Chapter 388: Weishan Lake encounters a food crisis

The completion and commissioning of the steel plant is like having a heart in the base.

The whole base area immediately came to life.

In the past, the five small industries referred to five kinds of industrial enterprises: small iron and steel, small coal mines, small machinery, small cement, and small chemical fertilizers. Now there is nothing but the fertilizer plant, everything else.

(500 words are deleted here, and groups can be added.) I don't know if it's the reason for this. )

With such a foundation, the heart of the base area became extremely powerful, and its power soon began to radiate in all directions.

Massive quantities of goods rushed in all directions like the Yellow River bursting its banks.

Its flagship products are enamel and cement.

This is what every household needs. At the same time, with this momentum, cigarette kerosene lamps and toilet paper glasses are also expanding more rapidly.

This has turned the center of Weishan Lake into a huge beehive, and I don't know how many people are working hard every day.

The second phase of the Weishan Lake Wharf has been completed and can now accommodate more ships to dock at the same time.

With the large number of high-quality steel provided by the steel mill, coupled with the world's unique machining technology, a variety of equipment suitable for this time and space has also been released.

For example, simple gantry cranes have been produced.

With the completion of the second phase of the wharf project, the power of the gantry crane was suddenly exerted. In the past, a bunch of people were busy with work for half a day, but now it only takes a few people to deal with it in ten minutes.

This greatly improves the efficiency of the terminal.

The development of Weishan Lake is advancing rapidly, but it is only a late return, and I can't recognize the appearance of Weishan Lake at all - this is still the former Weishan Lake, which is simply the city of the future!

Without the support of the Zhejia Army, Han Shizhong and Wu Song also had to fight hard.

The result was an unsurprising loss - when Tu didn't beat down.

However, the Heavenly Master Army was also unable to pursue and kill the imperial army. In this way, the front was stabilized for a while.

I couldn't save it to see if there was anything else, so I ran back by myself. As soon as I arrived at Weishan Lake, I was shocked.

However, he doesn't have time to see the scenery now, Meiluan brought him all the meeting minutes, he must learn and understand as soon as possible, otherwise he will not be able to keep up with the trend of the times.

Qin Mu really didn't have time to give a lecture to Zhekecun in person. He is now busy with a very important task - making a complete set of textile machinery.

Cotton will soon reach maturity and will need to be picked. At this time, the post-processing can't keep up, what's the use of him asking for a pile of cotton. Do you lie down in a pile of cotton and sleep?

Now that Qin Mu is wholeheartedly going to build a textile factory, he can't take care of the rest.

Years of education finally bear fruit at this time.

The senior officers of the Guards Regiment were already able to independently pick up the girders.

According to the spirit of Qin Mu, they selected qualified recruits from the Zhejia army, and at the same time mobilized some school-age youths from among the industrial workers to enlist in the army—the army could not all be from the Northwest Zhejia family.

The Folded Army, which was not selected, was transferred to the ranks of industrial workers on the spot.

They are also very satisfied, although they can't be soldiers anymore, but life in Weishan Lake is a completely different level of life.

This place is almost not supposed to exist in this world, it is a life like a god.

Tong Han, the old director of the former coal mine, was moved by Qin Mu, and he still went to do his old job - building a house.

Now with cement, with mechanized brick and tile factories, there is a completely new construction process.

Three- to five-story buildings are rising from the ground one after another.

These are all houses built for industrial workers!

Wu Lu never imagined that he would be able to live in such a house one day! Isn't this taller than the palace in Bianliang - he picked a top floor, five floors!

As the backbone of the machining center, Wulu was rewarded with priority to buy a house.

For this 60-square-meter house, Wu Lu took a loan for 20 years. But he didn't care, and he didn't understand the meaning of the loan. Anyway, my salary is high, and after removing the loan every month, the rest is enough for my family of three to live well.

But his woman was not satisfied. Why can't you buy a big house of 80 square meters? Duan Huisi feels that she is also qualified to buy a big house, she is the deputy director of the rattan factory, and the man is still the backbone of the machining center.

But she could only complain to Wu Lu in private, and she would never dare to say half a bad word about Qin Mu - then Wu Dalang would dare to beat her!

Now Wulu's family status has skyrocketed. People are like this, although economic status cannot completely determine family status, but economic strength does greatly increase Wulu's weight in the family - now Duan Huisi has to listen to him a little.

Now Wu Dalang's income is twice as high as Duan Huisi, and Duan Huisi has also lost Tong Han's special relationship at this time, just an ordinary cadre.

Tong Han is an old man, although Zhe Meiluan didn't say a word to him, but he knew that move, so he decisively cut off this leg.

Now Tong Han has obtained the qualification to buy the largest apartment because of his old qualifications and great contributions. He bought a 110-square-meter top-of-the-line apartment.

Weishan Lake quickly turned into a mythical world within a few hundred miles.

There are high-rise buildings, factories, and countless good things, as long as you go, you will have a job and a good life.

People are profit-seeking. The fame of Weishan Lake drifted to all directions with the goods, and more and more people flocked to Weishan Lake.

If Qin Mu does not refuse, he needs the population. Labor-intensive industries can swallow up a huge number of people, and there are not too many people.

But at this time, Zhe Meiluan had to think about more problems - not enough food!

With so many people gathered in such a small place, and then relying on the Zhejia family to buy food from Bianliang, it was really impossible to solve.

The people regard food as their heaven, and the food problem is a fundamental issue and the foundation. This matter must be thought about in advance, so Zhe Meiluan had to bring Qin Mu over and discuss a solution together.

Qin Mu was busy every day, and he really didn't realize this problem. Now that Mei Luan said, Qin Mu realized the seriousness of the problem.

Patronizing production, I forgot to send villains to hunt and harvest crops! I'm playing this game a little LOW - micro manipulation is not good.

Food, where are you going?

Now the prices of Bianliang are soaring, and when the prices are soaring, the fastest thing is grain.

The price of grain in Beijing is already five times that of last year. This makes it extremely difficult to buy in the Orifu. Even if you have money, you can't buy so much grain - the more the price of grain rises, the more reluctant the grain merchants are to sell!

It's so difficult to get grain from Bianliang. Ringo has done his best to operate, and now he can only barely keep the Weishan Lake Center running.

Zhe Meiluan told Qin Mu that according to the current population situation, the grain storage can support about a month. But if the population continues to converge, the food will be consumed faster.

This grim reality forced Qin Mu to hold a meeting. Let's figure it out together.

Faced with this problem, neither the military nor the civilian side can do anything.

In the past few years, they have regarded Qin Mu as a god-like existence. As long as you work according to Qin Mu's instructions every day, you can achieve victory after victory under the leadership of the regiment leader, and obtain one result after another.

In the past, everyone never worried about these logistics matters, isn't this the regiment commander and logistics in charge?

Faced with this situation, Zhe Meiluan can only explain the situation again in person - it's not that he doesn't work hard, but the situation is out of control!

Understanding the situation in front of him, Shi Yi looked at the officers and saw a positive answer in their eyes, so Shi Yi spoke: "Regiment commander, our Guards Regiment thinks that we can go and grab the grain from the surrounding state cities. ”

As soldiers, their mission is to defend their homeland and country. Now that there is no food at home, and I can't buy it when I see it, can I make my family unable to eat?

Go grab it! There's no food here, there's something else. It is not that there is no food in the world, but that grain prices are raised everywhere and grain is not sold.

In that case, don't blame the Guards Regiment for being unkind.

This proposal was not only the opinion of the army, but also the consent of the civil affairs department.

By this time, no one felt that Da Song was still his opponent. Without the need for the Guards Regiment to make a move, the steel from the steel mill was smashed and killed by the imperial court.

If you can't buy food, then if you don't want to starve to death, you have to grab it!

Not only can they not starve to death, on the contrary, they want to live better and better!

With enough steel, the woks also entered the homes of ordinary people. Now the people in the area of Weishan Lake have completely detached their diet from this time and space. They stir-fry more and steam less.

Qin Mu's original intention was to buy grain. He had money, and it was all hard currency—copper coins, and he could even exchange them for unique goods. But the price of food has skyrocketed fivefold, and the business is not worth it – the cost is too high.

And now it's a seller's market. It's like Steward Lin has a full set of goods, but he can't buy enough food.

The importance of food at this time is reflected. Now food is worth more than commodities. You can't die without buying an enamel washbasin, but you will starve to death without food!

"Merit, I think Camp Commander Shi's opinion is very good." Zhe Kecun also spoke: "Now that production is so tight, if there is a problem with food, the impact will be too great." ”

Well, since no one objected, Qin Mu himself couldn't object, and he had no reason to object.

As a result, the meeting was dismissed, leaving only military personnel to continue discussing the specific implementation plan.

Weishan Lake is a place that belongs to Teng County. It's just that since the mining rights of Weishan Lake were obtained, the Yamen of Teng County has actually lost its management of Weishan Lake.

Now there are two options for grabbing food. One is to be close to the nearest and grab the grain in Teng County first.

Teng County is not without food. There are often liquidations in the county, and the Duan family and the Wang family themselves are big landowners, and now they have money, although they can't buy more, but they themselves have a lot of land and a lot of grain storage.

Food in this space is the largest strategic material. Not only Qin Mu knows the importance of food, but everyone knows the importance of food!

Both patriarchs piled up mountains of grain, which was the inherent thinking of the agricultural era for thousands of years!

It's like Pushan Gong Li Mi laid down Xingluocang, in addition to letting the surrounding people move food casually, he can also feed hundreds of thousands of Wagang troops.

It can be seen that the reserves of the granary at this time, and the importance that people attach to the storage of grain!

(Actually, when I was in high school, my grandmother buried two large tanks of millet in her yard, each one more than one person tall.) It is said that it is used to save life during famine. ^_^)

If the Guards Regiment looted the grain on the ground in Teng County, it could immediately relieve the food tension.

But in this way, Qin Mu will be directly exposed under the nose of the imperial court.

So far, don't look at Qin Mu's big formation, but he has never fought any of the imperial court's cities, and the current situation that the imperial power does not go to the countryside leads to the fact that if the county does not say it, the above will not know anything.

The magistrate of Teng County was fed by the folded family, so naturally he didn't mention anything.

Now in Zhao Ji's eyes, Qin Mu is a good person, and he is still a half-immortal. Even if there are signs of disobedience in the Zhe family, Qin Mu has not yet.

The small pills were delivered on time, and now there are more of them. This is a real elixir!

Now Zhao Ji has become seriously dependent on the blue pill, without this, he can't be happy!

The situation in front of him is so tense, there is the Jin Kingdom outside, there is the Heavenly Master Army inside, there is the Zhejia family next to it, and the prices in Bianliang City are soaring, which makes Zhao Ji have a headache.

If he couldn't take a blue pill every day, he wouldn't be able to find the joy of life.

Just when he was so worried that his hair was about to fall out, he suddenly received a very unexpected piece of good news.
