Wind rises time and space gate

Lin Zhaoxia was stunned when she heard that Zhao Guangyuan wanted to sell modern food.

"Have you calculated the price difference?"

Zhao Guangyuan nodded, "Yes, I have calculated it carefully."

Five taels of Daqi gold can be exchanged for more than 6000 modern dollars, and one tael of silver combined is almost more than 300 yuan.The wholesale price of rice in the Jianghuai area is one yuan and eighty, and one tael of silver can buy 722 kilograms of rice.

In Daqi, with 170 yuan per stone and one tael of silver, you can only buy more than [-] kilograms of rice.

The difference is more than four times.

Lin Zhaoxia was silent after hearing his calculations.

"I know you want to improve the lives of the middle and lower class people in Daqi, and you want to gain their support, but you need to be cautious about selling food."

"How to say?"

Lin Zhaoxia organized the speech: "Not to mention whether you can bring a large amount of food back, even if you can bring it back, food is the foundation of the country and is related to the national destiny and people's livelihood. If a large amount of food is imported, it will inevitably reduce the income of farmers and reduce the number of farmers. employment opportunities.”

Lin Zhaoxia didn't agree with his idea.

"Think about it, modern rice is cheap, and the grain shipped to Daqi cannot be sold. If it cannot be sold, people will not want to grow grain, and the land will be abandoned? And the farmers in Daqi are not like modern people They can go to the city to work, but what are they going to do?”

"When there is no money, it is easy to cause trouble. When there is trouble, society will be in turmoil. Of course you will have a chance when there is turmoil, but are you ready?"

Zhao Guangyuan frowned.

"So I don't agree with your idea. There is a dirty saying that if you take too big a step, it will easily cause trouble..." Lin Zhaoxia said a little embarrassed.

"But although the words are crude, the reasoning is not crude. Only when a country can be self-sufficient in food can it maintain social stability and reassure its people."

Zhao Guangyuan nodded, "I was overthinking it."

He just thinks that there are many kinds of modern food and it is cheaper than Daqi. If he can get some and go back to Daqi, the people will be able to eat.I didn't think so far into it.

"Your idea is right. For example, if you want to raise troops, you can transport some back to eat for yourself. It will not affect the operation of the country and will not affect prices, which is okay. Or if you want to bring some salt back, you can buy two for one tael of silver. It’s more than a thousand pounds.”

Zhao Guangyuan's eyes lit up.

However, Lin Zhaoxia rejected this idea.

"Actually, you can make the salt yourself and use it for your own people. It's more cost-effective than bringing it back from modern times. Aren't you a foodie in Yue? That's a place where sea salt is produced. If you dry it yourself, you can save money. That’s a lot of military spending.”

He added: "Being self-sufficient is more cost-effective than transporting it back from here. If you want to improve the lives of the lower class people, you still need to increase food production. Get some chemical fertilizers back and let people study how to increase food production. It is better than anything else. A pound of chemical fertilizers It can increase production by at least four or five kilograms. Isn’t it better than you reselling grain?”

"One pound of chemical fertilizer can increase production by four or five pounds?" Zhao Guangyuan was a little surprised.

"I don't know the details. I have never farmed. Didn't you allocate [-] hectares of Yongye fields in Yue? You can use your Yongye fields to test and then spread to the whole of Viet. If you can promote it, , taxes will be greatly increased, and the salary you receive will also increase."

Zhao Guangyuan looked at Lin Zhaoxia with admiration.He wanted to walk hand in hand with such a woman.

After returning to Daqi, Zhao Guangyuan counted his assets.

Qi Ya Antique Shop sells calligraphy, paintings, antiques and flowers. Since the shop opened, he has earned 3000 million yuan, which adds up to 300 taels of gold.Several shops in Daqi earn more than this.The income from selling pearls and the newly opened flower and bird shop are a big sum.

Uncle Wang Qi spent a thousand gold to buy the two-color rose.

A thousand pieces of gold?

Zhao Guangyuan tapped his fingers on the table. He really didn't expect that Uncle Qi Wang would spend a thousand gold to buy the two-color rose.Does Uncle Qi Wang know that the shop belongs to him?If you knew you would spend a thousand gold on flowers...

"Come here, call Fang Er."

After a while, Fang Er hurriedly entered the palace. "Your Highness?"

Zhao Guangyuan told him: "Go to the capital in person and deliver the five-color camellia to Prince Qi's residence quietly, so as not to miss out on the treasure."

Fang Er nodded in agreement, "It would be great if eldest brother was here. His lightness skills are better than mine." There were many masters in Prince Qi's palace, and Prince Qi recognized him, so Fang Er was a little worried.

Zhao Guangyuan looked at the tall and powerful Fang Er and thought for a while, "Then you send him to Dongsheng Pawn Shop, find Lu Ye, and let him go there in person."

"Yes. This subordinate will go now."

The next night, Prince Qi received a five-color camellia.Five colors, even more stunning than that two-color rose.

Like it very much.I couldn't bear to move my feet while watching it.

After reading it, I sat in the study and spent the whole night in a daze.After being in a daze, I sighed for the rest of the night.

Early the next morning, I personally went to Qi Ya's Flower and Bird Shop in Dongshi and spent [-] gold to buy a macaw that could recite poems.

"This little beast is pretty good. I'll send him to the palace to relieve the emperor's boredom."

As a result, after entering the palace, the bird that could recite poems was sent away, and he also received a bunch of generous rewards from Emperor Zhizheng.I can buy several of them together.There is no loss in entering the palace this time.

Prince Qi happily ordered his servants to keep an eye on Qi Ya's flower and bird shop. If there were any new and rare things, remember to ask the shopkeeper to keep them for him.

As a result, Prince Qi's operation, coupled with the fact that the emperor in the palace liked the bird very much, made people flock to Qi Ya's flower and bird shop, making the shopkeepers of the left and right shops red-eyed.It's just a shop under the care of Prince Qi, and no one dares to find fault with it.

Zhao Guangyuan also received news from the capital.

He was well aware of Prince Qi's operation.

Uncle Qi Wang knew that he owned the shop.Uncle Qi Wang did not reveal that he opened the shop, and Zhao Guangyuan was grateful.Remember this favor.

After sending a wave of pets, ornamental fish and potted flowers and trees to the shop in Beijing, they recalled Sun Lu, Sun Ze and Fang Da.

"I am sealing my city in Yue. You must have heard about it."

Sun Lu, Fang Da and others nodded: "It seems that the thorn in the emperor's heart has not been removed. Only His Highness's food is divided farthest and the poorest." Several people were a little angry.

Zhao Guangyuan was also angry, but he had no hope, so he couldn't say he was disappointed.

"It's better to be further apart. It will make things easier for us."

"Your Highness wants to..."

Zhao Guangyuan nodded: "I originally wanted to raise troops in the mountains near the suburbs of Beijing, but once the number of people increased, the movement was still too loud. Now the place in Yuedi is just right. And I have been allocated a hundred hectares of Yongye field, and I am ready to spend more Purchase some fields so that you can stock up on fields and raise troops at the same time, so you can be self-sufficient."

When Sun Lu, Fang Da and others heard this, they clapped their thighs: "This is a wonderful move! Although Changping Mountain is hidden, it is easy to attract people's attention when buying a lot of grain and grass materials."

And since recruiting troops and buying horses, Sun Lu has watched the money flowing out every day, fearing that one day the money will not be able to keep up and it will stop.Now it is possible to hoard land and raise troops at the same time, which is a wonderful move.

Sun Lu, Sun Ze, and Fang Da all knelt down: "I will listen to His Highness's arrangements."
