Chapter 665: Duck Raising for All

Dahua officials found that the emperor only transferred Xun Yu and did not involve anyone else.

It seems that the emperor only punishes the first evil, and as for the others, there is no problem for the time being.

Then, Lu Bu issued an order that made the civil and military officials feel inexplicable.

That is, to order officials in various places to mobilize the people after returning to raise more ducks.

Not only the common people, but also those wealthy businessmen, officials, etc., must raise ducks at home.

Even Lu Bu linked this year's performance assessment to the number of duck breeds.

Linking duck raising to political performance is really a ridiculous and unprecedented thing.

But the emperor gave such an inexplicable order, and they were also helpless.

There was no way, after the officials from all over the country went back, they had to go all out to mobilize the people to raise ducks.

And some areas, especially Shanghai, can be said to have the highest per capita income in the whole of Dahua, and there is no one.

Many people are very wealthy, and ordinary small money is no longer eye-catching, so let them raise ducks, they will not agree, it is simply impossible.

Now it is the emperor who persecutes the courtiers, but the magistrates really dare not persecute the people.

There was no way, the county guard of Shanghai County had to let those merchants open farms.

In order to make the merchants raise ducks willingly, they do not hesitate to give all kinds of preferential policies, for example, the tax of their business, can be discounted by seven and so on.

As soon as this method came out, it immediately attracted a large number of merchants to open duck farms.

In terms of scale and quantity, it surpassed other regions, which made the county guards of Shanghai County quietly breathe a sigh of relief.

However, these taxes can only be paid by Shanghai County itself.

This made the county guard of Shanghai County feel distressed like something.

Officials in various localities have tried every means to encourage and stimulate the people to raise ducks, and various preferential policies have been introduced.

This can't help but make the people a little baffled, I don't know what the hell the government is doing?

With so many people raising ducks together, will they be able to sell them when the time comes?

But now the policy given by the government is very good, and they are extremely impressed, and after thinking about it, they still decide to raise ducks.

So, because of Lu Bu's order, a trend of raising ducks was set off in the whole Dahua.

If you want to raise ducks, you must have ducklings.

In order to have ducklings, it is necessary to have fertilized duck eggs for hatching.

However, the entire Dahua is almost the whole population raising ducks, which directly leads to the lack of duck eggs in Dahua.

As a result, they had to buy a large number of fertilized duck eggs from Cao Cao and Shu Han.

This has led directly to the skyrocketing price of duck eggs.

Shu Han and Cao Cao were a little inexplicable when they saw Dahuaguo buying fertilized duck eggs on a large scale.

Why did Dahua buy so many fertilized duck eggs? What are their intentions? There won't be any intrigue, right?

But if they want to break their heads, they will not think of any conspiracy to raise ducks.

And the price of duck eggs has been scrambled to a very high price.

With duck eggs, the people under their jurisdiction can have more income.

Naturally, they will not object to such a good thing.

Therefore, the merchants of Dahua were allowed to buy fertilized duck eggs in Shu Han and Cao Cao.

The collection of fertile eggs from all over the world is finally barely enough for the great cause of duck breeding in Dahua.

……

In the palace, Guo Jia, Pang Tong and Jia Xu, three cabinet scholars were in the upper study.

Guo Jia couldn't help blinking his eyes and asked curiously: "Your Majesty, I'm in Dahuaguo, why do you want to raise ducks in the whole country?" ”

Lu Bu smiled mysteriously, looked at Guo Jia with a smile, and then said to him: "Well, the secret of heaven must not be revealed, you will know when the time comes, haha!" ”

Hearing the emperor's words, Guo Jia couldn't help but roll his eyes.

The emperor ordered the entire Dahua country to raise ducks, and there must be his reasons.

But as for what this reason is, Guo Jia really can't think of it even if he wants to break his head.

In fact, it's not just Guo Jia? Jia Xu and Pang Tong, all three of them are like this.

These three such smart people can't think of it together, and I'm afraid that no one in the whole world can guess Lu Bu's thoughts.

Guo Jia couldn't help asking, "Your Majesty, aren't you still worried about the three of us?" Out of your mouth, into our ears, you can rest assured, we will never spread it! ”

Lu Bu laughed, and then said to the three of them: "Raising ducks in the whole country is actually just a wonderful idea of mine, and when the time comes, it may not be able to come in handy." ”

"It's just useless, it's just a matter of raising some more ducks. But if it really comes in handy, so many ducks can be said to be worth 100,000 elite soldiers! ”

What the?

It's good that the emperor doesn't explain, but the emperor's explanation, Guo Jia, Jia Xu and Pang Tong can't help but be even more confused.

What is the use of ducks?

It's worth 100,000 elite soldiers, please, don't make trouble!

If raising ducks can be worth 100,000 elite soldiers, then why do we recruit soldiers, just raise ducks!

But they also knew in their hearts that since the emperor said so, there must be his reason in it.

There are some things that no one will believe until they have actually happened.

Before it happens, I'm afraid few people will believe it, no matter what you say.

For example, before the emperor went out for winter fishing, if someone told them that they had to smash dozens of holes in the ice in the winter, put the net down, and one net could catch dozens of catties of fish, would they believe it?

They will only think that the person who says this is a madman.

But the emperor really used this method to catch 300,000 catties of fish in one net!

Therefore, this time the emperor said that raising ducks can be worth 100,000 elite soldiers, and they can only reluctantly believe it.

Soon, the ducklings in the people's homes were hatched, and in the yard of the farmhouse, there were more fluffy and cute ducklings, and there were more chirping sounds.

Each household should raise at least a dozen ducks, and many even dozens of ducks.

Because basically most places in Dahua have introduced a new policy, raising ducks can be reduced or exempted.

According to the number of ducks, if the number of ducks can reach 300, the tax is directly exempted.

Now Dahua has the confidence and strength to reduce the people's taxes.

Even if there is no agricultural tax for three or two years, it will not have much impact.

In the past few years, in order to promote duck breeding for all, it can be said that Dahua has fought hard.

Among the three types of domestic animals, chickens, ducks and geese are the most edible.

Ducks are miscellaneous animals, and there is nothing that it does not eat as long as it can eat grains, bugs, and tadpoles.

And the duck's digestion is fast, and what it eats, it can be digested quickly.

If the feeding keeps up, the ducks grow very quickly.

Of course, now the people feed the ducks more to complete the task, but no one deliberately makes the ducks grow crazy.
