Datang: Time travel in two months, wait online, hurry up!

Therefore, the root of wealth is the adequacy of materials.

For example, a country has 1 taels of gold, but no supplies.

A country has 20 catties of pork, 10 bolts of cloth, 10 catties of chicken, duck and fish, and 5 eggs.

Which of these two countries is richer?

Therefore, if the Ministry of Households wants to become rich, Datang wants to become rich.

It's not about how much gold to earn, but to find a way to produce more materials!

Only when the material is sufficient, is it really rich.

Otherwise, once supplies are tight, prices will inevitably skyrocket.

Soaring prices bring depreciation of money.

In the past, one penny could buy more than two catties of rice, but when there was not enough rice, one penny might not be able to buy even one catty.

At this time, the value of money is very low.

However, if the amount of rice is too much, it is too much to eat.

Then maybe you can buy three catties, four catties, or even five catties of rice for one penny.

And at this time, the value of money is high.

Therefore, Li Ke's suggestion to the household department is to use advanced technology to breed and plant on a large scale!

Raise poultry, such as pigs, chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep, etc.

Pigs can sell pork, lard, etc.

Chickens and ducks can lay eggs, which has greatly improved Datang's egg production.

Cows and sheep can produce milk, which greatly increased Datang's milk production.

Grow crops like cotton, canola, fruit trees and more.

Cotton can be used to weave cotton cloth, rapeseed can be pressed to produce rapeseed oil, and fruit trees can bear various fruits.

These can be collectively referred to as materials!

As long as more materials are produced, Datang will become richer.

This is why Li Ke brought high-yield rice and wheat seeds here.

How can we talk about being rich if we can’t even eat enough?

Only when the amount of rice and wheat harvested each year is too large to fit in the warehouse, is it called rich.

"You mean the government will run the farms and plantations?"

Tang Jian had a little brain, but he still didn't understand it very well.

"The government can do it, but the most important thing is for everyone to work together!"

"Ben Wang thinks that the Ministry of Household Affairs should do a good job in the inspection of the farms, the inspection of various materials, and the regulation of prices."

"The specific things of breeding and planting should be left to private businessmen."

What Li Ke meant was that the household department mainly plays the role of supervision and review.

For example, supervise whether the construction of the farm is in place, the sanitation situation, the disease situation and so on.

Otherwise, if the sanitation is not in place and those bad diseases occur, it will be a disaster.

As well as the supervision of the quality of materials for sale on the market, etc.

In addition, once the output of materials fluctuates up and down, prices must also be regulated.

As for the specific breeding and planting work, there will naturally be discerning businessmen who will do it.

"Your Highness, what you said makes sense, but is there really anyone willing to raise pigs?"

Tang Jian nodded, but then looked at Li Ke in embarrassment.

At this time, pigs did not actually have castration technology.

In other words, the current pigs are not castrated.

Pigs that have not been castrated have strong male hormones in their bodies, which will make the pig's meat very unpalatable!

Very bad taste!

And there is an unpleasant smell when eating.

Therefore, the upper class and many people in Datang are reluctant to eat pork.

Moreover, pigs that have not been castrated are vigorous and don't grow much meat.

"This king naturally has a way to solve the problem of unpalatable pork."

Li Ke smiled and said confidently.

Pork is basically the mainstream meat in modern times.

It is because the pigs are castrated, the androgen in the body is reduced, and the taste of the meat becomes better.

And because of castration, the pigs lose their desire, and they know how to eat and sleep every day, and eat when they sleep.

This way you can grow fat like crazy!

Therefore, it only needs to be castrated to increase the production of pig meat and improve the taste.

The only loss is that the pig loses the most important thing, but that doesn't matter!

"How to solve?"

Hearing this, Tang Jian looked at Li Ke in surprise.

We must know that pork is unpalatable, but it has been a big problem that has plagued us for many years.

As a prince, Li Ke basically doesn't come into contact with pork, let alone live pigs.

He really didn't expect that Li Ke would know how to solve this problem!

This really shocked him.

"Castration."

Li Ke smiled slightly and told Tang Jian how to solve it.

"Castration?"

Tang Jian was even more surprised.

What kind of solution is this?

In addition to the eunuchs who enter the palace must be castrated, pigs must also be castrated?

Will it be sent to the palace after castration?

Li Ke then explained to Tang Jian the importance of castration and the effects of castration.

Tang Jian's eyes widened after hearing this, obviously he didn't expect such a miraculous effect!

94 "Ben Wang has written a detailed book on poultry and aquaculture, as well as key points and precautions for planting various crops."

"The people in the household department should memorize this book by heart, and then train a group of technical instructors to go to various farms and planting areas to give technical guidance."

Li Ke took out a printed book.

This book is called "Cultivation and Planting Encyclopedia"!

It is the content of planting and breeding that Li Ke intercepted from "Friends of Military and Local Dual-Purpose Talents", a must-have book for travelers.

The content inside is very complete, including various poultry and aquatic farming techniques and precautions.

There are also various fruit trees, planting of crops and so on.

Including improved grafting techniques and more.

In the future, a batch of this book will be printed, and each farm and planting area must have a copy.

All operations and processes must be carried out in accordance with the above.

Only by using advanced technology, standardized management, and standard operation can the output be maximized!

Moreover, he will also take some to Yangzhou, and then print a large number of them to develop breeding and planting in Yangzhou.

Not only that, there will be processing of various products later, which he hasn't brought out yet.

He plans to run a few workshops by himself to specialize in food processing.

In this way, a complete industrial chain from planting and breeding to processing and finally to sales has been formed.

In the later stage, feed and fertilizer can be developed to further increase the production.

Under this positive cycle of development, Datang's productivity will become higher and higher, and Datang will become richer and richer!

"His Royal Highness King Wu is really all-rounder!"

Tang Jian took the book excitedly, and couldn't help but admire it from the bottom of his heart.

He was still worrying about how to make the household department richer, but Li Ke had already written a book in advance!

What's more, it's not just the three-acre land of the household department, Li Ke is facing the whole Tang Dynasty!

This book by Li Ke can make the entire Tang Dynasty rich!

"According to this book, within a few years, many people in our Tang Dynasty will be able to eat meat, eggs, and milk!"

If there is enough meat, egg and milk, then it is really rich!

Li Ke said to Tang Jian with longing in his eyes.

PS: Fifth more! .

Chapter 154 Title 'Wen Cheng'!See Queen Xiao?

As for the matter of the craftsman, he can go to Li Shimin and talk about it.

Li Shimin should not refuse.

After leaving the Ministry of Industry, Li Ke came to the Ministry of Households again.

After all, he was a consultant to the Ministry of Accounting before, but he didn't have time to give any advice to the Ministry of Accounting. Of course he had to leave something before leaving.

"His Royal Highness, before you go to Yangzhou, don't forget our household department!"

Tang Jian said to Li Ke very upset.

As an adviser to the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of War, Li Ke made explosives for the Ministry of War!

Now Hou Junji is extremely proud every day.

Every time no matter what others said to Hou Junji, Hou Junji would always reply: How do you know that my military department has explosives?

He doesn't know how other people feel, anyway, he is very angry!

How amazing is it to have a dynamite pack?

Originally, he thought that when Li Ke came to the Ministry of Accounts when he was free, he would definitely be able to bring something new to the Ministry of Accounts.

But who would have thought that Li Ke was going to Yangzhou soon!

How could he still sit still?

If Li Ke doesn't come to the Ministry of Household Affairs, he will go to Wu Wangfu to find Li Ke!

"Master Tang, this king is here!"

Hearing this, Li Ke smiled and said to Tang Jian.

"Does your Highness have any good suggestions?"

Tang Jian's eyes lit up when he heard Li Ke's words.

Li Ke has an idea!

"I do have a little suggestion, but I'm going to Yangzhou soon, and I'm no longer an advisor to the Ministry of Household Affairs, so let's not talk about it, lest someone say that I am acting as a substitute."

"After all, there are so many talented people in Hubu, so I better stop expressing my humble opinions."

However, Li Ke shook his head with an embarrassed tone.
