Chapter 31 The Development of Maxim Town

The Free Army definitely can't stay in Meisi Town for a long time, at least for now, before the matter in Langbassha Town is dealt with, Wu Chen doesn't want to make any extraneous trouble, so the training of the local garrison will soon begin. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In addition to the more than 500 people who needed to return to the furnace to retrain before, there were more than 200 young men who joined the ranks, which was the spontaneous behavior of the common people to thank the free army and defend their homeland.

In fact, Wu Chen believes that it is the soldier's salary he announced that is the main condition for these people to become soldiers, and the monthly salary of 300 US dollars is equivalent to 7,500 baht, plus the income from the field, which can make the family live a good life.

It stands to reason that to be a soldier is to fight, and to fight a war is to die, what a simple truth, why are there still people who take the initiative, this is not a national conscription! The key is that the local forces in the Golden Triangle rarely fight wars, and they are often in a state of confrontation, and they may not be able to fight when they are soldiers.

There is no need to replace the weapons for the time being, although Mei Sizhen uses obsolete American-style equipment, but among the armies of various countries in Southeast Asia, it is not so backward, at most there is no heavy equipment.

On the one hand, Wu Chen sent Meng Ling and Du Saidi to Chiang Mai to drive more than a dozen large trucks to buy dozens of tons of daily necessities, except for the rice distributed to the poor households, most of the rest of the materials were distributed to the soldiers, including toothpaste, toothbrushes, electric razors, towels, soap, shampoo and other scattered things. On the other hand, through Marcas, thousands of camouflage training uniforms and backpacks were customized in the United States, including tank tops, underwear and socks, all of which were for military use.

"Mr. Shati, if you want to improve the living standard of Meisi Town, it is a drop in the bucket just to rely on government funding, and you must actively find a way for the people, it is better to teach people to fish than to teach people to fish, this is a famous saying in China." Wu Chen said to Sha Ti in the office.

"I think your suggestion is very correct, I have just started now, and I haven't made a specific plan yet, do you have any instructions?" Shati said. With his experience and experience, of course he knows who is the master of Mei Si Town.

"Send a deputy mayor, who must be the type who is good at dealing with the government, and bring a few staff members to Chiang Mai to set up a Mae Si town office and openly recruit a group of teachers, doctors and nurses from Chiang Mai province. Three towns, each town must have a middle school and five primary schools, and the town of Maisi must also have a high school, a clinic for every 1,000 people, and a hospital in each town, which is the most basic requirement. ”

"My requirements for teachers are that they must be proficient in Chinese and English, must have a bachelor's degree, and if they have teaching experience, they will be preferred. Doctors and nurses in various departments are required, must have more than three years of work experience, and must have a stable family. Wu Chen said.

There is an interesting phenomenon in the Golden Triangle, many towns are inhabited by Chinese people, and Huaxia is also the lingua franca, even the renminbi is the currency in circulation, and if you go further north to Kokang, electricity and communication are all from the help of Huaxia.

Sha Ti still had a lot of brains for Wu Chen's title, and after thinking about it, he still felt that the training group called him more appropriately, and said: "Boss, Meisi Town is in the Golden Triangle, where the poor and backward environment is complex, and the doctors and nurses are a little better, I'm afraid that there are no talents in education who are willing to come, because there is no future for development, and the standard of living is also very low." ”

Why are you so unenlightened, Wu Chen glanced at him, and said lightly: "I think this problem is actually very easy to solve, as the saying goes, people die for money, birds die for food, and people want to reflect their own value, which is to show through income, is there anything that dollars can't do?" ”

Then he said: "Working in Mae Si Town for a month, or a year or a few years in Thailand, do you still need to worry about no one wanting to come? Is it okay to have a monthly salary of 1,000 US dollars, but if it is not enough, it is 2,000 US dollars, which is equivalent to 50,000 baht, or 600,000 baht a year. ”

This is really domineering enough, how many people in the world can withstand the pounding of dollars? Thailand's economic development is very fast, and the income is gradually increasing, but if you want to get a salary of 2,000 US dollars a month, that is, 50,000 baht, and reach 600,000 baht a year, whether it is a teacher or a doctor, most people are just dreaming.

Not to mention those few high-income groups, there are billionaires in poor places, and when it comes to ordinary people, that is, the level of five or six thousand baht a month, which is equivalent to less than three hundred dollars, which is a little lower than Wu Chen's salary to the soldiers.

Sha Ti was completely speechless at the boss's words, he never thought that Wu Chen attached so much importance to education and medical care, and was willing to spend so many dollars to hire talents, which showed that this big man wanted to build the Meisi Town area as his own home, which was good news for the people.

According to the practice of Meisi Town, Wu Chen took Meng Ling to Chunsa Town and Qingla Town, and also elected his own mayor within a week, set up a simple office, recruited a group of staff, began to verify the number of their residents, and prepared to issue a subsidy of 300 US dollars per person, for which another group of young people applied to join the Free Army.

At present, when there is a shortage of people, Wu Chen told the mayors and deputy mayors of various towns that as long as they have a primary school education and can read and count, they can be recruited to work in the town government, of course, these people will be affected when they are promoted.

At most, by the end of the year, the town government will have to recruit staff from Chiang Mai's universities, and it would be false to say that academic qualifications do not matter. In the era of computing and automation, the children of farmers have never been to school, and it takes a while to learn about these modern office facilities, which can cause delays in work.

"Boss, there are more and more people who want to join the army, more than 600 people have come to Chunsa Town in a week, Qingla Town is even more outrageous, reaching more than 800 people, plus these more than 700 people in Meisi Town, the total number has exceeded 2,000 people, I am worried that it will cause obstacles to the production of various towns in the future, and the young labor force will be less, and the development of agriculture and industry will be affected!" Hunter came back from the registration point with a tired look and sat down on the sofa in his office.

This office is the original boss of Mae Si Town, so close to Chiang Mai, the decoration and furniture are super luxurious, the floor is marble floor tiles, leather sofas imported from Italy, and the most satisfying thing for Wu Chen is that the bookcase and desk behind it are actually made of yellow rosewood, which is worth a lot of money after 20 years. There is a separate bedroom and tea room, among which the tea set used in the tea room is purple sand from China, which is quite enjoyable.

Wu Chen, who was talking to Shati, smoked a cigar and said indifferently: "There must be an impact, but you don't take the matter seriously, whether it is the Mae Si Town area or the Lang Basa Sha Town area, the future factories are high-tech in nature, and the requirements for culture and technology are very high, and the locals obviously do not meet these conditions, and they are bound to be recruited from foreign countries and Thailand." ”

Then he said: "As for the issue of agricultural production, I am going to send people to France to hire agricultural experts to come to us for a consultation with the peasants, what is suitable for the development of this environment in the Golden Triangle region, the land is fertile but the altitude is very high, it is unrealistic to grow grain, and it is necessary to develop cash crops." ”

He continued: "Now the two regions together have a population of nearly 300,000, according to this ratio, a few thousand young people enlist in the army, it will not have much impact, plus all the military expenses are borne by ourselves, there is no tax here, which means that the people have no economic burden, it doesn't matter." ”

Shati said on the side: "Boss, I think if you want to open a factory, it is best to develop to the north, and it is most suitable to develop near Chunsa Town, where the terrain is relatively flat, and the construction speed is fast and the time is short, which can save a lot of costs." ”

He also said: "Mae Si town is too close to Chiang Mai, belongs to the traditional territory of Thailand, and there is no objection from Myanmar and Laos, but due to historical reasons, Thailand has not sent a government agency to implement management, if the economy improves, maybe it will be placed under the jurisdiction of Chiang Mai." ”
