Brother, we are indeed smart people!

………………………………………

A few days later.

In the area of ​​Dengfeng City, thousands of figures in gray military uniforms were already renovating the soil in the field. However, when the people of Hou Jie and Song Hu were controlled, they had already sorted out thousands of acres of farmland.

There are fields such as upper, middle and lower.

It is now almost the time of the Lantern Festival, and it is already early March in the Gregorian calendar.

In China, many crops have different planting times. There is a considerable time difference between the south and north of the Yangtze River. In provinces such as Henan, Shaanxi, and Hebei, potatoes can already be planted. These provinces will plant them from February to March and harvest them from around June.

Wait until August or September that you can plant it again and harvest it again the next year.

The potato seeds brought by Mr. Zhao have been cultivated and optimized in the 21st century, and have high yields in detoxification and good drought resistance.

As for the number of seeds, the potato seeds in the Transformers plane can be acquired from all over the world at will...

Today, the soldiers who climbed the peak went to the ground to work in military uniforms. Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, the Quanyu Province will do this. As for the land, most of them were under Hou Jie and Song Hu. The other part was the land deeds controlled by the government.

Mr. Zhao had long thought about planting sweet potatoes, but the best time was April and May. He could not wait until April and May. Chunguzi was also in late April, and Xiagu had to wait until June to sow.

The millet is planted around May and June, and it is harvested in Mid-Autumn Festival.

First, we will fight back the middle and upper high-yield potatoes, fertilizers, and pesticides in these thousands of acres of land. When the large fleet of water conservancy construction comes, we will give priority to opening water canals nearby. During the process, we can continue to buy land and talk to those landlords who are interested in selling land.

Buy the land slowly, and the time is right. You can take over the planting of high-yield, drought-resistant sweet potatoes, millet and millet.

In addition to buying, you can also let the Gray Military Uniform Corps cooperate with various convoys to reclaim new fields. After all, some land that cannot grow wheat may not be able to grow potatoes.

All Henan Provinces and even the other four provinces can follow this routine to change.

…………

Time passes.

In April 1920, the great famine caused by drought had already revealed many signs. The wheat fields in most plain areas of Henan, Shaanxi and Hebei provinces either had extremely poor individual wheat development, had severe yellow roots, or had large areas of dying directly.

In the fields outside urban and rural areas, there are also large areas of dry and cracked land.

It’s okay to have only one city and one county like this, but Bai Xiongqi, Bai Xiuzhu and his group took a car and passed dozens of counties along the way. There were such famine scenes everywhere on both sides of the spacious official road leveled by various road rollers.

Many civilians have begun to migrate collectively and flee famine.

Bai Xiuzhu was shocked in the back seat of a car, "These scenes are really terrible. Even if it was not the first time I saw them... it has been like this all the way. Then how should people from these prefectures live this year?"

Bai Xiongqi took Lao Duan's order to come to Henan Province to meet Mr. Zhao and talk about something. Why is Lao Bai? Lao Bai's girl was kidnapped by Mr. Zhao.

This kidnapping friendship should not be bad, right?

The Zhi-An War originally took place in July. At the beginning of the war, the Anhui warlords were still arrogant and proud... and they ended up losing in five days.

At this point in time, if Mr. Zhao does not interfere or is not biased in helping him, Lao Duan is actually still sure of victory, but isn’t he afraid that Mr. Zhao will help Zhifeng and the Southern Alliance?

He alluded to all kinds of hints that as long as Bai Xiongqi could convince Mr. Zhao to help his opponents without being biased, the next second person would be you.

President Bai, this is here to sell girls.

Since President Zhao showed the rapid progress of the mechanized fleet outside the capital, he no longer wanted the girl to marry Jin Yanxi. Before the kidnapping case, President Bai also noticed the signs of the Zhi-An War and was no longer keen on marriage.

He also advised Bai Xiuzhu not to rush to make decisions or something.

After he discovered such an excellent character as Mr. Zhao, he felt even more in a mood.

This is the first time Miss Bai has left... from the perspective of the upper class, she witnessed the horror scene of the great famine with her own eyes, and was shocked.

Under her words, General Bai also wondered, "Those who bought grain in the capital and in the south have been transported to the five northern provinces. They also planted high-quality potato seeds from abroad in early March to build water conservancy."

"Did you have expected this famine?"

Bai Xiuzhu said in shock, "Can this famine be predicted in advance? Is he a charlatan?":.

Bai Xiongqi was speechless.

After a moment of silence, he explained, "It's not that magical. This drought showed signs of autumn harvest last year, but the situation was fine last year, and the impact was relatively small and easy to control. If there were a few heavy snow in winter... auspicious snow indicates a good harvest."

"But you also know that more snowfalls in the five provinces and counties have been much less than in previous years. Since the Spring Festival, it has been raining and snowing, and you can just collect the records and you will know."

"It is not necessary to be as exaggerated as a charlatan. Experienced old farmers can infer the general situation of summer harvest based on weather changes."

Bai Xiuzhu then said relieved, "That boss should be able to receive information about this, right? Have you taken measures to deal with it?"

Bai Xiongqi, “…”

He didn't want to talk. Could it be that we just knew that there were many agricultural officials urging them, but no matter Lao Duan or the official boss of Anfu, they didn't care much about such trivial matters.

The most important thing at the moment is how to fight with other groups? Winning is the finishing work we need to consider. If we lose, that is nothing to do with me.

The convoy continued to drive, and several people in the car lit up their eyes. Looking towards the end of their vision ahead, Bai Xiuzhu was excited and said, "It's so green. Have you met that Brother Jiuzhao's potato field again?"

Compared with the scene where large tracts of land are withered and dilapidated, the most happy thing that passes through dozens of counties is that after walking for a while, you may encounter continuous acres of potato fields, although it is still early to harvest.

But green potato seedlings are connected into one piece, ranging from dozens of acres or even hundreds of acres.

This green feels like this in the famine, it’s really different!

Bai Xiongqi smiled bitterly again. He encountered green potato fields not once or twice. Many times, they also found that there were already built canals, which flowed through the field area with rivers, and there were also small drainage canals that drew water into the field, connecting the earth.

This will create a large green field.

After all, with the scale of Mr. Zhao's steel fleet, it is unrealistic to build the Three Gorges Dam, Xiaolangdi Reservoir, Hongqi Canal, etc. in this era. Even the world's most advanced fleet operation cannot be achieved in a short time.

But such a huge convoy, digging water canals on the plains and guiding some ordinary water systems to irrigate various counties, would be impossible to save all dry fields. One government can save tens of thousands of acres.
