Seeing the efficiency of the large tractors, the refugees responsible for opening up the wasteland burst out with enthusiasm, and they began to work hard for the thirty acres of land they were about to obtain.
However, neither Zhao Xin nor Chen Qingsong agreed to allow the refugees to work with lights on at night. First, there were too many swamps, and second, there were wild beasts in the forest. Therefore, the current work status of the refugees is still to work at sunrise and rest at sunset.
Under Chen Qingsong's clumsy operation, a week later, all the 5,000 acres of land opened up in Beihai Town were sown. The seeds he sown were the wheat seeds bought by Zhao Xin.
Zhao Xin, who had never farmed before, always thought that soybeans should be planted in the first year, but Chen Qingsong raised objections.
“Don’t you want to plant soybeans just to activate the soil?”
It is said that there are rhizobia in the roots of leguminous crops, and the rhizobia invade the root system of leguminous crops, causing the root system to expand into small nodules. This is the root nodule of leguminous plants. An important function of this nodule is to absorb airborne particles.
The nitrogen element is converted into ammonium nitrogen that can be absorbed by crops, thereby achieving the purpose of enriching nitrogen in the soil.
"Yes, yes?" Zhao Xin responded a little unconfidently.
"But now our black soil is rich in nutrients, not to mention the nitrogen you mentioned. With a one-meter-thick humus layer, what else do you want to do?"
"Ah? What do you think we should do? The black soil over there is severely degraded."
"Even if we blindly opened up wasteland back then, it would have been seven or eight years before the land began to degrade! And the overuse of chemical fertilizers was also a very important reason. We are now doing intensive farming, applying only organic fertilizers, and doing crop rotation every year. We are planting grain this year.
, we will plant beans next year; we must also plant grass and green manure.”
Chen Qingsong looked at Zhao Xin's confused look and said impatiently: "Okay, okay, you should be busy. I have a lot of things to do every day. How dare you challenge agricultural experts? You are still young."
Be careful."
So, Zhao Xin went out of Chen Qingsong's house in disgrace.
Two days later, Zhao Xin issued land use rights certificates to the more than 100 refugee families who first followed him in the newly built Beihai Town Mukereng office.
The cover of the certificate has six gilded characters of "Land Ownership Certificate" written by Chen Qingsong. It is composed of two A4-sized oak boards and three thick embossed papers.
The carpenters polished the thin oak wood planks to be very smooth and smooth, and used the varnish provided by Zhao Xin to paint both sides of the planks until they were shiny enough to be seen. On the white embossed paper, the names and photos of the refugees were on the first one.
The size of the family; the second sheet indicates the land area and location number; the third chapter explains Beihai Town’s laws on land ownership and use rights.
When the male head of each household took it from Zhao Xinxin with trembling hands, Sheng Haizhou would take the trouble to explain the above content. Then, all the family members of this household began to shed tears of joy.
Outside Zhao Xin's office, there was a sea of people that day. The refugees who had not yet received their land all showed envious expressions as they looked at the families walking out of the house. Those who knew each other walked over one after another and asked to see the Lord.
The title deed was given.
Soon, Li Ji posted a new notice on the notice board outside the wood carvings. It said that Zhao Xin would arrange one day a week to issue land deeds to each family in the order they arrived in Beihai.
Shen Jingdan and Lao Huang stood in a relatively empty place outside the crowd, looking at the scene in front of them with astonishment in their hearts.
"Brother Huang, I underestimated this leader Zhao before. This person has great plans."
Businessman Lao Huang said a strange "Oh" and asked: "Brother Shen, what did you see?"
"He is splitting the earth and dividing the grass!"
Lao Huang asked ignorantly: "Brother, what do you mean by this?"
Shen Jingdan twirled his beard and said: "I once read a passage in a book: Why does the king have a country? He seeks blessings and merits for the world. People cannot stand without soil, and cannot eat without grain. This shows that there is soil. .”
His words come from "White Tiger Tongyi". This book was compiled by Ban Gu and others in the Han Dynasty based on the content of Confucian classics debates. Its content is to combine the righteousness of monarch and minister, father and son, husband and wife under the feudal system with the stars of heaven and earth, yin and yang and the five elements. This natural phenomenon is used to deify the feudal order and hierarchy.
"Ah?" Lao Huang became even more confused. "Brother Shen, I haven't read as many books as you. If you have anything to say, just say it. Don't be secretive!"
"I asked his subordinate named Sheng Haizhou before. He said that the leader of Zhao promised to these people that he would not charge rent for the first five years, and that starting from the sixth year, he would only pay 10% of the food every year."
"What? Only 10%? Why is he doing this?"
During the Qianlong period, no matter in the north or south of the Yangtze River, the level of land rent depended on the economic status of the tenant farmers. If the tenant farmers could provide their own livestock, farm tools and seeds, then the land rent would be lower; but the vast majority of tenant farmers could not scrape together production materials. .So the usual ground rent at this time is between six and eight cents.
Since land rent is distributed according to the actual harvest, the quality of the harvest is directly related to the landlord's exploitation income. Therefore, the landlords attach great importance to what crops the tenants grow, how to manage them, and even the harvest, and directly interfere. Many landlords Worried that the tenant farmers would not work well, they would personally go to the fields to farm and pull cattle to supervise the tenant farmers.
So let alone how kind and righteous the feudal landlords in ancient China were, everything was done for the sake of harvest. If the harvest was not enough to pay the rent, it was common for them to come to the house and beat them to collect the rent.
In Lao Huang's view, if someone like Zhao Xin, who provides everything from tools to seeds, actually says he won't charge rent for the first five years, what is he trying to do?
Shen Jingdan smiled lightly and said, "I think this Master Zhao wants to become the king!"
…
In mid-May, the 600-mile expedited document sent by Fukangan and the two envoys sent arrived in Pyongyang.
At this time, the king of Korea was called Li Zhen. He was the son of Prince Si Tao who was suffocated to death in a rice cupboard in history. He was thirty-two years old and had been on the throne for eight years.
Fukang'an's order in the document was concise and clear. He ordered the Korean state to send a thousand navy troops to stand by near Solenji Island and join the Qing army to attack the Oros at the mouth of the Xila River.
After urgent discussions between the Li Dynasty and the imperial court, they all believed that Marshal Fu, who was a popular figure around Emperor Qianlong, could not be disobeyed.
So Li Zhen ordered to send out troops, including 400 artillerymen, 100 archers, and 112 troops to transport food and take ships. He dispatched Liu Linhan, the general of the DPRK, to lead the army, together with two envoys from the Celestial Dynasty, on May 25th. Depart from Nacheonpo, Seosu, Gyeongheung-gun.
Fukang'an, who was waiting at Ninggu Pagoda, finally received news from Feyaka's hunters in late May.
With a sound of "Pa!", Fukang'an suddenly stood up from behind the desk and slapped his hand on the table.
"You said those people are opening up wasteland and farming near the mouth of the Xila River?!"
"Commander, that's what he told the slave." Bi Tie Shi, who was responsible for translating, was frightened and trembling.
"How many people can he see clearly?!"
He chatted quietly with the Feyaka hunter who was kneeling in the commander's tent for a while, then stood up and said: "Commander, he said there must be at least a few hundred people."
"It's outrageous to have no king's constitution!" Fukang'an sneered. He then slowly sat down, waved his hand gently and said, "Reward!"
The Feyaka hunter just kowtowed and muttered for a long time.
Fukang'an asked the post curiously: "What did he say?"
He replied in a pen-text manner: "He said he didn't want any money and wanted the commander to reward him with some pieces of cloth and some grain."
"Give him wine and meat! Let him be the guide of the army. After the extermination is over, I will give him a lot of rewards!"
After he took the Feyaka hunter out of the commander's tent in a written gesture, Hailancha raised his fist to Fukang'an and said, "Commander, let me lead the team first this time? Just sit here and wait for my good news.
"
Fukang'an shook his head and said with a smile: "Hai Gong. The emperor asked us to come together. How can I sit in the back and enjoy the happiness? It doesn't make sense."
After saying that, he raised his hand to the south again, cupped it with a solemn expression, and said: "The emperor has shown you great kindness to me, the Fucha family, and I will do my best to repay it, so that I can feel no regret in my heart."
Hai Lancha was about to argue, but Fukang'an raised his hand to stop him, pointed to the wooden map in the commander's tent and said: "The land route is too far. Although it is cold outside the pass, it is different from Myanmar, but this place is also densely covered with mountains, forests and swamps. If
Going by land, when the army arrived, it stopped ten times and then stopped five times.
We set off from Hunchun by boat and landed on the east bank of the mouth of the Furjiaha River. Then you and I will lead our troops over the Sikhet Mountains and attack the enemy's nest!"
Ten days later, Fukang'an led his army to Hunchun.
He had previously recruited hundreds of Han slaves in Ningguta as civilian servants to accompany the army; after arriving in Hunchun, he issued an order to all villages to recruit a hundred Kurkhaqi hunters to accompany the army.
Hailancha then recruited two hundred Sauron warriors in Ningguta and Hunchun through the imperial envoys of Fukang'an. The "Sauron soldiers" in the Qing Dynasty were just a name for the establishment, mainly composed of Kurkhaqi and
It is composed of Xibo people. These people have been wandering among the white mountains and black waters outside the pass since childhood. They are good at riding and shooting and are very tough.
In the third year of Chongde, because Bomu Boguoer of the Sauron tribe rebelled again after paying tribute to the Qing Dynasty, Huang Taiji launched the "Battle of Sauron" and sent troops to conquer. The corpses of various tribes killed in this battle were everywhere
, and finally had to surrender.
By the time of Qianlong's reign, the Manchu Qing's Sauron Battalion was divided into six branches: Butha Dashi Eight Banners, Hulunbuir Sauron Eight Banners, Jilin Sauron Battalion, Heilongjiang Sauron Battalion, and Uliasutai Saulon Battalion.
The Solon Camp is one of the four battalions stationed in Xinjiang.
On June 10, after completing the oath of battle, Fukang'an and Hailancha led their troops to board a ship from Hunchun. For a time, various types of warships and fishing boats were densely packed in the South China Sea and set sail toward the northeast.
This time Hunchun Water Camp had all kinds of large and small fishing boats. At the same time, Fukang'an also recruited a lot of fishing boats from coastal villages to transport supplies. Because the fishing boats were too small, they were worried that the wind and waves would capsize them, so they
