Li Kuan can fully imagine how many materials are needed for the family's current practice.

If nothing else, one cow and sheep per family, with the population of more than 30 million people in Sassanid Persia, at least five million cattle and sheep are needed.

The family swallowed Sassanid Persia and could get some supplements, but there were still a large number of holes that needed to be filled.

After the family's own ranch was filled in, there were still some holes, so they could only buy it from Datang.

"Suddenly, I found that if they came to Datang to buy, I could gain another wave of favors."

Li Kuan smiled strangely.

The pastures on the Datang grassland are divided into three parts, one part is owned by the Xia people and ordinary people of the Tang Dynasty, one part is the state-run pasture, and some part is the relationship network of the Chu Wangfu.

The state-run ranch is directly calculated on the basis of one million, with about six million cattle and about six million sheep, which is the largest.

The Xia and Tang people had the second least cattle and sheep in the hands of ordinary grazing people, because they had always been a big producer of ham processing factories, and they lived by grazing, and when the cattle and sheep reached a certain number, they would be slaughtered and sold if they were not good at raising.

Therefore, the combined number of cattle and sheep of the Xia and Tang people is about 2.5 million yuan.

The ranch of the Chu Wangfu network has always been managed by Li Kuan and the big ranch.

It is the least cattle and sheep on the grassland, because there are horses and deer, dogs, geese and other pastures in the middle, and the number of cattle and sheep is about 1.7 million.

Don't think that the relationship network of the Chu Wangfu is small, because they are also one of the big slaughterers, and Li Kuan has to slaughter cattle and sheep if he wants to make a profit for the ranch.

It's just that most of the cattle and sheep they slaughter are old cattle and sheep.

When the cows and sheep do not produce milk, it is the day of slaughter.

Li Kuan calculated the cattle and sheep he had on hand, and found that it was no problem to support a batch of Central Asian families, but he had to make a report.

"Since you have to support sooner or later, it's better to start preparing now, they occupy Central Asia early, which is also a good thing for me and Datang."

Li Kuan, who was in a good mood, was about to start writing a letter when someone came to report that Cui Hao was coming.

Why did this guy get here?

When he saw Cui Hao, he stared at a pair of dark circles under his eyes.

"Why are you here?"

Du Xuan is quite strange.

"I've come to discuss something with you."

Cui Hao shrugged his shoulders and said that he didn't want to come either, but something was wrong.

"The family sent me a message, and they sent a group of Central Asian people to visit Datang and let them see what is called quality of life."

"Then let them go back to propaganda to make it easier to appease people."

"I'll talk to you."

Cui Hao didn't expect that their family would gain a foothold in the Western Regions so quickly.

His brow furrowed slightly.

"Tell me, can't you just arrange it yourself?"

"Dingxiang, Shuofang, various large ranches, these places can be visited casually, and they are all symbols of prosperity."

Li Kuan felt that there was something to apply for.

"The main thing is to visit the steel mill, the wool textile mill and other places together."

"You also know that the wool mill and the steel mill are more important,"

"The former represents the secondary exploitation of sheep, and the latter represents the guarantee of force."

"These people who came said that they were ordinary people, but in fact, they were all new representatives elected by the Communist Party of China in this group, and they all knew how to read and write."

Well, having said this, Li Kuan understands that this is to let them see what is called the gap in life, and let them understand the great future of following us.

"Yes, it's in the support regulations."

Li Kuan nodded easily in agreement.

Cui Hao breathed a sigh of relief, afraid that Li Kuan would not agree.

But the wool mill and the steel mill are really important.

After pulling this, Cui Hao hesitated and started another question.

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu, isn't the market for sweaters and cotton clothes of the people of the Tang Dynasty saturated?"

"It's been six years since this market was officially introduced."

As soon as he said this, Li Kuan had a toothache, and said angrily: "Not only is it not saturated, but the gap is getting bigger and bigger." ”

"The economy in Datang is getting better and better, and the price of woolen sweaters is not too expensive, and most families can buy two pieces for their families with a month's salary."

"And because many areas were basically before, the factory recruitment quota was arranged by the government, one family and one person, many people have been divided, such as two young men and women in a household, at most two children, not counting farming, men have 500 yuan a month to work, a woolen jacket used to cost 60 yuan, sold for 120 yuan, a family of four, each person to buy two pieces is only 960 yuan, that is, two months' wages."

"The market is huge, and families who have been buying woolen sweaters for about five years in Zhenguan have now started to buy new woolen sweaters."

"The people found that they didn't need to wear one piece for decades, and they were not as poor as before, one piece of clothing, and their father wore it after their son wore it."

"The market is saturated, let's go in the next life."

"So, after supporting the cattle and sheep for your family, I will let you transport some of the wool to Datang."

There are so many sheep on the grassland, and they are not the sheep that specialize in high-yield wool in Europe, and Li Kuan is also uncomfortable.

Cui Hao frowned, they also need woolen clothes in Central Asia, and if they send some of them to Datang, it will be more difficult, and he was in a bad mood, he asked another question: "But, hasn't Datang already swallowed the Western Regions, isn't cotton producing cotton clothes?" There are substitutions that do not keep the market running. ”

Just now, he had already heard what Li Kuan meant, the gap was so big that the market could not operate normally.

The reason he asked before was also that he was afraid that Li Kuan would let them send wool to Datang.

Nodding helplessly, Li Kuan said bitterly: "Where is the yield of cotton, and you still have to make quilts." ”

"The market for quilts themselves cannot be saturated."

"The Your Majesty above our heads, the target is that the people of the Tang Dynasty will have at least two quilts per person."

Li Kuan thought for a while and said bluntly: "I won't fool you, I have already sent someone to start researching the duvet and down jacket." ”

"The yield of wool and cotton can't go up, so I can only find substitutes from other places."

"Do you have any questions?"

Cui Hao thinks it's too difficult, didn't everyone compress materials and exploit the people at higher prices before, why is it that now there are not enough materials?

"Cui Hao, I know what you think, you don't want to send wool to Datang to fill Datang's winter coat market."

"But I tell you bluntly, if you don't agree to transport, Your Majesty will not sell you sheep, and if you agree, if you don't carry it out, Your Majesty will dare to send someone to beat you."

"Because now there is a trend of price speculation in woolen clothes, in the eyes of His Majesty, this is not good news, he feels that this is a precursor to the coming of troubled times, and he has to solve it."

"Your Majesty's sense of crisis is very sufficient, your family can watch it."

Li Kuan, who saw Cui Hao's careful thinking, used the simplest words to solve Cui Hao's thoughts.

Cui Hao had a headache, he rubbed his temples to relieve the intracranial pressure in his brain, and said tiredly: "In other words, for Datang, there is also a lot of pressure on the shortage of materials." ”

"Why do I always feel unrealistic?"

Sighing, Li Kuan searched for it from his desk, and finally took out a piece of paper and handed it to Cui Hao.

"This is a three-province proposal that I got from my private intelligence."

"I don't think it will take long to get through."

Cui Hao took it suspiciously, what the hell is proposing.
