Farmer of Shu Han

Although Ma Dai's mopping up of the Hu people on the border this time caused a certain amount of panic to the Hu people in Yinping around Hanzhong and near the border of the Han Dynasty, it was only in a small area.

Moreover, this panic gradually dissipated as Ma Dai returned to Yang'an Pass.

For those Hu people who are a little farther away, it has no effect at all.

This kind of numbness and forgetfulness is determined by the situation of the Hu people in the Han Dynasty.

For example, the Qiangdi in the two prefectures of Yongliang and Liangzhou, even if they were conscripted by the government as soldiers, paid taxes, or were plundered and reduced to slaves or tenants, or even had their heads taken by the border generals to receive meritorious service.

But they are still pouring in there wave after wave. There is no way, even if they don't enter these two states, life may be more difficult.

The Qiangdi old people who have survived for decades, although they don't understand what is called the ice age, but they still vaguely feel that winter in every place, no matter in the vast sea and desert, or in the north of Liangzhou, It seems to be colder than what I remember, and spring comes later.

For nomads, the cruelest thing is not war or other man-made things, but the coldness of winter.

A little colder, for them, is how many more people will die, the life and death of froze cattle and sheep.

Not to mention that it is getting colder every year. If you don't go south, should you go north?

They are not small people, they can grit their teeth and live in the northern desert.

Just like the Xianbei people who came out of the Great Xianbei Mountain, didn't they also leave their ancestral land of the Great Xianbei Mountain these years, and gradually gathered to the south to graze?

Under such unavoidable circumstances, Ma Dai was at best a slap in the face, while Feng Yong consciously stood up and gave him a sweet date.

Besides, when wool was first used for weaving, the technology of washing wool was not yet mature, and those bearded women who had just learned spinning and weaving were not skilled enough, so for a period of time, all the cloth produced It is an immature semi-finished product.

Later, when it was split 50-50 with Hanzhong Mansion, Feng Yong couldn't fool Zhuge Qiao with some defective products, so he kept the worst batch in his own hands.

Although the color is ugly and the line is poor, it is always something that can keep warm.

In the end, only a small part was given as a reward to the workers of the pastures and textile workshops, but most of Feng Yong's men were prisoners of war slaves, so naturally they were not eligible to enjoy this, otherwise how could they show the superiority of others?

Therefore, Feng Tubie felt that since it cannot be digested by domestic demand, it should be sold abroad.

Anyway, he is the only one who has wool cloth in the world. What kind of product do you care?

And which winter did the Hu people not freeze to death?

No matter how rotten a product is in Feng Yong's eyes, it is also a treasure in the eyes of Hu people.

Just like the toothpaste factory that is famous for squeezing toothpaste in later generations, from "i3 silent second full" to "i5 silent second full", and finally to "i7 awesome without explanation", in fact, the performance improvement of each generation is the same. A little bit, but the price is extremely expensive.

But even so, friends all over the world, don’t you still have to pay for it with tears in your eyes while scolding the agricultural enterprises for their failure?

Why?

The reason is that I am exclusive, do you like to buy it or not?

Feng Yong also wanted to learn to do this.

The first product, of course, is the most primitive, otherwise how to squeeze toothpaste?

As for when to launch new products, it depends on when these worst woolen cloths are sold.

If the product cannot be sold, where will the funds come to pay wages? Where does the funding for technological innovation come from?

I am a conscientious person. The labor in the workshop must be well-fed and well-clothed. Which one does not require money and food?

The market in Ju County opens three days before every ten days. This is the rule that Zhuge Qiao first agreed with the Hu people. After all, it is not every day that people come to exchange.

Gathering everyone at the same time can save a lot of time and energy, and make it easier for the barbarians to rush over in time.

So far, the rules are pretty good.

The biggest event in Ju County every month is the opening of the market.

There is a large open space outside the city, and every time the market opens, there will always be a lot of tents set up around the open space.

This time the protagonist of the market opening was Feng Yong, and the cart that had been tightly wrapped up in the open space was lifted at this time, revealing the cloth inside.

"The best cloth," Feng Yong took off his outer clothes, revealing the narrow sleeves of his trousers.

If you tie your hair into a ponytail, it will be the image of a bohemian artist in later generations.

Anyway, this place is far away from Jincheng, so you can come here in whatever way you are comfortable, and you are not afraid of someone scolding him.

When Zhao Guang saw Feng Yong's outfit at the beginning, he thought it was fresh and learned to wear it once, but unexpectedly he couldn't take it off again.

Without him, it is comfortable and easy to move around. Wearing a skirt, it is always cool underneath.

In the end, under Feng Yong's leadership, even Guan Ji was put on, because it was convenient for practicing martial arts.

Coming from Nanxiang this time, the journey is not too short, and this attire is the most convenient.

I saw Feng Yong patted the goods on the car, and said, "It's very thick. It's very warm to wear this cloth blanket in winter. If you want to trade, you can come and have a look."

On the top of the car, there are several pieces of cloth of moderate size, which are used as samples.

This time, there were about seven or eight Hu tribes who came to the exchange market. Only the leader and his cronies could enter the open space, and everyone else could only stand and watch from afar.

The tribes of the Hu people are also divided into three, six, and nine grades. The larger the tribe, the greater the right to speak, so the leader of the largest tribe came over first, saluted Feng Yong, then picked up a piece of cloth and walked to the side, carefully Rub it, and then pass it on to your cronies.

Then the remaining leaders came over one by one, and each got a piece of cloth, and then went back to observe among his cronies, and then talked in a low voice.

"My lord, what is the price of this cloth?"

The leader of the largest tribe was elected as a representative and asked Feng Yong.

"Two sheep for one piece of cloth, or three pieces of cloth for one strong ox, only war horses for horses, and six pieces of cloth for one horse. See, one bundle of cloth is one."

These days, merchants are cheap.

But Feng Yong was different. He came here this time with the intention of appeasing the Hu people, and it was a political mission.

This price is a huge profit, but when Li Yi discussed with Feng Yong, he felt that it could be more profitable.

It's a pity that a deal that involves political tasks is destined to give political concessions.

Fortunately, it was a piece of rubbish wool, so Feng Yong didn't feel bad about it.

"My lord, may I have a discussion with you?"

"Can."

Feng Yong nodded, "If you think it's too expensive, you can also exchange alfalfa seeds. I need alfalfa seeds, a lot of alfalfa seeds, and a bucket of alfalfa seeds can be exchanged for a piece of cloth. But only this month, as long as it is alfalfa Seeds, after this month, I will not harvest them."

The queen promised Hanzhong Metallurgical Corporation to allocate 20,000 mu to help Feng Yong grow alfalfa, but in fact, Feng Yong only has 2,000 mu of seeds in his hand, which is too little.

However, this shortage is only in the first half of the year. In the fall of this year, he can harvest alfalfa seeds himself.

However, if not enough alfalfa is planted, the output of green fodder will be affected, and the yield of green fodder is the main factor that directly restricts the expansion of pastures.

Therefore, the reason why Zhao Guang and Wang Xun were able to send Hu prisoners of war to Nanxiang without any scruples when they went out this time was actually the reason for exchanging cattle and sheep.

Otherwise, what else can I do? If the flock of cattle and sheep expands too much at once and the grass is not enough to eat, can the sheep be slaughtered for meat? If that's the case, it's better to change the population.
