If it weren't for those other families as a comparison, and it were just Bai Shuang's family planting, the base would have already fallen out.
Those who want to plant it are eager, and even more people are eyeing it.
If it was said that at the beginning, some people scattered seeds that were eaten by insects, those people would already know what happened by now.
Several batches of white frost have already been planted here; others have long since learned how to cultivate and raise livestock.
But those few companies are different.
Who among you can farm and raise livestock as well as Boss Bai?
One sentence shut down the opposing view.
You say the Yuwen family doesn't know how to farm, but what about the individual farmers? Their results are even worse.
In this way, everyone will support Bai Shuang in planting crops, and even if Bai Shuang is unwilling, they will all beg Boss Bai to plant crops.
Only by handing over the land to her can the benefits be maximized; everyone else's hard work will be wasted.
This is why everyone says that even though those small investors had their land trampled, Mr. Lu still left them some, and even allowed them to have a small amount of land added after they asked for it back.
Everyone also said that Old Master Lu was very tolerant.
Not to mention the base survivors comparing their farms to others, even the old scholars at the agricultural research institute were comparing their farm to Bai Shuang's farm.
The conclusion is that Bai not only had ingenious methods in medicine, but also in farming.
The Bai family is blessed with good fortune that others cannot emulate!
Fortunately, Bai Shuang has a large storage space that can be stacked infinitely.
Now, we must hurry up and harvest all the grains, vegetables, and medicinal herbs before the polar night arrives.
The two armies are also cooperating fully.
Without a large workforce, even if Bai Shuang had three heads and six arms, she wouldn't be able to cultivate so much land.
Every time they came to help, Bai Shuang would provide them with meals.
"Commander Liu, I'll take care of the meals, but I'll have to trouble your camp's cooks. I'll only provide the ingredients."
"I can't possibly cook all this food for you."
"That's right. My niece-in-law is boss-making material. How could she cook? Just give her the ingredients."
Sometimes he called Bai Shuang "brother and sister-in-law," and sometimes he called her "niece-in-law." Bai Shuang found him very amusing.
Watching the soldiers working hard to harvest wheat and husk corn, Bai Shuang said to Commander Liu, "I'm busy these days, so I won't pay you every time. I'll give you the last payment."
Commander Liu: "No need, no need, it's all what I should do, it's my duty."
That's the logic, and that's what they say, but soldiers are human too, and they need military rations.
For people who have been starving for years, who wouldn't be envious of so many crops?
People are so eager to help because they can gain something from it, right?
"Work hard, Commander Liu. Hurry up and help me finish harvesting the crops. I'll give you 10,000 mu as payment."
Since these fruits of labor are the result of everyone's joint efforts, Bai Shuang doesn't want to keep them all to herself.
This would make life easier for the soldiers and also alleviate the pressure on the base's food supplies.
"real?"
Wang Jun was overjoyed, but then suddenly remembered something and quickly said, "We came to help you, how could we accept any reward?"
"Alright, alright, don't be so polite, the soldiers need to eat."
There are tens of thousands of people there, and during the harvest season, they have to work for more than a month, not counting those who helped beforehand.
Bai Shuang owns more than 600,000 mu of crops. After deducting 40% for the base and 10% for employee wages, the remaining half is a huge sum.
This doesn't even include meat and eggs.
This is the last batch, so let's be generous and ensure the military camps have food reserves so the soldiers don't go hungry.
"Don't worry, I guarantee I'll do a good job and make sure every grain is harvested."
Ten thousand mu? With the harvest from Bai Shuang's crops, it's enough to feed their 30,000 soldiers for two years. Plus the military rations distributed to them by the base, they won't have to worry about food for the next few years.
He needed to share this good news with his subordinates as soon as possible.
The number of people helping Lu Yu's army camp is twice that of Commander Liu's force, so giving this side 20,000 mu is fair.
Lu Yu is her husband, but he has so many subordinates. If the distribution is unfair, there will be complaints, so she must treat everyone equally.
Bai Shuang's generosity quickly came to the attention of Commander Wang, who couldn't sit still any longer and went to see his superior.
"Sir, we also want to help."
"Why are you looking for the girl? What do you want with me?"
"Please let her know, I'm afraid she won't agree if I go by myself."
Old Lu glared at him, annoyed, but as a leader, he had his own magnanimity.
"Alright, you can go back now. I'll talk to the girl. As for the reward, how much or how little she gets is up to her. Don't worry about it."
When Grandpa Lu told Bai Shuang the news, she remembered Commander Wang's character and firmly disagreed.
But Grandpa Lu said, "It was the soldiers who helped, not Commander Wang."
It's for the soldiers, not for Commander Wang and his family.
Besides, the polar night is almost here, and you still have so much to collect. Time is tight; you're rushing to the end.
Bai Shuang reluctantly agreed, "However, we've already harvested half of it. If they send 30,000 people, we can only give them 5,000 mu?"
"Just give me whatever you think is appropriate."
In fact, Commander Wang was unwilling to speak to Lu Laokai, but several of his division commanders insisted that he do so.
They said, "If the general doesn't go, we'll go find him ourselves."
First, Lu Yu's army went to the farm to help and took full advantage of it. Later, Commander Liu also joined in and started to take advantage of it.
Only their army were like ascetics, receiving no benefits whatsoever.
Clearly, their army commander's in-law is no good. He only farms a small amount of land, and his harvest is far inferior to that of Boss Bai. What benefits could he possibly gain?
There's no benefit in it. It's a small matter if they go hungry, but once this opportunity is gone, it's gone forever. If the land yields nothing for the next few years, all the soldiers under my command will starve to death.
But their army commander was stubbornly unrepentant.
No, this is the last harvest; they have to get some, no matter what.
So, several division commanders went to him together, and only then did Commander Wang have no choice but to plead with Old Lu for leniency.
The day after Lu told Bai Shuang, several division commanders under Commander Wang led their teams to help.
Bai Shuang did not see Commander Wang. Bai Jiu said, "He probably felt ashamed."
The division commanders were very welcoming to Bai Shuang.
"Hello Mr. Bai, we're here to help."
Bai Shuang nodded and instructed Bai Jiu and the other person to arrange for them to work in a more distant location.
The higher-ups weren't on good terms, and there was still concern that the two soldiers might clash because they didn't like each other.
Bai Shuang first told them what tasks they needed to do and the corresponding rewards.
"Thank you, Boss Bai."
"But could we take care of all the finishing work and give us an extra thousand acres?"
Finishing touches?
Bai Shuang thought about it and realized that this was quite a task; she had to deliver the straw from each plot of land to the base's paper mill in exchange for points.
There are also many projects covering more than 600,000 mu (approximately 40,000 hectares).
