Chapter 218: The Grand Blueprint
"What about the lack of talent? Naturally, it is to ask for people from other industries. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Gao Feng paused and then said: "First of all, I want people from farmers. Don't look at the hard work of farmers, but they are seasonal, that is, when the farm is busy, it is very hard, but usually very idle, then there will be a large amount of surplus labor, in addition, if the labor efficiency can be improved, there will also be surplus labor. Although these laborers do not have much technical component, they are large in number and have great strength, and we can invite them to help us with construction, mining, transportation, building houses, etc., so that we can avoid the dilemma of having few people, and at the same time can increase the income of the peasants, which is a good thing to kill two birds with one stone. ”
This point of view is not difficult to understand. Farmers are the most populous group, and the cost of employment is low, inviting them to work is a long-term plan of many businesses, and Gao Feng's words are just helping everyone find an excuse to hire people.
"Will this lead to a large flow of agricultural population to industry and commerce, which will lead to a reduction in agricultural production?" Zhang Ye was a little worried about this proposal.
"Yes, what if they taste the sweetness of industry and commerce and are unwilling to go back to farming?" Gu Zheng is also worried.
"The two adults are too worried." Gao Feng said with a smile: "It is inevitable that the migration of people from agriculture to industry and commerce will not lead to a reduction in agricultural production. ”
"What do you mean by that?" Zhang Ye asked in surprise.
"There are two reasons why peasants move to industry and commerce: one is that peasants do not have their own land and rely on renting other people's land to make a living, so that they do not go to farming, and the land still has a head of household, and it will not be desolate. Second, the peasant has his own land, but the harvest is not as high as that of working outside, so he prefers to work outside, which is a bit complicated, but it is not impossible to solve. ”
Gao Feng briefly listed the reasons, and said: "In view of the first situation, the landlord is naturally unwilling to let the land idle, otherwise he will be the one who suffers, what should I do?" He either reduced the rent of the land and brought the peasants back to farming, or sold the land to those who could afford it, or he improved the tools of labor and increased the efficiency of labor, so that more land could be cultivated with a small number of people. Either way, it's a good thing, and it will improve the farmers' chances of owning the land, so that more land will go back to those who really want to farm. ”
"The second case is complicated because it requires a process to determine who owns the land and the people who planted it. We can make a hypothesis. When a large number of peasants flock into the industrial and commercial ranks, the demand for grain will increase dramatically due to demographic changes, and at the same time, the price of grain will rise. On the other hand, there will be fierce competition due to the overcrowding of people in the industrial and commercial ranks, which will reduce the cost of employment and make it impossible for those migrant workers and peasants to find work or earn money. With the joint promotion of these two, a large number of peasants will return to the ranks of farmers again, which is the so-called reflux. The returnee will bring two benefits to the farmer: first, he will earn some money by working outside, and when he returns, he will buy more land of his own, and he will be more at ease to farm. Second, those who have worked outside the home will no longer be conservative in their thinking, and they will be a new force dedicated to improving land utilization. In this way, the agricultural team will be more stable, and the land will be more efficient. Of course, this is only one of the aspects I have enumerated, and in the face of some more complex situations, our government will have to step in to regulate and control them, for example, we can set up farm leave, so that those farmers can work and farm at the same time, and so on, and so on, I will not list them here. ”
Regardless of whether they could accept it for a while, Gao Feng still pointed out the problems and solutions to Zhang Ye and Gu Zheng, and they nodded in agreement.
I was about to skim this article, and then asked the next question, but Gao Feng said again: "In fact, when agricultural development reaches a certain stage, there will be a combination of agriculture and business, which is the highest state of agricultural development." ”
"Agri-business? What does this mean?" Zhang Ye couldn't help but ask again.
Gao Feng explained: "After the development of agriculture to a certain extent, it will no longer be a pure planting industry, but also include breeding, breeding, cultivation, agricultural and sideline products, cash crops, anti-seasonal crops, agricultural product processing and other projects, which will appear in the market in the nature of commodities, and they can also make a lot of money." That is to say, it relies on agriculture, but it is integrated with the characteristics of commerce, so it is called the combination of agriculture and commerce, which will promote the development of agriculture to the greatest extent and enable agriculture to enter a new era. ”
As soon as Gao Feng's words came out, everyone couldn't help but take a big breath. They were not surprised by the prospect described by Gao Feng, but because many of the words were fresh and could not be digested for a while.
However, it doesn't matter whether others can digest it or not, Zhang Ye and Gu Zheng listened with great interest, and they began to yearn for the prospects described by Gao Feng, if they really want to reach that state, it is worth it for them to be busy.
Gao Feng described this blueprint to everyone, but he was very bitter in his heart. He knows very well that behind the beauty is ugliness, once the combination of agriculture and commerce, it will bring convenience to everyone, but also bring the most fatal problem, that is, food safety, this problem will completely show the ugly face of those businessmen, so that people lose confidence in businessmen.
There are pros and cons to everything, sometimes it is easy to pull the egg when the step is big, but the peak is still cautious, and he would rather not do it than make a mistake, if the food safety standard does not come out, he will definitely not help promote the combination of agriculture and business.
Of course, he also knows that once the wheel of interests spins, there is nothing he can do to stop it, so he can only stick to his creed first, and then look for opportunities to participate in the management of the government step by step, and resolutely put an end to those ugly things in the bud.
Before anyone was surprised, Gao Feng spoke again: "The second is to ask for people, of course, in terms of the current atmosphere, this is difficult. ”
Gao Feng did not hide it, but told the truth, he only slightly improved the status of businessmen and was opposed, if the scholars were reduced to businessmen, it is estimated that the world will be in chaos. Still, he stubbornly continued.
"As I said earlier, taxis have been wasted because of the crowding of talents, but they don't want to be in the company of industry and commerce, which makes their diversion the biggest problem. However, I don't think it's impossible. ”
"What's the solution?" Zhang Ye asked urgently.
