Chapter 184 Unlock Four Passive Decisions at Once! Mass Production!

"As long as everyone knows this chapter, please don't discuss it in the comment area!"

Even though he was mentally prepared, Brigadier Wang was still startled by the Yellow River. He never expected that this person would make such a big deal when he first came up, and he would immediately take off.

However, as the person who knows agriculture best in the border area, he naturally supports such a good thing with both hands.

"Okay, this matter will be taken care of by our 359th Brigade. As long as there are enough seeds and cubs, I will return you Jiangnan in one year."

"One more thing. We are about the same age. Don't always call me brigade commander. This title is too unfamiliar. Either you just call me Wang Huzi like everyone else, or you can just call me Lao Wang. "

"Old Wang!"

"Hahaha! Good! So refreshing!"

Everyone had a great time chatting and became familiar with each other over the course of a meal.

After the meal, Brigadier Wang took Wang and Huang to visit the land reclaimed by their brigade. As if he had thought of something, Huang He's expression became very serious, and he asked tentatively:

"Old Wang, how is the ban on lollipops in our border area?"

This sudden question confused everyone else present, and for a moment no one answered it.

The reason why Huang He asked this was very simple. He simply cared about the people's livelihood.

The war caused by lollipops is the starting point of modern Chinese history. It has harmed hundreds of millions of people and is a scar that cannot be bypassed no matter what.

According to statistics from Guofu, the total population of the Republic of China was 474 million in 1932. There are 80 million people in the country who are entangled by that thing, accounting for 16.8% of the total population.

Taking into account the weak grassroots control and statistical capabilities of Guoju at that time, the real number will only be larger.

Before October 1936, Shaanxi was one of the areas most severely damaged by that stuff. It had a history of growing and selling it for nearly a hundred years.

After being stunned for a few seconds, Brigadier Wang showed a reassuring smile. He patted Huang He on the shoulder and said:

"Don't worry, our experience in this area is definitely the best in the country. When we first arrived in Shaanxi four years ago, the army launched a massive campaign to ban lollipops and brought the situation under control within a few months. "

"Young man, don't forget one thing. Our border area has been blocked by my nephew. That thing is very valuable, but if you can't sell it, who will grow it?"

"Besides, ordinary people are not stupid. Who doesn't know that life is the most important thing? At the beginning of this year, there were signs of famine in the province. The villagers are taking advantage of the time to cultivate wasteland and grow food, and no one touches that crap anymore."

After receiving the affirmative answer, Huang He showed an expression of relief.

Lollipops are small in size and light in weight, and the terminal selling price is quite high.

In the Republic of China, where the financial system was chaotic, that thing could be ranked alongside gold, silver, pounds and US dollars as the main circulating hard currency, and was collectively known as "yellow, white, black, and green."

Taking into account the quantity scale and difficulty of inspection, lollipops can even surpass the most precious gold, silver and foreign currencies, becoming the most cost-effective and circulating currency before the Anti-Japanese War.

As a person who traveled back in time, he knew how chaotic the Chou Country was because of this thing.

Just ban it, that’s a good thing! It is a great thing that benefits the country and the people! I have to give a thumbs up to the senior management! So fast!

Brigadier Wang obviously saw Huang He's lingering fears. In order to reassure the new comrade, he continued to add:

"When we first came here, we forcibly destroyed a batch of lollipops from the production areas. As compensation, we left food rations and seeds for the people to help them switch to growing food."

"The army will register all those with criminal records and give them abstinence within a time limit."

"Comrades will also organize production education to involve people who are not involved in production and have degenerate behaviors into the tide of industrial and agricultural production, so that they know that they are members of society and stimulate their determination."

"Although some people did not make it through, the vast majority were transformed through productive labor and became positive people."

The moment Brigadier Wang finished explaining, the system in Huang He's mind began to vibrate violently. This level was unprecedented, and I felt a little dizzy for a moment.

"Old Wang! I have to go to the toilet! This Hunan cuisine is delicious, but it is too spicy. My northern stomach can't handle it for a while."

"Okay, it just so happens that we can go back and continue talking about business."

"Who is not the owner of the bathroom? It's just that the conditions are a bit crude."

After jogging all the way to the toilet, Huang He immediately turned on his system.

"Ding ding ding ding! There are new updates in the system, please check back in time!"

Ignoring the urging voice, he quickly concentrated. At this time, four new bonuses actually appeared on the interface at the same time. This spectacular picture made him confused for a moment.

"Our land: For centuries, tenant farmers who worked the land had to pay taxes to the landowners. From now on, we are going to change that.

A grain of grain can save a country, or it can stumble a country. You may not know that famine during a certain period of time can really cause people to starve to death.

Everyone doesn’t have enough to eat, I’ve seen it all with my own eyes.

But from now on! Such a scene cannot happen again!

Effect: Civilian factories in the system can be exchanged for agricultural items that were ahead of their time! "

"Implement the three principles: follow the command in all actions, do not take advantage of the masses, and return all seizures to the public. As long as our comrades implement these simple and easy-to-understand disciplines, the people will naturally understand that we are on their side.

Effect: Production rate of civilian factories in the system: +4%"

"Ban lollipop trade: Lollipops have always been a tool to poison the people, and we must never allow them to continue to harm the masses.

Effect: Agricultural product production efficiency of civilian factories in the system: +5%"

"Abolish rent: The hard-working peasants are the real owners of the land. By mobilizing the peasants to get the land, we will be able to ensure their support.

Effect: Total value of civilian factory trade: +36%"

After seeing the new bonus, Huang He doubted his life. He even thought that he should have gone straight to the border area. It's too powerful to unlock four passive decisions in a row!

But this is a matter of the past. If you don't go to the southeastern Shanxi base, the production line and weapons given by the decision can't be sent there. After all, transportation is not well developed now, and there are obstacles in the middle.

Coming out of the bathroom, our Huang is more confident about mass production. After washing his hands, he immediately returned to the meeting room of the 359th Brigade.

"Old Wang, how many people in your brigade can participate in the construction work now?"

Although he couldn't keep up with Huang He's jumping thoughts, Brigade Commander Wang still subconsciously answered after hearing the question:

"Seven thousand or eight thousand, if the common people are included, this number can almost double. You know, our border area has a good mass base, and everyone will not refuse to reclaim wasteland together."

"Okay! If I tell you that I can give the 359th Brigade 2,600 kilograms of rice seeds per mu, 5,000 kilograms of carrot seeds per mu, and 6,000 kilograms of cabbage seeds per mu."

"And I can also provide sufficient fertilizers, how much food can you grow!"

As soon as the voice fell, the entire conference room suddenly became silent.

After a while, everyone was panting with red eyes. Brigade Commander Wang widened his eyes, and his big beard fluttered without wind. He looked at Huang He with incredible and unbelievable eyes.

"Two thousand six hundred kilograms per mu, Old Huang, you are not kidding!"

Most of the people present were born in poverty, and they worked on the farm with their families before joining the army. After arriving in the border area, they cultivated and opened up many fields.

They knew the yield of crops very well. Take SD Province as an example. Even experienced farmers, who carefully take care of the land and actively apply fertilizers, can only produce about 150 kilograms per mu of wheat and barley.

Even the most powerful pumpkin can only produce 1,400 kilograms per mu.

This number is still the history before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War. The areas occupied by the devils are often barren and the yield is reduced. The above data should be at least halved.

Now, the production capacity has increased by dozens of times. Not only staple food but also vegetables, how can this not make everyone in the conference room suspicious.

Rice is accustomed to everyone, and it can also be made into rice noodles, rice noodles, rice cakes and fermented rice, which perfectly takes care of the comrades in the south and north of the army.

This thing can also be stored in the war reserve warehouse for emergency use.

The winter in the border area will be affected by dry cold air, with little precipitation and very cold, which is very suitable for growing cold-resistant and high-yield cabbage.

Before Huang He came back, the life of the army was a bit tight.

Many times, the soldiers could only eat boiled cabbage, and they might not even have salt. If there were a few canned meats seized from the devils, that would be the most desirable meal for everyone.

Before the main person could answer, Brigade Commander Wang asked again: "You didn't add an extra zero, right? Even 260 kilograms per mu is very high!"

Huang He felt a little timid when asked this question.

In the later life, he was a serious scholar who had never farmed. It can even be said that he lacked common sense in this regard, and at most he knew how much a bag of rice cost.

However, he was very sensitive to numbers, after all, one of his majors was applied mathematics.

In memory, there were only 2,450 mu of agricultural arable land in Lanniwan in 1940. After the 359th Brigade went there to open up wasteland for a year, the area increased fivefold to 12,000 mu.

By 1944, the number reached an astonishing 26,000 mu.

The average yield of rice per mu is 2,600 jin. Even if we calculate it based on 12,000 mu in 1941, there will be 31.2 million jin when it is harvested.

Huang He clearly remembers that Guoju collected a total of 15.6 to 18.2 million tons of grain during the entire Anti-Japanese War. Let's ignore the corruption in the middle.

That means that if the Eighth Route Army has grain-producing areas in two provinces, it can completely collect military rations for the entire Anti-Japanese War within one year.

After calculating this account, Huang He himself was shocked. After silently reciting "Yuan Lao Qiangu" in his heart, he explained to everyone in the conference room:

"You heard it right! This number is true! I dare to use my head as a guarantee. If the deviation exceeds 10%, I will twist my head off and use it as a chamber pot for you!"

"I talked to the bosses this morning, and the two decided to establish a production and construction corps based on the 359th Brigade. While guarding the border area, we will start the construction of the base area!"

"The first target is Lanniwan! It will be our big granary!"

Then it was time to discuss the specific arrangements. Huang He began to tell everyone about the arrangements for the next year in the conference room.

When Lanniwan was mentioned, the first reaction of most local residents was the stinking water and black mud of Huangshan Mountain, with mountains in a radius of 100 miles, and only the tops of the trees could be seen but not the sky. Wolves, leopards and yellow sheep were running all over the mountains, and it was a desolate and sparsely populated area.

But a careful analysis reveals that the terrain here is mainly hilly, and the terrain is relatively flat and very suitable for farming. There are also many rivers passing through, and the water resources are very abundant.

This seemingly wild grass, thorns, and sparsely populated broken land will become a fertile treasure land as long as it is properly cultivated.

During the period of Qing control, several large-scale battles took place near Lanniwan.

As long as the horse road for transporting grain at that time was expanded and repaired, the road to the border area in the north could be connected, and the transportation problem would naturally be solved.

Such a large piece of land, only 8,000 people of the 359th Brigade would definitely not be enough. After all, in addition to farming, they also have to raise pigs and chickens.

In order to have enough people, the army must be expanded. With new recruits, training must be taken into account, and the workload has doubled.

Under normal circumstances, it is difficult for ordinary generals to manage more than 10,000 people in an orderly manner.

But Brigade Commander Wang has his own management skills. In the early years, he led his comrades in the south to participate in various sports, and he could also play the role of a gold medal thug.

He can summarize a suitable management system based on the current situation of the troops.

Speaking of this, Huang He expressed his heartfelt emotion. It is good to have a big organization behind you. There are many talented people here, and basically all you need to do is provide plans and materials.

Speaking of talents, we have to mention several low-key masters in the border area.

Originally, he was going to make the decision to "establish an academy of sciences" and allocate the researcher quota provided in November to agronomy. But after the director knew Huang He's arrangement, he immediately told him some secrets.

In February of this year, Guanghua Farm was established in the border area.

There are many scientific research talents in agronomy in this farm. They have made remarkable achievements in projects such as crop cultivation, breeding and promotion of excellent varieties, and prevention and control of pests and diseases.

Comrades have developed new varieties of potatoes and silage corn based on the local climate and soil, which are treasures that can be harvested twice a year through crop rotation.

Before coming to the border area, Huang He always thought that the plan to reclaim the muddy bay to increase grain production was proposed by the commander-in-chief in 1941.

But he never expected that there was a forest investigation team in the border area.

They spent half a year on personal investigation and provided the bosses with a "Border Forest Investigation Report" in the middle of this year, which clearly explained the many reasons for reclaiming Lanniwan.

After the director mentioned this, Huanghe immediately remembered some important things.

A year later, in 1941, the Border Academy of Natural Sciences was established to set up a biology department, which was later reorganized into an agricultural department.

They cooperated with Guanghua Farm to study the local important pest millet ash borer, bred the borer-resistant variety "Langweigu" for promotion, and also tried to promote cotton planting and mulberry planting and silkworm breeding.

The most powerful one came. In 1943, the Chinese Society of Agricultural Sciences was established by the four great gods Le, Li, Chen, and Fang.

With these agronomists and animal husbandry and veterinary experts, why do we need to use the system to summon researchers?

The best soldiers are matched with the best experts. I have decided to plant the land, and no one can stop me.
