The Princess of Northern Land

Chapter 606: Not giving up (1)

Ever since Chu Suifeng told Lin Ziyin, his heart felt like a fire was burning, and he wished he could take the person back to get married immediately.

But the war in the border town had just ended. As the prince of the North, he couldn't just leave.

After the spies sent back the information, they confirmed that Bayar's army had really left the North and advanced northward. Chu Suifeng and Situ Gong reviewed the defenses in the border city again, and at the same time determined that a large piece of wasteland in the south of the city would be allocated to the military camp, and the nearby hills would be used as pasture for the camp, where they would be used to raise chickens, ducks, and cattle and sheep. At the base, soldiers were also responsible for digging rivers to divert water, and preparing fish and shrimp farming in the ditches at the edge of the field.

The soldiers at the border had already tasted the benefits brought by aquatic products and livestock and poultry. Seeing that they had won the battle and driven the arrogant Tatars out of the North, they were all very happy after receiving the mission. After receiving the task, I actively devoted myself to work.

Many people also came to help, because whether it was planting or breeding, the base was actually a model for them. After finishing their work here, they can start to open up wasteland according to the model of the base.

The border town is in chaos and lacks supplies. As a member of the border town, all the people live a very difficult life and feel somewhat unsettled. But as members of the Northland, they are also proud of their abundant land.

There is not a lot of land, it should be said that there is a lot of land. As long as we can grow rice and corn, no one will be afraid of going hungry in the future. Especially since the prince is considerate of everyone, the taxes in the first five years were pitifully low.

With such a good master, what else do they have to fear?

"The princess is still smart." Looking at everyone working enthusiastically, Situ Gong sighed. To be honest, in winter in the North, the ground was as frozen as hard pimples, but the soldiers and everyone started to work with manpower.

Maybe not much wasteland will be opened this year, but it will be different next year. As long as the weather gets warmer, everyone can plant beans and corn while clearing land. When the land is mature, rice can be planted the next year and the yield will be higher.

"In less than three years, the border town will no longer be short of food." Situ Gong felt proud.

Luo Heng and Xiao Yang were so happy that they couldn't close their mouths all day long. Over the years, as officials in the border town, they had received a lot of jealousy from the imperial court. From now on, if the border towns can produce and sell their own goods, who cares about the imperial court?

"The greenhouse should be built first, and the seedlings must be raised immediately when spring begins." Situ Gong repeatedly warned that the first step in planting rice is to raise seedlings, and the establishment of the greenhouse must not be careless at all.

"Prince and Mr. Situ, don't worry. The official will be watching personally. Nothing will go wrong in the greenhouse." Xiao Yang promised.

"In the future, workshops for woolen threads, woolen coats and woolen blankets can be established in the name of the government. Workers who enter the workshops will be paid according to the more work, more reward. We will also open a roast duck restaurant and Chaotian Hotpot here as local characteristics. , to attract more businessmen here." Lin Ziyin gave suggestions based on what he saw.

"It's up to you." Chu Suifeng was completely willing to adopt Lin Ziyin's advice when it came to doing business.

"Master Xiao, regarding the acquisition price, please be sure to use the most practical people to take charge of the management. It is best to change the manpower every five years." Lin Ziyin warned. Whether it is a wool factory or a hot pot restaurant, it will be a business that makes money quickly in the future.

She is worried that someone will line their own pockets, and the transfer of personnel positions can largely eliminate this problem. "We can also encourage people to start small businesses on their own, such as making specialty snacks. I think as long as taxes are reasonable, people will definitely be willing to come forward. For example, we can first provide money to build unified sheds on both sides of the street, so that They have a place to put their stuff, and that takes their worries away.”
