Chapter 33: Fiscal Pressure
When Liu Jinshan left, Xia Jun used a tractor to transport goods to him as usual, and at the same time entrusted Liu Jinshan to buy cotton and tobacco, and the quantity was huge.
Sending Liu Jinshan away, Xia Jun was busy with education.
Xixiang's primary schools, middle schools, and universities are all under construction at this time, and Xia Jun is also hurriedly preparing textbooks, which need to be carefully compiled in Chinese and history.
In terms of language, Xia Jun made up some short stories, such as 'The Regiment Leader Goes to the Countryside', which describes the life of an orphan in winter, much like a little match girl whose parents were killed by bandits and left alone.
After the tragic foreshadowing, the glorious regimental commander suddenly arrived, brought him enough food to survive the winter, repaired his dilapidated thatched house, and brought him a new, warm bedding......
It can be seen from this article that Xia Jun's shamelessness has reached a certain level.
The other texts were taken from later textbooks, and their main role was to promote the vernacular and criticize the rule of the Manchus.
In terms of history, Xia Jun is very skilled in compiling the textbook, which is divided into a short version and a detailed version. The abridged version mainly introduces the formation and development of the Han nationality, as well as the development of productive forces in different dynasties, as well as the achievements of civilization, and the glory of China.
On the other hand, it is the history of blood and tears of the Chinese nation, the Chinese nation has been attacked by foreign races for a long time, and every large-scale invasion of foreign races is accompanied by various strange events. The period of each large-scale invasion of the alien race is the coldest period of the global climate, and each time there is a large number of strange local climates and events.
The assessment of the Manchus was, a bunch of shameless robbers. He took advantage of the war between the peasant army and the Ming Dynasty to enter the Guannai, and ruled China for three hundred years with barbaric means, plunging the Chinese nation into the darkest period.
After the language and history textbooks were written, they were handed over to the temporary 'teacher training courses', and these teachers were trained as they taught.
The Chinese language uses pinyin, and the mathematics has a ninety-nine multiplication table, which is very innovative, which makes a group of teachers who came to Xixiang very amazing. The textbooks of science and engineering are basically copied from the textbooks of later generations, both from the mainland and from Taiwan, and they are all very standardized textbooks.
Xia Jun then set up an 'electrician training course', a 'construction training class', one to train electricians, and the other to train construction technical jobs.
As far as road construction is concerned, there is a need for rebar workers, cement workers, carpenters and other workers, some of whom have relatively high technical surnames, and some have relatively low technical surnames......
At the same time, there must be a construction worker, and the construction worker is led by Xu Wenbo, Xu Wenbo can be said to be the most tired one, not only to teach, but also to direct the construction.
For this reason, Xu Wenbo was so miserable that he hurriedly wrote a letter to call someone. As a civil engineer, he naturally knows some of his peers.
Xia Jun saw that he was working so hard, so he hurriedly gave him a raise.
At the same time, Xu Wener's scholarly letters also inspired him, so why not let other teachers and students pull people?
So Xia Jun clearly marked the price, introducing a middle school student to reward 5 silver dollars, introducing a college student, rewarding 10 silver dollars, introducing an ordinary teacher to reward 20 silver dollars, introducing a science and engineering teacher to reward 100 silver dollars, and introducing a science and engineering international student to reward 300 silver dollars.
At the same time, Xia Jun selected twenty people from these students and set up a recruitment training class, Xia Jun wanted to use them to recruit talents in other provinces, and what talents he wanted, he needed to make it clear to them, so he trained it.
Taken together, these measures are a three-pronged approach.
One relied on Liu Jinshan's help to recruit, one recruited by himself, and the other recruited students and teachers wrote letters.
Xia Jun believes that under the high treatment and various means, there will be no shortage of talents in the future, but there will be a shortage of money!
With such a high salary, you have to support so many people, how can you feed them if you don't have money.
Xia Jun hurriedly opened another cigarette factory.
It takes 50,000 points to build a semi-automatic production line composed of cigarette machines, small bag machines, filter splicing machines, vacuum resurgence machines, defoliating machines, steaming machines, stalk presses, silk dryers and other equipment in the 60s.
It turned out that the cigarette factory needed a paper mill, but Xia Jun had to build an acetate manufacturing plant.
Acetate is the material used to make filters, which is a high-grade man-made fiber, which can be made of human hair, but there is not much human hair after all, and it is mainly obtained after partial saponification of cellulose triacetate, and cellulose triacetate is made of good quality wood.
First, we have to build a 'cellulose triacetate manufacturing plant', using the rich forest resources in northwest Fujian as raw materials, and then use cellulose triacetate to make 'acetate', and then use 'acetate' to make filters.
Cellulose triacetate is also the raw material for the manufacture of liquid crystal display frequency, but it is not possible to make that thing at present, mainly used to manufacture acetate fiber, a manufacturing plant that makes 10,000 tons of cellulose triacetate per year needs 50,000 points, and the acetate manufacturing plant is expensive, a manufacturing plant with an annual output of 1,000 tons will need 100,000 points.
Originally, Xia Jun thought that the low-cost and high-profit cigarette factory was very suitable for absorbing gold, but at this time he found that it was not so simple, but fortunately, acetate can not only be used to make filters, but also can be used in textiles, which is a high-grade textile material.
In April, Xia Jun earned 300,000 points of popular hearts, and at the same time 280,000 points of bandits, and at this time, Xia Jun only had 450,000 points left.
Under financial pressure, Xia Jun gritted his teeth and exchanged the equipment for these factories.
At the same time, Xia Jun also spent 50,000 points to build a spinning mill with an annual processing capacity of 10,000 tons (leading level), which requires 50,000 points. To build a matching textile mill, it also takes 50,000 points.
300,000 points were spent like this, and Xia Jun began to be busy with running a factory and half a school.
Xia Jun has someone in his hands at this time, and it is much easier to set up a factory, those middle school students and college students are all cultural people, and they are all young people with strong plastic surnames.
There are a few international students in science and engineering, although Xia Jun is still busy on tiptoe, but both the administrative scope and the number of factories are expanding.
"Headmaster, there aren't enough wires, and the wire network can't be erected."
"Commander, the fuel is running out......"
"Commander, the chemical materials for papermaking have run out ......"
The things that Xia Jun needs to exchange are messy, but fortunately, there are all raw materials and products on the exchange platform. The factory is almost ready, but the raw materials are not yet available.
For this reason, Xia Jun began to send people to buy cotton and tobacco, but he didn't put all the raw material demand on Liu Jinshan, and that guy obviously couldn't provide so many raw materials.
So Xia Jun sent people to Fuzhou to buy cotton and tobacco from outside, while asking Lin Debao to plan the areas where tobacco can be grown, cotton will be exempted, although cotton can be planted in northern Fujian, but there is not so much land to grow cotton, it is not as cost-effective as planting high-yield rice.
Now that there is someone at hand, it is time to connect with the outside world.
There are great advantages to being in line with the outside world, the biggest advantage is that raw materials can be imported, Fujian lacks a lot of resources, and other provinces in China even if they have these resources, they are still in the unexploited stage, so many raw materials need to be imported from abroad.
Xia Jun can exchange for all kinds of advanced industrial equipment, and he can import raw materials from abroad, and then process them into commodities and sell them abroad, impacting the industry of the gringos.
However, if you want to develop industry in northern Fujian, first of all, the road must be smooth, although the tractor can drive to Fuzhou on the provincial road, but the road is still not spacious enough, it is easy to block.
Xia Jun planned to build the road from Jian'an County to Fuzhou, but at this time, Xia Jun completely ignored the existence of local officials and was very unrestrained.
This is based on the armed forces, but now the security regiment plus the second-line troops are only 1,100 people, and the administrative area is currently expanding, Xia Jun must send troops to the township to cooperate with the administration, clear out the bandits, defend the government, and buy people's hearts.
This amount of troops was not enough at this time, and a new round of army expansion was also put on the agenda.
This time, Xia Jun plans to recruit 2,500 recruits and organize them into 15 companies, plus the current five companies, a total of 20 companies, and in this expansion, the main force will be expanded into a battalion, and the battalion configuration is three infantry companies, a machine gun platoon, a reconnaissance platoon, a cooking platoon, a communications squad, plus officers and instructors, a total of 548 people.
