- "How many slaves do you have?"
When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he immediately smiled and felt that he had found a like-minded person.
I have many women, so I look at this big ranch. I can see that there are more than 20 people there. I look at the children who are looking over curiously. They are a big group, and they are both curious and scared at the same time.
??????????Looking at these children more carefully, some are blond, with fair skin and pointed noses, and some are of mixed Chinese and Western descent, just like some of my own children.
"Not many, not many, just over thirty."
Lai Ermao smiled and replied: "A dozen of them have given birth to children for me, and they are considered concubines. There are more than twenty who have not given birth to children for me, so they will always be considered slaves."
"Where do these slaves come from?"
Zhu Houzhao nodded slightly and looked at the women around Lai Ermao. Lai Ermao was not tall, and could even be said to be short, but many of the women around him were taller.
If you look more carefully, you can still see some differences.
"This is from Tianzhu. I used to say it was a Brahmin. It cost me more than a hundred taels of silver to buy it back."
"This one is from Persia, and it cost a lot of money. This one is from the Middle East, this one is from the Ottoman Empire, and these are Slavs and Poles from Eastern Europe." At this time bxwx.co Zhang Si
"These are Italians~"
¡°I couldn¡¯t understand the language they spoke, and it felt almost the same. It took me some time to figure it out.¡±
Lai Ermao smiled and called his more than a dozen concubines over, asking them to salute Zhu Houzhao, and at the same time introducing the places where they came from.
"But they can all speak our Ming dialect now, so I don't need to worry about anything."
¡°You can do that, this is from all over the world.¡±
When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he immediately raised his eyebrows and said with a smile.
"Alas, they are all slaves, not us Han people."
"What I want most now is to marry a Han Chinese wife, but I am already over thirty, and it is difficult to marry a Han Chinese wife."
When Lai Ermao heard this, he sighed helplessly.
Although there are more than thirty women here, none of them are Han. This is the biggest failure of Lai Ermao.
¡°When he was in Shaanxi, he couldn¡¯t get a wife, and his family was extremely poor. Later, he heard that after immigrating here, there would be a share of women, so he immigrated here.
This woman is a woman, but she is not Han.
It is really difficult to marry a Han wife, especially since he is old and not very good-looking.
"It doesn't matter whether we are Han or not."
¡°Look at me, my dozen or so wives are not Han Chinese.¡±
Zhu Houzhao smiled and pointed at the dozen beauties around him.
"That's what I said~"
"But look at my children, none of them look like us Han people, especially the ones with blond hair, yellow hair, and eyes. They are all blue, and very few are black."
Lai Ermao nodded helplessly, and then called his children over. A dozen children stood in a row and saluted Zhu Houzhao in unison.
Although many of them don¡¯t look like Han Chinese, they are all authentically Han Chinese in terms of dressing, speaking, and etiquette.
"Just be content~"
"How come there are so many women and more than a dozen children, and it's not like living a happy life?"
Zhu Houzhao looked at Lai Ermao. When he first arrived, he seemed to be enjoying the sunshine with his legs crossed, and all his women were busy non-stop.
It can be said that the huge pasture is supported by the women under him. As for him, it seems that he is just a breeding pig, eating and drinking every day and only responsible for sowing seeds.
"It's cool~"
When Lai Ermao heard this, he immediately smiled and nodded.
To be honest, he never dreamed that one day he would be able to live such a small life.
His ranch is large in scale and covers a very large area. Coupled with the business model of a large ranch, it breeds a relatively large number of cattle, sheep and horses.
The Western Regions are connected to the railway again, and the railway is still built here in the three provinces of the river, Central Asia, and Northwest.
This has increased Lai Ermao¡¯s income a lot.??, his annual income from this large ranch can reach several thousand taels of silver.
The income of several thousand taels of silver this year is a very considerable income.
You must know that the income of a worker here in the Beijing-Tianjin area is less than 100 taels of silver a year, but his ranch brings in income of several thousand taels of silver a year.
Such a considerable income also allowed Lai Ermao to become rich quickly. He bought more and more slaves, and he also specialized in buying beautiful slaves.
When he was in Shaanxi, he was a bachelor who couldn't even marry a wife. Not to mention earning thousands of taels of silver a year, he couldn't even get enough to eat by farming for others, and he couldn't even eat much in a year. Good meal.
¡°Look now, I have bought more than 30 female slaves, I have a large ranch, I earn thousands of taels of silver a year, I am living a small life with my legs crossed, how happy it is.
This is something I never dreamed of before.
"However, people's hearts are not enough. He still wants to marry a Han wife if possible. But even with a large ranch and thousands of taels of silver a year, it is still too difficult to marry a Han wife.
Because the Han people who migrated here are basically similar to him. They all live a prosperous life and live a very comfortable life. No one would think of marrying an old man in his thirties like Lai Ermao. , the key is that the person is not very good looking.
"That's right~"
"When you have good days, just live them slowly, don't mess around."
"What is the main grazing on your ranch?"
Zhu Houzhao smiled and then asked about the situation of the ranch.
"I mainly graze cattle and sheep here. Now the prices of cattle and sheep are rising and they are easier to sell. I also raise some horses, but the breed is very average. I am going to replace them with some good quality horses."
"The government asked us to raise a kind of cotton sheep from Europe. I don't know if it will be beneficial or not. You are a noble person from the capital. Can you help me analyze it?"
When Lai Ermao heard this, he stood up and pointed to the livestock grazing in his pasture.
"Sheep should still be good, but they need to be sheared frequently. Textile factories in the Beijing-Tianjin area have a huge demand for wool. There are many herdsmen on the northern grasslands who specialize in raising sheep and selling wool."
Zhu Houzhao smiled and wanted to reply.
At the same time, I silently made a note in my heart. 强牺 bxwx.co 读牺
The government of Central Asia Province is very effective. They are definitely indispensable for the rapid development of the large ranch economy in Central Asia Province. Without the help of the government, these immigrants probably would not be able to adapt to the status of herdsmen all of a sudden. . Zhida z.com Zhixiao
But with the help from the government, they not only received guidance, but also various technologies and seeds, which shows that the government can play a big role in production.
Promoting good production methods, cultivating excellent varieties, and then promoting them. This animal husbandry is actually similar to farming. Cultivating good varieties and promoting good farming methods can bring about earth-shaking changes.
This Central Asia Province is the best example. Without the vigorous promotion and help of the government, the current Central Asia animal husbandry industry would never be possible.
PS: Are you happy with this kind of life?
