Chapter 164: Quick Knife Cuts Through the Mess

The durian plantation of my husband's generation alone should have hundreds of thousands of acres, hundreds of square kilometers, which is so spectacular and fragrant. ”

Looking at the mature plantations all over the mountains, the forest warbler couldn't help but sigh.

Shalanova pointed to the east: "Over those mountains, to Bahrainkian, Dalam, and the boss's natural rubber plantation, cat poop coffee plantation, and cocoa plantation." ”

"Bahrain Kian and Dalam? Oh, I remember, it's the city across the street from my great-mother's sand. Lin Ying sighed, "When I looked at the map, I didn't think that when I went out for a walk, I found that my husband's business spanned most of Sarawak." ”

The girls were still sighing, Gu Kun had already been informed, and personally took the car to greet him: "Yo, this is to get the degree certificate? It's all here, it's not too hot to stand outside, come in, there is air conditioning in the house." ”

Lin Ying immediately rushed over like a milk swallow, was rubbed, and then dragged Gu Kun into the house, and the other girls also followed.

Gu Kun wore a straw hat today, a hard thin linen plaid shirt, and big sunglasses, and his appearance did not look like a billionaire, but like an ordinary Mexican/Colombian community tycoon.

The reason why I dressed like this is also because it is so hot. From getting out of the car to walking back to the house, in just two minutes, Lin Ying was already sweating slightly.

The air-conditioning in the house is ample and the standard is standard in Lan Fang's home, but in the plantations on the outskirts of Sarawak, it is already considered a luxury.

Lin Ying blew the air conditioner for a while, and subconsciously noticed that something was wrong.

The level of development here is still very low, and before Gu Kun's people came, most of the local rural residents did not have air conditioning. It's not that they can't afford air conditioning, but it's that the expansion of the power grid in rural Sarawak is slow.

As long as most of your neighbors don't need such high-power civil power lines when the wires are pulled along the way, then the diameter of the power supply cable will be designed with low current carrying capacity to reduce costs.

In the semi-poor capital attention country, the most feared thing for individual rich people is to live in the middle of a bunch of poor neighbors. Because the capital pays attention to the country's power companies are very cost-conscious when laying capacity.

If you live among poor neighbors who can't afford air conditioning, you deserve to have no air conditioning. Living among poor neighbors who can't afford to use a mobile phone, you deserve to have a poor mobile phone reception.

If there is no one to share the cost of infrastructure, then there is no infrastructure. That's why the residential areas of these countries are very rich and poor, and the people who live in the slums move out with a little money.

In South Asian cities such as Mumbai and Kolkata, "a neighborhood with a house price of $10,000 can fall to $1,000 across the street."

It is difficult to imagine these difficulties for society to pay attention to the people of the country.

Later, many people on Douyin shared videos of electricians in South Asian countries repairing wires, and hundreds of wires on a pole were like a mess of honeycombs. Many domestic comments only saw that "the electricians in this kind of place are awesome, and they can recognize it in such a mess".

As everyone knows, this is all because everyone is afraid of being taken advantage of by their neighbors. The wire fee and the power required by each household in the same area are different, so the power company can only pull a thin one for each small piece, and you are willing to pay for a few millimeters of wire cross-section, and you will pull as much power as you want.

Originally, a thick wire in the mainland of China could be solved, and when it was about to enter the house, it became a direct dozens of hundreds of thin wires, and there was a lot of waste of repeated construction, and there was more duplication and redundancy of the electrician's manual labor.

Lim Ying is a native of East Malaysia, and although her family is from the capital city of Kuching, she is also well aware of the complex difficulties of electricity in nearby villages. In particular, the infrastructure of East Malaysia is much less developed than that of West Malaysia, and the plantations here cannot be compared with those durian producing areas around Penang.

Therefore, at this moment, just looking at the local rural plantation infrastructure all the way to the paving, and every household has enough capacity to use air conditioning, it seems that the infrastructure is still so neat and concise, and my heart is very shocking.

She somewhat understood why the Latin American countries had allowed the United Fruit Company of the Oceania to be colonized, and why it had developed to the point where the United Fruit Company could be so powerful that it could easily decide or depose the presidents of the 15 Latin American countries.

"Don't you need your own diesel engine here, and rely directly on the air conditioner used by the mains?" Lin Ying couldn't believe it, and after enjoying the cool for a while, she asked questions.

The original rich people in the local area, if they are in the countryside, also use air conditioners, but many because the city power is too complicated, the capacity is not enough to make their own diesel generators for emergency, anyway, Sarawak and Brunei have oil fields, and the local civilian diesel is very cheap.

Gu Kun replied as a matter of course: "That's necessary, I want to operate for a long time, and I don't come here to play, of course I have to build it well - after the construction is done, these lands will be mine in the future." ”

Lin Ying tentatively confirmed: "So, all those farmers and local immigrants who have planted for us can also use air conditioning?

Gu Kun: "Of course, you have to use it, and you have to charge it, but compared with the original local power company, the initial installation fee is at least half cheaper, and it can also be deducted from the mortgage from your future salary." Not only the initial installation fee for electricity, but also many other initial installation fees can be deducted, most of them are very happy, and those who are not happy can not be hired by our 'Lanfang Fruit Company'. ”

Gu Kun's future colonial plantation in Malaysia will be operated by the newly registered 'Lanfang Fruit Company'. Gu Kun and the Lanfang royal family are the only major shareholders of the company.

This kind of traditional industry does not need any advanced management of the organizational structure, and robots can manage it well, which is nothing more than hiring tens of thousands of contractors to grow fruits, and then purchase and sell them uniformly.

And the name of this company, Gu Kun is obviously vulgar on the surface, but secretly expects the company to become a country within a country like the notorious "United Fruit Company" in Latin America fifty years ago. (In the most rampant years of United Fruits, Dulles, the largest shareholder, was the secretary of state of Oceania, and the second largest shareholder was his younger brother Dulles Jr., the director of the CIA, so the presidents of Latin American countries could be abolished at will, and those who disobeyed immediately dispatched the army of Oceania to eliminate them.) )

Although Gu Kun has always been very disdainful of colonial dogs like United Fruits, he also has to admit that in terms of the efficiency of construction, allowing a company to take care of everything can indeed greatly accelerate local development and work for the well-being of the people as a whole.

Just like electric power construction, water conservancy construction, telecommunications, and railways, if we do not allow large-scale and forcible apportionment, no one will ever pay for many constructions.

In terms of cost, it is certainly much cheaper to force each local household to pay for "one-tenth of a cable with a cross-sectional area of 50 square millimeters" than for each person to pay for "the full price of a cable with a cross-sectional area of 5 square millimeters".

Elementary school students will calculate that the former scheme can save 9 times the cost of cable rubber and the labor cost of electrician laying.

Looking at the earth, this kind of thing can be done, or like a large-scale colonial company, most of the benefits will go to him after the construction is completed. Or, like Huaxia, the state pays for it. There is no way to go in a "free market game".

When Gu Kun pushed for construction here, it happened that the financial crisis needed to boost demand, and the locals had to endure it, so Gu Kun was given the opportunity to integrate comprehensively.

Now, the pain of apportionment has passed, and everyone has begun to think of Gu Kun's goodness, if there is no savior appearing, local farmers estimate that they may not be able to use air conditioning in 10 years, and they will often worry about tripping when the weather is high in 20 years.

Gu Kun pointed to the plantations scattered all over the mountains and the farmer's houses hidden between the plantations: "I have planted 200 square kilometers of Guadaquila durian, 80 square kilometers of cat poop coffee zoo reserve, 400 square kilometers of rubber plantations, and cocoa. At present, I have hired 4,000 contractors to help me plant, and each household manages an average of 50 acres.

There's no way, durian has to be planted on the slope, cat poop coffee is all the same as a zoo, there are big iron fences and trees to block together, we are engaged in a high-end route, and we can't leave the handle of 'cruelty cats' to the people of animal protection organizations.

Therefore, it is not possible to reduce manpower in the same way as the mechanized work in the plains. A family manages 50 acres, which is the limit, anyway, our things are expensive, the wool is out of the sheep, and the manpower is a little more expensive. Cat poop coffee that does not keep the civet in the cage is, of course, more expensive than the one in the cage, and those rich people who want to pretend to be forced will not buy it when the time comes. ”

One acre is equal to six acres of land in China, and anyone who has planted fruit trees in the countryside knows that it is tiring for a family to contract 300 acres of orchards. This is still the common number of children in Southeast Asia, and each family has a large population to be busy.

The management structure set by Gu Kun is basically similar to that of Boss Chu of Hongta who planted cloud smoke and even later planted oranges, which can be regarded as a boutique route. Although he had to buy all the output of his contractor at a lower flat price, after all, the company also paid a basic salary, which is now 500 yuan per household per month.

Farmers still have a basic salary for farming, which is definitely a benevolent government, and Gu Kun also saw that Boss Chu had a good effect on the performance system in later generations, so he did not hesitate to try. (When Boss Chu was released from prison in 04 to plant oranges, the basic salary for farmers was 600 yuan per month, RMB)

"But why do these durians ripen so quickly? You've only been here for two years, right? Durian trees don't grow so fast. Lin Ying still had some questions, so she asked casually while eating durian.

Gu Kun took a sip of fresh cat poop coffee: "Actually, these nearby mountains are ripe, less than 20 square kilometers, and the trees here, I originally picked a relatively large sapling and bought it at a high price to transplant it." Other areas are cultivated with small seedlings, and it will take at least 5 years to stabilize the fruit, that is, it can be shipped at full strength in 02.

But I'm not in a hurry, anyway, the vast majority of people in China can't afford to eat durian now. After 02 years, Chinese people can generally afford to eat durian, and I can supply it in large quantities. ”

Gu Kun was eating fruit and drinking coffee with his woman, and his mobile phone suddenly rang.

He picked it up casually, it turned out that it was Liang Jinsong, who hadn't contacted him for several months, and gave him a routine report of good news.

Liang Jinsong said on the phone that Gu Kun's real estate stocks in the Hong Kong stock market have finally been completely shipped, and he has now begun to run telecommunications network stocks, and he is also running very fast, and he has sold more than $2 billion worth of stocks in a week, and he has not even smashed the market down.

Liang Jinsong saw that the market was too good, and he was afraid that he would suffer a loss if he ran early, so he personally flew over to ask Gu Kun if he wanted to slow down.

"If you let you run, you will run, and if you make less money, it will be mine-why can't you hold your breath. I'm going to eat durian in Sibu today, come and tell me in person. ”
