Chapter 16, Harvest
Ning Yue has been paying attention to the issuance of Li Xukong's various decrees, and seeing that the two good policies he delivered have begun to be implemented, his heart is also relaxed, and he ordered the garrisons everywhere to support these two decrees.
Ning Yue knew very well that after Li Xukong came to take up his post in Qianzhou, his post as the chief governor of Qianzhou was hung high, and with only the post of captain of the Qianzhou garrison, there was no way to implement the good policy in his hand by himself.
Like him, Li Xukong also fell into an embarrassing situation, although he had the official position of Qianzhou Mu, but he did not have the real power of a large number of garrisons in Ning Yue's hands, if he issued an order indiscriminately, as long as Ning Yue did not agree, he would not be able to do anything big.
So after this night banquet and secret talk, although the two did not explain it on their lips, they silently had a tacit understanding in their hearts, the relationship between the two can now be regarded as a compromise alliance, as long as it is beneficial to the development of Qianzhou, the two will work together and unanimously with the outside world.
In this way, Ning Yue and Li Xukong will be at peace with each other, and the decrees issued by the two will quickly spread to the entire Qianzhou, assist each other, and implement them as quickly as possible.
Ning Yue took advantage of the appropriate relaxation of relations with Li Xukong, intensified his efforts, and began to implement the tuntian system in the army, a large number of soldiers opened pits and wasteland, and countless fertile fields continued to appear in Qianzhou.
Due to the unified management of Ning Yue's army, the matter of Tuntian was far faster than Li Xukong's collection of fishing and hunting and the political leadership of changing agriculture and mulberry.
In this matter, Li Xukong did not support Shang Jia as much, so under his promotion, although many fishing and hunting people changed to farming, they were not as neat and unified as Ning Yue, which made him waste some brains, and finally the fishing and hunting farming became much more average, but it did not achieve the expected effect.
The more this was the case, the more Li Xukong paid more attention to the matter of trading with the neighboring countries of Linjun, and indeed achieved a lot of results, successfully opening up several new trade routes.
The two forces were at peace with each other, until the autumn of the year, the taxes of the merchants on Li Xukong's side rose sharply, and the Tuntian on Ningyue's side obtained a grand harvest.
Ning Yue gathered the one-year-old harvest from all over the country, filled up all the garrison logistics in several places, and the grain obtained was enough to support the basic consumption of 100,000 garrisons for more than five years.
After calculating the harvest, Ning Yue was also a little surprised.
However, after his analysis, he found that the Jiuxiao Heavenly Realm is vast and sparsely populated, and the land is very fertile, and people originally did not pay attention to farming at all.
Therefore, now that his garrison attaches importance to farming and strengthens agricultural management, the grain production has easily increased several times.
With a large amount of grain, Ning Yue's mind was active, and he began to imagine video processing, trying to make the grain in his hand into finished ingredients that were easy to preserve, and sell them to the surrounding states and counties and countries through the trade routes opened up by Li Xukong.
It's just that not long after this sales strategy began, a large number of products were unsalable, and they were suspended by Luo Yaoji.
Luo Yaoji and Nan Sheng gathered some information and came to report to Ning Yue.
Luo Yaoji got straight to the point and said to Ning Yue seriously: "Boss, this time the whole army makes finished ingredients, which seems to be a good way, but after the plan was implemented, we found that it was too unrealistic, and most of the finished ingredients produced were unmarketable. ”
Ning Yue frowned slightly, food should be the most suitable commodity for a large number of flexible sales, how could such a problem occur.
Nan Sheng took out a few pieces of information, handed them to Ning Yue to browse, and explained on the side: "Most of the finished ingredients we produce are supplied to the surrounding states, counties and countries, but there is no shortage of food in these areas, and all kinds of finished snacks can be produced locally......
Luo Yaoji said: "Or these finished ingredients of ours are featureless, most of the products are unsalable and cannot be sold, and many merchants are reluctant to sell our products, and they will return the goods when they come back." ”
Ning Yue pondered for a while, and found that he had indeed ignored the problem of grain production in the places near the merchants, but it was really difficult to sell ordinary food.
Ning Yue looked at Nan Sheng and Luo Yaoji, and asked: "We have hoarded so much grain in our hands, but we can't make much money from buying and selling grain and grass, and we have to take a lot of manpower and material resources, since you have come to me, what can you do?"
Nan Sheng and Luo Yaoji glanced at each other, and finally Luo Yaoji spoke: "Other products are not easy to say, but Luo Yanshi gave a good idea, saying that people from all countries have their own good food, but there is never a shortage of people in the world who love to drink, we have a lot of food in our hands, it is better to make wine." ”
"Winemaking?" Ning Yue realized when he heard this, but his frowning brows still didn't disperse, and after thinking about it, he asked again: "Since Luo Yanshi proposed like this, do you have a winemaker who knows how to make wine?"
Luo Yaoji replied: "Nansheng sent people to investigate everywhere, Qianzhou originally produced some wine, but it was all from the Yi royal family, although the local winemakers can make wine, but they are all ordinary homebrews that are not excellent. ”
Nan Sheng said: "I have mastered a lot of winemakers who can be recruited at any time, but we still lack a recipe for winemaking, but the general manager can rest assured, Luo Yanshi has collected a lot of good wines from other states and countries, and let a few winemakers study it carefully, as long as we can make a similar recipe, we can buy the winery at any time and start making wine." ”
Ning Yue groaned again, the grain and grass were abundant, winemaking was indeed a suitable related industry, but he did not have a suitable wine recipe in his hands, and he still hoped to make an industry in other aspects.
Luo Yaoji and Nan Sheng watched Ning Yue thinking quietly, there was no good way in their hearts, so they waited quietly on the side, but at this moment, there was a fluctuation of soul power in the side hall, and then Bai Luoluo happily jumped into Ning Yue's main hall.
Seeing that Luo Yaoji and Nan Sheng were there, Bai Luoluo also said hello with a smile, and then jumped to Ning Yue's side all of a sudden, and said with a smile: "My chief brother, what are you worried about, I just found some delicious food, let's eat together." ”
Bai Luoluo said as he lifted up a bag he was carrying beside him and poured all the contents on the table in front of Ning Yue.
Ning Yue was about to smile bitterly and chat with this lively and sensible sister, but as soon as his eyes fell on the table, he couldn't take it back immediately.
"It's ...... Canned luncheon meat, and lollipops, sandwich biscuits, potato chips!"
Ning Yue's eyes fell on Bai Luoluo's body at once, as if he was looking at a large treasure.
