Behind such a truthful text, the resettlement area convened a party committee about the future. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

At the meeting, Lan Qi first read the news of the outside world from Janssen's perspective.

Subsequently, Chen Jian made an analysis report on the future situation.

"Let's talk about our immigration site first. According to my analysis, at least in ten years, we will be a pure land here, at least there will not be too much interference. ”

"First of all, the domestic plutocracy, bureaucracy and capital will not have their eyes on here. Whether it is a war or an investment, it needs to be profitable. ”

"The fertile tropical islands south of our homeland can grow sugar cane, extract sugar, mine gold and silver, and catch expensive beaver skins......"

"And we here, in a short period of time, can basically say that we are completely losing money. Just as the canal of free capital can appear in the mining area of Nan'an and Mincheng, but the canal of free capital cannot appear in the impoverished mountainous area. For the same ten silver coins, you can earn ten by investing them on a tropical island, and if you invest them here, you may lose nothing. ”

"Suppose there is no gold or silver here, and no sugar cane can be grown, and there are only two kinds of people who are willing to come here in the short term: those who are poor and cannot live; The civil uprising was suppressed and sentenced. Obviously, the ongoing handicraft machinery revolution in China will give birth to these two types of people in batches, which is good news for us. ”

"Ten, twenty, or even thirty years from now, when the sheer population and the cultivated land make it profitable, we're on our feet, and it's hard for them to get their hands here."

"So, once the circumnavigation is over, and as soon as news from the outside world spreads throughout the homeland, a large number of wealthy people will focus on the tropics to the south. Trade, plantations, gold and silver mines, and so on, the country will also focus on that. Even...... It's quite possible that there will be slaves, as Janssen said, and that's very likely. ”

"Especially after Mincheng has established a nautical insurance company, a stock exchange, a futures exchange and a large trading port to pool a large amount of capital, these capital will become a person. And this person's personality is to chase profits, and the profits in the southern tropics are too great, and they will go crazy and drill over there. ”

"The great value of the southern tropics will make those big families, the army and navy people want to move. Except for us, there will be no strong forces and capital in China to focus on this side. There is no money for those who are willing to come, and the money that has money will take him south instead of coming here. ”

"This is an unquestionable rule, unless it is changed by a strong organizational force and the will of the state: for example, knowing the great value of this barren land, and not investing in the settlement of new land here. If those people in China can do this, then there will be no room for us to be active. ”

"So that's going to be the case for at least ten years, and we've got plenty of room to do that."

For Chen Jian's analysis of the future situation, everyone still feels novel, after all, this is the first time that someone has tried to speculate on the future direction from another perspective.

Although there are some things that the people don't understand, there is no problem with the internal logic, and they can't oppose it.

Some of the truths are simple, like the most suitable land for development in the Stone Age, but not necessarily the richest land in the post-Iron Age. Conversely, the richest land in the post-Iron Age may not have been developed in the Stone Age.

At this time, the mainstream direction of colonial and capital flows was tropical, not temperate. The profits of sugarcane plantations and cochineal dye plantations are 100 times higher than that of reclaiming land to grow food. Even farther north, the near cold zone, capital is more willing to patronize it, after all, there are still expensive furs.

Chen Jian is now working for the General Administration of Agricultural Reclamation and the Production and Construction Corps, but unfortunately no one has awarded him medals. This is an investment against the rules of capital, and whether it is worth it depends on a hundred years from now, but unfortunately capital itself will not have such a long-term vision, it is too short-sighted.

But this short-sightedness also leaves plenty of room for this group of idealists and disgruntled elements to maneuver, which is a good thing.

After discussing for a while, the people in the audience basically agreed with Chen Jian's analysis of the future situation. Lan Qi nodded secretly, she probably thought the same thing in her heart, but she didn't know how to express it in words and logic,

Someone stood up and asked, "What other development opportunities do we have on our side?" ”

Chen Jian hung up a piece of paper, roughly marking the location of his homeland, the tropical islands, the Europe in Janssen's mouth, and this place of settlement, which was not so strict, but replaced it with squares.

"Within two years, our goal is to achieve food self-sufficiency and ensure sufficient arable land for food. This problem requires more cattle and horses, new farming machines, and I will solve this. ”

"Since the Spain in question is in the southern archipelago and on another continent, they also need cotton, grain, cattle and sheep, and so on. This is our chance to earn credits to continue farming. ”

"We're going to grow cotton and indigo here. With the use of new water-powered spinning machines, carding machines, and hand-drawn looms, the production of cheap cotton cloth. Within five years, let the women here develop this place into a textile center. ”

"Organize a group of prospecting teams to go up the river and look for all kinds of ores in the surrounding area of three or four hundred miles. The main areas of activity of our organization in China are coal mines, iron mines, smelters, glass factories, and chemical plants. We have no shortage of technical talents, and domestic schools are also constantly cultivating talents. If possible, within five years establish workshops for the smelting of iron, ingots, glass, chemicals, improvised machinery and weapons and guns. ”

"Export westward to the countries that Janssen talked about, export to their countries by virtue of our technological superiority. Domestic merchants can monopolize the trade in the south, and the trade here must be held in our hands. ”

"We don't lack the population, on the one hand, we can immigrate in batches, on the other hand, our party organizations can organize migration internally, and the local population can also be used as labor, but first we have to kill their nobles and priests."

"Trade with the Spanish islands and mainland in the south will peak within a decade, after which more sailors and sailors will begin to try their hand at this trade, and even further afield. In the past ten years, China has gradually understood how to communicate with the outside world and obtain benefits, and after they react, we must stand firm...... Fight for it to become the thirty-seventh county! ”

"If all goes well, within 10 years, at least 400,000 people in the country will be left without a living because of the onslaught of new hydro and agricultural machinery. This is our opportunity, and it is what we must strive for. It is necessary to prevent the use of the old guards in the country, and to prevent the radicals from starting a revolution, and bring these people here as much as possible, even if they can come to the tenth of them, and the most difficult beginning of everything will be completed. ”

The plan for the next ten years seems ambitious, but everyone thinks it is very operable.

Many places in Mincheng have been infiltrated by the organization, and Chen Jian is one of the best...... Once the Standard Oil mill began to sell on a large scale, it was not necessary to count two, and it was the largest capitalist in Mincheng.

Mining areas and large workshops where the party organization is most active, where the grassroots organizational power can be utilized; Chen Jian's large-scale workshops of steel ingots, glass, and chemical industry can fully transfer technology on a large scale.

A large number of students who have signed employment contracts with Lanxiang Technical School will have one year before the harvest period, which can be sent here in a steady stream. Mechanical principles, drilling, explosives, construction, etc., are the first batch of apprentices and skilled workers from semi-professional classes in Mincheng, and they will be sent here in batches regardless of whether they want to or not.

Years of silent and seemingly useless preparations, which are basically regarded as party organizations with a program and not poor capital, will burst out with a powerful force far beyond this era once the goal is determined.

After the meeting, Lan Qi asked Jian Chen, "When will you go back to Mincheng?" ”

"It's going to take some time. Wait for the direction of the wind and the currents, and also see the food situation here, at least after the first potatoes and sweet potatoes are harvested. This time I had to prepare a large number of cattle, horses, machinery, and the second batch of immigrants. There is still some business to attend to in the homeland, and an attempt to circumnavigate the world will be organized. What, homesick? ”

"Not really. Originally, the family had enough food and clothing, and if I didn't do something, I would feel bored. Besides, I've really enjoyed the business, and I'm not the kind of person you would say about being well-fed, because I know what these people want, and I don't put what I think they want on these people. ”

Lan Qi smiled and stroked a pumpkin that had grown with her hand, and said with a smile: "What is more magnificent than changing the whole world?" People who want to change, in different ways, I also choose the way I like, no regrets. It's like your little beauty in the capital, changing in her way, she doesn't even know that she's changing the world, but the world is really changing. And I know I'm going to change the world, and at least for now, it seems that our organization's vision is not a pipe dream but an achievable one, and I'm really happy. ”

Jian Chen looked at Lan Qi with a smile on his face and said, "By the way, you better hurry up and learn those languages." When it's time to circumnavigate the globe, it's best if you can go along. On the one hand, we will collect some historical materials from that area, and on the other hand, we will also examine the various ways of life and the way in which the state is constituted. ”

Lan Qi nodded, "I know, and I love adventures. You know, every spring or fall, I go hunting or hiking? I'm different from you, my family is very rich and rich, but I'm a woman, so even if I had the world and adventure in my heart, I could only put this mind on hunting or horse racing, otherwise what could I do? Alright, I'm going to learn those crooked words, goodbye. ”

When he turned to leave, Chen Jian said a word.

"Hey...... Don't fall in love, you can't take a boat if you're pregnant......"

Halfway through speaking, Jian Chen immediately reacted, this can be regarded as harassment, and he didn't know why he said such a sentence. Maybe it's the fear of losing or the mentality of being like a dog protecting food...... And with such a ridiculous and seemingly above board reason......

Jian Chen saw Lan Qi suddenly stunned there, and his back paused for a moment.

His face turned red, he felt too embarrassed at this moment, and scolded himself countless times in his heart, but he really couldn't find a sentence that could resolve the embarrassment.

For a long time, Lan Qi didn't look back, no longer stunned, waved his hand behind Jian Chen's back, and said casually and indifferently: "Don't worry." I know. ”

But it seems to be said carelessly, but the pace under his feet is chaotic.

After leaving in a hurry, Jian Chen was at a loss, standing there and reminiscing about the three words "you are relieved", and felt that there were many flavors and thoughts, but in fact, it may just be an answer that the other party was too embarrassed and his head was blank......
