Chapter 192 A Bumper Harvest and No Worries About Food and Clothing
After the first wave of grass carp is grown, there is basically no need to consider the issue of subsequent fry. After all, a fish will lay a lot of eggs, and there will definitely be no shortage of fry. He will even have a headache when the fish are too big. What to do if there are too many.
However, these things can be left to the professional talents in the territory to do it. He only needs to wait silently for the final harvest results.
Although there are no scales in this world, fortunately, there is a function like a backpack. Often you only need to put supplies such as food into the backpack to get an accurate weight directly. Moreover, this weighing method can be used by everyone in the territory. It is extremely convenient and eliminates the problem of shortage of weight and provides a lot of help for future business in the territory.
Harvesting grain and grass carp continues, because this matter is regarded as the top priority in the territory, and almost everyone is involved.
Even the people who did not understand agriculture and fishing gradually mastered the secrets under the guidance of others.
In the blink of an eye, in just an hour, the food in the land was successfully harvested, and soon after, almost all the grass carp in the fish pond were caught.
Xue Siyu also reported all the receipt data to him immediately: "Lord, regarding the rice harvest this time, according to the estimates of relevant professionals, we will eventually be able to get about 3,500 kilograms of rice and potatoes. It also exceeded one hundred catties, and the harvest of sweet potatoes also reached hundreds of catties.”
"As for grass carp, a total of 425 grass carp were caught, with a total weight of 2,060 kilograms. Most of the remaining grass carp are in the spawning period, and a small number of grass carp are not considered to be suitable for the time being due to unfavorable growth. Go fishing.”
"."
Ning Ze listened to Xue Siyu's words and couldn't help but nodded.
In fact, he has already roughly predicted the harvest of these grains. After all, when harvesting these grains, he will also get a large amount of edible grains.
Among them, the harvest of rice gave him a big surprise, because the rice was still in the shell after the initial harvest, and it needed to be further shelled before it became rice. However, under the effect of the Midas Touch halo, he could directly obtain it. The weight of the finished rice is calculated based on the unhulled rice.
As a result, he obtained more than 4,200 kilograms of edible rice, including more than one type of rice. He obtained several types of pearl rice, as well as fragrant rice.
The only disadvantage is that if you directly obtain edible finished rice, you cannot cultivate it into seed germ. This kind of edible rice can only be used for food.
But after calculation, he got more than 4,200 kilograms of edible rice from the rice alone, while the inedible rice was less, about 3,500 kilograms.
"I definitely can't eat all this rice by myself. It seems like matters regarding intra-territorial transactions should also be put on the agenda."
As for grass carp, the unusable grass carp weighed over two thousand kilograms. Based on the average weight of each grass carp, the difference was almost five kilograms. It was a very large grass carp, which was completely in line with his expectations. .
The Midas Touch also brought him more than 2,300 kilograms of edible fish meat, including all kinds of freshwater fish meat. The bad ones are silver carp and crucian carp meat, and the better ones are all kinds of boneless fish. Freshwater fish meat.
In addition to these, some other grains were also harvested, but generally the quantities were not large. For example, potatoes and sweet potatoes, which are high-yielding grains, were harvested in smaller quantities, so the harvests were not large.
Ningze plans to use only a small part of the grain for his own consumption, and the rest needs to be reserved as seeds to continue cultivating a larger scale of planting.
"Very good, you are interested." He nodded and said.
Then he said: "In the following days, you should arrange these food matters as soon as possible. For example, the harvested rice should be shelled as soon as possible, dried and dehumidified when it is time, and seeds should be made when it is time. In short, time Don’t wait for anyone, seize every minute and every second.”
"The farm will also recruit a new group of people in the future, about ten people. You should carefully select suitable talents. Also, the issue of planting land should not be limited to that piece of stone pulp land. You can consider cultivating a larger one. The land comes out.”
Xue Siyu also listened very carefully to every word. After he finished speaking, she asked: "Lord, I have an idea about ordinary land."
"explain."
Xue Siyu said: "Land cultivation requires a lot of land, but the land area in the territory is limited after all. Instead of cultivating large tracts of land within the territory, perhaps more ordinary land can be reclaimed outside the territory. As long as the protection is good, Then even the land outside the territory will still be firmly in our hands."
"What's more, the rapeseed fields are now flooded. It may not be realistic to rely on wild rapeseed flowers, so we need to find a large amount of suitable land to plant rapeseed flowers."
These points she said are very constructive, especially the rapeseed flower. Because of the heavy rains during this period, the area has long been flooded. Even if it can be restored to its original state later, it may not be able to grow. A piece of rapeseed flower.
Rapeseed flowers require a lot of land. If they are planted in the territory, there will be no need for people to live in the territory.
After thinking for a moment, Ning Ze said: "What you said makes sense. A large amount of land can be reclaimed outside the territory. Even if it is not used now, it will be used sooner or later in the future. However, some land within the territory also needs to be reclaimed. , as for the specific amount of land to be reclaimed, let’s calculate it based on 10% of the total area of the territory for the time being. In other words, the land that has been reclaimed must account for 10% of the total area of the territory, whether it is ordinary land or stone marrow land. Counted.”
The total area of the territory now is 40,000 square meters, 10% is 4,000 square meters, which is almost more than five acres of land, not too much, not too little.
The reason for this consideration is that the land outside the territory may face some unpredictable situations. Once the land outside the territory is destroyed during a special period, at least the land within the territory can still supply some food, which is self-sufficient. As for becoming a trapped city.
Moreover, with the existence of the cornucopia, the stone marrow land will increase by one hundred square meters every day. The stone marrow land must be within the territory no matter what, and this cannot be changed.
Reclaiming the land is also a big project, but in the future the farm will increase its manpower, which will be enough to reclaim the land.
After Xue Siyu left, Ning Ze began to think about internal transactions within the territory.
Now, the rice in his hand probably weighs nearly 8,000 kilograms, and the fish meat also weighs more than 4,000 kilograms. It can be said that so much food is already a very huge amount of food supplies. It can be said that it has solved the problem of food in the territory. Crisis.
If the food needs in the territory are to be supplied for a long time, this amount of food will definitely not be enough, but the good thing is that the harvest of this food is very fast, and one harvest can be done in an average of several days.
Calculated according to this trend, this amount of food is completely enough to supply the needs of more than 200 people in the territory, and it is almost enough to even supply 500 people with food for a week.
"However, the food demand for only 500 people is still too small. I originally thought that this much food should be enough to supply one or two thousand people, but in actual calculation, the difference is still quite large. However, the scale of subsequent planting and breeding will gradually increase. Expansion, there should be no worries about food in the short term.”
Ning Ze couldn't help but rub his temples and relax his brain.
The food in his hand is roughly divided into two types, one is edible food and the other is inedible food.
Although it is not edible, eating it will only reduce some sanity points, so it is no problem to use it to feed the people.
But edible food also needs to be circulated, otherwise it will not play any role if it remains in his hands.
"Nowadays, the food in the territory is relatively simple. Almost everyone eats meat for a long time, and there are very few vegetarians. This way of eating is actually not healthy. It is okay to eat it for a short time, but sooner or later, if you eat like this for a long time, your body will have problems. question."
"But fortunately, a wave of rice has been harvested now. Although it is not strictly a vegetable, it is a staple food, and if rapeseed flowers are planted later, a lot of vegetables can be produced."
Regarding transactions within the territory, it can be regarded as a relatively important matter within the territory. This means the upgrading of the social system. Even if providing a certain degree of freedom to everyone will damage some of the rights and interests of the lord, a territory wants to be good. This step is destined to be indispensable for its operation.
"Now some people in the territory can be said to have food freedom, especially the group of first-circle territory residents. Just by having the title, they can receive enough food supplies every day, and these people are still serving in various houses, isn't it? The dean holds a certain position in a department with good benefits and benefits like the Military Academy, so he must have enough food for a month."
The deans of each hospital receive a monthly salary of one hundred kilograms of edible meat, while the soldiers receive a monthly salary of fifty kilograms of edible meat, and the team leader enjoys a monthly salary of seventy kilograms. The salary of edible meat is calculated separately for rotating soldiers. Ordinary employees of other hospitals also receive a monthly salary of thirty kilograms of edible meat.
This group of people can be said to be popular players in intra-territorial trading in the coming period, because this group of people has more food for trading.
"I'm afraid internal transactions cannot be accomplished overnight, so let's start with food transactions."
After Ning Ze pondered for a while, he murmured again: "Perhaps, one pound of edible meat can be exchanged for two pounds of edible rice, or five pounds of inedible meat, or ten pounds of inedible rice."
"There are still some rapeseed flowers, but they are not much. There are only more than 10,000 kilograms left. After eating this batch, they will be gone. It will have to wait for a while. As the only vegetable at present, the price should be If it’s higher, you can probably order a pound of edible meat in exchange for a pound of rapeseed flowers.”
"As for condiments and other items, I won't set prices. This can be left to them to set their own prices."
This is just preliminary pricing. Regarding pricing, Ningze's current idea is to give a rough price first, which is a relatively reasonable price. As for subsequent price adjustments, the residents need to make adjustments according to market changes. .
Of course, almost all of the food is still in his hands, so he plans to open the grain depot to the subjects first. This can be regarded as the subjects trading with him first, and then it will gradually transform into a relationship between the subjects. transactions between.
Internal transactions within the territory are still very important. This not only allows the food in his hands to be circulated reasonably, but also improves the quality of life of the people in the territory. It can also stimulate the people at the bottom and increase their fighting spirit. It can be said that Kill three birds with one stone.
"But now these territorial residents can be considered poor. Even the deans of each academy don't have much extra food in their hands. Therefore, if you want to start intra-territory transactions, you need to give these territorial residents a distribution first. Poveri.”
After all, this time harvesting grain and catching grass carp can be said to be a full-scale effort. No one chose to be lazy. For this reason, it is appropriate to provide some benefits to the residents.
As for the issue of benefits, he was not too stingy and decided to send some benefits according to the titles of the subjects.
Among them, residents of the third ring can enjoy two kilograms of edible meat, residents of the second ring can enjoy five kilograms of edible meat, and residents of the first ring can enjoy ten kilograms of edible meat. You can choose the meat of your choice, whether it is animal meat or fish. It's all the same amount.
The rice has not been sent to others, and those who want to eat can go to the grain depot to exchange it on their own.
After thinking about this, Ning Ze called Xue Siyu to announce the news. Under Xue Siyu's operation, the news quickly spread throughout the territory, causing everyone to discuss it wildly.
"Hey, everyone will be giving out free edible food. Is this true?"
"This is great. I am a citizen of the second ring, so I can directly receive five kilograms of edible meat."
"Hehe, I got five days' salary of food for free."
"What I am most concerned about is the opening of the grain depot. It is said that all food will be open, including some condiments."
"The opening of the grain depot this time can be said to have huge benefits. Even the residents of the third ring can exchange edible meat from the grain depot, but they can only exchange five kilograms per month. Fish and meat are not open. Citizens of the second ring If you can exchange it for ten kilograms per month, there will be no limit on the people you can claim in the first ring."
"I want to eat rapeseed flowers, but this time it seems that the rapeseed flowers are not open to the residents of the third ring. Even the inedible rapeseed flowers are not open to the residents of the third ring."
"Rape flowers are a good thing. I haven't eaten them for several days. I have to exchange some from the grain depot this time. I'm so greedy."
"."
There are also some restrictions on the opening of grain depots, but these restrictions are not deliberately targeted at the third and second ring territory residents. Considering that some second and third ring territory citizens do not have much food themselves, if there are no restrictions, I am afraid that many people over-consume and their diet becomes inadequate.
