The next day, Zhang Han had just gotten up when someone sent him the information. After reading it, Zhang Han felt relieved. It seemed that his luck was not bad. Li Guangxing's reputation in Yingkou was really good, especially the taxes in Yingkou, which could be said to be the lowest in Fengtian Province.
"Battalion Commander, I took a closer look just now. Although this Li Guangxing is the county head of Yingkou County, he doesn't have many servants in his residence.
During breakfast, Zhang Han also became familiar with Li Guangxing. At least, Zhang Han could confirm that there were no traces of Fusang people in Yingkou City. Moreover, when Li Guangxing was young, he was also a hot-blooded youth. Unfortunately, with the current situation in the Dragon Country, to put it bluntly, the former hot-blooded youth did not see any hope.
No wonder Li Guangxing returned to Yingkou.
................................................................................................................
"To be honest, Battalion Commander Zhang, there are only four people in the county government including me. We are responsible for the affairs of the villages in Yingkou County.”
"I really hope that Fengtian will take over this county. If no one helps, I'm afraid that the crops won't be able to grow this year.”
It was time to sow the seeds again. However, due to the natural and man-made disasters, the crops that were originally used as crops were eaten up.
Therefore, this year's grain sowing in Yingkou might be a big problem.
"Battalion Commander Zhang, I sincerely hope that you can help. Yingkou is poor, and last year, many refugees from outside the pass fled to our place. As the county head, I really can't bear to see those old people and children starve to death.。”
"I've never seen any relief food before, but every year, we hand over more than 10% of the food. Battalion Commander Zhang, there are more than 100,000 people in Yingkou County now, and more than 95% of them don't have enough to eat every day.。”
Li Guangxing was also kneeling on the ground, sobbing. He had no choice. Yingkou was a little poor, but compared to the refugees from the pass, at least they had a home. However, those people had to worry about being pulled away to become soldiers at any time. On the other hand, their fields were also affected by the flood and locust disaster. They had no crops and had to escape outside the pass. Along the way, countless people died.
Zhang Han stared blankly at the two small sweet potatoes in his bowl and couldn't help but put down his chopsticks. During the Republic of China, many people in the future wanted to return to this melodramatic Republic of China era. In fact, when they really arrived, it was so unbearable.
In this era, the average age of the entire Dragon Country was only 35 years old!
In this era, the drought and famine from 1920 to 1921 alone caused 10 million deaths and 30 million disasters in the northern region.。
In this era, the average number of people who died from famine every year was close to five million!!
The period of the Republic of China, which was luxurious and prosperous, and loved by scholars, was only an era of a few people.。
Countless people in the north fled to the northeast to escape the famine!!
Many people probably wouldn't even be able to eat a sweet potato.。
Zhang Han originally only wanted to protect the Zhang family and the northeast, but now he suddenly understood what he wanted to do. He wanted to let the 400 million people of the entire Dragon Country have enough to eat and clothes to wear.
"County Head Li, if you believe me, from today onwards, Yingkou County will be arranged according to my plan. I guarantee that next year, every household with a population of more than 100,000 will have surplus grain!!”
Perhaps it was because Zhang Hanze came from Fengtian City, but Li Guangxing actually believed this fifteen or sixteen-year-old child. He wore a military uniform that did not fit him well and had short, sharp hair. It made Zhang Hanze look iron-blooded and strong.
A few days later, Zhang Hanze and the patrol battalion finally settled down in Yingkou. Zhang Hanze's military camp was also placed in the Earth Temple in the south of the city. It was already afternoon, and the young Zhang Hanze was explaining the military discipline of the patrol battalion to his brothers, as well as the daily training arrangements of the patrol battalion.
"I wake up at 5:30 every morning. The first task is to run five kilometers with weights!!”
"Set the standard time in units of companies. Those who pass will not have their breakfast deducted!!”
"In the morning, it's the infantry training, including marching and setting up formations, digging trenches, and shooting with live ammunition!!”
"There will be a theoretical knowledge class in the afternoon, and I will personally attend the class!!”
"In the evening, there will be a two-hour class to eliminate illiterate people. Within half a year, I hope that each of you can recognize the commonly used 500 words!!”
Zhang Hanze's voice was loud and clear. These few days, he had been leading by example. Whether it was sleeping, running, or shooting, he had done it personally. What impressed the soldiers the most was Zhang Hanze's knowledge. It seemed that there was nothing he did not know. Even shooting was at the level of a sharpshooter.
Many people started to recognize this young Zhang Hanze. Indeed, in the entire Scouting Camp, only Zhang Hanze was qualified to be a Battalion Commander. The others were obviously not qualified.
Outside the circle, some of the children nearby were also hiding at the side. They stared curiously at Zhang Hanze as if they were extremely curious about him. However, no one dared to approach him. These people had guns.
Moreover, Zhang Han would sometimes give them some sweet potatoes, so they quite liked this battalion commander in front of them.
"Battalion Commander Zhang, take a look. I finally mobilized the villagers to find the white ore you mentioned. In the mountain range in the west of the city, a villager found it.”
"And the plant ash you want, I just don't know what you want these things for.”
Of course, Li Guangxing didn't know that the white ore was phosphorous ore, and the plant ash contained a large amount of potassium and other metal elements. Zhang Han wanted to use these inconspicuous things to make fertilizer for Yingkou.
Zhang Han smiled but didn't say it out loud. Yingkou actually had iron ore, and there was a lot of it. The Dream Machine even told him that there was oil underground in Yingkou.
However, the conditions for mining were more difficult.
However, the white ores in the mines in the west of Yingkou were very shallow and could definitely be mined easily.
"Uncle Li, help me find a smarter person to bring this list to Fengtian City's Yu Chamber of Commerce to buy these things!”
Li Guangxing took a look at the list and saw that there were diesel generators, shredders, looms, and even crop seeds, as well as a large number of sweet potatoes...
Zhang Han also understood that the industry had developed step by step. Now, Yingkou had everything it wanted, and his father did not have extra funds to help him, so he had to do everything in Yingkou.
The nightlife in Yingkou County was not very lively. In this small city, there was not even a decent restaurant. Indeed, no one would eat in a restaurant even if it was opened. Moreover, in this year, if a restaurant was really opened, it would have been sold out during the famine last year.
During the famine last year, all those who had some money in Yingkou had run away. Those who stayed were mostly poor farmers and refugees who had escaped from the pass.
However, Zhang Han was already choosing the future Yingkou Industrial Zone, including various light industrial factories. Fortunately, the various design drawings given by the Dream Machine did not have any technical constraints.
