The Lord of the World Begins from the Siheyuan

evening.

Li Ming took Lou Xiao'e back to the small world.

Lou Xiao'e, who changed into light home clothes in her room, returned to the yard.

"Will Sister Qin come over tonight?"

Li Ming opened the letter, read it, and replied casually: "She is having a treat at noon today. She has been busy all day, so she probably won't be able to come over."

"Do you have anything to do with her?"

"Nothing." Lou Xiao'e asked again, "What are you looking at?"

"The letters the production team wrote to me."

Lou Xiao'e personally handled this matter and asked with a smile: "How is it? It's all good news, right?"

Li Ming didn't even raise his head, "It's all good news, lots of good news."

"Many production brigades have said that they should save more seeds and distribute them to other production brigades."

Those production brigades that didn't have good news were probably coaxing among themselves, and they definitely didn't have time to reply to him.

Not all production brigades are as united as the Xiangyanghua Brigade. Not to mention the communes, many brigades have changed their spokespeople.

The number of production team captains rarely changes.

First, there are only about 100 people in the entire production team. After excluding old men, old ladies, children, and those who cannot read, the number of candidates to choose from is limited.

Secondly, production captains are more tired than ordinary members. They have to take the lead in work during the day and have to work overtime and attend meetings at night. It is a typical hard job that few people covet.

If you have that time, you might as well consider becoming a warehouse keeper or a livestock breeder.

Not only can you work less, but you can also take home some benefits.

Lou Xiao'e lay on Li Ming's back, resting her chin on his shoulder, and read the letter together, "My sister, Uncle Fu, and I, our busy work last year was not in vain."

"At first I thought it was very simple. But later when I saw rapeseed and grass seeds, I realized that I was too naive. A pound of grass seeds comes in such a big bag."

Li Ming said with a smile: "Things that have immeasurable merit will definitely not be in vain."

"Next year, when new varieties are planted all over the country, that will be the time for the big harvest."

Lou Xiao'e's knowledge has also increased, "If you don't have meat to eat, you won't be full no matter how much you eat."

Li Ming said casually: "Let's do everything. I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry."

"You're always so patient."

Lou Xiao'e suddenly realized, "Did you change a pen?"

Li Ming said calmly: "I haven't changed it. I have several pens. This one is used in the security department office."

"After listening to their report on security work today, I took them with me when I left."

It was actually a Qixi Festival gift given to him by Zhou Xiaobai.

Lou Xiao'e only had a few pens herself, so she didn't think much about it, "The situation in Hong Kong City is getting more and more serious now."

"Yesterday, there was another accidental injury to a student. How about you take action to make both parties stop?"

Li Ming stopped reading the letter, took her hand and held her in his arms, "I guess you've been wondering for a long time."

"You think that since I have the ability to get the Hong Kong Police Force to crack down on the white powder sellers, I also have the ability to make them compromise and admit defeat, right?"

Lou Xiao'e blinked her bright eyes, "I thought you might have something to do."

"The child was accidentally injured, which made you feel a little guilty because you felt you had the ability to stop it but didn't."

Lou Xiao'e nodded and said: "Yes!"

"Like you, I'm quite sympathetic. Alas! It's a pity that I'm not omnipotent."

He went on to explain in detail: "The people in the Hong Kong government are acting on the orders of Ying Guo. It is useless for them to be soft. Ying Guo's people will not be soft."

"Moreover, keeping the window of the port city now, from a practical overall point of view, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages."

"The people in To Kwa Wan Command may have acted on their own initiative, but there are many people in this group who are really not afraid of death."

"It is said in the Tao Te Ching that if people are not afraid of death, why should they be afraid of death?"

"I hardly get involved in matters on the mainland, just for this reason."

"We can eat as much food as our belly has."

Lou Xiao'e understood: "I understand."

"I read the newspaper today, and I couldn't help but sympathize with the heartbroken parents of their children."

"The accidental injuries in Hong Kong City will not happen twice at the same time. As time goes by, new accidental injuries will definitely occur."

Li Ming frowned, "Today there was a car accident on Sanlihe Road in the capital. A person was hit and killed. The family members were crying and fighting on the side of the road. It was very unbearable."

"Accidents like this can only be said that life is unpredictable."

Lou Xiao'e asked doubtfully: "What are you doing in Sanlihe?"

Li Ming vaguely changed the topic, "Passing by, I went to Purchasing Sanke's farm in the countryside to personally see the effect of fermented feed."

It was impossible for him to say that he passed by when he was sending Zhou Xiaobai back to Erligou.

As expected, Lou Xiaoe asked: "How is the effect of fermented feed?"

"It's not bad. After being fed part of the fermented feed, the pigs have a great appetite, eat very actively, and grow actively. They can gain half a catty in weight a day."

Lou Xiao'e didn't know how much she should grow every day, "Is this considered acceptable? Can it be promoted nationwide?"

"It's pretty good. Don't rush to promote it. We still have to observe whether the pigs have any adverse reactions."

Li Ming remembered and warned again: "You arrange for people to collect pig feed formulas from Ou Mei and Riben, as well as nutritional requirements information for each growth stage. I will bring it back to the capital for their reference."

Regarding the small matter, Lou Xiao'e agreed: "It's not kept secret, right? I'll let people from the Cambrian Laboratory look for it."

Rubbing the smooth skin, it was a great enjoyment. Li Ming chuckled and said: "The specific formula must be kept secret. We only need to know the general information."

"The breeds of pigs are all different, so the feeds must be different, and there is not so much grain in the country to use as feed for the time being. It is just for reference."

Lou Xiao'e let him do whatever he wanted, "That's easy."

"Wheat from Canada and Australia is really cheap. As soon as the ship arrived at the port, the price of flour in the port city has already dropped slightly."

Li Ming commented casually: "The land is vast and the people are sparse. If you just sow a handful of seeds and ignore them, you will not starve to death just waiting for the food to be harvested in the fall."

"What's more, they have large farms with oil that can be mechanized. They have enough cheap fertilizers and the output is not low."

“There are too few people to eat, so we can export large quantities of low-priced grain.”

Lou Xiao'e said smoothly: "The population is really small. Australia only has about 1 million people, which is only the population of three port cities."

"The 2 million people in Canada are not much more."

Li Ming sighed: "It's really easy for them."

"We can't give them any advantage!"

Lou Xiao'e asked strangely: "Why can't we give them an advantage?"

"Such a large piece of land is all given to them. Do you think it is a benefit to them?"

Lou Xiao'e asked: "That's someone else's place. You can't just grab it, right?"

Li Ming asked back: "Why can't we rob it? They robbed the local indigenous people's territory. What's wrong with me snatching their territory?"

"They are only allowed to rob others, and others are not allowed to rob them. This doesn't make sense."

At this time in 1967, Australia was still debating whether Aboriginal people were human beings, and it was impossible to have land.

There is only one flag in the hands of scum like China, Canada, and Australia.

The other flag is still in our hands for the time being, Min Note. Although our economy is far behind, we are a proactive party because those scum are indeed at a loss.

This is also why talents like the Cambridge Five emerge.

Li Ming is very confident now. We have more people and less land. We can go to places with vast land and sparse people.

Each village has its own interests and conflicts. No matter what the relationship between the country and the country will be in the future, it is a good thing to reduce the tight per capita natural resource ownership.

Australia, if 1000 million people immigrate there, it can replace all the local people.

The serious way is definitely not feasible, and there are still many crooked ways.

It just so happened that Li Ming had a lot of crooked ideas.

Lou Xiao'e grabbed his increasingly excessive hand and said, "Do you have any plans?"

"There are no people in Australia and Canada. I plan to kindly help them and send them some people."

Lou Xiao'e became more and more confused as she listened, "Should we help send people there? Why send them there? Are they growing food?"

"Yes, I plan to buy a large farm in Australia and recruit a large number of people to grow food there."

"Australia already has enough food, but the price is still very low. How can you make a profit?"

"I have no intention of making money. It's just an excuse to recruit people to grow food. The actual purpose is to immigrate there."

Lou Xiao'e confusedly didn't understand why he did this. He had done so many good things, and she wouldn't find anything surprising in anything Li Ming did.

"Will Australia allow us to recruit people there?"

Li Ming took out his hand and pinched her delicate little face, "We are not allowed to go openly, but we can come secretly."

"Hasn't that Ah Hai in Wan Chai occupied a larger territory? He has more brothers to support, right? I guess he is very willing to do the smuggling business."

Lou Xiao'e reminded: "I heard people say that the port city is far away from Australia, so even the toll for smuggling is not cheap!"

Li Ming already had a preliminary idea, "It should be very cheap to use those ocean-going freighters to transport a lot of people."

"Li asked Huang Fuyi to inquire about the terrain of Australia, the cities and towns in the west."

“Start with a small place, start with a few hundred people, and then slowly expand.”

It would be great to transport people to Australia to mine, but his little world is short of various supplies!

This is something Lou Xiao'e is familiar with. "Huang Fuyi only knows a few words in English, so he probably won't be able to find out the details."

"I'll arrange for others to check this information. It just so happens that many people in Hong Kong are immigrating recently, so it wouldn't be strange to ask about Australia."

Li Ming agreed: "It's okay, you can make arrangements."

He has always been steady and steady in his work. The previous high-yielding crops were tested repeatedly to confirm that there were no problems, and then experiments on a larger area were started.

"Don't rush this, take your time. Hehehe, let's do something serious first."

"Your serious things are never serious." Lou Xiao'e said this, but her own little hands were also very dishonest.

"Say it like you don't want to."

"You're going to die!"

"It's you who will die soon."

. . .

Slim and graceful

. . .

Three days later.

morning.

Sunflower Brigade Cannery.

Li Ming, Captain Gao and others are inspecting the production situation.

Gao Jiande, the person in charge of the furniture factory and cannery, said: "Yesterday, 5000 bottles of canned peaches were delivered to Shi Jingshan."

“The cans being made now are all destined for the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill.”

Li Ming asked with concern: "Is there any problem with the source of the fruit?"

Gao Jiande replied seriously: "No problem, we have already discussed it in advance."

"When picking, we only pick good fruits. We don't want bad or rotten fruits."

Captain Gao added: "The fruit trees planted in 58 are now in the harvest period and there will be no shortage of fruits."

People in the past planted trees and people in the future took advantage of the shade. Fruit trees take a short time to become useful. They start to bear fruit after two or three years. You can also make profits by planting them yourself.

Li Ming smiled and said: "The cannery has caught up with the good times."

Gao Jiande promptly raised the unsolvable problem, "There has been some talk about our cannery recently."

"Some people in the commune say that the production team should not engage in industry but focus on agriculture. I wonder if they will come to the cannery to cause trouble later."

Li Ming didn't say anything, but secretly complained several times in his heart.

There are many factories run by communes and brigades that have closed their stalls and the workers have gone home to farm.

In fact, there is no such requirement from above, it is purely their own nonsense.

He clicked his tongue softly and said, "Build an earthen wall at the entrance to the village, and write the instructions of the great teacher in red paint on the wall."

"Just write, 'Commune farmers mainly focus on agriculture (including forestry, animal husbandry, sideline production, and fishery), but they should also study military, politics, and culture. When conditions permit, small factories should also be run by collectives.'"

Gao Jiande smiled happily and said: "Brother Xiao Ming, you are better at studying ideology and you can think of a solution immediately."

"It's too late for the earthen wall, so I'll ask the furniture factory to build a big wooden sign to hold it up first!"

Captain Gao told Gao Jiande, "Make two more pieces, and set up one in the greenhouse and one here."

"It's not that I studied well, it's that I did things according to the instructor's instructions."

Li Ming also pointed out: "Don't use the same slogans on every piece. The newspapers from the past two days introduced the results of the army's factory construction."

"Read those articles carefully and pick out a few useful sentences. We can also learn from the army."

Company Commander Gao, who was standing by, interjected and asked, "Is it the one about the fertilizer factory?"

Li Ming nodded and said, "That's right, a 3,000-ton ammonia plant."

Company Commander Gao added: "I also saw that article."

"It was designed this year, constructed this year, and put into production this year. The construction speed is fast, the investment is small, and the quality of the project and output is still very good."

“At that time, I just looked at their results and felt proud of them.”

"I never thought that their deeds could be related to our team."

Captain Gao admired: "Theory is combined with practice. Section Chief Li is really ashamed of himself."

Li Ming smiled and said modestly: "In recent days, various streets, units, and enterprises have carried out many activities to 'support the army and love the people.'"

"Before I came down, the factory had just finished this meeting, which inspired my ideas."

The purpose of engaging in activities is to eliminate some of the bad influences from the past.

The day after tomorrow, the Workers' Sports Association will also hold a meeting on this theme, with more than 10 people participating.

The city issued a notice to the security department of the steel rolling mill, requesting cooperation in peripheral security work.

This is the key task now.

Captain Gao said with a smile: "Chief Li, you don't have to be too modest."

"My uncle went to the county to attend this meeting today. If our minds were as sharp as yours, we would have figured it out."

Company Commander Gao also smiled and said: "We only focused on reading the content of the article and did not learn and apply it. Compared with you, we are not even close."

Li Ming laughed, "It's all the same, it's all the same." (End of Chapter)
