Chapter 757: Sure enough, it's still Jia Xu's ruthlessness
Until high-yielding crops are not grown on a large scale, prices will certainly not be affordable. However, the high price will definitely attract some yeoman farmers to plant, especially many tidal flats, and the sandy texture is not suitable for growing traditional grains.
"Anyway, did you eat too much tonight?" Xiahoudun touched his stomach, even if it was for two people, but eating like this, it was a little too full.
"You really need to exercise...... How about we go to yoga and take a bath? Xun Yu looked at Guo Jia.
"Okay, okay." Guo Jia blushed and replied, yoga is nothing, but the bath in the back is ...... Xun Yu estimated that he would make a mistake.
"Hey, Yeon." Xiahoudun remembered something, "You are just pregnant now, and you haven't entered the peace period yet, forget about yoga or something, why don't you go out for a walk?" ”
Then he touched his stomach and continued: "Besides, in my case, I can't do yoga ......."
"How about I go out for a walk with you?" Wang Yong stepped forward and said warmly.
"I didn't ...... I can't help it...... I can only let you go for a walk with us......" Xiahoudun replied subconsciously.
"We'll go too!" Wei Yan and Xu Shu immediately surrounded them.
"You should only sleep when you're full...... It's stupid to even exercise or something. Cai Yan complained.
"Have you started to gain weight lately?" Hua Tuo asked casually.
"Uh...... Count me in on yoga! "That's what Cai Yan is most afraid of. Every time I feel fat, I will immediately think of the period when Yuan Shao was forced to lose weight, which has become a psychological shadow.
The three little kids also joined in the fun, and the family went out for a walk. I have to say that at night in the suburbs, although it is a little quiet, but in the faint moonlight, listening to the insects is quite romantic.
"I have to say, the sound of mosquito repellent is still very useful!" Xun Yu looked at Hua Tuo.
"This mosquito repellent has been selling better and better during this time." Hua Tuo said with a smile, if it comes out purely for the sake of atmosphere and romance, then the mosquitoes in the suburbs will definitely make those couples in love see the cruelty of reality.
The atmosphere is very warm now, and it is rare for a family to go out together like this, and many times they do their own thing. Maybe it's because there are too many families and some can't take care of them, and the second is because everyone has their own things to be busy with, and they don't have much time to get together.
The next day, represented by Xun Yu and Guo Jia, they directly explained the method of treating the symptoms. Wang Yong, as a cook, made the military ration version of tortillas, tacos, hash browns and mashed potatoes. Sweet potato vermicelli is also being made, but it will take time.
"Indeed, if the military rations are changed to high-yielding crops and wheat and rice are no longer purchased, the result will be that the price of high-yielding crops will increase and the price of wheat and rice will fall. Then one or two families need to take the lead, and it will be much easier to promote high-yielding crops. Cao Cao thought for a moment, and then affirmed this strategy.
Wen He ...... Do you have anything to add? Cao Cao suddenly looked at Jia Xu, although she has been silent, but she seems to be very calm, if she shows such an expression, then it means that she also has ideas.
"In fact, there are easier ways to get the families to compromise and even have to grow a lot of high-yielding crops." Jia Xu thought for a while, "It depends on Your Majesty, and whether the third prince has the courage to do so." ”
"Oh, let's hear it!" Cao Cao was immediately curious, she had a hunch that Jia Xu could give a solution to the root cause.
"Can sweet potatoes and corn be brewed?" Jia Xu looked at Wang Yong.
"Not only corn and sweet potatoes, but potatoes and pumpkins can make wine...... Of course, the recipe varies, but basically, apart from the sweet potato wine, which is sweet, and the pumpkin wine, which is softer, the corn wine and potato wine, are strong. Wang Yong replied, remembering that the vodka of the polar wool bear was brewed with potatoes.
"Spirits can clean wounds, or the high alcohol extracted can disinfect them, right?" Jia Xu continued to ask.
"That's true." Wang Yong nodded, he already knew Jia Xu's thoughts.
"Then, it is completely possible to purchase potato alcohol as a military item. Of course, this is only one aspect, and the subordinates suggested that the tax rate could be reduced for wine made from high-yield crops. But on the other hand, the tax rate of water and wine brewed from other grains will be increased, especially for those brewed from wheat, sorghum, corn and rice, and the tax rate will be doubled! Jia Xu proposed.
On the other hand, there is a tax cut, on the other hand, a tax increase, and what kind of wine to brew, wine merchants have a scale in their hearts. The key is not the problem of alcohol, but the fact that it starts from the tax aspect, which gives many people a lot of ideas.
"In other words, tax cuts can also be made for high-yielding crops and increase tax ...... traditional grains," Guo muttered.
"The problem is that it will definitely cause a backlash from the family!" Sima Yi protested.
"I didn't say anything about the family!" Xun Yu came forward to defend Guo Jia, "In response to the increase in the transaction tax of grain merchants, we are targeting grain merchants, not the crops themselves!" ”
"It's just that the businessmen will pass on the raised part to the people!" Sima Yi retorted.
"Don't forget...... Xun Yu replied, "the purchase price of high-yield crops will decrease, and at the same time, the demand will increase, resulting in higher profits." Selling traditional crops, but with a lower margin, due to higher prices, resulting in lower sales. And high-yield crops, not only more profits, but also large purchases, grain merchants unless there is a problem with the braincase, otherwise they will inevitably choose the latter! ”
So the victim is the family that grows traditional crops, at least the people will not plant on a large scale, they will also grow vegetables and soybeans or something, so there is no big problem. However, the family cultivated it on a large scale, but the grain merchants did not buy it, so unless it was transported to other places for sale, it could only make these grains become old grains.
It is also possible to make wine, but don't forget that the tax on wine for traditional grains has also been raised! The result is nothing more than this: either switch to high-yielding crops, or wait to lose money!
Not to mention, if the military completely switches to high-yield crops as military rations, and loses the part of military procurement, it will lose even more. This is placed at the level of the imperial court, using yang conspiracy to force those families to plant high-yield crops instead!
"Bang bang bang...... It is worthy of Jia Wenhe, wonderful. Sima Yi clapped his hands, and then mocked, "But don't forget, when the time comes, high-yield crops will be flooded and ordinary crops will be reduced, then there will be problems." ”
"The tax rate should have been changed every year, or every two years, at the latest three years. Even adjust to temporary needs, rather than staying the same. According to the needs of the country, the adjustment of the tax rate can better promote some policies and needs. Jia Xu replied.
When there are more high-yielding crops, then the tax rate on high-yielding crops should be appropriately raised, and traditional crops should be encouraged at the same time. In the end, the tax revenues of both sides are almost the same, maintaining a balance point to ensure the retention rate of various crops.
"By extension, it can even lead to social consumption, such as luxury goods, spices, and seasonings." Xun Yu really drew inferences from one another, and quickly thought of something else.
"So, let's discuss this issue!" Cao Cao was really comfortable at the moment.
