, and clothes made of this fabric were cold-proof and warm-resistant, and they were also wear-resistant and durable.
It is much stronger than ordinary coarse cloth, and it quickly opened the market and won the favor of consumers.
So their landlords began to raise sheep on a large scale......
After that, there was the birth of a more advanced wool and wool production process.
Because the wool production capacity can no longer meet the production needs of wool, and then it is found that cotton is used to replace wool.
Finally the cotton thread process was born, and then the modern textile industry was born......
So this wool textile industry is a very profitable industry!
Especially in recent days, Yang Yinuan has also observed the food and clothing of the people in the iron city.
I found that most of the people wore linen clothes, which were not good at keeping warm in the winter.
And the rich people are covered with heavy animal skin clothes in winter.
But after all, not everyone can afford to wear expensive fur, so the market for this felt can be imagined.
And felt can not only be used to make clothes, blankets, mattresses, cushions, etc., the use can be wide......
So this sheep raising is also a good business!
