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 work at night. One is that there are too many swamps, and the other is that wild beasts are infested in the forest. Therefore, the current work status of the refugees is still working at sunrise and resting at sunset.
Under Chen Qingsong's clumsy operation, a week later, all the 5,000 acres of land developed in Beihai Town were cleared and sown. The seeds he sowed were the wheat bought by Zhao Xin.
Zhao Xin, a guy 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?”
Rhizobium bacteria live on the roots of leguminous crops. Rhizobium invades the root system of leguminous crops, causing the root system to swell into small nodules. This is the root nodule of leguminous plants. An important function of this root nodule is to absorb nitrogen in the air and convert it into ammonium nitrogen that can be absorbed by crops, thereby 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 wasteland was opened blindly, it would only take seven or eight years for the land to begin to degrade! And the overuse of chemical fertilizers is also a very important reason. We are now doing intensive farming, applying only organic fertilizers, and doing crop rotation every year. This year we are growing grain. , we will plant beans next year; we must also interplant with 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 completed office of Mukoleng in Beihai Town.
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 plank to be very smooth and smooth, and used the varnish provided by Zhao Xin to paint both sides of the plank so that it could be seen. On the white embossed paper, the first sheet contains the name, photo, and family size of the refugees; the second sheet indicates the land area and location number; the third chapter explains Beihai Town’s land ownership and use rights. of laws.
When the male owner 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 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 land deed given by the lord.
Soon, Liji posted a new notice on the wooden notice board. It said that Zhao Xin would arrange one day every 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 spot outside the crowd, looking at the scene in front of them with astonishment.
"Brother Huang, I underestimated this leader Zhao before. This person has big plans."
Businessman Lao Huang said a strange "Oh" and asked: "Brother Shen, what did you see?"
"He is tearing the earth apart!"
Lao Huang asked ignorantly: "Brother, what do you mean by this?"
Shen Jingdan twirled his beard and said: "I once heard a scholar say something: 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 compare the righteousness between monarch and minister, father and son, and husband and wife under the feudal system with various natural phenomena such as heaven, earth, stars, yin and yang, and five elements, and is used to deify the feudal order and hierarchy.
"Ah?" Lao Huang was 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 shy!"
"I asked his subordinate from the island nation named Sheng Haizhou before. He said that the leader of Zhao promised these people that they would not charge rent for the first five years, and starting from the sixth year, they would only pay 10% of the food every year."
"What? Only 10%? Why is he doing this?"
During the Qianlong period, regardless of whether it was north or south, the level of land rent depended on the economic status of the tenant farmers themselves. If the tenant farmers can provide their own livestock, farm tools and seeds, then the land rent will be lower; but the vast majority of tenant farmers are unable to collect production materials. Therefore, the usual land 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 income from exploitation. Therefore, the landowners paid great attention to what crops the tenant farmers planted, how to manage it, and even the harvest, and directly interfered with it. Many landowners are worried that their tenants will not work well, so they will personally go to the fields to work and pull cattle to supervise the tenants.
So let alone how benevolent and righteous the feudal landlords in ancient China were, everything was done for the sake of harvest. If the harvest is not enough to pay the rent, it is common to come to the house and beat them to collect money.
In Lao Huang's view, what is he trying to do if someone like Zhao Xin, who provides everything from tools to seeds, actually says he won't collect rent for the first five years?
Shen Jingdan smiled lightly and said, "I think Mr. 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 North Korea was called Li Zhen. This was the son of Prince Si Tao who was suffocated to death in a rice cabinet in history. He was thirty-two years old this year and had been on the throne for eight years.
Fukang'an's order in the document was concise and clear. He asked 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 some deliberations, the important ministers in the court all believed that Marshal Fu, who was a popular figure around Emperor Qianlong, could not disobey him.
So Li Zhen ordered to send out troops, including four hundred artillerymen, one hundred archers, and one hundred and twelve ships to transport food and sail. He dispatched the general of the DPRK, Liu Linhan, to lead the army, together with two envoys from the Celestial Dynasty, on May 25th. Depart from Nacheonpo, Seosu, Gyeongheung-gun.
Fukangan, who was waiting at Ninggu Pagoda, finally received news from the Feyaka hunters in late May.
With a sound of "Pa!", Fukangan 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.
"Can he clearly see how many people there are?!"
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 hugged Fukang'an and said, "Commander, let me lead the team first this time? Just sit here and wait for my good news. "
Fukangan 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? There is no reason for this."
After speaking, he raised his hand to the south again, cupped it with a solemn expression, and said: "The emperor has shown you a great kindness to me, the Fucha family, and I will do my best to repay it, so that I can feel no regrets 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, there were ten stops and five stops.
We set off from Hunchun by boat and landed on the west bank of the mouth of the Fuljiaha 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 passed the imperial envoys of Fukang'an and recruited two hundred Sauron warriors in Ningguta and Hunchun. The "Saulun soldiers" in the Qing Dynasty were just a name for the organization, mainly composed of Kurkhaqi and Xibo people. These people have been traversing 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 Sauron tribe rebelled again after paying tribute to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Huang Taiji launched the "Battle of Sauron" and sent troops to conquer. This battle killed the courage of each tribe in one go, and they had to surrender in the end.
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 garrison camps in Xinjiang.
On June 10, Fukang'an and Hailancha led their troops to board the ship from Hunchun after completing their oaths. For a time, all kinds of warships and fishing boats were densely packed in the South China Sea, sailing towards the northeast.
This time, all kinds of large and small fishing boats from Hunchun Water Camp came out; at the same time, Fukang'an also recruited a lot of fishing boats from coastal villages to transport supplies. Because the fishing boats are too small, they are worried that the wind and waves will capsize them, so the fleet during sailing always moves along the coast.
