Chapter 260: Economic Initiatives

Fiat currency has been abolished by devils in the occupied areas and has been exchanged cheaply. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 The problem caused by this is that the goods are purchased from the Guangfu area, resulting in a shortage of materials and rising prices in the Guangfu area.

Therefore, although Yang Tianfeng cannot reissue currency, he is by no means soft on the issue of cracking down on smuggling into the occupied areas. In order to meet the needs of the war and tide over the difficult years of the war, the Commissioner's Office also implemented a policy of unified purchase and sales. From grain to salt, cloth, cotton and linen, silk, edible oil, etc., the people can only buy these things with the negotiable vouchers issued by the Commissioner's Office, which is equivalent to the second currency.

Similarly, if the people want to sell the materials they purchase and sell, they can only sell them to the supply and marketing cooperatives established by the Commissioner's Office, and then use the fiat currency or negotiable coupons to buy the daily necessities they need from the supply and marketing cooperatives, or directly exchange them for physical goods.

Although the implementation of unified purchasing and sales has reduced the number of commodities that can be freely traded in the base areas, the construction of private factories promoted by Yang Tianfeng has increased the number of commodities in the supply and marketing cooperatives. The inconvenience caused to the people's lives by this is actually only in the early stage, and it is completely within the scope of the people's tolerance.

Of course, Yang Tianfeng also had to adopt the "scissors difference" to obtain more development funds. The so-called "scissors difference" is actually a kind of "dark tax," which is the difference between the low price of agricultural products purchased and the high price of industrial products sold to peasants.

There was no way, without the invaluable dedication of the Chinese peasants, the primitive accumulation of industrial construction would have taken a long time, which was contrary to the needs of the war.

As a form of compensation for farmers, the Commissioner's Office has set up a credit department to provide farmers with small, low-interest loans to purchase livestock, tools, fertilizers and other means of production. In addition, medicines are sold on credit without interest to fixed residents in the base area for a period of one year.

In this way, the increase in production after the use of fertilizers will be enough to offset the interest on the loan, and there will be at least 10% to 20% of the balance. And when you get sick, you don't have to go bankrupt, you can cure the disease on credit, and then use the income of labor to repay it.

I have to say that the Chinese people are simple, kind, and the most patient, and the little policies that can improve their living conditions will be grateful. Yang Tianfeng is still a little uneasy, but the praise and praise of the people have quietly risen.

In fact, every country and every government, unless it is dizzy and frenzied, hopes to be stable for a long time. Policies are also designed to address practical difficulties as a means and measure to protect stability.

However, whether a policy is a policy and a law is a law, whether it is implemented in a way that is not out of shape, or whether it is only a written article to look good, or whether it is distorted and twisted in the course of implementation, it will become a bad government that harms the people and harms the people.

Therefore, the bureaucracy that implements policy is a crucial link. Yang Tianfeng attaches the most importance to this and pays the most attention to it. In the war environment, whether or not the government affairs system in the base areas can remain clean and efficient is also a factor that cannot be ignored in its development and growth. Therefore, supervision measures such as inspection groups and whistle-blowing boxes have been implemented one after another to ensure the correctness and consistency of policies from formulation to implementation to the greatest extent and to ensure the integrity of the bureaucracy.

No matter what party you are or what your background is, as long as you can do your job well, as long as you are not corrupt or corrupt, Yang Tianfeng will boldly use it, and ask the Commissioner's Office to have the same standard of employment. Among these government officials, Yang Tianfeng doesn't care if there is GCXD, as long as he doesn't disclose his identity, even if he can be sure, he will not expose it, he will not be dismissed, and he will use it as usual.

In fact, deep in Yang Tianfeng's heart, he hopes that GCXD exists. And what he is trying to create is not only the construction model of the army, the framework of industrial and agricultural development, but also the development path of the country at a deeper level in the future.

If the Yongcheng base area can develop smoothly, Yang Tianfeng hopes that others will learn from it, and he hopes to create a successful model and promote it throughout the country.

Of course, hope is hope, what kind of result will be achieved, Yang Tianfeng is not sure. But he is indeed down-to-earth step by step in practice and moving forward.

The construction and development of the army was already on the right track, and the officers who had experienced many battles and had been taught by Yang Tianfeng had also grown up, so that he did not have to participate in every battle, which greatly freed up his time and energy.

The Eighth Route Army replied quickly, agreed to fight in concert, and was ready to welcome the New Seventh Army to send troops into the area under its control to jointly carry out operations against the enemy.

According to the plan drawn up, the two brigades and reinforced artillery regiments of the 25th Division of the New Seventh Army, under the leadership of division commander Guo Songlin, secretly assembled in Dangshan County. The Luxi Military Region of the Eighth Route Army dispatched two regiments and the Yellow River Detachment in the Huxi Base Area, with a total of more than 4,000 people to cooperate in the operation.

At this time, the 25th, 26th, and 27th divisions of the New Seventh Army were each numbering more than 9,000 people, and they were not fully manned. The main thing is the presence of separate brigades and garrison brigades, which thin part of the troops. However, the expansion of the army continues, and new recruits continue to be recruited and trained, and according to the plan and the current progress, an average of more than 3,000 people are added to the army every month.

Suixi, Yongcheng, Xiayi, Dangshan, Mengcheng, Boxian, Shangqiu, Luyi, Yucheng, and Wuyang, there are already 10 counties under the complete control of the New Seventh Army, as well as the rural areas of Suxian and Xiaoxian.

General Guo Songlin led the army to attack the Xiao County area from the northwest in a roundabout way; Chief of Staff Liang Moqing went to Suixi to take command, with Tong Zhihe's 26th Division as the main force, threatening Xiao County from the southwest. Yang Tianfeng became idle all of a sudden.

It's not true to say that he is idle, but that he doesn't need to go into battle in person for this military operation. But there's a lot more to do, and he's still busy!

……………

Xuzhou, Headquarters of the 17th Division.

The hall was filled with Japanese officers, all of them in a clear yellow color. Everyone sat up straight and listened to the Third Major General Sakurai, the chief of staff of the 12th Army, making arrangements for the winter sweep.

Although he is a major general, he is the chief of staff, and even the commander of the 17th Division, Hirabayashi Shengren, has to obey his orders. Of course, Hirabayashi Morito was eager to attack the New Seventh Army and sweep up the Yongcheng base area, and he was eager to avenge the revenge of the Tanaka Infantry Regiment.

Sakurai had a command knife hanging from his waist on the left, the gems and golden stripes on the hilt glittered in the light, and the stern face hid confidence and arrogance, and the two wolf-like eyes swept over the faces of the attendees from time to time.
