"This is all done by your seniors, bricks, tiles and hoes!" Wang Qi laughed and said, "But there is nothing to envy. The conditions for the places you are going to are much better than this broken island. As long as you work hard, you will definitely build a better home!"

The simple and simple prospective immigrants were excited and for the first time in their hearts, they had a picture of the new life repeatedly depicting the immigration officers.

But I didn’t think about how close it is to Jiangnan.

Actually, this is Jiangnan...

No matter what, at least they are very energetic now.

After taking the accurate immigrants back to Wang Qing'ao, Wang Qi held a brief welcome party at the yard at the foot of the mountain to thresh and dry grain.

The main purpose is to introduce the training cadres of the brigade, and to talk about what the training brigade does, as well as the main tasks and precautions for the next three months.

The 58 Training Brigade has three training squadrons, with a total of ten training cadres. In addition to the captain of Wang Qi, there are two brigade deputys, and the leaders of these three teams each lead a squadron.

In addition, there is an accountant, a cashier and administrator, three agricultural technicians, a physical education instructor, and a health officer. These seven also serve as cultural instructors.

What surprised the immigrants the most was that the accountant Xiao Liu and the sanitation officer Yunping were still two girls.

"How can this woman show up in public?" Li Shouzhong whispered: "I'm still so inappropriate in dressing..."

It was already very hot during the day in Jiangnan. The two girls were wearing thin silk waist-hugging jackets with narrow sleeves, and two short-sleeved silk shirts tied with knots on the outer closure. The pleated skirt on the lower body was also silk, and the skirt was less than the ankle, revealing the two white socks on the embroidered shoes...

It's so rude... Oh no, it's so frivolous and shocking!

Li Shouzhong did not respond to their feet, because Mizhi's wife did not bind her feet.

"I think it's so pretty..." Gundam grinned as he touched his hair that was about inch long.

At this time, Wang Qi on the stage also explained why there were female cadres in the group.

Because in the south, women are the main labor force in their families. Moreover, women have natural advantages in raising silkworms, spinning and weaving, so the proportion of female workers has been very high since the beginning of the group.

Later, Mr. Li Zhuowu also opened a girls' school. After graduation, the girl became a cadre like a group, and her performance was no worse than that of a man.

"You may not know yet that there are several women at the top of our group. Middle-level female cadres are not young." Wang Qi said to the immigrants below the audience in a deep voice: "So, we have to take over the original old concept. From now on, the first thing is to not beat my wife!"

There was a burst of laughter from the audience.

"Secondly, women also have to go to literacy classes. Third, women will also be assigned labor tasks in the future. The specific work of women will be responsible for two female cadres." Wang Qi made an explanation with the new immigrants for half his life, knowing that they had a very poor acceptance ability at the beginning, and it was useless to say more. After a brief introduction, it was over.

After the meeting, he and two brigade deputys settled down with their respective squadrons.

There are three villages in Wangqingao, one on the mountainside, one in the mountain, and one at the foot of the mountain, just a squadron and a village.

Basically, each household immigrated to a small courtyard, and the food, rice, oil and salt were ready-made, so you could start your own house on the same day.

However, because the first half of the year was the peak period for immigration and housing was a bit tight, the two bachelors like Li Shouzhong and his brothers did not have separate courtyards, but moved into the single dormitory of the brigade headquarters.

There are eight people in the dormitory, ventilated in the sun and concrete floor. Although it is up and down, it is much better than the large-scale paving along the way.

Especially for people like Li Shouzhong and Gundam who have never slept in bed and have never slept in a single bed since birth, happiness is about to bubble.

Moreover, living in a collective dormitory can eat in the cafeteria without having to open fire by yourself, it is simply a blessing for bachelors.

Of course, there are also bad things, such as relatively more rules. You must fold the quilts and sweep the floor every day to maintain tidy indoors; brush your teeth and wash your face, and maintain personal hygiene... In short, under the noses of training cadres every day, you have no chance to be lazy.

Fortunately, since they entered the Immigration Office in the first lunar month, they have been strictly required to maintain personal and public health, and their discipline has been greatly improved, so there is nothing to be uncomfortable with.

After settling down, the squadrons first carried out a day of disciplinary publicity, and this area of ​​prospective immigrants is no stranger to this area. It is just that there is an extra requirement for working and living. The prospective immigrants are used to the group's style of discipline and following rules in everything, so there is no need to repeat it.

The training cadres divided each squadron into ten squads, with each ten households being one team. From them, they designated a team leader, responsible for assisting the team cadres in assigning tasks, organizing learning, and collecting materials.

Although the team leader has no salary and no staffing, it is not in vain. Their performance will be written into the training file. After being allocated to the administrative district, those with excellent performance will naturally get more opportunities.

In the rest of the day, the team leader took people to the brigade warehouse to collect necessary production and living materials such as clothing, farm tools, labor protection supplies, etc., and then distributed them to each household. Each household was also allowed to settle down and adapt to the local environment.

Starting from the third day of going to the island, the extremely fulfilling training life officially began.

Every morning before dawn, the squadron rings the bell and urges people to get up.

Adult men and women over the age of fourteen were all up quickly, ate dry food randomly, and carried different farm tools and tools to the village head according to the requirements of the team leader the day before.

Everyone must arrive before the bell rings twice, and those who are late will be deducted for work points. Everyone is not sure what the work points are, but they already know that from next month, their whole family will have to exchange for food and food...

Then the training cadres briefly talked about today's learning tasks, and took them to Wangqingao to start labor practice...

There are three main types of labor practice: farming, building seawalls and building reservoirs.

At first, I was a little dissatisfied with the prospective immigrants and thought that these efforts were still needed to be learned? Who has not been farming since childhood, and who has not been employed in labor?

But learning is really eye-opening, it is completely different from before!

For example, farming is a matter of land. Although rice is planted this season, although northerners don’t understand it very much, they are still shocked.

It turns out that the seeds are not sprinkled directly into the field. They are all made of excellent varieties specially provided by the Agricultural College. After disinfection and cleaning, seedlings are first cultivated in the seedling fields.

They heard from agricultural technicians that early rice seedling cultivation was carried out in the greenhouse. Good guy, we northerners are still frozen, and the crops here are all living in the greenhouse...

The seedlings also have to prepare the land before transplanting them. What they started doing was this job. In addition to normal intercultural cultivation and weeding, they actually had to fertilize the ground. In addition to organic fertilizer, there are also chemical fertilizers such as beggars, A, and sterilization liquids. They must be mixed and stirred according to the proportion given by the agricultural technician before they can be sprinkled into the ground.

The methods of plowing land are also very different. They used humans to pull plows, but they used oxen to pull plows here, and they were all double oxen plows. What's even more outrageous is that not only are the plow bodies as a whole, but several blacksmiths from the immigrants also said confidently that the plow boards and plowshares that can be seen are all pure steel.

This statement was later confirmed by the training cadres, which was a big deal. The old blacksmiths said regretfully that they are all good steel on the blade, but you use it to plow the ground, which is too wasteful.

The training cadres laughed and said, "Food is the most important thing in the world. Is there anything bigger than farming?" The old blacksmiths could not refute it. They didn't know that it was because the group had better steel...

In fact, it is because the soil in Jiangnan is wet and heavy. Even if it is a Jiangdong plow specially developed for paddy fields, the plowshares will be covered with clay if they cannot be plowed for a long distance. The farmers and workers have to stop the livestock, cut off the clay and continue to cultivate the land, which greatly drags down labor efficiency.

Through continuous exploration, the technicians of the Agricultural College found that if the plow plate and plowshare are polished and the shaped plate is suitable, the plow can be cleaned by itself when arable land. After repeated experiments and improvements, the "Menghe Pai" self-clearing plow was finally established in the 12th year of Wanli.

The following year, the plowing steel production line specially built by Wuhu Steel Plant rolled the first cast steel plow plate for Jiangnan Agricultural Tool Factory.

By last year, that is, in the 16th year of Wanli, Wugang had reached the level of an annual output of 50,000 sets of plow plates and plowshares, which allowed the group to replace 60% of the paddy field plows with Menghe brand Ziqing plows.

For mass production, any improvement in production tools is worth it.

Using the original Jiangdong plow, two oxen and three people can manage five hectares in one farming season, that is, five hundred acres of paddy fields. After changing to the Menghe River, the labor efficiency has not only increased by 60%. In addition, the Menghe River plow has installed movable plow arrows to control the depth of the plow and no longer requires a human handshake. Therefore, a labor force can be reduced.

He is skilled in driving cattle and is not even required to lead a cow. He can build two cows and plow the fields by himself.

Two cattle and one person can cultivate 800 acres of land in one season, and the labor efficiency is more than doubled?

For overseas administrative regions with vast land and sparsely populated areas, this improvement is even more important. Immigrants need such a magical tool to help them open up boundless land.

Given that the self-clearing plow is mainly provided overseas, how to control, maintain and simply repair the self-clearing plow is a compulsory homework for circumstance immigrants.

In addition to learning to farm in paddy fields, prospective immigrants also have to go to dry fields to learn to harvest.

They all thought to themselves that they could always pick up the lost face now, right? Can they still harvest flowers when harvesting wheat? Aren’t they bent down, put down a sickle, and pull it from the root of the wheat...

As a result, when I arrived at the site, I found that I really didn’t know much, because I used a disc-type human harvester to harvest wheat, which was five to eight times more efficient than using a sickle to harvest.

Moreover, after receiving the wheat in the yard, it was also a human thrust machine to get rid of the wheat straw and wheat shells, and the efficiency was even more high.

The most shocking thing about them was that the last weighing of five stones of wheat per acre of land was made on average...

"Uh God..." The prospective immigrants' chins were about to fall to the ground.

In their hometown, the best land is only one and a half stone per mu. Most of the arable land is even more difficult to even get a stone of wheat.

But here can be made into five stones per acre!
Chapter completed!
