With the establishment of the bank, the Ye family has one more financing channel, although it is not very useful now, but with the strength of the Ye family, others will trust the Ye family more and more, and rest assured that the money will be deposited in the bank.

In addition, when people find the convenience of the bank, the more they use it, the more they will rely on it, and gradually form a habit.

Although the money village can't play a big role now, at least the Ye family has been asked to get a sum of money for emergency purposes.

After having the money, the Ye family began to organize a grain purchase brigade.

The grain purchasing brigade went deep into various counties, and at this time, many families had old grain to deal with, Ye Chen could not be new or old, as long as it was not broken.

Many of the family's warehouses have been full, and it just so happened that the Ye family's grain purchasing brigade came to buy it, and the Ye family's price was reasonable.

While sending a large number of teams to purchase grain, Ye Chen also came to his own land to take a look.

Patches of golden, wind-blown waves of wheat.

Ye Chen was in it, feeling that the world was too big, he was too small, and if he wanted to change this world, he had to work hard to make money and develop.

A survey showed that there was a big difference between the crops with and without fertilizer, up to 30 percent.

The difference of 30 percent is very terrible, if there is an extra 30 percent of hundreds of thousands of mu, then there will be hundreds of thousands of more quintals of grain a year.

More than 100,000 quintals of grain can feed an army of tens of thousands for a year, although the consumption in wartime is too great to be calculated according to the convention, but an extra few hundred thousand quintals of grain is very important to Ye Chen.

In the field, many people who knew Ye Chen greeted him one after another.

"Uncle Tian, this year's harvest is good." Ye Chen sat on the ridge and started chatting with an old man.

"This is thanks to the fertilizer of the young master, I have planted the field all my life, and I only know how to use fertilizer today." The old man looked at the ears of wheat that were bigger than in previous years, and his face was about to smile.

"Tian Laohan, how much land is used for fertilizer this year."

Hearing this, the old man sighed, put down the sickle in his hand, stood and took a breath, and then said to Ye Chen:

"Alas, I didn't know that this fertilizer was so easy to use, only half of the land was used this year."

"Well, that old man will have to use fertilizer on all his fields next year." Ye Chen threw away the wheat stalks in his hand and said to Tian Laohan.

"No, we will start making fertilizer as soon as the autumn harvest is over, and we will use it all next year." Tian Laohan crossed his waist with one hand and said very firmly.

The real benefits are there, the farmers don't need to say it at all, they are more anxious than anyone else, food is their lifeblood, and they have been working hard for a full bite of food all their lives.

Ye Chen looked at the wheat stalks on many farmlands, he had a lot of thoughts, he had seen the farmers of this era, he knew that he had to do something and do his best to change.

"Tian Laohan, this wheat straw can be used to make fertilizer, but it can't be wasted." Looking at the wheat straw on the ground, Ye Chen remembered that the burning of wheat straw in later generations caused a large area of air pollution.

Later generations will use chemical fertilizer, who will use this kind of green manure made by themselves.

"Yes, yes." Tian Laohan replied to Ye Chen with a smile.

Ye Chen chatted with him for a while, and then went to various Zhuangzi for a turn.

After some understanding, the tenants will basically have no problem with food and clothing after this year, in addition to the increase in grain income, the most important thing is the construction of the Ye family.

In the construction of the project, you can take care of the food, and you can get the salary, you can eat for a month if you do a month's work, plus eat at the Ye family, and the saved ones can eat for a month and a half.

The farmers can live and work in peace and contentment, of course Ye Chen is very happy, this is also one of his original intentions, the farmers live a good life, and they will naturally support him more.

When he returned to Ye's house, he first wanted to understand the situation of grain purchases.

"Wu Xian, how much grain has been purchased in the past few days." Not long after Ye Chen came back, he immediately found Wu Xian to understand the situation.

"Young family master, we have purchased more than 300,000 quintals in the past few days, but the person sent to Qingzhou to purchase grain has not received any news." Wu Xian briefly talked about the grain procurement situation in the past few days.

Ye Chen understood that what could be purchased was only in the past few days, and if it was not acquired in the future, it would not be possible to collect much, Liaodong was not a place with a large grain production, many of them were bitter cold places, and there was not much grain to buy.

The peasants usually did not have enough grain to eat, and it was impossible to sell it, and they would only sell it if the warehouses of the powerful landlords could not fit it.

The south is a place with a large grain production, this time the Ye family organized a lot of large grain buying brigades to go to the south to buy grain, Ye Chen knew that this world would soon change, and it would be even more difficult to buy grain at that time.

Now many families and businessmen still don't know that food will become a scarce item in the future, and they can't buy it with money, so Ye Chen wants to use these two years to hoard grain and grass as much as possible.

"You can't save money to buy grain, even if you sell some of your property, you have to buy as much grain as possible." Ye Chen was afraid that Wu Xie would buy less food because he had no money, so he needed to give Wu Xie a clear signal.

"Young family master, plus the ones we bought today, and our Ye family collected them ourselves, plus our previous grain storage, now our Ye family's grain is as much as three million quintals." Wu Xian's meaning was obvious, he wanted to persuade Ye Chen not to buy so much grain.

"Wu Xian, three million quintals of grain seems to be a lot, but it's not much, first of all, our Ye family has raised tens of thousands of people, the consumption is too great, and the most important thing is that troubled times are coming, and when the time comes, you may not be able to buy food if you have money." Ye Chen took a breath and said to Wu Xian faintly.

Wu Xian's heart trembled when he heard this, troubled times? Now this world is chaotic enough, but the young family master said that the troubled times are coming, so what he said is definitely not the current troubled times, will there be more troubled times?

"The young master trains soldiers and horses, hoards grain and grass, and recruits homeless people! Don't? Wu Xian didn't dare to think further when he thought of this, because if he thought about it further, it would be a rebellion.

On the surface of all kinds of signs, Ye Chen was preparing, preparing for war.

No matter what, Wu Xian can only support Ye Chen, because the fate of their family has been tied to the Ye family, even if they break away from the Ye family now, it will not be good, so they can only support the Ye family, as long as the Ye family can go on, then their family can survive, on the contrary, even if they leave the Ye family now, they will have no way out in the future, regardless of whether the Ye family is perishing or prospering.

"The young master can rest assured, and he will definitely go all out to buy food and complete the task of the young master."

What Ye Chen didn't know was that Wu Xian's mentality had changed at this time, Wu Xian was not a fool, but very smart, Ye Chen had been preparing, he didn't know, but he thought from a different angle before.

used to think from the perspective of a businessman, so he blamed Ye Chen for raising so many guard battalions, and the cost was many times higher than that of ordinary family guards; It is no wonder that Ye Chen actually bought a thousand war horses, these war horses eat not food and grass, but money.

Now that he knew that Ye Chen might rebel, or other plans, he had to think and act in accordance with this aspect.

Combat readiness has already put Wu Xian in the first position, and his ability is quite high, otherwise Ye Chen would not have let him be the chief manager all the time. Now that Wu's mentality has changed, the Ye family's progress in purchasing grain has been greatly accelerated.

Wu Xian sold some unimportant industries, such as some real estate, some redundant shops, the grain store and cloth store that were closed at the beginning, and some industries that accepted the Chen family and the Guo family, and there were many shops in it.

Now these redundant shops have been sold by Wu Xian in exchange for a cart of grain.

Wu Xian also used the Ye family's network to ask some families who had been doing business and had close relationships to help buy grain, and the progress of purchasing grain was very fast, and millions of quintals of grain were purchased in a short period of time.

It didn't stop until the warehouses that had already been built were filled, but what Wu Xian didn't know was that Ye Chen had built another batch of warehouses in Yuxian County, but now even if he knew, he would strongly support it.

The problem of grain and grass was solved, Ye Chen's heart was a lot more stable, don't look at the Ye family's food and grass now, but if there is really a war, the consumption is very amazing, now there are only five thousand soldiers and horses, and there is no large-scale outing, and the grain and grass consumed make Wu Xian feel unbearable.

If he goes out to fight in the future, the grain and grass consumed will be multiplied exponentially, but Ye Chen believes that at that time, not only the power of the Ye family, but also the power of the Ye family, he will definitely control some places as a place to raise soldiers.

Otherwise, relying on the Ye family alone, even if the family is ten times larger, it will not be able to support the future conquest.

After the autumn harvest is about to enter the winter, when the north will be covered in silver, many things can not be done, at least the construction of the project must be slowed down, but the outer wall of Yejiabao has been completed, the construction inside has been done a lot, and the workshop has also been built, and now it is to reclaim the wasteland to stop.

"This year's snow is estimated to be very heavy, and I'm afraid that many people will freeze to death again." Experienced people know that this winter is not going to be easy when they look at the sky.

However, the tenants and homeless people of the Ye family do not have to worry about this, the grain and quilts have been prepared, and the living places have been reinforced, and the Ye family also requires each family to cut a lot of firewood and put it at home.

These are all money, but the Ye family gave them for free, and the requirement was to help the Ye family work for free to pay off their debts in the coming year.

Compared to what Ye Chen gave, it is nothing for them to help the Ye family work for free, although they have no salary to work for the Ye family, they can eat a full meal.

At the moment, there is no salary for those displaced people, and those tenants can still get some wages for working for the Ye family.
