Datang Lingnan King

Chapter 70
After sending the two away, Feng Daiwen sat there drinking tea, and the Kung Fu guard came to report for a cup of tea, and the one who had just left came back.

"Please come in," Feng Daiwen said with a slight smile:

"Brother Wang, please sit down." Feng Daiwen greeted Wang Yan when he came in:
"Master Hou knows that I'm coming back?" Seeing that Feng Daiwen was still in the hall, Wang Yan didn't even take away their tea just now.Asked suspiciously:

"I didn't know you were coming back. I just wanted to wait to see if there were any smart people. You are welcome, Brother Wang. You can call me Devon, anyone in Weiguo is fine."Feng Daiwen smiled and said:
"Then I will not be polite. I came back to ask Wei Guo to give me advice." Wang Yan smiled wryly: After all, other people don't know how powerful Feng Daiwen is, and they all think that Li Shimin bestowed the marriage for Feng An's sake. Wang Yan Gui is very clear, after all, Wang Gui has been involved in many things, knowing that Feng Daiwen lived and died with Li Shimin.I also know that Feng Daiwen proposed to sort out ancient books, and Shuofang traded with each other, but the five surnames and Qiwang also had fights. Only the core of the Wang family knew about these, and Wang Yan happened to be one of them.

"Haha, Brother Wang is being polite. It's not about giving advice, but about suggestions," Feng Daiwen said with a smile:
"Weiguo, please make it clear that the family has already had a meeting when you come here, and a certain person has full power to make the decision." Wang Yan said seriously:
"Well, let me make a suggestion. The territory of the Tang Dynasty will be very large in the future, so I hope that the major families will move to the frontier. Of course, not every family will have the opportunity to move out. The treatment for early relocation and late relocation will definitely be different. Seeing that Wang Yan was so serious, Feng Daiwen sat upright and introduced:

"What's the benefit if our Wang family moves to Shuofang?" Wang Yan asked:
"First of all, your existing land in Taiyuan will be replaced by Shuofang first-class land. Second, your current coal mines in Taiyuan are still managed by you. The government is only responsible for purchasing and supervising. Thirdly, Shuofang is a good place to produce cotton and seeds. It will be given priority to you. The fourth Shuofang government affairs can arrange 10 people from your royal family, including the governor of Shuofang. You can choose positions, but you must be capable. It is a trivial matter for those who are incompetent. It is not good to lose face. All your land in Fifth Shuofang is exempt from tax for five years, but it must be developed within two years, and if it is not developed, the government has the right to take it back," Feng Daiwen introduced to Wang Yan:

After all, as long as the military power is in hand, it doesn't matter if the government affairs are handed over. If you do well, you can do it.Feng Daiwen was not worried about this, because Shuofang lacked many civil servants.

Wang Yan thought about it slowly for half an hour, Feng Daiwen was not in a hurry, he just sat there drinking tea,
Wang Yan let out a long breath, opened his eyes wide and looked at Feng Daiwen and said, "Master Hou, the Wang family can agree, but Lord Hou still has to find a way to make money for the Wang family. After all, the Wang family has to take a lot of risks, and the Turkic people may go south at any time."

"Okay, happy, I will give the Wang family a good way of making money. The most valuable thing in the grassland is sheep, and the least valuable thing is wool and goat milk. I have a way to make milk powder from goat milk. I can teach you, wool , milk powder, as much as we have. As for the Turkic people you mentioned, they are not terrible. Now Jieli Khan and Turkhan Khan are fighting for territory. When they decide the winner, I think Turkic It's not posing a threat to Datang, and you don't think that Datang will ignore Turks." Feng Daiwen patted his thigh and said happily:

In the previous life, when Feng Daiwen was a child, his mother used to make sweet potato powder, which is also the rice flour for cooking. But at that time, it was not for cooking, but for his younger sister, because her younger sister didn’t have enough milk, and the family didn’t have money to buy milk powder. It is said that there was no milk powder sold in the town at that time, so I could only make it myself. First, grind the sweet potatoes into a slurry, boil it, put it in well water to cool down, and there will be a thick layer of paste on the surface. Take it out and dry it. The powder is strong, and it is almost the same as milk powder after frying. Feng Daiwen has done experiments, and the same milk powder can be obtained with cow's milk and goat milk.

Milk powder has many functions. It can be given to children, it can also be used as military rations, it can replenish physical strength, and it can also be used as a drink.

"Bang, Lord Hou, this is true." Wang Yan was so surprised that he dropped the teacup in his hand on the ground. After all, goat milk is unknown, but wool is worthless, and a lot of it has to be burned every year on the grassland.

"Of course it's true, two cents per catty, as much as you want, milk powder at ten cents per catty, as much as you want," Feng Daiwen said:
Feng Daiwen asked the craftsmen when he was making cotton quilts. The reason why wool is useless now is because wool is difficult to sort out. It is all lumps, and there are many oil stains that cannot be washed off. The reason why blankets are expensive is because they are all carefully selected.
"Okay, okay, I'm going back to Taiyuan right now, it's not right, I'll go back after the transaction,,," Wang Yan stood up excitedly, wanted to go back immediately, but stopped when he felt it was inappropriate.

"Brother Wang, don't be impatient. There will be a mutual market soon, and the grassland tribes will come over. You can negotiate with them right here. However, these two things cannot be traded with the big Turkic tribes now," Feng Daiwen said:
"It's easy to say, easy to say, after the prairie tribes come, I will make a statistics, and I will list the tribes traded and show them to Lord Hou first." Wang Yan said:
"Thank you so much, Brother Wang. I will tell the saint what happened today. I think the saint will not treat the Wang family badly," Feng Daiwen said:
"Haha, thank you Weiguo, thank you so much," Wang Yan relaxed and sincerely thanked Feng Daiwen after the business was settled. After all, five thousand family members died in the Xuanwu Sect of the Wang family, and a lot of property was paid behind, although it was hundreds of years of accumulation. But it can still be said that it is hurting, and it is not as good as before, so the backup Patriarch came here in person this time.

"Brother Wang, you don't need to see outsiders. Your Wang family's efforts will definitely pay off. If you wait until the Tang Dynasty pacifies the grasslands and want to move, there are such good things there. I can guarantee you that the Wang family will never regret today's choice in the future." Feng Daiwen smiled. said:

Wang Yan had no choice but to smile wryly: "I hope so. My Wang family has no choice but to make such a risky move. I don't know how many people are waiting to see the joke now."

"Haha, don't worry, Brother Wang, if you don't make money, I will compensate you for the loss. Those short-sighted people, let alone talk about it, even if they want to move in the future, they won't be treated like the Wang family. It will be a matter of time before the Wang family surpasses the other families." Feng Daiwen laughed and comforted Wang Yan and said:
"Since the decision has been made, the Wang family will not regret it, and I will ask Wei Guo to take care of it in the future." Wang Yan is also a decisive person, otherwise he would not become a candidate for the family head, and he said resolutely:
"It's easy to say, as long as the Wang family operates legally, I will support it with all my strength, but brother Wang, remember that saints are the most taboo of both ends." Feng Daiwen also reminded the Wang family.

"Haha, don't worry, Wei Guo, and please tell the sage, since the Wang family has made a choice, they will not regret it," Wang Yan laughed loudly:

"Sure, sure, it's getting late, Brother Wang, I'll take care of you, take care of you," Feng Daiwen said:
"Thank you, thank you," Wang Yan said with a smile on seeing Feng Daiwen being so polite:,,,,,
