The auspiciousness of the mascot Chapter 10 The farm

The overall development plan of auspiciousness has set the tone, but the details still need to be improved, which is a long-term achievement, not an overnight thing.

The collective farm project is the first major event to be done, for which the Government Council has set up a special team, Zhao Sheng personally took charge as the team leader, and several ministers of state served as team members.

After half a month of analysis and calculations, the budget for the collective farm project has come out, and a total of 13,200 gold coins will be needed.

Among them, the labor cost is about 3,000 gold coins, the grain is 1,150 gold coins, the tools and materials are 1,000 gold coins, and the auxiliary plate factory construction is 300 gold coins.

About 7,000 gold coins were built on the farm's houses, toilets, canteens, schools, hospitals, security offices, breeding farms and other necessary facilities, and the rest was emergency funds.

Wang Xuan attaches great importance to the construction of the new farm, if coal and porcelain are the initiators of auspicious development, then the farm is the lubricant. The people take food as the sky, and only when they are well fed and clothed can they have the spare strength to carry out production and construction.

Regarding the name of the farm, Wang Xuan did not want to bother his brain, because it was located one kilometer southwest of Jixiang City, it was directly named "Chengnan Farm", such a hasty approach naturally attracted the dissatisfaction of several ministers of state, but Wang Xuan's stubborn temper came up and was unwilling to change, and everyone had to give up.

The farm plans to grow wheat, rice and oilseed rape, with the former feeding and the latter eating and extracting oil.

After the field survey, the Ministry of Agriculture planned the site. About 30,000 acres of land near the foot of the mountain are mainly planted with wheat, where the terrain is relatively high and there is no need to worry about waterlogging; the east side is adjacent to the rape planting area, which is not much different, and the terrain is flat; the south is the rice planting area, which is much larger.

The whole farm covers an area of about 180,000 acres, with Xishan in the west and Yehe River in the south, which originates in Xishan and reaches the Liuyin River in the east, and is only two kilometers away from the Xingyao River.

The farm is trapezoidal, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and the hypotenuse on the east side is level with the direction of the Lyuin River, with a difference of no more than a kilometer. A total of nine residential areas are planned, each with about 1,000 people, and schools, medical centers, public toilets, canteens, horse-drawn carriage stations, warehouses, threshing floors, and daily necessities stores are all standard.

Each residential area also has a small farm, which provides jobs for the elderly, children, and other people who do not have the ability to work intensively, while exporting meat products and eggs to enrich the people's food basket.

In order to make the construction of the farm carried out on time and in an orderly manner, everyone worked many details, and strived to find the hidden blind spots of their minds and perfect them.

The Propaganda Department has launched a propaganda campaign, and the few roads where horse-drawn carriages hang propaganda banners are constantly coming and going, and signs in the city are plastered all over the streets and alleys, and even on the trees in the settlements. Some of the larger restaurants and restaurants also have storytellers carrying propaganda, and the momentum is huge, and in just a few days, the news that the government wants to build farms has been spreading, and everyone knows about it. The Ministry of Agriculture had to set up additional staff in each settlement to deal with the consultation and registration of the residents.

Residents who do not wish to join the collective farms will be given compensation for housing, land and reemployment.

After a while, you can get more than 30 gold coins in compensation, which will be distributed in three batches, once before and after the relocation, and then make up the balance after three months. The reason for this design is also because I am worried that everyone will squander it uncontrollably after having a huge amount of money in their hands.

For those who were willing to stay and participate in the collective farms, their houses and land were confiscated, and the government provided food, clothing, shelter and transportation. After the official production, each person will have one silver coin per month, and the child will enter the school for free, see a doctor for free and provide a carriage (shuttle) to and from Jixiang City. During the leisure time, the government will arrange for people to work for a short period of time, whether it is a construction site or a factory, and the income is very high.

For families who choose to leave after two years, the government will help them build a new house and arrange for at least one family member to work.

As soon as the plan came out, it ignited the enthusiasm of the people, and the staff of the Ministry of Agriculture in the busy settlement were overwhelmed and overwhelmed.

Wang Xuan knows that the most attractive thing is the free school and medical care for children, followed by the new housing and work allocation.

No matter what era it is, hoping that their sons will become dragons and daughters will become phoenixes is the greatest expectation of parents for their children, and studying is something that only nobles are qualified to do.

Although the auspicious law is the framework of Bactria that is continued, it is already in harmony. There is no slavery, and there is no so-called aristocracy, and now the people are given equal access to education, and everyone's madness can be understood.

After some statistics, only 13 households did not want to join the collective farm and relocated, and they either had property in Jixiangcheng or were merchants, and they could not afford this compensation.

There were more than 20,000 people who were willing to participate in the collective farm, which made it really difficult for the ministers of state, so Zhao Sheng also asked Wang Xuan to apply for the construction of the next collective farm, and when Wang Xuan showed the list of expenses on the farm, Zhao Sheng slipped away without looking back.

The most difficult part is on the right track, and everyone is secretly relieved and ready to start the second phase of construction.

There are more than 5,000 auspicious soldiers on active duty, which is really too much, if you exclude the old and weak and women, then on average, one out of every six people is a soldier, how terrifying.

The Battle of Jichi has ended, there will be no more fighting in the short term, and it is too much luxury to raise such a large army. So Wang Xuan decided to lay off 3,000 people and organize them into the Production and Construction Corps, with Liu Liu, the number three person in the military, as the commander of the corps, and its first task was to participate in the construction of collective farms.

A thousand of them were involved in logging and quarrying, and the government paid each of them a monthly allowance of one silver for their work. After the Ministry of Construction received the task of building roads and bridges, the remaining 2,000 people of the Construction Corps were assigned to the road and bridge group, and at the same time, according to the census records, all kinds of talents were recruited and assigned to various construction teams for technical guidance, as compensation, each person will enjoy an additional subsidy of one gold coin per month, and the mood of the people is very high.

With the completion of the relocation work, the project began to build various types of buildings, and based on cost considerations, the Government Council decided that all buildings should be made of wood above the ground except for the stone foundation.

The most important thing for auspicious is all kinds of timber, which is also the advantage of auspicious, and a large part of the reason for the construction of the board factory is also to value the rich forest resources.

As for the candidate for the director of the plate factory, the Government Council also went back and forth according to the census list, and finally appointed Wei Xing as the first director of the Jixiang plate factory.

Wei Xing is forty-six years old, this age is not small, and the average life expectancy of Jixiang, the pioneer leader, is only forty-two years old.

One of the first things he did when he took office was to unify the dimensions of wall panels, beams, doors and windows, and to develop an assembly line production process, so that the design would increase output and facilitate the rapid assembly and disassembly of the house. Due to the heavy construction task and tight time, the plate factory recruited 2,000 people from the households who applied to join the farm in just one month, and hired eight technicians.

Now auspicious has just entered the dry rainy season, and everyone is working overtime to hurry, striving to take advantage of the favorable conditions of less rain to weed and repair roads.

Auspicious and rainy, the air is humid, and there are snakes, insects, rats and ants disturbing each other, and the wooden house must be built on higher ground. In order to prevent the breeding and spread of diseases, quicklime is sprinkled around corners, roadsides, toilets, canteens, etc., to prevent insects and sterilization, and weeds are cleared and low-lying pools are landfilled.

The foundation of the house is carved and ground from stones, and the stones should not be too thick, otherwise it is not conducive to transportation.

When the house was built, the stones were buried two feet into the ground, one foot exposed in the ground, and there was a three-inch groove in the middle to hold the wall panels, and because it was a two-story building, the load-bearing columns were made of thick tree trunks to ensure that the house was strong.

This is an ancient version of a simple house, similar to a modern construction site worker's house, with two floors and ten suites on each floor, each with two rooms, one large and one small.

The furniture is a standard design, equipped with beds, tables, chairs, wardrobes, wooden basins and drying racks made by Wang Xuan, etc., not for beauty but for practicality.

Tree handling is not a simple task and has many limitations.

Precious and precious timber should be transplanted to the designated area, and those that cannot be transplanted should be retained. Trees on both sides of the planned road, lake, river, and park should also be preserved, and small saplings in the planting area should be transplanted elsewhere, and the rest must be confirmed by technicians before they can be cut down.

Roughly until the end of December, the transplanting and retention need to be completed, and the remaining unmarked ones will be directly cut and shipped to the plate factory.

Rice cultivation has also changed, and instead of being as rough as before, the seedlings are raised intensively and then transplanted, and the wheat and rape seeds have been selected and planted the next year after the land is cleared.

As the rain gradually decreases and the water level of the river continues to decrease, the rest of the river embankment is also on the agenda.

First, the loose soil is cleaned, then the sides of the waterway are rammed, and then the embankment is built with stones, with an inclination angle of less than 60 degrees, so that the embankment is stable and the stones will not slide easily.

Planting some flowers and fruit trees with strong soil grasping ability can not only reduce soil erosion, but also produce certain economic effects.

As for the school, Wang Xuan and the Secretary of State both believe that teachers are the most important thing, so Wang Xuan intends to gather young literati with teaching experience and more literacy to train them intensively, and teach them how to impart knowledge, which is both marketing and psychology.

In addition, Wang Xuan also planned to write down the castrated version of the three-character classic, the thousand-character text, and the hundred family names silently and add them to the teaching materials. Some fairy tales, puzzle games, and public welfare activities will also become children's daily learning routines, cultivating and guiding children's values and world views.

Wang Xuan has also read a lot of some enlightenment books in Daxia, and he plans to pick the stones of other mountains, learn the strengths of the people, save his own losses, rewrite the teaching materials, and learn from the teaching mode of later generations to carry out an educational revolution that can change.
