November 3, 1900, Seris Republic, Sulawesi Island, Southwest Ocean Province, Rongsong County, Xinyitun.

On the vast green ridges, a crawler-type agricultural tractor emitting black smoke is dragging a large iron rake rumbling over the yellow-brown earth.

"Hey! Fuck, it's exciting! This tractor is much more solid than the old scalper. ”

Feeling the advanced achievements of modern agricultural science and technology in his country, Wang Laogen sighed and said excitedly.

Not far away, Wang Laogen's daughter-in-law, Sun Mei was holding her youngest daughter who had just been born for a long time, looking at her husband who was busy in the field with a smile, and her eldest son, Wang Xiaobao, who had just turned 5 years old, was grabbing her mother's sleeve and looking at the strange steel machine in front of her with curiosity......

"What's going on? I'm right. Before you asked you to take out a loan to buy this machine, you were still reluctant! Are you satisfied? ”

"Hey! Satisfied, satisfied! This tractor is so good, with this thing, you can plow all the twenty hectares of land in the house in two or three days...... Hahahaha, daughter-in-law, I'll listen to your ...... in the future."

Wang Laogen's family is a local farmer who immigrated from Anhui at the beginning of the year with the domestic migration torrent, because there is a son in the family, and his daughter-in-law Sun Mei happened to be pregnant when he came, which happened to be a coincidence, and finally the government gave his family an extra 100 acres of land in accordance with the regulations, and then counted the original 200 acres of guaranteed land, adding up to a total of 300 acres, that is, 20 hectares of land.

When Wang Laogen and his daughter-in-law followed the government officials to this place with their dolls, they couldn't believe that all this was true when they heard that the land in front of them had been allocated to his family. It wasn't until the staff present asked him to sign his name on the title deed that this honest middle-aged farmer from Bengbu, Anhui Province, really reacted. With tears in his eyes and trembling hands, he signed his name...... Soon after. The local government officials enthusiastically helped his family measure the homestead. They also provided a large number of red bricks, cement and other building materials for their migrant peasant families free of charge, so that their family of three quickly lived in a bright brick house...... Hey, the two-entry yard also has glass. In the eyes of the honest Wang Laogen, this is much better than the house of the rich man who always squeezed his own money in the past......

Thinking of these, Wang Laogen, who was busy with his life, couldn't help but feel proud in his heart, and at the same time, he couldn't help but be grateful to the "Chen Weiren" who was far away in Beijing. Alas, it was all thanks to his "old man", which allowed his Wang Laogen family to live this happy life.

Continuing to drive the agricultural tractor under the seat, Wang Laogen continued to plow the land in the direction while thinking about it anew.

Although the weather is a little hot, Wang Laogen's family was very unaccustomed to it when they first came, but heat also has the benefit of heat, and the land here can be planted with three crops of rice a year. Well, 300 kilograms per mu in one season. Three seasons a year is 900 kilograms, and the family planted 200 acres. That's a total of 180,000 kilograms, my mother, how long does this have to be eaten by my family...... Well, I can't finish eating and have to sell money to buy some new clothes and jewelry for my daughter-in-law doll or something, it's really bitter plums in the past, and in the future, my Wang Laogen must let my family live the fastest and better life...... Well, I have to calculate again, the price of a pound of rice on the domestic market is 2 cents and 5 cents (the price of Seris rice at that time was 50 Chinese yuan per ton, which is nearly twice the purchase price of corn), and our family will eat at most 4,000 catties of grain a year, so that the rest can be sold for 178,000 kilograms of rice, which can be sold for nearly 9,000 yuan. Even if the cost of seeds, fertilizers and other costs is removed, and the diesel cost and taxes for operating the tractor are counted, it can still net more than 4,000 Chinese yuan. That's a year to pay off the tractor loan...... If you count the output of those 100 acres of rubber forest...... Oh my God, how much money do you have to make this year, hahahaha...... Well, it's not busy, it will take some years for the rubber forest to mature, and I'm not greedy, so the market price of rubber seems to be rising quite a lot, hehe, let's have nothing to steal the fun, hehe.

Not far away, the little baby girl who was being held in the arms of her mother Sun Mei on the edge of the ridge also widened her eyes, and the young daughter obviously didn't understand what her father was smirking at on the "big monster" in front of her......

……

At the same time, the newly established province of Southwest Oceans, the Sunda Sea east of Sumatra.

On the pale blue and green sea, a steamer ship flying the Seris flag was moving fast......

One after another, the white waves playfully rained down on the steamer's surroundings. As can be seen from the equipment on board, it is a new type of motorized trawler that has just been developed in the Republic of Seris.

Captain Liu Hai was skillfully manipulating the rudder of the fishing boat, looking at the large and small sea fish fluttering in the trawl behind the boat, and couldn't help laughing happily.

"Big brother, great! This boat is much cleaner than the wooden rowing boat we used in our hometown......"

It was Liu Hai's younger brother, Liu Bo, who had immigrated to the Sumatra region of the Southwest Ocean a few months earlier.

"Haha, can that be compared! You see that this boat has netted tens of thousands of catties of good fish in one trip, haha, if it goes on like this, it won't take long for our fishing boat loan to be paid off, hahahaha! Bangs laughed.

The fishing boat driven by the Liu brothers is the "Baiyun" class diesel-powered trawler pioneered by Seris at the end of the 19th century, which has a displacement of less than 100 tons but has a full 30 tons of trawl pull. After several years of development, it has now become the most popular fishing vessel in Seris, and in recent years it has gradually become popular around the world.

Compared with the same type of marine fishing vessels in Europe at this time, this new motorized fishing boat in Seris is not only equipped with the most advanced equipment such as conduit propellers and reduction gearboxes in the country, but also equipped with the iconic electric trawl winch on the spacious work deck, making the manual work that originally required dozens of adults to work as easy as a single person can easily operate.

In today's East Sumatra, many of the local immigrants have begun to engage in a large number of their old trades, fishing. After acquiring more than 200 acres of land from the government free of charge, many of these local residents who emigrated from the coastal areas of Fujian Province on the mainland were not willing to be lonely, and many of them obtained financial loans through the government's support, and one by one purchased advanced steamboat trawlers from the mainland......

Undoubtedly, these modern fishing vessels imported from the mainland brought endless convenience to the Seris fishermen who migrated to the South-West Sea. In fact, it's not just these migratory fishermen who have picked up their old jobs...... With the passage of time, more and more locals have improved their original lives through their hardworking hands, and their lives have become more and more nourishing.

Just across the sea from Borneo, the eastern part of the province that belongs to the same southwestern province as East Sumatra, more and more Chinese are stepping out of their "small farms". Many of the more savvy immigrants have gone on to work in more lucrative industries such as rubber buying, mineral smelting, and precious metal processing...... With the gathering of people, the original wasteland on the island gradually formed a number of new industrial towns of considerable scale.

With the gradual deepening of the resource development of the newly established Southwest Ocean Province of the Republic of Seris, a large number of local mineral resources, including iron ore, coal and a large number of rare metals have been mined...... (To be continued......)
