Li Ming shook his head and said: "I will not adopt these handling opinions put forward by your intelligence department, and I will not submit them to the board of directors, at least our generation must ensure unity and stability." As for our juniors, if they are willing to fight, let them fight. ”

Zhou Billy listened to Li Ming's words, and his face was suddenly a little disappointed, but he immediately regained his composure.

Li Ming thought for a moment, and then asked, "You should have a list in your hand, right?" ”

Billy Zhou nodded silently, then turned around and took out a document from the briefcase next to him and handed it to Li Ming. After taking Billy Zhou's document, Li Ming looked at it carefully, and his face became more and more solemn.

The list of nearly 100 people in this document was actually listed, and the Ministry of Intelligence marked the list by category, and more than 20 of the names were checked off with a red pen and explained in detail.

Among them, there are a few people that Li Ming did not expect, these people are all members of the board of directors, although they are not the main initiators, but as members of the board of directors of the Far East Company, participating in it is an extremely bad thing in itself.

Li Ming had a gloomy face, put the document aside, then raised his glass and bumped it with Zhou Billy, raised his head and drank the wine in the glass. The spicy liquor ran down his throat, and the fire burned him.

Then the two of them didn't speak, just drank one by one, until the two bottles of liquor were drunk, Zhou Billy wiped his mouth and said with a smile: "Leader, sometimes......"

Li Mingyi interrupted him with a wave of his hand, and scolded with a smile: "Needless to say, I know it in my heart." Okay, you can get out of here......"

Billy Zhou nodded, stood up and walked to the door, then turned around to say something, and saw Li Ming glaring at him. I could only push the door and leave.

Li Ming sat there smoking silently, the study was full of smoke, and the atmosphere in the room was a little gloomy, making people feel breathless.

He picked up the document and flipped through it a few times, then picked up a match and lit it and threw it in the glove bucket next to him. Li Ming picked up the list again. His face hesitated for a moment, but finally he stood up, picked up the document bag next to him, and put the list inside.

At this time, Hanako happened to push the door in, and when she saw the fire in the glove bucket, her face was stunned for a moment, and then she turned around and trotted away.

After a while, she hurriedly ran in with the kettle. Covering his nose, he opened the window, waited until the papers in the glove bucket burned to ashes, then picked up the kettle to extinguish the embers inside, and then trotted out of the house with the glove bucket.

When Hanako came back, Li Ming was still sitting there smoking silently, Hanako came behind him with a smile, gently rubbed his shoulders for him, and Li Ming reached out to hold Hanako's hand. The two stayed quietly for a long time before going back to rest.

The autumn harvest in the Far East is coming, and all parts of the country are again busy with intense busyness. Several members of the Standing Committee of the board of directors of the company and some members of the board of directors went down to the grassroots level in various places. Inspect the autumn harvest at the grassroots level in various localities.

In the autumn of 1643, the weather was good in all parts of the Far East, and the vast fields were full of busy and lively scenes. Regions such as Liaodong, Outer Northeast, Luzon, Nanyang, Indochina, India, and Hetao all achieved bumper harvests of autumn grains.

Although the grain reserves of the Far Eastern Company have increased year by year, and they have long ceased to worry about grain, they are facing the scene of bumper harvests in various places. The Far East is still basking in the joy of the harvest.

This year, the Far Eastern Company has intensified its efforts to gather displaced people in northern Daming, and the number of displaced people has reached a record of nearly 4 million, of which more than 2 million have been resettled in India, more than 500,000 in the Indochina Peninsula, and 200,000 in Luzon. The islands of the South Seas also resettled 300,000, and Liaodong only resettled less than 500,000.

After several years of hard work by the company, a large number of displaced people from the north of Daming have been settled in the vast and fertile land of the Ganges River Basin and the Indus River Basin in India.

These displaced people are all from farmers who have been digging in the soil for several lifetimes, and they have worked hard for generations facing the loess with their backs to the sky, but they still can't fill their stomachs after a year of hard work day and night.

Once there is a disaster and a famine, it will be a tragic disaster for them. In particular, the great drought in Chongzhen caused a severe drought in several provinces in the northern part of the Central Plains for seven consecutive years, countless displaced people fled with their families, and a large number of old and weak women and children starved to death in a foreign land.

Now they have been taken by the Far East to a foreign land, where there is fertile land, a warm climate, a dense network of rivers, and crops can be grown all year round. Such a place is simply a paradise for these displaced people, most of whom live in the northern part of the Central Plains.

After several months of intense winter training, the displaced people were resettled in various parts of India, and the Far East Company still distributed land, housing, seeds, surplus grain, oxen and carts, farm tools and all kinds of necessary daily necessities in the form of loans.

These homeless people, who were once on the verge of death, also radiated incomparably huge energy, getting up early every day and rushing into their own land. They have all experienced the great drought in Chongzhen, and they have watched their families die in front of their eyes one by one, so they cherish this hard-won life very much. Facing the golden patches of the vast fields, the hearts of each newly resettled homeless people were filled with the joy of the autumn harvest.

This year, more than 300,000 displaced people have been resettled on both sides of the Yellow River in the Hetao through various means. In recent years, under the leadership of Zhou Lin, the vast number of soldiers and civilians in the Hetao area have dug a large number of irrigation ditches on both sides of the Yellow River, and continuously pumped the water of the Yellow River into the farmland on the banks through a large number of steam pumping facilities.

The banks of the Yellow River, which were once barren, are now full of potatoes, corn, soybeans and wheat, as well as endless sunflowers, especially in autumn.

As far as the eye can see, pieces of green gauze tents meander up the slope, rolling and circling. There are also patches of golden wheat waves, like rolling waves on the sea, and the scene is spectacular.

Gao Jianguo and Li Ming stood on a high ground on the bank of the Yellow River, looking at the spectacular scene on both sides of the Yellow River with gratifying faces, and they couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in their hearts.

"The Hetao area is really worthy of the Jiangnan outside the Saiwai, it has only been a few years, and the agriculture on both sides of the Yellow River has developed to such a scale, and the employees of the Hetao Base Management Committee have made great contributions."

When Gao Jianguo said this, he turned to Zhou Lin behind him and said with a smile: "Xiao Zhou, you have worked hard in the past few years, and our Far East Company needs hard-working talents like you, and we also need a leadership collective like you Hetao." ”

Zhou Lin shook his head and said: "The development of the Hetao to this day is not my credit alone, the conditions here are so difficult, if it were not for everyone's concerted efforts, it would not have been possible to achieve today's results." (To be continued.) )
