Some news, if the level is not enough, you can't even figure out the context at all. Xue Dading, as a state assassin, can know that Fang Xuanling's ancestral home is in Qinghe, and the gate court is in Licheng, and it is already very good to be able to make friends with the Cui family of Qinghe. But he is not from the center in the end, and many things are far less than Zhang De knows.

The BMW in Beijing, except for Li Dong, has the most, which is nothing more than those old men in the army. Li Fengjie took Li Zhen's waist card, borrowed two fast horses from Li Tao, and then sent the news from Chang'an to Luoyang, and Luoyang to Cangzhou.

"I see, King Zheng Li Yuanli moved to King Xu, and now he is the governor of Xuzhou."

Li Yuanli is three years younger than Zhang De, and he is also a little Langjun, and he often begs Cheng Chubi to take them to play outside the Wubenfang. is also a bear child who likes to ride a horse and shoot arrows, if it weren't for the strict control of the royal family, he would have come out and fly up a long time ago.

"This news comes at a timely time."

If you only look at the Shandong Shi clan welcoming Fang Xuanling this time, and Qinghe Cui's Qingzhou room reception, there is nothing wrong with it. After all, the courtyard of the Fang family is now in Licheng, belonging to Qingzhou, not Qinghe, the ancestral hometown.

But Zhang De connected some news, first of all, Li Feng commanded a news from Kuaima, the emperor asked Li Yuanli to move King Xu. And King Xu's mother is Guo Jieyu, Guo Jieyu is the sister of Guo Xiaoke, the assassin of Beizhou, and Li Yuanli was named the governor of Xuzhou, and the Sima of the governor's mansion is Cui Hongdao.

And Cui Hongdao is the person who received Fang Xuanling.

went around the boss's circle, but it turned out that they were all playing with their own people.

"Hmm...... The admonition has a heart. "According to the news that Li Fengjie inquired from the Zhongyi Society, this year the imperial court may transfer Guo Xiaoke from Beizhou, possibly to Zhaozhou. Or in Hebei Province. But this is not the point, the point is that someone promoted Guo Xiaoke as General Zuo Xiaowei.

That's kind of interesting. Although Zhang Gongjin doesn't care about things now, he is the big leader of Zuo Xiaowei in the end. And it's still an old leader. When fighting the Turks, he also made Li Jing his deputy, and his military status was not weak. If Guo Xiaoke really mixed up with General Zuo Xiaowei, then it would be equivalent to Zhang Gongjin's second-in-command.

Nominally, Guo Xiaoke is Zhang Gongjin's head.

It's hard to say anything else, Zhang De can use this name to sit down with Guo Xiaoke, the history of Beizhou. There is no problem at all with a call to Uncle Shi.

"Good!" As long as there is such a relationship, Qinghe Cui's side. can also talk about it, don't dare to say anything else, he also has the title of Liangfeng County man. In addition, Zhang Gongjin started back then, and the Qinghe Zhang family also helped, and after waving the gong, this incense can still be talked about.

However, Zhang De did not plan to communicate with Qinghe Cui through the Qinghe Zhang family, this was just a weight, to increase his own weight, and the actual meaning was not much.

"It seems that Li Er is not in a hurry to make steel this time. It is estimated that it is still on Qinghe Cui's body. ”

Thinking of this, Lao Zhang immediately smiled, since this is the case, let's hurry up and run Hebei Province well. This is different from Kannai Road. Guannei Road was eaten to death by Li Shimin, and the Yongzhou area was the basic plate of the Li family, and he wanted to make it bad. It's too hard. Hebei Province is different, after Zhang De came to Hebei. There are several states that come and go with him.

Most importantly, now in the tea business. Walking to the northern grassland, he is not afraid at all. Uncle Zhang's order can let Dingxiangjun help Zhang De as a bodyguard for free, and the reason is very good, deterring the Khitan.

The only thing that restricts Zhang De from taking tea is not the logistics or market, but the output. Tea is not wool, wool does not pick sheep, but tea it picks trees.

Only three or four years old tea trees can be picked, and the yield per mu is only about 30 catties. It is destined that tea cannot be sold at the price of cabbage, let alone the Tang Dynasty, even fifteen hundred years later, this is also something that cannot be solved.

Unless the leaves of the tea tree are all wiped out and can grow immediately with Overlord shampoo, then no one will say anything if it is sold at the price of cabbage.

When Lao Zhang was a liberal arts student leader, he also knew an inconspicuous little knowledge, that is, there are 18 tea-producing provinces in the country, and the total area of tea plantations barely exceeds 40 million mu.

This is China, which has completed industrialization, and under the conditions of modern agricultural technology and tea garden management, there is no way to completely turn tea into pickles, let alone the Tang Dynasty.

Zhenguan year's tea soup, he put green onions!

Regarding tea and money, Lao Zhang's only fortunate thing is that his hometown is Jiangyin, on the ground of Suzhou Mansion, those who are richer than him are not as well-connected, and those who are well-connected are not as rich as him, which is perfect.

Then the Xu family in Huzhou is his father-in-law, and all the tea plantations around Taihu Lake, he can use his connections for his own use, which is more perfect.

Subsequently, the Yuezhou Qian family, that is, the Huiji Qian family, because of the victory of the dead ghost father Zhang Gongyi, the Huiji Chashan not to mention all fell into the clutches of the Zhang family, at least it was also a lot of relationship. Even now, Qian Fan, the contemporary patriarch of the Huiji Qian clan, is still trying his best to regain the former foundation from the Jiangshui Zhang clan.

However, it is useless, since Zhang Gongjin asked Zhang De to go to the capital, Jiangshui Zhang's family is in Jiangnan, more and more rich, and more and more willful.

The source of tea is not a problem, the problem is to expand the area of tea plantation. The experience of Kannai Province cannot be placed in Hebei Province.

Guannei Province, such as Huaiyuan City, has a record of cultivated land area, not even 200,000 mu. However, as long as Hebei Province is not a mountainous county seat, it is at least 500,000 acres. All the counties are more than one million acres, and ten thousand hectares of fertile land are really not a matter of talk.

It's just that the land utilization rate is meaningless at this time, just a grain output, not to mention compared with Henan, even Hedong is not as good. Zhang De proposed to plant tea trees, and the reason why Xue Dading agreed was based on realistic conditions. The food deficit is a human factor, not land. But if you want the people under your rule to honestly hug their wives and make people, and then work hard, there is no benefit, no one is stupid.

Hebei is not suitable for planting tea trees, and the conditions are a bit difficult for tea trees. The precipitation and sunshine are not qualified, but the soil minerals are suitable tea soil, if you insist on planting, you can harvest a little, but if you want to say that you can do it all year round like the south, don't think about it.

Xue Dading did not ask the experts of agronomy about this matter, but after thinking about it again, in view of the situation of Cangzhou's vast land and sparse population, the development of tea plantations can make a transition within ten years. The first is to have an income, the second is that the tea plantation is not so complicated to serve compared to the farmland, and the labor tied up per unit of land is relatively small, and the third is that there are too many local ownerless lands, and the yellow flood area is often done, and the subdivision of cultivation is meaningless, and the overall planning is more reasonable.

In fact, Zhang De also knows very well that the northernmost part of the tea tree is generally Henan, and then extends to the east to the Shandong Peninsula, and Hebei basically has no yield at all.

But now the average price of tea is two or three hundred Wen, which is still the price of the tea bulk transaction in the market. To enter the consumer market, it is necessary to add 120 texts, and if you enter the territory of the right party members in Longlong, it will directly be 600 texts, and if you enter Tibet, it will be more than 800 texts, which is close to the same.

As for the north of Jinshan, it is really the same price, if Li Simo didn't have so much tea on hand, he could have sold about 300,000 yuan.

Compared to 1,500 years later, in the Zhenguan year of the seventh century AD, tea was in extreme supply.

If Li Shimin and Qinghe Cui's negotiate well, the market of 20 or 30 million people in the Datang Economic Circle will be enough to earn an iron-clad Taiji Palace. However, Lao Zhang did not take them seriously, and the person who now controls the most sea ships is none other than himself.

In addition to the original sea ships in Suzhou, the master craftsmen and workers provided by Xiao Ergongzi can also increase the production scale of pointed bottom boats.

The tonnage of a sharp-bottomed ship is about 150 tons, and a shipload of coarse tea, calculated as 100 wen a catty, is 30,000 gross profits. If you take the Silla line, sell tea when you go, and carry Silla women when you come back, it is so simple to get rich overnight.

If you insist on a description of the strength of Zhang De's current fleet, if Li Dong represents the world government, Lao Zhang is one of the four emperors, Whitebeard, with a particularly large scale, a lot of ships, a wide range of contacts and strong strength, but unfortunately the fly in the ointment is worse than the armed forces.

Even if the imperial court wants to start shipbuilding now, the production speed is far less than that of Zhang De. Moreover, Lao Zhang's new dock in Cangzhou is about to be built, the shipyard at the mouth of the Zhanghe River has also been planned, and the open-air shipyard has begun to build the first pointed bottom ship produced by Hebei Province.

In the short term, or five years, in the Bohai Sea, the Yellow Sea, and the East China Sea, no one will be able to challenge Zhang De's position in maritime trade.

And even if the Qinghe Cui clan wants to get a boat, they can only choose to cooperate, and the Qinghe Cui clan has no way to directly take it by force, because among the people who cooperate with Zhang De, there are the Boling Cui clan, the Kong family, the Yu family, and the remnants of the Southern Dynasty, as well as the upstart of Zuo Xiaowei, Zuo Wei, Zuo Wuwei, and the Emperor Li Yuan.

Even if Qinghe Cui's and Li Dong all killed Zhang Deyi and others, they would not be able to make a profit in the short term, because if it was the buyer of Haimao, Jiangshui Zhang's had been in business for many years before Yu Chang, the envoy of Suzhou City, helped. From the mouth of the Yangtze River to the north, with Liuqiu as a transit, although the profits are not as lucrative as those of Dongying or Silla Baekje, they also have a set of connections.

Whether it is objective reality or subjective will, Li Shimin and Qinghe Cui will not choose confrontation, this is a kind of rational thinking, even if it is from the heart, Li Shimin wishes that Zhang De would die......

Therefore, considering his own advantages, integrating all the information of Fang Xuanling's interview envoy this time, coupled with the analysis of the emperor's personal intentions, Zhang De boldly concluded: When he is sixteen years old, he will earn 200,000 yuan just for tea.

In order to work hard to create a little overlord learning machine, Lao Zhang must become a white fish in the wave of copper coins. (To be continued.) )
