Chapter 411: Huaxia Leads the Trend
PS: It was a mess after moving, and it was finally cleaned up! He let out a long sigh.
Zhao Hongyu and his father-in-law, the black bear, walked into the manor villa, and a kind of servant continued to be busy after they left.
"When are you going to get this food?"
After taking a seat in the luxurious living room, a black maid brought a cup of hot tea and put it in front of Zhao Hongyu.
"About ten days from now, after all, there are still a lot of supplies to prepare. The supplies for 50,000 people to survive the winter are not ready so quickly. ”
Hearing this, Zhao Hongyu replied.
The black bear nodded, and he also understood that this matter really could not be rushed.
Fifty thousand immigrants is not a small number, and when the Mossi tribe had a population of more than 12,000, it was not very easy for the old chief to manage a tribe.
"So you just told me that you had a deal to introduce to me, and I want to know what kind of deal this is."
The two of them were talking about this topic before, but it was only temporarily diverted.
Now, the black bear has turned the conversation back on again.
"You need farm tools and some iron weapons, as well as a lot of horses and vehicles, which is a lot of money. Anyway, on the premise that the fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, I plan to hand over these materials to your father-in-law to prepare, and the government will come forward to purchase them. ”
After listening to Zhao Hongyu's words, the black bear's heart moved, he quickly calculated in his heart, and finally came to a conclusion that made him very excited.
If you prepare the things he said according to the immigration figures Zhao Hongyu said, then the profits in it will be great.
Then, Zhao Hongyu told the black bear about the prices of farm tools and iron weapons, as well as horses and vehicles.
And the most dear also told him that at this price, the black bear can go and let the tribesmen do it.
Among them, Zhao Hongyu will not care how much the black bear can earn. Anyway, as long as it doesn't exceed the price he gave, it's fine.
At the same time, it is also necessary to ensure the quality and not defective products.
The black bear slapped his chest with a 'Peng Peng' sound, promising that he would never use fakes to perfunctory Zhao Hongyu.
However, he also told Zhao Hongyu that among these materials, there is one that is more difficult to do.
"Son-in-law, I can prepare most of the materials you said, and I also know that you are sending me money to earn them. However, there are some things that I think it is better to tell you first, otherwise it will have a great impact on the immigration plan. ”
"Oh, what's the matter?" , Zhao Hongyu couldn't help but be curious when he saw his father-in-law being so serious.
The black bear said: "Farm tools and iron weapons. There is no problem with the vehicles, my people have a good hand in blacksmithing and carpentry skills after studying at the Lanxiang Technical School, but the horses are now restricted by the military department, and they are used as strategic reserves. ”
Yes, the Song Empire lacked cavalry.
Fortunately, Zhao Hongyu bought a lot of horses from the space-time trader and stocked them in this world.
It can be said that his horse herd is on the American continent. That's unique.
And the formation of the empire's cavalry also depends on the horses under Zhao Hongyuming.
Therefore, it is very unrealistic for Zhao Hongyu to buy some horses and give them to those immigrants.
Today, the cavalry corps is still being formed. For horses there is a big gap.
Therefore, there is simply no way to have a surplus of horses for sale.
Even if there were, it was ordered by the military department as early as possible.
Of course, as Zhao Hongyu, he can intervene temporarily. Forcibly led the horses away.
Anyway, his identity is here, and if he really does this, no one will say anything.
However, the impact is not very good.
And. The military department had already paid a deposit and booked all the horses sold in ten years.
So, the black bear had to remind his son-in-law.
In the concept of black bears, there is no such thing as a privilege.
The Indians are all about fairness and integrity.
Although the black bear was herding the horses instead of Zhao Hongyu, he collected the money instead of Zhao Hongyu.
Since it was already what he had promised, the black bear felt that he had to do what he had promised.
If he had sold the horses ordered by the military department to those immigrants, wouldn't he have become a dishonest man?
And if an Indian is not honest, he will be despised by all Indians.
In the world of the Indians, he will no longer have a place.
At the same time, the Black Bear is also the leader of the Mohicans and the father of Queen Emma.
If his reputation suffers, it's definitely not his business alone.
If you carry it, it will affect your family.
Therefore, the black bear opened his mouth to remind Zhao Hongyu that if necessary, he had decided to disobey his son-in-law once on the issue of horses.
After all, when it comes to integrity, black bears take it very seriously.
Besides, as the leader of the Mohicans, if he is not honest, the matter will be spread. Will there be people from other tribes who will integrate into the empire and become citizens of the Mohicans in the future?
The Indians were very contemptuous of dishonest tribal leaders.
Obviously, compared with the moral decline of later generations, the Indians of this era regarded integrity as important as life.
"Although the herd is yours, I'm just grazing it instead of you. But the money from the military department has passed through my hands, and it has been deposited in your cellar. So, I need to make it clear. ”
The black bear's expression was extremely serious.
When Zhao Hongyu heard this, he remembered, "No, how did I forget about this." 'Well, this thing.
At the same time, Zhao Hongyu felt some regret in his heart.
Of course, he knew that the Indians valued integrity, and he would not blame the black bear for disobeying him.
He just forgot about this matter, and he would never let his father-in-law be criticized because of this incident.
"Father-in-law, I'm so embarrassed, I forgot about it. I really blamed me, I didn't think about it, so the horses still did as promised. Go ahead and provide it to the military department. ”
Although Zhao Hongyu's status is transcendent, he will not use this identity to highlight his power.
Seeing that Zhao Hongyu was as good as a stream, listened to his own opinions and gave an explanation, the black bear breathed a sigh of relief.
"My good son-in-law, you can think so." , The black bear smiled at Zhao Hongyu very pleased. However, he thought about it, 50,000 people do need some animal power to do things, so the unbelievable son-in-law would make such a request.
Now the horses can't be given, but they have to solve the problem themselves.
After thinking about it. The black bear said to Zhao Hongyu: "Horses can't be given, but cattle can be given some." This year's herd has given birth to a lot of calves, and even after a year of supplying Manhattan beef, there are still a lot of cows in the herd. ”
Zhao Hongyu heard the sound of 'hmm', and woke up a little.
Yes, as soon as the black bear reminded him, Zhao Hongyu remembered it.
If the horse can't move, the cow can.
Ploughing the land, pulling the cart. Oxen are better than horses for work.
Why did you forget about it?
Zhao Hongyu raised his hand and patted his forehead with some remorse.
"Well, how did I forget about this herd. Horses are easy to use, but cows are also very useful. ”
"Son-in-law, what do you mean. Cows can also be right? ”
Black Bear asked.
"Yes, of course, yes." , Zhao Hongyu said to the black bear.
When the black bear heard this, he said, "In that case. I can provide 2,000 cattle to the immigrants, but I don't know if it will work. ”
2,000 head of cattle, although it is still a small amount for 50,000 immigrants. But it is also possible to use a ploughing cow for 25 people.
Besides, this amount can be expanded by the end of next year.
In this way, the problem is solved.
Thinking of this, Zhao Hongyu nodded happily.
"Yes, of course. If you can, provide some more sheep, which can produce goat's milk, which can be regarded as an additional food for these immigrants. ”
In this way, with the conversation between Zhao Hongyu and the black bear, the problem of rations and animal power of the immigrants was solved.
On Manhattan Island, there are many types of cattle and sheep that black bears raise by themselves and in place of Zhao Hongyu, beef cattle, as well as cultivated cattle and old cattle, all of which Zhao Hongyu bought from the space-time trader.
At the same time, Zhang Tie also buys a lot every month and gives it to black bears for grazing.
Even Song Hu, who was far away in Ontario City, did not take the development of animal husbandry lightly.
After all, grazing meat is easier and less dangerous than hunting.
Many French people in Quebec will go to Ontario City or Manhattan to buy more cattle, cattle, sheep, pigs and other animals back to graze.
Now, animal husbandry in the three regions has slowly begun to form a virtuous circle.
So, on the American continent, the citizens of the empire were no longer short of meat.
Even the Indians, whose demand for meat began to decrease, began to favor a variety of fresh vegetables.
At first, the Indians were not happy without meat, because there were few types of food, and they had nothing to eat without meat.
But now it's different, the food of the empire is getting more and more varied, so people are starting to eat more and more carefully as they get older.
At the same time, the genetic people of Chinese descent have also inherited a talent of the Chinese ethnic group, that is, they are very particular about eating.
Therefore, under the drive and influence of the Chinese gene people in the empire, the citizens of other races also began to learn the diet of the Chinese gene people.
After all, the power of role models is endless, who makes Huaxia Gene people always lead the trend of the empire and walk at the forefront of the trend.
And as the most noble class in the empire, it is normal to be imitated by others.
Because people have such a blind obedience mentality, they like to learn everything from those in the upper echelons, so that they can become as if they are the same as each other.
Perhaps, this is vanity at work. (To be continued.) )
