In the next month, Qingshi Town entered a prosperous era of development.
[Game] From time to time, a batch of materials or one or two elite experts are sent to guide the production and construction work here.
In just one month, the number of visitors to Shanhai Realm exceeded the 50 mark!
Everyone is a top elite in the industry, from senior fitters, to doctors, managers, researchers, to agriculturists who guide agricultural development. Although there are only 50 people, it is already a big improvement compared to the initial shortage.
Get better.
At noon that day, Pan Hao held a stack of locally produced yellow paper in his hand and reported on his recent work: "Some refugees came from the north, all with their families and children. After counting, there were 87 people.
, we will first arrange for them to live in an abandoned house, free of rent for one year."
Generally speaking, refugees with families have slightly better stability than singles.
"There should be some work to open up farmland, right?"
Several people around the table replied: "There are a lot of wastelands. From Qingshi Town to Hujinkou, we can open up wasteland all the way. But if the refugees come again, the food we have in stock may not last until the next harvest season."
"The amount of fertilizer is not enough. I don't know if [the game] will send some fertilizer over tomorrow?"
"Or let it deliver some food?"
"It is very smart! It is not very willing to teleport consumables such as food. Unless our food is exhausted and our group is about to starve to death, maybe it will teleport some."
"Well, I'll try to go to the city to buy some in the next few days. As long as you have money, you can still buy food..."
The gap between the rich and the poor in this era was huge. The vast majority of people were close to the subsistence line, but the landlord class had a large amount of food in stock. Even in the famine years, the same was true. It was not that there was no food, but that there was inequality between rich and poor.
"I heard that the scholar Ding Zhijing said that the porridge factories in the city sell grain. He has the corresponding channels to help us buy some, and the price is not expensive."
"Hey, that scholar helped a lot." When talking about this matter, everyone sighed in unison.
"I just went to the porridge factory to buy food."
The porridge factory is a place where the government and charitable organizations provide porridge to the hungry people.
Now they are selling grain, and the truth behind it is self-evident...
The fortune teller Jenny said: "You don't have to be too depressed. Isn't that what we are here for... to overthrow the world and create a new order? Whether it is liberalism or socialism, it is better than what we have now.
Feudal order was much better."
"What's more, there are also various dark and corrupt phenomena in our own world..."
Pan Hao shook his head and said: "There is really no need to think too much. If the Datong society outside is overthrown rashly, our conscience will be uneasy. Now we just need to do our own thing and act chivalrously. Wouldn't it be happy?"
"I would even like to thank you for this opportunity."
"That's true."
Everyone in the meeting cheered up for no other reason than building a more advanced civilization on a piece of white paper and giving full play to their subjective initiative in a place where there is nothing and nothing, will give people an indescribable feeling.
sense of achievement.
What kind of development Qingshi Town will become must be created by your own hands!
People who are willing to come to this ghostly place like the Mountain and Sea Realm always want to make achievements, rather than living a simple and lucky life.
If you don’t want to endure hardship, why not continue to live on the earth?
There are simply too many things to do. Compared with the huge workload, everyone is busy and fulfilled, so there is no time to complain.
After the simple development meeting, Pan Hao exhaled the turbid air in his chest. As the "supreme commander" on the surface, from the beginning he was unfamiliar and very busy, to now he is methodical and has high civil prestige. It can be regarded as a kind of
growing up……
"Oh, it's so shameless for a man in his seventies to claim to have grown up!" Pan Hao laughed at himself: "That's all the mayor's job is..."
"Great witch!"
"Great witch!"
Several villagers carrying hoes said hello with smiles and prepared to open up farmland outside the town.
One of the younger men shouted: "Great witch, do you want to pay your salary tomorrow? I still need to save some money to marry a wife."
Pan Hao said, "Wang Dazhuang, how can we owe you wages here? Food or wages, it's up to you. You can go to the fellow villagers and ask about my reputation, Pan Hao!"
"Do your job well, and the wages will depend on you."
"Believe it, believe it, of course I believe it!" The young man scratched his head in embarrassment, "But witch, with so many fields, there is no one to plant them after they are opened up. Mr. Huang's fertile fields have not all been rented out yet!
"
"What's the point of clearing this land of yours?"
Their tone was very respectful, and it was clear that they were sincere. They could not bear to waste the money. If no one planted the reclaimed fields, they would be overgrown with weeds next year.
"Haha, what do you know?" Pan Hao smiled and said nothing, and thought to himself, "Land is productivity! At worst, let the sore mother plow the land and cultivate the fields. That turtle has plenty of strength."
It is not easy to open up wasteland in this era, and the yield of wasteland is not high. The yield of fertile land is 200 catties per mu, and the yield of wasteland is 50 catties. Who is willing to do it?
From the perspective of farmers, turning wasteland into fertile land will inevitably require a lot of energy, and reclaiming wasteland is an act that is not cost-effective.
But now it’s completely different. On the one hand, we work for relief, and you can get money by clearing an acre of land.
After having money, these farmers could buy fertile land from the landlord Huang Youcai.
As for the cultivated land, it is the property of the Taoist temple.
As for turning wasteland into fertile farmland, they have no control over it. Even if they add precious farmyard manure, the yield will only be 200 kilograms per mu...
Anyway, in their opinion, it is not cost-effective to open up wasteland.
After dealing with these two farmers, Pan Hao looked into the distance expectantly: "In a few months, hybrid rice combined with chemical fertilizers, coupled with steam-class agricultural locomotives, will allow you bumpkins to experience the magic of modern technology!"
The taste of hybrid rice is not very good, and it is generally used as animal feed on the earth.
But in a different world of poverty, who would reject high-yielding rice that yields two thousand kilograms per mu, is resistant to pests, and is resistant to knocking down?
Once there is a huge grain harvest, the shock to farmers will definitely penetrate deep into their souls and scare them to the point of bursting into laughter.
"When the time comes, we will blame the harvest scene on the sore mother."
"Moreover, without chemical fertilizers and seeds, it is impossible for farmers to follow suit. They can only produce two hundred kilograms per mu, but ours can produce two thousand kilograms per mu. Over time, the reputation of Qingshi Town will spread far and wide."
"A metropolis with a population of one million and a hundred thousand people was born!"
It's a pity that fertilizer is a serious industrial product, requiring huge material investment, as well as petroleum and other fossil resources. For a while, it can only be transported through the [game], and there is no way to manufacture it in the mountains and seas.
Pan Hao wandered around the town.
Tricycles, this simple form of transportation, already have several samples.
Except for the chain and gears, which are key parts, the rest can be made of wood.
In fact, the tricycle is not a necessity, but the [game] sent these parts and made them along the way.
"Looking at it now, it seems pretty good?" Pan Hao murmured to himself.
It is impossible to build Qingshi Town like an earth city in the short term. The amount of work is too large and the current productivity is seriously insufficient.
But it can still be done by just making some stone roads, dealing with them, and smoothing out the potholes.
Some widowed, lonely and disabled people also have their own jobs, sweeping streets, doing sanitation, digging sewers, and digging manure pits!
Qingshi Town, backed by Hujinkou, has no worries about water sources, so it must be kept clean and hygienic to reduce the spread of diseases.
In the dangerous environment of the Mountain and Sea Realm, there are almost no disabled people who are truly unable to move. The only immobile person in the town is the "human pig" found from the water ghost thief.
I have been undergoing treatment for a month now, and I have also used rare and rare items such as spiritual beans and fairy beans. I don’t know when I will regain consciousness...
At this moment, Pan Hao saw a scholar wearing blue clothes riding a donkey in from the gate of the town. He was Huang Youcai's son-in-law, Ding Zhijing.
As soon as he saw Pan Hao, he whispered: "Great witch, there are high-ranking officials and nobles in the city who want to buy military merits! I heard that it is the county magistrate who wants to buy military merits."
"
"What should I say?" Pan Hao still attached great importance to Ding Zhijing.
Ding Zhijing said: "Great witch, our military merits are of no use. Why don't we hand them over to the magistrate for personal favors?"
…

[Although the Daqian Dynasty declined and its control over the suburbs weakened, it had not yet reached the moment of real subjugation. ]
