In the early October of the third year of Chongzhen, it has entered the early winter season, in Huluyan Cottage, the villagers are wearing winter clothes and hats, and the cold wind raging in the mountains is sharper than a knife! The villagers generally do not go out when they have nothing to do, so they stay at home for the winter.

From quelling the rebellion of Jiang San'er and his gang to now, Huluyan Cottage has quietly undergone a lot of changes. After the establishment of the Huluyan Cottage Headquarters, the Huluyan Mutual Aid Association, the Huluyan Literacy School, and the Huluyan Weapons Development Institute were established one after another.

After the establishment of the cottage headquarters, Feng Jian first gathered the small flag officers of each outpost, and asked Zhao Shougang and other backbones of his outpost to explain the cultivation method of his outpost to everyone, and led everyone to check the production method of his outpost on the spot.

The little flag officers at the various outposts finally understood why Feng Jian dared to ensure that the Huluyan guards were professionally trained in military training, without worrying that their fields would be uncultivated.

To put it simply, it is to use the power of the collective to concentrate on cultivating the fields rented by the households in the outpost, and distribute the harvested grain according to the amount of land in each household after harvesting.

Leaving aside how to harvest the fields for the time being, the concentration of the cottage guards for military training did not affect the cultivation of the fields in the slightest, which made the small flag officials of the cottage posts tempted one after another, and asked Feng Jian to implement this collective farming system in their respective posts.

Feng Jian expected that when the small banners of various outposts saw the benefits of the collective farming system, they would definitely compete to learn and imitate them. However, Feng Jian did not plan to let each outpost engage in a collective farming system independently, but concentrated the land of all the outposts in Huluyan Cottage and implemented a collective farming system, so that the scale of land would be larger, and the corresponding human and material costs would be relatively lower.

After many discussions with Zhao Shougang, Huang Fuchun and other people with experience in the collective farming system, Feng Jian decided to establish the Huluyan Villagers Mutual Aid Association.

Mutual aid association, as the name suggests, is an organization that helps and reciprocies between Huluyan villagers in all aspects of production and life. This organization will carry the collective farming department founded and implemented by Feng Jian, the mutual trading department of farmers within the cottage, the supervision department, and the research and development department to improve grain harvest.

Originally, the wasteland reclaimed by Huluyan belonged to the cottage commander, and the villagers on the mountain rented the land under the commander, and paid a portion of the cottage grain to the cottage in proportion to each harvest season. The remainder is their own harvest, and there are no miscellaneous taxes other than that, so the villagers on the mountain can barely maintain their temperature.

In the first two years, the wind and rain were good, and the grain yield per mu may reach about 100 to 150 catties. In the past two years, many fields outside the mountains have very low yields per mu or no harvest, and most of the wasteland reclaimed by Huluyanzhuang households is in poor fields on the slopes, and working hard for a year may not be able to solve the problem of food and clothing.

In this world, the villagers can be content if they have something to eat, there is no exploitation of the farmland on the cottage and no taxes, the general of the cottage is the heaven of the cottage villagers, once the general is harmed, the ordinary special household people feel like the sky has fallen, so when Jiang San'er and his gang create rumors to incite the villagers to surround Hu Dadao, people will be easily fooled and follow Jiang San'er and his gang to gather in the square to make trouble.

On the other hand, this shows that the villagers are deeply afraid that the new general of the cottage will change the old land policy, which will make it difficult for the villagers to continue their lives.

In order to establish the Huluyan Mutual Aid Association, the first thing Feng Jian had to change was to distribute all the reclaimed fields of the cottage to the Huluyan Zhuang households evenly according to each household, so as to satisfy the desire of the villagers to own their own land.

Feng Jian summoned the small flag officials of each outpost and announced that he would re-measure the Huluyan field, and then distribute the cottage land evenly to the Zhuang households!

When the news came out, the sound of joy in Huluyan shook that day, many people burst into tears, and many villagers couldn't believe that the land they dreamed of could be divided so easily.

Feng Jian personally led the small banners of each outpost to measure the existing fields of the cottage, and measured a total of more than 190 hectares of hillside fields, which is converted into more than 19,000 acres. Huluyan has a population of more than 4,000 and more than 500 households, and per capita can be divided into more than four acres of hillside fields.

As one of the inevitable measures for the development and operation of the mutual aid association, Feng Jian directly divided the fields of each outpost of the cottage to the households of each village in the cottage, which is simply to divide the fields to the households, and from then on, all the fields in Huluyan were completely owned by each household.

In order to show fairness, Feng Jian asked each of the more than 500 households in the cottage to send a representative to the square to catch lots, and what kind of fields to catch depends on personal luck. Because there are two types of hillside land, which are close to water sources and not near water sources.

Naturally, Feng Jian, the new commander, replaced the Xu Ma Gang to become the "sky" in the minds of all Huluyan villagers, and this "sky" distributed the fields that the villagers were looking forward to to the villagers, which was even more popular!

Feng Jian was not in the mood to enjoy the support of the villagers, and in view of the fact that most people still did not know much about the functions of the mutual aid association, Feng Jian once again gathered the small flag officials of each outpost to explain the functions and functions of the mutual aid association in detail, and then they explained it to the villagers in their own outpost.

There are three main functions of the mutual aid association: one is that the mutual aid association will concentrate all the fields of the cottage for large-scale cultivation; The second is to supervise the behavior of malpractice and annexation of the farmer's land in the process of land circulation and operation; The third is to cultivate and study how to increase grain production.

The premise of large-scale cultivation is to sign a lease contract with the farmer's hands, and most of the harvest is returned to the farmer every year, and the remaining part is left in the mutual aid association as the cottage public grain and as the cottage reserve.

By renting land to the mutual aid association, the farmer can participate in the productive labor of the mutual aid association, and he can get a share of the labor for every day of productive labor he participates in.

The division of labor can be exchanged for alcohol, cooking oil, homespun cloth, grain, ironware, wooden utensils, tobacco, hemp rope and other groceries at the trading place under the mutual aid association, and can also be exchanged for meat products such as chicken, duck, fish, and meat.

If there is a shortage of grain at home or there is grain at home, they can borrow a part of the grain from the grain storage center under the mutual aid association for free, or go to the grain storage center to store the surplus grain at home.

Of course, the president of the Huluyan Mutual Aid Association is appointed by Feng Jian, and there are three functional departments: the Supervision Department, the Logistics Department, and the Breeding Department.

The Supervision Office has the ability to prosecute whether the directors of the Mutual Aid Association have committed corruption, malfeasance, and deception, similar to the institutions of the Independent Commission Against Corruption in later generations.

The Logistics Department is in charge of Huluyan Cottage publicly owned materials, such as livestock, farm tools, seeds, feed, etc., and has two departments: a trading field and a grain storage office.

The breeding department mainly cultivates experimental seeds, and the purpose of Feng Jian's establishment of the breeding department is to cultivate the awareness of striving to study and improve breeding in this era, so the director of the breeding department must be able to read and break sentences, and must be familiar with field cultivation.

Therefore, the heads of the three departments are temporarily vacant, and Feng Jian has to investigate the people he likes for a period of time before making a decision.

There are ten mutual aid branches under the jurisdiction of the Huluyan Mutual Aid Association, which are rebuilt from the original ten outposts such as A, B, C, D, etc., and each mutual aid association has a president and a record. The president of the mutual aid association is the small flag officer of the respective outpost, and the records are the literate people of each outpost. Appointed by a proclamation issued by the Huluyan Command.

The Mutual Aid Society at each outpost counts as a separate sub-department, e.g. the original Outpost A is named Association A, Outpost B is named Association B, and so on.

The mutual aid association usually says that the president of the mutual aid association leads the collective labor in labor and farming, and the post has a recorder to record the daily work of each person.

At the end of the quarter, the recorder of each mutual aid association will summarize the work income of each person, and then the Huluyan Mutual Aid Association will publish a list to publicize each person's work.

After there is no objection to the publicity, the farmer can exchange his work in the Huluyan Mutual Aid Association for miscellaneous goods, meat and vegetables.

After the establishment of the mutual aid association, the fields of the cottage households are gathered together for collective cultivation and collective harvesting, which also has the advantage of solving the problem of cultivating the fields of those villagers who lack labor on the cottage, and the families who lack labor can earn work in other ways, and get the harvest during the harvest season by renting the fields of the mutual aid association.

For example, cottage guards, such as lonely and widowed households, by joining mutual aid associations, they don't have to worry about their fields being uncultivated!

Because with the mutual aid association, you can earn a share of your work as long as you participate in the work, and you can exchange it for the necessities of life, and this creates a kind of cycle.

Immediately afterwards, Feng Jian announced the establishment of the Huluyan Literacy School in the name of the Huluyan Headquarters.

There are many children under the age of ten in the cottage, and Feng Jian from later generations certainly knows the important surname of learning knowledge from the baby. Don't dare to say anything else, at least let the children of ordinary villagers in Huluyan learn to read and write, and in a few years, a group of people who can read and break words will gradually support Huluyan, which Feng Jian is very willing to see.

Most of them are illiterate, so first of all, they must select literate people in the cottage as professors, so that children over eight years old in the cottage can read and write for free in the school.

In addition, Huluyan will set up a guard army in the future, and the soldiers of the guard army must learn to read, and the Huluyan literacy school also shoulders the responsibility of teaching soldiers to read.

The literacy school Feng Jian also implemented it in Jishao at the beginning, but at that time, when people were not stable and the farming was busy, there were very few students enrolled in the school, which made the teacher Su Su at that time extremely embarrassed.

With the current support of the Huluyan Zhuang people for Feng Jian, not to mention the good thing of stipulating that children over the age of eight must enter the school for free literacy, it is to let them go down the mountain to find the grinding cone bandits.

In order for the Huluyan Shanzhai Literacy School to be carried out smoothly, there must be a special venue as the learning location of the literacy school, and the first principal must be selected.

Feng Jian has already done enough of these Feng Jian work, and set aside an area in a secluded place in the cottage as a school, and the first principal of the school still chose Su Su.

From Shanghuluyan to the present, Su Su has dealt with Feng Jian a lot, for this new commander of Huluyan, who is not a few years older than herself, she has heard too many magical legends, all say that the girl is pregnant with spring, I am afraid that most women in Huluyan are full of admiration for this young commander, and Su Su is naturally no exception.

Every time I secretly looked at this little flag official in private, my heart always beat involuntarily and rapidly.

This little flag official not only saved the lives of most of the people in his post, but also took control of Huluyan in a short period of time, and now he has launched the unheard of Huluyan Mutual Aid Association, distributing the land to each family for free. Su Su was really curious, how could this little flag officer come up with so many novel ways!

Growing up to the age of fifteen, the little flag officer is another man who has left a shadow in his heart besides his father. But this sentiment is so unspeakable, and even secretly looking at him is afraid of being seen by others, the little flag official still doesn't know that he is a daughter!

The girl's soft feelings have been unconsciously tied to Feng Jian's body, but Feng Jian is ignorant of this feeling.

The Huluyan Weapons Research and Development Institute was established on the day of the establishment of the headquarters, and Feng Jian decided to establish it on the spot.

The main task of the so-called weapons development institute at this stage is to make enough agricultural tools for the gourd rock, and of course, the weapons and blades of the cottage soldiers will also be supplied by the weapons development institute in the future.

Of course, its main role lies in the development of weapons, and no one, including Feng Jian, will think that with the current conditions, what kind of blades can be developed, but everything is foreseen, and it is always beneficial to set up a shelf first.

Zhang Dalai was naturally appointed as the first director of the weapons research and development institute, and before the high-level exchange meeting of the cottage, Zhang Dalai had promised Feng Jian to build a blacksmith shop in a short time. Some of the broken blade farm tools in the cottage were rebuilt to ensure that each mutual aid club had enough farm tools to use.
