Three Kingdoms: Stealing the Tiger Talisman and forcing Yuan Shao to become a monk

Chapter 520 The Future of the Family
Yuan Tan, who was in Ji Town, did not know anything about what was happening in Ye City, but this did not affect Master Qi Hou's busyness.

Don't get me wrong, Yuan Tan is not busy defending Wuhuan.

Although the Hebei family's counterattack had already begun, it would not be so fast that the plot in Yecheng would be completed, and Wuhuan would be able to receive the news and start attacking.

The reaction time in the middle, even if there is no two or three months, at least it will take a month.

For Yuan Tan, this month's situation is enough for him to do many things.

Since he couldn't get rid of the influence of the family, he needed to rely on the power of the family, and he had already said that he wanted to give the family a new path.

Yuan Tan naturally wouldn't write a bad check.

His plan is simple and straightforward.

Doesn't the aristocratic family just like to enslave people?Don't you just like enclosure?
Speaking of the rules of this game, after the rise of the Age of Discovery thousands of years later, there is a country in the West that is much more proficient and cruel than the aristocratic families.

If I remember correctly, that country should come up with a saying that "sheep eat people".

There was a sneer on the corner of Yuan Tan's mouth. He stood on the watchtower of the city wall, looked in the direction of the grassland, and smiled lightly.

The pattern of sheep cannibalism is too small.

As for the prairie friends who are not yet "hospitable", "singing and dancing", and "multi-talented", Yuan Tan said that everyone's pattern should be set higher.

How about just developing the wool and mutton industries.

We must go hand in hand!

It doesn't matter if there are no pigs on the grassland, the vast grassland has a lot to do.

Everyone can raise cattle and horses.

Sheep cannibalism is not Yuan Tan's goal.

After all, the grassland is too big, and there are too many alien races on the grassland.

In the future, the "five random Chinese" will not only refer to the five ethnic minorities, but a general term.

For so many prairie friends, the hospitable Qi Hou believes that at least cattle, sheep, and horses must go hand in hand and "eat" together to solve the threat of prairie friends and meet the needs of the aristocratic family.

Yuan Tan's plan is also quite simple.

Why did the aristocratic family focus on the three-acre land in their own home from the beginning to the end, and never thought about going outside, especially the grasslands in the north to ask for it?
Except that the climate on the grassland is unstable and is only suitable for nomadic herding but not farming.

More importantly, the livestock raising technology in this era is too backward, and the profits that can be produced are too meager.

In a pasture, once a livestock has a disease, even if it is discovered in time, it is likely to have infected several livestock after it is discovered.

And the larger the pasture, the greater the loss of the disease.

The price of a farm ox in Dahan is thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars, which is definitely not much cheaper than a healthy horse.

Even more expensive.

In particular, the new plow promoted by Yuan Tan greatly improved the efficiency of agricultural farming, but at the same time it also further increased the demand for cattle.

This further boosted the price of farm cattle.

Yuan Tan is not sure about other places.

But in Xuzhou under his rule, at the end of last year, according to the market price statistics from the Chen Deng newspaper, the price of a farm cattle has been fired to [-] yuan a head, and there is still a price but no market!
In other words, once a disease occurs in the pasture, even if only one cow dies from the disease, it will be a loss of [-] yuan!
Even if the price of calves is relatively cheap, once a disease occurs, at least three or five farm cattle will die of disease, and if there are more, it may be more than ten or even hundreds of cattle. This is a loss of hundreds of thousands of dollars!

Even in later generations, a livestock epidemic may cause farmers to lose their money, let alone modern times?
However, there is an important difference between ancient times and modern times, that is, there are not so many epidemic diseases in this era.

In addition, it is Yuan Tan's biggest source of confidence, that is...

The background of the family is not comparable to modern farmers.

The loss of hundreds of thousands may be a blow that never recovers for a single or small tribe.

But for the family, it was just an investment failure.

If you insist on analogy, the "cattle, sheep and horse cannibalism movement" that Yuan Tan plans to carry out on the grassland should be described in more civilized and modern terms.

That is the "Large Enterprise Joint Breeding Production Plan".

An epidemic will cause the death of dozens or even hundreds of livestock, and the loss of hundreds of thousands of dollars?
It doesn't matter, there is an epidemic in this ranch, as long as it is quarantined.

Other ranches are ok by making sure the livestock are harmless.

If a family has only one ranch, it is indeed easy to lose too much money and lose everything.

But with the background of the family, even if it is only a medium-sized family, how could it be possible to have only one ranch?
Naturally, multiple pastures, even more than ten pastures, or even dozens of pastures are operating at the same time. Even if there is a large-scale epidemic, the losses will not be so large that even the aristocratic family can't bear it.

Other than that, it is the method Yuan Tan is thinking about now.

"Report to your lord, everything you asked us to prepare has been prepared, please wait and move, go and have a look."

Just as Yuan Tan was pondering, there was a rush of footsteps behind him, and an official climbed up the city wall cautiously with an awe-inspiring expression, not daring to go to Yuan Tan's side.

After more than ten steps away from Yuan Tan, he stood still and bent down respectfully to report.

For the officials big and small in Ji Town, these days are absolute nightmares. Every day, colleagues are dragged out by the indifferent young general in front of them.

charge?

Naturally, if he was implicated in the case of the rebellion of the country's tyrants or the rebellion of the four big families, the best end would be to have his family property confiscated and his official status deprived.

The worst result, for example, when Yuan Tan heavily implements the Land Equalization Order, tipping off the local tycoons.

Soldiers who incited local tyrants to resist sending to the countryside to implement the land equalization order even provoked disputes and even armed conflicts and so on.

For those who do these things, the fate is even worse and simpler.

Just one word, chop.

But the only thing that comforted these officials was that Yuan Tan did not expand the attack from beginning to end.

If you don't get involved, even your wife and children will be deprived of their family property and driven out of the house at most, and they will even be allowed to join their natal family to save their lives.

This is also why Yuan Tan has dealt with so many restless powerful queens these days.

The government in Ji Town can still maintain a relatively stable order and continue to operate.

Hearing the official's report, Yuan Tan recovered and nodded, and said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work, please lead the way."

Hearing Yuan Tan's gentle voice, the official's heart trembled, but he didn't dare to have the slightest distraction, and turned around to lead Yuan Tan to lead the way.

All the way, I was worried, lest something violated the taboo of this gentleman, and followed in the footsteps of my colleagues, until I led Yuan Tan into the exclusive house that Yuan Tan had set aside for equipment research these days. back.

Only then he let out a sigh of relief, looking at the tightly closed gate of the house, he felt a little muttering in his heart.

I don't know what this gentleman is doing here these days.

It is so mysterious that people can't figure it out.
