Despite the light snow in early winter, Yang's carriage finally entered the house.
In the past two days in Jiangnan, the willow wind was not cold, but when I returned to Zunhua, the wind was biting. Yang Fan opened the car door and got out of the car with Chen Xi, even though both of them temporarily wore thick cotton old-fashioned military coats. Still,
It feels very cold.
"Master, you are back," Xiao Niangpi ran over happily and took Yang Fan's hand.
From the time he got married to now, Yang Fan rarely leaves his wives. This time, he left for a week, which felt so long.
"Well, luckily everything went well on the way. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to come back today." Yang Fan said, holding her hand.
"As the saying goes, women don't worship the stove and men don't worship the moon. Although our family is big, you are the only man. If you are not at home, we can't worship the stove prince." Xiao Niangpi said. "If a woman sacrifices to the stove, the gods will blame her.
of."
Yang Fan leaned close to her ear and whispered: "Who said there isn't one? There's still one in your belly, right?"
At this time, the child has not yet formed, and who knows whether it is a boy or a girl. However, Yang Fan's words were so endearing that they touched the heart of the little mother-in-law. She immediately became happy. This sentence made her feel elated more than any number of flattery words.
"Hmph, how do you know? It's not like you can pinch or count." The little girl rolled her eyes at him coquettishly. Even though she said so, she was still happy in her heart.
"Chen Xi took good care of you along the way. That girl was so busy studying all day long that she couldn't even cook. She still needs someone to take care of herself, so I regretted letting her go.
"
Xiao Niangpi glanced at Chen Xi behind, and whispered.
At this time, Chen Xi's brows had faded and her long hair had been changed into a woman's bun. Her face was radiant and her face was flushed. She looked like a newly married young daughter-in-law.
"They took good care of me. As you know, I live a simple life and don't have many requirements." Yang Fan said.
Yang Fan is used to being independent and not used to being served by others. He does everything by himself.
"I've met the master," Lin Yueru and Mei Xiang also came over to pay homage to Yang Fan.
"Get up quickly, the ground is cold." Yang Fan quickly pulled them up.
Zhang Geda, Lu Dan, and Mo Zuo came over.
Zhang Geda said: "Sir, the stove sacrifice is ready. Do you want to know when it will start?"
"Now that everything is ready, let's get started. If we finish the business as soon as possible, everyone can start the dinner." Yang Fan understood everyone's psychology very well. They were all waiting for the master at this time, and they were probably already hungry.
Xiao Niangpi said: "Master, please take a seat and accept the greetings of the stewards at home first. After giving out the red envelopes, we will begin to worship the stove."
The maids and servants immediately brought an Arhat bed and set up a small folding pavilion on it. This was a product brought over from modern times to block the light snow.
Invite Yang Fan and his wife to sit down. The chief steward Zhao Fu sang loudly: "All the stewards come in and pay homage to the master."
As soon as Zhao Fu finished speaking, thousands of Yang Mansion's stewards, large and small, lined up in five ranks according to different systems and entered the main hall and courtyard one by one.
Those who are qualified to come to this courtyard today are all managers of all sizes in the Yang Mansion system.
It is these people who manage the Yang Mansion's own territory. Without their hard work, Tu Shanyue would not be able to manage the territory in a clear and orderly manner.
"I wish you and your wife prosperous descendants and princes and nobles for all generations. Bow! Bow again, bow three times, get up!" Following Zhao Fu's command, thousands of people bowed down neatly and kowtowed three times.
"Hahaha, everyone, please get up, no gifts." Yang Fan said with a smile. "Everyone has worked hard this year."
"Don't worry, little ones. The master and his wife are running the house well." Everyone replied in unison.
"My wife and I are aware of your contribution. The grand occasion that our family is today is inseparable from your efforts. Two years ago, our family was just a family of more than 300 people working in Xinghe Iron Works. At that time, everyone
When we ran out of food, I was still worried about how we could ensure food supply for so many people. Who would have thought that now, there are more than 300,000 households. The fields we have developed have finally balanced our food expenditures this year.
No need to rely on outside
It’s food.”
There was a sighing sound below, all the sounds of tears.
These managers were all promoted last year. They were all talented people who were originally from the Xinghe Iron Works and were recruited from the previous batches of refugees. They still have fresh memories of the miserable life in the past. Thinking of the huge gap between the past and the present, each one of them is moved.
It feels like a lifetime ago.
In this era, having enough to eat is the greatest happiness.
Not only did their family save themselves from starvation, but they also became stewards of the Yang Mansion, earning high salaries and enjoying various benefits such as free medical care and schooling for their children. The Yang Mansion was also prospering.
Natural disasters are not terrible, droughts are not terrible, but unreasonable systems and harsh social environments are terrible.
The climate in the north has not changed, and has even worsened this year.
However, thanks to the strong organizational capabilities of Yang Fan's system, as well as the management organization that has gone deep into the village level, and its efficient administrative execution, all measures have been truly implemented.
Reservoirs and ditches were built, water was released to wash the saline-alkali land, seawater rice seeds were planted, and guano fertilizer was used. Later, steam engines were also used to dig wells and pump water in dry land.
Even in order to deal with insect pests, Yang Fan early introduced pyrethrum plants as raw materials for pesticides. Now, if we are not strong in chemistry, we will develop plant pesticides.
Phytopesticides refer to pesticides made from plants or their active ingredients that are toxic to other plant diseases and insect pests. The active ingredients contained in pyrethrum, rotenia, and tobacco are pyrethrin, rotenone, and nicotine.
This type of pesticide is not only safe for humans and animals, but also does not pollute the environment. Therefore, this type of pesticide is one of the focuses of modern development. Of course, Daming can also vigorously develop it.
A large amount of flue-cured tobacco is grown on Yang Fan's territory. After the tobacco leaves are processed, the remaining tobacco stems can be used to make pesticides. Use them completely without wasting anything.
The pesticide factory is currently only for self-use, and it is not ruled out that it will be put on the market in the future.
"Fu Zhao, please pay this year's year-end bonus." Yang Fan turned around and said.
"Here," Zhao Fu turned around and said, "Hand out the red envelope."
The maids were carrying plates with stacks of red envelopes on them, each with a name written on it.
The stewards all wear badges on their chests with their titles and names written on them. It is Yang Fan's requirement that the stewards wear uniform uniforms and wear badges. In this way, it is clear who does what.
Stewards range from Level 1 to Level 5, with different benefits and responsibilities.
The first level is the top level and there are not many people.
Great housekeepers like Zhao Fu and Aunt Mei; Xiang Yi and Xiang Ying sisters who are in charge of financial approval and cashiering; Huang Daya and others who are responsible for the security of the inner house.
For all managers, the year-end bonus is a New Year's gift wrapped in a red envelope.
