"Yupeng, are you here?"

Looking at Zhang Yupeng with a tired face, Liu Fan said with some distress, this period of time is not good for Zhang Yupeng. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Zhang Yupeng has just ascended to a high position, there are too many things to learn and deal with, coupled with his own lack of experience, it is not a simple thing to assist Zhang Yiheng in dealing with the civil affairs of Jiaozhou, from his tired demeanor Liu Fan can see how much effort he has put into this.

"I wonder what the Overseers did to call Yupeng to do? Is there something Yupeng has done badly recently? Zhang Yupeng saw that Liu Fan's expression seemed to be a little wrong, and asked a little nervously

Liu Fan smiled, stretched out his hand and gestured, "Sit down and talk first, you have been working hard recently, I have seen it." I came to you this time because I had an important task for you to do. ”

Zhang Yupeng's face softened a little when he heard this, and he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "If the overseer has any orders, just say that as long as Yupeng can do it, he will do his best!" ”

"Hmm," Liu Fan was very satisfied with Zhang Yupeng's attitude of daring to do things, and explained with a smile, "I recently plan to set up some peasant associations in Laizhou to help the people of Laizhou fight against the powerful gentry. After thinking about it, it's safer to leave this matter to you, so I called you! ”

Zhang Yupeng was puzzled and said, "Overseer, I don't know what this peasant association is?" Can you solve Yupeng's doubts? ”

Liu Fan pondered for a moment and said, "The peasant association, as the name suggests, is the peasant federation. The main role is to unite the poor peasants at the bottom of the society, so that they have a certain strength to protect their own interests. The objectives of the peasant associations are threefold: first, to be wise and to teach farmers to understand numbers and reason, and second, to improve planting, to introduce and popularize high-yield crops, and to improve grain seeds and cultivation methods to increase grain production. Three joint collectives. Gather the strength of the masses to concentrate on overcoming the difficulties encountered in the production and life of farmers! ”

Zhang Yupeng nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "After listening to the overseer's explanation, Yupeng also feels that the establishment of the peasant association is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people. But how to do it, Yupeng is still a mist. Please ask the Overseers for some advice! ”

Liu Fan said with a smile: "The peasant association is a new thing for everyone, and I only know its principle. But I would like to give you some advice, the people of Laizhou are at a disadvantage and are in urgent need of help, as long as you can bring them help, with the cooperation of the Military Intelligence Department, it should not be difficult for them to accept you! ”

Picking up the teacup and taking a sip gently, Liu Fan continued, "After the people initially accept you, it will be easy to do, you can see the peasant association as another extension of our civil administration system and militia system, and try to establish your own prestige in the peasant association, and at the same time gradually establish the power under our control." As long as the prestige is enough, and the power is controlled enough, then the peasant union is basically part of us! However, these things must be done with care and never be rushed. Arouse the disgust of the people! ”

Zhang Yupeng comprehended, "Overseer, I know what you mean, we will try our best to handle the affairs of the peasant association." But I have a request for you to agree! ”

Liu Fan smiled and said, "Let's say, as long as it is beneficial to the establishment of the peasant association, I will consider it at my discretion!" ”

Zhang Yupeng was overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "I want to ask you to transfer those of my colleagues from the Propaganda Section in Chenggu to this operation, is it okay?" ”

"Okay, you can choose the personnel yourself, as long as you think it will help you, you have the right to mobilize them! What do you think? Are you satisfied? ”

Zhang Yupeng grinned and said, "Satisfied, satisfied." Thank you for the Overseer's understanding! ”

Although the peasant association was run by Zhang Yupeng and others, Liu Fan knew that it was not so easy for the peasant association to become one. After all, the peasant association is a new thing for the people now, and the personnel of the Broken Army also know little about it, which is tantamount to crossing the river by feeling the stones, which will inevitably encounter all kinds of problems and difficulties, from jerky to mature, and then form a powerful force, it will undoubtedly take a long time to ferment and brew. In this way, Liu Fan's time to take over Laizhou will undoubtedly be greatly extended. Liu Fan weighed this result in his heart, and still chose to accept it. As long as Laizhou takes over before next year's summer harvest, it will not affect the agricultural season too much. As long as it does not destroy grain production, it will be a victory for Liu Fan.

There are gains and losses, and Liu Fan is more concerned about the new mode of spreading his influence than the time spent. Once the peasant association is successfully passed in Laizhou, Liu Fan can continue the model of the peasant association and extend his tentacles to the whole of Shandong and even the entire northern Ming Dynasty.

But before that, Liu Fan must be patient enough to observe and wait for the Laizhou Peasant Association to mature.

After three days of busy preparations, Zhang Yupeng took more than 200 carefully selected backbones from the political school and militia team and Zhao Bo to set off for Laizhou with Liu Fan's expectations.

After Zhang Yupeng left, Liu Fan felt that it was difficult for things in Laizhou to have results for a long time, so he began to shift his attention from Laizhou to himself. It happened that Fan Liang sent back the news that the Jiaozhou fleet had returned to Qingdao from Jiangnan. Liu Fan decided to take Zhang Yao and other women to the beach to relax, and by the way, take a look at the reconstruction of the shipyard.

Knowing that Liu Fan was going to take them to the beach to play, the girls were very happy, especially the little girls Lu Er and Mo'er, whose excited expressions were even more overflowing. Seeing the happy appearance of several girls, Liu Fan couldn't help but feel a little guilty in his heart. In the past half a month, after he returned to Jiaozhou, he has been busy dealing with various things, and he has not cared enough for the women. So much so that now just a small outing makes them happy like this. This makes Liu Fan embarrassed! Liu Fan secretly made up his mind that after he was busy with these things at hand, he would take the girls to play well and compensate him for his debt for so long. After a simple pack-up, Liu Fan took the women and his guards and set off for Qingdao.

Starting from Shihe, Liu Fan and his group hurried after several hours and arrived at the first stop of their trip, Jiaozhou Shipyard. After more than a year, he came to the shipyard again, and Liu Fan was full of emotion in his heart. Although he knew that the current situation of the shipyard would definitely not be good because of the fact that the pirates had destroyed the shipyard in one fell swoop, Liu Fan still couldn't help but feel a little angry when he saw the current shipyard with his own eyes.

Because Liu Fan could see at a glance that the rebuilt shipyard was actually half smaller than before the expedition. Not only that, after walking into the shipyard, Liu Fan could also see the traces left by the fire when he looked closely. These black marks clearly tell Liu Fan what he has encountered here.
