Chapter 69 People and People

I may not believe it when I say it. The people in the Hetao area of ​​Zhenguan Dynasty were very interested in planting trees and afforestation, and were "happy with it."

The reason is probably to prevent the strong wind from blowing too hard and kill the wormwood.

At the same time, because Fengzhou, Lingzhou and other places have introduced a kind of "Tianzhu millet". Because this millet is too tall, it is easy to "lost" in windy days, which forces villagers in the Hetao area to continue planting trees.

The long wasteland is about to cultivate, but the manpower is insufficient, and filling it in the existing farming areas is already in a desire but not enough. It is basically a delusion to open up more fields.

The original nomadic and grazing was because the imperial court strictly divided the pastures in order to facilitate the management of various tribes, and the large number of green material towers were built. Basically, the larger settlements would not expand the population.

The typical example established is the Huxue tribe, which is now Xuezhou.

The main revenue of the entire Huxue tribe currently relies on export labor, wool, leather, alkaline noodles, air-dried meat products, and dry milk products.

Nomadic, and it is based on family, and there is no one.

There are many reasons. First, the court explicitly prohibits slavery. The traditional nomadic group on the grassland, and the real nomadic group is actually the pastoral slaves. Now it explicitly prohibits slavery. Unless the Huxue tribe surrenders and rebels again, such activities cannot be carried out at all.

The second is a small settlement with one or several accounts, with extremely poor risk resistance. Whether it is a epidemic in summer or a snow disaster in winter, if you leave the organization, you will die and run north of Kingsoft. Unless you live like a savage, you will either be bitten to death by mosquitoes or buried in heavy snow, and there is absolutely no other way out.

Third, in order to digest the "Kunlun Sea" and the Hezhong area, the imperial court implemented a long-term policy of grassland retrieval and immigration. The subsidies brought by this policy are an important income component of the leaders of each tribe, and can also alleviate the pressure of resource allocation within the tribe.

In fact, since the Yi Nan was killed, the entire plateau area has been in a state of dynamic resource balance for a long time. After entering the Tang Dynasty system, a large number of tribal leaders, due to the close connection of economic activities and the large number of personnel exchanges, they quickly and efficiently transformed from an ordinary tribal chief to a bureaucrat who is not very qualified but must be competent.

To be the chief of a clan, you must consider everything. You must think about whether the aquatic plants are fat this year, whether the cattle and sheep are strong this year, and even whether to promote a few herd slaves to become tribe members. You must think well and not make mistakes.

Even if you compete with other tribes, you still have to think about whether to surrender or run away after failure.

But after he transformed into a bureaucrat, such as the patriarch of the Huxue tribe and became the governor of Xuezhou, he had to do two things every time he suffered a disaster.

1. Ask Shangguan or the boss for help.

2. Stand on time.

As for condolences to the victims, if it were the Huxue tribe period, as the patriarch, he would definitely have to do it. But Xue Buqi is now the governor of Xuezhou, so it is not his turn to do this work. There are angels who come to condolence, and he just needs to be responsible for shouting "Thank you for your hard work".

Most of the time, Xue Buqi and governor Xue were paddling when he went to work. Although Xuezhou was dilapidated and vulgar, he still had office spaces and used a lot of cement.

The originally built Guijiang City, the Suijiang City no longer has military significance, gradually became two animal husbandry centers in Xuezhou. Among them, Guijiang City mainly engages in slaughtering and tanning, and the main function of the Suijiang City is to sort feed.

As for the Xuezhou capital, it moved to the vicinity of Langshan, and the imperial court specially named it Langshan County.

Although Langshan County is small, the urban population is even larger than that of ordinary Central Plains County. According to the traditional calculation of the Central Plains, there are almost more than 2,400 households.

A lot of them are the Huns' remnants, namely the Huyan tribe.

However, the main job of the Huns living in Langshan County was to farm. "Tianzhu Mian" was first brought from Tianzhu through trade by Huyan's tribe.

Xue Buqi, the governor of Xuezhou, learned that the son of Shi Dana, the former General of the Right Martial Guard, had actually gotten the alkaline outing in Fengzhou, and became energetic.

Originally, when Jingzhao Wei secretly controlled Fengzhou, this alkaline outing, Xue Buqi had no chance to deal with the alkaline outing.

He could neither be a middleman nor an underwriter, or even a buyer... Jingzhao Weishi did not intend to sell him.

The reason is very simple. In the Kinki and Guanzhong areas of Zhili, Jingzhao Weishi itself has a large number of self-selling markets. The alkaline noodle made every year is not enough for the alkaline noodle, so how can it be sold to Xue Buqi?

With the further upgrading of the noodle grinding technology and the further increase of the wheat planting area, anyone who has a wealth of money is willing to eat pasta with a better taste.

Changes in dietary habits further promote the cultivation scale of wormwood and the yield of alkaline surfaces.

But Xue Buqi has little to do with this. He also planted wormwood in several wastelands near Langshan. The sales are mainly scattered orders, but instead he makes more profits on the Silk Road.

For Xue Buqi, why should he be able to make money from Fengzhou, which is close to him?

The most important thing is that managing alkaline noodle market mainly relies on manpower, and a large alkaline noodle market has a very abundant labor force, which leads to a high daily food consumption.

Xue Buqi wanted to export labor to various alkaline noodle shops in Fengzhou, and also wanted to sell the grain.

In the Hetao area, Xue Buqi might have no choice but to do anything, but now he is really a big grain owner.

The reason lies in the "Zhizhu millet" grown by the Huns.

A farmer in Dahe Workshop took "Tianzhu Mian" as a specimen and sent it to Wuhan.

After Lao Zhang saw the "Tianzhu Mian", he realized that this thing was sorghum. Since his illegal travel, Lao Zhang has never seen sorghum that can't be eaten as food. He has seen many sorghum.

Originally, Lao Zhang was thinking that the Ji of the country was sorghum, but after going to Chang'an, he realized that Ji was a mug, which was non-sticky yellow rice. After meeting Cao Xian in Wuhan, Mr. Cao told him that Mighum could still be written.

This is very vivid.

Later, when I imported "Kavaha", that is, coffee, I brought in five kinds of sorghum species. In addition to the three kinds of sorghum species produced in India, there were eight kinds of sorghum varieties in the Zhenguan Dynasty.

Perhaps it was a mistake. Anyway, although the sorghum grown by the Xiongnu people in Xuezhou did not produce a stone per mu, the survival rate of wide planting and thin harvesting was quite considerable, which made Xuezhou have a lot of surplus grain in addition to paying taxes every year.

These surplus grains are both for humans and animals, and are for food for people and serve as feed. This is also the reason why the slaughtering industry can occur in Guijiangcheng, because the total amount of cattle and sheep slaughtered every year exceeds 15,000.

But even so, if you earn a little money every year, you will spend all your money to buy some property in the two capitals. With the relationship between people and support a bunch of elders and nobles in the early clan, Xue Buqi lived a happy life, but he still had to think about how to open up a path of wealth.

In the past, when facing Jingzhao Weishi, there was definitely no need to put too much fart.

It's very different now. Who is Shi Renbiao? He is his own. Because he called Princess Anping to call him aunt, and he has a daughter. I heard that at a banquet, he recognized Zhang Cang and Zhang Dalang of Xijing as his godfather.

Who is Zhang Cang and Zhang Dalang? The son of Zhang De, a man from Liangfeng County, is still the eldest son.

Who is Zhang De?

In the eyes of Xue Buqi, the governor of Xuezhou, this is his closest brother.

These are not your own people, what are your own people?

It is fate to be able to connect with each other!

Shi Renbiao, who is stupid and cute in Luoyang every day, wondered when he received a visit, Xue Buqi? Who is this? Who is this?

When my aunt, Princess Anping asked, I realized that, wow... Isn't this my little uncle in the Xue family? I haven't contacted me for so many years and I almost forgot.

Then he asked the fellow villager from Xuezhou, and said, what is my uncle in the Xue family doing?

My fellow villager said, we have grown a lot of food in our area, thinking about my husband, your unit, why don’t you leave us when you can purchase the canteen in the future?

Duke Dou was angry at that time and slapped the table and shouted: "If you want to ask about this kind of thing, just pull the food over?"
