Cultivation of chastity

Chapter 156 Winter
"Is it raining so much?" Yuan Keshi couldn't help but twitched the corner of his mouth, thinking to himself, no wonder it's wet here.

"Well, a batch of wheat seedlings we planted were directly drowned, so this place is not suitable for growing wheat, but more suitable for growing local rice.

As a result, we can almost say that everything has to start all over again.This is very troublesome!

But there are also a lot of new medicinal materials here. I am editing a new herbal medicine book, and I am looking for new rice seeds along the way, which can be regarded as helping. "

"Thank you so much!" Seeing Liu Shenwei swaying in front of his sickly self, Master Yuan Ke also felt tired!

In any case, with Liu Shenwei's care, Master Yuan Ke and the teachers and students of the agricultural school quickly got over the acclimatization, and some of them were in good health, and they took the initiative to join the medical class to cultivate the fields.

To be honest, although the land in the south is not at the point where it can be planted by just spreading it, but because of the temperature here, the local crops can take root and germinate very quickly.

Although the medical camps come from agricultural colleges, they can reclaim wasteland, cultivate rice fields, etc., as long as they follow suit, they can be done.

But when it comes to farming, it still depends on the group of students brought out by Master Yuan Ke who are almost purely agricultural.

The biggest difference between them and the medical battalion is not how good their skills are.

Rather, they have basically done experiments on peas with their own hands, and they understand how to choose the best ones to cultivate plant seeds.

And how to use scientific thinking to accumulate advantages little by little, and continuously optimize the crops that need to be cultivated.

At least before mastering the microcosm, or even understanding knowledge such as DNA, this technology is almost the best genetics technology at present.

Even so, cultivating and planting in this way is somewhat similar to the fact that "Pokémon" does not have constant stones and red threads to constantly incubate eggs, and the randomness is too great.

But how to research the immutable stone, how to make the red line, so as to ensure that the seeds of the next generation are the best, anyway, Li Tai can't do it, it's up to them.

In any case, the group of students and teachers sent by Li Tai is definitely the top agricultural researchers in the world. Their arrival will naturally bring new vitality to Lingnan area.

It can help the entire Tang Dynasty and slowly unlock the potential of Lingnan.

Of course, in the first year they must cultivate slowly, and in the second year they will reap.

But in the third year, Li Tai believed that in the land of Lingnan, as long as there are still people who want to eat, they must be respected.

This will definitely jeopardize Feng An's control of the Lingnan area, but the current members of the agricultural school are staying in Guangzhou, and Cheng Zhijie is taking care of them.

As for the third, to be honest, this kind of behavior of relying on farming advantages and then slowly eroding, unless Feng An rebelled, it would be almost impossible for Feng An to prevent the infiltration of agricultural schools.

After all, you can't expect Feng An's Feng family to have strong personal control over the Liao people.

This is also the reason why Li Tai supports the students from the agricultural college to go to the corners of Datang to develop.

Because the Central Plains are all good fields, and the aristocratic family's control is very strong, it's fine if you don't touch the fields, but as long as you do anything rash to the fields, the disciples of these agricultural schools may disappear inexplicably.

In contrast, in the border areas, as long as there is absolute guarantee in terms of force, the infiltration of the grassroots by the students of agricultural colleges is at least not something that ordinary families in the border areas can resist.

Uh...Fan Yang Lu's family and Taiyuan Wang's family sit down, and you have nothing to do.

Naturally, Feng An didn't know about this point. On the contrary, he couldn't help showing a look of joy when he saw that Li Tai actually sent people from the agricultural school.

Originally, he wasn't very worried about Sue Sugar, but now that there was such a commotion in Lingnan, he needed to recover quickly.

If he manages this business by himself, he won't be able to control the development of Lingnan at that time, but he can see the future of the Feng family clearly.

Therefore, after Feng An knew that the students and teachers from the Agricultural Institute had arrived, he sent a lot of local specialties over.

Even he himself began to invest heavily in the construction of sugarcane gardens.

After all, since Li Shimin said that Feng An's sucrose can be used as military supplies, it is natural to charge as much as it has.

Unless it really reaches the point where mass production even the army feels too much, otherwise, it may not be easy for ordinary people to have a taste.

It can be said that after the Liao people's uprising was suppressed, the entire Lingnan area began to undergo a great chaos.

It was almost the end of October, and the agricultural colleges that had reclaimed a lot of fields began to learn from the locals and continue to plant seedlings.

And Li Tai also entered the busiest time. The common people who had been working in the Gaoling factory saw the autumn planting day coming, but they asked the factory for leave one after another, and then went back to farm.

A bustling Gaoling, with the arrival of this day, except for the carriage house, which is considered the busiest, the rest of the place has become depressed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

To be honest, it is only natural for Li Tai to know this kind of thing, and these factories are basically built by themselves, and the managers inside are only managers, not private companies, so it has some influence on these factories, but not As for causing social unrest. .

But for some people in the local service industry, many of them were planning to do a big job at first, but in the blink of an eye, the crowds of people who were originally hustle and bustle all left, which really made them a little dumbfounded .

However, what can this do?I can only admit that I am unlucky, and there are more than a dozen families who borrowed usury and jumped into the river directly!
Li Tai looked on indifferently, and didn't mean to interfere, because this kind of cycle is impossible to avoid in the current society.

Even I will encourage myself, and only people who have paid taxes will be eligible to come to work in slack farming in the future.

As for what kind of private black heart factory they want to go to, to be honest, this is unrealistic.

Not to mention that the general environment of the whole society determines that it is impossible for any private black heart factory to appear now.

More importantly, how did Li Tai's factories start up? They undertook the entire Zhengbaiqu project, and then subdivided the various supply materials for the Zhengbaiqu project, and then carried out docking supply.

As long as Zheng Baiqu's project is completed and there are no new projects at the same time, if there are no factories raised by Li Tai, many of them may close down, let alone any unscrupulous factories, after all, no one will do business at a loss.

As far as the current social productivity is concerned, agriculture is the primary productive force, and Li Tai never thought of changing it in a short time.

Because the current production environment is absolutely impossible, regardless of the consequences, if a large number of people are forcibly transferred to workers, the first thing they will experience is a great famine.

After all, there is only so much spare population that the agricultural society can provide. This is determined by the general environment. Anyway, Li Tai has no ability to make changes now.

So now Li Tai even took the initiative to arrange boats and carriages to send these migrant workers home.

Now Gaoling mainly grows wheat, at least until the next wave of wheat harvest, they will not come out to work.

But now they use the food stamps they have saved to buy all kinds of more durable living materials in Gaoling at one time.

For example, pots and pans, or bring some novel food, take it home for the family to taste.

To be honest, this scene made Li Tai feel a bit like Spring Festival travel.

Although the time and space are different, I believe their joy should be almost the same, and Li Tai is also somewhat embarrassed at the moment.

However, as a large number of people left, the efficiency of each factory naturally dropped.

But because they are working for themselves, as long as the basic number of people is maintained, it is enough for Li Tai.

In contrast, it is necessary to let them sum up a management system for migrant workers one by one, so that these farmers can be managed more reasonably.

At the same time, they also need to actively improve the production tools. After all, as a large number of migrant workers return to farming, they need to use fewer people to complete more work, and naturally they need to improve work efficiency.

At this moment, Ma Zhou approached Li Tai and said, "Winter is coming!"

"Huh?" Li Tai was stunned when he heard this, because Li Tai didn't understand what's the matter, don't you have to work when winter comes?

And Ma Zhou continued, "It's still a matter of keeping out the cold!"

"We should have enough reserves." Li Tai looked at Ma Zhou and said, "Is it the gloves or the scarf?"

"There is no shortage, but the question is, those who have not mastered the Chinese language in East Turkistan, should we send them?" Ma Zhou asked.

"Send!" Li Tai said with the benevolence and equality of a capitalist, "As long as they work, send them!"

Hearing Li Tai's decisive words, Ma Zhou breathed a sigh of relief.

What he was most afraid of was that Li Tai would discriminate against these East Turkic adherents who had not yet mastered Chinese.

But now, it was obvious that Li Tai was kind, so Ma Zhou felt relieved to take them to work.

After all, I didn't plan to rush to work in winter, but with so many manpower here, it's not for nothing!

"Wait a minute, it's already winter..." Li Tai pondered, "Don't stop the construction process.

But guarantees are also taken care of, don’t skip any chicken soup noodles, and put on winter clothes, gloves and scarves for them.

In addition, as long as they work, open the bathroom for me so that they can take a hot bath after work. "

"Other things are easy to talk about, but this hot bath is a little tricky!" Ma Zhou said, "It's okay now, there are a few built on the side of Zhengguoqu, and occasionally people go to wash it, but if it snows in a few days I’m afraid it’s not easy to get briquettes to light a fire.”

"Then arrange manpower to increase the number of bathrooms, and build a warehouse directly nearby, and store part of the charcoal fire in Gaoling there before it snows."

Li Tai thought, no matter how good they are to the labor force, they will repay you. After all, even leeks don't cut the roots!
Li Tai continued, "In addition, arrange for the medical building to set up a branch there. The weather turns cold, and I'm afraid there will be more sick time."

"Okay!" Ma Zhou couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "The king of Yue is really a benevolent king, the prince is like this, the heavenly family is very lucky!"

Li Tai waved his hand and told Ma Zhou to go back to work.

Even though the migrant workers had already gone home to farm, and they were not seen moving bricks on the entire Zhengbaiqu project site, but even so, the winter months were not worth wasting.

It's better to let them work hard and work harder to finish the work.

With Li Tai expressing his attitude, Ma Zhou also began to distribute cotton coats and winter cotton gloves with confidence.

Although it was originally intended to be distributed, if the Han Chinese sent it to those Eastern Turkic survivors who could not speak Chinese, although these Eastern Turkic survivors would have nowhere to vent their grievances, this would eventually bury the conflict.

But it is much better now, everyone can get cotton clothes and handkerchiefs, and let them enjoy the same treatment as Han people in winter.

When Wei Xu brought his bad guys to deliver these cotton coats and gloves to these East Turks, most of the East Turks couldn't believe it.

Because they are the real people at the bottom of the prairie. In the past, they might not have enough food and clothing all year round. Every time they followed the Khan's army to invade the south, their biggest wish was just to make a living until next spring.

But since they were handed over to Honglu Temple by the nobles of their own tribe and then sent here, they felt as if they had come to heaven.

As long as they work here, they will be given food. For the first time, they know that there is such a good place in the world.

Especially those of the same race who have learned the Chinese language, they have transformed themselves and enjoy the same treatment as the Han people.

Not only did he start to manage himself and others, but he was also able to exchange food paper from the Han people, to exchange food for savings, and to buy new clothes to wear.

Now as winter is slowly approaching, most of the Eastern Turkic survivors among them also thought of the cattle and sheep that kept freezing to death in winter, and even their own people.

But before they had time to worry about whether they would freeze to death if they continued to work in winter, the Han people had already distributed winter cotton clothes, gloves and scarves to themselves.

Even if it is a daily meal, the number of appearances of chicken has begun to increase.

Especially when they returned to their residence covered in Han, and found that there was a new steaming bathroom around them.

Even if there are food stamps in this bathroom, they can use the food stamps to go in and wash at any time. If they don't have food stamps, they can only wait until the last day of each week to squeeze in a big bath with everyone.

But even so, the vast majority of Eastern Turkic survivors also found that if they became a dog of Datang, not to mention becoming a person of Datang, they seemed to be much higher than their original life.

All of a sudden, although snowflakes began to fall in the sky, the Eastern Turkic survivors who were digging the canal with various shovels and hoes were working very hard. Driven by them, they were still working vigorously even in winter.

"My lord, Li Tai, the king of Yue, conscripted hard labor, disregarding human life. In the cold winter, he still let the laborers dig water canals, and reproduce the old canals of the Sui Dynasty!"

Hmm, as the heavy snow fell in winter, those idle censors found that the Zhengbaiqu area was still in full swing, and with the thought that being idle is also idle, they first advised to complete the KPI.

After all, even if corvees were used in ancient times, they would not be used to death. People like Li Tai who forced corvees to work in winter, did they treat the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty as blind!
