"It's raining, it's raining!"

The hungry people who opened up the famine cheered enthusiastically.

On the day of the Qingming Festival, the first spring rain fell on the grassland, for the spring rain that was not coming for a long time, the people were very troubled, if it did not rain to plant the land would be extremely difficult, looking at the rain that was sprinkled, the farmers had hope.

The light rain is falling, the moisturizing things are silent, the grassland is full of cheers, the land is the foundation of the peasants' survival, and without water it is impossible to farm, all these are the great creations of the Creator.

He Tianci rode on a horse, listened to the cheers from the hungry people's huts on the roadside from time to time, smelled the fragrant smell of rain, and was very happy, he knew that the peasants were eager for land, and only by distributing these lands to the peasants could the grassland have better development.

"Lord Guard, let's go back! It's raining! Su Houwen, who was walking with He Tianci, wiped the rainwater on his face.

"Haha" He Tianci laughed and said: "Okay, it's raining, when it rains, farmers have hope, the bigger the better, I hope this year is a bumper harvest year." ”

Entering the cultivated land on the edge of the city, it is not convenient to walk on horseback, this wasteland used to be a piece of horse raising, and it was also easy to find a stake to tie the horse, He Tianci tied the horse to the horse stake, and quickly shuttled through the wasteland, Su Houwen behind was a little old after all, and some couldn't keep up, gasping and saying: "Command, you said that you will divide these lands for free, is this too much of a loss." ”

"Only by dividing the fields can we arouse the enthusiasm of these hungry people, and when they have the fields and some spare money in their hands, they will build houses and buy all kinds of things, and these 100,000 people will be settled in and around the city of Taonan. The time for the development of Taonan Fucheng in the future will be greatly shortened. He Tianci looked back while savoring the joy of the peasants.

"In order to fill the stomachs of these hungry people and resettle them, even if they return the money for food and farm tools later, the adults will still lose money on the whole. It is estimated that there is a loss of one million taels of silver. Su Houwen, as the direct person in charge of this immigration, cleared the accounts in the middle.

"Doing business, there are profits and losses, and if you get such a big territory as Dongmeng, it's nothing to pay millions of taels of silver." What really makes He Tianci happy is not to get these places, but to be able to successfully resettle so many hungry people, so that the sparse situation in Dongmeng can really be broken, and it is said that talent is the greatest productive force in society.

The infusion of 200,000 people into Dongmeng will inevitably bring some problems to Dongmeng. The injection of population will also make the rapid rise of Dongmeng, recalling this experience, first to fight the princes of Dongmeng, to incorporate the militia, and then to divide the land, no matter how He Tianci thinks about it, this is a bit like cracking down on the local tyrants to divide the land.

It's just that He Tianci put this environment smaller, and the princes of Dongmeng are also big landlords and big tyrants, and they can accept so many refugees this year. It was indeed thanks to the division of the land of those Mongolian kings, but I didn't expect to go to the steppe to deal with Tao Ketao for two years. In the end, however, Tauktau led the prince to rebel and fulfilled him, giving him a justifiable excuse to divide the land of the Mongol princes.

The Mongolian princes rebelled and opened up the road for He Tianci to divide the land, since they opened the way for us, then the landlord will divide the land into the end. He Tianci smiled, "Some money." We are willing to make money, it doesn't matter if some money is lost, we can save more people, and have peace of mind, Brother Mengde. You have been able to arrange so many people this time, and you have made a great contribution. ”

Su Houwen's ability to deal with affairs is indeed very strong, compared to Taonan's experience in dealing with immigrants, Tongliao is the first time that the eldest girl has been on the sedan chair, but Su Houwen has handled the immigration work very successfully, except for the beginning when the hungry people poured in, there was some confusion, and now he has dispatched food, farm tools, built refugee sheds, and even prepared winter clothes.

Everything was well organized, and the occasional hiccup didn't hurt.

"If it weren't for the town guard to make the adults run around, and open up the money and relationships, there would be no way to do it." Su Houwen stroked his beard and hurriedly said. He Tianci usually does not participate in government affairs, but it does not mean that He Tianci has no opinions, when he really encounters something, he is unambiguous, and millions of silver dollars are spent without even blinking his eyes, and this bearing alone is not comparable to ordinary people. Those who read poetry and books and shout for the country and the people all day long, if they really face the same choice as He Tianci, I am afraid that most of them will be another result.

"You scholars don't have a saying, if you are poor, you will be good to yourself, and if you are good, you will help the world, I He Tianci never thought that I was a righteous gentleman, and I would do a few things if I had some ability, since I became an official, I would not be able to mess around, leave something for future generations, and when I am old in the future, I will not be poked in the backbone by those grandchildren."

This is not just what he says, He Tianci does think so in his heart, although he tried his best to suppress Zhang Zuolin when he came to this era, but it is difficult to hide He Tianci's admiration for this Hu Shuai, even Zhang Zuolin, a bearded bandit, can build the Northeast so well, and the immigration alone will immigrate nearly 10 million.

Compared with Zhang Zuolin's exploits in the parallel world, He Tianci knows that he still has a long way to go, but Dongmeng accepted 200,000 immigrants in the first year, which is also good, after all, this is just the beginning, and a good start is half the success.

He Tianci looked at the blue sky from afar, and couldn't help but sigh, in this era, I am really grateful to God for being able to prepare such a place in the northeast, although it is described by many people as a bitter and cold place outside the Guan, but it has given the northern Han people space to live, and I am really grateful to God for giving the Chinese the spirit of hardship and endurance.

In this way, these hungry people can survive, passed down from generation to generation, and think of their ancestors before they crossed over, how can it not be the favor of God, so that their ancestors can thrive in this black land.

Looking at the satisfaction of the hungry people being able to eat a full meal, He Tianci also laughed, he also has a Chinese dream, that is, the Chinese in this era can solve the problem of food and clothing, and will be well-off in the future.

After entering the spring, the weather on the grassland also began to be abnormal, the sky that was still clear just now, it was overcast again, and the huge dark clouds moved towards the north, heading straight for Taonan.

At this time, Taonan was shrouded in a shadow, and the size of Tongliao and Taonan was basically the same, but Taonan accepted twice as many immigrants as Tongliao -- 100,000 people, and half of the population of immigrants poured into Taonan this time, bringing vitality and trouble to Taonan.

The number of immigrants accepted by Taonan far exceeded the expected number, it was only a little more than a month, and the Taonan grain depot was a little unbearable, Gan Zhiming was busy preparing food everywhere early in the morning, but after a busy day, there was still no harvest, and his face was full of helplessness: "Sixth son, Jing'an, Baicheng, and Kai Kai have enough grain to eat for a few days?" ”

"One month...... To be conservative, it's only half a month! The sixth son seemed a little hesitant, he had followed Gan Zhiming for so long, and he had never seen him in such a hurry, but he knew Gan Zhiming's steady character in doing things, so he hurriedly changed his words.

"Oh, I'll just say you can't eat a fat man!" Gan Zhiming sighed, for the sake of immigration, he had to pick a son with He Tianci, so he barely managed to deal with the number of hungry people to 100,000, and conservatively estimated that the grain in Taonan was enough to eat for half a month, so Gan Zhiming was sure to control it to one month.

However, a month's grain is still early from the autumn harvest season, and this is simply a palliative but not a cure, and other ways must be found, otherwise this large number of immigrants, if they are not good, may turn into a popular uprising, and the forces of Eastern Mongolia and Tsarist Russia and Japan are mixed in, and this matter must be controlled.

Gan Zhiming didn't dare to be the slightest sloppy, and after thinking about it on the rice paper with a brush, he hurriedly ordered: "Liuzi, you can order to go down and control the number of meals provided to the hungry, twice a day, each time reduced to one bud rice dumpling." ”

"In addition, send the news of the shortage of food on our side to the town guard embassy in Tongliao, ask the town guard embassy to allocate food, and at the same time send it to Li Enyi of the logistics department, asking if you can get more food through the Russians."

"Yes, sir, I'll do it!"

Gan Zhiming glanced at Liuzi, still a little worried, and hurriedly got up and ordered: "Liuzi, go and go back quickly, go back and let's go to the hungry people's shed again." ”

Gan Zhiming stretched his old waist, and looked through the yamen thinking about the hungry people's sheds below, the small hungry people's sheds were crowded with hungry people, fortunately, the number of tents produced by Taonan Garment Factory could be supplied, otherwise it would be suffered, hundreds of thousands of hungry people, the daily food is an astronomical amount, he really can't imagine how He Tianci can do such a big thing.

The sunset is slag with blood-red viscosity, and the entire Taonan City is reflected in a crimson color, and the night is coming, but the hungry people under the city are still enthusiastic and busy, and their request is very simple, that is, to reclaim more wasteland and fill their stomachs.

Looking at the hungry people full of hope, Gan Zhiming's heart is difficult to calm down, maybe this is the reason why He Tianci accepted so many immigrants, maybe only in this way can the fertile land of Dongmeng show his due value, maybe many people will be a few years after He Tianci's merits, it seems that his own views are too narrow.

However, looking at the dense crowd in front of him, Gan Zhiming was more worried in his heart, at this time, there were 100,000 more people in Taonan City than in previous years, the food problem, or the food problem, if the food problem is not solved one day, Taonan will not be stable.

"Gollum"

Gan Zhiming's hungry stomach screamed, and then he realized that he hadn't eaten for a day, and he couldn't eat for a day. (To be continued......)
