Chang Shide is half lying on the bed. () After drinking a little decanting soup, although people are dizzy, they are very happy. was about to go to bed, only to see Wenxiu quietly walking into the house, wearing only a close-fitting gown, her hair bun untied and combed behind, full of peach blossoms, and apricot eyes with spring. Chang Shide was stunned for a while, and he didn't know what he was doing with this appearance.

I saw Wenxiu beat Wanfu like a woman, and whispered: "Wenxiu waits for the master to go to bed." As he spoke, he came up to untie his wide clothes, and a pair of soft little hands gently rubbed on him, and called softly: "Master-"

Chang Shide was stunned for about five seconds, and suddenly the wine in his whole body was scattered from his pores, and a chill rushed to his head from his heels, and a layer of goosebumps suddenly appeared all over his body.

"No—" He let out a mournful cry, quickly pushed Wenxiu away, and rolled off the bed. Mamma Mia, what era is this, the maid sexually harassed the master - if he was sexually harassed by the maid, it would be forgotten, he was actually a man - no matter how beautiful Wenxiu was, he was still a man.

This small commotion caused chaos. Zhou Shizhai broke into the door at the first time, and when he saw this scene, the dart master's face also changed greatly, and he hurriedly said: "Master, please use it slowly." He bowed his head and walked out.

"No, Lao Zhou, you listen to my explanation-" Chang Shide didn't even wear shoes, so he hurriedly chased out, outside Li Biao was probing his brain, and a few dart masters gathered in the yard, holding knives and sticks.

"What do you see? Go back! Zhou Shizhai waved his hand impatiently, and hurriedly said to the disheveled Chang Shide, "Chief Chang, you are so unsightly-"

"Yes, yes, I see." He hurried back to put on his shoes.

Wen Tong also came out here, he was drafting a report on improving sugar production under the lamp, and when he heard the noise, he didn't understand what was going on, but he saw Wen Xiu disheveled, and he came out of Chang Shide's house aggrievedly, he suddenly misunderstood, and his face sank:

"Chang, I usually know that you are attentive, but I didn't expect you to have this habit!" Wen Tong doesn't discriminate against GAY, but he despises people who eat both men and women for physical pleasure.

"Nothing!" Chang Shide was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, and he had the heart to seek death. It's obvious that this dead shemale is trying to harass him, why does everyone think that he is plotting against other people's chrysanthemums?

"Lao Wen, you have to believe our revolutionary comrades. You won't believe me, we're in a dormitory in Lingaoke! You know what kind of person I am! ”

"It's hard to say, once dragged away from the collective, many of people's ugly natures will burst out."

"I'm wronged-" Chang Shide pointed to the heavens and the earth, and he was both cursing and explaining, so that Wen Tong could barely believe that it was Wen Xiu who harassed him. At this time, Hou Liao Dahua came, and Chang Shide was depressed and carried the black pot in vain, and couldn't help but complain about Liao Dahua. Even scolded Guo Yi - why did they make a rabbit to serve them.

Liao Dahua smiled: "Master Chang doesn't need to be angry. That's what the boys would be wrong about. They are children who specialize in serving the uncle, serving tea and living during the day, and serving as concubines and sleeping at night. Yesterday, the shopkeeper said not to buy a maid, and it was convenient to use a servant on the journey, so there was a misunderstanding on this. Since the master didn't mean that, I reprimanded them well. ”

"What? And this kind of thing? Chang Shide suddenly had a shocking subversion of the ancients' concept of sexuality.

"Usually. Every time the sour talents carry a book, sword and piano case to study abroad, they bring a little servant with them, one is to go out to make it convenient, and the other is to use it to extinguish the fire at night if they can't bear it. The officials in the court also have special reserves, and some of them are intimate, and they are more favored than concubines. ”

"I'm Kao, what kind of society is this!" Chang Shide couldn't help but scold.

Liao Dahua only smiled on the side, knowing that Wenxiu's heart to invite pets was too strong, so he came to a "self-recommended pillow seat", which was a slap on the horse's feet. Both of them don't seem to be good men. I thought about finding a few maids to come over quickly.

The turmoil of the night passed. Originally, Chang Shide was still a little suspicious. I am afraid that my majestic image will be ridiculed. Later, I found out that the natives had no interest in gossiping about this matter at all, and even Wenxiu came to him the next day as usual to bring him facial cleanser. Probably as Liao Dahua said: This kind of thing is not the same thing at all.

The next day, the two continued to sit in a sedan chair, protected by a cadre from the Qiwei Dart Bureau, and spent almost half a month inspecting the various sugarcane farms and sugar houses under their names. I got a preliminary understanding of the situation. During the journey, the journey was tiring, and there was no need to go into detail, and there were several robbers blocking the road, but fortunately, there were powerful dart guards and some of them were over.

The situation of each Zhuangzi and Tangliao is much the same, some still leave a few long-term workers, and some simply go to the empty building. Wen Tong now knows about the sugar production in Leizhou: it is a typical combination of Zhuangliao and Liao. There is no soil pond liao that is purely based on processing. All of them were set up by a sugarcane farmer or landlord with a large number of sugarcane fields, and they were all set up by a sugarcane farmer who was attached to the sugarcane farm, and there were also sugarcane farmers who jointly set up a sugarcane farm. Tutangliao mainly processes sugarcane produced in its own fields. Take into account external processing. The utilization rate of the equipment is very low, so all of them are small in scale and poorly equipped.

Sugarcane planting is not a common tenant system in rural areas, and small plots of land are planted and harvested by the sugarcane farmers themselves, and a few short-term workers are hired when the farm is busy; The large pieces were completely planted and managed by long-term laborers hired by the landlords, and there was already a rudimentary form of agricultural hired labor.

Therefore, once the land changes hands, all the labor force on the land disappears, which is completely different from changing landlords and tenants under the general tenancy system. This places an urgent need for a supplementary workforce.

On this day, the group returned to Xu Wen's Zhuangzi. It just so happened that Zhang Xin, as the liaison officer of Guangzhou Station, also came to Xu Wen. As the main seller of Leizhou white sugar in the future, Guangzhou Station also attaches great importance to this.

According to the proposal of the Guangzhou station and the approval of the executive committee, Wen Tong and Chang Shide officially established the Leizhou Sugar Company in Xuwen. The capital for the establishment of the sugar company was transferred by the Guangzhou Railway Station. The sugar cane village outside Xuwen City will serve as the company's headquarters. Wen Tong Jihua conducted a sugar industry improvement pilot in Xuwen.

"Can you make sugar?" Zhang Xin was very concerned about this question and asked again and again.

"No problem, I can produce more white sugar than any in Guangdong." Wen Tong is very confident in this, "But if we want to have an advantage in price, it depends on whether the machinery department has a way to help us build equipment." ”

"There are Englishmen who have recently arrived in Guangzhou." Zhang Xin told him a message, "They are very careful and are looking to buy goods, and sugar is also a big item." If the sugar can be produced before April, it will not be a problem to sell twenty or thirty tons. ”

"Yes. However, I want the Guangzhou station to give me enough manpower. "It's difficult to replenish the labor force locally. ”

"How many people?"

"At least three hundred." In Wen Tong's Jihua book, this group of people will be the first workers on sugar cane farms and sugar mills. Each Zhuangzi had to be supplemented with at least twenty or so laborers, and those with sugar liao had to have more.

"Do you want to strengthen the labor force?"

"Women and children too. This can bind young adults. Besides, the peasant women in Guangdong and Fujian are very capable and have good physical strength, and I don't think they are worse than men. By the way, find about ten more people who have experience in cattle raising. ”

"Okay. You can give you 500 people. Zhang Xin agreed. Due to the continuous progress of immigration work, there has been a gap in Lingao's receiving capacity. A purification cycle is 40 days, and the quarantine camp in Lingao can only accommodate about 400 people at a time. Many of the immigrants who had already been recruited had to be resettled in Guangzhou and wait for shipment. To this end, the Guangzhou station set up a village on the outskirts of the city that resembled a quarantine zone, where some initial "purification" work was carried out. There are now more than 1,000 people stranded in the camp, and in order to prevent the local government from suspecting, Guo Yi is already trying to send them away as soon as possible.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to accept five hundred." Wen Tong said, "Let's start with three hundred." There are so many things to do here, and I want to ask for some more cadres from Lingao. ”

"It's hard for cadres." Zhang Xin said, "The people who rise up are very good, you can choose some backbones from among them to become military cadres." Seeing Wen Tong's stunned expression, Zhang Xin added: "This place in Leizhou is very chaotic, you are such a big sugar factory owner, there will naturally be heroes from all walks of life at that time, needless to say, bandits, I am afraid it will be a troublesome matter for the local tyrants to get involved." To protect one's person and property, one must be armed. Let's pull a militia up first. Weapons will be replenished for you from Lingao. ”

"Okay." Wen Tong thought that this matter would be left to Chang Shide - anyway, he would play tricks.

"I plan to start a sugarcane combination here in Xuwen first, and then expand to places like Haikang and Suixi."

"Do you want to continue to buy sugar cane fields to expand plantations?"

"I want to start a plantation." Wen Tong said, "At present, the business model here is still dominated by small-scale farmers, and the planting and management level are too backward. ”

During the half-month trip, Wen Tong had a good idea of the sugarcane cultivation here. The cultivation of cash crops under the small-scale peasant economy is very arbitrary: there are varieties of fruit cane and sugar cane, and as for field management, some can be seen to be very careful, while others are so-so, and they are completely dependent on the sky. There are people growing sugarcane even in places that are not suitable for growing sugarcane......

In the case of a cash crop such as sugar cane, the most prosperous business model is naturally a large-scale plantation: these small plots of land are combined to form a large sugar cane plantation. Whether it was hired or slavery. The production efficiency is much higher than that of today's smallholder farming.

But acquiring land from sugar cane farmers is not easy. Sugarcane farmers rarely go bankrupt or have trouble doing business, and even if they pay the frighteningly high interest rate, it is still profitable to grow sugarcane fields. In the absence of natural and man-made disasters, it is difficult to annex land in pieces. Unless the traverser manipulates the price of sugar, forces all these small farmers to go bankrupt, and then buys them one by one. Wen Tong didn't agree with this plan, not because he had much kindness, but because he felt that the crossing group didn't have the ability.

"My idea is to do a sugar cane combination." Wen Tong came up with his plan: to organize all the growers who produce the same crop, and under their auspices, they will uniformly guide the use of improved seeds, purchase fertilizers, and make sugarcane in a unified way and sell them in a unified manner. Reduce costs and increase revenue. Wen Tong estimates that the program will attract many small growers.

"There will definitely not be many results in the first year of this program, but after a long time, as soon as the benefits come out, farmers are naturally willing to participate. There is no way, we are not the government that cannot be forced, only the word-of-mouth benefits of KAO can achieve the goal. ”

"Then you have to take root in Leizhou." Zhang Xin looked at his huge jihua, "This jihua will not produce benefits in three or five years, just convince the farmers of this family, and the dividends after the harvest...... You have to have a good group of people to help you. ”

"It's okay to be rooted? Enjoy the days of the big landlords. Wen Tong is very interested in his own career, "The managers here are Jishu personnel, I applied to the Education Committee for some, and I can match a few with a few." If it's not enough, I'm going to do my own training. As for convincing small farmers to join, they can persuade as much as they can. After three or five years, if everything goes well, I will be the largest sugar supplier in Leizhou, and the sugar will be abundant and good, and then there will be a dumping at a lower price, and the purchase price in the market will be beaten to a pulp, and all the people who refuse to join the agricultural cooperative system will make them bankrupt, and I will even buy the people and the land. ”

Zhang Xin nodded again and again, he couldn't imagine that a Jishu person like Wen Tong could use such vicious methods.

"If you need anything, just open your mouth, and Guangzhou Station will definitely cooperate well."

"We're just a sugar factory, we don't have intelligence officers or anything like that, but I'm curious to know the specifics of Hai'an Street, which the locals call 'Sweet Harbor'. The sugar is exported from here, and there are many sugar shops on the street. Sooner or later, these merchants from Chaoshan and Shantou will be our opponents—"

"It's good to say, we'll arrange someone to go undercover locally. At that time, if you really can't do it by normal means, you will be able to do something abnormal. The guys from the Special Reconnaissance Team have itchy forehands. ”

"Hehe, it's better not to. However, we have limited time, so we can't get tired of fighting any business wars, and it's better to be quick and messy. ”

The two sides agreed on a series of contact methods, because Leizhou is not an official dispatch station, only a second-level base, there is no radio distribution at present, and the contact with Lingao mainly uses carrier pigeons as a tool. In addition to the use of carrier pigeons, the connection with Guangzhou can also be carried out by using the dart road of the Qiwei Dart Bureau. According to the instructions of the Executive Committee, it is not easy to send people directly across the sea to contact us unless absolutely necessary -- the fewer direct contacts between the two sides, the better.

The Executive Committee also has a line of salt merchant Liu Gang in Leizhou, who lives in Haikang County, but after consideration, the Executive Committee decided that the two sides should contact each other on a single line and avoid contact. Liu Gang is an important channel for them to smuggle smuggled salt to the mainland, and it is necessary to focus on protecting it
