Marin obviously did not want to be a sucker to receive cheap copper coins made of Indian copper. In fact, if the price of Indian copper should depreciate several times. For example, like the Ming Dynasty, one tael of silver was exchanged for 1,000 copper coins.

If you accept copper coins minted from Spanish Indian copper, it would be equivalent to the Spanish making a few times the difference. Although the relationship is good, Marin is not willing to be cheated. As for opening your mouth to buy a merino, it would be a lion's mouth. Because the Spanish cannot agree.

The Spanish regarded the merino sheep as a treasure and kept it from taking action. Marin had thousands of merino sheep in Ayuen, but Spain did not allow him to sell merino wool. Therefore, Marin had high-quality wool and could not be sold in the European market.

Fortunately, Marin used the North Sea Sheep, a hybrid breed of British ewes and merinos, which is a sheep with very good wool quality. Although the quality of wool is not as good as that of merinos, it is one level higher than that of British wool. However, in a few years, this high-quality breed of sheep has only 30,000 to 40,000 sheep, and is still desperately expanding its number, which is not enough to have an impact on the European market.

However, with the rise of East Friesian milk sheep, residents of the North Sea Kingdom seem to prefer East Friesian milk sheep. The reason is that East Friesian sheep can provide a lot of dairy products, providing stable food and nutrition sources for sheep farmers.

In this era of expensive food, any food was precious. The goat dairy products provided by East Friesian sheep are obviously a low-cost, high-nutrition food. Moreover, it is very cheap. After all, sheep just need to eat grass.

Nowadays, sheep farmers line up to raise East Friesian sheep, but are reluctant to ask for Beihai sheep. Fortunately, most of the farmers are serfs these days, and Marin forced the promotion, so that Beihai sheep will not be ignored.

Before going to the Ming Dynasty, Marin selected a group of ewes with the best milk production ability to produce ewes with Dongfri, who had the best milk production capacity, for optimization and breeding. Now, three or four years later, the 1,000 people looked like they gave birth to two children a year, giving birth to two to three small lambs. And the lambs grew up in one year and could produce lambs... In this way, in three or four years, there were actually more than 10,000 ewes. However, after re-screening, only 5,000 ewes could maintain an annual production of more than 500 pounds of goat milk. The production capacity of other female sheep was slightly degraded.

The 5,000 people who were given to the people for self-cultivation of milk production were less than 500 pounds. In three or four years, the number increased to more than 50,000. There were more than 30,000 ewes alone. Moreover, more than 7,000 people who produced more than 500 pounds of milk produced annually. Then, these high-yield female sheep were taken back by Marin and cultivated in a concentrated manner to avoid the degeneration of the breed.

However, there are still more than 30,000 ewes in the folk. These East Friesian sheep, which produce less than 500 pounds of milk per year, are very popular among the people.

Because all farmers and estates that raise East Friesian sheep have endless cheese and cream and endless goat milk. The children have grown taller after eating too much dairy products.

So, now the manors below are waiting for Marin's breeding center to start promoting high-yield East Friesian sheep to the public. In this way, everyone in the manor may be able to eat dairy products. Unlike now, due to limited production, they can only give priority to supply children.

...

In fact, Malin is also anxious, and he also hopes to obtain stable high-product varieties as soon as possible. However, stable varieties cannot be cultivated in a few years. Only when the production capacity is stable after several generations can it be considered high-product varieties. Otherwise, suddenly the outbreak of a certain generation does not count. Just like Yao Ming is a big man who is 2.26 meters tall, can you say that Chinese are giants? Therefore, it is necessary to rely on several generations to observe and cultivate them to obtain truly stable and high-yield varieties...

However, there is a big problem with goat milk now, that is, the smell of goat is relatively strong. Children who eat too much goat milk always have a smell of mutton, which is very bad. Unlike noble children like Caesar, they drink milk every day, and smell better.

How to remove these mutton smells? Marin suddenly thought that radish. Cooking radish and mutton can absorb the mutton smell. Cooking with goat milk is the same principle.

Last year, after returning from the Ming Dynasty, Malin brought back the seeds of the carrot. Later, he asked someone to plant and promote several manors near Wilhelmshaven where he was hiding in the early days, but I don’t know what’s going on now…

So he called Kohler and asked him to send someone to see...

Soon, the sent people came back. The report said that the farms over there were now full of radishes. However, the owners of the manors didn't know how to deal with the radishes, and did not dare to make a decision without authorization. They piled the radishes in the warehouse, and as a result they rotted a lot... Of course, there was no problem with the preservation of seeds, that is, the radishes themselves were not resistant to preservation...

"Damn..." Marin swears, blaming himself for being careless, and he almost forgot the carrots.

According to the person sent, three batches of radishes have been planted in the local area, and one batch has been planted in more than three months on average, and a lot of radishes have been harvested. However, the only ones that have been preserved are the ones harvested last winter. Most of the first two batches have rotted, and those manors dare not eat them...

"How many radishes are stored now?" asked Marin.

The person sent to investigate thought about it and said:

"There are about millions of pounds. The thing called radish is too high and can be grown in two or three months. However, the locals dare not eat it randomly. Because this is something that the Grand Duke personally ordered, and they did not let them eat it..."

"Then why didn't they report to me that the carrots are ripe?" Marin was a little depressed - how many carrots had they wasted before...

"Uh..." The person who reported the report paused and said:

"They said that Xiaoxiao Manor is in charge of the business and are not qualified to report to you..."

When Ma Lin thought, it was true that the management of the small manor was equivalent to the village chief in later generations. Have you ever seen the village chief report to the national leaders? So, after all, it was because he was negligent and did not send anyone to follow up.

In fact, with the carrot seeds currently in control of those manors, if there is enough land to plant, millions of pounds of radish can be produced every season. Now, the reason why there are only one million pounds is that they did not dare to expand the planting area privately...

...

After Marin realized his mistake, he immediately sent someone to transport the radishes and gave it to farmers who raise milk sheep, so that they could cook them with goat milk. After cooking, goat milk will remove the mutton smell. The radishes that absorb the mutton smell can be used as feed to feed livestock...
