Zhang De has always been very accustomed to sudden entertainment. When I came to Yizhou, in addition to the way of Cheng Mingzhen, the assassin of Zhaozhou, there was also the cotton planting in Hebei Province, which should be arranged in advance. A textile industry without cotton is meaningless. Although wool spinning and silk can also make money, it is not for nothing that clothing, food, shelter and transportation are later dominated by cotton.

Cotton is more productive and inexpensive than silk, easier to process and use in all seasons than wool, and more comfortable and easy to process than linen.

Although the climate is not the same as that of 1,500 years later, and the temperature in Zhenguan is obviously colder, Zhang De boldly judged that Hebei Province at the same latitude has more suitable land, which can also ensure cotton production.

After industrialization, cotton planting, under good conditions, the rate of peaching and fertilizing is done well, so the yield of cotton per mu can reach 600 catties.

Of course, this 600 catties can only be an excellent condition, and the actual yield per mu is about 200 catties on average. According to the current situation in Hebei Province, Zhang De decided to increase production by cultivating land area.

As long as cotton is popularized, the cotton spinning industry in Hebei Province can quickly destroy the clothing habits of the countries and states in the northeast region. And in winter, it can further expand the scope of operations and provide more efficient security guarantee for the commercial activities of China Resources.

Because Fan Yang Lu's family was played by Li Shimin, and his power was rapidly shrunk from Yingzhou, Pingzhou, Jizhou, and Youzhou, although Zhang De did not directly take over the ownership of these acres, he still indirectly asked his allies to explore more output value from the land.

After Liu Hongji arrived. smiled awkwardly, and then squeezed out a kind expression: "Da Lang is here." It's really a joy to the old man, please. Please! ”

Seeing the old rascal's sad eyes, Zhang De couldn't help but pity him, and said in his heart that he was persecuting such an old man, would it be too much? After thinking about it carefully, Zhang De decided to intensify his efforts and not squeeze out the last drop of Liu Hongji's bone oil, and write his Zhang De's name upside down.

"Liu Gong is in good spirits, and he is strong when he is old, and he is also happy when he sees virtue today. A little bit of a gift. Liu Gong didn't want to laugh. As he spoke, Zhang De took out a silver box from his sleeve, with many patterns engraved on it.

"Da Lang has always been good at building, and the old man appreciates it very much, I don't know what this is?"

When the old rascal saw that there was a gift, it suddenly turned cloudy and clear, and his mood was really happy. Others don't know that Zhang Caozhi's strange skills are really well-known.

Open it and take a look. Inside the silver box is a tortoiseshell-framed reading glasses.

"Glass mirror?"

Zhang De arched his hand and smiled: "I heard that Liu Gong is busy with official affairs, and his eyesight is very consumed, and he occasionally sees things in a trance. Every time De hears about it, he is worried. After a few thoughts, a few carvings, fortunately a pair of glasses. to relieve the pain of chaos in both eyes. ”

Optometry or something, it's better to die.

"This texture. This ornament, is it ...... Is it a hawksbill turtle? ”

Tortoiseshell is expensive. Liu Hongji wants to mix some tortoiseshell turtles as crown jade decorations in Chang'an, but it's not impossible, but it's a pity that it's very expensive. Those who can use tortoiseshells to squander are basically princes, county kings, and then the nine lackeys of Xuanwu Gate plus the four heavenly kings.

Although Li Jing is low-key, the sons of Pharmacist Li, the swords are inlaid with tortoiseshell.

"It's just a thing, Liu Gong don't dislike it."

Where will there be any dislike, Liu Hongji thought to himself that this little bastard came to the knife, and this bit of cheapness is not taken advantage of.

So I picked it up, pondered it, and put my reading glasses on.

Looking at it, the old rascal's tiger body was shocked: "It's really ingenious, fuck it, your skills are unparalleled in the world." ”

Zhang De was ashamed: "It is not the merit of virtue, it is actually the craftsmanship of the craftsman at home, although a lot of glass is folded, but I am also fortunate to get a few pairs, Liu Gong does not dislike it." ”

The reading glasses were ready to be given away, and Lu Deming, who said that he was going to die in the spring, still didn't die, so Lao Zhang asked Wang Wansui to send a pair of reading glasses.

Then Yu Shinan and Tang Jian asked for a pair, then Xiao Yu also asked for a pair, and then Du Ruhui got another pair.

Originally, it was going to be given to Fang Xuanling, but Fang Xuanling left Beijing and went to Hebei Province, but it was not delivered.

This time he was going to give Fang Xuanling a gift, but Liu Hongji was just stained......

After a group of sycophants, drinking for three rounds, and all kinds of little ladies came over to show off their bodies, Liu Hongji wore reading glasses and whispered tentatively: "here, is it for the room?" ”

"Fang Xiang is the first priority, but when De came to Yizhou, he also had something to ask Liu Gong for. It's just that I don't know if Liu Gong can make it convenient......"

“……”

Zhang De held the wine glass, smiled, and looked at the bureaucrats in Yizhou. The staff of the Assassin's Mansion all felt that the chrysanthemum was tight, and they always felt that Zhang Caozhi was really a little extraordinary, and when he came coldly, the atmosphere of the whole banquet immediately changed.

At this moment, even the accompanying singers also understood that the important officials in the Yizhou officialdom had become restrained because of this little boy.

"Ahem...... Cough! The old rascal coughed, then looked at Zhang De, "I don't know what's the difficulty?" The old man has something to do, and he will do his best to ......"

"Whoa!"

Zhang De put down the wine glass, stretched out his hand to stop Liu Hongji from continuing, then looked at the old rascal and said indifferently: "Liu Gong, just do your best, I'm afraid you won't be able to do something." De is a little trivial, but it still doesn't bother Liu Gong. ”

Don't! No hassle! As officials in Yizhou, the last thing we are afraid of is trouble!

"No trouble, no trouble...... But if you ask for something, the old man will definitely do it! ”

The surrounding singers were all delicate, and suddenly felt that the life of the assassin was not very good.

Several county orders all lowered their heads and didn't dare to speak, in this situation, a fool can also see that Zhang Caozhi came prepared, and he was determined to win. If Liu Tingshi didn't satisfy him, he would definitely have to play tricks with Fang Xiang.

couldn't help but secretly wonder if a few county magistrates would kill Zhang De at the banquet now, so that there would be nothing to do.

But after thinking about it, if Zhang De dies here, I'm afraid that Fang Xuanling will have to find trouble with Liu Hongji tomorrow. Liu Hongji is in trouble. Those of them who are subordinate officials, are they better off?

Alas...... Why didn't Zhang Caozhi come to Yizhou when he didn't come?

"Liu Gong. What virtue asks for is easy. Zhang De smiled. Put down the wine glass and put up an index finger, "First, Suicheng, Yixian, Yixian, Laishui, Yongle, the five counties want to get 1.5 million acres of open fields." ”

As soon as the words came out, Liu Hongji was startled, and the whole person trembled, and said in his heart, you Zhang Caozhi should kill me, I won't live anymore.

"Liu Gong doesn't need to panic. These acres of land are not under the name, but just a certain desire to plant a thing, regardless of the open field, even if it is a Yongye field, as long as someone cultivates it, the more the better. However, there are farmers who have planted this thing, and the annual ration is sold at the price of Chang'an grain in the fifth year of Zhenguan. ”

Zhang De took a sip of sake. Then he continued, "The farmer who planted this thing, after the field was registered, a certain farmer of his own came to guide the farming. And one acre of output. All of them are purchased at the grain price of Chang'an for three years in Zhenguan. ”

"Hiss......"

Although Liu Hongji was born as a horse thief, he is not an idiot, one in and one out. How much Zhang Caozhi has to lose. One and a half million acres of land, this is, not one hundred and fifty acres.

But because of that. Liu Hongji was even more shocked by Zhang De's financial resources, such a sixteen-year-old boy. How could anyone have done such things in the past? As soon as you open your mouth, you will be up and down.

Zhang De is not in a hurry, cotton must be a product in demand, and the yield per mu must not be too high, even if he loses ...... It's a loss, it's a loss.

"If the farmer fails to harvest, a certain person will make up the one-year ration of the household registration, and the grain in the coming year will be given for free according to one mu and one stone."

This is a very good promise, which is equivalent to an insurance.

It's just that the Yizhou bureaucrats are not stupid, what if you run away?

Lao Zhang seemed to know what they were thinking, so he said: "You don't have to worry about a certain dishonesty, as long as you are willing to cooperate, you can guarantee that the 300,000 yuan cash of China Resources Company will be deposited in Yi County, and the owner of Yi County can inspect it every month." In addition to the lord of Yi County, the scribes of the Yizhou Assassin Mansion can also be inspected with the warrant of the Assassin and a seal. ”

300,000 times!

The corners of the bureaucrats' mouths twitched, what a big stroke.

The five county magistrates have been shocked, swallowing saliva, if everyone divides it, one person can get 60,000 yuan. 60,000 yuan, you may not be able to get so much after being an official for five years. Yizhou is a poor place, and it is not easy to be an official.

The eyes of the bureaucrats who accompanied the wine were shining, and their pupils all turned into Kaiyuan Tongbao, Liu Hongji was stunned for a while before he came to his senses: "This, Da Lang, there is one of them, there is another two, what is the other?" ”

"Second, Cheng Gong, the assassin of Zhaozhou, also hopes that Liu Gong will help introduce him." Zhang De didn't explain much, just one sentence.

Lao Liu thought to himself, why does Cheng Mingzhen want the old man to introduce him? There are still governors in your family, and they have all been mixed in the border army, how can you find an old man to pay for this favor?

Zhang De smiled slightly, and then said: "After that, there are still some small things, and I hope that Liu Gong will help Cheng Gong to sell one or two." ”

Push...... Salesmanship......

Liu Hongji was furious, the businessman is cheap, the old man actually helped you to be a salesman, it's too much! It's tolerable, it's unbearable, how can the old man be so cheap!

"This ...... I don't know what you want to arrange in Zhouzhou? ”

The old rascal asked cautiously.

"Have you ever drunk wine?" Zhang De picked up the wine glass, played with it, and whispered, "Grape wine glow-in-the-dark glass, if you want to drink the pipa, urge it immediately...... In the land of Zhaozhou, I want to plant grapes in acres. ”

What?! Growing grapes?!

Lao Liu looked confused, after Lao Tzu was a dignified nobleman, and he was an elder, and now he is an elder with tortoiseshell eyes, you actually asked Lao Tzu to help you match and then promote grape planting?

"Wine?!"

A group of bureaucrats' eyes suddenly lit up, "Zhang Liangfeng actually has such skills, even wine can be made?" ”

"The matter of brewing is as easy as a snap, if you are interested, in your spare time, it is better to ask for advice together."

"Great goodness, great goodness, solid wishes!"

Wine is a trough, can you grow grapes in Zhaozhou? I can sell as much wine as I produce that year. The imperial court did not allow the wine to be made, which means that the koji is sold by itself, and if the grain wine is made, some places will be strictly checked, and the official wine shop may not let you sell it locally.

Local protectionism did not exist 1,500 years later.

But if it's wine or Sanle soup, that's fine.

As the saying goes, there are policies and countermeasures, can grapes be food? Isn't it right to eat grapes for dinner? But you can't stop drinking wine, how can you do without wine in officialdom?

The most important point is that the wine is very expensive. If this can be mixed with one and a half shares, wouldn't it be faster than corruption and bribery?

For a while, everyone at the banquet was wet...... (To be continued.) )
