Chapter 293
"In addition..." Ji Yonghao thought for a while, and said: "I plan to set up a Ministry of Agriculture, find me a smart and studious Chief-In-Charge, who needs to be literate, full-time Manage all kinds of farming matters."
Chu Wei was hearing this, and as expected, he couldn't help persuading: "His Royal Highness, all those who can read are nobles or scholars, and then professional, but farming is the ability of commoners. Yes, I'm afraid they won't lower their stature. Besides... Now we have a shortage of manpower to build the city. If we want to feed these hundreds of thousands of people, I'm afraid that one-tenth of the manpower will be used to farm the land. This is too much. It will seriously delay the construction period."
"Hahaha!" Ji Yonghao laughed and asked back, "Who said that so many people are needed for farming? Haven't you seen the various machinery and equipment that is now building the city? All kinds of machinery and equipment can be used to farm the land, and even human hands do not need to touch the crops. It is done by machinery from start to finish. As long as you learn to drive machinery and equipment to plant 100,000 mu of fertile land, only 300 people are needed. That's it!"
He didn't blame Chu Wei, after all, he didn't understand what mechanized farming was.
"Can you also use machinery for farming?" Chu Wei was very surprised. In his opinion, those machines all had destructive power, whether it was automatic logging, digging ditches, or hoisting, how could it be possible Will it do such fine work? And threshing or something.
“Of course, you will find out later.” Ji Yonghao laughed.
At this time, a member of the escort team next to them heard their words, and his heart became active.
His name is Fei Yuhong. He is an intermediate professional. He is over sixty years old this year. When he was a child, his family farmed and worked as a blacksmith. He was literate. He saw His Highness the Prince's So many mechanical equipment, he has long admired it, and he knows that his aptitude has reached the top, and it is impossible to upgrade to high level professional in this life.
Since His Highness the Prince mentioned the word minister, although farming means good-for-nothing in everyone's mind, mechanized farming is another concept, maybe Others will look down on this industry, but it is also a minister. In terms of level, it is on the same level as Chu Wei and Zhao Long. It can be seen that His Highness the Prince attaches great importance to this matter. If he takes the initiative to be responsible for this matter, he will also Can you treat him badly?
So he drove the magic locomotive close to the luxury magic speeding car, and said boldly: "His Highness the Prince!"
"What are you doing! Why don't you go back?" Fei Yu Hong's immediate superior, Zhao Long, reprimanded him. He felt that his subordinate was too bold, and he dared to come to disturb His Highness the Prince. Would this make His Highness think that he was not strict with his subordinates?
I hope His Highness the Prince will not punish this subordinate, and reprimand him is for his own good.
"Captain..." Fei Yuhong regretted it in his heart, and felt that he was too impulsive. He could tell Captain in private, but now it was difficult for Captain.
"It's okay!" Ji Yonghao laughed, looked towards the professional who was three times his age, and said with a smile: "If you have something to say!"
Of course, if you say Come up with a reason, it doesn't matter, if you can't say it, I'm afraid I want him to know what the rules are and what the subordinates should do.
"His Royal Highness, I think I can do what you just said to Director Chu Wei. I know words, I have read books, I have cultivated land, and I have also worked as a blacksmith." Fei Yuhong gritted his teeth. , Still said the plan in his heart, now is not the time to retreat.
"oh?" Ji Yonghao raised his eyebrows and said in surprise, "You are an intermediate professional, don't you think farming is too aggrieved?"
He thought he could It's enough to find a small nobleman or a desolate scholar, didn't expect this professional to be willing to take the initiative, it seems that he is a person with far-sightedness.
Yes, that is, he has a great vision. This Minister of Agriculture may not be considered a decent job by most people in this world, but if he does it, his status will definitely be high-level in the future. Land and civilian farming are different.
"My subordinates feel that the mechanized farming you mentioned is not that simple. Three hundred people can grow food for hundreds of thousands of people. It must not be simple. Besides, the subordinates have limited aptitude and cultivation.
" There won’t be any Great Accomplishment either, I hope Your Highness will give your subordinates a chance to try it!” Fei Yuhong said firmly.
He can say these words, but it makes Ji Yonghao appreciate him a little bit. It's okay to give him a chance. If he can't do it, then at most he will be removed. It's a matter of his own words. , so he said nodded: "Yes, then you can try it. You first find 300 staff members and ask Chu Wei to mobilize some equipment for you. Buy the seeds, and I will prepare the equipment and materials for you."
Fei Yuhong was immediately excited, and immediately said respectfully, "many thanks His Highness the Prince, my subordinates will do their best. Done!"
"en!" Ji Yonghao nodded and said: "Remember, the land needs to be planned neat and tidy, leave a hundred meters of open space on the river bank, when the time comes to Build a road, if you did good, a viscount will not be able to run in the future."
"Yes, Your Highness!" Fei Yuhong nodded excitedly, and immediately squeezed his fist secretly.
Zhao Long also showed a relieved smile, didn't expect this old Fei to be so decisive, and he was also happy for him. This group of Old Brothers has a good future, and it is also his attractive spectacle.
......
The convoy continued to move forward, passed through the residential area, and came to the Nanshan Tunnel. The traffic artery of Soul City.
"ao!"
As soon as I got here, I heard some beast roars one after another. When I looked outside, it turned out to be some devil beasts about ten meters long and shaped like Pangolin. earth-yellow, with thick scales, looks extremely powerful in defense.
Now there are thousands of dwarves, who are commanding the gravel scales to dig the thick mountains. Pieces of large stones are easily removed by the gravel scales, and then they are dug by the excavator with the wide bucket. It got up, loaded it into the back buckets of the huge transport magic flying cars, filled it up a few times, and then the transport magic flying cars took off slowly and left with gravel.
The convoy dropped, Ji Yonghao came out, observed the tunnel, and found that the tunnel is already open, but the width is not enough. According to the blueprint requirements, the entire tunnel needs to be built 100 meters wide and 100 meters high. , split from the middle into two 50-meter-wide roads, the west is going out, the east is going in, the isolation belt in the middle, the walls on both sides of the tunnel, and the top of the tunnel will be installed with beautiful street lights.
The reason why it is so tall and so wide is because the creatures in this world are very tall. Ji Yonghao plans to live in this city as long as it is an intelligent creature and is willing to join the Holy Soul City. , If the tunnel is made short, then there will be very tall creatures that can't get in, which is not good.
Of course, you don't have to worry about it being sturdy. The whole mountain is made of very hard rock, and when the rubble scales were dug out, there was no loose rock next to it, and the entire tunnel was still arched. It will be more sturdy, and Earth Protection will be used to reinforce it later.
