In this time and space, the price increase of agricultural products is also amazing, although it has not reached the point of anger and resentment, but it does still make ordinary people feel that the money is not enough to 'spend'. It stands to reason that the wholesale price of agricultural products has not risen too much, so why did the price of 'meat' for ordinary people rise more than four times compared to 2000?

The answer, of course, is a question of the middle link!

Too many hands change hands!

For example, farmers and large vegetable farmers sell a pound of cabbage to the consignee for 6 'cents', and the harvester transfers it to the big agent for 1.2 'cents', and the big agent store is a big bully, and sells it to a small agent for 1 yuan 8, and the small agent earns less, and sells it to the vegetable stall for 2 yuan 1, and the vegetable stall is darker, doubled, and finally sold to the consumer for 4 yuan 2.

There are too many intermediate processes, which are the reason for the high prices of agricultural products, but what are the intermediate processes involved? First, once the sale is transferred, the tax is collected once; second, the road and bridge tolls, energy costs, and drivers' salaries; and third, the price hike.

Grain and vegetable baskets are really related to the national economy and people's livelihood, and other LY mobile phones, electromagnetic needles, computers, and electric vehicles can be dispensed without, but they must not be missing the basic, life-saving grains and vegetables.

The people of Beijing are very nostalgic for the days when cabbage cost 5 cents a pound, and the income of 200 yuan a month could buy 4,000 pounds; now the cabbage is four yuan a pound, but the monthly income can only buy 2,000 pounds, why is this?

The root cause is the increase in industrial productivity!

When the monthly income is 200 yuan, the price of a Santana is 250,000 yuan, and when the monthly salary is 8,000 yuan, Santana's gasoline cars have no to sell, and the Volkswagen and Lanyin cars with better quality and cooler models are still only sold for about 250,000 yuan.

Industrial products are cheaper, and agricultural products related to land are expensive!

Therefore, the old hooligan asked the investment department of Lanyin Electronics to focus on land-related resources and products as much as possible.

How can we reduce the prices of agricultural products? There are certainly ways to do this, but at a time when China's urbanization has not yet reached a certain level and has not exceeded 90 percent, opening up this technology for lowering the prices of agricultural products will lead to a further reduction in peasants' incomes, which is not what the state expects.

This is why the Yankees' agricultural products are cheaper than those in China, because their agricultural population is small, large-scale production has been realized, and even the machinery used to grow cabbage is used, and another big reason is that their per capita arable land is more than that of China.

But in fact, in China now, there are few people who really make money by farming!

The vast majority of farmers grow food and vegetables, and they are self-sufficient.

At the beginning of 2014, Lanyin Biotech launched several vegetable seeds that have been experimenting for many years, and seeds that can produce high yields.

Of course, it still comes from sunlight, water, and 'fertilizer', and it must follow the law of conservation of quality, that is, although high-yielding and safe vegetable varieties have been developed through biotechnology, in the process of planting, it is necessary to water the vegetables more water and apply more chemical 'fertilizer'. Otherwise, if you grow normally, the growth will be slow, and when you grow up, the nutrients in the land will be consumed more.

This is the truth, Huaxia wants to transform the desert and Mars, but the desert area lacks water and fertilizer. What should we do? Huaxia is preparing to build a super water conservancy project. What about chemical fertilizer? If we want to transform the desert, we must also prepare for chemical fertilizer. How do you prepare? Do you rely on a large helicopter to spray chemical 'fertilizer' on the desert? Of course not, how can there be such a luxurious technology for transforming the desert? You must know that in this time and space, chemical 'fertilizer' is not cheap!

It depends on a new type of grass, a plant that can be produced in desert areas, can produce quickly, and can also die quickly. In this way, as long as one or two decades have passed, the land that was originally lacking nutrients has a layer of "fertilizer" that is not thin, and the desert has been transformed to be somewhat objective After that, you can plant a variety of plants, so that there are more plants, and there are rivers, and it is easier for the desert to thunder and rain, and the nitrogen 'fertilizer' produced in the air falls down by the action of thunder and lightning, moistening the land, so that in 50 years, the ecological circle of the desert area may be established.

As for the transformation of Mars, it will take longer, and the longer it takes, the more stable the ecosystem will be.

For example, in this time and space, a few years ago, some large international papermaking companies planted fast-producing eucalyptus trees in the south of China, and they could become mature in two or three years. This efficiency is good, but it brings a lot of nutrients and water loss to the land in the mountains, where does the loss go? Of course, it is sucked into the "body" by the eucalyptus.

....

Although Lanyin Biology promotes genetically modified vegetable varieties, but Mr. Huaxia Li himself does not eat them, he is not a saint, he knows that although genetically modified vegetables are safe, but people always have a psychological factor at work, thinking that the vegetables raised by nature are better than the genetically modified ones cultivated by artificiality. Just like the natural beauty of the 'woman' makes people feel better than the plastic surgery, the natural 'breast' device makes the man more excited...

In fact, there are more genetically modified vegetables in them, but ordinary people don't know about them.

It's almost the New Year, the children are on vacation, and Xiao Menglai brought back a certificate of merit to his father for the first time, the certificate of "three good students"!

Not to mention, the old rascal is really happy, he promised the 'girl' that he would reward her, what would he reward? Of course, it was the New Year's money!

I'm in the fifth grade of elementary school, so I can save up for the New Year!

....

The high-yield vegetable varieties launched by Lanyin Biotech are said to be very popular with urban wage earners, why?

On the Internet, there are posts about the use of 'flower' pots to grow this vegetable at home, and it is said that if you put more than 20 "'flower' pots" on the balcony, you don't usually need to go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables.

Of course, this is kung fu work, and the average housewife can't do it, but it is true that more and more city dwellers grow vegetables at home, in the yard on the first floor, or on the roof. What about the chengguan, the chengguan can't control people's homes!

"You can't give people to the moon, and the people can't afford to eat vegetables!" This argument was propagated in January 2014, before the Lunar New Year, and it is clear that the hope of the new session is to make some achievements in people's livelihood.

Sure enough, under this argument, the expressway implemented a one-month free passage of agricultural products, fish, meat, seafood, chicken, eggs and other products to reduce the cost of selling these products during the Lunar New Year.

The Huhai branch of the Lanyin Charity Foundation, which is the branch where Lin Xiaojing is the director, has made another special move: a birthday for sanitation workers.

Lin Xiaojing personally participated, led several employees, and gave a 1,000 yuan down jacket and 8,000 yuan birthday "festival fee" to a 50-year-old sanitation aunt for her birthday, and at the same time, each of the 20 colleagues of the sanitation aunt also received 4,000 yuan.

Who knows, in less than three days, it was reported that the "festival fee" obtained by these sanitation workers was handed over, and the answer given by the superior department 'door' was: to divide it equally!

That is, nearly 60 sanitation workers in this sub-district office, several leaders divide it equally!

Even the down jacket of the aunt who celebrated her birthday was "handed in"!

As soon as this news came out, the public was in an uproar, and even netizens in overseas countries also spoke at the forum in China because of the translation function of intelligent life.

Some said: Oh, in our country, every sanitation worker can take the leader to court, and the leader has to step down...

Some Chinese people said: It's understandable to divide equally, but the down jacket of the sanitation aunt doesn't have to be handed in, right? You know, this is her birthday gift! It's really chilling...

Some Chinese netizens also said: If a billionaire gives a big red envelope to a beggar on the street, will the big brothers of the chengguan also have to divide it equally? Because without the permission of the big brother of the chengguan, the beggars are not allowed to beg in certain sections.

....

Disadvantaged groups and people's livelihood are said to be the focus of this five-year plan.

Technology is great, but great technology also requires the people to be willing to accept it! Genetically modified crops can effectively increase yields and solve the problem of food crisis and vegetable basket, but many people resist. In this way, it is necessary for the government to open a big propaganda machine to publicize the safety and 'sex' of genetically modified crops!

....

Huhai Municipal Government has "vacated" 40 acres of land in Lujiazui, Pudong, and the price of one mu is as high as 500 million yuan.

Why is the price so high? Of course, I "bought" a few buildings that were more than 20 years old and were less than 20 floors, let the units inside move, and then "blast out" and "vacate" the land to build skyscrapers for Mr. Huaxia Li.

There are already three skyscrapers over 400 meters in Lujiazui, and these four 666-meter buildings can be used as another landmark in Lujiazui.

....

In order to find a safer place for his gold, Mr. Huaxia Li gave Lanyin Investment a task in mid-January 2014: to take a good look and buy another piece of land in Xiangjiang, a piece of land that can be repaired 100 meters underground, and then we need to change the more than 1,500 tons of gold currently stored in the Standard Chartered Bank building to a safe place.

Wang Zixuan said: 100 meters underground, anti-nuclear bomb bunker?

The old rascal said: "Right, the three holes of the cunning rabbit, in the future, our gold can not be put in the same place, the skyscraper in Shanghai, the underground part must also be repaired to 150 meters, not shallower than the 80-meter foundation of the Global Center. At that time, some of our gold and silver will be deposited here...

The price of an ounce of silver, in this time and space, also broke through $80, more than double the $30 in 2010 in Huaxia Li's previous life.

Precious metals are hard currency at all times, and the bank's numbers can't give Huaxia Li much security. After more than ten years of accumulation, he has come to understand this more and more: without the hard currencies of gold and silver, his business empire would be missing a fulcrum.

Pifu is not guilty of his crimes, this is true, but Huaxia Li is not a Pifu now, he needs to protect his "'jade' bi".

....

What will you send during the Chinese New Year this year? Huaxia Li has long been ready to send out gold coins!

What kind of gold coin? Of course, it is the latest gold coin commissioned by Standard Chartered Bank and the "door" of the Hong Kong Mint Department, a gold coin weighing 1 kilogram, with a round shape, a diameter of 90 mm, and a "color" of 24k.

The design of the gold coin is still a bauhinia 'flower' on one side, and on the other side is a small sapphire on the upper body color 'color' pattern, symbolizing intelligent life.

It took 5,000 pieces to make and 5 tons of gold, each numbered, which was not quite the same as the last 1-ounce gold coin. Huaxia Li took out 500 pieces and sold them to major jewelry stores in Xiangjiang, and about 500 pieces were given as "New Year gifts" to politicians, celebrities and Lan Yin executives in Xiangjiang in mainland China. Some celebrities with good connections, such as Master Jin, Master Huang, Shao Liushu, Li Chaoren, etc., received six gold coins with consecutive numbers.

Several retired leaders also received gold coins from Zhong Yuxiu and Huang Yinghong, and they were also 6 pieces, but the numbers were a little more special...

Retired, there is no such thing as receiving bribes, and Huaxia Li does not give New Year's gifts every year, and Huaxia Li's gifts are not taken for nothing.

Some of these dignitaries or celebrities will also "give back", for example, Master Jin gave back a set of the latest version of "The Complete Works of Jin Yong", each with his signature and "private" seal, and Li Chaoren gave back a pair of beautiful porcelain.

Although the value may not match the value of 6 gold coins, the gift between characters at this level is about meaning!

The price of an ounce of gold reached 3,200 US dollars, and the value of such a gold coin is worth 100,000 US dollars, and 6 pieces are 3.6 million yuan, excluding the design and manufacturing costs of gold coins.

The remaining 4,000 pieces were shipped to the mansion in Shanghai.

On the 23rd of the lunar month, Lao Zhang, who had lived in two mansions in Huaxia Li for more than half a year, was ready to return to the capital, no matter what, the New Year, there were children and 'daughters', and they couldn't celebrate the New Year in other people's homes, and the old rascal also gave him 66 gold coins to take home.

Lao Zhang smiled: "Fortunately, I am not in office, otherwise, such a big bribe can be directly guillotined!"

....

It is easier to collect gold nuggets by making them into gold coins, and it looks better to give gold coins than gold bars, especially if they are commemorative gold coins!

Sure enough, the artificial intelligence gold coins commissioned by Mr. Huaxia Li were reported by the news media, and many mainland people flocked to Xiangjiang, only to find that the gold coins in the jewelry store had long been swept away by the people of Xiangjiang.

The cost price is 100,000 US dollars, and the price is 120,000 US dollars, and many wealthy Xiangjiang people bought it without blinking an eye.

I'm ready to go back to Xijing for the New Year, and before I go back, of course, the old rascal has to appease a few lovers in Shanghai.

100 gold coins were brought to each person. For example, when I went to MM's house, this girl opened the 'door' and saw that he was carrying a small, but heavy-looking leather bag, and the old rascal smiled: "Take it!"

The girl happily took the bag, but found that the old rascal would not let go, and she smiled, "What?"

The old rascal knew that if he let go, the bag would definitely have to be smashed on the ground, and the gold coin box inside would be smashed, so he carried it himself.

When he came to the bedroom, put the bag on the 'bed', and found that a piece of the 'bed' was crushed, the old rascal opened the bag with a smile, took out a piece of gold coins in a transparent plastic box, and said: "No, the blue treasure gold coins that are currently very popular in Xiangjiang." ”

After a while, the girl finished counting and said happily: "I like gold the most!"

Not only does she like it, but even Zhang Baoxiu, who now runs a jewelry store, also likes it, she said: "Husband, in our branch in Xiangjiang, the quota of 100 pieces was snapped up on the first day, and Brother Ma bought 50 pieces himself!"

The old rascal smiled: "It seems that the people of Xiangjiang complained that there was no goods, it turned out that you opened a jewelry store and bought it yourself?"

Zhang Baoxiu laughed and said: "It's not all, we released 20 pieces! But there are 20 kilograms, how can we sell 20 kilograms of gold in a day." ”

The 'girl' Li Xiu'er is 5 years old, and when she saw her godfather coming, she said, "Godfather, why hasn't my father come home yet?"

When the old rascal suddenly heard this, he didn't feel good in his heart. Zhang Baoxiu also sighed: "Xiu'er is much more sensible, and she knows that her father is closer than her godfather!"

The old rascal hugged the 'girl' and kissed it, and when he saw that the 'girl' still moved his little face away, the old rascal said happily: "What's the matter, godfather kisses you, you don't want to?"

Zhang Baoxiu said with a smile: "I miss my father, I haven't been on vacation for the past few days, and I'm not too happy, saying that I haven't seen my father for a long time." ”

The old rascal smiled: "That's okay, Baoxiu, I'm leaving!"

After speaking, he stood up and squeezed his eyes at Baoxiu: "I think Xiu'er's father will be back in a while." ”

Zhang Baoxiu also stood up and said with a smile: "Okay then, Xiu'er, let's send your godfather out of the 'door'!"

The old hooligan was in the car, changed into Li Zifei's appearance, then went to the supermarket, bought several gifts for the 'girl', and returned again.

Even Zhang Baoxiu's parents were moved by the old rascal doing this!

Because they think that the 'daughter' in law is a big man...

Sure enough, after Li Xiuer saw her father, she was so happy that she wanted to sit in her father's arms and didn't want to come down.

The old rascal laughed, "Baby, do you miss Daddy?"

"Yes!" Li Xiu'er replied, holding a Barbie doll in one hand.

Zhang's mother said: "On vacation, I ask many times every day, when will my father come back?"

....

Li Xiuer made the old rascal feel a little touched again: no one should give their children a happy childhood!

The Lanyin Charity Foundation criticized Lin Xiaojing for leading her employees to send money to sanitation workers, which violated two principles of the foundation: first, charity is not a show, and second, charity should be targeted at vulnerable groups.

In addition, although the working conditions of sanitation workers are hard, in China, they are not really a disadvantaged group, in Shanghai, although the salary of sanitation workers is not high, but there are nearly 3,000 yuan a month, which is much higher than many cities in China. With a salary of 3,000 yuan, in Shanghai, the place to live is definitely not very good, but if you use it to eat and drink, there are still 'meat' dishes every day.

The real disadvantaged groups are those who are lonely and widowed, orphans abandoned by their parents, people who are so poor that they are sick and dying, and people who are physically disabled and cannot take care of themselves!

Lanyin Charity Foundation does not need to put on a show, because it is really charitable, and the money that is 'spent' on charity every year can be said to exceed the appropriation of the 'door' of the Ministry of Civil Affairs of China, and the amount of capital reserves also exceeds it.

So some people ask:The annual expenditure of nearly 80 billion yuan as a pension and social welfare relief expenses;The annual sales of fucai are close to 150 billion yuan,The return rate is almost 49%,The 49% also have to support layers of fucai related personnel. In this way, the annual funding of the Ministry of Civil Affairs has not even reached 100 billion yuan. Why not increase financial allocations, why not reduce the cost of fucai related personnel?

In fact, it can't be compared like this, although the Lanyin Charity Foundation 'spent' more than 98 billion yuan last year, almost 100 billion, but a lot of this money is still used for education and scientific research, which is still different from the Ministry of Civil Affairs'.

But it also fully illustrates the need for the state to expand financial allocations and not just rely on non-governmental philanthropic activities.

But it also makes the people feel cold, for example, a few years ago, when Huaxia Li donated a huge amount of cash during several major domestic earthquakes and floods, it is said that most of the huge amount of cash donated by the local government was used as "financial special funds".

Since it is a "special financial fund", when the leaders want to embezzle, the risk is still very low, don't you see that a certain leader even dares to embezzle the money of the social security fund called the "high-voltage line"?

The social security fund was misappropriated, and the head was still panicked, always thinking about making it back, but the "financial special funds" were misappropriated, and don't think that this hole will be filled in the future.

Therefore, the local government has tasted the sweetness, and once it seems that the loss is not too great, it will also be publicized with great fanfare, and what kind of charity donation party will be held. Not to mention, when the Ministry of Civil Affairs allocated less than 100 million yuan, the charitable donations reached billions!

The leaders are very happy, and they think that today's rich and celebrities are really "big moneymen", how do you know that many of the leaders' "net worth" is more than several times richer than many hard-working little stars. The little stars gritted their teeth and donated 100,000 yuan for their image, and the leaders were eating and drinking spicy and thinking about how to "embezzle" the money.

This is a human society, everywhere is full of ugliness, people's hearts are not ancient, everyone looks at money, it is said, especially after Mr. Li of Huaxia created several great biotechnology, many leaders, including some politicians in overseas countries, a major task of life and work is to "make money" and earn "life money" in the future!

This is an era of material desires!
