When Han Fuyu died. Meng Xiang is working with Zhou Bai to make a plan for people's livelihood on the turf.

With the stagnation of the devil's attack, Meng Xiang began to shift his attention to the development of people's livelihood. There are already starving people on the turf.

Yesterday, Zhou Bai took a newspaper and directly blocked Meng Xiang. In recent days, due to the sudden cold weather, the police and local security guards in charge of public order in various places have carried out seven bodies that died of hunger and cold.

"Aren't there porridge sheds everywhere?" Meng Xiang asked the rat with some embarrassment, in order not to starve to death, a hundred relief porridge sheds were set up in various places. Although there is not enough to eat, the amount of relief every day can also ensure that people do not starve to death. Meng Xiang also specially dispatched 200 clone soldiers to take turns to supervise them.

"There was no problem with the porridge shed. But not all the poor people came to receive the porridge, and there were also cases of people snatching other people's rice porridge. The death of these people cannot be blamed entirely on the soup kitchen. Zhou Bai hurriedly answered.

"What about the porridge snatchers? Isn't this law and order also being managed? Meng Xiang continued to ask Rat Er.

"A few people who grabbed porridge have been caught, but there are many people in this stream, there is no specific placement, and they can't eat enough, so I'm afraid that there will be more problems in the future." Zhou Bai answered again.

Meng Xiang was silent.

Everyone has food and a job, this is what Meng Xiang boasted about at the beginning. But when it comes to implementation, there are a lot of problems, and it can't be straightened out in a while.

"I have made a preliminary check of the local economic situation, and I have come here to report to the general." Zhou Bai spoke first.

"Oh? Mr. Zhou said it freely! ”

"A man does not stand without a name! Since the general wants to manage, he must first be justified. At this time, Han Fuyu was detained, and the name of chairman of Shandong was temporarily taken over by Shen Honglie, but we also need to have political axe institutions around our territory that can convince the people. It is also inappropriate to always be in military control. You need to combine the two, and it's good to have loose and loose! Zhou Bai came up and said directly, he has always been disgusted with military involvement in politics, and he is very repulsive to military management.

Meng Xiang nodded slightly, the people have always paid attention to fame, especially for the common people, and the banner of the government is still very effective.

Seeing Meng Xiang nodding, Zhou Bai said with a smile on his face for a while: "According to the area under our jurisdiction now, the administrative region can be readjusted. He glanced at Meng Xiang, who was listening carefully, and continued, "It can be divided into two cities and five counties. ”

"Which two cities and five counties?" Meng Xiang asked very cooperatively.

"The two cities can be divided into Jinan City and Qidu City, and there are five counties: Zhangqiu, Boshan, Boxing, Qingzhou and Shouguang." Zhou Bai took out the map and explained all the way, "There are too few officials now, so we can only manage them in a big way, slowly increase the number of people, and run the place." ”

"Aren't we going to add another area, Laiwu!" Meng Xiang heard him talk about the administrative area, and said with a smile in his heart. He had just arranged for someone to prepare to escort the base car to Laiwu for settlement.

During this period of time, the wind was very tight, and the coastline had been blocked by devils, and even foreign ships were keeping an eye on it. At this time, it is difficult to send the huge base out, and even if you put up the signboard of a foreign trading house, you may face the surveillance of the devil warship, or even the detection. Several British and French ships have already been routinely inspected with the devils, but the British and French authorities have not reacted to this in the slightest.

As a last resort, Meng Xiang prepared to send the base car that had just been produced to Laiwu. Han Fuyu has been arrested, and the future is not good. The devil was stationed in Tai'an, and there was no movement for the time being. At this time, only the 81st grade division of the exhibition hall in Laiwu was trapped there. So, Meng Xiang unconsciously set his eyes on Laiwu.

Laiwu is mountainous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. In later generations, there was a Laigang there, and there were rich iron ore and coal resources nearby. It is conducive to the placement of sub-bases. The sub-base is set up there, which is arranged in a triangle with the Jinan sub-base and the main base, and the distance between them is about 100 kilometers. Directly protects the south side of the main base. And it's closer to Xuzhou.

"Hmmm! Good! Laiwu has iron and coal since ancient times, and it can be planned well. A city will also be set up temporarily, so that another Yiyuan County will be added. Zhou Bai looked at the scope of Meng Xiang's gesture and immediately reacted.

"If the administrative region is certain, it is necessary to seize the time to send people to manage it, and we can take advantage of the winter leisure season to start with the construction of water conservancy, so as to prepare for spring plowing in the coming year and strive for a bumper harvest of summer grain, so as to solve the problem of food shortage." Zhou Bai said cautiously.

Han Fuyu has been in politics for many years and is not bad for local management. Water conservancy facilities can be used with minor modifications. It's just that the summer grain harvest is bumper, and the grain on this land may not be enough.

When Meng Xiang saw his face, he knew that he was worried. also nodded solemnly and said, "The food problem, I will find a way to solve part of it." ”

"Water conservancy facilities can be used in the form of relief workers, so that some of the displaced people can be resettled." Zhou Baidao.

Meng Xiang's heart moved, and said: "Not only to repair water conservancy, but also to overhaul water conservancy and build reservoirs." In addition, the roads in various places also need to be overhauled, and the roads are smooth, so that it is convenient for circulation and exchange, and it is also convenient for management. By building more public facilities, we can resettle a large number of people and provide them with more employment opportunities. ”

"You're going to implement Roosevelt's New Deal!" Zhou Bai smiled slightly.

"Sort of!" Meng Xiang only remembered some of the practices of later generations, and at the same time remembered that the Americans were doing this two years ago, building reservoirs, building buildings, building roads and bridges, and the Golden Gate Bridge with the surname of the previous year had just been completed.

"It's a good idea, but it requires a lot of financial support!" Zhou Bai frowned slightly and said, "I also want to remind you that the fiat currency is a little uncirculating, so you should pay attention to it in advance." ”

Meng Xiang knew that the fiat currency was going to depreciate, and the money in the account could be exchanged for other currencies as soon as possible. He thought of the set of plates he had seized from Nanjing, and asked, "Can we issue our own currency?" ”

He didn't know about this era, anyway, it would definitely not be possible in the future generations, but at this time he seemed to remember a lot of various currencies.

Zhou Bai shook his head and smiled: "Since the conclusion of fiat currency in 33 years, the currency issued in various places has been gradually withdrawn. The country has a unified currency, which is a blessing for the people! He didn't say it directly, but he rolled out the people's big hats.

As soon as Meng Xiang heard it, he knew that it was even worse to issue fiat currency, which would only make the currency market more chaotic, and it was the people who suffered. If this move is tantamount to the counterfeit money tactics later implemented by the devils.

"However, there are three ways to ease the financial strain!" Zhou Bai hesitated, but still said that he had never suggested this before, because he was afraid of disrupting the domestic financial order.

"Which three?" Meng Xiang said with interest.

"One is to make metal currency, silver dollars, copper dollars. Earn spreads. Zhou Bai first proposed this one, relatively speaking, the impact of metal currency on the financial market is smaller, after all, there is its value, but there is more of the same to make the financial market collapse, their actual value is always much lower than the face value.

Meng Xiang nodded, Han Fuyu had silver-making equipment, and he left a lot of them in a hurry, plus the newly purchased ones, which could issue a complete set of metal currencies in case of war. In times of war, the people recognize real money.

"The second is the issuance of war bonds. Most of this is managed by the central government, and it depends on whether it can transfer some of it and issue local bonds by itself. Zhou Bai said. In fact, the central government is not very strict at this time. It's just that Zhou Bai doesn't know the strength of the vanguard army, if a large number of bonds are issued, and in the end they are not recycled, and they become blank sheets of paper, wouldn't it hurt people? But after an investigation, Zhou Bai was a little confident in issuing bonds.

"Not bad!"

"The third is the issuance of military stamps." Zhou Bai hesitated for a moment and said the third point.

"Military tickets?" When Meng Xiang heard it, he suddenly thought of the devil's military ticket.
