Chapter 183: Full Preparation

The Yellow Turbans are ravaging the entire Divine Han land, and countless people are displaced.

Of course, on Su Fan's side, in these two months, the refugees have suddenly increased. In just two months, hundreds of thousands of people have flocked here.

Su Fan naturally welcomes the population. If he wants to develop, he naturally cannot do without those people.

This world is quite sparsely populated, although the population is estimated to be more than the Earth of the previous life, Huaxia.

But the area is ten times larger than the area of Huaxia.

Most people are concentrated around the city, because the closer to the city, the safer it is.

As for forming villages at the foot of the mountain, there are almost none. After all, there are monsters and beasts in the mountains and rivers. Not to mention monsters and beasts, even ordinary wild beasts are not something that ordinary civilians can deal with.

This also caused a large area of wasteland in the wilderness. Places far away from the city, the wasteland is even more worthless, and those aristocratic clans don't even look at it.

Around Su Fan's military camp, for hundreds of li, it was originally a wilderness without human smoke. But after he arrived, he established a military camp here, and the Taiping Dao believers who followed him also settled here, built new villages, and opened up wasteland fields, which led to today's pastoral scene of crisscrossing paths.

The arrival of hundreds of thousands of people did not bring any pressure to this place, because Su Fan is not short of food here.

There is fish meat in the ocean, which has reduced the consumption of grain by the people here a lot.

Coupled with his scientific farming and unscientific spells, the yield of crops in the fields is not much worse than that of later generations.

Of course, Su Fan knows that in the future, more refugees will come here. Perhaps it will not be hundreds of thousands, but millions or more.

At that time, his pressure will definitely be greater.

"Come here!"

"Young Master, do you have anything?"

"Go call Gaoyang over."

"Yes, Young Master." Gao Niu responded with a muffled voice and left. Not long after, a young man walked behind Gao Niu.

"Young Master!"

Gaoyang is also a member of the Gao family, and not a retainer of Gao Hu and the others, but a collateral descendant of the Gao clan.

Of course, it counts as being outside the five generations of mourning.

"Gaoyang, how many sea ships are there now?"

Su Fan previously let Gaoyang be responsible for the fishing work of the fishing boats. Now that the world is in chaos, refugees are constantly fleeing to him.

He must have enough food, otherwise, it will also be dangerous here.

Grain is harvested twice or even three times a year, but it is too slow, so he put his food on the ocean.

The ocean is rich in materials, far exceeding the land, especially fish, which are countless. Fishing has become the most important work in the next year.

As long as enough fish can be caught and then pickled, it can be stored. In the future, if more refugees come, he can also hold on.

As long as he holds on for this year or two, he has already opened up a million mu of fields, and there will be more in the future. By that time, even if it is millions of people, he can afford to raise them.

And the more people there are, the more wasteland he can open up. He has some Soul Dao cultivators in his hands. Even if they are dry fields at first, they will soon turn them into high-quality paddy fields.

After holding on for this year, Su Fan will no longer be afraid of the restrictions of food.

So it is especially important now.

"Young Master, our fishing fleet has three second-generation sea ships, eighteen first-generation ones, and more than thirty entry-level ones."

"Hmm! Since that's the case, next, I need you to lead the fishing fleet to catch as many big fish as possible in the sea. The more fish meat you catch, the better."

"If there are not enough people, I will send people to support you. If there are not enough ships, I will send people to continue building them. If big ones don't work, use small ones."

"I need you to bring back enough fish meat for three million people for half a year in these two months. Can you do it?"

"Young Master, don't worry, the subordinate will definitely do his best."

Gaoyang heard this, without hesitation, immediately said decisively.

"Good! Sure enough, I didn't misread you. If you do it, the reward at that time will definitely satisfy you. Even a Soul-Refining Soul Dao cultivation method is not impossible."

When Su Fan finished the last sentence, Gaoyang's eyes were as bright as lightning.

"The subordinate, even if I die, will complete the Young Master's order."

A Soul-Refining cultivation method is something he has always dreamed of. Although he is also considered Gao clan, it is already outside the five generations of mourning.

They have no profound Soul Dao cultivation method at all. The family's cultivation method can only allow them to cultivate to the seventh level of Soul-Nourishing.

He is naturally unwilling. He wants to get ahead, but this is not simple.

Even many direct descendants of the Gao clan cannot get ahead, so he can only take the risk to follow Su Fan and come to the Taiping Dao here.

He also knows that if one is not good, they all have the danger of being beheaded.

But at this moment, he felt that everything was worth it.

Soul-Refining cultivation method, he also decided in his heart that no matter what, he must complete the task assigned by the Young Master.

"Gao He, next you take people to open up wasteland again. No matter what, you must open up a million mu of land for me this year."

"Farm tools, I will let the Ministry of Industry send people to build another batch for you. Troubled times are coming. By then, more people may flock here. Land is the most important thing."

There is a large amount of land outside the city. Su Fan and the others are eight hundred li away from the nearest county town, and there is wilderness for hundreds of li around. This is considered cheap for Su Fan.

Of course, opening up wasteland fields is not easy, and the wilderness is also very dangerous. Su Fan and the others are often attacked by wild beasts.

But ever since Su Fan led the personal guard battalion to constantly hunt wild beasts and even monsters in the wilderness, this place has become relatively safe for hundreds of li around.

Very few wild beasts have come to attack the villages.

As for monsters, only those famous mountains and rivers can nourish them. Ordinary small mountains and rivers cannot breed monsters.

With Su Fan's order, centered on the military camp, for hundreds of li around, it soon entered a tense and orderly mass production.

Those new refugees, under the command of Su Fan's subordinates, slowly integrated into it. After all, the bottom-level people are actually very easy to manage. As long as they have food to eat and a place to live, they will not have any resistance at all.

Of course, among them, there are also some thorns or those from bandit backgrounds. The result goes without saying: they were suppressed and then pulled to the prisoner camp to open mountains and dig mines.

Su Fan needs a large amount of ore to refine steel. Although the extraordinary martial artists in this world are all good at mining, extraordinary martial artists are too few after all. Su Fan uses them as explosives, and then lets ordinary people go to mine.

The outside world is in deep water and scorching fire, while Su Fan's place is quite peaceful.

But soon, the peace here was broken. ===== CHAPTER 184 =====
