Chapter 65: Liu Duofu's Hope
It's just that Liu Duofu has another layer of identity while farming, that is, the village chief of Baihe Village. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Like other villages in Daming, Baihe Village is also a new village for immigrants. Since its establishment, it has only been about a year.
There are more than 20 families in the village, more than 10 families of naturalized people, 6 or 7 families of Chinese, and a few families of Nanyang indigenous immigrants.
The Chinese have always been kind and easy to get along with. The naturalized people were also new to the tribal system, relatively simple and welcoming. And those Nanyang natives are also honest people, and before they came, they had been living with the Chinese, and they admired Chinese culture.
Therefore, the folk customs of the whole village are relatively simple and easy to manage.
Of course, this is also Daming's intentional arrangement. Because Mingjing City, Linhai Province, and Northern Province are the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, there must be no chaos. Therefore, when the Ming Dynasty established the village, it also intended to arrange immigrants with good character in these three places.
Like Baihe Village, where Liu Duofu is located, it is in the Northern Province. It is also not far from the capital city of Zhengtu. This is exactly what it is.
At this time, the golden rice fields fluctuate with the wind, falling and falling. Like the waves of the sea, it sets off layers of waves. The full ears of rice bent the stalks.
Seeing this, Liu Duofu grinned.
Because he knows that it will be another good year.
It's just that his family is not here, and they can't experience the joy of the harvest. Let him feel a little regretful!
"If only the Ming Dynasty could drive away the Tartar Emperor and ask Ding Zhongyuan!" , he couldn't help but think. Because the Ming Dynasty is not only the Han people, but also very sympathetic to the people. In such a country, there is no need to worry about food and clothing.
This is simply the Datong society sung by storytellers in the city!
And in his opinion, Daming has the strength to ask the Central Plains!
Like that musket, it can knock people down from a distance of 100 meters. Like that artillery, no matter how thick the walls are, they can be blown down. And the iron ship that spewed black smoke, like a moving hill. At sea, there is basically no one to beat. There is also the big iron bird that flies into the sky, and it is not a dream to soar for nine days.
He still remembers the first time he saw these things, his face was terrified. But now, he only has pride in his heart, proud of the strength of Daming.
But this day shouldn't be too long!
Because he heard the mayor of the nearby township say that the Ming Dynasty needs the population the most. Especially those hard-working and capable Chinese. Although there are also reasons for the same kind of text, this cannot be said on the surface. Otherwise, there is a high risk of getting into a lawsuit of racial discrimination.
This is also what Da Ming admires the most, no matter who he is, he treats everyone equally, and everyone is equal. Unlike the Manchu Qing, except for the Manchu people, who are their own people, everyone else is a slave.
Although when it comes to practice, it is difficult to do it equally. But at least on the official side, on the bright side, there is no difference or discrimination.
It's just that almost all the Chinese in Nanyang are here now, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty has always imposed a sea ban and controlled the population very strictly. The Tartar Emperor would rather his subjects starve to death in the land than let them find a way to survive elsewhere.
Anyway, only Manchu people are human beings, and they, the Han slaves, and the Tartar emperors, will not care.
This kind of strict population policy is completely contrary to the Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, it is foreseeable that in the near future, there will be a war between the Ming and the Manchu Qing.
At that time, when the township chief analyzed, he was determined. Infected by it, he also felt that there would be such a day. After all, the township chief is an honor student in a civilized school, and his grades are beyond the reach of many people. Usually, the policy of the Ming Dynasty is also analyzed reasonably, and the head is the way.
In addition, Liu Duofu is also very eager for this day in his heart, so he is convinced.
When the time comes, his parents and brothers and sisters can come to Daming. No more food and clothing. As long as you are willing to work, everyone can live a heavenly life.
Thinking of this, his heart was full of fire. I thought to myself, if I recruit soldiers at that time, I will also sign up for the army.
After all, the welfare of the People's Army is so high, and he is also very envious in his heart. And the family has become a military family, and they don't even have to pay rent.
Last time, it was because he was holding Lao Huang Li and thought that a good man should not be a soldier. In addition, I don't know much about Daming, so I have doubts, so I missed it. But after staying in Daming for so long, his mind has changed. Young people! Strong receptivity, the head always has to turn faster.
Just as he was thinking about this, a human voice suddenly came from behind him. Then he listened: "Village Chief Liu, why did you come here?" It's easy for us to find! ”。
When I turned around, it was the township chief.
And it's not just the township chief who came. Behind him, there were several white and pure men. Wearing the white short-sleeved shirt often worn by Ming officials, he was smiling and looked very kind.
However, Liu Duofu didn't dare to slack off, and immediately ran to the men, and said a little crampedly: "Gao-Gao-Gao, Mayor Gao!" ”。 I can't even speak.
At that time, he had just come out of the Civilization School, and he was assigned to Zhengtu Town, and he had seen Gao Ming. So I recognized it at the first time.
However, the township chief on the side corrected with a smile: "Hey! Village Chief Liu, you are all old yellow calendars. Now Mayor Gao is already Governor Gao! ”。
As he spoke, he introduced the latest decree of the Ming Dynasty. And also told him the purpose of the governor's coming.
It turned out that a bumper harvest was approaching. The Ministry of Industry of the Ming Dynasty also created a batch of new agricultural tools in due course. In order to promote and test the practical effect, the governor came to Baihe Village together with the Ministry of Industry and the Department of Agriculture.
As he spoke, the technician on the side had already taken out the newly developed harvesting tool. In appearance, it resembles a fishing rod. It's just that one end is the controller and the other end is the rotating gear.
When harvesting, the gears can be kept running as long as the bearings on the manipulator are constantly pulled. Save time and effort.
So under the personal operation of the technician, it didn't take long for a large area of rice fields to be cut. After that, Liu Duofu was also eager to try, and with the help of technicians, he learned clumsily.
As a farmer, it didn't take him much time to learn decently.
Seeing this, the governor and his entourage were very satisfied. Although this is only the most rudimentary harvester, it still uses manpower. But compared to the original scythe, it is undoubtedly a qualitative leap. And it is easy to learn, and it is much easier to promote.
Moreover, the agricultural tools of the Ming Dynasty will definitely not stop there. When the conditions are good in the future, a large harvester will be developed, which will be operated purely mechanically and completely liberate manpower.
Seeing the governor and his entourage laughing, Liu Duofu also laughed happily.
He believes that as long as he follows Daming, the days will become more and more promising.
