Chapter 884: I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it

When the committee members in the conference room heard Hu Wei's words, they were all stunned, and although they felt incredible, they still cheered loudly. Everyone excitedly circulated the telegram sent by Qiao Haipeng, and the originally depressing atmosphere of the conference room now became extremely joyful.

Although Qiao Haipeng's telegram was only a rough estimate of the Indian theater of operations, everyone knew very well that the estimated figures were often very conservative, and the exact figures in the final statistics were definitely much higher than the estimated figures.

The Far East has been forced hard for more than two years, and it is driven crazy by food. Every year, he desperately went around getting food, went to Siam and Nanyang to extort money, and even did not hesitate to let the Far East Army send troops to Japan, Korea and India, which was simply exhaustive.

Even so, the company's annual grain reserves are still very tight, and the people of the Far Eastern Company are gray in order to solve the food problem, but there is still no use.

Originally, this year, the company also hoped that the autumn harvest in Liaodong and Northeast China would be bumper as before, but it did not expect that the Far East suffered a very serious drought this year.

This time it was finally relaxed, and the seizure of Bangladesh alone could meet the consumption of two million displaced people in the Far East for a year this year, which is also very powerful. And that's not counting the seizures of the Indus Valley, the Ganges River basin and the coastal areas of India, which were all historically India's grain production bases.

While everyone was happy, they were also very puzzled in their hearts, when did Ah San become so rich. When I remember the modern society, Ah San has never been so wide, and the most impressive thing is the various Xiang, all kinds of cows, and the disgusting holy river that is all over the street.

I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it...... Ah San in this era is still a local tyrant.

And according to Qiao Haipeng, India's textile industry is also very developed, and the seized cotton and various textiles are piled up. The ports along the coast are running out of supplies, which the Far East urgently needs at the moment. Every year, the company receives more than two million displaced people and needs a large amount of cloth and cotton. There are also a lot of carpets and blankets, and you say that it is hot in India every day, and you want blankets and carpets to dry up.

Anyway, as long as the food problem is solved. Then all the problems of the Far East will be solved.

The food, clothing, housing and transportation of the homeless people, without clothes, can be exquisite, and it is really not possible for two people to wear a pair of pants, and they can also deal with the past. There is no housing to build a large number of woodcarved flutes, that thing is time-consuming and frost-resistant, and in the future, it will be demolished, and the logs used to build woodcarved flutes can be continuously reused, and there is no cost at all.

But food is really something that can't be dealt with. Even if it is two bowls of gruel per person every day. More than two million mouths, which is an astronomical number in a year. What's more, the employees of the Far Eastern Company and the officers and soldiers of the Far East combined, there are always hundreds of thousands, and a large amount of food is also needed every year.

The people in the conference room were all relaxed at this time, and everyone was lively enough, and suddenly there was a feeling of extreme exhaustion. In the past two years, everyone's hearts have been crumbling tightly. Now that I am relaxed, I am a little tired. I just want to find a place to get a good night's sleep.

Wang He glanced at everyone, picked up the water cup and paused lightly on the table, and then said with a smile: "Hey...... I said that everyone should be in good spirits, it is not time to relax yet, no matter how much grain there is in India, we must transport the grain to Liaodong. Now there is still more than a month before the freezing of Liaodong. We still have a lot of work to do. ”

Gao Jianguo listened, and nodded and said, "Lao Wang is right, our time is very tight, and we can't delay it at all." I propose an immediate emergency mobilization. First of all, ships to receive displaced people were carried out in various parts of the Ming Dynasty. Immediately, the displaced people changed their course and sailed to India, unloaded the displaced people in India, returned to Liaodong with full grain, and after unloading the grain in Liaodong, they went to Daming to ship the displaced people to India. ”

Hu Wei thought for a while and said: "In this way, the Indian region must strengthen the management strength of the Ethnic Affairs Committee, and the Ethnic Affairs Committee will now also mobilize, transfer elite soldiers from various departments of the company, and also transfer a large number of grassroots management cadres from various places to form the Indian Management Committee, which is responsible for the reception and resettlement of displaced people in India." ”

Wang He thought for a while, then whispered a few words to Gao Jianguo next to him, and then said with a smile: "Lao Guo, you go to India." Now Li Ming, Hu Wei and Lao Han can't leave, Lao Gao and I still have a lot of things to do, and only you are left. The main job you do when you go to India is to develop the agricultural resources there, which is the most important thing. ”

Guo Song nodded after hearing this and said, "I'll start preparing as soon as I go back, and I'll recruit troops and set up the Indian Management Committee in the next few days." ”

Gao Jianguo said in a deep voice: "After you arrive in India, you must cooperate well with the Intelligence Department of the Military Commission, the situation there is very complicated, first of all, we must maintain stability in the area controlled by the Indian subcontinent, and strive to gain a firm foothold within two years." In order to alleviate the pressure on Liaodong and the Outer Northeast, India will receive a large number of displaced people in the next few years. ”

As soon as the meeting of the board committee ended, the company began to get busy again. The ships that were receiving the displaced people off the coast of Daming changed course one after another, carrying a large number of displaced people to India.

Five 10,000-ton steamers also formed a huge fleet, dangling around the coast of Daming, pulling full of displaced people, and then sailed to India.

Guo Song also began to recruit troops in various departments of the company, set up the Indian Management Committee as quickly as possible, and then got on the airship, and quickly rushed to the Indian region to start the preliminary layout, and a large number of grassroots management cadres and political cadres in the Far East got on the ship to India.

The Indian theater of operations is also stepping up its efforts to make arrangements, establishing a large number of homeless camps in the coastal areas, and hoarding large quantities of grain, cloth, and other materials. A number of backbone personnel were transferred from various units in the theater to manage the large number of displaced people who had recently flocked to Yin.

As the telegrams from the Indian war zone continued to be sent back to the company, the people in the Far East were also a little dazed by the waves of surprises. In addition to the large quantities of grain, knitwear and cotton that the Far Eastern Company has continued, the gold and silver seized in Agra, the capital of the Mughal Empire, and other prosperous cities, as well as various precious pearls, gems, works of art and other materials have completely subverted everyone's worldview.

In addition, there is a huge number of craftsmen, which makes everyone in the Far Eastern Company even more ecstatic. These are the talents that the Far East needs the most, don't look at them as uneducated, but as long as they enter various departments of the company and train for a few years, they can become a qualified industrial worker.
