Chapter 464 Mingren need high protein intake(2/2)
Gao Yangzhi on the side also looked slightly sideways, looking with some confusion in his eyes at the emperor's grandson who said he wanted to buy up all the cattle and sheep on the grassland.
"On the grasslands outside the Pass, herdsmen graze and breed cattle and sheep as the basis of survival." Gao Yangzhi narrated in a low voice, but his brows couldn't help but frown: "However, the herdsmen outside the Pass do not eat beef and mutton as their main food. Meat is always the main food.
The food will be concentrated in the hands of the tribal leaders and chiefs, while the herdsmen will mostly feed on the milk of cows and goats and some captured prey and wild vegetables."
Gao Yangzhi seemed to want to understand why His Royal Highness, the great grandson of the Ming Dynasty, suddenly became concerned and wanted to buy up all the cattle and sheep on the grassland.
This is very unreasonable, and no one has ever thought of it like this.
Zhu Yunxi glanced at Gao Yangzhi, the youngest member of the cabinet who was about to be assigned to take charge of the empire's foreign affairs.
"Cattle and sheep, like herdsmen, are the foundation of the grassland."
He reminded lightly.
Gao Yangzhi frowned, and various things appeared in his mind, constantly connected together, and rebuilt into a new three-dimensional structure.
When a bright light flashed before his eyes, Gao Yangzhi looked deeply at His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun behind the desk.
Fan Chong also realized that the matter he wanted to do seemed to be something of great significance.
He couldn't help but bend down and stretch his head, asking in a low voice: "What does it mean?"
Gao Yangzhi glanced at Fan Chong, who had a curious expression on his face. He always felt that His Highness might have found the wrong person.
He explained: "Actually, Your Highness does not need you to buy all the cattle and sheep on the grassland, but you must ensure that the cattle and sheep on the grassland cannot maintain the current balance of the herdsmen, tribes, and tribal leaders. As long as this is completed, the European Supervisor will
You have made a great contribution!"
"Balance..." Fan Chong murmured in a low voice, and then said loudly: "Your Highness can actually exchange weapons with that Mahamu for cattle and sheep. At this time, they want the imperial court to give weapons, which can be used to control them.
!”
Gao Yangzhi shook his head and said: "It is absolutely impossible for the imperial court to send them weapons, but they can send more iron tools to the Wara tribe through the hands of the Oujiang Envoy. Their craftsmanship is not as good as that of the Ming Dynasty. The iron tools are smelted and remade.
It will also take a lot of time. Even if there are alien intentions and hidden ambitions, I, the Ming Dynasty, will have enough time to react and mobilize troops and horses to garrison the border fortress."
Fan Chong replied: "We can also sell goods according to the distance of the tribes on the grassland, so that some tribes can keep cattle and sheep, and some tribes should keep as few cattle and sheep as possible. When the time comes..."
Fan Chong let out a sinister laugh.
If not everyone present knew this guy's identity and position, others would probably think that this guy was plotting against Ming Dynasty.
Gao Yangzhi also smiled: "At that time, as long as there is a white disaster outside the customs, even if it is a little colder than previous years, they themselves will be in chaos due to food shortage."
Fan Chong thought of more.
After all, a lot of interesting history has also happened on the land of Europa.
Fan Chong said in a low voice: "Faith...faith on the grassland is too weak. If we can induce...to go to the grassland, we can deprive more tribes of their wealth and prevent the leaders of those tribes from intervening."
Zhu Yunxi stopped tapping his fingers on the desk, and the gentle sound of horse hooves finally stopped.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Fan Chong immediately looked over. From the face of the emperor's grandson, he saw a trace of displeasure.
Your Highness Sun, please forgive me."
Zhu Yunxi said softly: "God has no control over the East..."
He looked at Gao Yangzhi on the other side.
"There are many ways to weaken the grassland, and cattle and sheep are just one of them. Gu Yu's purchase of more cattle and sheep is also to allow me, Daming, to eat more meat."
The local people are really short of meat. Even the soldiers in the army can hardly eat meat.
Simply relying on small local households to raise poultry is completely insufficient to supplement the protein intake needs of the vast majority of Ming people.
"The imperial court now has some spare money, and there will be more and more money in the future. This money must be spent before it can be turned into money in the real sense. When there is more and more money outside the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court may one day be able to
You can easily conquer a place without using a large army."
Zhu Yunxi talked about the most superficial knowledge about economic plunder.
He wasn't sure whether Gao Yangzhi could understand it. After all, he didn't know much about this either.
Gao Yangzhi lowered his head and thought for a long time. He didn't know if it was true that the emperor's grandson said that the Ming Dynasty needed more meat. He also didn't know how he could conquer a land without using a large army.
But after a long time, Gao Yangzhi raised his head and said: "The imperial court must create a price difference to ensure that there is a big enough price difference during the transaction process, and the imperial court can quietly evacuate the entire grassland!"
Is Gao Chunfeng about to become enlightened?
Zhu Yunxi blinked and suddenly realized that there were moments when he couldn't keep up with these people's thoughts.
