The growth of spring wheat in Guanzhong is very good, judging from the heading situation, it can fully meet Sun Xiangfu's expectations, and it will be harvested almost after waiting for about a month.

Fortunately, due to the transfer of industry, the managers of various workshops in Xingfu Village have gone to the factories in Weinan to work as factory directors and chief engineers, and the village will not be full of people as before, which is more like a rural village.

In late April, the weather in Guanzhong was already very warm, even a little hot, and the ice and snow had already melted in Shanyang, Sun Xiangfu made follow-up arrangements for Shanyang's spring ploughing to Chu Suiliang, and after Sun Deshou sent a long letter, he organized the skilled farmers in the village to plant cauliflower.

The Wang family sent a lot of skilled farmers to learn planting, there were two or three hundred people, all of them were the children of the Wang family, Wang An, who was in charge of the affairs, personally attended, recorded all the planting details with pen and ink, recently, he was eager to block the entire village, not allowing outsiders to enter.

"How many acres of land does your Wang family still have in Guanzhong?"

"About 20,000 acres, however, the good land that can keep the land moist and loose all the time is estimated to be only 3,000 acres, except for leaving these 3,000 acres to grow cauliflower, and the excess land, we will sell it as soon as possible."

"Five surnames and seven families, the reason why they can become the world's first-class top families really makes sense, when did your family start to realize that the land in Guannai is no longer important?"

Although he received a compliment, Wang An's face did not show any smugness, but he replied honestly, "After Shanyang developed under the noses of the head of the family and the young master. ”

This answer is indeed not adulterated at all, and the level of analysis of the problem by the think tanks of the five surnames and seven families is far from being comparable to that of some small and medium-sized families, and they can always focus on the most profitable livelihood and look for its essence. If you want to say what is the most profitable thing in the past two years, it is definitely not the spice field planted by the Wang family, because although those spices initially earned millions of profits for the Wang family, they could not be digested in the market due to too much production, which led to the price falling off a cliff later, making its overall profit not reach 10 million.

And Shanyang, due to the prosperity of commerce, the annual tax revenue alone is one or two million, so how much money Sun Xiangfu and his entire interest group have made in Shanyang cannot be calculated at all, anyway, it is definitely more than 10 million.

Because, not to mention the cash profit, the value of his factories, properties, shops, and fixed assets in Shanyang alone exceeds 10 million yuan.

Therefore, what the five surnamed Qi families want very much now is that they also have a city like Shanyang in the Northland.

After all, they can't look down on the profits of the field, even if it is like the wheat field planted by Sun Xiangfu, how much is it worth? It's not consistent, planting these fields requires manpower, the cycle is slow, and it is already like a chicken rib.

Compared with farming, business is more reliable, the Wang family's industry in Shanyang accounts for less than one-tenth of the overall industry in Shanyang, and most of them are from Sun Xiangfu's hands, but this business share has made their annual income more than two million.

Now, although they have given up most of the land in the Guannei, but the land around Dingxiang is all owned by their Wang family, and the future industry of Dingxiang City, under the direct or indirect management of his Wang family, is likely to exceed fifty percent, which is the key city for the next development of the Northland, its economy, it is very likely to surpass Shanyang, its profitability, not to mention surpassing Shanyang, as long as it can be similar to Shanyang, then the income of the Wang family is several times higher than continuing to farm in the Guannei.

After all, although they can only plant one season a year on the land around Dingxiang City, the planting area has doubled, and the output is higher than that of the fields in the Guannai, as long as they spend some effort on reclaiming the land at the beginning, in the future, the agricultural output will not be worse than when they planted the fields in the Guannai, and the income from the commercial and fixed assets will all be added.

As long as the family can grow, they don't mind others calling them Taiyuan Wang, or Dingxiang Wang.

As for the others, in fact, they also have the same calculation as the Wang family, they want to copy the model of Shanyang, and develop a new base with super commercial profitability and relatively more concentrated and easy management of cultivated land.

It's ridiculous that those small and medium-sized families who are still holding on to one place in the Guannai, the local is strong, and they are still eating a lot of land, and when they know that this year and next year, the price of grain may fall to the point that the bucket of rice will only be sold for four or five yuan, I don't know if they will spurt blood.

Because, even if they grow more than four stones of grain on one acre of land, they can only sell it for two or three hundred dollars, and even if two young and strong hired workers desperately plant a hundred acres of land for them, it is only worth about 20 yuan, which has not made these two people go to Weinan to work and earn much, after all, a person who goes to Weinan to work, eats, drinks, and stays, and has an income of more than ten yuan a year.

Farming, on the other hand, consumes their grains, rations, farming tools, etc., which will cause them to have a feeling of getting poorer and poorer the more they plant, because even the agricultural output of the later generations, the income of the people who farm the fields is not comparable to that of the people who go out to work, let alone this period.

"If their Wang family only grows 3,000 acres of cauliflower, I'm afraid they won't be able to meet the needs of the Chang'an market! Enjoy happiness, in our village, do you want to have a variety of points? Sun Dali carried two large leaky kettles, followed Sun Xiangfu to water, and interjected a sentence in a timely manner.

Hearing this, Wang An and Sun Xiangfu both had a smile on the corner of their mouths, if Sun Dali's brain was so good and he could see the origin of the matter clearly, he would not have been reduced to a supporting role in the first place.

"What are you laughing at?"

"People."

"People? Me? ”

Sun Dali was a little inexplicable, why did these two laugh at themselves together, did they say something ridiculous?

"No, I mean, there aren't enough people who grow cauliflower."

The skilled farmers in Xingfu Village, who have adapted to Sun Xiangfu's farming requirements, are basically relatives of the guards' families, but there are only one or two hundred people, and the people who were brought over by Wang to learn to plant cauliflower are only two or three hundred people, with the difficulty of planting cauliflower, in the first year, he was not sure that one person could take care of more than ten acres of vegetable fields, and with the strength of the Wang family, planting 3,000 mu is already the limit, and Happy Village, even if it only plants 2,000 mu, it is also difficult.

Therefore, in fact, what is lacking is never the field, nor is it the market demand, just the planting manpower, of course, they are not entangled in how much to plant, the reason why Sun Xiangfu is not entangled is that the yield of this thing is not high, and in the case of lack of food in Guanzhong this year, it is not suitable for a variety of people. The reason why Wang An is not entangled is that scarcity is expensive, and the less it is produced, the more expensive it will be when it is sold to the market.

"Speaking of people, there is something I have to tell you, a new group of children in our village have also grown up, more than 50 of them are in their teens, and they have learned to read and write, do you want them to study with the children of the peasant sect?"

There are only more than 40 original residents of Xingfu Village, including the families of the guards, it has reached nearly 400 households.

Sun Dali mentioned this stubble, the familiar farmers in the village all raised their heads, with eager eyes at Sun Xiangfu, what the core children of the farmer learned, they don't know much, they didn't read when they were young, after they got older, their thinking was rigid, at most they could do things according to instructions, but the children were different, after they came to Happy Village a few years ago, they received a good basic education, and their brains were smart, maybe they could become great talents in the future.

"Okay! When the army marched north, I took them to Shanyang. ”

Li Shimin's strategic plan has been formulated, in fact, now a sergeant equipment, has been almost manufactured, Longshouyuan school, all the sergeants are in the distribution of new equipment, are in the final adaptability training, and after the wheat is ripe and harvested next month, it is the day when the army swears to leave, when the time comes, Sun Xiangfu will go north to Shanyang with Li Shimin, of course, in the end, Li Shimin will go to the front, and Sun Xiangfu is in Shanyang to dispatch grain and grass supplies and do logistics work.

"Uh, that, I don't know if my Wang family's children can enter the farming gate to study and learn some farming techniques from Sun Dudu?"

Wang An is very calm and calm in what he does, and he doesn't know what he has experienced at a young age, but when it comes to letting the children of the Wang family enter the farm to study, his expression and face are solemn, as if this is a big deal.

The ancients regarded the inheritance of family learning more seriously, not the good of the family, or the formal inheritance of master and apprentice, generally will not let people get touched by half a point, Nongmen, is currently one of the most advanced schools in the Tang Dynasty, although he teaches and studies planting technology, but let no one in the whole country dare to despise it, including the emperor and their five surnames and seven families, all forces, almost to learn the technology of farming, as the highest level of task, however, Wang An did not expect that this task, may be easily completed by him.

"There's nothing you can't do, but you have to wait a few days, after I go back to Shanyang this time, I will establish an agricultural college in Shanyang, and carry forward the technical knowledge of my agricultural family.

"Ah, this ······"

Wang An was a little stunned, things were too different from what he imagined, he was ready for Sun Xiangfu's refusal, what kind of conditions would he offer, but Sun Xiangfu actually put on an attitude of wishing they would go to learn from more people, this is too undeserved!

"I don't know, what does my Wang family have to pay to study in the Agricultural College?"

The past thinking made Wang An feel that no one would do anything that was not beneficial, so even if Sun Xiangfu gave such a gesture, Wang An decided to ask clearly.

"Well, just pay the tuition, but if a big family like the Wang family can directly fund me to build the Agricultural College, it will be even better, and when the time comes, I will definitely give priority to admitting your Wang children."

Since the Wang family took the initiative to send it to the door, Sun Xiangfu felt that it was better to make some requests, so as not to make him feel unreal and worried.

"Is Sun Dudu's words true? If it's just this requirement, you don't need to report to the head of the family, you can make a decision, how big the college you want, just say, the cost of construction, my Wang family will bear it. ”

"Really, really, then I'll give you drawings when I turn around?"

"No problem, it's better to repair it luxuriously and spaciously······"

Chatting and chatting, Sun Xiangfu won an academy for nothing, don't be too happy, if you don't vigorously promote agricultural teaching and scientific planting, how can you meet the needs of agriculture in the new era of Datang! This kind of thing that he himself is already desperate to do, and it is of course better to have a big boss to contribute money and effort for him.
