Chapter 751 Who is Gu Jian hurt?
So Dianjie moved into Wangjiazhuang with such force, and Wang Yong was naturally not free of gossip. For Wanshi House, Zhang Chunhua, the head of the housekeeper, was helpless about the woman who could not even afford to offend him, who actually wanted to serve as Wang Yong's personal salesperson, but he could not stop him.
Facing many customers and hoping to be a female salesperson, she felt like she was going to collapse. Wanshiwu is not without a marriage introduction business, so can't we go through the formal process?!
"My wife, please tell me something." During breakfast, Sima Yi gritted the bullet and found Wang Yong. "Dianjie has a very big background. She, the head of Yingchuan, cannot afford to offend her. I hope you are careful."
"Well, I understand." Wang Yong nodded, but his expression was a little strange. Did Zhang Chunhua think that he was a bully? She might not have thought that being like this was actually him...
"I heard that Dianjie has moved into Wangjiazhuang?" Cao Cao had to mention it while eating.
"Yes, I convinced 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 move 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/disaster flooding the east'.
"Forget it, I won't tell you all..." Sure enough, Cao Cao blushed and stopped the topic immediately. "You should probably care about the so-called high-yield crops. They are about to mature one after another recently. As expected, the yield is very high, and they have fully equipped the factors for comprehensive promotion, and can even be sold in small quantities."
"But the lord is not very happy..." Wang Yong looked at Cao Cao, "Lord, you are just a general of the chariot and cavalry."
In terms of agriculture and warehousing, it is the job of the Grand Marshal, and it is also Situ's business. It has nothing to do with her, the general of the chariot. If you have a headache, of course it is not her turn to have a headache.
"So I'll tell you about this. After all, it's not the Grand Prince and Situ, but also His Majesty." Cao Cao replied, "If you don't mind Your Majesty and have a headache for this matter, then you can ignore it."
"Okay, the lord is still awesome." What else can Wang Yong say? He had already planned to be a chef quietly, so why did he force him to come back from the world? "What's the specific situation?"
It must be a problem that most ministers cannot solve, so he has to let him take action.
"Aristocratic families in various places are not willing to plant these high-yield crops, and Wang Yun cannot forcefully promote them. After all, most of the officials in civil affairs are children of aristocratic families. Considering the interests of the family, they have not done their best in this matter." Cao Cao replied.
High-yield crops are an important source of military rations. Although many people have switched to wheat and rice, the proportion of corn and sorghum has begun to decline, they are not as good as those high-yield crops.
Under the name of the family, there are many mudflats and sandy textures. These places that are not suitable for planting can be used. However, these family members would rather have no grain harvest than try high-yield crops.
The real problem is here. Most of the land is in their hands. They don’t plant it and rely on the planting of small families and self-cultivated farmers. It is meaningless. Cao Cao would be so anxious, which is understandable.
After all, Yuan Shao may go south at any time, and Sun Quan must send troops in order to establish prestige. This means that the court may face an enemy from both sides. Military rations are very important, even more important than the number of soldiers!
"At this stage... there is no solution..." Wang Yong shook his head, "Businesses in various places have not yet reached their peak. Moreover, many aristocratic families have become accustomed to farming and selling grain. Even if they want to do business, they are mainly cloth merchants and grain merchants, and they are even affiliated with the name of Wanshiwu..."
"What do you mean? Forget it, follow me to the office room and continue to discuss it!" Cao Cao looked at Wang Yong in confusion, then looked around and finally stood up to signal to him.
When he arrived at the office room, Wang Yong organized the language all the way, and then continued to explain: "Why do the aristocratic family need money?"
"Everyone needs money!" Cao Cao said angrily, "But the purpose of the aristocratic family needs money is to liberate their children from work, study hard and practice martial arts, so as to facilitate their future officialdom..."
"Yes, the aristocratic families actually need money, just to let their children study hard and improve every day. So they need to do business and farm, but they just need to get more money to achieve this goal. The bigger the family, the more money they need, so they either need more land to grow grain, or they just find ways to collect grain at low prices, sell at high prices, and earn the difference... After all, they are used to this method that can make money without any troublesome management. Especially, this method will not ruin their reputation."
In this world, although there is no classification of scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, scholars must still occupy a high position. The parallel ranking of agriculture, industry and commerce is mainly due to the strong rise of Wanshiwu. But it is obvious that Wanshiwu is actually afraid of the emperors of various dynasties. It is better to say that it recognizes that it is a powerful enemy than to recognize the wealth it creates!
Therefore, industry and commerce have some bad reputations. However, agriculture has no side effects. After all, it is Changnong in all dynasties.
So let alone Wang Yong's world, most of the aristocratic families in this world are engaged in agriculture and sericulture. After all, they are big landlords, even if they do business, they will be handed over to families with marriages. In Xuzhou, the Lu Su family was in the early days, and then the Mi family came out. The Zhang family and Zhen family in Jizhou, the Zou family in Guanzhong, and even the Zhang Chunhua family were also local merchants.
"Yes, the grain is low and hurts the farmers...haha..." Cao Cao figured it out. Why did the great man often close the warehouse? In fact, it was originally intended to deal with the policy of local families playing with grain prices.
The price of grain is collected at a low price, and the price of selling is earned from it. In the final analysis, it is not satisfied with sitting at home to collect rent, and intending to drink the blood of tenants further. It is said that it is a farming and reading to pass on the family, but in fact one or two are more capitalists than capitalists. The direct loan shark can force self-cultivation farmers to bankruptcy and become tenants.
In such a large environment, it would be strange if you can grow high-yield crops unless you are crazy. Who doesn’t want to make more money? Whether it is pumpkin potatoes or sweet potatoes and corn, the advantage is high yield, and the disadvantage is high yield.
So much grain has poured into the market, and no matter how it is controlled, it is impossible to increase the price of grain. As a result, selling more grains makes half of the previous income. Even if you always close the position and buy it with all your strength, how much can you buy?
Who doesn’t have a small calculation? After calculation, it will be more beneficial to the country than harmful to the family, but more harmful to the family than beneficial. Of course, it cannot be planted. Not only can it not be planted, but it can also find ten thousand reasons to explain why it cannot be planted. Don’t underestimate those families, which have countless civil and military officials and generals in the family!
"Is there any way?" Cao Cao only felt a headache.
"Lord..." Wang Yong shook his head, looked at Cao Cao firmly and said, "I am just a cook, not a prime minister."
