The land of Lingnan, that is, the area at the junction of the subtropics and the tropics, has abundant rain, high temperatures throughout the year, is the most suitable area for crop production, fertile soil, and vast land area, if fully utilized, Suning can think that the Lingnan region can rise rapidly and become the second Guanzhong, and even the grain output is higher than Guanzhong, and the special geographical environment of the Lingnan region makes it able to grow more cash crops, such as sugarcane, such as rubber!

Although rubber is useless now, but sugarcane is definitely a very useful crop, the Su family controls sixty percent of the profits of the Datang sugar manufacturing industry, but these sixty percent profits can not be compared with the income of Wei Xianju, the reason is that it is not easy to make sugar, the price is too high, the market is difficult to expand, if you can fully develop Lingnan, plant sugarcane and then transport sugarcane by sea or the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal to Chang'an City, and even set up a sugar workshop in Lingnan!

If you can, Suning is sure to let sugar into the homes of ordinary people within five years, so that the people have one more condiment, one more condiment, one more spice, although the Su family and Li Xiaogong jointly purchased a piece of land in Lingnan to plant sugarcane, becoming a sugarcane plantation, but the number is still too small and too little, if it is not for taking into account the landlords of Lingnan and Feng An, Suning really wants to engage in sugarcane planting, and make sugarcane planting a pillar industry in Lingnan in a short period of time, and vigorously drive the growth of Lingnan's economy.

Lingnan is a treasure land, as for Hainan Island, which is further south of Lingnan, it is also a treasure island, which is also suitable for growing tropical crops, most of which are cash crops, which contribute to the development of industrial economic agriculture.

Datang is undoubtedly an agrarian society. It is still an incomplete agricultural society, if you want to transition to an industrial and commercial society, then you must develop the agricultural society to the extreme, Guanzhong has not yet been developed, not to mention Lingnan and Jiangnan, Lingnan is now close to the water, it is a good time, if you can get the strong support of Feng Ang and others, Lingnan's take-off is only a matter of time.

Therefore, it is difficult for Feng Ang to refuse Suning's conditions, and give him a generous reward and enough temptation. Make it difficult for him to handle. Suning believes that there is no impossible deal, only an inappropriate price, as long as the price is enough. There's nothing you can't buy and can't sell. Feng An's current appearance is already tempting.

That's right. He was tempted to say that it was not that the crops on his land could not feed everyone, but that was a difficult problem. Not everyone can be fed and clothed, and the tenants and tribes have not complained, and sometimes it is more difficult to get flooded, so they will choose a good place to establish Fengjia Village for them to live in and settle their own family, that's all.

It is precisely because of this that the output of land cannot be sustained, so Feng Ang will make up his mind to go to sea to develop new sources of wealth, to ensure that after his death, the Feng family will not be poor, and will not make a split for this, which is the most fundamental purpose, but now, if you get the seeds of high-yield crops, the output will be several times better, not only enough to eat, but also to sell, store, and make a lot of money!

The big landlord is also a rice and grain merchant, this is a way to make money, if you can get seeds, and you can get farm tools and agricultural technology, then the Feng family can fatten up! Suning has no point in it, its own land is not only 10,000 acres, far more than it, it is hundreds of thousands of acres, thousands of hectares of land, almost the entire Lingnan including Jiangnan has its own land, the largest piece is a full 100,000 acres, hundreds of millions of acres of land, the special land of Fengjia Village, the rest are reserved for emergencies, most of the time no one cultivates.

Five generations of wealthy families, five generations of shepherds, the accumulation of wealth is terrifying.

If there are enough high-yield crops, Fengjia Village can be self-sufficient, and other places can be divided into manpower to plant, all that needs to be paid is 10,000 acres of land and 1,000 tenants, and the imperial court also gives money, but it is necessary to make a gesture by itself, and drive the entire Lingnan big landowners to sell a small part of the ancestral industry together, in exchange for several times the increase in output value.

Feng Ang really can't think of a reason to refuse this condition, if he refuses, I'm afraid he will die of laughter, right? will also be restricted by Suning in many things, Suning does not dare to move openly, but who can know if he is secretly doing something at sea? You can lose your little money in three or two clicks, no matter how you look at it, it's better to accept the conditions! Also, instead of being scattered, the land south of the Yangtze River is estimated to be Suning's target.

In this way, Feng Ang felt that he would simply sell the 30,000 acres of land in the south of the Yangtze River that could not be cultivated to Suning, and concentrate on developing in Lingnan, not only for the Feng family, but also for Suning...... He's still young! The future is limitless! It must be that he died first, and then he died, and it is not a problem that he can live for a few more decades, at that time, the Feng family will probably have to rely on him!

Almost in an instant, Feng Ang decided to have a good relationship with Suning, and the previous contempt drifted away with the wind, Feng Ang smiled: "For this condition, the old man can't think of a reason to refuse, the old man has always been a reasonable person, so, Su Hou, please rest assured, as long as Su Hou says, the old man will be the first to respond!" ”

Suning was overjoyed, stood up and saluted Feng An: "Feng Gong is well aware of the righteousness and far-sighted, it is really a blessing for the Tang Dynasty to be able to get Feng Gong to guard Lingnan!" "You don't need money to say good things, but you can make others happy, so why not do it? Anyway, Suning can't think of the benefits of not saying good things, and he can't think of the disadvantages of saying good things.

Feng Ang laughed, his heart was settled, and then he waved his hand again and again: "Compared with the conditions given by Su Hou, the old man needs to pay too little, which makes the old man so embarrassed, the old man never likes to owe anyone's affection, so the old man decided to give Su Hou a big gift too!" I wonder if Su Hou is willing to accept this gift? ”

Suning was stunned for a moment and asked, "Dare to ask what kind of gift it is?" ”

Feng Ang stretched out three fingers: "The land south of the Yangtze River, the Lujiang River, 30,000 acres of fertile land!" ”

Suning was suddenly taken aback, and then overjoyed: "Is what Gong Feng said true?" ”

Feng Ang laughed and said, "How can the old man ever deceive people in his life? Since the words are spoken, they will never regret it! It was a piece of land that the old man bought in his early years during the southern and northern wars. I wanted to do a separate office and live back and forth, but the affairs of Lingnan are complicated, and it is estimated that I will not have the heart to take care of the land of Lujiang for thousands of miles in the future. ”

Suning was really happy, not only did Feng Ang take the lead in letting go of 10,000 acres of land, but he also let Feng Ang then let go of 30,000 acres of land in Jiangnan! This, this is simply an airplane with a cannon! But. This guy is too rich! I really underestimated him! Enclosure. It has actually reached such a point, it is really a rich man's land, and the poor have no place to stand.

"Feng Gong rest assured, the imperial court has always been about faithfulness. Where is the reason for Feng Gong to give away 30,000 acres of fertile land for nothing? The imperial court will definitely buy Feng Gong's fertile land at the market price. Definitely won't let Feng Gong suffer. Feng Gong was well aware of the righteousness in this matter, and made great contributions, and stayed after the next return to the court. I will definitely ask for credit for Gong Feng in front of His Majesty! Suning bowed again.

Feng Ang waved his hand again and again, laughed, extremely happy, both of them got what they dreamed of, achieved a win-win situation, of course, whether it is really a win-win, but also depends on the development of the back, Feng Ang is a man who speaks, a spittle and a nail, say support is supported, Suning arrived at the Audit Department the next day, officially announced the opening of the port, the start of shipping, Feng Ang then sent the head of the Feng family fleet to report to the Audit Department, to the City Shipping Division to receive the certificate, and then, twenty-eight fleets followed, The whole Lingnan was in a sensation.

Three days later, after getting the clear support and authorization of Li Er's majesty, Suning convened a joint meeting of large landowners who owned land in Lingnan, and officially announced the policy of the imperial court at the meeting.

At the critical juncture, Feng Ang coughed twice, and took the lead in making a statement, willing to sell 30,000 mu of land in Lujiang and 10,000 mu of land in Luozhou and 1,000 tenants, a total of 40,000 mu of land and 3,256 tenants to the imperial court at market price, Suning was overjoyed, and handed the symbolic three bags of seeds and the certificate of the imperial court allowing the planting of high-yield crops to Feng Ang who came to attend the meeting, and then took out the contract, and there was no problem after giving Feng Ang a look, and the two sides signed their names, stamped their respective seals, pressed their handprints, and the transaction was completed.

Feng An's posture had a decisive impact on the direction of the whole meeting, after that, a group of people who had reached the point of being willing to accept immediately gave up the struggle and decided to accept, a total of fifteen decided to accept on the spot, Suning signed contracts with these fifteen families respectively, they sold more than 20,000 acres of land and hundreds of tenants, and less also sold thousands of acres of land and more than 100 tenants, and then the second batch, the third batch, within one day, fifty-three landlords and the imperial court signed an agreement.

Suning counted the number of land and tenant households, and the land sold to the imperial court has increased to nearly 300,000 mu, and the number of tenant households is 3,400, and the population has exceeded 10,000 people, and the large landlords in Lingnan are far more than 53 families.

On the first day, there were 53 houses, on the second day there were 47 houses, on the third day there were 40 houses, and for the next seven days, a large number of landlords came to the Audit Department every day to sign an agreement with the imperial court, and after seven days, the amount of public land in the hands of the imperial court had reached nearly 500,000 mu of land, and the number of tenant households was 6,013 households, and the imperial court's policy of redeeming land was an unprecedented success.

Subsequently, the news spread throughout Lingnan, at first, the participants invited by the meeting convened by Suning were large landowners with more than 50,000 acres of land and property, but after that, countless small landlords also flocked to the Guangzhou City Audit Department from all directions, strongly demanding to start talks with the imperial court Qincha Suning Su Marquis.

Suning met with the representatives of these middle-level landlords and listened to the people's opinions, and they expressed their dissatisfaction with the imperial court's policy of only redeeming large landlords of more than 50,000 mu of land, is there any difference between 49,999 mu and 50,000 mu? Why be isolated from meetings? We also have land, we are also landlords, we also demand the cultivation of high-yield crops of the imperial court, and we also have enough to eat! We are also Datang nationals!

Suning smiled secretly in his heart, but at the same time said that this was a mistake of the imperial court, and we as officials did not take it into account, so we decided to spread the scope of the next step to the landlords between 10,000 mu and 50,000 mu of land, and they could also sell land and tenant households to the imperial court in exchange for high-yield crop seeds and qualification certificates from the imperial court.

As soon as this order was given, more people in the land of Lingnan were dissatisfied, and the small landlords and free people with less than 10,000 acres of land expressed their dissatisfaction, we also have land, and we also have to pay taxes to the imperial court, why do they have more land and have seeds, but we don't? They can eat enough, and we will starve to death? It's not fair! It's not fair!

After hundreds of middle-class landlords signed the contract, thousands of small landlords and freedmen flocked to the city of Guangzhou, thinking that Suning wanted seeds, farm tools, and qualification certificates, and the momentum was even greater, and he had to let the government give an explanation.
