Fu Xiyan: "The first idea is to increase the yield per mu, and the second idea is that soybeans are not used as staple food. Extracting soybean oil for cooking will make them full, and using soybean meal to raise pigs will make them full." Everyone was in an uproar.
Wang Eryan: "Master, didn't Fu Yi say that raising pigs is not cost-effective?" Fu Xiyan: "People only eat staple food and have no strength. Can you martial arts practitioners not eat meat? Officials, do you like to eat meat? Liu San Wa, Li Daniu, you also like to eat meat, right?" Everyone nodded.
Fu Xiyan: "Eating meat is the inevitable direction. If it is not cost-effective to raise pigs with soybean meal, we will use our brains to increase soybean yield and improve the effect of raising pigs with soybean meal. The yield issue has been discussed before. Li Daniu, can you tell us how to improve pig raising? Pig effect?" Li Daniu replied: "My piglets are good and they can grow big." Fu Xiyan: "Okay. In the future, Li Daniu will not only be an expert in farming, but also an expert in raising pigs. You agricultural experts, I will have a good Arrangement." Liu Sanwa and Li Daniu thanked them.
Fu Xi asked: "Li Daniu, let me ask you, when are pigs usually raised and killed?" Li Daniu replied: "It's during the Chinese New Year!" Fu Xi asked: "Why?" Li Daniu replied: "We eat better during the Chinese New Year. !" Fu Xi asked: "When do piglets usually grow faster?" Li Daniu replied: "They grow very fast in the first two months, and then slow down. At six months, they don't grow very much." Fu Xi asked: "Then why not kill it at six months?" Li Daniu replied: "Hey! I never thought about it! How can I be willing to kill pigs and eat them?" Everyone laughed.
Fu Xiyan: "If we want to raise pigs on a large scale, we must first change the diet structure of wealthy families to a combination of staple food, vegetables, and meat. This will not only provide nutrition but also reduce wheat consumption. Li Daniu wants to study how to make sows go into heat and conceive in a planned way. We You can continue to raise piglets." Li Daniu replied: "Master is smart, Daniu must raise pigs well." Fu Xi asked: "Everyone has your opinion." Zhao Qidong, the official's office, Cao Zuo, replied: "You can try it." Fu Xiyan good.
Fu Xiyan: "The third opinion is that peasant women who do not participate in water conservancy projects in winter should help landlords who run weaving workshops and be paid on a piece-rate basis. In winter, my Fu family uses a village in the east, south and north of the city for weaving. Workshop, and make winter clothes." Wang Er asked: "Give them food and pay them, can you afford it?" Household Cao Zuo Wang Houcai said: "Make them into clothes. Clothes are quite expensive, and you can buy food after selling them. But the problem is How many clothes can be made? Will these labor unions work hard?" Fu Xi replied: "The reason why farmers are allowed to repair water conservancy or weave cloth to make clothes in winter is to keep them fed and clothed through hard work. Only when they are fed and clothed can they Only when there is hope in life can we farm well, build water conservancy well, and weave and make clothes well, so that we can create more wealth. This is the only way. As for the risks involved, you have to bear them. If you keep going, you will definitely succeed." The four families were very high-spirited and all said: "We are willing to take this risk with you." Fu Xixi said: "Okay. Each of your four families will open a weaving workshop first. If the effect is good, we can all join together." Liu Sanwa asked: "How much is the output of ramie and kudzu in the county?" Wang Houcai replied: "Most farmers grow ramie, and kudzu is harvested from kudzu. There are about 50,000 acres of ramie in the county, and the average household is 5 acres. One acre is about The yield is 25 kilograms, which can be produced for two seasons. On average, one household can make 20 pieces of cloth, 4 pieces of cloth will be handed over to the king, and 2 pieces will be turned over to the county government. Most of them keep the cloth for themselves to fill their stomachs, and most of them sell the cloth in exchange for grain." Fu Xi asked: "How long does it take to spin and weave?" Liu Sanwa replied: "There are six women in my family. It takes two days to peel flax, spin thread, weave, and wash cloth. It takes two days to make a piece of cloth." Fu Xi asked: "What process takes so long? ?" Liu Sanwa replied: "Weaving takes a long time." Fu Xi thought for a while and said: "In the future, let each tenant only spin threads and not weave cloth, and focus on weaving and making clothes in winter. Those who are good at making clothes will specialize in making clothes. .Weaving, I am asking Xu Caozuo to develop a loom and use a machine to increase the weaving speed. If the machine is not developed in time, or the machine is developed but the number of machines is insufficient, we will use more labor to speed up. Then usually, the peasant women You can grow a variety of vegetables, raise more chickens and ducks, and make dried vegetables when there are more vegetables. You can have more vegetables to eat in winter. If you have more chickens and ducks, you can lay more eggs. Find ways to make farmers work more, produce more, and keep them fed and clothed. Warmth." Liu Sanwa and Li Daniu were particularly moved: "Master, you are really a good parent to our people!" Fu Xiyan: "Our county government now has six houses. I suggest adding more farmhouses and using Liu Sanwa as Cao Zuo. , Li Daniu is an official, responsible for the agricultural development of the county. Liu Sanwa focuses on the development of better seeds, the organization and training of agricultural technology. Li Daniu focuses on the organization and training of production technology for pigs, sheep, and cattle, and can also help with the breeding and breeding of military horses. Training. What do you think?" All the officials agreed.
Liu Sanwa and Li Daniu were overjoyed. They wanted to go back and see if smoke was rising from their ancestors' graves. A farmer actually became an official.
Fu Xiyan: "I said at the last meeting that officials and servants in each house should add work content to the central task of developing the economy and people's livelihood. We will discuss the specific content today. Let's talk about household houses first. In addition to regular revenue and expenditure work, they can also In my spare time, I cooperate with the Ministry of War and go to other counties to buy and sell soybeans, cloth, clothes and other matters. It is not only beneficial to the county's economy, but also can increase the income of the servants. This is adding tasks and adding income. If you are not serious about daily work and are not active in adding tasks, You can be persuaded to quit. If you perform well, you will be promoted and have a salary increase. Wang Caozuo will evaluate the officials, and the officials will evaluate the servants and stewards. The stewards will evaluate the general servants, and the general office will be evaluated." Wang Caozuo of the Household House, Zhao Caozuo, an official in the official's office, said so.
Fu Xiyan: "Hufang needs to do more things that are conducive to commercial development. I don't have a clue about the specifics. Please brainstorm ideas." Wang Houcai said yes.
Fu Xiyan: "Let's talk about the ceremony room. In addition to the regular ceremony room work, we must pay attention to children's education. We don't have enough financial resources to start it yet, but we need to make preparations. Find out the number and level of teachers in private schools in the county. They teach literacy and reasoning. . Please ask the household room to prepare arithmetic teaching materials and arithmetic teachers, ask the military room to prepare teaching materials and martial arts teachers for children's martial arts, and ask the work room to prepare teaching materials for learning crafts and various craftsman teachers. We must use more advanced agricultural tools, livestock, and agricultural technology to help Farmers produce. In the future, the same farmland will not require so many farmers. When they grow up, many children can work, serve as soldiers, errands, officials, and teachers. In the future, as more and more people work, our basic necessities, food, housing, and transportation will increase. "Okay, it's getting richer and richer. Liu Caozuo will divide these tasks and then assess the rewards and punishments." Lifang Caozuo Liu originally said.
