Cao Cao's chef

Chapter 757

So Dianjie moved into Wangjiazhuang forcefully in this way, and Wang Yong's side naturally had some gossip.As for Wanshiwu, Zhang Chunhua, the chief executive, felt helpless for this woman, whom she couldn't even afford to offend, to act as Wang Yong's personal salesman, but there was no way to stop her.

Facing so many customers and wishing to have a female salesperson, she felt like she was going to collapse.Doesn't Wanshiwu have no marriage introduction business, so it can't go through the formal process? !

"My wife, please tell me something." During breakfast, Sima Yi bit the bullet and found Wang Yong. "Dianjie has a great background. She, the head of Yingchuan, can't afford to offend her. I hope you will be careful."

"Well, I understand." Wang Yong nodded, but his expression was a little strange.Did this Chunhua think that he was forced by the overlord?Perhaps she never thought that being treated like this was actually himself...

"I heard that Dianjie has already lived in Wangjiazhuang?" Cao Cao had to mention it when he was eating.

"Yes, I persuaded Yan and the others yesterday and moved in directly." Wang Yong replied.

"Then should I congratulate you?" Cao Cao replied casually. At this moment, there seemed to be a faint sour smell in the air.

"What I hope more is that the lord can live in." Wang Yong replied casually. At this time, no matter whether the answer is yes or no, it is a landmine, and silence is also a landmine.So the solution is to 'change the topic/lead the trouble to the east'.

"Forget it, I won't talk to you about this..." Sure enough, Cao Cao blushed and stopped the topic immediately, "Perhaps you should pay attention to those so-called high-yield crops. They will mature one after another recently, and the yield is as expected. It is very high, and it is fully equipped for comprehensive promotion, and even a small amount can be sold.”

"However, my lord is not very happy..." Wang Yong looked at Cao Cao, "My lord, you are just a chariot general."

Agriculture and warehousing are the work of Da Si Nong, and it is also Situ's business at the top. It has nothing to do with her as a chariot general. If she has a headache, of course it is not her turn to have a headache.

"So I'm telling you about this matter. After all, it's not Da Si Nong and Situ who have a headache, but also Your Majesty." Cao Cao replied, "If you don't mind Your Majesty, if you have a headache because of this matter, then you don't have to listen. "

"Well, the lord is still great." What else could Wang Yong say, he had already planned to be a chef quietly, why did he force him to come out of the arena again, "What is the specific situation?"

It must be a problem that most of the courtiers can't solve, so he had to let him do it.

"Aristocratic families from all over the world are not willing to plant these high-yielding crops, and Wang Yun has no way to force them to promote them. After all, most of the civil affairs officials are descendants of the aristocratic families. Considering the interests of the family, they did not do their best on this matter. .” Cao Cao replied.

High-yield crops are an important source of military rations. Although many people have switched to wheat and rice, and the proportion of corn and sorghum has begun to decline, they are not as good as those high-yield crops.

Obviously under the name of the aristocratic family, there are still a lot of tidal flats and sandy land. These fields, even places that are not suitable for planting, can obviously be used.But these aristocratic families would rather have no harvest than try high-yielding crops.

The real problem lies here. Most of the land is in their hands. They don't plant it, and they only rely on small family farmers to plant it, which is meaningless at all.It is understandable that Cao Cao would be so anxious.

After all, Yuan Shao might go south at any time, and Sun Quan had to send troops in order to establish his prestige.This means that the imperial court may face the situation of being attacked from both sides.Military rations are very important, even more important than the number of soldiers!

"This is at this stage...it's unsolvable..." Wang Yong shook his head, "Commerce in various places has not yet reached its peak. Moreover, many aristocratic families have become accustomed to the mentality of farming and selling food. Even if they want to do business, Mainly cloth merchants and grain merchants, even under the name of Wanshiwu..."

"What do you want to express? Forget it, follow me to the office room and continue the discussion!" Cao Cao looked at Wang Yong suspiciously, then looked around, and finally got up to signal him.

When he came to the office, Wang Yong organized the language all the way, and then continued to explain: "Why does the family need money?"

"Everyone needs money!" Cao Cao said angrily, "But the purpose of the aristocratic family's need for money is to free the children from work, to study hard and practice martial arts, so that they can become officials in the future..."

"Yes, in fact, the aristocratic family needs money, so that the children can study hard and make progress every day. So whether they are doing business or farming, they just need more money to achieve this goal. The bigger the family, the more money they need , So either more land is needed to grow food, or they need to find a way to collect food at a low price, sell it at a high price, and earn the difference... After all, they are used to this method of getting money with almost no trouble management. In particular, this method will not damage your reputation."

In this world, although there is no classification of scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, scholars must still occupy a high position.The juxtaposition of agriculture, industry and commerce is mainly the result of the strong rise of Wanshiwu.But obviously, Wanshiwu was also feared by the emperors of various dynasties. Rather than recognizing the wealth it created, it is better to say that it is a powerful enemy!

Therefore, industry and commerce have somewhat of a bad reputation.However, agriculture has no side effects. After all, all dynasties and generations have prosperous agriculture.

So not to mention Wang Yong's world, most of the aristocratic families in this world are also engaged in farming and mulberry.In the final analysis, being a big landlord, even if doing business, was entrusted to families with marriages.In Xuzhou, there was the Lu Su family in the early days, and the Mi family came out later.The Zhang family and Zhen family in Jizhou, the Zou family in Guanzhong, and even Zhang Chunhua's family are also local wealthy merchants.

"Yes, cheap grain hurts farmers...hehe..." Cao Cao figured it out.Why the big man has a Changping warehouse, in fact, it was originally to deal with the local aristocratic family's policy of manipulating grain prices.

Collecting grain at a low price, selling it at a high price, and earning the price difference, in the final analysis, is not satisfied with sitting at home collecting rent, but also intends to further drink the blood of the tenant farmers.It is said that it is a heirloom of farming and reading, but in fact one or two are more capitalists than capitalists.Even more ruthless direct lending of usury can drive the owner farmers out of bankruptcy and become tenant farmers.

In such a big environment, planting high-yielding crops, unless it is crazy, it would be strange if it can be implemented.Who doesn't want to make some extra money.Whether pumpkins and potatoes, sweet potatoes or corn, the advantage is high yield, but the disadvantage is also high yield.

With so much grain pouring into the market, no matter how you manipulate it, there is no way to raise the price of grain.As a result, more food was sold, but half of the previous income was earned. Even if Chang Pingcang went all out to buy, how much could it buy?

Who doesn't have a small calculation. After calculation, the benefits to the country outweigh the disadvantages, but the harm to the family outweighs the benefits, so of course they can't plant.Not only can it not be planted, but 1 reasons can be found to explain why it cannot be planted.Don't underestimate those, there are countless families of civil servants and military generals in the family!
"Is there any way?" Cao Cao only felt a headache.

"My lord..." Wang Yong shook his head, looked at Cao Cao firmly and said, "I'm just a cook, not a prime minister."
