"In addition, the Yingxiu Lu family, the Jinsha Xu family, and the Donggang Chen family are also families that need active help." Wang Shouzhe said seriously again, "In the past forty or fifty years, our Wang family has intermarryed with them. The marriage has established a deep relationship with each other."

None of these three families are very powerful families. But it was precisely because of this that he entered into a direct marriage with the now-declined Ping'an Wang family. Among them, the Yingxiu Lu family has the closest relationship. Wang Shouzhe's biological mother is from the direct line of the Lu family.

At the same time, the current wife of the Yingxiu Lu family, Wang Liuling, is also the sixth-generation eldest daughter of the Wang family, and Wang Shouzhe's biological aunt. The relationship is quite complicated and close.

"Yes, these three families are now very close to my Wang family, so Shouzhe, what do you think?" Wang Xiaozhi nodded in agreement. Of his two daughters, one married the Gongsun family of Shanyang and the other married the Chen family of Donggang. His son Wang Dingbang, who died young, married a direct descendant of the Jinsha Xu family.

"Fourth Grandpa needs to quickly sort out the cause and harm of this insect outbreak. I will send a general to inform these six families overnight." Wang Shouzhe said quickly, "Among them, the Liu family of Shanyin and the Xu family of Changning have been cultivated by the clan. As long as the spiritual insect masters are given methods and methods, I believe it will not be difficult for them to solve this crisis on their own. In addition, the main business of the Jinsha Xu family and the Donggang Chen family should not be agriculture. We can only reduce their losses after fulfilling our notification obligations."

After a pause, Wang Shouzhe added: "The more troublesome ones are the Yingxiu Lu family and the Shanyang Gongsun family. First, we must fulfill our obligation to notify them as soon as possible. In addition, we need to actively assist them and do our best. . In this way, even if they suffer a lot from the insect disaster, they will only be grateful to us rather than resentful."

Wang Xiaozhi was stunned by these calculations and remarks. He never expected that a sudden outbreak of an insect plague would involve such a complicated situation.

More importantly, Wang Shouzhe was able to arrange the matter so thoughtfully and meticulously in such a short period of time, taking care of all aspects.

"Shou Zhe, it was Fourth Grandpa who underestimated you and Luo Jing." Wang Xiaozhi sighed with a wry smile, "The young people of your generation are indeed better. When we get older, our Xiaozi generation is really Old."

"Fourth Grandpa is too modest. If your generation had not maintained the inheritance of our ancestors, how could we, the younger generations, have a foothold?" Wang Shouzhe said modestly, then sneered, "Except for those six families, especially It's the Liu family and the Zhao family..."

Wang Xiaozhi's expression suddenly became serious: "Don't worry, Shouzhe, in the next ten days, our three major farms of the Wang family will completely block the news."

Unexpectedly, Wang Shouzhe narrowed his eyes and laughed: "The outbreak of the insect plague cannot be hidden. Everyone has an agricultural master. In less than three days, the entire Changningwei area will be boiling. By the way, Fourth Grandpa, you are not Did you stock up on a batch of pest control powder at a low price?"

When this matter was mentioned, Wang Xiaozhi's expression was full of annoyance: "Yes, last winter's insecticide powder was the lowest price in history, and large quantities were discounted. I originally thought that the three major farms at home were all away from home. Instead of using insecticide powder, we discussed with several elders and stocked up a large quantity, which is enough for our family for three years. No, there are still more than three hundred gold worth of goods left. It’s a big loss. After this insect plague, How can those insect killer powders be useful?"

The family is now in such a tight situation, losing more than three hundred gold in one fell swoop, which is enough to make Wang Xiaozhi go to his grave with guilt.

"Chongchong Powder shouldn't have completely lost its effect, right?" Wang Shouzhe pondered for a moment, while his mind started working rapidly.

"That's not true. It's just that it's more difficult to deal with adult honey bugs than insect eggs." Wang Xiaozhi's face was very solemn. "I just tried it. I had to mix a double dose of plant ash juice to get rid of the honey bugs quickly." , and that doesn’t include the subsequent hatching of honey worms.”

Then, Wang Shouzhe tossed out questions one after another like a machine gun.

Wang Xiaozhi was overwhelmed before, but now he did not dare to underestimate Wang Shouzhe, and patiently answered them one by one. He is now seventy-five years old. He started farming with his father when he was fifteen years old. He has been farming for sixty years so far, and his experience is indeed extremely rich.

"So in an ordinary year, the output value of winter wheat per mu is about 15 copper." Wang Shouzhe quickly sorted out the data in his mind, "After deducting taxes, tenant farmers' commissions, agricultural tools, cattle seeds, insecticide powder, etc., fixed amortization In the end, the amortization of the pest control powder was about 1 copper, and the overall gross profit was 8 coppers per mu. If the pest disaster is not properly controlled, the farm will enter a slight loss stage based on a 50% reduction in production. The greater the reduction in production. The greater the loss..."

"If we don't care about anything, I'm afraid we will have to reduce production by about 70%." Wang Xiaozhi was shocked. He understood what Wang Shouzhe meant and made some judgment, "If an insect disaster breaks out, increase the investment of 2 large copper coins." The insecticide powder can control the disaster to less than 20% of the production reduction compared with previous years."

"Daqian Country currently implements a unified official grain reserve mechanism. It is a serious crime for any aristocratic family or business firm to take advantage of a good year or a disaster year to speculate on grain prices." Wang Shouzhe continued to sort out various conditions, "Therefore, when production is reduced by 70%, Basically, every 10% reduction in production is reduced by 1 copper and 50 dimes, and a reduction of 5% in production is worth 7 coppers and 50 dimes. Then the question is, if there is no spiritual insect master to control the honey bugs, then the two coppers will be lost. Is it worth investing in insecticide powder!?"

"It's worth it!" Upon hearing Wang Shouzhe's analysis, Wang Xiaozhi immediately nodded quickly, "I will vote even if it's 4 big coppers." At the same time, his eyes lit up and he was excited: "Listen to Shouzhe. What it means is that the 300 qianjin insect-killing powder our family hoarded is not only not a loss, but it is also worth 600 qiangjin? Okay, okay, those guys laughed at me for hoarding the insect-killing powder."

"It is worth at least six hundred gold. Our family has Wu Mei Luo Jing, a junior spiritual insect master who specializes in treating honey insects. Those insect exterminators are no longer used. But compared to the entire Changningwei area, the spiritual insect master It's just a drop in the bucket, and most families have to rely on pest control to disperse disasters." Wang Shouzhe smiled calmly, "Congratulations, Grandpa Fourth, for making a lot of money for the family."

"Hahaha, that's great." Wang Xiaozhi smiled so much that his face turned rosy, "My Luo Jing is such a treasure, she deserves to be my granddaughter, Wang Xiaozhi."

The corner of Wang Shouzhe's mouth twitched. These four old men were really shameless. They had previously favored boys over girls. They kept saying that their granddaughter would lose money. In the blink of an eye, Luo Jing became a treasure.

But speaking of it, Luo Jing, the future spiritual insect master, is really a treasure. Even if the new iterations of the pest control powder continue to be effective in the future, she can still save the family one or two hundred dollars in expensive "pesticide fees" every year, and the money saved is pure profit.

"However, all of this is due to your blessing, Shouzhe." Wang Xiaozhi smiled from ear to ear, "Fourth Master finally understood what you said. Sometimes bad things tend to turn into Good thing. Shouzhe, you are a blessed person. Our Wang family will definitely get better and better after you become the clan leader."

Although superstition is a bad thing, Wang Shouzhe still appreciates Wang Xiaozhi's superstition.

And with his forward thinking, if he didn't seize some business opportunities during this insect disaster, he would be a time traveler. Grain prices are strongly controlled by the Daqian government and speculation is not allowed, but the Daqian government does not prohibit the speculation of insecticide powder, right?

A plan was gradually taking shape in his mind.
