Chapter 1008 Changsun Chong: Is this still possible?(2/2)
But compared to those potatoes that don’t know how much they are worth, what he cares about is the gold.
If the Du family could own such a large gold mine rich in dog-headed gold, it would have been completely developed.
"Second brother, Your Highness, no matter what he does, he has never missed anything. I don't think this potato is an exception. There are hundreds of crew members on the ship, and many of them have witnessed the discovery and excavation of potatoes. Even if the yield per mu is a thousand kilograms is an incomplete accurate number, but the yield per mu is seven or eight hundred kilograms, I think there must be some.
The most important thing is that according to the principle that rare things are expensive, the price of potatoes will inevitably have a process from high to low. A pound of potatoes grown a few years ago may be able to exchange for several pounds of rice, but in the later stage, I estimate that it will be difficult to exchange for a pound of potatoes for one pound of rice.
If we can plant a year earlier than others, we can enjoy the high-priced dividends of potatoes earlier and open up a new and stable source of profit for the family."
Du Gou has always been relatively conservative in his actions.
What he mainly likes to grow agriculture, cotton and sugarcane, and he is very supportive of it.
But he was very hesitant to ask him to go to the workshop city to build the workshop.
In his opinion, it is still reliable to deal with the land.
Even if he grows grapes and rice, he is willing to do so.
"If Tudou really said this to your elder brother, will His Royal Highness the King of Chu be willing to sell potatoes to us?"
Putting his heart in his heart, Du He felt that he must have such a good thing in his hands.
"This is the difference between you and His Highness the King of Chu. You only see the losses of one city and one pool, and only care about your own losses; but His Highness the King of Chu sees the entire Tang Dynasty, and considers the development of the entire Tang Dynasty.
Although the Chu Palace can be left to plant all of these seeds for itself, if they are distributed to each noble and each family plant some, or to support a typical example and make it a model to promote potato planting, wouldn’t it be more conducive to the promotion of potatoes?
For His Royal Highness, promoting potato planting as soon as possible and promoting potato planting according to his ideas is the most important thing. So what we need to do is to make the Du family a typical assistance model for the Chu Palace to promote potato planting.
As long as it is not an excessive request, we can agree to whatever they ask. Tomorrow I will go to the King of Chu’s Mansion in person and have a good chat with His Highness the King of Chu.”
Dugou has gained great benefits from cotton and sugarcane cultivation.
He doesn't do any deep processing of cotton or deep processing of sugarcane, he just grows cotton and sells cotton; the same is true for sugarcane.
In this way, he avoided the risk of price fluctuations in cotton cloth and reduced a lot of losses.
...
"Aye, Zheng Hai and I have already discussed it and form a fleet together, dig a group of sailors from the expedition fleet of Guanshishan Academy, and set off for America next month. At that time, we will directly smelting gold mines in the Americas, even if we only travel back and forth a year, we will get rich returns."
Changsun Chong, who was stimulated by the dog-headed gold, discussed the matter with Zheng Hai completely about the fleet going to sea today.
Currency is naturally not gold, gold is naturally currency.
With the expansion of the scope of gold coins, the value of gold became increasingly important in the Tang Dynasty.
Going to dig gold has become the dream of many people.
"I don't object to joining forces with the Zheng family to form a fleet! But I don't think it's necessary to go out to sea in advance. You can follow the fleet of Guanshishan Academy and slowly go to America. This way, you don't have to dig their sailors to avoid the premature intensification of conflicts, and you can also enjoy the success of following them to America.
Of course, it is definitely necessary to find a few sailors to find out the location of the gold mine. I thought that even if someone digs gold and silver mines with them in the Americas, he would probably choose to pinch his nose to accept it in order to stimulate more people to go to Americas."
I have to say that Changsun Wuji is really scheming.
Li Kuan's thoughts are very accurate.
"Can this still happen?"
Changsun Chong showed a surprised expression on his face.
He was originally going to get cheaper from the Chu Prince's Mansion, and he had already made plans to break up with Li Kuan.
Now, after hearing this analysis by Aye, I seem to be completely overthinking.
Even if you follow others openly and dig gold mines, it is OK?
When did this world become so friendly to itself?
"Why not? Just arrange it according to this!"
