At the end of May, the entire Xinghua County was immersed in great joy. It was a bumper harvest year. The fertilizer produced by the fertilizer factory in Xinghua County had indeed produced excellent results. From the south to the north, the crops in every wheat field were extremely crazy. The golden wheat that grew happily was something that many old people had never seen in their lives!!!
It wasn't just 20%, 30%. The yield of wheat per mu had almost doubled…Originally, the field could only harvest 300 catties of wheat, but this year, it could probably harvest 600 catties of wheat. What could such a drastic change bring to Xinghua County?!!
With the rapid decrease in the agricultural population, a family that originally required three people to farm might now only need two or even one person…
With the explosive growth of grain production, the farmers had surplus grain in their homes. Lin Zefan could slightly reduce the subsidies from the Ministry of Agriculture to continue to increase investment in industrial development!!
The consumption power of the farmers would increase rapidly, which would also boost the consumption market of the entire Xinghua County…
In Lin Family Village, Old Man Li, who sold tofu in the village, looked at the rows of golden wheat outside. He had mixed feelings and disbelief. That thing called fertilizer was actually useful…
Old Man Li had lived for 50 to 60 years now, but he had never seen crops grow like this. If he harvested them, he would not have to worry about not having enough white flour to eat for the entire year…
Not only would the landlord's family be able to hand over all their food, but they would also have a pile of food left…With this operation, would this group of poor and moldy bumpkins really be able to make a comeback!!
The more Old Man Li thought about it, the angrier he got. He had stopped farming because he was selling tofu. Now that he looked at it, he was filled with regret…
The golden wheat waves seemed to come straight from the distant horizon. This visual shock really penetrated one's soul!!!
Currently, the head of the Ministry of Agriculture, Yuan Keping, was standing at the entrance of Lin Family Village. As the first experimental subject, Lin Family Village had truly risen. It looked like the number one village in the world. The neat and wide roads, the rumbling of machinery, and the number one military factory were the core existences of the entire Xinghua!
In this era where guns were king, Lin Zefan was the one who took control of the military factory…The chief designer of the military factory, Edward, was kidnapped by Lin Zefan and brought to his chariot. This foreigner only wanted to eat all the delicacies in China…
"Leader, it is estimated that this year's wheat in Lin Family Village will be able to harvest more than 10,000 catties of grain. Among them, the grain that is handed over to the landowners will still be distributed according to the usual tax. Four out of ten will be taken. However, this year, our Lin Family has changed the rules and one out of ten will be taken. Therefore, the landowners in Yongfeng Town have changed the tax distribution and reduced the commission. 10%, 20%, 30%. However, these reputable landowners are basically setting up industrial workshops, matchsticks, and cloth factories now. Flour factories…These factories were much more profitable than food!!”
Yuan Keping knew very well that the Lin family was currently the overlord of Xinghua County. Even the Lin family had taken the initiative to lower their taxes. The other families naturally followed suit. Anyway, the grain production had increased, and the grain collected was not necessarily less either. Moreover, these days, the Lin family business group had opened up some design technology, which could be said to have given them a way to make money. Lin Zefan's request was to always maintain a front with the Lin family!!!
"It seems that setting up an alliance business alliance is still useful. These people are smart. They know that they can earn money by following me, so they follow the Lin family as an example!!”
Lin Zefan smiled. Of course, this was a good thing. While Lin Zefan sold the technology to them, he earned a lot of money. On the other hand, it allowed the industry in Xinghua County to develop faster…Why not? It was just some light industrial products, so they couldn't cause a huge commotion. The most important energy industry, heavy industry, and military industry were all controlled by the Lin Business Group, which was equivalent to the government's control…
"Keping, after the wheat harvest is over, immediately organize the workers of the Agriculture Department to plant rice in the whole county. We have more rice in Jiangbei. Cultivate more young comrades. If they can produce 1,500 catties of rice per mu, I will give bonuses to all the comrades in the Ministry of Agriculture!!”
When Yuan Keping heard the figure of 1,500 catties per mu, he was terrified. Although the yield of rice was more than that of wheat, it was only 400 to 500 catties. Even if it was doubled, it would not be more than 1,000 catties. 1,500 catties per mu was impossible!!
However, the regiment commander had said that there might be a way to increase the grain production by another 50%. This might not be the case, just like the wheat now. Who would have thought that the fertilizer produced by the fertilizer plant could have such magic? Perhaps now, the news of 800 catties of wheat per mu had spread throughout the counties around Xinghua. Who would believe it?!!
"Just wait and see, Keping. The news of the bumper harvest has spread. Our county is going to be envied. Perhaps some blind thing will come and snatch the grain!”
The calm Lin Zefan was not panicking at all. The expansion of the militia had given him enough confidence to face the so-called giant bandits, tough bandits, and even the 13th division of the Beiyang Army in Guangling…So what if it was an infantry division? My militia was even equipped with heavy machine guns now. What was there to be afraid of!!!
Yuan Keping naturally knew that a man who was innocent would be punished for his wealth. There were too many people who were jealous. How could Xinghua's development not be discovered? The surrounding counties had probably already investigated the changes in Xinghua. But so what? Guangling had not said anything, and Jinling was not abnormal. Xinghua was unscrupulous. Even if they broke the sky, it would not hurt!!!
In any case, in the next few months, it was time for the military factory's inventory to go to war to digest it. If anyone had the guts, Lin Zefan wouldn't mind revealing the tiger's fangs!!!
