Destiny Only Han

"Your Majesty bears the destiny of the heavens and is favored by the heavens and the earth. It is a great fortune for Jiangshan!"

Flatterer... Liu Ying flattened her mouth invisibly: "Talk about the previous thing."

"The potassium fertilizer obtained from natural potash mines is a kind of salt, so it is not suitable for the land in the north, but in the south of the Huaihe River, this kind of potassium fertilizer is a natural benefit for the local soil."

"Without him, the vegetation in the south of the Yangtze River is lush, the rainfall is abundant, and the soil is generally acidic..."

"Well, do you understand acid and alkali?"

Liu Bang shook his head blankly.

The same is true of Cao Shen.

A sense of superiority, this is a sense of superiority... Liu Ying's face is as usual:
"It doesn't matter whether you understand it or not. The important thing is that the application of this natural potassium fertilizer to the soil there will increase the crop yield much better than that in the northern land, especially effectively suppressing flax leaf spot caused by potassium deficiency in rice in Lingnan... "

"Nowadays, with the development of the Jiangnan area, there are more and more farms and plantations. Every harvest of crops is equivalent to consuming a lot of nutrients in the soil."

"It's still the same sentence, the unique high temperature and rainy climate in the south of the Yangtze River has caused the farmland there to have a much higher demand for potassium fertilizer than the farmland in the north!"

"Therefore, the supplement of soil nutrients is imminent!"

Cao Shen wanted to flatter Liu Ying again, but in the end he remained silent under Liu Bang's sharp eyes.

Liu Ying went on to say: "The question about the use of potash fertilizers in the north."

"In the past, we were afraid of increasing soil salinization, but now we have mastered a new technology that can turn alkaline potassium fertilizers into acidic ones, completely solving the disadvantages of not being able to use potassium fertilizers in saline-alkali land in the north!"

"Well, of course, everything has advantages and disadvantages."

"If this kind of potassium fertilizer prepared with sulfuric acid is used in calcareous soil, it will cause the soil to compact and form many hard lumps. Therefore, it is necessary to control the amount of potassium fertilizer and increase the amount of farmyard manure..."

"New technology?" Liu Bang smelled the smell of alcohol on his body, and decided to go out to diffuse the smell, so as not to be annoyed by Lu Zhi, so he nodded secretly: "Have you opened a new factory yet? Take me around!"

Liu Ying looked disgusted: "No, it's such a hot day, and the factory smells bad..."

Liu Bang stood up and could not refuse: "Go, don't force Naigong to do it!"

....................................

Lantian Industrial Base, three-acid and two-alkali R&D Industrial Park.

After noon, the electric bell installed in the center of the industrial park suddenly rang, and the hungry workers rushed to the cafeteria as if they had heard the horn of charge.

After all, there are only so many good dishes, and if you go late, there will only be vegetable soup left...

Of course, the factory needs to operate 24 hours a day, so only a part of the workers go to eat, and the team takes turns eating and resting to ensure that the machines are always running in an orderly manner.

At the main entrance of the industrial park, three people, old, middle-aged and young, got off the carriage with only the sunshade.

This is exactly Cao Shen and Liu Ying who were dragged out to play by Liu Bang.

Because they just came out to play, neither the guards nor Liu Ying wore ordinary clothes, just like those engineers who came here to study and study, and businessmen to discuss cooperation, without attracting attention at all.

At this moment, under the confused faces of Liu Bang and Cao Shen, Liu Ying naturally took out a set of enamel tableware from the trunk of the carriage, and immediately walked towards the small cafeteria for management and engineers.

"Let's go, the sweet and sour pork ribs here are very good, if it's too late, there will be no more!"

"Let me tell you a secret, the dishes made in the big canteen are much more delicious than those made in the small stove!"

Cao Shen was stunned for a moment, and followed slowly.

Liu Bang turned over the carriage and found no extra tableware, so he snatched the enamel rice bowl from Liu Ying's hand, not paying attention to Liu Ying's panic.

........................

Small cafeteria.

Liu Bang lined up and asked with his head: "Why is it either fish or bones? Even the workers can't eat good meat. The workers don't even have meat, right?"

Liu Ying was stunned for a moment: "The meat on the bones is delicious! This is the privilege of the management and engineers!"

In Liu Bang's doubts, Liu Ying lowered her voice and said:

"These guys don't do any physical work, just gnaw some bones. The workers have to work hard, so what if they can't eat well? So when the canteen cuts the meat, the clean meat, mainly the big fat meat, is taken for big meat." The canteen was given to the workers, and the small canteen only had fish and ribs..."

Liu Bang also lowered his voice: "Then can these guys agree?"

Liu Ying pointed to the pot of sweet and sour spareribs made by Cun Pai in front: "Is the taste good enough? Dad, look at the thick oily red sauce. It's sugar and sesame seeds. These are things that workers can't eat!"

Liu Bang smiled: "This is the win-win situation you often say?"

Of course not, a double win means I win twice... Liu Ying followed closely in the team, although she nodded seriously, her mind was already on the braised carp and sweet and sour pork ribs.

"There is no palace for this rice... ours is delicious!" Liu Bang said with a look of embarrassment.

Cao Shen took a sip and said with certainty:
"This is rice from Lingnan. The yield is high, but the taste is slightly inferior, but it is better than being cheap... I heard that one stone of Guanzhong rice is equivalent to the price of two stones of Lingnan rice. If it is the rice of Liaodong or Liaonan , the price is even more than three times that of Lingnan rice!"

"The daily consumption in Taigong's house is the top-quality Liaodong rice, and the rice here is naturally far behind..."

Grandpa?Hey... Liu Ying sighed in her heart, but smiled on her face: "The factory takes care of the food and housing, the important thing is that it doesn't matter how big the appetite is for a strong man, as long as he is full, it doesn't matter if the rice is delicious or not!"

Liu Bang nodded: "That's true, but the sweet and sour pork ribs are indeed more delicious than those made in the palace... just thinking that there are people in the world who can't eat enough, I can't eat it..."

Don't be embarrassed, you can't eat because your teeth are bad... Liu Ying curled her lips: "Dad, how long has it been since you went to the country to play?"

Liu Bang frowned: "Huh?"

Liu Ying said with a smile:

"I don't know about other places, but the head of Guizhou, north of the Huaihe River, south of Yanshan Mountain, and Yinshan Mountain, has already solved the problem of food and clothing. Now it has basically changed from being full to eating well!"

"When I'm free in a while, I'll take Dad to those large pig farms in Guanzhong. Then you'll find that the feed for the pigs there is better than what you ate when you were a child!"

"Well, dad, don't be angry, I'm telling the truth! The feed for pigs is mainly cornmeal, bean paste, salt, and fishmeal ground from sun-dried miscellaneous fish. Which of these things was there decades ago? Even the poor can’t eat it openly?”

Liu Bang put down his raised slap and sighed softly: "What a crime..."

When Liu Taigong was alive, although Liu Bang despised the peasant family in various ways, he was very disapproving of the concept of the monarch and the people farming together, frugal and simple, but in fact it was mainly rebellious. As a person from the bottom, how could Liu Bang be a wasteful person? ?
Now that he heard that he was going to feed the pigs with such a good thing, it really made him a little bit unacceptable for a while.

But Liu Ying looked indifferent.

If the country he participated in establishing and governing can only feed the people of the country and have clothes to cover their bodies, then it would be better to simply destroy it!

His goal, of course, is to make everyone eat meat as food and drink milk as water!

For this reason, we must spare no effort to develop industry, increase food production, and deploy overseas!

For example, phosphate fertilizer, one of the three giants of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers.

Liu Ying clearly remembers that there is a small overseas island full of phosphate fertilizer mines made of bird droppings. Today, Han has taken root in Tiannan (Australia), and the phosphate there is naturally in Han's pocket. things!
So Liu Ying took two mouthfuls of food, then raised her head and asked, "Is the head of Guizhou counting people?"

Liu Bang froze for a moment: "Of course."

Liu Ying asked again: "Then why do rich and powerful families eat meat and drink extravagantly, daddy, you ignore it, but people here eat some meat, daddy, do you have such an expression?"

Liu Bang was silent for a while: "Naigong didn't mean that! I just think it's a waste to feed pigs with grain..."

Liu Ying shook her head:
"It's not a waste. There is too much food in China now, and because of foreign trade agreements, foreign food is being shipped back to China in a steady stream, which has led to a very low level of domestic food prices! "

"And Mi Jian will definitely hurt farmers!"

"So it's a very cost-effective thing to feed pigs and cows the cheap old grain that can't be eaten all the time!"

"Importantly, this will also increase farmers' income and improve their lives!"

Liu Bang tapped the table with his chopsticks: "Isn't it right, how much meat can the head of Guizhou eat all year round? Isn't this meat eaten by the rich and powerful in the end?"

Cao Shen really wanted to say something, but considering that the old man's nature became more and more exposed as he got older, he couldn't speak.

Liu Ying replied:

"Today is different from the past. Guishou in the industrial age is much richer than the Qianshou in the agricultural era, and how much meat can nobles eat? Even Wuyanghou, a well-known meat lover and rice bucket, can eat ten catties of meat at most for a meal. Two jugs of wine..."

"So the pork, beef and mutton sold in the market are basically eaten by ordinary people!"

Liu Bang nodded: "Your boy is right! Rice cheap hurts farmers, it is indeed a problem worthy of vigilance..."

Liu Ying snapped her fingers and said in a low voice, "I'm going to wait until Liu Yan is one year old and canonize the crown prince before promulgating a decree, which is to further reduce the land rent of the people all over the world, from [-] tax to [-] tax! "

Cao Shen was stunned for a moment and stopped talking. After all, according to the actual situation of the Han Dynasty today, the bulk of fiscal revenue has shifted from agricultural tax and poll tax to industrial and commercial tax, tariffs, and various mines and industries controlled by the state at home and abroad.

Such as railways.

Although the newly reorganized Royal Railway Administration had to pay Liu Ying the patent fee and hand over part of the money to the Shaofu as the emperor's private money, basically half of the income actually went into the national treasury!

Not much, it is estimated that there will be 20 billion yuan this year.

But the crux of the problem is that this money has just started to be handed over to the treasury this year, and it will increase every year with the length of the railway line!
Therefore, a few hundred million yuan less in agricultural taxes is nothing to the Han Kingdom today!
Rich so capricious!
Therefore, in Cao Shen's view, this money should be regarded as a blessing for the little prince...

But more importantly, the reduction and exemption of agricultural taxes will benefit those rich and powerful who own a lot of land!

After all, one percent of ten thousand is not the same as one percent of ten million...

Your Majesty is virtuous... Cao Shen praised him in his heart, and decided to let his family take the money to buy more land in Shangjun, Yunzhong County, Liaodong, Liaoxi and Jiangnan Lingnan before the decree was promulgated!

After all, the cost of farming is almost fixed, the less the tax, the more you can earn!

No one has a grudge against money!
Liu Ying had a panoramic view of all this, but also said nothing.

It’s different in the past.

In the past, the purpose of suppressing mergers in the Han Dynasty was to prevent refugees from spreading everywhere.

But the crux of the matter is that the reason for the displacement is because their land is gone and they don't have jobs to support their families.

Today's Han Kingdom has almost simultaneously loaded the three epic-level giant DLCs of the Age of Discovery, the Age of Geographical Discovery, and the Age of Industrialization...

The steam-rumbling factories are short of people, the overseas plantations are short of people, and the caravans that go back and forth are even more short of people!

Therefore, there is no possibility of refugees everywhere.

And this is just one of the reasons why Liu Ying reduced or exempted the land rent.

The real reason, of course, is to strive to build a global village and complete globalization as soon as possible...

Well, actually sucking blood through global trade...

With less land rent in the country, the cost of farming will be lower, and the price of food will naturally be lower, and it will be full of competitiveness in today's market!

Under the global trade network dominated by the Han State, a large grain producer such as Shendu has formed a path dependence on the Han State, and most of the grain he produces every year is sold to the Han State.

Then, when the price of domestic grain is the same as the price of imported grain to Hong Kong, the poisoned grain will not be easy to sell.

Take a chestnut.

For example, the cost price of domestic grain is [-] yuan a stone, and the cost price of poisoned grain is [-] yuan a stone.

At this time, Han Guo pointed out the fertilizer technology, and along with tax cuts, the cost was directly reduced to [-] yuan a stone.

In this case, for the grain merchants in Han, either you sell my grain for [-] yuan a stone, or I sell your grain for [-] yuan a stone!
Therefore, it seems reasonable that Han people want to eat well, but those who are poisoned will starve to death.

"I'm stuffed."

Liu Ying stood up and walked towards the distant dishwashing area with the dinner plate in her hand.

After all, his enamel tableware was snatched by someone, so he had to use this kind of common tableware.

Liu Bang also wiped his mouth, and followed Liu Ying slowly, carrying an enamel jar.

Well, he never does the dishes.

Therefore, it is self-evident who will wash the dishes...

Seeing the situation, Cao hurriedly ate the food on the plate. Unfortunately, he eats a lot of sugar these years and doesn't like to brush his teeth, which leads to bad teeth, so it is difficult to eat sweet and sour pork ribs. Slogans about wasting food.

Therefore, he didn't rush to the dishwashing area until Liu Ying finished washing the dishes and walked out.

But when Cao Shen returned the washed tableware and was about to catch up with Liu Ying, he was suddenly stopped by a cook carrying a big spoon.

"What? Want to leave without paying the bill?"
