Chapter 1861 Spring Ploughing

In a blink of an eye, it was the end of the second month of the lunar calendar. The ice had almost melted, and the busy figures of the people could be seen in the fields!

This time they have tens of thousands of more refugees, so many barren mountains need to be developed and utilized, otherwise there will be insufficient arable land. Therefore, the people who have come from the brink of death work hard, hoping that there will be a good harvest in the fields this year and there will be no need to go hungry by that time!

The people of this era are already scared. They don’t have any food at home, so they are not hard, so they put their children on the ridge of the field. Even if the crabs are caught, they scream, and their parents don’t have time to take care of them. It will be fine if the pain is done for a while!

One of the most proud things about our party is to concentrate on major tasks, and so much wasteland was quickly reclaimed!

The soldiers and farmers' farm fertilizers were also picked up by bucket by bucket, and then they burned some cow dung and hay to make the whole field more fertile!

The seeds and other things were all sent, and they were all brought by Li Jian from special channels, which was much better than the wheat valley that had just been made from the granary!

The common people were ready to plant it as soon as they got the food. Although Li Jian was very proud of this anxious mentality, it was not the time to plant seeds.

There are farmers who are particularly good at farming nearby, and they ask them to choose a good day suitable for sowing, and then sow these seeds.

These ordinary people probably were afraid of hunger, otherwise they would not be so anxious.

Li Jian came to the ridge of this field that was once a wasteland, took out a crab from the child's crotch, and comforted the little kid who was crying.

The little brat who got two candies never cried again, as if he had forgotten the heart-wrenching pain just now. Although the little jj was still a little red and swollen, it should still be useful.

Seeing these refugees actively digging the ground, the third young master nodded proudly. For these ordinary people, the most important thing is not money, but a stable life and enough food.

This also applies to their troops. If a unit lacks guns and ammunition, it can still survive with a big knife and spear.

But if there is less food or something, the morale of the army will soon be disintegrated and you can't even eat enough. How can you lead the army?

"Old Feng, look at this situation, how much food can we collect this year?"

Lao Feng is a calculating person. He manages several nearby towns in an orderly manner, which makes the people admire the Eighth Route Army more, which also helps them win more hearts!

In the second half of the year, they need a lot of food. In addition to the tax paid by the people, they also need adults’ food to support other troops!

I don’t know what happened last year. There was no more scenes in the granary of some landlords’ homes, and some were just landlords crying for poor people.

Their independent detachment used to be a grain [31 Novel Network]. The warehouses are filled with rats and people are often sent to drive them away. However, recently, rats have died in several places where food is stored. The reason is very simple, they are all starved to death.

There are often severe droughts in Henan, or it is either a flood in the Yellow River. You should know that it is the origin of rice planting!

If there is any flood disaster or something, let alone the troops cannot raise food, even the people will be displaced and beg for food everywhere!

I don’t know how many people have escaped these days, and about half of them have been starved to death on the road.

The bark of the land was gnawed, which shows how important food is to the people.

Li Jian didn't want this kind of thing to happen. Even if a natural disaster was nothing, he always believed that man would conquer nature.

"From this situation, if nothing unexpected happens in the second half of this year, the food we collected should be enough for us to eat ourselves, and even if we support several nearby columns, there will be no problem.

But the premise is that we have to withstand the Japanese's mobilization first. When collecting food last year, these Japanese were making trouble!

So much so that when we sent people out to buy food, we encountered the Japanese, and small-scale battles occurred on both sides.

In the end, the people dare not sell our food to us. I don’t want this to happen again this year.

All the financial funds of Dagu Town were used by you to support the construction of the army. I could only use the remaining small part to support the economic construction of several towns.

So you must not let the Japanese take the food first for this year.”

Lao Feng is a person who loves fame. This old guy doesn’t like to seek personal gain at all. If you give him money, he will use it all for economic construction.

The old man said that he wanted to be a person who had been recorded in history and had a good reputation, which was much better than having a sum of money.

Li Jian thought Lao Feng's idea was very good. If he was recorded in history, his descendants would all have supreme glory.

Just like Li Jian now, since fighting the Japanese in the Eighth Route Army, the old man worships his ancestors for nothing, and sometimes shows to his few old friends how amazing a grandson he has.

This is the contribution made by one person, which leads to the supreme honor of the entire family.

Li Jian doesn’t care so much about his reputation. He just likes money. The white ocean and the yellow gold bars are so exciting to be ripe!

"Don't worry, our food will definitely not be snatched by the Japanese this year. If anyone fucks me, he will give him a discount!"

The Third Young Master is an extremely domineering person, especially when he meets the Japanese, it is so difficult to make him take a step back.

Lao Feng felt much more relieved when he heard Li Jian say this. He didn't want all the financial and military expenditures in Dagu Town to be used for military purposes. How can these infrastructure be built?

Li Jian is also a person who has a long view. He knows that the economy must be done, and it must be done very well, otherwise where can the money be obtained for development?

Western countries have driven the development of comprehensive national strength because of their excellent economic development, and China cannot lag too much behind.

In Asia now, the Russians can be said to be the most powerful country, followed by the Japanese, and then China can be the turn.

However, the gap in the hierarchy caused by the three parties is particularly large. The Japanese never regarded China as their enemy because their enemies have never had three forces!

Britain, the United States, European powers, and Russians!

This is their biggest enemy. Otherwise, in such a large area as China, they would have kept the most elite Kanto Army in the Northeast, just to prevent the Russians from suddenly attacking a new attack!

Now both sides are fighting fiercely, Li Jian has to take advantage of this time to develop well, especially in farming.

Since ancient times, agriculture and sericulture have been nothing small. In this era of low labor productivity and low grain yields, we have to pay attention to the lives of these ordinary people!

"Let's go there and take a look. I heard that these ordinary people lack plowing oxen, so they have to go out and buy some oxen to come back another day!"

Li Jian pointed to the other and said to Lao Feng on the side.
Chapter completed!
