Chapter 1009: Exploration
On the outskirts of Havana, Zhou Qingfeng took Mugabe to visit and left. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Deng Chengwen, minister of agriculture, who accompanied the visit, sighed on the spot, saying that the Ministry of Agriculture, as the largest ministry with more than 100,000 people, had been hit the hardest since the regiment commander carried out the rectification campaign six months ago.
Zhou Qingfeng told Mugabe that more than 300 people had been shot and killed, and more than 1,000 people had been sentenced to hard labor in re-education through labor, and that more than 10 times as many people had actually been punished as a result of the rectification campaign. More than 100,000 people in the Ministry of Agriculture were brutally cleared of one-third of their useless labor, and many of them wept and wailed and died.
Considering how powerful the United States is, with countless Hispanic and African-American unemployed people at the bottom, the problem of the Aurora Army will only get worse. Those who have no skills and are not diligent and only complain are classified as inferior, and these people will either die or become sluggish heads behind the fence outside the city.
"It's good to have a guaranteed production to every household, but the huge pressure is forcing us to further reform. Both yield and efficiency must be significantly improved. "Deng Chengwen, as the minister, is extremely familiar with the agricultural production of the legion in the past six months.
"How else are you going to reform?" Deng Chengwen stood beside a thin and short old man, and his feelings about the greenhouses on the outskirts of the city farm were mixed, both envious and helpless. The old man, Dave, was a business representative from the Enclave, or a Jew.
When they first learned that the Aurora Legion had built a greenhouse and that it was producing a large number of them, the Enclave was deeply shocked and came up with many plans. Some people want to take it for themselves after they are captured, some people want to coerce and lure them to ask for products, and some people want to sell low and buy high to make profits.
Mr. Dave's words made the Enclave's top brass set the policy of commercial control - who among you would like to take control of a vegetable field yourself?
The relationship between the Enclave and the Aurora Legion was extremely bad, with neither side trusting the other. But because of the need to eat fresh vegetables and meat, the relationship between the two neighbors was thawed.
At this moment, Mr. Dave watched baskets of tomatoes and cabbage picked out of the greenhouse, grabbed them casually, wiped them with his hands, and took a bite. The sweet and sour tomatoes are refreshing and pleasant, and he praises, "It's actually pretty good." ”
yes, that's good!
In order to meet the rapidly expanding population of one million, and to export overseas in exchange for valuable industrial products, the agriculture department of the Aurora Legion has been working hard. In front of us, more than 30,000 greenhouses produce one or two thousand tons of fresh vegetables and more ...... and maggot powder every day. This is already a remarkable achievement.
The busy farm consumed more than 100,000 laborers, and also allowed tens of thousands of small farmers to obtain a lot of income, which provided a bargaining chip for the stable market and increased the strength of the legion. But its rapid development has made many people wonder, for example, where does the feed come from for pigs?
Generally, corn is used to raise pigs, but now people don't have corn to eat, how can there be more corn to raise pigs? The explanation given by the Aurora Regiment was that it had found the Cuban government's grain depot and had hoarded huge quantities of aged grain in preparation for World War III.
However, ......, this explanation is not convincing.
This is a question that plagues many people who are trying to follow the same path, such as Mr. Dave in front of him. Tempted by the prospect of money, technicians, and even valuable industrial goods, he was able to enter the Legion's farm and try to find out.
Zhou Qingfeng only opened a half-day visit after receiving a large amount of gold, more than 1,000 agricultural experts, and several tons of special lubricating oil for ships from the other party. But in the past half a day, Mr. Dave was even more puzzled - this farm is in the dirt, and there is nothing to see.
"How are you going to reform?" Dave asked. In his opinion, the current Legion Farm is already a model model, as long as the most basic feed source link in the supply chain is solved, it can be promoted to the outside world. But this seemingly ordinary part is the most secretive.
The Brotherhood of Steel and the Enclave also have huge food stocks, but they know the difficulties of this because they have them. Against the backdrop of drought and famine, they were reluctant to use aged grain to raise pigs.
Deng Chengwen didn't talk about this at all, as a senior member of the legion, he was very wise not to consider the secrets that even the Big Five kept silent.
"Our new farm in the Bahamas has started construction and is expected to provide another 50,000 jobs and double the current vegetable production," said the Minister of Agriculture. ”
"Well...... it's a good thing to increase production, and we're willing to import more." Dave won't say that in order to snatch the share of the Aurora Army's agricultural exports, many forces are about to fight. There are many people who are skeptical of the farm, but no one can do without it now.
"Our current production model of smallholder farmers is too labor-intensive, households cannot cooperate with each other, and the use of production tools is too inefficient.
Now that the temperature is rising, we can completely carry out open-air planting and breeding, and we can use large agricultural machinery, but this requires more professional technicians and pesticides and fertilizers. ”
This is Minister Deng's long-term plan, he looked at Dave from the Enclave with a smile and said: "We are still in short supply of agricultural machinery, pesticides, and fertilizers, and it can even be said that we are blank.
And we know that the Enclave's Texas agriculture and animal husbandry are very developed, and we hope to get more help! ”
Hearing this, Mr. Dave was very upset. Zhou Qingfeng recently went on an expedition to Canada and looted more than 100,000 scientific research and technical personnel from two provinces. These people were forced to serve the Legion for their livelihoods, and now they were forced to devote themselves to a variety of extremely important positions.
Such a large group of professionals is even the Enclave's eyes!
With the participation of such a group of people, Zhou Qingfeng established more than a dozen schools and research institutes in one go, specifically pondering how to develop productivity in the current wasteland environment. For example, medical colleges, agricultural colleges, engineering colleges and other institutions are among them.
Among them, the agricultural college responsible for the production of food is the top priority, which makes the Enclave's idea of getting stuck in agricultural science and technology completely failed, and even sent a group of his own agricultural technicians over, hoping to crack Victor. The mystery of Hugo's agricultural development.
But now it seems that the mystery is still a mystery!
"Cuba does not produce enough food, but sugar is grown very conveniently, and we intend to resume production in this area. Cuba has a lot of expertise and processing plants left over from the past, which has left us with great convenience. In addition, we ...... in tobacco, rice, coffee and so on. ”
Listening to Deng Chengwen keep talking about the future development of agriculture, Mr. Dave was extremely irritable. He came to Cuba this time to find out the root cause of the agricultural development of the Aurora Legion, but now it seems that people are not willing to disclose it at all, and they are secretive.
And Deng Chengwen looked at the little Jewish old man next to him with a look of wanting to be angry, but he was extremely proud in his heart, "As long as we take care of agriculture and food, no matter how many refugees can swallow it, we will not be afraid of anyone in the future!" ”
