    "Having said that, it is a pity that such fertile fields are used to grow cotton. In the past, the fields used to grow cotton were dry and inferior fields."

    "It's okay now. These landowners all use such fertile and high-quality fields to grow cotton. It's really a waste of natural resources when you look at it!"

    Liu Jin was thinking in his mind, but the people next to him were still chatting away. Some people saw Liu Jin and Zhu Houzhao, but they didn't pay too much attention because they were attracted by the steam cultivator to watch the fun.

    "I feel the same way. It would be a pity not to grow wheat in such good land."

    "What's the pity? If you think it's a pity, why don't you rent it and plant it?"

    "I don't farm. Farming is exhausting all year long. In the end, I won't even be able to eat a full meal. I might as well go to the city and work hard. At least I can eat enough and there is still some leftovers in the bag.  silver."

    "Isn't that what it is? There is no one for these wealthy landlords to farm. If you say they don't grow cotton on this land, why should you ask them to grow it?"

    "Even with this steam cultivator, if there was no steam cultivator, this land would only be in a panic. The landlords and wealthy people would not cultivate the land themselves."

    "It would be a pity to panic."

    ¡°It¡¯s a pity, because no one is growing wheat now anyway.¡±

    ¡°Whether it¡¯s growing cotton or raising pigs, chickens, ducks and geese, it¡¯s more cost-effective than growing wheat.¡±

    ¡°Raising pigs?¡±

    "Who is going to raise pigs? Raising pigs requires a lot of food. If you don't even have enough to eat, who has food to feed the pigs?"

    When I heard someone talking about raising pigs, someone immediately said it like a conditioned reflex.

    They are all people who are used to poverty, and their lives have only slowly gotten better in the past few years, so when they think about raising pigs, some people immediately shake their heads.

    "You, this is all a matter of years and years."

    "You don't know how much the price of pork has risen to per pound."

    "Here in Beijing and Tianjin, the price of a pound of pork has risen to fifteen cents per pound, which is double the price. The key is that there is not enough to sell this pork."

    "Beijing and Tianjin each have a population of several million, and the combined population of the two cities exceeds tens of millions. With such a huge population, the food eaten every day can be piled up into a mountain."

    "You don't know~"

    "My son works in a factory on the cement road leading from Tianjin to Shanhaiguan. Thousands of cattle and sheep are shipped from Tianjin to Beijing and Tianjin every day. The marine fish salvaged from Tianjin Port every day can be piled up.  Mountain."

    "This pork, although it is not as good as beef and mutton, but since the Ming Dynasty Morning Post reported on the castration of pigs, the smell of the pork has completely disappeared, and the growth has also changed very quickly. The fat produced  Meat is definitely everyone¡¯s favorite.¡±

    "The demand for pork is getting stronger and stronger. The entire Beijing-Tianjin area consumes at least several thousand pigs every day. Plus chickens, ducks and geese, there is not enough for Beijing and Tianjin."

    ¡°Raising pigs is also a very profitable business.¡±

    When someone talks eloquently, the people around them also listen carefully.

    Zhu Houzhao and Liu Jin were also silent and listened quietly. From these ordinary people, we can learn a lot of useful information, and we can roughly see the economic development of the Ming Dynasty and the living standards of the people of the Ming Dynasty.

    "These cattle and sheep are actually not very easy to raise, because they only eat grass and need pasture to raise them."

    "But pigs are different. They can be raised in captivity, and pigs are not picky about food. They can eat leftovers and swill, and they can also be fed sweet potatoes, corn, potatoes, and even sweet potato leaves."

    "Actually, it doesn't require much food to feed."

    "In the past, everyone thought that food was expensive and there was not enough for people to eat. Naturally, no one raised pigs. But it is different now. The production of food has increased greatly, and there is more food to feed pigs."

    "Everyone has eaten enough, and now they are gradually paying attention to eating well and eating meat. The business of pork, chicken, duck, fish, beef and mutton, etc. is very good."

    "Liu Yidao, who used to kill pigs in our town, now goes to the capital to kill pigs and sell them. It is said that more than 20 pigs will be sold on this day. He is busy from morning to night and makes a lot of money.  .¡±

    "I haven't seen his family build a large reinforced concrete building, and I heard that? Money, a truly wealthy family.  "

    "I've heard it too. It's said that the powerful people in the capital even go overseas to seize private colonies. We, the Ming Emperor, don't care about this private colony. As long as we occupy it, it will be our own little kingdom.  , you have the final say on everything, just pay taxes to the emperor every year."

    "This is such a big change. A few years ago, we were still suffering from famines and starving. Now things are better. They say they want to run away from the whole world."

    "No, I haven't seen all the young people going out. Whether it's working in the city or working as a crew member at sea, it's better than staying at home anyway."

    ""

    Liu Jin and Zhu Houzhao listened carefully. After hearing their conversation, Liu Jin couldn't help but smile. Because of his butterfly wings as a time traveler, the lives of the people of Ming Dynasty have also undergone earth-shaking changes. They are no longer full.  It's so simple, it actually looks like traveling through past and present lives.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
