ps: It was a mess after moving, but it¡¯s finally tidied up! He let out a long breath.
Zhao Hongyu and his father-in-law Hei Xiong walked into the manor villa. The servants continued to be busy after they left.
"When do you plan to get these grains?"
After sitting down in the luxurious living room, a black maid brought a cup of hot tea and placed it in front of Zhao Hongyu.
"About ten days. After all, there are still a lot of supplies that need to be prepared. The supplies for 50,000 people for the winter cannot be prepared so quickly."
Hearing this, Zhao Hongyu replied.
Black Bear nodded, he also understood that this matter cannot be rushed.
Fifty thousand immigrants are not a small number. When the Mohican tribe had a population of more than 12,000, it was not easy for the old leader to manage a tribe.
"So just now you told me that there is a deal you want to introduce to me. I want to know what kind of deal it is."
The two were discussing this topic before, but they were temporarily distracted.
Now, Black Bear has brought this topic back again.
"We need farm tools and some iron weapons, as well as a large number of horses and vehicles. This is a huge amount. Anyway, based on the premise that the fertilizer does not flow to other people's fields, I plan to give all these materials to you, father-in-law. Make preparations and the government will come forward to purchase it.¡±
Black Bear's heart moved after hearing Zhao Hongyu's words. He quickly calculated in his mind, and finally came to a conclusion that made him very excited.
¡°If you go by the immigration numbers Zhao Hongyu said and prepare the things he mentioned yourself, then the profits will be huge.
Then, Zhao Hongyu told Black Bear the prices of agricultural tools, iron weapons, horses and vehicles.
??And finally told him that at this price, Black Bear can let the tribesmen do it.
Zhao Hongyu doesn¡¯t care how much money Black Bear can make. Anyway, as long as it doesn't exceed the price he gave, it's fine.
At the same time, we must ensure quality and avoid defective products.
Black Bear slapped his chest loudly and promised that he would never use fake products to deal with Zhao Hongyu.
¡°However, he also told Zhao Hongyu that one of these supplies was more difficult to handle.
"Son-in-law, I can prepare most of the supplies you mentioned. I also know that you are giving me money to earn money. But there are some things I think it is best to tell you first, otherwise it will have a lot of impact on the immigration plan. It has a big impact.¡±
"Oh, what is it?" Zhao Hongyu couldn't help but become curious when he saw his father-in-law being so serious.
Black Bear said: "There is no problem with farm tools, iron weapons, and vehicles. My tribesmen have good blacksmithing and carpentry skills after studying at Lanxiang Technical School. However, horses are now a material restricted by the military. As a strategic reserve, all the horses sold every year by the horse herd under your name that I am responsible for are subscribed by the military."
Yes, the Song Empire lacked cavalry.
Fortunately, Zhao Hongyu purchased a lot of horses from the space-time trader and raised them in this world.
It can be said that his horses are on the American continent. That is unique.
And the formation of the empire¡¯s cavalry also relied on Zhao Hongyu Ming¡¯s horses.
Therefore, it is unrealistic for Zhao Hongyu to buy some horses and give them to the immigrants.
Now the cavalry regiments are still being formed. There is a big gap for horses.
¡°Therefore, it is impossible to have any spare horses for sale.
Even if there is one, it was already ordered by the military.
Of course, as Zhao Hongyu, he can intervene temporarily. The horse was taken away by force.
Since his identity is here, no one will say anything if he does this.
However, the impact is not very good.
and. The military department had already paid a deposit and reserved all the horses to be sold within ten years.
Therefore, Black Bear had to remind his son-in-law.
In the black bear¡¯s concept, there is no such thing as special privileges.
What Indians value is fairness and integrity.
Although Hei Xiong took care of the horses on behalf of Zhao Hongyu, it was Hei Xiong who collected the money on behalf of Zhao Hongyu.
Since it was already a promise, Black Bear felt that he had to do it according to the agreement.
"If he resells the horses ordered by the military to those immigrants, then wouldn't he become a bad general?"Is there someone from ???
¡°And if an Indian has no integrity, he will be despised by all Indians.
In the Indian world, he will no longer have a place.
At the same time, Black Bear is also the leader of the Mohicans and the father of Queen Emma.
If his reputation is damaged, it is definitely not his fault.
It will also affect your family.
Therefore, Hei Xiong opened his mouth to remind Zhao Hongyu that if necessary, he had decided to rebel against his son-in-law on the issue of horses.
After all, Black Bear takes the issue of integrity very seriously.
??Besides, as the leader of the Mohicans, if the news about his dishonesty spreads. Will people from other tribes integrate into the empire and become citizens of the Mohicans in the future?
The Indians despise the dishonest tribal leaders.
¡°Obviously, compared to the moral decline of China in later generations, the Indians of this era regarded integrity as important as life.
"Although the horses belong to you, I just keep them on your behalf. However, the money from the military department did pass through my hands and was stored in your cellar. Therefore, I need to make this clear. .¡±
The black bear¡¯s expression is extremely serious.
Hearing this, Zhao Hongyu thought, ¡®No, why did I forget this? ¡¯, this matter.
At the same time, Zhao Hongyu felt a little regretful.
Of course he knows that the Indians value integrity, and he will not blame the black bear for turning against him.
He just forgot about this matter, and he would never let his father-in-law be criticized because of this matter.
"Father-in-law, I'm so sorry, I forgot about this. It's really my fault, I didn't remember it, so the horses should be provided to the military as per the previous agreement."
Although Zhao Hongyu has a transcendent status, he will not use this status to do whatever he wants to highlight his power.
After seeing Zhao Hongyu being kind, listening to his opinions and giving explanations, Black Bear breathed a sigh of relief.
"My good son-in-law, you are right to think so." Black Bear smiled happily at Zhao Hongyu. But then he thought about it, fifty thousand people did need some animal power to do things, so the unruly son-in-law would make such a request.
Now we can no longer give horses, but we must solve this problem ourselves.
After thinking about it. Black Bear said to Zhao Hongyu: "We can't give horses, but we can give some cows. This year's herd has given birth to a lot of calves. Even if it supplies beef to Manhattan for a year, there are still a lot of cattle in the herd. Where is my son?"
Zhao Hongyu heard the sound of "oh" and woke up a little.
Yes, Zhao Hongyu thought about it after Black Bear reminded him.
??If horses can¡¯t move, cows can too.
Plowing the fields and pulling carts. Oxen are more useful than horses for working.
How could I have forgotten this matter?
Zhao Hongyu raised his hand and patted his forehead with some regret.
"Oh, why did I forget about this herd of cattle? Although horses are useful, cows are equally useful."
"Son-in-law, what you mean is that cows can also be used, right?"
Black Bear asked.
"Yes, of course, yes, yes." Zhao Hongyu said to the black bear.
Hearing this, Black Bear said: "In that case. I can provide 2,000 cattle to the immigrants. I don't know if that's possible."
2,000 cattle are still a little small for 50,000 immigrants. But you can also use one cattle for 25 people.
¡°Besides, this amount can be expanded by the end of next year.
In this way, wouldn¡¯t this problem be solved?
Thinking of this, Zhao Hongyu nodded happily.
"Okay, of course. If possible, provide some more sheep. These sheep can produce goat milk, which can be regarded as adding a kind of food to these immigrants."
In this way, with the conversation between Zhao Hongyu and Black Bear, the immigrants' food ration and animal power problems were solved.
On Manhattan Island, Black Bear grazes many types of cattle and sheep by himself or on Zhao Hongyu¡¯s behalf. There are several types of beef cattle, farm cattle and old scalpers, all of which Zhao Hongyu purchased from the space-time trader.
At the same time, Zhang Tie also purchases a lot every month,??Give the black bears grazing.
Even Song Hu, who is far away in Ontario City, has not taken the development of animal husbandry lightly.
After all, the meat obtained from grazing is easier and less dangerous than hunting.
Many French people in Quebec will go to Ontario or Manhattan to buy cattle, cattle, sheep, pigs and other animals to raise.
Now, the animal husbandry industry in the three regions has slowly begun to form a virtuous cycle.
Therefore, on the American continent, citizens of the empire no longer lack meat.
Even the Indians began to have less demand for meat, and instead began to favor a variety of fresh vegetables.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away from meat.
But things are different now. There are more and more types of food in the empire, so people have begun to eat more and more refined foods as they get older.
At the same time, genetic people of Chinese descent have also inherited a talent of the Chinese ethnic group, which is that they are very particular about eating.
Therefore, under the guidance and influence of the Chinese genetic people in the empire, citizens of other ethnic groups also began to learn the diet of the Chinese genetic people.
After all, the power of role models is infinite. Who makes the Chinese genetic people always lead the trend of the empire and be at the forefront of the trend?
And as the most noble class in the empire, it is normal for others to learn and imitate them.
Because people have such a blind obedience mentality and like to learn everything about those high-level people so that they can become like them.
