(Please vote monthly)_2 “Anbeiwei has abundant sunshine—if it can maintain its irrigation. It can produce two seasons of Pearl Rice each year, which is of excellent quality and very inexpensive. With ticulous farming, each acre could yield up to twenty-five dan, selling each dan for three Copper Coins, making the annual yield per acre seventy-five Copper Coins. Additionally, with the intercropping of cumin spices and straw used for silage feed, the gross annual inco per acre could reach one Qian Gold and twenty Copper Coins.”
“The region of Anbeiwei is vast, about five to six tis the size of a normal guard region. Its biggest feature is the absence of hills, lakes, or forests, allowing for maximized land use. This facilitates large-scale farming, irrigation, and harvesting, significantly reducing costs.”
“Just Anbeiwei alone is estimated to have 12 million acres of farmland suitable for Pearl Rice, with an annual economic total value reaching about 15 million Qian Gold.”
People from the Shangguan family gasped as they listened.
15 million Qian Gold each year! What a staggering figure, equating to 1.5 billion over a hundred years.
Sure, everyone knew these were gross earnings and taxes and various costs needed to be deducted. Yet, even so, it left them profoundly shocked. Who could have imagined that Anbeiwei, previously undervalued by everyone, had such high economic potential?
“Livestock is also a major feature of Anbeiwei; with inexpensive silage feed combined with Pearl Rice as fodder, it can sustain a large number of cattle and horses, which are highly competitive in the market. Pay attention to this chart which shows the cost of raising a cattle compared to its selling price, the gross profit reaches a full three Qian Gold.”
“In the future livestock farms planned in Anbeiwei, we are expecting to breed two million high-quality beef cattle and two million dairy cows, with the dairy cows’ plan to follow. Just the beef cattle alone will yield a gross profit of six to seven million.”
The scale of beef cattle is very large, output ample.
In wealthier nations on Earth, the per capita annual at consumption is rely fifty to a hundred pounds. But this is the Profound Martial World, where Profound Martial cultivators rely heavily on at consumption to supplent their Qi and blood. It’s impractical for even cultivators from the Spiritual Platform Realm, Heavenly Human Realm, or even the Purple Abode Realm to consu vast quantities of Spirit at daily—it would be too costly. It’s necessary to supplent with regular at as well.”
Moreover, the majority of this world still comprises lower-tier cultivators, with a considerable consumption of ordinary at.
“Please try our Jade Crystal Grape Wine, this wine has beautifying and nourishing effects,” Wang Zong’an then brought out beautiful glass bottles of wine and a complete set of elegant glassware, pouring a glass for everyone present.
The crimson grape wine emitted fragrant aromas, perfectly complented by the transparent glass.
Upon tasting, everyone found it indeed was sweet and flavorful, with a lingering aftertaste, truly qualifying as a fine wine.
“The ample sunlight in Anbeiwei contributes to the sweet and rich flavor of the Jade Crystal Grapes produced here, and the wine we brew is top-grade. Though not as fine as Spiritual Wine, wouldn’t a bottle selling for twenty to thirty Copper Coins be reasonable? With our plans for the Jade Crystal Grape bases and wineries in Anbeiwei, producing tens of millions of bottles annually is just the beginning. With successful marketing, it’s sure to be a lucrative project.”
In the Imaging Disk, young beautiful girls either brewed Jade Crystal Grape Wine or worked on bottling it, all within the clean and aesthetically pleasing factory environnt.
Under Wang Zong’an’s vivid description, a series of comrcial plans unfolded in the minds of those present, clearly depicting the enormous future profits.
Not to ntion the mbers of the Shangguan family were dazzled by the prospect of earning Qian Gold, even An Commandery Prince, who had heard this for not the first ti, still felt his blood boil with excitent, developing what one might call the grand illusion of “I, too, am a wealthy man.”
“Young Clan Leader Zong’an, earlier you ntioned leading us to prosperity…,” Shangguan Zhenhai, a well-traveled and experienced clan leader, was also visibly moved, swallowing hard, “Could it be, you plan to share the benefits of Anbeiwei with us? If we could receive a substantial share, we are willing to take risks to support An Commandery Prince.”
As Wang Zong’an said before, the Shangguan family was indeed short of money.
Kang Commandery Prince has many supporters, and given the current state of the Shangguan family, even if they were to join Kang Commandery Prince, the benefits would be limited.
On the contrary, if they could secure a stake in Anbeiwei, what would the Shangguan family have to fear?
Moreover, An Commandery Prince had quietly laid such a grand strategy, not to ntion securing the support of two Great Heavenly Proud from the Changning Wang Clan, but also revitalized Anbeiwei, which everyone had looked down upon… The chances of success were not absent in the future.
“Senior, you jest. Anbeiwei is the foundation of His Highness; countless years of effort have been poured into it. How could it possibly be given away lightly?” Wang Zong’an replied with a light, casual laugh, “It is only because our Wang family greatly supports the developnt of Anbeiwei that we can have a share.”
Shangguan Zhenhai was nearly fuming with anger.
Although he understood the principle that ‘no pain, no gain’, you, Wang Zong’an, had painted such a rosy picture of Anbeiwei’s prospects, raising their expectations, only to say at the last minute that they had no part in it.
That’s not a fair way to treat people.
“Is Young Clan Leader Zong’an here to make fun of us Shangguan folks?” Shangguan Zhenhai said indignantly, “If you ca with the purpose of making enemies, congratulations, you’ve succeeded.”
“Senior, do not rush. Just because we do not share the benefits of Anbeiwei, it does not an there are no other benefits,” Wang Zong’an remained unruffled by Shangguan Zhenhai’s anger, calmly adjusting the Imaging Disk, “Anbeiwei, as far as the entire Northwest Region is concerned, is just an insignificant corner. Please, look here—”}}
