Chapter 268: Reluctance
Yuan Jiaqi was relieved to finish this matter and was able to go home to have a look.
When he got home, he knew about Fengyun going to be a soldier, and he was stunned at the time, and he really didn't know what to say.
"Lady, why don't you tell me about such a big matter, my father is too unqualified."
"Say what, say that they are going, don't say that they are going too, you are busy enough over there, how can you have time to take care of your family."
"It's all bad for the husband, it should be punished, it should be punished."
"How's going on at the workshop?"
"It's already in production, and the market has been found for the husband, so don't worry about the lady."
"Well, you can take the profits from those workshops in the future, and the taxes will be paid from that side in the future, and I won't ask anymore, and I won't give you any more money."
"Huh?"
"As the trees grow, the amount of oil will increase every year, and when pine nuts can be produced, it will be an income, and in ten years, it will not be a problem for the workshop to raise the land and people, I have calculated it."
"Lady, thanks to you, your husband's career is so smooth."
"Not necessarily, as long as you are willing to marry, it can be smooth."
Yuan Jiaqi immediately sank his face, "Lady, being a husband is not ungrateful, besides, I like mothers, I don't like them."
"Yo, you're going to make a face."
"No, I'm not putting on a face for the lady, but the lady's words, which make me very unhappy, I will only have the lady for most of my life, and the lady knows that she always takes words as her husband,"
"Cut,"
Qiao Mai grinned, and Yuan Jiaqi looked at her seriously.
"In the eyes of the husband, the lady is the most beautiful, the lady is the best, and the lady is the most harmful!"
"I'm overjoyed when I say it, does this count as your confession to me?"
Yuan Jiaqi's face flushed, "Lady, what the husband says is true, in the eyes of the husband, no one can compare to the lady, it is enough to have a lady in my life, don't mention other women in the future."
"Got it."
"Do you want to open a small stove for Feng'er and Yun'er for the Futuo people?"
"No, my son, with real skills, you don't need to open a small stove at all."
"Then how bad is it that I, the father, don't do something for them?"
"Then take care of the workshop, soon our two sons will get married, and we will prepare for the dowry, and we will be parents-in-law at a young age! Haha!"
"Well, that's good, we can be grandparents early."
Qiao Mai imagined a granddaughter on his left hand and a grandson on his right hand, and immediately felt cold.
She's only in her twenties, and she's about to become a grandmother, which is really weird.
The two sat down to drink tea and sighed, "The eldest daughter-in-law is the county lord, and this dowry is a shame if it is less than 100,000 taels of silver."
"Well, our second son is also a high-hearted lord, and the dowry will definitely be indispensable at that time, and Chuan'er, who has a sweet mouth like honey at a young age, will definitely attract little girls to like it."
"And our Ling'er, the dowry must be prepared thickly, and it can't be underestimated,"
"To put it bluntly, it's all money-losing goods."
"Haha, you, when they all get married, will they resign as husbands? When the time comes, the two of us will travel all over the world, see the good mountains and rivers of the Ming Dynasty, and experience the folk customs of different places." ….
"Let's talk about it then, the plan can't catch up with the changes, once they get married, they will face the birth of a baby, they are all first-time fathers and mothers, and they can't do without us by their side."
"Anyway, being a husband can't help, and only a person like a lady can help them."
"Maybe, we won't need it then, besides, are you willing to resign?"
"Willing to go, in fact, as a husband, I want to travel around the world, see all the great rivers and mountains in the world, and have a lady as a companion, which is what my husband wants in his life."
Qiao Mai looked at the man in front of him and nodded slowly, "Okay, as long as you need it, I will accompany you."
In the middle of July, it rained for miles
The next time the cheer stopped, the palace in the capital, the old emperor looked at Qin Zhen from the Yuan family, and his hands trembled with excitement.
"Great, great, if there is such a good seed of wheat, then the people of the north will no longer suffer, and the treasury will soon be abundant, great."
The emperor was so excited that he grabbed a handful of wheat that he had brought with him, and looked at it again and again.
"Immortal, God bless me Daming."
The emperor immediately summoned his chief in charge of the farmer, and gave him the small bag of wheat seeds, with a book on the fertile land.
"Hurry up and find the most fertile land to try planting, and when the harvest is time, tell me that I will personally go to supervise the harvest."
"Yes, Emperor"
Don't think that the emperor will be gullible if he reports to the next report, he wants people to practice, and if it is not bad with what he said, the emperor will decentralize the reward.
So we have to wait, but the Yuan family is not in a hurry, it has been implemented on his side, and the people are willing to follow suit.
He first promoted it within the county, and Zhu County Ling and Wang Zhifu had long known about it, and as soon as they got the exact news, they came to Qiao Mai to ask for wheat seeds.
Anyway, the matter of asking for merit has been reported, so Qiao Mai generously gave Zhu County 5,000 catties of wheat seeds, and gave Wang Zhifu 10,000 catties, so that they could watch the promotion.
Because there is a guarantee from the government, and it is a free wheat seed, many croppers are tempted.
The promotion of new wheat seeds in other places is not so smooth, but it is very smooth in the north of Shexian County, not only smooth, but even there are long queues at the Yamen.
Qiao Mai is not in a hurry, if he wants to promote the new wheat seeds, he can't do it without time.
She also has a lot of new torture seeds in her hands, all of which she provided for the Ming Dynasty, like upland rice, like high-yield cotton, all of which are urgently needed materials for the Ming Dynasty at present.
Only when ordinary people are well fed, clothed, and do not worry about eating and drinking, can the Ming Dynasty be truly rich.
Although Qiao Mai did not give Zhu County an order to raise saplings, this guy encouraged the people to plant more trees, and he wrote the benefits of planting trees on the notice and asked the officials to go to the villages and towns to publicize them.
He also lobbied the wealthy households in the county to donate money and materials, and first planted hardy trees on both sides of the official road, but only in his county seat.
This guy is just a little selfish, and the fertilizer is not cheap at all for the county orders of other counties, and he only tosses in his own territory.
After hearing this, the county magistrates of other counties finally called on the people of their own counties to follow suit and start planting trees.
All nine counties of the Acropolis have begun to plant trees.
The farmer himself will raise seedlings, and some trees will survive by breaking a branch and inserting it into the ground, so many villages have begun to plant trees in front of and behind the house.
Many people only know how to plant trees that grow quickly, and some people plant fruit trees in their yards.
There are all kinds of planting, each has its own careful thinking, no matter what, the direction of planting trees is right, at least the branches of the tree can be used as woodcutter every year.
In the north, there is no firewood in winter, and the benefits of planting trees are very obvious, not to mention that they can be used at home after they grow into wood, and if they are picked and sold after the fruit is born, it is also an income.
Good growth is long-term, because of the early tree in Shexian County, there was a harvest in a few years.
Many families who planted pine trees with the county order also began to learn to cut oil and sell oil, no matter how much they earned, as long as they sold it to the workshop, it was an income.
This is undoubtedly a great benefit for the people of Shexian County, who are bitterly cold.
Yuan Jiaqi showed Qiao Mai the income of the workshop in the first month, "Lady, look at it, this is only the first month, the safflower oil workshop, excluding all expenses, has made a net profit of five hundred taels of silver, and this is only the pine oil of the first forest, the shampoo earned six hundred taels of silver, and the pine oil earned more than one hundred taels of silver, adding up to more than one thousand taels."
"Well, it's more than 10,000 taels a year, which is not bad, and when those forests grow, more oil will be produced."
"Yes, I believe that it won't be long before the things in our workshop will be sold all over the Ming Dynasty."
