Chapter 88: An Xin loyal to the chairman
, these ordinary people cannot be pretended. If a person becomes lively, he must have a certain degree of confidence, and confidence can be provided by material things.
As we can see from the appearance of these people alone, the people in the three provinces of East China Autonomous Region have far more material resources than those in other provinces.
Yan Xishan and Chen Jiongming were walking on the street. They came to a teahouse. What is the name of the teahouse? News and teahouse. "Walking into the teahouse, I found that there was no storyteller inside, but a radio that was making a sound.
The two sat in the teahouse, ordered a cup of tea and some snacks, and also sat there and sounded the radio.
This radio broadcasts news, with more news content, and the main news is concentrated in Anhui and Jiangsu. In these days, the three East China Autonomous provinces have become five East China Autonomous provinces, and the government is carrying out administrative reforms to the newly joined two provinces.
"Since the East China government occupied the south of the Huai River, the people of northern Anhui are eager to join the scope of East China's autonomy. The East China government has received dozens of letters of request for voluntary wishes. According to the latest news, the East China government has reached a consensus with the Beiyang government that Ni Sichong, who occupied northern Anhui, will withdraw from northern Anhui within one month, and northern Anhui will be under the jurisdiction of the East China government to achieve the unification of Anhui."
"The Ministry of Civil Affairs of the East China Government has mobilized about 10 million tributes of grain and other daily necessities into Jiangsu and Anhui provinces. It is expected that the relief of poor households in Jiangsu and Anhui provinces will be completed within one and a half months to ensure that the poor people in Jiangsu and Anhui provinces have no food and clothing."
"Listen, according to the news from the Ministry of Construction, the Ministry of Construction will complete the railway networks of Jiangsu and Anwei provinces within two years. It is expected that about 4,000 kilometers of railway lines have been added, plus the 10,000 kilometers of railway lines have been built. The total construction plan has reached 14,000 kilometers. It is expected that the construction of railways, plus the driving force of other industries, can bring about 10 million jobs to the five eastern autonomous provinces. After the current railway network is completed, any county town transportation in the five eastern autonomous provinces will enter the railway era..."
"Puchi..." 14,000 kilometers of railway." Yan Xishan sprayed out after hearing a sip of tea, and was really scared by this number.
"Brother Yan, is there anything wrong?" Chen Jiongming didn't understand. He was not very sensitive to the number of kilometers and had no specific concept.
"That's ten thousand kilometers! How much does it cost to repair it?" Yan Xishan said in surprise: "The East China government has so much money?"
"I don't know." Chen Jiongming shook his head.
"I think you don't understand it! The railways in our three autonomous provinces in East China are built with private capital, and the government needs money to spend money." A middle-aged man among the guests next to him shook a paper fan and said.
"Can private capital raise such a huge sum of money to build a railway?" Yan Xishan asked incredible.
"Now, everyone in the three autonomous provinces of East China basically buys railway bonds or railway stocks. With more money earned this year, the railway payment will be more." The middle-aged man replied.
"Aren't you afraid that the money will be swallowed by the government?" Yan Xishan asked. The road protection movement before the Xinhai Revolution was triggered by the Qing government's attempt to swallow private capital.
The middle-aged man laughed and said, "Of course not. Our East China government has credibility, otherwise how could we buy bonds?"
There is obviously great confidence in the government in the words.
"We are foreign merchants who have just come to Hangzhou. I hope to ask for advice on the commercial policies of the East China Autonomous Government. I wonder if we can give you advice?" Yan Xishan smiled with his fist.
"You're looking for the right person. Our teahouse listens to news every day and knows the government's policies well." The middle-aged man shook the paper fan and said with a smile.
"Brother, the surname Gao?" Yan Xishan asked.
"Zhao Wang, the surname of Xiao, is the owner of the teahouse."
"It turns out that Boss Wang is disrespectful. Please give me advice on which industry to do business is better?" Yan Xishan asked with a smile.
"When it comes to investment, the most popular ones are currently running industry and agricultural reclamation companies. Both are very profitable." Boss Wang of the teahouse pointed out: "When it comes to running a factory, as long as you want to run a factory, the government will give you advanced equipment and technology. Most of these equipment and technology are not even comparable to foreigners. However, this depends on the category of industries such as imitation weaving and papermaking, which are all dominated by Zhongsheng, and Huasheng Group, so it is not easy to squeeze in. But if you want to run an industry, there is a law that is most suitable for use."
"What law?" Yan Xishan asked curiously.
"That's what foreigners can build, but we can't build. If you want to run such a factory, the government can get the equipment within half a month. Moreover, the equipment is better than the foreigners, and the things we make are cheaper than foreigners." Boss Wang said.
"There is still this?" Yan Xishan was surprised. Boss Wang said: "That's natural. Now the capitalists in the three autonomous provinces are doing this. The government has a good policy, that is, you don't need to pay immediately when buying equipment. You can get the equipment first by using a loan method, that is, you owe money first, or simply exchange shares for equipment, that is, the equipment does not need to be paid back, so the threshold for running a factory is relatively low."
"What's going on with the agricultural reclamation company?" Yan Xishan asked.
Chen Jiongming heard this and said, "Last year, I saw many agricultural reclamation companies rent land to Guangdong to plant sugarcane, which is about 20 million acres.
"This brother said it well. The agricultural reclamation company rents land and grows things everywhere. Speaking of agricultural reclamation companies, it makes money! Last year, those agricultural reclamation companies bought tens of millions of acres of land in Jiangsu to grow cotton, and directly made hundreds of millions of dollars." Boss Wang said.
"How could the agricultural reclamation company make so much money?" Yan Xishan said dumbfounded.
"Because the chairman has invested in it, these agricultural reclamation companies will say that they grow cotton when they have high-quality products. Ordinary cotton will grow at most two quintals of cotton per acre. If the government manages a high-yield cotton acre of land, it is possible to collect five or six quintals, but most of them only grow four to five quintals, which is more than twice as high. In addition, the chairman will give advanced production equipment. For example, agricultural reclamation companies use aircraft to fertilize land, and the labor costs are also saved, so the agricultural reclamation company will naturally make huge profits." Boss Wang said.
"But agricultural reclamation companies have a division, that is, planting cash crops and growing grain crops. Cooking cash crops means making money by yield and advanced management. There will not be too much labor, but the output is more. Therefore, in a good year, the money will be made faster. As for growing grain, there are rice transplanters when sowing, seeds, and so on. When harvesting, you use a harvester as big as a hill, and you can manage thousands of acres of land by one person. If you have less labor, the profit will naturally increase."
Yan Xishan was very moved by the fact that he could set up a farm reclamation company in so many places in Shanxi! He asked: "What should I do with this farm reclamation company?,
"If you want to start an agricultural reclamation company, you have to have a lot of money. Especially now the government is not too short of agricultural reclamation companies, and banks are not willing to lend money. And if you want to open an agricultural reclamation company, it is a pity that the management is just a good example. You have to go to the Agricultural Meat School of East China University to ask this college student to come out to help the zombie. However, they are more popular now and are not very good. Some of them are even booked as soon as they entered the school. Several agricultural reclamation companies almost started fighting last month because of the dispute."
"No! If a person can plant thousands of acres of land, what will the farmers plant? Aren't they making no living?" Yan Xishan suddenly thought of the market problem. If productivity develops to this extent, then grain prices will definitely plummet, and farmers will definitely not be able to survive.
"You don't understand this! The price of grain is certain that many farmers have already entered the city to work. Now they are built everywhere, and there are railways, highways, bridges, and factories that are under construction every day, and there are laborers everywhere, so if you can't survive in the countryside, you can find things to do in the city." Boss Wang said, "Now, a large number of migrant workers come to the city every day. I heard from the radio that this is called urbanization and industrialization. In the future, most people will come to establish, and the number of people in the countryside will be reduced by at least 70%.
"Of course, the government has also considered this issue, so last year, mechanized farming was not popularized. This year, mechanized farming has been used in areas where mechanized farming is used. As for those mountainous areas that cannot be used in mechanized farming, they are planted with better economic benefits, such as fruits. The prices of grain and meat are very low now, but fruits are really scary."
"Is the meat price also very cheap?" Yan Xishan asked unexpectedly.
"Of course it's very low. Now every county town has several large farms, which raise a lot of pigs and cattle, and chicken farms are everywhere. If you want to invest, it is also a good choice to set up a farm. Now the government has good pig breeds and cattle breeds, and the feed is also very cheap. Anyway, you can't lose money by raising this. The question is whether you can grab people from universities and technical schools. Without professional people to help you raise them, no matter how good they are, you will be in a mess."
"Why is the feed very cheap? Yan Xishan asked continuously, and Chen Jiongming felt drowsy when he heard it.
"Of course the feed is cheap. The government has high-yield corn and high-yield soybeans. That corn can produce ten quintals per acre. The whole plant can be used for silage and can have tens of thousands of kilograms of feed. The government said it is necessary to work hard to develop the breeding industry so that everyone can eat meat every meal and eat enough."
"Everyone eats meat! This is unlikely~!" Yan Xishan said incredible.
"Of course, chicken is very low now. It's just a hard worker working on the construction site. You have to eat pork and chicken every day, and you have to eat something full. Now life is much better than before. Babies go to school. Not only does the tuition fee cost a penny, but the school also packs all the food for babies. The food is really good. There is meat and milk every day, which makes those babies who go to school no longer like to eat at home."
Yan Xishan couldn't help but feel astonished. People in the three provinces of East China Autonomous Provinces have lived so well. It seems that the central government will never be able to suppress the East China Autonomous Government.
The most important thing is the people's hearts.
The East China Autonomous Government operates its territory like an iron barrel, and the outside world has basically been unshakable.
Yan Xishan talked with Boss Wang for a long time again. Yan Xishan basically asked all the curious things. Boss Wang was also patient and solved his doubts one by one.
Seeing that the time was almost over, Yan Xishan took out five Fuxing coins with a denomination of 100 yuan and stuffed them to Boss Wang as a thank you. The two of them gave in for a while, and Boss Wang then accepted the huge sum.
Yan Xishan was so generous, and Boss Wang realized that he had really met a noble person.
After coming out of the teahouse, Chen Jiongming asked drowsyly: "Why are Brother Yan interested in these things?"
"This is to see the details. You can know how far the East China Autonomous Government can go and whether we are really going right. Besides, don't you know that the administrators of the East China Autonomous Government cannot do business, but we are different. Although there is no difference from being incorporated into the East China Autonomous Government, the problem is that we can still do business. Now there are opportunities to make money everywhere under the rule of the East China Autonomous Government, so we naturally have to grasp it well. If you say you have money, there are Guangdong merchants in Guangdong and Shanxi merchants, it depends on where the money is thrown into." Yan Xishan said to Chen Jiongming: "If you are interested, we will join forces to invest, which is not worse than those Hui merchants or those merchants in Hui merchants."
When Chen Jiongming heard this, he couldn't help but nodded repeatedly and said, "Brother Yan said very well."
Now that they have signed the alliance, basically, Guangdong and Shanxi provinces have been incorporated into the jurisdiction of the East China Autonomous Government. Local separatism has gone like a big river, and doing business is a way out.
"Let's go to school again!" Yan Xishan said, "The so-called hearing is false and seeing is true." Although he had a long conversation with Boss Wang just now, many things were only heard of, but they did not see them with their own eyes.
The two took a bus to a nearby primary school. After entering the primary school, they found that the facilities of the primary school were still under construction. It seemed that a five-story teaching building was to be built.
The students in the school were building a pergola to attend class. Yan Xishan and Chen Jiongming wanted to visit, but were turned away by the teacher. Yan Xishan and Chen Jiongming had to express their province and said that the two supervisors were here to inspect and educate.
The teacher quickly informed the principal. Seeing that Yan Xishan and Chen Jiongming were indeed exactly the same as the photos published in the newspaper, the principal quickly welcomed them to the school.
They are naturally welcome to this kind of educational investigation.
Especially when studying education with foreign differences, this will help popularize education.
Moreover, this time I came to the governor of Shanxi and Guangdong, which proves their sincerity. Recently, rumors say that Guangdong and Shanxi will also implement the same education system as the three provinces of East China Autonomous. The Ministry of Education even asked schools to make plans to draw teachers.
Yan Xishan and Chen Jiongming saw a lot of things in the school, and even saw the school conducting ideological education for students. Yan Xishan looked at it and said to Chen Jiongming in horror: "If these children grow up, then other provinces will have no competitive power."
"Why?" Chen Jiongming asked.
Chapter completed!
