Chapter 293 Planning
Situ Changfeng came to develop the two states, naturally not only the military, Jiangnan and Lingnan, rich in sugarcane, are basically used to make sugar, and now the sugar circulating in the world is not only not good-looking, but also has a strong bitter taste.
Situ Changfeng has seen the sugar boiling technology from the Condor, not only cane sugar, but also orange sugar, and wheat sugar, of course, Situ Changfeng still remembers the rice candy in his childhood.
The price is twice as high as that of sugarcane on the market, so that the four Jiangdong families can buy it and plant it in large quantities, this kind of good thing, they are naturally very happy, and they think that Situ Changfeng repays their support. But this year there is no way to leave it for next year.
Situ Changfeng understood. Nowadays, sugarcane is transplanted to allow their well-developed root system to grow on their own, but Situ Changfeng remembers that when he was a child, his mother used to use the tips of sugarcane and bury them obliquely in the soil, and the next year they would grow shoots from the knots, and he believed that as long as enough tips were collected next year, they could be planted in large quantities in the two states.
The salt of Longyou Road, Li Shimin has made it out, although the output is not too high, but compared with before, it has been several times, and it is being sold to various places one after another, and the output will increase more next summer, but this is also very in line with Situ Changfeng's intentions, in his planning, the two states will be large salt users in the future.
Not only that, woolen clothes and cotton clothes in the northwest, if you want to go south, Yuezhou will also be a good transit station, which will bring a lot of taxes and people, so it is best to build Yuezhou into a commercial city, as for agriculture, it is enough, not to mention Langzhou, Langzhou has more flat land, which can completely feed Yuezhou.
Now that the two states are calm, and they are located inside Datang, the 13,000 elites don't know when they will come in handy, but the training has not stopped.
This is the case throughout the winter, for the sake of the lives of these 10,000 people, Situ Changfeng can be described as painstaking, and all the mountains in the two states have been cleared, but this time it is not killing, but hunting.
After all, a lot of training, you can't have enough meat, hunting can be trained, and you can get prey, at least the meat is basically self-sufficient.
There was also an unexpected harvest, and in a month, hundreds of wild boars and dozens of deer were captured alive, which were left behind and slowly domesticated. This is mainly due to the fact that there are too few folk pigs and there is no way to do it. But everything is getting better, that's how everyone feels.
Outside Yuezhou City, a martial arts academy is under construction, which is expected to accommodate hundreds of people, after all, Situ Changfeng didn't want to recruit too many people, next to the martial arts academy is a larger courtyard, this is the academy planned by Situ Changfeng.
The martial arts academy will only recruit talented people, this is for the task, and other children will enter the academy, intelligent children to learn literature, general civil and military practice, poor can only practice martial arts, or in the future to learn the craft of the Mo family, to be an ordinary craftsman.
The people of the two states already knew that their own governors would be allowed to enroll all children between the ages of seven and twelve for free after the spring ploughing, and some of them would be selected to teach in person, and the best ones would be accepted as disciples.
This not only made the people of the two states happy, but also aroused great enthusiasm, and even the big families were very interested, and there were a few people who didn't want their children to worship him, not to mention that Situ Chang's style and style were also said to be good.
Sent to the college, at worst, it can also let the child have more playmates, or make more friends, with the means of Situ Changfeng to cultivate talents, who knows how many talents will be produced in the future.
Therefore, many officials, landlords and wealthy businessmen, have already decided to send their children to the academy after the school starts.
In particular, Situ Changfeng has set aside a separate piece as a women's college, which will be taught by Zheng Liwan and others, which is also exciting. Datang has an open atmosphere, and it will not restrain his daughter too much, not to mention that it is not better to have the ability, as for what the academy learns, it is not the most important, at least it will not get worse.
Zheng Liwan was also very satisfied with Situ Changfeng's arrangement, only Gongsun Feiyan had to be the magistrate of Yuezhou, and Situ Changfeng could not let her go, and specially asked her to train two hundred people by herself to be responsible for the security of Yuezhou City.
The most important thing is that Situ Changfeng gave them more than 30 black-backed dogs, well-trained dogs, to help find lost belongings and missing children, and the effect was very good, so that the people affectionately called them 'paparazzi'.
Fan Lihua has lived in a cottage since she was a child, and she has no much interest in training children, Situ Changfeng didn't want her to be idle and bored, so she trained a 500 ambulance team, but this group of ambulance teams is all composed of soldiers.
Practicing soldiers, Fan Lihua is of course very interested, compared to Situ Changfeng's elite, the training intensity is not inferior, not to mention the practice of bone grafting and bandaging.
Situ Changfeng's current medical skills are not comparable to divine doctors, at least they are also famous doctors, and it is enough to take a certain amount of time to guide.
Although the people of the two states have had a difficult time this year, the winter has finally passed.
In February, the spring breeze is like scissors, spring returns to the earth, everything recovers, the land begins to thaw, and everyone gets busy.
Spring is the most important season, including 10,000 elites, all of whom stopped training and went to farming.
From the river, the lake, the most fertile, it is foreseeable, there will be a good harvest this year, the key is to clean up the river, the lake, and dig a lot of new canals, this year there will be no worries about flooding.
10,000 acres of fish ponds, planted with lotus roots, began to drain, the water of Dongting Lake was introduced, and the fish caught in the future will be sent in as soon as possible, as fish species, I believe that the second half of the year will be a harvest season.
The first thing to be planted in the two states was not grain, but all kinds of vegetables collected in one winter, and then fruit trees, and thousands of old farmers began to transplant fruit trees, and all the cut branches were planted.
Many plants can be inserted with branches, but Situ Changfeng is not clear, but if all the branches are inserted, he can always survive a lot.
In the future, as long as you take care of it carefully, after a few years, the whole Yuezhou will be fragrant with fruit trees, as for the poor fruit trees, grafting is, although Situ Changfeng doesn't know how to get it, but just experiment more.
Fruit is the biggest source of money that Situ Changfeng prepared for the development of the two states, and breeding must be ranked behind, after all, animals need young seeds, which cannot be formed too large soon, and fruit trees as long as they are planted constantly.
Although there is no medicine in these years, there are few insect infestations, and if you raise poultry in the orchard, you can not only repel insects and birds, but also fertilize the land.
Raising chickens in orchards, free-range pigs, ducks and geese in fish ponds, all of which are in the plan, Situ Changfeng is confident that within five years, he will build a wealthy two states and let the people live a well-off life.
