The Reborn Wife is Farming

Mu Yangling was looking at the goods list, the list of goods they exported and the list of goods they imported. Qi Haoran carried the little bear to the barracks early in the morning, while Xiao An was sitting on the blanket not far from Mu Yangling's feet. The sound box, the little lion and the tiger head sat cross-legged and watched.

Xiaoxia hugged Xiaofu and watched them waste everything. Knowing that he couldn't control them, he stabbed Mu Yangling, "I really want them to dismantle it. I heard that such a small music box is worth twenty taels of silver."

Mu Yangling smiled and said: "Let them go, Xiao An can put it back after dismantling it, if not, just get him a few more music boxes."

This time when Zhou’s boat came back, they brought back hundreds of music boxes, but this thing is indeed very expensive, twenty taels of silver for a toy, and few people even buy it in the upper class of the nobles, because this thing is not only used for playing. Really no other use.

Unless it is used to show off, everyone will take a look at it.

The reason why Mu Yangling dared to say this is that she did a public opinion survey. She asked her four children. As soon as Xiao Xiong heard that a small music box would cost him two months of monthly money, his heart ached, "Twenty-two With the money, I can buy four or five books for the children in the academy, and those four or five books can be used for at least twenty years, and can teach..."

Mu Yangling quickly interrupted him, expressing that he understood what he meant, and turned to look at Xiao An, Xiao An also shook his head, "It's too expensive, not worth it, and has no other use. I want to listen to music and we can sing by ourselves, and we can dance as well." meeting."

The little lion and the tiger head added: "And they can only go around in circles, not as good as ours, and even the music is only a short paragraph."

In short, everyone is disgusted by all kinds of people. Xiao An took this thing because he wanted to know how the music was played by no one, and the little lion and tiger head were just watching the fun. On the contrary, Xiao Xiong supported Xiao An's move and said: "You Work hard to dismantle it, and it is best to draw a blueprint, and I will let Heizi and the others try to make it later, if we can make it, we will make a fortune, twenty taels of silver each."

It was Xiao Xiong's words that reminded Mu Yangling that she asked Manager Zhu to get the manifest to look at it today. Could it be that they can only import these novelties from foreigners, and then export silk, tea and porcelain?

Except for porcelain, silk, satin and tea all require the production of land resources, while the other party's sound boxes, muskets, and colored glaze are all manufactured by industry. Instead, their consumption is to provide more employment resources for their country's labor force. It is they, for tea and silk, may have to occupy more land resources.

No matter what time it is, food is the foundation of a country, and no amount of gold and silver is as useful as food.

It is said that gold and silver are hard currencies, but in fact, food is the foundation of a country no matter in prosperous times or troubled times. Even in an economically developed world like the previous life, food reserves are still the top priority of the country.

Therefore, Mu Yangling does not want to allow businesses to occupy more land resources before the grain production does not increase.

Regardless of whether it is tea planting or silk breeding, a lot of land resources are needed. Now, whether it is foreigners or Daqi people, silk and tea are indispensable for exporting goods from here. Now that the sea trade has just started, the consumption is already very high. Huge, the prices of raw silk and tea in the coastal areas have nearly tripled. When the sea trade becomes more prosperous and the prices of these two things get higher and higher, more people will definitely give up growing food and turn to tea and mulberry cultivation. silkworm.

The person in charge of the internal treasury lives next door to her. That person was also in charge of filling the treasury before. Except for the emperor and the Minister of the Household Department, I am afraid that no one can know more about the treasury and the grain stored in the grain depots in various places than him, and Mu Yangling As long as you think about the loss of land between Dajin and Xixia, and the possibility of another war within ten years, you can't help worrying. Qi Xiuyuan was still discussing with Qi Haoran about building water conservancy and dredging the Yellow River some time ago.

Whether it is fighting a war or building water conservancy projects, food is needed.

So Mu Yangling hopes to change the export structure of Daqi. Tea and silk are still exported, but the main things should be handicrafts, such as porcelain. For example, they can also produce cheaper and more beautiful sound boxes, such as glassware, or clocks and watches. , or something else.

There are ready-made sound boxes, Mu Yangling only needs to find a craftsman to study, first learn the principles of it, then make it, and then improve it.

As for glassware, that's even easier, glass was made in China as early as BC, well, this thing first appeared in Egypt, because of volcanic eruptions, when everyone was still a tribe, they made glass Products, colorful glass, although hazy and opaque, everyone knows how to make this thing.

Mu Yangling also knows, but how did the transparent and beautiful glass come out, please forgive her, the formula was not written in the book when the military school was studying history, but it doesn't matter, the glassware sold to them by foreigners is very transparent now, she has to do it The only thing is to let people study and reduce the cost, and then turn the glass into various beautiful mirrors, clocks, and even glass windows...

In this world, clocks and watches are still bulky mechanical striking tower clocks. Unfortunately, she knows the internal structure diagram and basic principles of watches, and knowing that it is not too difficult to make watches, but she can make watches, other clocks Certainly not a problem.

As special forces, watches are something they often use, so everyone will disassemble and equip them, and it is not difficult to draw a structural diagram.

Mu Yangling finally found her position in Haimao. She approached Fan Zijin and told him, "I want to build a glass workshop and a watch workshop. As for the sound box, I will leave it to a few children."

Fan Zijin couldn't help supporting his forehead, and asked: "Let's not talk about the latter, where is your formula for the former, and how can you be sure that foreigners will use your glass and clocks? Isn't it a waste of money to invest so much?"

Mu Yangling blinked, and said: "The foreigners don't want me to sell to the people of Daqi. Anyway, they also want to buy these two things when they go to sea. Now they can buy them without going to sea. How good it is."

Fan Zijin couldn't help but patted his head. After staying with Haoran for a long time, he became stupid. He asked such a stupid question. He nodded and said, "Okay, you can do it, but why are you here to tell me?"

Mu Yangling chuckled, and said flatteringly, "Zijin, I can't enjoy these two lucrative businesses to myself. How about the two of us working together?"

Fan Zijin asked with black lines all over his head: "The autumn harvest has just ended, you and Haoran have so many Zhuangzi shops, where did the proceeds go?"

Mu Yangling said weakly: "I asked Director Zhu to open the Fengshou shop to the state capitals, so the expenditure is a bit big..."

Fan Zijin's eyes widened involuntarily, and he said sharply, "Every state capital?"

Mu Yangling probably also realized that he had done something stupid, so he nodded.

Fan Zijin almost died of anger, pointed at her and cursed: "Hao Ran is ignorant, why are you a prodigal."
