The time for the people to return to their hearts has finally arrived, on the high platform, facing the same brilliant light, like a heavenly god, Zhang Xu's heart is also extremely turbulent, the clouds are surging, and the people's hearts are at peace. Three years have passed, and it has finally come to this day, making Zhang Xu also extremely excited.
"Long live the great immortal master!"
It was unclear who shouted, but the entire school grounds erupted in a deafening roar, with countless soldiers and civilians all kneeling down to pay their respects, their devotion unmatched, as they gazed up at Zhang Xu, whose prestige had now reached its peak.
"Long live the immortal master!"
The shouting voices on the school grounds were quickly transmitted to all directions, and soon the entire city was filled with loud shouts. Inside and outside the city, countless people knelt down to the ground. At this moment, Zhang Xu was truly a god, unshakeable...
"The hearts of the people are like this, in this evil era, as long as they give the common people a mouthful of food to eat, I am the savior. Don't worry, I, Zhang Xu, will definitely make the whole world believe in me, this immortal master. Since I have arrived in this Han Dynasty's Three Kingdoms era, the name of the immortal master will spread throughout the world!"
Feeling the surging of the cloud energy and the endless power of incense faith, nourishing his own destiny, Zhang Xu felt a sense of responsibility, but also felt an unbeatable power, that is the power of the incense faith of unity among all people!
"Everyone stand up!"
A soft voice, yet it was like thunder in the ears, transmitted to every believer's heart inside and outside the city. At this moment, Zhang Xu felt as if he had infinite magical power under the support of his faith, consuming a large amount of incense power, directly revealing a divine miracle!
"Master Xian, it's Master Xian! I've heard Master Xian's voice! Long live Master Xian!"
One by one, the believers were overjoyed and unbelievable, looking around them in shock, and then after another heaven-shaking and earth-shattering event, they slowly got up one by one. At this moment, the faith of all people was much more devout. Zhang Xu found that even ordinary believers had become loyal believers, and many believers had become devout believers, or even die-hard believers.
The harvest of faith this time is enormous, and that's the power of human heart. The root of all this is a bumper harvest, golden fields, which is a huge harvest! A peaceful mind is the best soil for faith.
"Bumper harvest!"
At the sound of the imperial edict, suddenly, on the school grounds, the Imperial Guards who had been ready for a long time shouted in unison: "The Immortal Master's order, the harvest is officially launched!"
"Ahhh..."
The cheers rose again, countless soldiers and civilians, extremely organized, shouting loudly one by one under the arrangement of their superiors, walking towards the city.
This day is the most important harvest season, so in addition to the soldiers of the Imperial Guard, guarding Zhang Xu and maintaining public safety, the rest of the army also participates in the harvest of crops. The first day is a full-on effort, followed by a half-wheel rotation exchange, with the military and civilians working together as one. This is also the best moment to increase Zhang Xu's faith!
After all, as his sharp blade in hand, the fanatical soldiers can best spread his faith, while ensuring military and civilian stability, strengthening their faith.
This is a multi-beneficial thing and with the participation of the army, it can also speed up the harvesting!
At the same time, countless swift horses also rose up in a flurry, each agile figure rapidly conveying messages to all corners of Chang County, which at the same moment began its grand harvest.
This year, Chang County developed a large area of land, reaching as much as 600,000 mu. Although more than half of this land was newly reclaimed and even more than half was virgin soil, under the application of base fertilizers such as soil fertilizer and farm manure, combined with the continuous excavation of water conservancy facilities, it has been possible to avoid large fluctuations everywhere. Therefore, although it is virgin soil, these 600,000 mu of land will necessarily have a bumper harvest, far exceeding the imagination of the common people!
Moreover, apart from Chang County, Qinglin Town, which is Zhang Xu's base, was originally a barren and uncultivated land, but after three years of cultivation, it has become fertile land. The water conservancy facilities are even more complete than those in Chang County, and it should be another bumper harvest.
It can be said that the nearly 1 million mu of arable land under Zhang Xu's jurisdiction will usher in an unprecedented harvest, which is hard to imagine. After all, according to calculations, in this era, one mu of land, also known as a "xianmu" by Zhang Xu, produces only 300 kilograms of grain, which is already considered a bumper crop. The root cause of all this lies in the gap in production technology. The farming methods are shallow and the fertilizer is insufficient, with no regular fertilization. All these have been changed by Zhang Xu, plus the guidance of the old villagers, who follow standard techniques for sowing. All these are ways to increase grain yields. Therefore, for Chang County, which is considered extremely fertile land in Zhang Xu's eyes, his confidence is overflowing!
Perhaps in the eyes of other princes, this entire Donglai County is nothing, but Changxian is absolutely a place where miracles can be created in Zhang Xu's heart, and his mentality is extremely calm!
According to the previous method, the soldiers of the seven military camps will be led by Guan Hai and Wu Qing to immediately draw 700 mu of land for grain production. They are all soldiers with strong physical strength, although a large number of strong men were drawn away, each of them has an arm strength of over 200 catties, powerful and majestic. In this way, after one hour, under the clear division of labor, the grain on the 700 mu of land was completely harvested!
Then countless people had already been divided into different tasks, some were shelling, some were weighing, so while everyone was still busy, in less than two hours, the yield of 700 mu of grain had already been reported to Deputy Director Li Ming's hands.
"Master Xian!"
Li Ming's face was filled with surprise and delight, as soon as he got the specific data, he immediately summarized the situation and rushed over. Seeing Li Ming's ecstatic expression, Zhang Xu also had a smile on his face, it seemed that they indeed had a bumper harvest.
"Li Ming, how's production going?"
Zhang Xu asked in a low voice, and He Xi's words calmed Li Ming down, but the joy in his eyes couldn't be stopped.
"Master Xian, what great joy! Seven hundred mu of land, with a total harvest of 367,836 jin of grain. Each mu of land has yielded as much as 500 jin of grain!"
"Oh, bring it before me quickly!"
Zhang Xu was overjoyed and immediately said that even he had not expected it, thinking in his heart that it would be 500 jin, but unexpectedly it really broke through the 500-jin-per-mu yield. This yield may not seem like much in a modernized previous life, can be said to be low, but in this world, it is a full and complete bumper harvest.
"Hahaha!"
As soon as he finished reading the data in his hand, Zhang Xu's mood became much more comfortable. The yield of 700 mu of land was extremely balanced, with very few below 500 kg, so most of them were around 500 kg, and the highest yield per mu of land exceeded 600 kg!
