Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated

Chapter 184: Unlock four passive decisions in one go! Big production!

 “As long as everyone knows this chapter, please don’t discuss it in the comment area!”

Even though he was mentally prepared, Brigadier Wang was still startled by the Yellow River. He never expected that this person would make such a big deal when he first came up, and he would immediately take off.

 However, as the person who knows agriculture best in the border area, he naturally supports such a good thing with both hands.

"Okay, this matter will be taken care of by our 359 brigade. As long as there are enough seeds and seeds, I will return you a piece of Jiangnan in one year."

"One more thing. We are about the same age. Don't always call me brigade commander. This title is too unfamiliar. Either you just call me Wang Huzi like everyone else, or you can just call me Lao Wang. "

 “Old Wang!”

 “Hahaha! Good! Refreshing!”

　　We had a great time chatting with each other, and we became familiar with each other over the course of a meal.

 After dinner, Brigadier Wang took Wang and Huang to visit the land reclaimed by their brigade. As if he had thought of something, Huang He's expression became very serious, and he asked tentatively:

“Old Wang, how is the ban on lollipops in our border area?”

This sudden question confused everyone else present, and no one answered it for a while.

The reason why Huanghe asked this question is very simple. He simply cares about the people's livelihood.

 The war caused by lollipops is the starting point of modern Chinese history. It has harmed hundreds of millions of people and is a scar that cannot be bypassed no matter what.

 According to statistics from Guofu, the total population of the Republic of China was 474 million in 1932. There are 80 million people in the country who are entangled by that thing, accounting for 16.8% of the total population.

 Taking into account the weak grassroots control and statistical capabilities of Guozhou at that time, the real number will only be larger.

 Before October 1936, Shaanxi was one of the areas most severely damaged by that thing. There was a history of growing and selling it here for nearly a hundred years.

After being stunned for a few seconds, Brigadier Wang showed a reassuring smile. He patted Huang He on the shoulder and said:

"Don't worry, our experience in this area is definitely the best in the country. When we first arrived in Shaanxi four years ago, the army launched a massive campaign to ban lollipops and brought the situation under control within a few months. "

"Young man, don't forget one thing. Our border area has been blocked by my nephew. That thing is very valuable, but if you can't sell it, who will grow it?"

“Besides, ordinary people are not stupid. Who doesn’t know that life is the most important thing? At the beginning of this year, there were signs of famine in the province. The villagers are taking advantage of the time to cultivate wasteland and grow food, and no one touches that **** anymore.”

 After receiving the affirmative reply, Huang He showed an expression of relief.

 Lollipops are small in size and light in weight, and the terminal selling price is quite high.

In the Republic of China, where the financial system was chaotic, that thing could be ranked alongside gold, silver, pounds and US dollars as the main circulating hard currency, and was collectively called "yellow, white, black, and green."

Taking into account the quantity scale and difficulty of inspection, lollipops can even surpass the most precious gold, silver and foreign currencies, becoming the most cost-effective and circulating currency before the Anti-Japanese War.

 As a person who traveled back in time, he knows how chaotic the Chou Country is because of this thing.

 Just ban it, that’s a good thing! It is a great thing that benefits the country and the people! I have to give a thumbs up to the senior management! So fast!

 Brigadier Wang could clearly see Huang He’s lingering fears. In order to reassure the new comrade, he continued to add:

“When we first came here, we forcibly destroyed a batch of lollipops from the production areas. As compensation, we left rations and seeds for the people to help them switch to growing food.”

“The army will register all those with criminal records and give them abstinence within a certain period of time.”

“Comrades will also organize production education to involve people who are not engaged in production and have degenerate behaviors into the tide of industrial and agricultural production, so that they know that they are members of society and stimulate their determination.”

“Although some people did not survive, the vast majority were transformed through productive labor and became positive people.”

The moment Brigadier Wang finished explaining, the system in Huang He's mind began to shake violently. This level was unprecedented, and I felt a little dizzy for a moment.

“Old Wang! I’m going to use the bathroom! This Hunan cuisine is delicious, but it’s too spicy. My northern stomach can’t stand it for a while.”

“Okay, let’s go back and continue talking about business.”

"Who is not the owner of the bathroom? It's just that the conditions are a bit crude."

 After jogging all the way to the toilet, Huang He immediately turned on his system.

“Ding ding ding ding! There are new updates in the system, please check back in time!”

Ignoring the urging voice, he quickly concentrated. At this time, four new bonuses actually appeared on the interface at the same time. This spectacular picture made him confused for a moment.

“Our land: For centuries, tenant farmers who worked the land had to pay taxes to their landlords. From now on, we’re going to change that.

 A grain of grain can save a country, or it can stumble a country. You may not know that famine during a certain period of time can really cause people to starve to death.

 Everyone doesn’t have enough to eat. I’ve seen it all with my own eyes.

 But from now on! Such a scene cannot happen again!

 Effect: Civilian factories in the system can be exchanged for agricultural items that were ahead of their time! "

“Implement the three major principles: follow the command in all actions, do not take advantage of the masses, and all seizures must be returned to the public. As long as our comrades implement these simple and easy-to-understand disciplines, the people will naturally understand that we are on their side.

 Effect: Production rate of civilian factories in the system: +4%"

“Banning the trade in lollipops: Lollipops have always been a tool to poison the people, and we must not allow them to continue harming the masses.

 Effect: Production efficiency of agricultural items in civilian factories in the system: +5%"

“Abolition of rent: The hard-working farmers are the real owners of the land, and by mobilizing them to get their land, we will be able to ensure their support.

 Effect: Total civilian factory trade value: +36%》

 After seeing the new bonus, Huang He had some doubts about life. He even felt that he should have gone straight to the border area. Unlocking four passive decisions in a row is too powerful!

But this is an afterthought. If we don’t go to the southeastern Shanxi base area, the production lines and weapons provided by the decision will not be sent there. After all, transportation is underdeveloped now, and there are still obstacles in the way.

 Coming out of the bathroom, Mr. Huang is more confident about large-scale production. After washing his hands, he immediately returned to the conference room of the 359th Brigade.

“Lao Wang, how many people in your brigade can participate in the construction work now?”

Although he couldn’t keep up with Huang He’s out-of-the-box thinking, Brigadier Wang still subconsciously answered after hearing the question:

“Seven thousand to eight thousand, if you count the common people, this number can almost double. You know, our border area has a very good mass base, and everyone will not refuse to work together to open up wasteland.”

“Okay! If I tell you, we can give the 359 brigade 2,600 kilograms of rice seeds per mu, 5,000 kilograms of carrot seeds per mu, and 6,000 kilograms of Chinese cabbage seeds per mu.”

"And it can also provide sufficient fertilizer. How much food can you grow!" As soon as he finished speaking, the entire conference room suddenly became silent.

 After a while, everyone was breathing heavily with red eyes. Brigadier Wang's eyes widened even more, his bearded man was calm and his gaze towards the Yellow River was full of disbelief and disbelief.

“The yield per mu is two thousand six hundred kilograms, Lao Huang, are you kidding me!”

Most of you here are from poor backgrounds. Before joining the army, you often farmed with your family. After arriving in the border area, he cultivated intensively and opened up many fields.

 They know the yield of crops very clearly, taking SD Province as an example. Even for experienced farmers who take good care of their fields and actively apply fertilizers, the yield of wheat and barley per mu is only about 150 kilograms.

Even the most ferocious pumpkin can only produce 1,400 kilograms per mu.

 This number was in history before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War. In the areas occupied by the Japanese, the land is often desolate and the output is reduced. The above data must be discounted at least in half.

 It's good now, the production capacity has been increased dozens of times. There are not only staple foods but also vegetables. How can this not make everyone in the conference room suspicious.

 Rice is familiar to everyone, and it can also be made into rice noodles, rice noodles, rice cakes and wine, which perfectly takes care of comrades in the army from the south and the north.

This thing can also be stored in the war preparation warehouse in case of emergency.

 Winter in the border area is affected by dry and cold air, and precipitation is sparse and very cold, so it is very suitable for growing cold-resistant and high-yielding cabbage.

Before the return of the Yellow River, life in the army was a bit tight.

 In many cases, soldiers could only eat boiled cabbage, and even salt was not necessarily available. If there were a few cans of meat seized from the Japanese, that would be everyone's most desired meal.

Before the host could answer, Brigadier Wang asked again: "You didn't add an extra zero, did you? Even a yield of 260 kilograms per mu is very high!"

Being asked this question, Huang He felt a little guilty.

 In later generations, he was a serious scholar and had never farmed at all. It can even be said that there is a lack of common sense in this area. At most, they only know how much a bag of rice costs.

However, he is very sensitive to numbers. After all, one of his majors is applied mathematics.

 In memory, there were only 2,450 acres of agricultural land in Lanniwan in 1940. After the 359th Brigade opened up wasteland for a year, the area increased five times to 12,000 acres.

By 1944, this number reached an astonishing 26,000 acres.

The average yield of rice per mu is 2,600 kilograms. Even if it is calculated as 12,000 mu in 1941, it will be 31.2 million kilograms by the time of harvest.

 Huang He clearly remembers that preserved fruits collected a total of 15.6 to 18.2 million tons of grain during the entire Anti-Japanese War. Let us ignore the corruption in the middle for the time being.

 That means that if the Eighth Route Army has grain-producing areas in two provinces, it can completely assemble the military grain for the entire Anti-Japanese War period within one year.

After settling the account, Huang He himself was shocked. After reciting Yuan Lao Qiangu silently in his heart, he explained to everyone in the conference room:

"You heard it right! This number is real! I dare to use my head as a guarantee. If the deviation exceeds 10%, I will twist off the head and use it as a chamber pot for you!"

"I talked with the bosses this morning, and we decided to establish a production and construction corps based on the 359th Brigade. While guarding the border areas, we will start building base areas!"

“The first target is Mud Bay! That will be our big granary!”

 Then it was time to discuss specific arrangements. Huang He began to tell everyone in the conference room about the arrangements for the next year.

When it comes to Lanniwan, the first thing most local residents think of is the smelly water and black mire in Huangshan Mountain. There are mountains and mountains in a radius of hundreds of miles, and only the forest can be seen but the sky is not visible. Wolves, leopards and yellow sheep are scurrying all over the mountain, leaving a desolate place with few people.

 However, a closer analysis shows that the terrain here is mainly hilly, and the terrain is relatively flat and suitable for farming. There are many rivers passing through it and the water resources are very abundant.

This piece of land that seems to be overgrown with weeds, thorns, and sparsely populated will turn into a fertile land as long as it is cultivated properly.

 During the period of Qing Dynasty's control, several large-scale battles took place near Slime Bay.

As long as the horse road that transported grain at that time was expanded, the road going north to the border area could be connected, and the transportation problem would naturally be solved.

 With such a large area, the 8,000 men of the 359th Brigade are definitely not enough. After all, in addition to farming, they also have to raise pigs and chickens.

 In order to have sufficient numbers, the army must be expanded. With new recruits, training has to be taken into consideration, and the workload is doubled.

 Under normal circumstances, it is difficult for ordinary generals to manage more than 10,000 people in an orderly manner.

But Brigadier Wang has his own management skills. In the early years, he led the comrades in the south to participate in various sports, and by the way, he also served as a gold medal thug.

 He can summarize the appropriate management system based on the current situation of the army.

 Speaking of this, Huang He expressed heartfelt emotion. It's good to be backed by a big organization. There are many people here, and basically everything just needs to be provided with plans and supplies.

 Speaking of talents, we have to mention a few low-key masters in the border area.

 Originally, he was planning to make the decision to "establish the Academy of Sciences" and allocate the researcher quotas provided in November to agriculture. But after the director learned about Huang He's arrangement, he immediately told him some secrets.

 In February this year, Guanghua Farm was established in the border area.

There are many agronomic scientific research talents in this farm, and they have made remarkable achievements in crop cultivation, breeding and promoting excellent varieties, and preventing and controlling diseases and pests.

Comrades have developed new varieties of potatoes and silage corn based on the local climate and soil. They are treasures that can be harvested twice a year through crop rotation and multiple planting.

Before Huanghe came to the border area, he had always thought that the plan to open up Lanniwan to increase grain production was proposed by the commander-in-chief in 1941.

But he never expected that there would be a forest inspection team in the border area.

They spent half a year conducting personal inspections and provided the bosses with a "Border Area Forest Inspection Report" in the middle of this year, which clearly explained the many reasons for the reclamation of Lanni Bay.

After the director mentioned this, Huang He immediately thought of something important.

 A year later, in 1941, the Academy of Natural Sciences was established in the Border Region to set up the Department of Biology, which was later reorganized into the Department of Agriculture.

They cooperated with Guanghua Farm to conduct research on the important local pest, the millet borer, and selected and promoted the borer-resistant variety "Langwei Gu". They also worked hard to promote the planting of cotton and mulberry and silkworm cultivation.

 The most powerful one is coming. In 1943, the four great masters Le, Li, Chen, and Fang initiated the establishment of the Chinese Agricultural Society.

 With these agriculturists and animal husbandry and veterinary experts, there is no need to use a system to recruit researchers.

With the best warriors and the best experts, we will plant the land and no one can stop it.

Post first and change later!
