Admiral in the Azure World

Chapter 238 Prestige Hobby

On Wutou Island, spring planting has begun.

The land that was originally hastily divided has been reclaimed by this group of farmers in an orderly manner.Even if the Huangjiang River brought a group of farmers in advance, it would not be able to fill the huge agricultural vacancy on Wutou Island. Early agriculture required a large amount of labor. The Huangjiang River did not have this condition. There was a shortage of people everywhere on Jialan Island, not just in agriculture. piece.

As an emerging force, it does not have such a strong accumulation, nor does it have a demographic advantage. It just relies on the trend of enclosure movements in other territories to get a share of the leftovers of the demographic dividend from the industrial revolution that has entered its peak.Most of the population of Jialan either went to the Jia Steel Steel Plant on Cycad Island or poured into the factory on Iris Island to become a worker.Huangjiang is not willing to give up its precious population, so Wutou Island naturally cannot rely on its population to develop agriculture.

Fortunately, under Huang Jiang's instruction, the Jialan Automobile Factory, which had nothing to do due to lack of output, began to develop a variety of agricultural machinery to replace traditional human labor and simple mechanical labor, and began real large-scale planting. .

As the first generation of farmers on Wutou Island, the people on the island naturally do not have the financial resources to purchase such expensive machinery, so some agricultural machinery is owned by the Wutou Island Government and leased to the residents of the island.

Huang Jiang left all the affairs on Wutou Island to Hemingway. After all, the situation here was relatively simple and it could be a good training for this student who had just stepped out of college.

Did Hemingway perform the tasks he set well?
It will take a long time to know this.

Judging from the current situation, at least it's not that bad.

Currently stationed on Wutou Island are Reputation, Rodney and Nelson. The Prince of Wales was originally there, but he returned to Gloria Island a few days ago.Because of the last attack, Huang Jiang had to deploy heavy troops on Iris Island. Nearly [-]% of the ship girls in the entire Deacon Mansion were on Iris Island, as well as Wutou Island, which actually led to the emptiness of the defense force on Jialan Island. Huang Jiang had no choice but to transfer the Prince of Wales, and adding Hood was enough.

To be honest, Huang Jiang always felt that he was a little unlucky?
The plight of the border islands is well known, so the selection of deacons on the border islands has always been a big problem. Most of the talented people who graduated from the Deacon Academy are not willing to go to such a remote place to develop their careers, whether it is material pursuits or spiritual pursuits. These islands, poor and constantly on the lookout for mirages, are insatiable.

But even if it is a dilemma, it is not as big as that of Jialan Island in the Yellow River.

Huang Jiang always felt that he was in conflict with Mirage?Why did Salinger only encounter ordinary mirages before coming here? Although there were more of them, he could still cope with them relying on Hai Yingxing. Why was it that when it was his turn, the various mirage captains from West Wind Drift took turns running away? Come out to increase your presence?
Even with more than a dozen ship girls, I feel stretched.

After carefully analyzing the situation in the sea area, Huang Jiang can probably understand the reasons for this situation.When there was only Jialan Island, the mirage pressure faced by Jialan Island was actually not as serious as imagined. After all, there was Cycad Island in the north and Wengzhu Island in the south. Both resource islands played a very good role in taunting. Effect, attracting most of the mirage's hatred.Huangjiang can also deal with this situation very well by relying on the three ship girls, Firefly and Lexington sisters.

However, after capturing Iris Island and Wutou Island, especially Wutou Island, the direct route from West Wind Drift to Wengzhu Island was completely blocked by Wutou Island. If you want to attack Wengzhu Island, you must pass through Wutou Island.

Huang Jiang naturally couldn't let the mirage run rampant in his own home, so the conflicts suddenly increased.

It was fine before, as he and the mirage well on Edelweiss Island were not in conflict with each other, so it wasn't that troublesome to deal with, but now it's very difficult. Since "Anglefish" wants to take action against Jialan, he will inevitably use the forces on Edelweiss Island.

What troubles Huang Jiang the most is that Edelweiss Island's long-standing rival is Lu Weihualing. Should he ask Gibran to put some pressure on Edelweiss Island?

Huang Jiang got off the boat with such doubts.

Rodney greeted him with a wave of his hand. "Long time no see! Huang Jiang." Rodney's cheeks were flushed, and his eyes were filled with joy.

"Ah, it's really been a long time." Huang Jiang has been running here and there these days. He has not been to Wutou Island since the last sea trial of the Iris, which made Rodney complain. I wanted to run to Jialan to find Huang Jiang, but I had a mission and couldn't leave here.After finally taking the rotation and returning to Gloriosa Island, Huang Jiang ran to Iris Island to learn about the situation because of traces of mirage, so he missed it perfectly.

After finally catching the commander this time, Rodney naturally wouldn't let him go. After a long period of confusion, Huang Jiang finally escaped from Rodney's hands.

"Where is your sister and your reputation?" Huang Jiang looked around and asked Rodney.

"Sister is on daily patrol and has gone to look after the tea garden." Rodney answered.

"Tea garden?" He could understand why Nelson went on patrol. After all, Jialan's destroyers and cruisers were too few, and the daily patrol work was not heavy. There was no problem with the battleship temporarily taking over for a while, but what would it be like to take care of the tea garden with Reputation?
"Yeah." Rodney couldn't guess Huang Jiang's strange mood now, and said it was normal, "Hood's black tea is almost finished, and they are looking for alternative tea in the Federation."

"Then there's no need to plant a tea garden directly..."

"Well... growing things in your free time is a prestigious hobby." Rodney said with a smile, "When she was in the port area, she used to work with Ying Rui/Zhaohe, Yixian and Shuanghai in the port area. A piece of land has been opened up on the back mountain to grow some tea, vegetables, etc. The black tea that Hood brought here is grown by Reputation. By the way, the coffee in Veneto is also grown by Reputation."

In addition to their reputation, don’t the other ship girls belong to the Celestial Fishery Administration...

Well, it’s not surprising that these people appear in the story of farming.

"But the growth cycle of tea trees is not short, right?" Huang Jiang asked suspiciously.

"I don't understand this. I only know how to water the land." Rodney said matter-of-factly.

While the two were chatting, they walked towards the hills to the south. It was a rare hilly landform on the plains of Wutou Island, and the prestigious tea garden was planted here.

It is said to be a tea garden, but in fact there are only a few tea trees, and they look like they have been transplanted, and the varieties are different. It seems that they are indeed used to select tea that matches the British black tea.Thinking about it, Wutou Island has only been in Huangjiang for less than a year. Even if the farming talent points are full, it is impossible to create a tea garden out of thin air.Sheng Sheng probably enjoys the process more than the harvest. The way she takes care of the tea trees is exactly the same as taking care of the pot picking in the office.

It doesn't look like I'm farming, it looks like I have nothing to do.

If you think about it carefully, it seems that both the God of War and the fishery administration had nothing to do when they were in the port area.
