"What were you talking about, two fellows? Salary? Do we also have a factory in Fangcheng? Chen Bingkun listened to himself for a while, and found that when the two were talking, he actually didn't understand many words, and he finally couldn't help the curiosity in his heart, and stepped forward to talk to the two workers.

As far as he knew, Fangcheng was a very backward fishing village and a small county, and some of the things that the two workers were talking about did not seem to be in line with the configuration of the fishing village.

"Who are you?" The two workers turned their heads and saw Chen Bingkun, one of whom seemed to be more shrewd did not immediately answer Chen Bingkun's words, but looked at Chen Bingkun with a little doubt.

"We came to Fangcheng to visit relatives, no, I haven't been back to Fangcheng for a long time, I feel that our Fangcheng seems to be different from before, but the specific ones are different, I can't see it." Chen Bingkun hurriedly said.

The changes in Fangcheng are more institutional changes, and the original streets, houses, and some buildings in the county town have basically not undergone any changes. Chen Bingkun can feel the changing defense from the same defense city, and he is not simple.

"In this case, then it's no wonder that you don't know about the big things that happened in our defense city." The two workers did not doubt Chen Bingkun's words, and after one of the workers nodded, he said: "Then let's talk to you briefly, since Commander Yuan and them came to Fangcheng, the life of our common people has simply changed dramatically." ”

"First of all, land ......"

"And then our work......"

"Then the political axe also considers the problem of crop planting for us......"

The changes in Fangcheng can be said to be the deepest feeling of these lower-class characters, they usually have no chance to brag to others, at this time they caught Chen Bingkun, an outsider who didn't know anything, the two workers' chatterbox opened, the two of you said, I explained Yuan Baoyi and some of the events they did after coming to Fangcheng, and naturally brought them sighs and thanks one by one.

Chen Bingkun listened to the words of the two, at first with a little curiosity, but as the conversation box between the two opened, he heard something he wanted to hear. With the mentality of gathering some information, he did not interrupt the narration of the two, but listened quietly. Just listening to it, there was surprise on his face, and then when he heard some unreasonable actions and measures, such as fighting the landlord to divide the land, Chen Bingkun was shocked.

"Oh, old bolt, it's a delay, soon, we're going to lose our wages." After the two talked to themselves, one of them suddenly remembered what they were doing, and couldn't help but pat his head suddenly.

"Ah, yes, this little brother, I'm sorry, we can't talk to you anymore, another day, no, you can ask the brothers on the street, they all know, we have to hurry to get paid." Hua Laozhuan hurriedly thought that Chen Bingkun was sorry, and then without waiting for Chen Bingkun's reaction, he pulled his companion to quickly run to the factory outside the city.

Factories, fertilizer factories and other infrastructure, Fangcheng is built separately from the county seat, basically by the sea, so in the county seat of Fangcheng, Chen Bingkun can't see much new things.

After the two left in a hurry, Chen Bingkun was still in a sluggish state of surprise, and he didn't come back to his senses until his entourage patted him.

"What, where did they go?" When he came back to his senses, he was surprised to find that the two workers seemed to have left, and he couldn't help but ask his entourage.

"Gone." The attendant hurriedly pointed.

"Why don't you stop them, I still have a lot of things to ask them." As soon as Chen Bingkun saw the person leaving, he immediately became angry with his entourage.

……

Fangcheng faces the sea on three sides, and even the county seat is a river crisscross, so it is not easy to build a fertilizer factory in the county. However, the fertilizer factory in Fangcheng was eventually established, in a mine not far from the county seat. After a simple transformation, the mine is now a simple fertilizer production plant, producing simple and easy fertilizer.

Anyway, the seeds given by Chen Liqing are high-quality seeds, and they can be produced healthily and quickly even if they are not fertilized.

Today's Fangcheng Fertilizer Factory suddenly ushered in two unfamiliar faces.

It was Chen Bingkun and his entourage who were in Fangcheng, and after inquiring about some information in Fangcheng, Chen Bingkun decided to come to Fangcheng to inspect these factories on the spot to see if Yuan Baoyi and them were really as wise as the people said.

There is no way, all Chen Bingkun got from the mouths of the ordinary people in Fangcheng were words of praise for Yuan Baoyi, and of course, there were shocking measures.

Fighting landlords to divide land, forcibly cooperating with landlords to set up factories and recruiting workers in Fangcheng, and some seemingly stupid measures, each of which seems to Chen Bingkun to be a fantasy, seems to be a dream.

Among them, in particular, Yuan Baoyi actually exempted the people of Fangcheng from the grain tax, which in Chen Bingkun's view, was a bit of digging his own grave.

If the peasants do not share the military expenses equally, then where will the cost of their military training come from, and how can they raise donations for military expenses if they do not collect taxes from merchants and issue stocks?

In the end, in addition to being shocked, Chen Bingkun couldn't help but come to visit various factories in Fangcheng with all kinds of curiosity.

"Master, this is what they call a fertilizer factory, I can't imagine that in this remote place, they also open a fertilizer factory, but what is this fertilizer factory?" Chen Bingkun's entourage saw the fertilizer factory.

Chen Bingkun also saw the fertilizer factory, and at the same time, along the way, they also saw all kinds of farmers growing well in the fields outside Fangcheng County, and there were farmers who often had satisfaction on their faces.

In fact, the fertilizer factory is the appearance of a temporary construction site halfway up the mountain, with simple machines and simple workshops, just the size of two buildings, but it can maintain sufficient production and supply thousands of acres of fertile land around Fangcheng every day, and can also support the payment of dozens of workers' wages. And the general person in charge of this factory is none other than Zhao Mingyi, the son of Zhao Jiekun, the official landlord of Fangcheng.

Zhao Mingyi was given an excuse by Chen Liqing and them to manage this small fertilizer factory.

When Chen Bingkun arrived, Zhao Mingyi was directing the workers to make fertilizer.

The production of fertilizer is actually very simple, it is to pour various minerals into the blast furnace and heat it, and then cool it with water and add some soil to become a simple and easy fertilizer. The ex-factory price of this kind of fertilizer fertilizer factory is five cents a package, and this fertilizer factory can produce more than 3,000 bags of fertilizer every day, and the production efficiency is not bad.

As soon as Chen Bingkun came, he saw this specific process, and no one from Yuan Baoyi took Chen Bingkun to visit anything during the period. Chen Bingkun himself also thought he was clever and found an excuse, saying that he saw that the good rise of the grain dealer in Fangcheng was because of the fertilizer, and he was a businessman from another county who wanted to come to see if he could talk about a fertilizer business.

Zhao Mingyi naturally entertained him very warmly.

"Boss Chen, this is the specific process of our fertilizer production, as we all know, our country's grain production has not been very high, on the one hand, because of the seeds, on the other hand, because we don't know much about the real science of grain planting. And the fertilizer we produce comes out, which has a variety of mineral elements to meet the growth of crops, just like our children grow into adults must be full every day, eat well, crops and the like are planted in the ground, and it is not a simple weeding and loosening the soil to be able to harvest, they also need enough things to eat, in order to be able to produce a bumper yield. ”

"You can see that the crops in those fields outside our factory are growing well?" Zhao Mingyi carried out his work loyally. He did a good job and basically couldn't find any flaws. Although he was now in the body of a crime, since he was assigned here to manage the factory, he knew that the managers of the defense city had a heart.

After managing the production of fertilizer, he seemed to have found the meaning of the final revolution after seeing the happy and satisfied faces of the farmers who grew high-yield and high-quality grain because of the fertilizer they produced. And as the various factories in Fangcheng began to show benefits, Fangcheng Zhengaxe also abided by the rules of sharing accounts with the landlord like the agreement signed at the beginning, and did not go beyond Lei Chi, Zhao Mingyi knew that they were defending the city, perhaps they had met a really good revolutionary.

Since then, he has been working more seriously for the city political axe, and at the same time, he is also working hard to learn some fertilizer information given to him by Chen Liqing, and in just a few months, he has become the acting director of a qualified and excellent fertilizer factory. The real factory director is naturally his father Zhao Jiekun and Fangcheng Zheng Axe.

"These crops are indeed growing well." Chen Bingkun listened to Zhao Mingyi's introduction, and also looked at the crops in the field that were rising well, and couldn't help but sigh and nodded.

Compared with the crops on the side of Fangcheng, those crops in Nanning can be said to be extremely poor. Although Chen Bingkun was not interested in any kind of food and agriculture, he was also able to know how much food played a role in Lu Rongting's rule of Guangxi.

"These crops are as good as they are now because of our fertilizers, and they didn't go up as well a few years ago when the fertilizer plant wasn't built." Zhao Mingyi introduced.

"If Boss Chen chooses to order the fertilizer from our factory, as long as you pull them down where you are and sell them, you will definitely be able to sell them at a good price, and some other landlords will definitely rush to buy the fertilizer in your hand. This is a good thing for the benefit of all generations, Boss Chen, you can consider my proposal. Zhao Mingyi also worked hard to treat Chen Bingkun as a business partner to talk about business.

Naturally, these people from the surrounding counties did come to Zhao Mingyi to discuss the purchase of fertilizers.

"For the benefit of one party? Generations? Chen Bingkun automatically ignored the previous words, but when Zhao Mingyi said these two words, Chen Bingkun's shadow involuntarily appeared in his mind.

If these fertilizers are brought back to Nanning and Guangxi, so that Guangxi's crops can be bumper and high-yielding, which ordinary people who were originally a little against Lu Rongting will definitely become more obedient and support Lu Rongting, thus directly improving their Guangxi strength, which is a great achievement.

Chen Bingkun's eyes couldn't help but shine.

Fangcheng Liangtou Dragon Village temporary wharf.

After five days, Chen Liqing and his fleet returned to Fangchenggang, because it took seven days to get full of goods, and there was no goods when they came back, so they only took five days to arrive at Fangchenggang.

"Here, Sister Yin Xiu, Yin Li, this is my home, Fangcheng, this is Guangdong, if you want to go back to Zhejiang, then you can only go inland with us." After saying goodbye, returning to Fangcheng again, Chen Liqing actually had an excited mood of returning to his hometown.

Strictly speaking, this trip is also the first time in his two lives that he has gone abroad, returning to Fangcheng from the relatively modern Osaka, and this change still brings a little psychological change. Especially this time, he even brought back a girl from Yuben, and it felt even more different.

"This is Liqing, your house?" Yin Xiu and Yin Li had long been curious about what Chen Liqing's home was like, and after listening to Chen Liqing's introduction, they began to observe Fangcheng after getting off the boat.

However, if they look at the two-headed dragon village, there is nothing else to see except for a dock that is still under construction, some small boats and some workers are moored. After a glance, Yin Li couldn't help but say, "Liqing, this is your home?" ”

Yin Xiu and Yin Li naturally couldn't believe that Chen Liqing's family was in such a small place.

"Of course this is not ......"

"Young master, urgent report, Commander Yuan has something important to discuss with you, please go to Fangcheng quickly to discuss major matters with him." Chen Liqing just wanted to talk to Yin Xiu and them, when suddenly a person came up.

"What is there to discuss with me?" Chen Liqing was stunned, Yin Li and Yin Xiu looked at the soldier in military uniform who suddenly appeared, and they couldn't help but have some guesses in their eyes.

"Commander Yuan didn't say it, but he told the young master that as soon as you come back, you'd better meet with him as soon as possible." The soldier said.

"Okay, it seems that Sister Yin Xiu, Brother Yin Li, I can't accompany you well for the time being, I may have to go to Fangcheng first, I will ask someone to send you to Fangcheng, I'll go first." Chen Liqing couldn't figure out what Yuan Baoyi was looking for him, but Yuan Baoyi said so, Yuan Baoyi would definitely be able to solve ordinary things, and he suddenly thought of what might be something important.

And there are generally only two important things, first, something happened to Guizhou's hometown, and second, Lu Rongting may have made a move.

The two important matters are urgent and urgent, and Chen Liqing naturally cannot delay.

Fangcheng, the residence of Yuan Baoyi.

Chen Bingkun, who had been visiting Fangcheng for three days, came to visit Yuan Baoyi again, but this time, he had a different feeling when he looked at Yuan Baoyi. Although he had only visited Fangcheng for three days, he had not yet inquired about how many troops Yuan Baoyi had and how many guns he had. However, after three days of inspection, he was 80 percent sure that he had figured out the specific strength of the defense city.

Of course, there is a big gap in strength compared to Lu Rongting and what he predicted, of course, this gap is not to look down on Yuan Baoyi and them, but Lu Rongting and him, both completely underestimate this Yuan Baoyi.

In three days, after understanding the agriculture, industry, and the entire economic security situation of Fangcheng, Chen Bingkun finally concluded that Fangcheng has great potential for development, and Yuan Baoyi is probably not the kind of person who sticks to one place with peace of mind. After getting these speculations, no matter whether Yuan Baoyi promised them to participate in the suppression of bandits next, he would go back to Nanning in advance and tell Lu Rongting what he had seen and heard.

So he looked at Yuan Baoyi carefully for about thirty seconds this time, and then raised his hand and said: "Battalion Commander Yuan, this time I'm afraid Bingkun is going to leave in advance, there is news from Nanning, and the governor is short of manpower, so Bingkun is here to say goodbye to Camp Commander Yuan, these three days, thank you Camp Commander Yuan for your hospitality." ”

"Huh?" Yuan Baoyi was a little uncomfortable by Chen Bingkun, where did he think that Chen Bingkun would go back as soon as he opened his mouth? He couldn't help but be surprised, and continued, "But our deliberations will be a few more days. "Chen Liqing hasn't come back yet, Yuan Baoyi is really a little worried that Chen Bingkun and them will come hard, otherwise he may have to be passive at that time.

"The matter of suppressing bandits should naturally be considered in the long run." Chen Bingkun said: "Sending troops is not a simple matter, I will report this difficulty to our governor when I go back, Brother Yuan, you just need to discuss the results, and send someone to our Nanning to tell me or the governor." ”

"Oh?" Yuan Baoyi was surprised again, he didn't expect Chen Bingkun's intention to come was the opposite of what he expected, not to force him to decide, but to really say goodbye.

"Since this is the case, then Baoyi will not keep Brother Chen." Although surprised, Yuan Baoyi reacted quickly.

"Hehe, it should be like this, then Brother Yuan, I will leave this time, the next time Brother Yuan comes to Nanning, I must tell Brother Wei, let me do my best to be a landlord, this time Brother Yuan's hospitality in Fangcheng is very thoughtful and thoughtful." Chen Bingkun smiled and stood up and said goodbye.

"Definitely, definitely!" Yuan Baoyi also stood up to send Chen Bingkun.

"Brother Yuan doesn't need to send it, send you a thousand miles, you have to say goodbye in the end, Brother Yuan still has important things to do, don't delay because of sending me, if something goes wrong, Bingkun can't afford it, stay here, stay here." At the city gate, Chen Liqing and his entourage had just arrived, and they saw Yuan Baoyi and Chen Bingkun saying goodbye to each other here.

"Okay, since that's the case, then Brother Chen, go slowly." The arrival of Chen Liqing and his entourage also made Yuan Baoyi see it at once, and while Yuan Baoyi breathed a sigh of relief, he also hurriedly continued to say goodbye to Chen Bingkun.

"Who is this?" Chen Liqing did not walk up, but stood in place, turned back to ask the soldiers.

"This is Chen Bingkun, the special envoy sent by Lu Rongting, the governor of Guangxi." The soldier immediately replied.

"Who?"

"Chen Bingkun?" Chen Liqing couldn't help but widen his eyes and carefully looked at Chen Bingkun who was walking towards him, and at the same time, Chen Bingkun's information quickly flashed in his mind.

Chen Bingkun is one of the few most trusted and convincing people in the old Gui family, Chen Bingkun actually came to Fangcheng, so does Lu Rongting finally have to make any moves? (To be continued.) )
