"It's not a question of which side or the other," Shui Wangtai shrugged at Cheng Jun, "The natives buy things from us, and the more they buy, the more they feel that they have no money, and if they are poor, they just think about change, the only difference is that some people will choose to work hard, while some people will choose to take risks." In fact, the Spaniards invaded the Americas and plundered the silver of the Americas, in order to buy all kinds of curiosities from the Ming Dynasty, the Spaniards set off a large number of treasure ships from the Americas to Batavia every year, and then went north to Guangzhou, using these full loads of silver to buy porcelain and spices from the Ming Dynasty and other luxury goods to be transported back to Europe to become gold, and then went to the Americas to continue plundering. The main reason for this is to buy rare toys and luxury goods from the Ming Dynasty. ”

"Am I to blame?" Cheng Jun's face was strange, "What the hell do you want to say?" ”

Shui Wangtai smiled, "In fact, economic flow is such a thing, money in economically backward places will flow to economically prosperous places through various ways, in the laws of physics water flows to the lower places, and in the economic laws, the water of wealth flows to the higher places." There is a theory that people with money will get richer and richer, and people without money will only get poorer and poorer, and we come from that world, so we are naturally clear about this situation. ”

"What do you mean by this to the Medeno people?" Cheng Jun continued to ask in the direction of Jacqueline, Jacqueline vaguely heard the pronunciation of "Maidno", and couldn't help but raise her head to look at the conversation between Cheng Jun and Shui Wangtai, even if she didn't understand, she still looked nervously.

Shui Wangtai shrugged his shoulders again, "It's very simple, it's to coexist and prosper, tie them to the same rope as us, that is to say, hand over a part of the primary industry, the extremely polluting industry to them, let them produce, and let them stay in the same boat as us." ”

"Deindustrialization?" Xiao Jing pursed his lips, "De-industrialization is impossible, and many things in primary industry are secretive, if they are handed over to production, it is likely to climb the technology tree through some inadvertent steps, and at that time, it will not be something we can control." ”

"What are you talking about? Can I understand? Jacqueline couldn't help it, everyone was talking about something, and she could only stare wide-eyed, trying to understand but unable to do anything, and couldn't help but be a little frustrated.

Cheng Jun shrugged his shoulders, "Don't mention these things, it's useless for us to continue, if you want to engage in technology diffusion, you have to go through the analysis of the big library and then submit it to the Industrial Committee of the Senate for discussion, no matter how good we talk about it here now, it's useless." And look at this princess," he said as he waved his hand at Jacqueline, "She's obviously very interested in what we're talking about now, and we're really talking about something related to her, but we just can't tell her, what I said, what should we do, I'll go back to sleep, you little couple hurry home and make people, Xiao Jing, you can continue to be a light bulb, let's not be a light bulb for you." ”

"Are you talking about war with Meedno?" Jacqueline finally couldn't help it anymore, and hurriedly asked loudly, "In the past, I was a strong supporter of war, but since I arrived in this city, I haven't had this idea, and it would be a pity if you wanted to start an all-out war with us." ”

"Of course," Xue Fanxing, who was excited on the side, heard Jacqueline's words, and hurriedly echoed, "I think so too, you look at this war, the trade between the two sides has also stopped, and there are still dead people, and our raw materials are ......" Shui Wangtai on the side hurriedly tugged at Xue Fanxing's waist and said in Mandarin, "Don't break it blindly, those are secrets, if you say this, Gu Qingqian's negotiation side will ask you to open the door." As he spoke, he stood up with Xue Fanxing, nodded slightly towards Jacqueline, and said, "Today's night is very beautiful, and I will take my wife to blow the sea breeze, I wish you a good night." After speaking, he couldn't help but say that he pulled Xue Fanxing and left.

The stall owner in the distance was stunned with three bottles of salt soda in his hand, why did the chief leave before the soda came up? couldn't help but stand there and didn't know what to do, Cheng Jun sighed and beckoned to him, "Don't take it if you bring it, just put it here." As he spoke, he turned to Xiao Jing and said, "You haven't forgotten what I said before, have you?" ”

"Oh, that colonial trade department, huh?" Xiao Jing was a little absent-minded, and Cheng Jun sighed, "It's the Department of Foreign Affairs and Colonial Development, and the other is the Department of Economic Development Planning." ”

"Uh-huh," Xiao Jing nodded hurriedly, "yes, yes, it's the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Colonialism, so do you want to go out to run diplomacy or colonization now?" ”

"No, no," Cheng Jun shook his head, "I want to go to the Economic Development Planning Department, at this stage, our industrial development is basically what we think of, and what we have the technical conditions to do ......"

"Wait a minute," Xiao Jing hurriedly interrupted Cheng Jun before he finished speaking, "Aren't you in the Planning Commission?" Isn't the Planning Commission the Planning Commission? It's supposed to be a planning department for economic development, so why are you trying to get another one out now? ”

"No!" Cheng Jun's face suddenly had a distressed look, "Where am I or the Planning Committee?" It's basically the logistics department of the Senate, the second class of general affairs! Don't look at the Industrial Committee, the Agricultural Committee, the veterans are like ants who can't afford to level the threshold of our Planning Commission, but these are all ants who have come to move! We're all waiting to remove all the old world supplies in our warehouse! But who is at the mercy of the Planning Commission? No! No one listens, as long as the heavy industry laboratory makes any new equipment, there will be new factories immediately, and these factories cover a small area, just build a greenhouse of more than 100 square meters to start production, and this Annan is not cold, now this is January, there is no snow, so the requirements for the production site are also very low, and we don't need to approve it at all to start directly. In their eyes, our Planning Commission is simply a housekeeper's wife, and at all, it is the general manager of the interior. ”

"And what are you going to do?" Xiao Jing was out of luck, and after hearing Cheng Jun muttering a lot, his head was also dizzy, so he asked directly, Cheng Jun nodded and hurriedly said, "That's the case, the industrial committee must send a veteran to manage this project, preferably you or Zhang Yuan, of course, it is better to come together, as long as you are not afraid of trouble." ”

"Why do you want us?" "It's very simple, you are a member of the executive committee, with the power granted by the Senate, you can directly manage the speed and scale of the spread of these industries, and moreover, Zhang Yuan is directly in charge of the heavy industrial laboratory, which can ensure that all technologies can be promoted in a planned way once they are developed, so as not to make the industrial committee bored and confused." Cheng Jun opened a bottle of salt soda as he spoke, poured himself a few sips, "In fact, this problem has been a long time, you see, industrial production needs raw materials, although the number of all raw materials is said to be in the industrial committee, but once it is produced, the consumption is very large, and the industrial committee cannot grasp the real-time information, so that there are no raw materials and they don't know, and they are still producing frantically." ”

Xiao Jing nodded, "The problem you mentioned does exist, some time ago it can be seen from the quota of raw materials imported from overseas, it is simply a mess, in order to be able to make their factories produce smoothly, almost all factories have sent people to the dock to bribe businessmen to give priority to transporting raw materials to their factories, so that even the quota of grain imports has been squeezed out, almost causing famine." ”

"Famine is impossible," Cheng Jun shook his head, "even in that so-called most difficult time, the stock of grain submitted to the Planning Commission and imported by the Committee of Agriculture has only reached the level of yellow alert, and now the fourth phase of the farm opened by the Committee of Agriculture has also begun to plant, and the farmland contracted by Anyun has also begun to produce grain, and now the grain reserves have long been twice the warning reserves." But we can't stay in the port of the East forever, we still have to expand outward, colonize abroad, there are still so many uninhabited islands in the Pacific Ocean to occupy and explore, why do we want to nest in this small place? It is necessary to give full play to the capacity of the port, otherwise it will be blocked in the Oriental Port when the technology really spreads on a large scale. ”

"This member of the Committee of Agriculture has told me," Xiao Jing nodded, "The tropical crop seeds we bring now are not suitable for planting here, and now the planting is purely to ensure the vitality of the seeds, and when the opportunity for development is ripe a little later, we will transport personnel and materials to the tropical islands for planting." ”

"Yes, rubber, quinine, coffee, cocoa, oil palm can grow here, but Sun Wenbin told me that it will grow better at lower latitudes, and those tropical islands basically have coconuts or something, and irrigated rivers are not a problem, as long as you want, you can find a suitable place to plant, the key problem is to go out."

"It's not a big problem to go out," Xiao Jing picked up the peanuts and threw them into his mouth, took a sip of salt soda and continued, "Now the two free ships are already doing the final inspection work, in fact, the outer one has already completed the preparation for launching, just waiting for the one inside to finish launching together, as long as it waits for the water, it can start outfitting, and the dry dock can be immediately vacated to prepare for the construction of the next batch of ships." ”

"Oh? Going to get on the next ship so soon? Cheng Jun was a little stunned, Xiao Jing nodded, and then shook his head, "It's not fast, right?" We are really making changes here, and there are problems with the drawings given by many parts. Our timber mill is processing parts according to the drawings, but when we arrived at the site, we found that it was not suitable here and there, and it could not be installed, so we could only go to the site to modify, which delayed a lot of time. ”

"Oh, that's fine, as long as it doesn't come up with some good idea on the spot, and it has to be taken apart and rebuilt." Listening to Cheng Jun's words, Xiao Jing scoffed, "Think beautifully, our two were originally transport ships, but those guys from the navy insisted that the navy might use these two transport ships as warships in an emergency, so they asked to remove all the upper decks that had been almost covered, add a layer of iron armor near the engine compartment, and were afraid that the engine would stop due to flooding, and specially laid dome armor, which alone delayed the construction of the free wheel by four weeks." ”

"Those guys at the shipyard are just tossing around with them?" Cheng Jun was stunned for a moment, he also heard about the armor plate, Xiao Jing shrugged his shoulders, "I am also against it, but the guys in the shipyard are very happy, saying that they can also accumulate experience in this way, and they will have enough experience when building armored cruisers in the future, so I can't stop them at all, so I can only let them disassemble and assemble there." Don't you see, the Navy's own two modified versions of the Victory class have not yet been tossed, but the two free wheels have been tossed aside, and the deck of the free ship has been specially reinforced, saying that if it is to be gunned in the future, it will not be necessary to specially strengthen the deck. ”

"They really put their hands in Gu Qingqian's pocket......" Cheng Jun was a little speechless, Xiao Jing took a sip of soda, "Yes, the last time Gu Qingqian's Ministry of Commerce and Trade stopped funding the navy, it seems that it hasn't attracted their attention, but now Gu Qingqian has a lot of things, and she is too lazy to come over to find trouble with them, and when she comes to look for trouble, she can't make a mess." ”

"Ahh She was still in her office, with a negotiation note spread out on her desk, on which Chinese characters were neatly written, "Who is scolding me behind my back?" She couldn't help but smile wryly, and looked up at the watch on her left wrist, it was already about ten o'clock in the evening.

With the bell ringing "Ding Ding", "Come in." Following Gu Qingqian's instructions, Liu Liting gently pushed open the door and walked in, holding a brown paper envelope in her hand, walked to Gu Qingqian's desk, and put her hands on her desk, "This is a special document just sent by the Special Department, I will go out first." With that, he left the office and closed the door gently.

Gu Qingqian picked up the envelope, it said "Send it to Gu Qingqian", she flipped the envelope over, there was a red wax guide on the seal of the envelope, and the fire paint seal was intact, indicating that it had not been opened, she couldn't help but sneer, "Who can understand this thing except us?" As he spoke, he tore open the envelope and poured it on the table, and a small box slid out, and when he opened the box, there was a memory card lying inside.

She sighed, pulled out the desk drawer, and took out a laptop from it, but after logging into the desktop, she saw a warning that the battery was about to run out in the lower right corner, and couldn't help but sigh, "It seems that I don't need to continue to work overtime today." He stood up.
