The first rebel of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1423 An annualized rate of 10% is not high

"Sir, it's like this. Because of the abundant rain this year and the blessing of Shengtang Group, our wheat production has increased a lot. However, after the increase in production, there have been several problems. These problems are very serious, so we I want to come here to ask my husband for advice, to see if he can help Datang get through this difficult time."

"Tell me! What's the problem?" Li Yin asked, and the problem gradually emerged.Li Yin should have thought of it a long time ago!
"First, the production has increased, but there is one thing, that is, no one is harvesting, or there is not enough manpower. It happens that there are few sunny days recently. We have to harvest the wheat and dry it before the rainy day! Now Either no one came to harvest, or the harvesting time was too long, if this period of time is missed, the harvest is too late, and the wheat in the field may be wasted.”

Hearing what Dai Zhou said, this problem seems to be really serious.

about this issue.

Li Yin said, "This question is not difficult."

"Please tell me, sir!"

"The imperial court has raised so many soldiers, they can join the harvest team as a way to exercise, and it can also make a good impression on the people!"

As soon as these words came out, they opened their minds.

"Yeah, why didn't we think of it!" Duan Lun said in surprise.

"It is indeed a great thing to let the army get involved! While training the army, it can really improve the court's impression in the hearts of the people. You really are a powerful existence, sir!"

Dai Zhou followed up.

Li Yin went on to say: "For some remote places, if it is a closer place, I have equipment that can be collected together. One equipment can be equivalent to the workload of [-] laborers for a day!"

Li Yin said again.

His wheat production this year is also extremely huge, the yield per mu is more than [-]% higher than that of ordinary people!
"In this way, that's really great!"

Dai Zhou was overjoyed.

Now that Li Yin has spoken, it's not a big deal.

"What about the second one?" Li Yin asked again.

Since there is a first, then there is a second.

"Yes, there is, and the second is that there are not enough granaries in the whole Tang Dynasty! Even the common people's homes can't put so much grain! And the common people store so much grain at home, it will only benefit the mice!"

This is a big problem.

But how could Li Yin have no choice?

These methods, in fact, he had already thought about these methods when he was researching seeds, and he has been working on them in recent years.

So, he walked to the French window.

The two of them didn't understand what he meant.

They followed suit.

"See that square piece of land down there?"

Li Yin pointed to a piece of land next to the tenement building.

A large number of circular columns were built on it, and each column was very high and very large.

They are very eye-catching in the light.

"what is that?"

Dai Zhou asked, but they didn't understand.

What is this?
As far as they know, these things have been built from the beginning.

But they don't know what these things are for.

To this day, I still don't know its usefulness.

"That is a circular granary, and each granary can hold 2000 million catties of grain."

2000 million catties weighs [-] tons.

In their eyes, the height of these granaries should be at least 20 meters, and the width should be about ten meters.

It seems normal that such a large space can hold so much food.

"How many acres can you accept?"

This involves the issue of yield. With the current yield, the yield per mu is already very strong, but in fact it will be less.

Therefore, Li Yin gave a more suitable number.

"It can save 300 million mu!"

The territory of the Tang Dynasty is very large. According to historical records, when it was the most prosperous, there were 7 lands with sufficient land grants, with an area of ​​2.08 million mu of cultivated land.

It is now the early days of Zhenguan, and there are probably nearly [-] million mu of land.

With so much land, less than one-third of the wheat may be planted. In this way, these granaries of Shengtang Group can harvest one-tenth of the amount.

Don't underestimate this tenth of the amount, but it can relieve a lot of pressure.

And some are digested.

And who knows if Li Yin has the same granary in Qingzhou, Taizhou, and Yangzhou?

These are unknown.

"So, sir, there is indeed a way to save food!"

"Yes, but..."

When Li Yin said but, the two suddenly realized something was wrong.

He won't want to make trouble again.

You know, wheat doesn't produce as many novel and profitable things as soybeans.

It doesn't seem very reasonable if they want Li Yin to buy these grains.

"Sir, please!" Dai Zhou said with some fear.

"I can rent out this granary, but there will be a fee!"

When it comes to charging fees, Li Yin is not a philanthropist.

This is also within reason.

"Of course! Mr. Have you ever thought about the acquisition?" Duan Lun asked.

"I have thought about it, but is it good for me to accept these things?" Li Yin asked back.

This is true.

"But if you don't use so many granaries to build so many granaries, it will be a waste!" Dai Zhou said again.

Li Yin smiled, this guy is really smart.

"No, it won't be wasted, there are still a lot of soybeans to be put into the Shengtang Group!"

I don't store wheat, but I can store soybeans.

These people are so naive.

Now the two of them didn't know what to say.

After a while.

Dai Zhou asked: "Then how do you rent it, sir?"

I'm afraid it's only on lease.

"It's very simple, one-tenth of the grain is loaned for one year!"

The annualized rate is only 10%, which is not bad.

If they are all filled, Li Yin can get ten warehouses of grain.

One warehouse has 2000 million catties, and ten warehouses are [-] million catties.

The current wheat flour extraction rate is 40%, which means that we have 8000 million catties of flour.

Based on the consumption of one catty of fabric per capita, Shengtang Group has 50 people.

Daily consumption of 50 catties can last 160 days.

But in the end, it solved part of the problem of eating.

This is a steady profit.

Moreover, Shengtang Group may have more than one warehouse.

"This, we have to talk to His Majesty!" Dai Zhou said.

It's not up to them to decide.

"Okay, you can come and look for it anytime, is there anything else?"

"The last point, because the production has increased, there is a place to put it, and more manpower is needed to grind wheat flour, so..."

"This is simple. The wheat threshing machine developed by my master is about to be put on the market now!"

"what?"

The two were shocked. Unexpectedly, Li Yin really wanted to be ahead.

They didn't think of a good harvest at all. It was very simple, but it became like this.

But today's matter is finally resolved.

It depends on whether Li Shimin agrees or not.

So the two bid farewell to Li Yin.

"Then sir, we won't bother you anymore, I wish you a sweet dream!" Dai Zhou said.

"Farewell!"

Duan Lun followed suit.

So the two left the tenement building.
