Chapter 197: Rice Seedling Cultivation
There are only three pieces of black soil on Shijie, one is in the Mississippi River Basin in North America, one is in the Great Plains of Ukraine, and one is in the northeast, which is the most suitable place for farming in Bluestar. And these three pieces of black soil have created the three largest countries on Shijie, which also seems to illustrate the secret between agriculture and national fortunes.
According to the standards of later generations, the three eastern provinces provided 100 million people, and also provided more than 140 percent of the country's commercial grain, which shows the potential of agriculture in Northeast China. Of course, the current yield per mu cannot be compared with that of later generations, but it is still possible for the three eastern provinces to feed 35 million people.
Therefore, the three eastern provinces still have huge potential, and it can be said that they are vast and sparsely populated, and they have not been effectively developed at all. Zhang Tinglan has long thought of this problem, and the Northeast still needs a large number of people to fill the gap, so that the potential of the three eastern provinces can be tapped.
Japan currently has a population of more than 50 million, and occupies the Korean Peninsula and Taiwan, so if you want to fight against this island country, you must at least have a corresponding population size.
Zhang Tinglan has long planned to introduce a large number of immigrants, and now that Lao Zhang is in charge of Fengtian, the main energy has been transferred to development, and Zhang Tinglan is supervising the reclamation work.
Zhang Tinglan was ready to throw off his arms and pull people from the Guannei, he smiled and said to Wang Yongjiang: "Mr. Minyuan, everything is people-oriented, with a sufficient population, there are enough workers and peasants, in order to form enough troops, there are stable taxes, this is more important than anything else, making money is too far behind the great cause of immigration!" ”
"Clumsy words, there are also you who say this, but as the saying goes, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and I, the Minister of Finance, will not give you approval if I have any funds. I see how you immigrate from outside the border! ”
"Mr. Minyuan, don't bring this, this is the foundation of Fengtian's prosperity, how can you not support it?"
"To put it mildly, immigration is important, but if you don't have money, you can't play anything, you don't have to push everything on the Russian side, you have to take care of it, of course, you have to take care of the immigration affairs. You young people are in good health, and you don't have a problem even spinning. As the saying goes, those who can work harder, don't want to shirk responsibility. ”
Wang Yongjiang made it clear that he didn't want to let go of Zhang Tinglan, he had worked with Zhang Tinglan for a while, and he also knew Zhang Tinglan's ability. He single-handedly facilitated the smuggling of Russia in the first place, hoping to get more benefits. His involvement is definitely indispensable.
"To put it mildly, you can't simply separate things. Rather, it should be linked. As a whole, our smuggling into Russia is actually the same thing as your immigration from the Guannai! ”
Wang Yongjiang said with a smile: "We have set up a cash-for-work program in Liaoyang, and to be honest, the cost is several times more than the usual disaster relief, but I think the money is worth spent." Now that the ice and snow have melted, the victims in Liaoyang have started reconstruction work early. The leaders of each group are actively planning farming, and they are more efficient and planned than other farmers. That's a rare point. ”
Wang Yongjiang told Zhang Tinglan about the benefits of Liaoyang's disaster relief, through the way of group responsibility, the common people are no longer a plate of scattered sand, all have been organized, this is something that all Chinese dynasties and dynasties have not been able to do, the government for the first time without going through the landlord, can directly implement the decree to every common people, this change can be called earth-shaking.
According to Zhang Tinglan's Jihua, five years later, when the common people regained the ownership of the land, they directly switched to farm-based management, completely getting rid of the traditional small-scale peasant economy.
Production efficiency will be greatly improved, and there will be greater resilience to risks, and these people will not be displaced and starved because of a flood. At the same time, Zhang Tinglan also used various means to encourage them to carry out a variety of businesses, and among these ordinary people there may be merchants, craftsmen, breeders and other professions. With their presence, the rural economy develops and, thanks to this approach, the hiding of the land is avoided.
In the long run, these farms will definitely change, and now everyone has about the same amount of land, and there will definitely be mergers in the future. Mergers within farms, mergers between farms, and the emergence of larger farms, these farmers either completely become agricultural workers, or leave the countryside and enter the city, contributing to the development of the city.
No matter which direction it goes, it means that China's traditional rural model will be completely broken, and landlords and tenant farmers will withdraw from the stage of history and become a string of memories.
"Humble words, the benefits are not only these, aren't you now also the supervision of the militia, then it is better, build a farm, and you can easily organize the militia to protect the farm, it is simply a matter of course, you don't need to waste a little energy, otherwise you have to send people to every village, and most of the people will be reluctant."
Zhang Tinglan's brain was spinning faster than Wang Yongjiang, and when he said this, Zhang Tinglan had already guessed his thoughts.
"Mr. Min Yuan, do you mean that immigrants from Guannai also adopt this method, let's take out the funds from Russia, carve out pieces of wasteland in Mukden, and then bring in immigrants from Guannai, let them develop first, and then properly guide them to turn them into farms."
"Clumsy Yan, what you said is too right, we have just checked the Eight Banners and nobles, and there is still a lot of remaining land in our hands, which can be used now, if Fengtian has built a farm, the tax revenue will be guaranteed, and my practice of clearing the acres of land can be put aside for the time being."
"Don't!" Zhang Tinglan hurriedly stopped Wang Yongjiang: "Mr. Minyuan, you can't be too optimistic, this is something that changes thousands of years of tradition, and it is definitely not something that can be completed overnight." Moreover, those farms abroad are market-oriented, and they need to understand what the market needs, and what they will plant. If we build a small number of farms, we may not need to consider the problem of marketing, if Fengtian is full of farms, we have to think about it, otherwise there will be a huge backlog of grain, and these ordinary people will lose their enthusiasm. ”
In Wang Yongjiang's head, he really didn't think too much about what to do if there was too much food, all along, the Chinese have been in a state of half-hunger and half-fullness, and food has always been the most precious. But after thinking about it carefully, there is also Zhang Tinglan who said this, and he really thought things simple.
"Mr. Minyuan, there are more than 80,000 victims in Liaoyang, and when we divide the land of the nobles of the Eight Banners equally, a large number of ordinary people have obtained land.
After listening to this, Wang Yongjiang nodded again and again: "This is the safest way to engage in a pilot, and it is really clumsy to say that you are sober-minded, if you want to engage in a pilot, you must be inseparable from investment, and now the most profitable business in Fengtian is smuggling, I will say that you can't push these things away, you have to pick it up on your shoulders!" ”
Zhang Tinglan also saw through Wang Yongjiang's thoughts, this guy is cunning and cunning, he just wants to let himself work and help him solve the financial problem as soon as possible, but since he has said this, Zhang Tinglan also has more thoughts about immigration.
Immigrants are not just pulling people to Mukden, but also letting these people take root as soon as possible, adapt to the life of Mukden, accept the management of the government, and truly transform them into liliang that can be used and integrate into the entire Fengtian economic system.
On the contrary, if these people cannot be effectively managed, no matter how many immigrants are introduced, the Liliang of the Feng army will not be fundamentally promoted.
"Mr. Min Yuan, since you have said this, neither of us should run, you are responsible for demarcating wasteland in Fengtian, organizing cattle and seed farming tools, etc., and providing some funds. I went to contact the Fengtian Industrial Group and asked them to come forward to organize some labor companies, and the company would come forward to introduce immigrants from the Guannai, and for each person introduced, we would give a commission for a piece of the ocean. In addition, aren't we going to cooperate with Zhang Xun and Zhang Xun, just add such an article about immigration, the northwest is barren and poor, and Ma Jiajun is doing nonsense, which just attracts the people! ”
The two of them reached an agreement, and it soon turned into a report and sent it to Lao Zhang, who unconditionally trusted Wang Yongjiang in civil and economic affairs, not to mention that Zhang Tinglan joined, and this matter was quickly passed.
Fengtian mobilized from top to bottom, Liu Shucheng personally came forward to organize a labor company, and Qiao Ruixuan also contacted the Jin merchant group, asking them to help find where the disaster was affected, where there was war, there must be ordinary people in these places who could not survive, as long as they spent a little price, they could be brought to the northeast.
Soon the action was fully rolled out, Jin merchants have long been China's top businessmen, they were in their heyday, almost controlled China's economic lifeline, and they were also among the best in the political arena, but not those coal bosses can compare, and they also had huge influence during the Republic of China.
In their opinion, an immigrant can make a net profit of a large ocean, which is definitely an easier and more profitable business than kidnapping, and then there are a large number of businessmen active everywhere, constantly flickering to the northeast to immigrate, and later, Fengtian had to set a limit on the number of places, and did not dare to let these businessmen open up, otherwise it would have long exceeded Fengtian's resettlement capacity.
After the affairs were implemented, Zhang Tinglan became relaxed, he had already bought a large manor outside the city, and it happened that the streamer had been holding back in the city for several months, and now he could run outside the city with joy.
On the sunny side of the manor, Zhang Tinglan built two rows of greenhouses, and many people didn't know what this young master was going to toss, so haode a large piece of glass, casually embedded in a shed, it was simply a waste of things.
They didn't know that this was the greenhouse that Zhang Tinglan had built, and it was full of vitality at this time, green and full of rice seedlings, densely packed with vitality. (To be continued......)
