Zhao Gang returned home excitedly, but saw his father-in-law Zhang Jian sitting upright in the hall, his face very bad. Zhao Gang felt awe of this old man who was a father-in-law and master, and said with a smile:

"My father-in-law, why are you here today? I'll ask Yunlan to cook some side dishes for you and have dinner with you."

Zhang Jian snorted

"Son-in-law, I ask you, did you get those people from North Korea?"

After saying that, Zhang Jian stared at his son-in-law, trying to see something.

Zhao Gang was surprised and his smile remained unchanged. "My father-in-law, North Korean immigrants were just fleeing in spring. When the son-in-law was still in the capital, how could he do such a big thing?"

Zhang Jian stroked his beard with his hands, his face slightly calmer

"If not."

Zhao Gang also breathed a sigh of relief and asked carefully

"Does there any illegal North Koreans mingle with them?"

"That's not, but there are too many refugees coming in this time. Although they use labor for relief, half of them still have no jobs. They spend more than 100 taels of silver every day, and they can't support them in the past few days."

Zhao Gang thought to himself and advised him

"My father-in-law, why not let these people go to the Northeast to open up wasteland? On the one hand, they can reliably and open up a fertile land for the Qing Dynasty."

Zhao Gang was so excited

"The Songhua River area is a good place, with fertile land thousands of miles away but no one can develop it. All tens of thousands of North Koreans can be sent there to develop it."

Looking back at Zhang Jian, Zhang Jian’s eyes were cold, like a glacier that had been around for thousands of years.

Zhao Gang felt that a basin of cold water was poured from the top of his head to the soles of his feet, and his whole body was cold. After all, he was still too immature and was deceived by the words of the old fox Zhang Jian. However, how did Zhang Jian see it? Zhao Gang really couldn't understand: "My father-in-law, why do you think of your son-in-law so? Could it be that your son-in-law did something wrong?"

Zhang Jian said sternly: "Okay, let me ask you, the North Koreans were not brought by you, why are you actually arranged in an orderly manner? Even if you open up the land, you thought of it, a small prefect, holding a large army, and working in foreign countries, buying foreign ships without authorization, and selling your ancestors' family business to outsiders. What do you mean?"

Zhao Gang has been very smooth all the time, making Zhao Gang think that everything is in his control. Zhang Jian's words woke him up like a wake-up bell. However, Zhang Jian's question is very easy to answer. This question has been called countless times in his dream, and he really came out of his mouth.

"Mr. Zhang, do you know that the chaos in Korea has emerged today. Although the Qing Dynasty looks like a lot of flowers and fire, it is actually full of holes and has lost the momentum to move forward. On the other hand, the United States, which I went to last two months, had a strong national strength, which had already exceeded our country several times, and the European powers were mostly like this. These countries have aggression and have long had bad intentions towards our great China, but they were unable to look east because the industrial revolution has not yet been completed. Recently, the revolution of these countries has been completed, and their strength has increased greatly, and they have been sharpened. They are the pedestals, and I am the fish. The Qing Dynasty must follow the example of the Western powers in carrying out the industrial revolution and become able to dominate the East. Now the court only cares about dry ponds and fishing, regardless of capital development. How can it be done? The son-in-law takes the risk of developing industries and buying property, but in order to enhance national strength and defend foreign invaders, there is no other intention. I hope Lord Taishan will rest assured."

Zhao Gang said something powerfully, and Zhang Jian was speechless and said after a long time:

"You have no other intentions. I see that the poem you wrote is full of a domineering spirit, and it is impossible to say it is an antonym. You hold elite soldiers and have the power to control it, and you have no shortage of weapons and ammunition, and you also have civil affairs. Do you think you have no antonym?"

Zhao Gang was speechless and said for a while:

"My father-in-law, Zhao Gang did this just because he was afraid of foreign countries in the court."

Zhang Jian was furious, "Bastard, how can the court stolen the country? If the court stolen the country, you can rebel."

"My father-in-law, if the court does not sell its country, the son-in-law will be dedicated to assisting the court."

After the two of them said that, they looked at each other. Since they were clear, both the father-in-law and son-in-law knew each other's bottom line, so they no longer had to be polite. Zhao Gang was responsible for the matter of the land reclamation, and the money and food were provided by Zhang Jian. Zhang Jian got up and returned home, and Zhao Gang saw him off. When he walked to the gate, Zhang Jian turned around and said to Zhao Gang:

"Boy, care more about your wife and be more flexible."

This sentence is insane, so Zhao Gang had to nod, but he was very confused.

Seeing his appearance, Zhang Jian gently patted Zhao Gang on the shoulder.

"Boy, if it weren't for Jin Tian, ​​I knew... Well, I had to deal with you well, so it would be so easy to pass." After saying that, the smile on his face could no longer be held back, so he had to get into the sedan chair and leave behind the inexplicable Zhao Gang.

When he returned to Yunlan's room, he saw his wife lying lazily on the bed. Zhao Gang thought Yunlan was sick. He hurriedly walked forward and held Yunlan's hand, "No wonder my father-in-law asked me to take care of you more. It turned out that Lan'er was sick."

Yunlan's expression was very strange when she heard this, but she actually started laughing. When Zhao Gang saw her laughing trembling, she had thoughts and became furious. Yunlan refused to push Zhao Gang's big hand away like usual and said breathlessly:

"Go and find Banmei, I feel uncomfortable."

After saying that, he pushed Zhao Gang out of the door. With a ping-beep sound, a string of silver bell-like laughter came from behind the door. Zhao Gang felt something was strange, so he took a few shots and didn't open, so he had to go to Banmei's room in disappointment. Unexpectedly, Banmei actually said that he wanted to accompany his sister and left Zhao Gang alone in the house. Zhao Gang had no choice but to go to the study room to handle the upcoming land reclamation work.

The Northeast in the history books is a thick land that is rich and fertile to black. Until before liberation, tens of thousands of farmers in the pass went outside the pass to "break through Guandong" every year. The richness of the land in Guandong and the large virgin land waiting to be developed have been preserved to the "new society".

The Great Northern Wilderness is located at 123-40' to 134-40' east longitude, spanning 11 longitudes; from 40-10' to 50-20' north latitude, it runs 10 latitudes, with a total area of ​​55,300 square kilometers. In the north, it is the Lesser Xing'an Mountains with extraordinary temperament. In the west, it is the Songnen Plain Area. The Nen River flows south from the Yilehuli Mountains and merges with the Songhua River. In the east, it is the famous Sanjiang Plain Area.

The Heilongjiang River flows thousands of miles away, the Songhua River turns ten thousand times, and the Ussuri River is gentle and quiet. Three water veins meet quietly in the depths of the plain and flow eastward to the sea. The vast Xingkai Lake is next to it, and the beautiful Wanda Mountain runs across it. The average altitude is 54 meters, and one-tenth of the slope falls form a rare flat terrain.

The Thousand Mile Wasteland is boundless. The North Great Wilderness is one of the three major black soil zones in the world. The soil is fertile and has the reputation of "a squeezing the black soil and sprouting with oil, and a pair of chopsticks." The North Great Wilderness has rich water conservancy resources, with rivers on the surface, considerable groundwater, and abundant atmospheric precipitation, which is extremely suitable for agricultural development. The arable land is as high as 40 million mu, and grain crops such as wheat, soybeans, corn, and rice can be planted.

The Beida Wilderness has an area of ​​2.5 million mu, a grassland has 6.16 million mu, and a water surface of 3.72 million mu. If used well, a moving scene of soil producing gold; water becomes clear and clear flows for thousands of miles; trees turn green and green fill the green mountains.
