Although the majority did not meet the demands, in the end, the distribution plan was unanimously approved.

In the end, everyone was completely persuaded to agree to put the main force of labor into agriculture and animal husbandry, and the main reason was that Wang and Zhu threw out a series of ambitious agricultural and animal husbandry development plans at the meeting.

Lao Wang and Lao Zhu emphatically said: As the so-called good steel blade, after we have obtained a relatively sufficient labor force, agriculture and animal husbandry will be ready to make some big moves.

First of all, Wang and Zhu put forward plans to double the planting area of grain and various cash crops, and to develop the Saifu Island pasture on the other side of Mornington Island.

The former is a plan that Wang has always been thinking about, especially when Wang expressed his support for the Huotang Club's cigarette production plan, a group of young people who had planned to vote against or abstain from voting on this labor distribution plan immediately became enthusiastic supporters.

A group of young people in the Huotang Club have been thinking about the tobacco seeds in the cave, hoping that Master Wang can scatter these seeds into the ground to blossom and bear fruit and grow tobacco leaves, and the sooner the better.

However, Lao Wang has been hesitating, and the apparent reason is that there is a shortage of labor, insufficient land reclamation and other unfavorable factors, but those who know the situation understand that it is mainly because there are differences of opinion within the Supreme Executive Council on whether tobacco is cultivated or not.

Later, however, it seems that the Executive Committee suddenly agreed again.

According to Zhu Beiguo, who was familiar with some of the facts, it was Wang Gong who communicated with Sun Lao and his cadres, and the ladies agreed to the cigarette development strategy of the Huotang Club on the condition that the Supreme Executive Committee prompted the plenary assembly to pass the Federal Marriage Act and set up a ladies-led Education and Examination Committee......

The proposal to develop the tobacco industry was formally decided at the plenary meeting after the return of the fleet.

At the meeting, first of all, Ren Ke formally put forward a series of proposals for the development of the tobacco industry on behalf of the Huotang Club.

In order to make these suggestions pass, Ren Ke made a long speech on behalf of the Huotang Club, simply put, the Huotang Club believes that we have the advantage of developing the tobacco economy, and the historical trend of global tobacco popularization is also unstoppable, of course, by the way, I also said that the specific life problems of many men in front of ---- supermarket have long been left with a few cigarettes, I implore you to consider, and you should also produce some to solve the needs of your personal life, right?

For ladies, this is a breakthrough, after all, there are really a lot of smokers in that group of boys, as someone said, in this world where there are no women, no computers, no Internet, and finally no cigarettes, life is really sad.

Obviously, this statement makes many opponents of cigarette production feel that they have nothing to say, and it is difficult to refute it if you think about it carefully, so you can't simply and rudely say that you should quit smoking.

As a result, this proposal to immediately plant tobacco leaves on Lao Wang's experimental farm was approved by a clear majority of votes! And the other half voted not against, but abstained.

This series of events was recorded in detail in Zhu Beiguo's diary for no other reason - Zhu Beiguo used his historical mind to be keenly aware that the impact of this "behind-the-scenes transaction" on future generations must be extremely far-reaching.

Yes, on a sunny afternoon, a simple discussion and a speech by a group of people made a landmark historical event.

Because, whether it was the decision to develop the tobacco business, the establishment of the Education and Examination Commission, and the subsequent passage of the Federal Marriage Compensation Act, it turned out to be the beginning of a series of major historical events. Of course, that's another story.

In short, Lao Wang's huge plan to grow cash crops is very exciting, especially the experimental cultivation of various spices.

Everyone agreed that it was worth investing more labor in spices, especially young people who had traveled to sea, and now fully understood how important and promising Wang's plan for the production of "five-spice powder" was, not only a plan that would drive Pimont crazy, but also a plan that could turn the world trade pattern upside down.

In the past, there was no labor, and all this could only be done on paper, but now, at last, it is possible to do this great thing, and the history of the new world remembers this day, from this day, the cultivation of spices officially entered the implementation stage, and as a result, the pattern of world trade will change radically in ten years.

The next topic is chocolate, which is as important as cigarettes and spices.

The topic then extended to the construction of natural pastures in Saifu Island, where chocolate production requires not only cocoa butter and cane sugar, but also milk, which involves animal husbandry.

The Saifu Island Natural Ranch Project was something that Lao Zhu had planned before the crossing, and everyone had also gone to the island to conduct field surveys at that time.

After all, expanding the scale of dairy sheep breeding is not only directly related to the production of chocolate, but also related to the current dining table, as well as a long industrial chain that extends from it - the deep processing of dairy products.

Such an important basic raw material certainly deserves a large-scale investment, including labor.

There is another unquestionable reason why Wang and Zhu put forward this big plan - the population has increased significantly, and the issue of food should be put in the first place.

In addition to the small amount of labor support received by Mr. Zhao and their chemical team because of the factories related to building materials and sugar refining, Quan Zhenhai Huali and Boss Luo were very frustrated to find that their industrial projects may have to rely on their own coolies to slowly climb forward.

But in any case, the results of the afternoon discussion were still fruitful, and the dust washing dinner on the evening of the fleet's return voyage was also the most "luxurious" one since the crossing, and the protagonists on the table were not big fish and meat, but a variety of fresh fruits, vegetables and dairy products, the most popular were vegetables and fruits, such as carrots, tomatoes, white radish, cherries, white sweet potatoes, mushrooms, etc., and of course, fresh milk, goat's milk and yogurt, which were the new achievements of Lao Wang's farm and Lao Zhu's ranch in recent months.

Speaking of the food on the ship, the nutrition is actually very good, but one is the lack of fresh meat, and the other is the lack of fresh fruits and vegetables.

In the past two months, except for the tropical fruits that only lasted for less than ten days, everyone did not eat many fresh ingredients openly, so a group of men who came back from the sea completely ignored the appearance of eating at the table, and squeaked and gnawed on the cleanly washed raw carrots, ate tomatoes with juice, and drank fresh milk and yogurt---- and it was refrigerated!

The people who stayed at home at the dinner table smiled at this group of people, and the food was so beautiful that it was unbearable to see, and it became a topic of conversation for many days in the Red Mansion.

As a result, Huang Hai, Qiao Xiaomu, Gui Xianning, and other people from the Huotang Club, who originally wanted to take advantage of this occasion to continue to discuss work issues, found that the people they spoke to were now completely immersed in food, and they had no time to speak by themselves, so they had to shut up and silently watch these gluttons eat and drink.

In fact, everyone else in the audience is like this, but a few girls have red eyes, judging from their husbands' eating appearances, they already have a general understanding of their hard work on this voyage, and they are very distressed.

As a result, everyone's dinner was quite quiet, and there was no imaginary lively scene at all, but the people who came back from the sea still felt very warm in their hearts, and it could be seen that the family had really prepared this dinner carefully.

However, the children's table was as lively as ever, because of the addition of Sylvie, who took out the big sister's posture and instructed the two boys to arrange the dishes, and then taught Sylvi to use chopsticks.

Although Sylvie's Chinese is very rudimentary, children are children, and children's communication is often just a good communication with body language, eyes and tone of voice, so dinner is not over yet, Sylvie can already use chopsticks to pick up vegetables, this teaching achievement makes adults very surprised.
