Chapter 284: The Great Cause of Island Building

The sun hangs high in the air, radiating a little warmth, and the wet earthy atmosphere evaporates from the air.

This is a wilderness. The river called Ruifeng River turns a corner here. The riverside is covered with velvet grass. At this time, the velvet grass has begun to turn yellow. From a distance, it looks like a large piece of yellow-green. It is already the end of August, and even during the day, the weather is a little cold, indicating that the cold winter will soon arrive.

Several simple log houses were temporarily built on the hillside, and a circle of fences were built around the wooden house. Ma Xiang and Ma Pang were lying on the crossbar at this moment. Ma Xiang stared at the front with big eyes. Not far away, there was a loud monster. Ma Xiang had been popularized by science. Isayin called the monster a tractor. The tractor was emitting black smoke, and the wheels were turning and rolling forward. Behind the tractor, balls of black soil were turned up.

The tractor drove to the end, turned around and drove in the opposite direction. There were also stacks of wavy black soil behind it, one by one, and from a distance, it looked very neat.

Although Isain and Ma Xiang patiently explained, Ma Xiang still felt extremely magical, while Ma Pang was even more fascinated. Ma Xiang was a little better. She had seen steam-powered ships on the sea, and she would no longer associate it with the gods and demons. In comparison, Ma Pang was still the kind of earthen bun with no knowledge. He almost stared at the tractor without a moment, including the roars, the smoke, and the earth waves that were ploughing on the ground. Ma Pang felt very strange, and even his usual habit of being active was restrained. At this moment, Ma Pang looked like a good boy, and the only dissonance was the string of snot on his face.

Muta and several natives were squatting not far away. The onlookers were also staring at this rare thing. They all looked surprised, thinking that these visitors were so amazing and the many things they brought were so incredible. The previous divine fire was already very evil, and the monster in front of them was so fierce, and he had such divine power, so tireless, and it was too subversive to his imagination. Muta's eyes were a little dull, maybe he was stunned, or maybe he was thinking hard about why these visitors wanted to use such a monster to make a good land mess.

The natives here can at most slash-and-burn farming, and maybe they don’t even have the concept of slash-and-burn farming. It is likely that they just throw a little seed down and wait for the harvest.

Of course, time travelers cannot put fertile land without farming like the natives. This large area of ​​three rivers flowed by, which is really a rare treasure land. Since the development team came here, the land reclamation has already begun, but using magical tools such as tractors to reclaim the land, it has only officially opened today.

At this moment, Isain and Bakeli were in a wooden house. They sat by the window, and they could see the plowing ground in the distance when they turned their heads. Bakeli was wrapped in silk all over her body, wearing a modified version of the Song Dynasty silk autumn outfit, adding a bit of beauty. In the past, this was something that Bakeli dared not think about, but now, this luxurious silk outfit that only European nobles could afford was worn on her body. Bakeli felt very happy. She was also curious at the moment, looking out the window, her eyes were attracted by the magical tractor, while Isain only glanced at the plowing ground occasionally, and also had to pay attention to Ma Xiang's movements from time to time.

Liu Wenbin left the voyage and left Bakeli, all of whom were women. Isain felt that she had the responsibility to let Bakeli integrate into the life of a time traveler as soon as possible, so she would often pull Bakeli on.

It had just rained two days ago. Today was a rare sunny day. While the land was soaking and plowing, Isain felt that she could help Ma Fen manage farming. After all, farming was also very important. Because yesterday, the natives who responded to the Ma Fen Awards event sent more than a dozen pieces of coal. Ma Fen weighed the black and shining coal blocks, and his eyes were glowing and his expression was excited. It was obvious that there was a coal mine nearby. Ma Fen was very excited and took people to find the coal mine early this morning.

According to the plan, Tianqing had to let the tractor try to plow the land. Since Ma Fen was going to explore the coal mine he had always dreamed of, Isain took the initiative to arrange the mechanized farming and pulled Bakeli to come together. It was better to be a supervisor. Anyway, Isain was idle, so Isain needed to do something for herself.

Niu Meng drove the tractor. Fan Biaoyong had a lot of things to do, so of course it was impossible to drive the tractor, which gave Niu Meng a chance. Niu Meng drove the No. 1 tractor, followed a man named Wan Kui and started plowing the land in the territory designated by Wanjia, preparing to plow the land.

Wan Kui was Wan Youhong's housekeeper. It should be noted that Wan Youhong still left with Lu Wenjie and left the housekeeper. Before Wan Youhong left, he took a fancy to this land near the river bank. When Ma Fen saw that the land was five or six miles away from the center of Dongrui Town, he was afraid that it would be as many as four or five hundred acres, so he did not hesitate and directly granted it to Wan Youhong.

Two hours later, Isain asked someone to measure the plowed land. After two hours, he reclaimed more than ten acres of land. Well, it was not bad. Isain was very satisfied. After a day, it would be no problem to reclaim 60 acres of land by relying on mechanical farming. If you work overtime, you can reclaim this land in five or six days.

The next day, Han Huanzhang and Long Jiu arrived, and Lin Gui's more than 30 ships and Cai Jianwen's five merchant ships were also here. When Ma Fen heard the news, the port was already unprecedentedly lively, and the dock was filled with messy cargo.

Ma Fen told Meng Qi to unload goods and arrange the arrival of the people at the dock. Meng Qi had done this several times and was already very familiar with it. Lin Gui and Cai Jianwen cared about their people and goods, and also stayed at the dock. Cai Jianwen came to Sakhalin Island to collect fur and aquatic products after listening to Wen Yuan's words, and also wanted to see if Sakhalin Island had room to do something big. Former pirate Lin Gui turned a new life in the past two years and had not been a pirate business for a long time. This time he came to Sakhalin Island and then did another pirate deal. He grabbed a hand in North Korea and caught about 400 Koreans, preparing to make a big progress here. Lin Gui has made a lot of money transporting coal from Halong Bay in the past two years, but there have been too many cargo ships joining coal recently. When the price is lowered, the profits are not so generous. As a result, he was fooled by Long Jiu, and Lin Gui followed him to Sakhalin Island and prepared to make a fortune here.

Long Jiu and Han Huanzhang got on the four-wheeled carriage and soon arrived at Ma Fen's pioneering team command post.

Ma Fen picked up a piece of black coal from the basket and told the two of them with the attitude of sharing joy that they had found the coal mine, not far from Dongrui Town, less than twenty miles away.

"Dongrui Town? Who gave it this name? How could it be named? It sounds a bit awkward." Han Huanzhang thought it was nothing great about discovering coal mines. It is said that Sakhalin Island is full of coal mines, but the name of this Dongrui Town is a bit difficult to describe.

Ma Fen was unhappy and immediately replied:

"I'm asking, what's wrong! Liu Wenbin thinks this name is also good. Don't you want to build this place into Oriental Switzerland? Oriental Switzerland, abbreviated as "Dongrui", is almost in the later generations of Nansakhalinsk City, damn it! It's awkward to pronounce the place name of the Russians. The Russians are called Nansakhalin, and the Japanese are called Fengyuan City. It should be this area. Let's call it "Dongrui". At least, it's the word "Rui" and it's auspicious! Haha!"

Han Huanzhang didn't know about the idea of ​​building Oriental Switzerland, but Long Jiu knew about it. After Han Huanzhang handed over the Kara Isthmus rail transit to Hadek, he left for Sakhalin Island and arrived at Jeju Island. When he arrived at Long Jiu, he came with the fleet. Han Huanzhang was talking to Long Jiu about the plan to build Sakhalin Island into the Oriental Pearl. Long Jiu Suzhi, this guy is a typical paranoid. It is best not to go against him when the two of them, so Long Jiu simply became a qualified listener and did not comment on the Han Dynasty cowhide.

At this moment, Han Huanzhang was a little confused. At first glance, he could not help but roll his eyes when he heard that he wanted to build something Oriental Switzerland. However, he was a little afraid of Ma Fen, so he opened his mouth and closed it again.

It makes sense that time travelers want to build Sakhalin into Oriental Switzerland.

Sakhalin Island has an area of ​​nearly 80,000 square kilometers, and Switzerland has an area of ​​only 40,000 square kilometers. In terms of area, Sakhalin Island is almost twice that of Switzerland. In terms of resources, Sakhalin Island seems to be stronger than Switzerland. All modern people know Switzerland's core competitiveness. The first is precision manufacturing, such as the world-famous watch industry. The corrupt officials in later generations mostly wore Swiss watches, and the second is the banking industry. Swiss banking industry is the first choice for international money laundering, and even Saddam has to save money at UBS.

After studying it with the travelers, Mao Geng decided that Sakhalin Island will be built in the future according to the Swiss approach. In addition, Switzerland has a famous Alps, which is the world's snow-covered tourism holy place. In terms of snow-covered resources, Sakhalin Island is no worse than the Alps, so tourism is also worth looking forward to.

Long Jiu couldn't help laughing, thinking that Ma Fen is really direct.

"This name is good! Captain Ma is doing well here!" Long Jiu saw that the buildings were being built and even the coal mine was found. Ma Fen's achievements cannot be underestimated.

"Where are there! I have built a few houses and reclaimed hundreds of acres of land. There is really nothing to be praised. It depends on you in the future. It is still far from building Switzerland in the East!" Even though the modesty is humble, Ma Fen still feels accomplished in his heart. Ma Fen immediately remembered the tractor plowing the land and praised: "The tractor sent by Mao Geng is really not built. One machine can reclaim fifty or sixty acres of land in a day. Next time, Mao Geng will transport ten or eight more units. Two tractors cannot be arranged at all. I feel embarrassed to say it."

Long Jiu smiled and said:

"You're content! Chief Executive Mao has invested a lot this time, and this time he has transported a lot of materials. It seems that there should be two tractors. But I heard that the best thing to use here in winter is not a vehicle, but a reindeer, right?"

"Haha, I'll take you to see the reindeer."

When Long Jiu saw the reindeer, he was a little surprised. The thing had two antlers full of branches, and there were small branches on the big branches. There were so many branches that it was a bit of a superfluous meaning. The reindeer was not tall, so it was not as eye-catching as a giraffe. But I didn't expect that the reindeer's body was actually very strong. Han Huanzhang tried to twist the antlers that looked a bit complicated, but the reindeer broke free with a little force and was almost injured.

"I believe this reindeer can pull a cart, oh, no, it can pull a sled." Han Huanzhang only saw the scene of reindeer pulling a sled in the snow on TV, but now he is a little looking forward to the time to ride on the reindeer sled.

"I tell you that raising reindeer is the most promising cause in the local area. I plan to raise reindeer here. For the long-term plan, I will raise at least tens of thousands of them."

Han Huanzhang smiled and thought this was very fun.

But Long Jiu frowned and said:

"Captain Ma, I'm afraid you won't have time to consider raising reindeer soon. According to the plan we discussed in Kaohsiung, you have to go to the battlefield again."

"Oh, I know. I have a plan here. As soon as you arrive, I will go out to fight and lead a team of people to take down Holmsk, which is the place called Makano Port in the Japanese. It is the only unfreezing port on Sakhalin Island. Of course, you cannot let it go. You don't need to remind you of this." Ma Fen felt that he would like to thank the patriotic education in later generations. Patriotism education told us that the two unfreezing ports in the Far East, one is Vladivostok, and the other is Holmsk, both of which are robbed of China. Of course, this so-called unfreezing port refers to the unfreezing port inside the port. It will still freeze when it is severely cold outside the port, but the ice layer is not thick, and ordinary icebreakers can travel unimpeded.

At this time, Ma Fen looked completely full of knowledge and had a very good expression.

But Long Jiu shook his head and thought to himself that we were not talking about this.

Next, Ryuu talked about the Sado Island plan. In the plan, Ma Fen's role was to find a way to seize Sado Island, of course, to take advantage of wisdom, and then he could talk slowly with the Japanese government and opposition.

When Ma Fen heard this, he was surprised at first, but after a moment of pondering, he turned into anger and then roared:

"Bad! This is a random jb mess! Who came up with this bad idea? No! You can't do this! Who wants to do this? I'll beat him up."
