Chapter 475 New Concept of Agriculture

Liu Yao couldn't help being unhappy, he knew very well what the emergence of a new oil crop represented.

In the past, why did the soldiers do small exercises for five days and a big exercise every month?It's not that I'm lazy, but the conditions simply don't allow it!Training means three meals a day. The more intense the training, the more fat needs to be replenished. Otherwise, the soldier's body will completely collapse for up to two months. Instead of training the elite, the soldier will be trained to death .

The question is, where does so much meat come from these days?Game is not without, the fat content is too low.It is not as simple as oil and water, eat more, and the consumption of military rations will increase.However, the grain production is not enough. 10 people practice every day. After three months, all the grain that Yangzhou just harvested this year can be used up.

In this way, there is no need to go out to fight this year. In a few months, camp bombing and riots may be possible.

The key to all this lies in the word 'oil and water'.In this era when pork is eaten with fat, few people can understand that the common people can enjoy the happiness of oil and water.

"Cooking needs to be prepared, but I have already ordered my subordinates to take some peanuts to press for oil." After Li Ming finished speaking, he clapped his hands, and naturally a subordinate brought up a pot of peanut oil and a basket of oil residue.

"The pot on the left..." Li Ming came to the side of the oil pot, "This is peanut oil, who wants to taste it?"

"Me!" Many aristocratic families responded one after another, and even Liu Yao was ready to move.

"Everyone has a share!" Li Ming looked at his subordinates. Not long after, someone took out a lot of cups, and then the subordinates holding the oil pot began to pour some peanut oil into each cup. The quantity was not much, and they came to participate There are a lot of people, and there are not many people.

Fortunately, this thing is not a drink in the first place, so it’s good to taste it. Everyone held the cup in their hands and asked about it. It has a strong fragrance, much better than rapeseed oil.Dip it with your fingers and taste it, it is indeed fragrant and delicious.

Many aristocratic families couldn't help but looked at each other's companions around them, and everyone's eyes showed a look of 'getting rich'.

"I know that everyone is very interested in peanuts, but there is another by-product, you can take a look..." Li Ming smiled, and asked someone to bring over the oil residue, "This is the oil residue after oil extraction, everyone can Look, even if it is like this, it is still edible, and the taste is not bad. Even if people don’t eat it, it can be fed to pigs, which can speed up the fattening speed of domestic pigs.

I think everyone already knows the secret that domestic pigs must be castrated to be delicious. In addition, cooking methods are also obtained through various means.Raise some pigs while planting peanuts, then pig manure can be used to fertilize the field, pork can be sold, pig hair can be used to make brushes and writing brushes, peanuts can be grown, oil residue and branches can be fed to pigs, and peanut oil can be sold , It's a huge profit at all. "

"My lord, how much do we need to pay to get the peanut seeds?" Lu Jun came out and asked.

"You don't need to pay any price!" After Li Ming finished speaking, he had seen the commotion below, and immediately pressed his hands to signal everyone to be quiet, and then continued, "I can give you the seeds for free, and teach you the mature cultivation methods , but the seeds are scarce, and the average distribution is about [-] catties per family, which is mainly used for seeding. After next year, the planting will be gradually expanded, and it is estimated that it will take two to three years to start making profits.

Fortunately, it is easy to grow, and it can also be planted in some sandy land, so it will not occupy so much good land.For specific techniques, someone will come to teach you later. "

When Li Ming said that it would take two years to make a profit, many people were indeed disappointed. Later, when they heard that there was no need for fertile land, their minds naturally became active again.Places like sandy land or tidal flats are not suitable for growing food at all. If you can grow peanuts on it, it will not affect the original fertile land. In this way, the deal is still very cost-effective.

"My lord, you provide seeds and technology for free, what should we pay? My lord, just say what you want, otherwise we will not feel at ease!" Lu Jun complained.

The aristocratic families nodded secretly. To be honest, they were also worried, how could Li Ming give up so many benefits for free?He's not stupid either. Looking at the Tao family, they were almost wiped out by this guy.

"There must be a price! It's nothing to say, but repeating the same old tune, I want to promote new agricultural technologies and new ideas. If you cooperate, it will benefit you in the future. Naturally, you will not treat everyone badly!" Li Ming looked at everyone.

To be honest, Li Ming has already begun to promote new agricultural technologies, but everyone may be a bit hindered, so they are not very cooperative.Now that the benefits have been distributed, everyone naturally feels that the idea of ​​"the promotion has been promoted, so let's do it like this", so they responded one after another, expressing their willingness to cooperate with the court to promote new agricultural technologies.

"My lord, if you understand the new technology, what does the new concept mean?" Zhu Zhun asked suddenly.

"The new concept is related to the promotion of new technologies. Among other things, I also know that everyone is worried because the grain cannot be sold at a good price. Many people do not know how to manage and cannot make money from farming. I am afraid that they will use their skills to hate Are you on?" Li Ming looked at the crowd.

"Don't dare, dare not!" Everyone responded quickly, but what they were thinking in their hearts was unknown.

"I know you are resentful. It doesn't matter. After all, when reforming, the court must first consider the interests of the country. Increasing food production and income is an inevitable result. No one can stop it. Anyone who stops it is against the country and the court. Confronting the people living in this world, this kind of people, this kind of family, even the Jiuzu deserves it!" Li Ming looked at the crowd, and the murderous intent immediately filled the air, scaring many families of aristocratic families into trembling.

The heads of the three generations of the Tao family in Danyang are still piled up at the gate of Wanling, and their criminal evidence is listed on it.People who come and go spit on their heads. It can be said that they will bear infamy if they die.

"But!" Li Ming suddenly made a turning point, "You are attached to the imperial court, and the imperial court will naturally not treat you badly. Win-win cooperation is the core of getting along between the imperial court and the aristocratic family. It is not good for any party to suffer losses!"

"Yes, yes!" Lu Jun and Zhu Zhun responded one after another, and the following families also responded belatedly.

"Food is not so profitable, so easy to say!" Li Ming smiled, "First of all, increase the output of food to ensure that the people in Yangzhou will not go hungry, and even the government will come forward to purchase to ensure that everyone will not suffer. In this Basically, why don't you plant and cultivate some plants unique to the local area, such as tea, such as a certain kind of wood, such as a certain kind of medicine or specialty products.

For example, how to further increase the yield and taste of this rice, so that the low-end does not go to the high-end!After you're full, don't you all want some good rice and vegetables?Don't you want to eat oil and meat?Do you want to eat some fruit and drink some tea after dinner?This is the new concept of agriculture I put forward. To sum it up, it is the concept of 'cultivating special products'. After deducting the necessary low-end industries, why not try to take the high-end route? "

After a pause, Li Ming continued: "The government is going to introduce a new policy. Any new technology, after confirmation, the creator will retain the patent right of this technology. For a maximum of 40 years, he can monopolize this technology, and Sell ​​this technology for a fee. Whoever uses this technology must give you patent fees. Anyone who uses this technology without consent is considered a crime. While all illegal gains will be confiscated, there will be prison and Huge fines."

This is the first time I have heard of this kind of statement. The aristocratic families whispered to each other. It seems that they are not quite used to this kind of regulation, and they are a little familiar with this concept. It seems that they have heard or seen it before, but they can’t remember it.

"Actually, there's nothing strange about it. Everyone has been preventing ordinary people from accessing books easily. In fact, it can also be regarded as a kind of patent behavior...Of course, this is not the topic we are talking about..." Li Ming did not elaborate, did not necessary.

Strictly speaking, the control of knowledge should be a kind of monopoly behavior. Patents can be recognized, but monopoly should be cracked down when necessary.In the short term, there is no way to force the aristocratic families to give up their monopoly on knowledge, so there is no need to discuss this issue in depth.If one accidentally touches the sensitive nerves of these guys, I'm afraid that he will risk everything against him.

"My lord..." The Patriarch of the Ling family in Wujun came out tremblingly, "Do we all have to try this 'special product'?"

"No, no, the new agricultural concept is just advocacy, not compulsory promotion. I just hope that everyone can maximize the potential of agriculture, instead of continuing to waste time with the concept of 'planting in spring and harvesting in autumn' .

You are all big families with manpower and talents, so you are the most suitable for researching these.At present, your farming methods, at least in my opinion, are a waste of land. To put it bluntly, I am very dissatisfied to see you ruining the land so much! " Li Minghu said with a straight face.

"My lord, we still need to think about the new agricultural concept." Lu Jun stepped forward and said, and everyone responded.

"I only talked about advocating it. After all, the farmland belongs to you, so it's not easy for me to point fingers." Li Ming replied angrily, "My original intention is to make everyone rich. Look at the way to get rich. , if you don’t do it, then others will get rich doing it, so don’t complain!”

"Definitely, definitely!" Lu Jun said with a smile, and the aristocratic families below also responded one after another.

"Of course, I'll also tell you some good news by the way!" Li Ming smiled, "With the promotion of agricultural technology and the increase in grain production in the future, farming will not need to pay any taxes..."

Speaking of this, not to mention that the aristocratic families below became excited, Liu Yao's face behind him also became ugly.

"In contrast, everyone's food must be sold to the imperial court first. The purchase price is based on the market price in Yangzhou, and you will not lose money. But if there are officials who do not purchase according to this price, you can go to the government office to file a complaint, or even go to the government office. The prefect's mansion even came to me to complain, and whoever stretched out his claws indiscriminately, I will chop off his claws!" Li Ming said viciously.

"My lord is benevolent!" The aristocratic family laughed. They don't need to pay the agricultural tax, so they can have more grain to sell, and even if they trade it to the government, they can still get money. This deal is not a loss!
"Don't be too happy too early!" Li Ming looked around at the crowd, "Anyone who sells old grain instead of new grain to the imperial court is subsidized. Or if there is a lack of catty and less tael, and there is adulteration in it, of course the officials who buy it will inevitably die. , you will also be punished. Greed cannot be satisfied, I have given in, and I hope you will give me face, if it is beneficial for everyone to benefit together, it is the right way."

"The villain understands!" The aristocratic family hurriedly replied.

The problem of grain depots is the biggest problem no matter what era.There are grain rats in every era, but in the final analysis, we need to strengthen the clean government.This is something he needs to worry about, so he doesn't bother to continue talking nonsense with these aristocratic families.

The meeting has come to an end here. When the aristocratic families left the government office, their faces were all red, and it was obvious that they had gained a lot.
