Chapter 1054: I heard the news of the deceased again
This position is too much for him, and he will definitely be able to show his strengths!
Dou Wuxing asked to go to see the farming island on the spot.
He Lingchuan had no objection, and personally took them on a boat and walked four or five islands in a row.
Along the way, Dou Wuxing carefully inquired about the geology, soil and hydrology of the Yangshan Islands, often thoughtfully.
When he set foot on Longji Island and saw the agricultural area, he squatted down to grasp the soil and observe, and even tasted a few bites. I couldn't help but frown.
He Lingchuan immediately asked him, "Is there any problem?" β
"Your islands seem to have fertile soil and abundant soil, so it shouldn't be difficult to grow a few crops and harvest a good harvest."
"What's the problem?"
"The peasants on the island are too rough, too rough," "Extensive, the farmland is not planned, the land is rented so horizontally, the boundaries are all wasted, and the harvesting efficiency is poor." β
He Lingchuan was very happy: "After this winter wheat is harvested, it will be up to Dou Er and you to reorganize." β
He took over the Yangshan Islands in September, just in time for the busy farming season, and he was not proficient in agricultural work, so he just wanted to plant crops in time, how could he take care of more?
Dou Wuxing didn't take Qiao: "Okay, you have too many things to rectify here." β
Dou Wenguan coughed on the side. His second brother is too straightforward, and he offends people with one mouth.
He Lingchuan didn't mind: "It's okay, that's why I asked Dou Er to help." β
Dou Wuxing asked again: "Are there hurricanes here from time to time?" β
"Yes." He Lingchuan told the truth, "There are several hurricanes visiting every year, and a hurricane just made landfall in Yangshan Islands more than a month ago. β
"The island is close to the sea, and due to the influence of seawater, the groundwater level is high and the salt content is large; Hurricanes are frequent, and storm surges cause seawater to pour back into the land, leaving the salt in the soil after evaporation. Well, these are prone to the formation of saline-alkali soil. At that time, the soil is compacted, the fertility is reduced, and the crops are getting worse and worse. β
"I heard that there are some plots on the island that can't grow crops, so it's because of this?" He Lingchuan had also heard about the salinization of the land before, but he didn't take it to heart for a while. The affairs at hand are really complicated, and these afterwords are not on the list for the time being. But now that Dou Wuxing is here, "Is there a way to improve?" β
"Yes, there are many methods, such as crushing wheat straw and returning it to the field, or filling the soil with pine needles, wood chips, horse manure, etc.; At the same time, ditches should also be dug in these fields, and they cannot be only irrigated without drainage; In addition, according to the soil conditions here, several islands with abundant fresh water such as Longji Island will be converted into rice fields after the wheat harvest next summer, that is, the so-called rice planting and salt washing, and then planting winter wheat after the autumn harvest. In this way, it will not only increase the income of a crop of rice, but also make the fertile land continue for a long time. β
Continuous cropping of wheat and rice is a very efficient farming method, but it also requires soil fertility. Since Dou Wuxing made this suggestion, he has his own way to deal with it.
"After hundreds of years of improvement, the rice seeds in our Shahe River basin now yield nearly 500 catties per mu, and they are good at resistance to diseases and insects and lodging. If the aura of heaven and earth is further abundant, the yield per mu will increase rapidly. β
He Lingchuan nodded: "I will send someone to Shahe to ask for it." β
Dou Wuxing was in high spirits, he only looked at a few fields, and then wanted to look for ocean currents and fish floods, and then check the flora and fauna on the island. Beijia and Mu Guo are both talented, there is not much more than him, and there is not much less than him. Even if he has experience and ideas, it is a pity that people speak lightly.
Yangshan Islands allowed him to practice his ideas and let them go.
Dou Wuxing immediately felt that he had come to the right place.
Dou Wenguan knew that He Lingchuan was the owner of the island and was riddled with complicated affairs, so he coughed lightly at the moment: "Brother He...... The owner of the island just went to get busy, and I accompanied my brother to walk around. β
He Lingchuan handed them a token: "Pass with this order." Remember that the guardrail area at the southwest end of Longji Island cannot be approached, which is the territory of the Yin Yu; Pansi Island can't be approached either, and the monsters on it will eat people; The southern islands of the Yangshan Islands cannot be approached, so naturally someone will come out to stop them. β
Without this sign, the Dou brothers would have been arrested and imprisoned as trepers.
The prison on the island is also brand new, having been built after the rebellion of the Balonians.
"The archipelago is so big that you can't walk it all in a few days. Now that you have decided to settle in the Yangshan Islands, let's go back to Sodin Island in the evening, and after signing the contract, I will invite you to drink. He Lingchuan waved his hand arrogantly, "Don't stay in the inn, I'll give you a house." Sodin Island is easy to live and travel, Centipede Island is quiet, you can choose. β
The two brothers were overjoyed and grateful.
He Lingchuan turned around to leave, and Dou Wenguan suddenly remembered something: "By the way, we also wrote a letter to Lao Du, he should be interested in the Yangshan Islands." β
"Lao Du?"
"Du Shan." Dou Wenguan said with a smile, "Shan Yuguo wanted to invite him to be an official, but he didn't go because he thought the official position was too young, and he went to Beiyang to watch whales a few months ago." β
He Lingchuan was overjoyed: "Do you usually have contact?" β
He traveled widely in Lingxu City, and among his friends who often drank alcohol was Du Shan. This person likes to go off the rails with swords in his actions, and he has no moral burden, which left a deep impression on He Lingchuan.
"Before the two of us went back to Shahe to look for jobs, Du Shan also gave us ideas." Guan Wenguan coughed lightly, "We didn't adopt it." β
He Lingchuan understood: "It's not a good idea, is it?" β
The Dou brothers shook their heads together: "No." β
Du Shan's tricks have always been quite evil.
But He Lingchuan always felt that it didn't hurt to listen to it.
The boat boss who supported the three of them was originally Min Tianxi's subordinate, named Yu Liang. He Lingchuan left him as a guide for the two of them, and went back to Soding Island to handle official business.
Since becoming the owner of this island, the chores are endless, busy from morning to night, and I only hate myself for not having three heads and six arms.
He made up his mind to recruit more talents, distribute the work, and be a big shopkeeper himself.
If you can't be lazy, what's the point of being a big boss?
He Lingchuan's office is located on the shore of Dinghu Lake on Soding Island, and on the second floor, you can see the rippling blue waves and weeping willows.
This is a little benefit he has made for himself.
As soon as he sat down to drink hot tea, Renee actually sent someone to report:
"Owner, you've got a guest!"
"Guest?"
"A total of ten people, claiming to be under the Songyang Mansion, came at your invitation." The steward said, "You were not on the island before, and these guests were arranged in the Yingxiang Pavilion. β
"Please!" He Lingchuan threw away his cup and stood up, "No, I'll go to greet you personally!" β
What a good day it is today, the VIPs he invited have actually reached two batches!
Yingxiang Pavilion has only been completed recently, it is specially built for distinguished guests, the accommodation and meals are two levels higher than the ordinary inn, and at the same time a quiet bay, white waves and fine sand, only the VIP in the pavilion can enter and play.
It is a high-end business venue and provides a quiet space for many meetings and meetings. As soon as you walk in, it is like two worlds with the hot Sodin Pier.
He Lingchuan rushed to Yingxiang Pavilion to take a look, and confirmed that these "Songyang Mansion distinguished guests" were fake, because there were two familiar faces among them:
Li Fubo, the chief master of the furnaceββ
The personal disciples!
When these two people saw He Lingchuan, they immediately stepped forward and saluted: "Li Mingyang and Li Mingrong greet Elder He!" β
They were all twenty-seven or eight years old, and when He Lingchuan first went to Songyang Mansion in Shihuan City, Kite Kingdom, he saw them standing behind Li Fubo.
Songyang Mansion sent the two of them over, which shows the recognition of their ability.
He Lingchuan is an elder of Songyang Mansion, and he enjoys many privileges, and his status is much higher than that of these disciples, so he held the arms of the two with a smile on his face: "What are you doing like this?" Come on, come on, all sit, all sit. β
The two sat down, but the five behind them remained standing, their faces respectful.
The two sides said a few words, basically He Lingchuan asked, and the other party answered.
When he left the Panlong Desert, he decided to go south to the sea, so he sent a flying message to Li Qingge, the lord of Songyang Mansion, stating that he was about to go to the Blade Harbor in the rear of Mu Guoda, and asked Songyang Mansion if he wanted to open a rudder in a distant foreign land?
After the letter was sent, it sank into the sea.
He Lingchuan didn't care too much, first, he was too busy, and he would only miss Songyang Mansion when he was thinking about the armament of the guards; Second, Songyang Mansion is also far away from Blade Harbor, and there are several countries in between, especially the two giants of Bejia and Mu, and it is not easy for the news to go back and forth.
He didn't expect that Li Qingge didn't reply to him at all, but directly sent someone over!
According to Li Mingyang and Li Mingrong, after receiving the news, the lord of the mansion asked them to immediately go south to Baisha Bay and come by boat. The journey was very smooth, and the boat arrived at Blade Harbor after two and a half months.
He Lingchuan is famous here, and as soon as the Songyang Mansion team inquired a little, they went to Suoding Island to defect.
Li Mingrong took out a letter and held it to He Lingchuan with both hands:
"This is a letter from the lord of the house, please read it by the elders."
He Lingchuan opened the letter and sealed the mud, took out the silver paper and looked at it twice.
The font above is beautiful without losing the roots, and the beginning is:
"Big and young, seeing words is like meeting."
He Lingchuan could imagine Li Qingge's demeanor when he wrote the letter.
Li Qingge said in the letter that Songyang Mansion had long wanted to develop in Muguo, but unfortunately the border was too far away, and she was always busy and had no chance. He Lingchuan can expand the exotic land for Songyang Mansion, which is really a great joy for everyone.
As for the candidates sent to the east, Songyang Mansion also thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to be led by the Li brothers and led several protΓ©gΓ©s of the master craftsmen to come.
This Li Mingyang and Li Mingrong are not only Li Fubo's disciples, but also Li Fubo's nephew, since the age of eleven with their uncle to practice casting, Li Fubo often took them with him to guide carefully.
In terms of age, they can't be called masters, but their skills and heat are first-class, and they have dozens of excellent works, so it can be said that the casting skills are very stable and the yield rate is high.
This time, when I crossed the ocean, several master craftsmen from Songyang Mansion did not come in person. Once people are old and qualified, they don't like to run out of the wind and waves, like Ding Zuodong, who has reached the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, but still has the heart to do a career, after all, there are a few.
