In October, Wenzhou City, Wenzhou Province, the pedestrians on the street are bustling, the crowds of visitors are endless, and the praise is slightly searched in the crowd, so you can find a stall to buy baked sweet potatoes.

He walked slowly, smiled and asked, “How much is a baked sweet potato?”

The vendor said, "Big six, small three."

Gao Zhan took out the three-text money, threw it into the money box next to the oven, and said, "Give me a small one."

The vendor immediately picked up a sweet potato and said, "Well, this has just been baked out, and it's hot, you've always taken it."

He nodded with praise, took the sweet potato, took the hand bump, about three or four two looks, the weight is very full, he peeled the sweet potato skin, tasted it carefully, the taste is also authentic.

He couldn’t help but nod and admire, “Well, that’s the taste, folks, you’re Pingyang, aren’t you?”

The vendor laughed and said awkwardly, "I'm an old man, I'm the Wenzhou capital city, I just ordered this line on the other side of Pingyang, and I found relatives there to learn a few days of craftsmanship, which baked out like a little bit."

While eating and appreciating, he said, “It’s not just like a little bit, it’s the same taste as Pingyang, and the business should not be bad on this day?”

The vendor said with a slight courtesy: "It's still a problem to count the past, selling hundreds of them a day."

Gao Zhen quickly calculated in his heart, a pound of sweet potatoes five money, small three or four two, plus the cost of charcoal fire about two dollars, a sweet potato can earn a penny, the big is seven or eight two, but also earn a little more.

According to one article, one day's profit is one hundred, ten days is one or two silver, a month down is three or two silver, this business, a lot of money!

At this time, another old woman came with her two grandchildren to buy baked sweet potatoes, and the politeness of the way was said, and Shi Shi Yan left.

Turned two streets, the roasted sweet potatoes in his hand had been eaten for half, and it was almost noon, and he put the rest of the sweet potatoes with peeled skin into a beggar bowl on the side of the road, and even if the negative hand went to a restaurant in front.

There are still more than ten steps away from the door of the restaurant, and the shop at the door of the welcome is running up and offering: "Oop, big treasurer, you are old."

He nodded his head and smiled, "Well, don't worry about me, you're busy, I'll go in and see it myself."

The shop said, hurriedly nodded ha waist back to the door, began to attract other guests, praise and slightly admiring nodded to him, which strode into the lobby of the first floor of the restaurant.

At this time just arrived at the meal, the first floor of the lobby has been sitting full, praise roughly glanced at the dishes on their table, almost a potato on each table, vinegar potatoes, red potatoes, etc., the most or potato stew chicken, some tables and even a table three or four dishes are potatoes!

A vinegared potato silk, with about half a kilogram of material, cost about five, sold for fifteen, and the profit was about ten.

A red-hot potato, with a material of about a kilogram, cost about eight, the price of 20, the profit of about twelve.

A potato stew chicken, potatoes about half a kilogram, chicken about two or two, cost about 30 words, the price of 60, the profit of about thirty words.

The first floor lobby is full of more than 20 tables, noon to the time of not about a hundred tables, each table is only potato profits are about 20, a day down is four or two, plus other dishes incidental income, plus the second and third floor, a day potatoes to bring the income of not less than twelve, a month is three hundred, and the cost, 10,000 pounds of potatoes only fifty-two!

This business earns, praise the face can not be happy to open the flowers.

At this time, the people of Pingyang are also happy to open flowers, the county ordered adults to even sell things are arranged for everyone, every household as long as the planted potatoes and sweet potatoes handed over, there will be silver.

The average person has handed over about a thousand pounds, income of about four or two or five cents, and some in addition to leaving one or two hundred pounds of seeds, all the rest have been handed over and sold, can get seven or eight silver!

This farmer has money, the craftsmen are also happy to spend, they usually can not make clothes, make, usually reluctant to add agricultural tools, add, nearly ten thousand households, even if each household only spend five cents of silver, it is also five thousand silver.

The craftsmen of Pingyang, a total of less than 50, on average, each household is one hundred and two, in addition to the cost, gross profit is almost fifty-two!

This farmer and artisans have money, the official responsible for collecting taxes is also happy to open flowers, usually even the normal tax is dragged to the dead and alive, which even Liao Yi has been collected, in exchange, before, it is simply not dare to think of things.

The tax of the Ming Dynasty is not high, according to the standard of 20 taxes, an acre of land a year down the tax is less than 20 pounds, ten acres of land tax less than one or two silver, but with the increasingly serious land merger, coupled with the rapid increase in population, the general farmers do not eat enough, where the silver from the tax, so, many places have a tax situation.

After the addition of Liaoning is even more unspewing, Liao Yi is a acre of nine, ten acres is nine points, almost one or two, the tax is equal to doubled, farmers can not afford, every year are dragging, do not necessarily pay the tax on the official, do not pay the people, do not pay the people, do not pay the people, do not pay the people, do not pay the people do not sell land, so that the people can not sell land, so that the speed of land merger.

Throughout the whole Daming, to the apocalypse four years, like Pingyang, there is no need to urge, once the field and Liaofu and Tianfu are all collected, there is no existence!

Of course, this is only the beginning, if the development of this, with the choice of potatoes and sweet potatoes, intensive sowing, production will continue to increase, coupled with the promotion of rice two seasons, Pingyang people's income doubled is only a matter of time.

According to the truth, at this time, Zhang Bin should also be happy to open flowers in his heart, but unfortunately, his term is coming, whether it is the optimization of potatoes and sweet potato seedlings and the promotion of rice in the two seasons, he can't manage it, leaving him with only regret and insatiable.

If he could, he really wanted to stay in Pingyang for another three years, first raise the output of potatoes and sweet potatoes to more than 3,000 pounds, and promote the two-season rice.

However, I will not stay, in order to save Daming, he can no longer stay in Pingyang, according to the normal history, Daming will have twenty years to die!

If he does not want to climb up at this time, in a few years, even if he understands the historical development trajectory and can blow it again, it will be too late.

Because the cause of the demise of Daming is too much, not just land annexation, not just natural disasters, not just corruption, not just party disputes, but the result of the combination of all factors, these things, any one can not be solved for a year or two, if he does not grasp the power early, even if the ability is in vain.
