Chapter 386: Then what if you don't?

   Chapter 386 What if you don't make it?

   Qingfeng will not go against Bai Wutong's words, and carefully put away the pearls, "Thank you for the grace of the Empress."

   Bai Wutong smiled, then picked up the pearl and looked at the sun.

  Pearls reflect colorful luster in the bright sun, delicate and smooth without a trace of impurities.

   This shows that the sea water and sunlight here are very suitable for cultivating pearls.

  A beautiful large pearl that takes several years to cultivate.

First of all, one-year-old adult mussels should be selected, and cell sheets or pearl nuclei should be transplanted into the mussels using minimally invasive surgery. Then, the pearl-cultivated mussels should be placed in net cages and hung in the water with ropes for nourishment. After two years, the Can open clams to get pearls.

  This cultivation method can form pearls into a sustainable and circular industrial chain.

  In this world, there is no way to cultivate pearls yet, and the price of pearls has always been high, which is one of the indispensable jewelry for women.

  If they can cultivate pearls and form a pearl industry chain, their profits are quite considerable.

  In addition to seawater pearls, freshwater pearls can also be cultured in this way.

  The color of pure natural pearls is uncontrollable, but cultured pearls can cultivate color pearls that never fade by transplanting small pieces of cells or adding various elements to form pearls in water.

  Besides jewelry, pearls are also used for various purposes, such as buttons on clothes, embellishments on dressmakers, additives in food, etc. Each line can make huge profits.

   In addition, pearls are a symbol of beauty. When the reputation of pearls in southern Xinjiang spreads, many merchants will come here. Even if Ling Guo does not want to communicate with them, Bai Wutong will find a way to sell the products to the other side of the ocean.

  A country's economic prosperity is the symbol of prosperity.

   A Duo knows where pearls are found in this sea area, and her clansmen are also very knowledgeable. It must be the best choice for them to bring other people to cultivate pearls artificially.

   Bai Wutong looked at A Duo, who was smiling wildly, "I know a way to cultivate pearls. I wonder if you would like to try it with your clan?"

   Although there are a lot of troublesome things to become an empress, and there is little personal time, it has a great advantage. You don’t have to explain any reason to everyone, they can make up the whole thing for her in their own minds.

  Those who can't figure it out will feel that she is favored by God and is the incarnation of a true dragon, capable of anything.

   Those who were suspicious in their hearts did not have the courage to question the imperial power.

  A Duo's eyes widened, "How to cultivate pearls? Can pearls be cultivated too?"

  For thousands of years, everyone thought that pearls are rare and original gems, and whether they can be picked up depends entirely on luck, not to mention A Duo's disbelief, even Yang Quanzi has never heard of the possibility of raising pearls even though he has traveled north and south of the Huazhou River.

   Bai Wutong smiled affirmatively: "Of course."

   "Rather than entering a workshop, I think cultured pearls are more suitable for your tribe. You can cultivate pearls while farming, and you can also have two incomes."

  Ado's people are used to being unrestrained in the wild. Even if they can bear to work in the workshop, they still yearn for freedom in their hearts.

  A Duo's eyes lit up, "How to raise it? How long will it take to pick pearls?"

   Bai Wutong smiled and said, "About four or five years."

  A Duo's smile froze, and he asked incredulously, "So long? It's been too long."

   When the pearls are picked, the daylily is cold.

   Bai Wutong said: "If you don't cultivate pearls, everyone will go fishing for pearls. Do you think you can often find such beautiful pearls in the future?"

  Pearls are valuable, even if they don’t buy them, women like them very much, and their men will try their best to get them one or two.

   Seeing that A Duo and the others went into the sea and caught pearls, many of which were of good water quality, so they quietly followed them into the water, and they really caught some pearls.

   Everyone is very jealous. Recently, there are many people who learn to swim at the seaside, so as to have the opportunity to go into the sea to catch pearls.

As soon as    Bai Wutong said these words, A Duo's face froze.

  Yes, so many people are fishing for pearls now, and they will definitely not catch many pearls in the future.

   A Duo said: "But four or five years is too long."

Bai Wutong said with a smile: "Big pearls take four or five years, which is quite a long time, and the time for cultivating small pearls will be shorter. You usually only need to take care of the fish cages, feed the pearl mussels, and plant the fields while waiting for the pearls to develop. When the pearls are harvested, there is no need to worry about not being able to sell them at a good price.”

   "After all, as everyone knows, pearls are full of treasures."

A Duo thought for a while, "What's the difference between the raised pearls and the pearls grown by themselves in the sea, and what is the yield? What if the mussels are not raised successfully and all the mussels die? Or what if the pearls haven't formed at all after four or five years? And it costs money to grow pearls, right?"

   They went hunting in the mountains and sold them to everyone, and they made some money, but with this money, everyone wants to buy a big house and buy beautiful furniture.

  A Duo looked at the carefree, but he had a good idea in his heart. He asked Bai Wutong a series of questions in one breath, and every sentence was the key point.

Bai Wutong answered patiently, "Raised pearls are compared to wild pearls. Sea mussels are fed by everyone. They absorb good nutrition and receive good sunlight, so they can grow bigger and more beautiful pearls, and the number of colored pearls will also increase. Become more."

   "If the correct breeding method is followed, and the climate and water temperature are normal, there will be no mass death of pearl mussels."

   "If you are afraid of risks, you can also choose not to raise them."

"Of course, if you want to raise them, the imperial court will definitely support the development of pearl aquatic products and give you some financial subsidies. You can choose to make up the rest by yourself, or you can borrow it from the imperial court, and return it to the pearl mussels when you get the benefits. court."

   Hearing this, A Duo immediately asked incredulously: "Can you borrow it from the imperial court?"

Bai Wutong had planned to build an official bank before, and smiled: "Well, advance your money in advance, but you have to repay the interest monthly, the proportion of this interest is very small, if you have extra money on hand, you can also If you repay the loan first, you will not have to repay the interest.”

  The loan program of modern banks is strict, and Bai Wutong personally instructed them to raise mussels, which is completely money in sacks.

   Borrowing money and still needing to repay the interest makes A Duo a little surprised, "Then what if you don't pay?"

Bai Wutong smiled and said: "There are still many solutions. Because of personal reasons, if you cannot repay the loan, you will naturally be punished accordingly. Your house or land will be mortgaged, and your personal files will also be affected, restricting you in the future. some rights.”

   When A Duo heard that there was such a big risk in borrowing money, he immediately persuaded, "It's terrible!"

Bai Wutong smiled and said, "If you can grow your pearls, you will not only be able to repay the loan, but also earn a lot of money. You can do whatever you want, buy whatever you want, and, I promise, I will use my method. , it will definitely allow you to grow pearls."

   "Of course, you can raise pearls without borrowing money. The cost of farming is not high. Usually, you can raise pearl mussels in a small sea area with the money you save by hunting in the mountains."

  The money saved from hunting is going to be used to buy a house. A Duo hesitated, and the cake painted by Bai Wutong was too tempting.
