Datang Nongsheng

Chapter 95 Diversified Farms

In the dead of night, Sun Xiangfu once deeply analyzed the current society and summed up several reasons why the country was not rich in this period. He decided to share it with several shareholders. If everyone agrees, then they can pass it on orally Where to go to Li Shimin, if you don't agree with it, then everyone will not talk about it.

"There is a problem, I must make it clear to everyone, that is, we have made money, and we should not let it rust in the warehouse, otherwise, we will become the same people who hinder the development of this country like the aristocratic family."

Everyone was surprised when they heard the words. Qin Qiong and Sun Xiangfu had the closest relationship, so they asked, "What do you mean by this? Tell me in detail."

"Everyone, we can earn 10,000+ guan in a month, maybe a million guan in a year. How many million guan does Datang have for us to earn? After ten or eight years, when the wealth of tens of millions of guan has accumulated When it is in our hands, do you guys think that the money in our Datang Market can still be transferred?"

Sun Xiangfu simply asked a few questions, but they were stunned. Is it a mistake to earn too much money?Everyone turned their suspicious eyes on Sun Xiangfu, waiting for his explanation later.

"Money cannot be eaten or drunk, nor can it bring warmth to everyone. Its significance lies in circulation. What is the benefit of circulation? You can see it from the entire supply chain of our Wangjianglou.

Aristocratic families and dignitaries, I call them the landlord class, are the people who consume in our Wangjiang Tower, and their money is earned by us. Do we need to use ingredients, craftsmen, and entertainers to guarantee their consumption?Therefore, the farmers, craftsmen, and entertainers who provide these services for us earn most of the money from us.

And these farmers, craftsmen, and entertainers will use the money they get. They will use the money to pay taxes to the landlord class, and go to the shops opened by the merchant class to buy cloth, ironware, and cattle. In the hands of the rich, the whole process, I call it a virtuous circle, in this cycle, the rich enjoy it, the bottom people also reap, and everyone gets benefits.

However, if one party breaks the cycle, the other class suffers.

For example, aristocratic families like the Seven Clans and Five Surnames earn a lot of wealth from this society every year. A century-old family is a century-old accumulation of wealth, and a thousand-year family is a thousand-year accumulation of wealth. From the Spring and Autumn and Warring States, to Qin and Han, to today's Datang, in the past thousand years, our nation has been mining and making money every year. How much money has been made?It is impossible to calculate, at least it is a hundred times and a thousand times the amount circulated in the market, but the money is all in the hands of a small number of people, thus destroying the entire cycle. They only earn and don’t spend it, leaving the poor with no money to improve their quality of life , opportunities to expand productivity.

When most people in a country are poor, the country will be extremely fragile. The court cannot collect much tax from these poor people. These poor people have no surplus food in their families and cannot withstand a little disaster. Lose your temper a little bit, and the whole country is in dire straits in an instant. This is not a normal country. You can understand it as a sick country that needs to be healed. "

Sun Xiangfu said a lot in simple and straightforward words, but it made the house quieter. It was the first time they heard such an argument. It turns out that the country is not rich because the rich do not spend money.

"But aristocratic families also rely on their ability to make money, so you can't force them to distribute money to the poor!" Lawyer Pei said with a different stand. Although his Hedong Pei family is not as strong as the seven clans and five surnames, it is still a wealthy family in the world. There is naturally a lot of wealth.

"So, we only earn their money based on our abilities. Wangjiang Tower is a platform we created to take money from the rich and give money to ordinary people. This is the biggest role of Wangjiang Tower."

Having said this, everyone nodded their heads one after another, and thus raised the development of Wangjiang Tower to the height of a great cause that benefits the country and the people in their hearts.

Yu Chigong, who doesn't like to use his brain on such things, spoke the most cheerfully, you said directly, "Just tell us how to do it!"

"Here, the second question I want to talk about is the ratio of male to female." Sun Xiangfu looked at the expressions of the audience and said.

"The ratio of male to female? What the hell?" Yu Chigong scratched his scalp and asked in puzzlement.

"It's the problem of the number of men and women. There were many years of wars at the end of the Sui Dynasty. After the founding of our country in the Tang Dynasty, there were also endless wars. On the battlefield, most of the people who died were young and strong men. Did the gentlemen find out that in your food town, The number of young and strong men is less than half of the number of young and strong women."

When Sun Xiangfu mentioned this, the generals who led the troops thought about it carefully, and it was true, especially the villages that went to battle more frequently, and they were almost becoming daughter countries. The number of young widows is very large, but the current population of Datang is only 2000 In addition, it was polygamy, which led to the fact that this problem did not explode. The reason why women in the early Tang Dynasty were bold and unrestrained had a lot to do with the fact that there were fewer men, and it was also due to physiological needs.

"What you said is indeed a problem. In Tang Dynasty, there are more women than men, so our elders are rare things." Cheng Yaojin said proudly.

As a martial artist, he was able to marry Cui's daughter as his wife, and he could also take several concubines. Of course, he was very satisfied with this status quo.

"This is not the point I'm talking about. The point I want to say is that if we want to enrich the peasants and invigorate the economy, we must give these families, most of whom are borne by women, some jobs and opportunities to earn money, liberate women's labor, and let them Just like men, they can produce and support a family with their own labor, so the national power of our Tang Dynasty will be greatly enlarged, because the number of women is much larger than that of men." Sun Xiangfu knocked on the table and said.

"Uh, but men farming and women weaving are passed down from generation to generation, so it's not easy to change? Besides, what does this have to do with our Wangjiang Tower?" The one sitting here is Chang Sun Chong who reads the most books, and he is very concerned about all the books in the book. He said the most rules and regulations, and he was the first to question.

Sun Xiangfu gave him a blank look and said, "I didn't say to ask women to plow the fields! They don't have the strength. What I mean is, we have to make use of the female workers as much as possible so that they can earn money and support themselves You see, the waitresses in Wangjiang Tower originally came from the tenants of your fiefdoms. Aren’t they doing a good job here? There are few, and recruiting them to work here will not affect the cultivation of the fields."

"You mean, we will employ a large number of female workers in the future?" Qin Qiong recalled.

"Well, I just said two things in total. The first is that if you have money, you can't leave it at home to rust, and you have to invest it to grow your hair. The second is to use cheap female workers who will not damage the productivity of farming. Then, we have to What industries should invest in a large number of female workers? The answer is simple, the clothing industry, the farming industry, and the food industry that may be developed in the future.”

Speaking of this, Sun Xiangfu told everyone about the industrial chain model of Xingfu Village, and some special food seasonings of the back kitchen of Wangjianglou, which can be developed into industries.So, everyone knows what Sun Xiangfu said. If you want to supply a restaurant like Wangjianglou, you need at least a food supply base like Xingfu Village, or even more than that, and the popular ones in Wangjianglou Things can be scaled up and made bigger, such as soy sauce and sauces for cooking in the kitchen, sugar produced by new techniques, and dairy products.

Since the ration output of Xingfu Village is too small, the reason why Chang'an can support it is to rely on the food supply produced by the other major shareholders. Therefore, in addition to chicken farms, pig farms, and fish farms, the amount of farmland is also It needs to be greatly increased, and before the branch stores are opened, the first thing to establish is an industrial chain that can supply these stores.

'Diversified farm' is the name Sun Xiangfu gave to these industrial chains, and the main purpose of this diversified farm is to increase the added value of the agricultural and sideline products produced by farmers and sell them at a better price.

So when it comes to this, the major shareholders will know what to do next, raise money according to the shares, buy land near Luoyang, Yangzhou, and Yizhou, and build this diversified farm.

In addition, several clothing and shoe-making workshops that will be funded will also start site selection and construction. Afterwards, a large number of female workers will be recruited to produce new clothes, shoes or some accessories that have become widely known because of Wangjiang Tower.

Therefore, these families basically didn’t take any money out of the dividends. Even Donggong, which deducted a lot of signing fees, still needs to make up some money. It costs a lot to buy tens of thousands of acres of land and build farms around big cities such as Luoyang. .

"I can't imagine what it will be like when there are farms like Xingfu Village all over the Tang Dynasty." Coming out of the conference room, Qin Qiong sighed.

Sun Xiangfu smiled and said, "As long as we work together in this direction, it will be everywhere in a few years."

Qin Qiong nodded firmly, and walked to the carriage at the door, not knowing whether he was going home or going to the palace.

Sun Xiangfu ate at Wangjiang Tower with Yu Xiuer for dinner, and several outstanding artists were invited to the table together. There are only fifteen days before the Shangyuan Festival, and a new program must be designed, and then The rehearsal has started. In this regard, Sun Xiangfu has always been brainstorming. In addition to saving trouble in singing and dancing, Sun Xiangfu also has to come up with one or two new things for his subordinates to explore and produce.

So, the meal lasted for two hours before it was over, and when most of the things were finalized, and Sun Xiangfu took Yu Xiuer's hand and walked home with Xiaoxue, it was almost midnight again.

"Miss, are we not allowed to go to Yu's house to pay New Year's greetings tomorrow?" Sun Xiangfu suddenly thought of this and asked.

"I thought my husband would forget about it!" Yu Xiu'er said with a smile on her face and rolled her eyes at Sun Xiangfu.

Sun Xiangfu knew that he had neglected it, so he asked embarrassingly, "Then, have we prepared any New Year's greetings?"

"It's useless for you to prepare anything else. Our family lacks good poems, good words, and good characters. You can just go back and write it now, but Dad sent someone to inform you today. There will be more students at home tomorrow. There is going to be a literary meeting." Yu Xiu'er raised her brows and said very relaxedly.

Sun Xiangfu said with a guilty conscience when he heard the words, "Then can I not go?"

"Do you dare to try?"

Sun Xiangfu knew from Yu Xiuer's slightly murderous tone that if he dared not go to her natal home to pay New Year's greetings in the first year of marriage, she would definitely do something to murder her husband.

"I'm just kidding you! My lady, why bother to get angry, I'll go back and write poems for my husband..."
