Chapter 376 Sheep eats people
Chimu Haiya was frightened into a cold sweat by himself, the scorching wind blowing under the grape trellis actually made him feel cold all over, and a slight chill appeared in his heart... The expression on his face was wonderful, full of fear and regret at the same time It was flattering again, several completely different emotions made the facial muscles almost out of control, extremely embarrassing.
Fang Jun glanced at him with a half-smile, waved his hands and said comfortingly: "Don't worry about it, brother. Is this the kind of person who is convicted for his words? It's nothing serious for me, but I just saw that there are a lot of wasteland in Gaochang country. , the aquatic plants are also considered plentiful, especially the luxuriant flocks of sheep, and I want to open a wool spinning factory in the spring of tomorrow, and I still need the support of all of you here."
Another thin old man was afraid that the old man Chimu Haiya would talk nonsense again, so as not to get everyone involved, he blurted out: "Please rest assured, Lord Hou, your business is our business, on the land of Gaochang... What..." He bit his tongue hard, swallowed the half of the words, and quickly added: "I didn't say anything!"
After speaking, I was sweating profusely, and looked at Akagi Hague sympathetically. I wanted to express my sincerity, but it was really hard to say...
Fang Jun didn't notice that he almost said "I love so and so in Gaochang". Hearing this, he nodded in relief and said, "That's the case, I thank you for your kindness. Starting next year, For those wastelands and sand dunes that are not suitable for growing grapes, please encourage the local farmers to raise more sheep and graze more. But rest assured, my business is about a long flow of water, a win-win situation for all parties, and never Treating partners badly. The wool spinning factory of this official does not accept sheep, only wool, and the price is at least five times the current price!"
When he said that, the eyeballs of these people were all round!
Although Gaochang Kingdom is located in an oasis surrounded by deserts, there is not much land suitable for growing food, but there are many places where grazing can be done, and grazing is also the source of livelihood for many people.
Many sand dunes are not suitable for growing crops, even grapes. The sandy land does not store water or fertilizer, so it is difficult for crops to grow.But it’s not that nothing grows. On the surface of these dunes, some low weeds will grow, and these weeds are extremely drought-tolerant.
Most of these pastures are small and uneven, which is not suitable for raising horses, but it is very suitable for raising sheep.
Persian blankets are famous all over the world and extremely expensive.Because of the unimpeded Silk Road, this technology was introduced to the Western Regions a long time ago, and all countries have mastered this technology, so the demand for wool has always been great, and the profit of raising sheep is not small, at least it is much better than growing grain .
Now that Fang Jun promised that the price of wool would be more than five times that, wouldn't raising sheep make a fortune?
In order to make up for his slip of the tongue just now, Chimu Haiya was afraid of leaving a bad impression on Fang Jun, so he immediately stated: "After the old man returned, he has been keeping a lot of sheep since he was appointed as his clansman. This kind of herding is what we Uighur people are best at! In addition, the old man I will destroy all the farmlands in the clan that are below the output and turn them into pastures to support Lord Hou!"
He thought, anyway, the land in Gaochang country is not suitable for growing food. Instead of letting those poor people only produce a little food every year, it is better to turn it into a pasture to raise sheep. First, he can show his full support for Lord Hou, and second, he can also Increase a lot of income, wool is worth much more than grain...
When he said that, how could the rest of them be willing to lag behind?Immediately, they all expressed their support for Lord Hou's business.
Akagi Hague will settle accounts, who won't?
Not only can he show his loyalty, but he can also get benefits. This Hou Ye is really a "win-win" in doing business...
Fang Jun had a look of emotion on his face, and immediately patted his thigh and said: "Not much else to say, we know the friendship between you all! Since you are so supportive, we have to give you some benefits to repay you. First, this official knows Gaochang has always been short of food, from now on, every time a caravan enters Gaochang, this official will traffic the grain from Guanzhong to this point, sell it at a low price, do not make any money, and just repay you all!"
When everyone heard it, they immediately burst into smiles!
The lack of food in Gaochang has been a big problem in history, and it is getting worse.
Because of Gaochang's prosperity, most of the refugees from countries in the Western Regions migrated here. There are more and more people, but less and less food.Moreover, any land suitable for growing grain is also suitable for growing grapes, and the profit of growing grapes is several times that of grain...
In the past, Datang had very strict control over grain. Caravans from the Western Regions could take away any commodity from Datang, even a small amount of ironware, but they could never take away any grain!
Well now, with Fang Jun's promise, there will be no food shortages in Gaochang from now on. Not only can the population grow rapidly, attracting refugees from the entire Western Regions to migrate here, but also the land that grows food can be used to grow grapes... …
This Lord Hou is simply the God of Wealth!
Fang Jun looked at the smiling faces with a smile, but his heart was full of joy.
He dares to guarantee that as long as enough food can be supplied, then from then on, Gaochang will firmly rely on Datang, without a trace of dissatisfaction!
The hand he played was inspired by the "sheep eat people" enclosure movement in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries in Britain, the Netherlands and other countries...
As long as the "Eastern Datang Company" can open up routes to the East Ocean and even the South Ocean in the future, it will greatly promote the prosperity of the wool textile industry and greatly increase the demand for commodities.Even in the current Datang territory, there is a lot of demand for wool spinning supplies.
The wool weaving industry prospered and the demand for wool soared, raising sheep became a very profitable business.
When the profits of glucose and wool are seen by everyone, no matter how many people here, or the common people in the entire Gaochang Kingdom, who will have the heart to grow food?
Landlords who are mercenary will definitely fence their own land and public land to graze sheep, and forcibly occupy farmers' land.Farmers lost the land on which they depended to support their families, and they took care of the old and the young, and wandered to strange places.
Where to wander?
Of course it is Datang...
The entire Western Regions are short of food, and Gaochang has no food output, so why should it be choked by the Tang Dynasty?
A grape and a piece of wool can hold Gaochang tightly in the palm of your hand!
As for whether there will be too much wool and the supply exceeds demand, there is no need to worry at all.
"Sheep cannibalize people" is a national behavior of several European countries at the same time, so the output of woolen products is huge, and the products must be sold all over the world by relying on new air routes.
And how big can Gaochang be?Even if all the sheep are raised, how much can the output be?
The two are completely incomparable.
As long as these two tricks are promoted in Gaochang, it will be tantamount to tightly controlling Gaochang's economic lifeline. If they betray Datang, these big landlords and big merchants will use it to lose huge profits and cut off the supply of food.At that time, even if a foreign enemy invaded and the Tang Dynasty had to send troops, the Gaochang people themselves would fight the enemy desperately with red eyes!
Fang Jun was in a good mood, took out a memorial from the box next to him, threw it in front of several people, and said with a smile: "Second, I have already met with His Majesty, in view of the special geographical location of Gaochang Kingdom, and the real power factions of Gaochang Kingdom For his loyalty, I request His Majesty to list Gaochang as an autonomous place. In addition to the garrison and the appointment of the highest officials, the imperial court will vote for eight members of the council hall from all the people of Gaochang. Under the leadership of Datang, they will jointly participate in the Gaochang The country's daily management, policy formulation..."
A series of surprises has already shocked these people to death...
Pu Quluo couldn't believe his ears: "Your Majesty, you mean that the officials of Gaochang Kingdom are elected by all the people, not appointed by the Tang Dynasty?"
Fang Jun pointed to the memorial: "This is a copy. The original has been sent to His Majesty for a preview by the official, and it will be decided by several prime ministers in the Political Affairs Hall."
Young and old can gather their heads together for a while, and can't wait to read it...
Fang Jun himself is very proud of this idea of "popular election".
If all the officials were appointed by Datang, it would invisibly increase the burden on Datang, and if there was a slight mishandling, it would easily arouse the rejection of Gaochang people, thinking that this was unfair treatment by Datang.If it is instigated by someone with a heart, it will easily cause social turmoil.
But if you are officials elected by yourself, no matter what kind of decision you make, you have the nerve to push it to Datang?If there is a real disturbance, the army's suppression is justifiable, and it will not cause social conflicts, let alone repulsion.
Still the same sentence, as long as the economic lifeline is firmly grasped, the land of Gaochang will never fly...
