"Father, we have looked at the map, and some people who know the situation there have told us that the local soil is not good for growing food, and we have to see how the people live."

Zhu Li looked worried, afraid that it would be too late and the people in his fiefdom would starve to death.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the third child of his family, and after a few breaths: "Okay!" I can think of the people. That being the case, you have to learn more, and next year you ...... Where are you going? ”

"Go to the summer harvest and go to the local summer harvest, otherwise there will be no food to eat. Ship more ships for me, I will bring dried sea fish over, and exchange the fish meat for food with the people. ”

Zhu Li obviously thought about this problem, it was too early, and the people of the fiefdom were in a state of scarcity.

At the same time, he also pondered the time when the steam engine ship was built, and the team had to bring food, the fish and meat were the most suitable, and there were many fish in the sea.

As for the fact that he has never been far away, he is not afraid, there are people from Xiaqiu Village with him, all the way to Helin, he can keep his two brothers safe, and it is no problem to keep himself safe.

"Take a look, maybe you can bring some food, there is a lot of land in Xiaqiu Village, and the food left over from the seeds will be taken to your eldest brother and sent to the people before the seeds, where are the people not the people?"

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't say it to death, there is still a long way to go next year, and if something happens, it needs to be adjusted in time.

Zhu Li looked at his eldest brother, Zhu Biao smiled and nodded, he didn't care whether he sent it or not, there was a lot of land in Xiaqiu Village, and the food couldn't be eaten, so just let him deal with it.

Last year, he left early, and the grain in Xiaqiu Village was taken by Zhu Yuanzhang to the people in Fujian.

There are few fields in the area, and the hillsides have been planted with sugar cane by the army, and there are not many people left.

When the local people get food, their hearts are down, and there is no need for additional food this year, and the people sometimes lack food for a month or two.

When I saw the harvest, there was no grain to eat, so I could only dig wild vegetables, and the people were so hungry that they couldn't do anything when the grain was harvested.

Eat while harvesting, and when the harvest is finished, the body is recovering, how can you have the energy to grow another crop of grain? Fujian can plant two or three crops.

If there are many large animals, it will be easy for the people.

"What do I take? Give me 5,000 soldiers and 2,000, no, a thousand craftsmen will be, there are few people, the consumption of food is small, and no one will assassinate me. ”

Zhu Li took the initiative to position himself, he is not valuable, he can be a little manpower, and he is worried about the food he brings at the moment.

Xiaqiu Village has indica rice, japonica rice, and wheat, and now it is soybeans that need to be harvested, and it is okay to eat tofu with beans in the past.

"Wheat, bread, eat. Well! Hey, hey, hey! Zhu Wentian found an opportunity to brush up on his presence.

"Bring noodles?" When Zhu Li heard the bun, he thought of flour.

"His Royal Highness the King of Jin, Han Han said to bring wheat seeds, we will harvest the winter wheat here first, and after harvesting all the way to the north, all the way to the people to exchange seeds.

When they arrived at the Taiyuan Mansion, the last seeds were exchanged for the local people, who just finished harvesting the winter wheat there.

We are equivalent to eating the grain we have grown, and the people get good seeds. ”

The lieutenant explained that how could he bring noodles over, anyway, he would go on a trip, and by the way, he would deal with the matter of seed exchange, and the court would not need to arrange manpower.

Zhu Fan expressed his support on the side: "Yes, let's bring the seeds, go from me, I see what good things I have there, bring some to you." ”

"Second brother, you have to leave me enough seeds, you can't divide them all."

Zhu Li said in advance, don't wait until your own place, the seeds are gone.

"The third brother can rest assured, some good seeds were originally planted for the elder brother, and they planted them again.

You have to tell your father, let your father send you a ship with a steam engine, and while there is still water in the Yellow River, bring the sauce of our house to your people.

Let's give you a cost price, buy it with the money you make from the deli, and owe it if it's not enough.

Let's bring you dry sauce, with little water, after sending it once, the fleet is not in a hurry to come back, and immediately run to the salt lake to get salt, and then send it to the people.

After pouring it a few times, there is too much salt in the people's homes, and their hearts will collapse, and there are many things that are good for the body in the sauce. ”

Zhu Fan helped his younger brother come up with an idea, whether to go next year or not, what should the people of Taiyuan Mansion do this year? It's not as good as Datong in the north!

Zhu Li nodded again and again, and looked at his father again.

"Hmmm! Forty ships will be given to you, and this one will be brought to you when you go back, and you will try to sail. Zhu Yuanzhang agreed, pointing to the 2,000-stone sea boat by the river.

This ship has advantages in carrying capacity and speed, it can carry more than 100 tons of things at a time, and it can stop on the way to replenish coal and give capacity to other items.

"Thank you, Father." Zhu Li grinned.

"When the people of your fiefdom are having a better time, take care of the surroundings, all the people of the Ming Dynasty." Zhu Yuanzhang made a request.

"Father, don't worry, the people from Xiaqiu Village will go over with the child, and they will arrange it." Zhu Li directly threw the matter to Xiaqiu Village.

"That's it!" Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it, his son was still young, and he really couldn't manage too many things.

While they were talking, they came to the place where the rabbits were kept.

Previously, Xiaqiu Village did not raise rabbits, but later the village began to raise rabbits because the livestock transfer farm needed to assist in raising animals, and the bamboo rats could not adapt to all places.

The raising over there at Chaoyangmen is followed here.

Intensive breeding, hygiene is the most important, hired people clean every day, rabbits reproduce fast, as long as the feed can keep up, the temperature is maintained well, a year can increase thirty times.

There are 30,000 of them in the village at the moment, and they are either raised or left.

The others were taken and sent to Henan Mansion on the route Zhu Biao had traveled to raise them in the transit field there.

Some of it was given to twenty-one other villages, where they raised rabbits together.

Other villages grow pasture, which is suitable for raising rabbits, and the key is that they are willing to learn how to raise rabbits.

Zhu Yuanzhang sniffed: "If you don't go in, big houses, will be expanded next year?" ”

"If you don't expand, you will start eating it this winter to provide meat for the people of Nanjing, and by the way, there will be rabbit skins.

Then according to the current base to breed, there are not enough manpower, there is not enough place, and the big rabbits, especially those with few cubs, are eaten one after another.

By the end of the year, 10,000 rabbits could be provided every month, and the other 21 villages could basically take out 2,000.

In this way, 50,000 rabbits, 50,000 rabbit skins, and about 200,000 catties of meat are slaughtered in a month.

Their village could eat it themselves, and the rabbit skins were saved, disposed of, and sold to department stores. ”

The captain also snorts, intensively breeding, no matter how to clean up, there is a smell, the key is not to bathe the rabbit at any time, it is easy to wash to death.

The general situation is to change the rabbit cages to the next house, which is cleaned, disinfected and ventilated.

Wait for a decade, then move the other side and clean up the shed. Upside down.

"Let's go, let's see the bamboo rat, which is better, bamboo rat meat or rabbit meat?" Zhu Yuanzhang never thought rabbits and bamboo rats were cute, and he first thought about eating them after seeing them.

"Bamboo rats are delicious, and rabbit meat is not as good as bamboo rat meat, it's much worse. Bamboo rat meat is also stronger than rabbits in terms of medicinal use, and the fur is softer. ”

The lieutenant has raised the status of the bamboo rat, and the rabbit is not as good as it, but he has to eat it, and no one can run away.
