If I really want to say that Jia Xu's project management and personnel management are really good, but this good quality does not solve the problem. Chen Xi's initial goal is to reach one-fifth of the output level of future generations. After all, Chen Xi's ranch is
It's really huge.
Even though there is a considerable gap between pastures and improved varieties compared with later generations, Chen Xi can really use millions of square kilometers of grassland for pasture.
This extravagant style, which goes so far as to use half of the Eurasian grassland to plunder, with proper management, the output should theoretically reach the level of one-third to one-fifth of the livestock industry in Inner and Inner Mongolia.
Achieving a level of 70%.
After all, in terms of the core territory investment, Chen Xi’s investment was far greater than the total investment in Inner and Outer Mongolia in later generations. Although this investment is equivalent to zero from a certain perspective, this zero investment is still based on the most important aspects of the Eurasian plate.
The top hegemonic force.
This kind of investment is the real substantive investment. Without the power of crossing things, how can we make all the cattle and horses eating grass in this place understand that this is the territory of the Han Dynasty?
However, as of now, let alone one-fifth, the Han Dynasty has not even achieved one-tenth. Even according to the average level of animal husbandry in Mongolia, the Han Dynasty has not even achieved one-forty. After all, the Han Dynasty has not achieved even one-tenth.
Mongolia has reached the level of 20 sheep per capita.
The current level of the Han Dynasty is only 0.3 to 0.4 per capita, so it is no joke that there is a long way to go. We must first find a way to increase the number of animal husbandry to 20 million.
This is why Chen Xi can calmly look at the slow movement of tens of thousands, or even close to one hundred thousand sheep, because it is really not enough to see.
The territorial cost invested by later generations was not even one-fifth of the investment by the Han Dynasty. As a result, the total cost of Inner Mongolia and Inner Mongolia even reached or even exceeded 200 million. This was not just sheep, but there were also many large livestock such as cattle and horses.
Now Chen Xi doesn't dare to mention that there are more than one million cows, horses and camels, so he just wants a sheep to have 20 million. At least the data seems to be very bluffing.
But this is what it means for Chen Xi. For others, just seeing this scene is a very strong mental impact.
"This is really shocking. Just seeing these, I can feel your strong financial resources." Bai Qi looked at the large area of cattle and sheep running in the distance. Even though he had seen Chen Xi's endless money offensive, but
Such piles of supplies are even more terrifying.
After all, having money doesn't mean you can purchase supplies, but for a guy like Chen Xi who has both money and a huge amount of supplies, even the God of War can't help but sigh.
"There are so many sheep. Why do some of the sheep look so strange?" Si Niang smacked her lips twice. In her eyes, this was all fresh mutton, and she felt very fat just by looking at it.
"Those are the moflon sheep I got from Rome. After all, the sheep here don't produce enough wool. The moflon sheep from Rome produce very good wool. Those sheep look very round.
Because they have a ring of wool, this is a continuous output." Chen Xi said with a smile.
There are many strange products in that place in the Mediterranean. Rome's success as an emperor has a lot to do with the natural environment. Of course, the Romans could not take full advantage of these natural resources, so Chen Xi helped the Romans take advantage of them.
.
Naturally, the Romans had no special feelings about Chen Xi's proposal to introduce an improved breed of Moflon sheep. Anyway, as long as Chen Xi was willing to pay, the Romans would not care at all. Anyway, the technology of wool spinning is currently really available.
The only one on the countertop is the Han Dynasty room.
There is currently no degreasing technology in other areas, and without this item, wool spinning cannot be brought to the forefront. Therefore, the Romans did not have the idea of engaging in this, and sold a group of excellent breeding sheep to the Han Dynasty for money.
Goods, very happy.
"Look, even sheep can be squeezed out of several processes." Jian Yong laughed and cursed. They really admired Chen Xi's ability to make money.
"What do you mean by squeezing out several processes? This is obviously to add added value to the industry." Chen Xi replied with a smile, "But the meat of this sheep is not as good as our local sheep, but you don't need to pay attention to this when it is chopped into pieces and made into pies.
"
"It looks so fresh." Si Niang looked at the large flock of sheep in the distance and was quite excited.
"Let's go and take a look first. Captain Jiang is here to pick us up." Liu Bei said with a smile as he looked at Jiang Gong who was riding a pied horse in the distance, wearing a single shirt, and leading a group of people.
"I have met Her Royal Highness the Princess, Her Royal Highness Concubine Xian, Taiwei Liu, Chen Pushe, Shangshu Jian, and General Xu." After Jiang Gong rode his horse over, he dismounted and bowed to the group of people.
"No courtesy." Liu Tong nodded to Jiang Gong calmly.
"Everyone, please follow me to my residence more than ten miles north. The current large ranch has just been moved here, and there are still a lot of gaps. Please forgive me." Jiang Gong saluted several people again, and the soldiers who followed him also
They all bowed.
After all, these soldiers only now know who Jiang Gong, as the captain of the Northland, personally came to greet.
Liu Tong nodded reservedly and got into the car. He had no choice but to remain elegant in front of others. After all, he could not destroy the majestic image of the royal family in the minds of the lower class people and herdsmen.
After Liu Tong got on the bus, the matter was completely handed over to Liu Bei, and Jiang Gong was an old man who followed Liu Bei during the Qingzhou years, so he knew it well.
So after a group of people boarded the car, under the guidance of Jiang Gong, they headed to the residences of the northern ranches. These residences were permanent buildings in the true sense. Some people were left to guard them every winter, but not many people remained.
Not many. In the summer, people from the south will return here to settle, and then leave again in autumn.
In the past, the cost of living and construction would have been beyond the reach of ordinary herders, but now, the work of staying in northern Xinjiang during the winter is not too difficult.
After all, the work left behind is basically equivalent to staying in the winter. The group of people left to guard the northern residence do not need to do anything at all. Food and grass supplies have been taken care of while the large troops are still grazing here. All they need to endure is the winter.
It's just loneliness when there's no one around.
However, this kind of thing is nothing to be afraid of for the Hu people, who are the difference between life and death in a heavy snowfall. Double-layer walls, underground passages, and enough supplies and food are actually a problem for those who like to stay at home without moving.
A very happy thing.
"There are really a lot of cattle and sheep here." Bai Qi looked at the sheep and cattle that became larger and denser as his carriage went deeper into the pasture, with a rare expression of surprise.
"These are the largest pastures in northern Xinjiang, and they have not been split or reorganized. I remember that the scale reported before was supposed to be one million sheep." Chen Xi thought for a while and said, "It's a good thing that they are cutting grass to raise cattle and sheep, otherwise
I really can’t afford it.”
"It's millions, but it's just the largest ones." Bai Qi is a bit complicated. This kind of logistical ability really makes Bai Qi a little confused how to describe it.
"There is still a long way to go to solve the problem." Chen Xi shook his head and said, "After all, the Beijiang Ranch is positioned as the largest meat producing area in the north. However, although it has already achieved the reality of being the largest meat producing area,
But the output is not enough."
"The largest meat producing area in the north?" Bai Qi felt that he had caught something strange. The entire northern Xinjiang ranch was called the largest meat producing area in the north. So, in turn, he thought about whether there was a meat producing area in the south.
, and other meat producing areas in the north.
"Yes, it is the largest in the north." Chen Xi seemed to understand Bai Qi's doubts, "Actually, there are some other meat producing areas in the north. After all, in addition to meat, there are also eggs. Although I have
I gave up chickens and ducks and focused on geese.”
Chen Xi finally gave up raising chickens and ducks. Although relying on the technical experience accumulated over the years, his ability to prevent and control diseases when raising chickens and ducks was already very strong, when he actually took over the Central Plains, Chen Xi gave up the chicken business after careful consideration.
ducks, and began to engage in goose breeding.
It is really because geese are easy to raise, not easy to get sick, have a wide diet, and have a larger living space. In addition, salted goose eggs produce more oil and the quality is easier to control. In the end, Chen Xi gave up chicken and duck breeding, so he used to raise
The places used for chickens and ducks are now used for raising geese.
As a result, the second largest meat supply in the north is naturally geese.
"As for the south, it should not be said to be the south, but the eastern coast. Fishing is currently the largest component of the Central Plains' meat industry." Chen Xi said helplessly. There is really no way. Fishing is a business without capital, and in this era,
The ocean does not yet have the so-called overfishing problem, so Chen Xi uses the sixth-generation ship as a fishing boat.
It can be said that this industry is currently the largest meat supply industry in the Central Plains. It is also one of the few industries in Chen Xi's hands that generates great income, and it is the kind of large-scale industry that can drive many other nearby industries. As for the only thing that needs investment is the warship
.
Salted fish, dried fish, and newly developed canned fish are very popular meats at present. After all, so many chefs use research methods to create various classic flavors, coupled with precise quality control far beyond this era, it is impossible to
The profit from this transaction is really terrible.
However, whether it is in the north or on the eastern coast, these outputs are inevitably limited by logistics and transportation capabilities. This is why Chen Xi must bring Jian Yong over. It is impossible not to engage in logistics and transportation, and it must be done at a loss.
.
"I see." Bai Qi pondered for a while and nodded. He had a deeper understanding of Chen Xi's logistics capabilities. Although he knew about it before, this kind of knowledge is still very different from seeing it with his own eyes now.
