Chapter 196

"And this, the chicken farm, Cai Dudu, don't look at this chicken farm occupies a small area, but if it is officially built, it will only take forty-five days to produce broilers and eggs. And such a chicken farm can probably drive 50 people to work, and the associated additional industries can drive the entire village of Xinnan Village to get rid of poverty and become rich. The group stopped and stopped, and under the leadership of Zhang Xianmo, Cai Ye and the others came to another village around Guiyang.

'The whole village has been lifted out of poverty and become rich? Cai Yi and his entourage immediately shifted their attention to the appearance of this Xinnan Village.

Xinnan Village is not good at all, it is all thatched huts as far as the eye can see, and some farmers look at the arrival of their group of big people, standing at the door and wincing. In the cold of winter, they are still in rags, with yellow and thin faces, and the appearance of severe malnutrition suggests that their normal life is not very good.

This is the village of the old times, the villagers are ignorant, backward, poor, and even timid. There are many such villages in Yunnan, which can be regarded as typical representatives of this era. Cai Ye once tried and wanted to change the living conditions of these people, but when it came time to actually do it, he found that he had no way to change all this.

Today, however, in Guizhou, he has seen tangible actions and tangible changes. This brand-new chicken farm under construction is rising in such a backward village, which is in stark contrast to the backward and outdated village, which makes Cai Ye very touched.

His eyes once again shifted to Zhang Xianmo, who was being introduced, and Cai Ye was in a heavy mood and very touched.

Among the people in Yunnan, although some people admired Zhang Xianmo's practice of serving the people, but at the end of the day, Zhang Xianmo took them to the tattered and sparse countryside to see some so-called farms, and finally an official couldn't help but say: 'I said Minister Zhang, your chicken farm has wasted a lot of money, and if you build a chicken farm in this kind of place, you are not afraid that the chickens will be stolen. ‘

As soon as this person spoke, some people nodded in agreement, and looked at Zhang Xianmo one by one to hear how to answer. But the question has just been asked, and Zhang Xianmo has not yet answered, but Cai Ye reacted first.

'Waste? Cai Ye turned his head, and his sharp eyes swept to this person: "Zhong Chushu, what are you talking about?" What do you know? What is waste? Do you know what it means to be valued? ‘

Suddenly, after a series of questions, Cai Yi's face became ugly for a while, much like a cat that had been stepped on its tail, and it burst out in an instant, and the cold tone made the surrounding air cold a few degrees again.

'Governor, I, I. The official was frightened when he saw Cai Ye like this, his face was dazed, and he didn't know how a problem had provoked their Cai Que Dudu.

"Needless to say, Zhong Chushu, you go home." Cai Ye ignored this person and directly fired this person coldly. Just now, I was still feeling guilty that I had slowed down Guizhou, and I was inferiority to Yunnan that I had no plan in this regard, who knew that Zhong Chushu's pot did not open the pot, and directly touched Cai Yi's sore spot. Not to mention not seriously studying other people's advanced practices, but now you dare to question other people's practices?

Eligible?

'I'm sorry, Minister Zhang, Songpo didn't take care of his subordinates. After Cai Ye solved this little episode sharply, he quickly apologized to Zhang Xianmo.

'It's fine. Zhang Xianmo hurriedly shook his head, and glanced at the poor official by the way.

'Actually, Dudu, your subordinate just now had a good question. Zhang Xianmo then explained: "In fact, the first reaction of most people to develop these basic aquaculture industries is just like that gentleman, thinking that it is a waste. But in fact, this thing is beneficial to the overall military strength of a province and has national defense significance. ‘

'There are benefits, and there are defense implications?' Cai Ye and the others were stunned, they really didn't see it.

'Yes, don't look at the fact that we in Guizhou are doing this now, it may be a waste of money, and we don't use the money to focus on the point, but in fact, everyone is wrong. Only when agriculture and breeding are upgraded and everyone's stomach problems are solved first, will everyone have the heart to expand other industries. Only when the agricultural and breeding industry has developed to a certain foundation will there be a certain foundation for the development of other industries; otherwise, if the foundation is unstable, it will be useless to develop the military and develop others. Zhang Xianmo said a theory that made Cai Ye and them refreshed.

Is there such a connection? Cai Ye and the others were really puzzled, and even curious.

Zhang Xianmo nodded, "Of course there is such a connection. ‘

'Cai Dudu, think about it, how far is it from Guiyang City that we are here now?? Zhang Xianmo suddenly asked a question that was not related.

'Well, ten miles away, probably. Cai Ye was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Zhang Xianmo's thinking to jump so much, but he answered the question very quickly.

Well, it's almost ten miles away. Zhang Xianmo nodded, and then pointed to the pig farm in the distance, the chicken farm nearby, and the pond not far away: "Nadudu, look at the current chicken farm, pig farm, and fish pond, can you think of what kind of scene this will produce if these things are mature, and Guiyang City needs them urgently?" ‘

'What kind of scene is generated, this, everyone will do their best to transport things to Guiyang as soon as possible. Cai Ye didn't know that Zhang Xianmo would ask this question, but after thinking for a second, he answered quickly.

'Do your best to get through?' Zhang Xianmo said: "Then if you suddenly need 1,000 pigs, 10,000 chickens, and 10,000 catties of fish, and this village only has 300 people available, 100 horses, and you need to transport them to Guiyang within an hour, can you do it?" ‘

Cai Yi's brows furrowed, and Dai Jian and the others who followed couldn't help but start thinking about this problem.

'No, I can't. Cai Yi thought for a while, and finally couldn't help but shake his head. Although the ten-mile road is not long, it is obviously impossible to transport so many materials in just one hour. First of all, there is not enough manpower, coupled with the muddy road, it takes more than an hour to transport enough people.

'No, I can't. You are a military wizard, can you help us solve this problem? If there really is that day. Zhang Xianmo seemed to be stumped by Cai Yi, and asked Cai Ye continuous questions.

Although Cai Yi didn't know what connection the question Zhang Xianmo suddenly asked was related to the national defense and military issues he talked about before. But he knew that Zhang Xianmo would definitely not be such a boring person, and he couldn't help but think carefully when he heard the words.

Dai Jian and his entourage also fell into thinking.

It's just that Zhang Xianmo's topic seems to be too extreme, and Cai Ye searched his head all over and didn't think of any way to complete such a difficult task.

Ten minutes later, Cai Yi shook his head: "I'm sorry, Minister Zhang, I can't think of a way. Cai Ye blushed a little, he was stumped by Zhang Xianmo's simple question. He didn't think of looking at Dai Jian and them, and found that Dai Jian and the others didn't come up with any way one by one.

'Hehe, it's fine. Zhang Xianmo smiled and said, "The governor can't think of it, I can give the governor a hint, it's very simple, the governor has studied abroad, and he should have taken the train." ‘

'Train! You mean it's transported by train! Cai Ye finally suddenly thought of a solution that seemed to be a solution, and suddenly called out. The train can accomplish this task almost instantly.

'No, isn't it a waste to transport it by train?' Just for a second, Cai Ye hurriedly denied it.

Yes, it's a bit of a hassle to transport it by train. Zhang Xianmo also nodded: "But if a hundred carriages are used to transport it, does Cai Dudu think it is feasible?" ‘

'Carriage? Cai Ye couldn't help but look at the muddy road again, frowned and said, "No, the road is muddy, the carriage can't go at all, it's okay on a sunny day." ‘

'Road, Cai Dudu's thinking is right, I will give Cai Dudu another hint now, if the roads leading to Guiyang here are as smooth as those in Guiyang City, then can this task still be completed? Zhang's answer is getting closer.

Transportation, all development problems, are transportation problems.

'The road, yes, if the road is smooth, it is entirely possible to complete the task!' Whether it's rainy or sunny,' Cai Ye clapped his hands excitedly, and at the same time, the big road under construction outside Guiyang City suddenly appeared in his mind.

'Got it, Brother Hongzao, I got it. As long as the roads are smooth and the transportation of materials is easy, it can play a role in determining the surname of a war. Cai Ye finally seemed to understand what Zhang Xianmo wanted to express, and he instantly became excited.

He was born in the military, naturally knows that the soldiers are fast, and the importance of material transportation to a war, and now after Zhang Xianmo's point, Cai Ye understands that if there is a war, the flat roads in the countryside can help Guizhou political axe transport grain for the first time, which can almost determine a war situation, if the aquaculture industry is developed well, it is indeed related to national defense and military.

It's just that his understanding is still a little biased.

Zhang Xianmo couldn't help but say: "It's not wrong for the governor to think so, but if that's the case, then as long as a road is built, there is no need to build any farms at all." ‘

It seems that the Governor still does not understand the impact of breeding and basic agriculture on industry, so let me tell the Governor about it. Zhang Xianmo decided not to sell Guanzi, although Cai Ye is smart and can understand everything a little, but his thinking is still a little short, especially in construction, since Chen Liqing and they have revealed that they want to say something substantive to Cai Yi, this is a good opportunity.

When Cai Ye heard this, his face turned a little red, but he did not interrupt Zhang Xianmo's words, but looked at Zhang Xianmo patiently.

Zhang Xianmo did not continue to hide his armpits, and guided Cai Ye in an easier way.

'Governor, you're thinking a little bit later, but you still haven't looked far enough. We will definitely build the road, but we will not contribute to it, but wait for the people in the village to awaken this consciousness themselves. Zhang Xianmo first slightly denied Cai's previous thoughts, and then when Cai's curiosity rose, he pointed to the previous pig farm.

I'm going to use the pig farm as an example, if the governor is the owner of the pig farm, and there are exactly 2,000 pigs to be shipped out and sold, the sooner the pigs are sold, the more money will be made. And I have three ways to transport pigs here, one is to drive the pigs in the usual way, which may take ten days, and when the pigs arrive at the market, two thousand pigs can only be sold for 2,000 silver dollars. Second, it takes two days to transport pigs in horse-drawn carts, and after a hundred horse-drawn carts are transported, they can be sold for 5,000 silver dollars when they arrive at the market, but they have to pay 1,000 silver dollars for freight. Third, with a new way to transport pigs, such as foreign cars and the like, it only takes a few hours, more than a dozen vehicles can be transported, after being transported to the market, the governor can earn 60,000 silver dollars, but you need to pay this freight 5,000 yuan, which way will the governor choose? ‘

Zhang Xianmo gave Cai Yi a specific topic, and after Cai Yi listened carefully, he looked at Zhang Xianmo's expectations: "If you can choose the last one, you will naturally choose the last one." ‘

Of course, Cai Ye is not stupid, it can be said that all people who are not stupid will choose the last one. Zhang Xianmo immediately laughed and said, "I know that the Governor will choose the last one, and I believe that anyone will choose the last one." ‘

'Oh? Minister Zhang's words? Cai immediately realized that Zhang Xianmo's choice might be as simple as it was from time to time.

Yes, although the third method is very good and very profitable, but there is a problem of the development of the productive forces that we cannot ignore. Zhang Xianmo gave a new term.

'Productivity? Cai Ye was really puzzled again.

'Productivity is the present condition of development, and the Governor must be well aware that with our present production conditions, even if a few thousand pigs are produced now, we can only choose to drive slowly or transport them slowly by horse-drawn carts. As for the use of foreign cars, now the level of our domestic industry simply does not reach it. ‘

Back to reality, please look at the current road in Xinnan Village, which can only accommodate horses walking, and it is difficult for two-wheeled cars to drive in. Zhang Xianmo pointed to the muddy road again, and when Cai Ye and the others saw the muddy road, they also returned to reality.

And even if you have a car now, you can't drive it on this road. When that day comes, Xinnan Village must have several necessary conditions, the first is the road, the second is the vehicle, and the third is whether the owner of the pig farm can really pay the freight. ‘

'The Governor should understand some of the problems of the development context by now, needs, everything is a problem of needs. ‘

'If the pig farm is really going to develop well, it needs to sell all the pigs in an hour, there needs to be a smooth road, and there needs to be enough capacity. ‘

'Where there is demand, there is development. ‘

'If there is a problem, solve the problem, and the society will progress. ‘

'Pig farms demand such a large capacity, if Cai Dudu happens to be the owner of the carriage shop, do you want to share the freight? ‘

'If you want to assemble a convoy, does Cai Dudu want to buy a sturdy carriage?' Buy the best horses? Even at the end of the day, would the governor want to buy some vehicles that would only take an hour to complete the task? ‘

And these vehicles, horses, even cars, they are needed, and someone must find a way to make them. People only need to think of a way and use their brains, which can involve almost all aspects of development issues. ‘

"We need good steel to make carriages, so the iron factory is necessary, the iron factory is good, and we can also make guns, as long as there is money to be made, can our craftsmanship in Guizhou not be good?" ‘‘

'Everything, where there is a need, there will be development, which is the driving force of human progress. And only by making every link develop steadily and healthily, so that the society is diversified and hierarchical, will our national strength eventually slowly improve, this point, we are too far behind, fortunately, it is not too late to develop now. Zhang Xianmo's words hit Cai Yi's heart sentence by sentence and hit the hearts of those Yunnan officials who accompanied him.

After Zhang Xianmo's explanation, the development of pig farms can play such a major role in national development, this theory almost destroyed their worldview and caused an incomparable shock to their hearts.

Cai Ye, a man who has worked hard to build a country, has finally completely changed under such a powerful theoretical impact.

Of course, in fact, Guizhou's current approach is very simple, using a large amount of investment and supply in aquaculture and agriculture to stimulate the development of other aspects. As long as we find the right direction and rely on the laws of the market to guide everything, Guizhou will surely become a healthy province for the supply of industrial materials.

Now through Zhang Xianmo's mouth, this development model is brought to Cai Yi, as long as Cai Yi figure it out, Chen Liqing and they have also achieved their goal.

And Cai Ye was also under their deliberate arrangement, slowly changing the idea in his head, until one night, he finally suddenly had the idea of wanting to cooperate with Guizhou, but this idea just got up, and suddenly an event, an invitation interrupted Cai Yi's idea.

On January 25, 1912, Yuan Shikai and various Beiyang generals sent a telegram to the whole country to support the republic.

During Cai's visit to Guizhou, Yuan Shikai and the Alliance's activities of wrestling hands finally ended with negotiations on two sides. The news was sent to the whole country the day before Cai Ye came to Guiyang, and after three or four days of transmission, it finally reached Guizhou and reached Cai Ye's ears.

The moment the news came, Cai Ye received Fan Wei's invitation almost immediately.

Yuan Shikai finally wants to reunify**, this major event is enough for everyone to put down all things and treat them carefully, not to mention the governors of the provinces who are self-reliant, and the unification ** is related to their vital interests. At this time, Chairman Fan Wei was not yet enjoying himself, and the first time he heard the news, he thought of Cai Yi.

Guizhou, a remote province, has always been unable to hold on to the arm, but if it can unite with Yunnan to come to Yang and Fengyin, it is a good way. So Fan Wei wanted to know Cai Yi's thoughts on the unification of ** for the first time.

Of course, Cai Ye also wanted to know Fan Wei's thoughts at this time, and the two almost hit it off, and arranged to meet that night. (To be continued.) )
