Chapter 520: Outer Mongolian Resources
Those who know me, their only "Spring and Autumn"! Those who sin against me are the only ones in "Spring and Autumn"!
Since ancient times, China has paid attention to mercy and does not take charge of the army, and often said that a general will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither, the battlefield is like this, economic construction is not a war, it is a race against time, it is a race against the great powers, this earth is so big, there are only so many industrialized countries that can be supported, either they will be the first to complete it, and then enjoy the results, or it will be completely suppressed, and there will never be a day.
"President, when I see the piles of white bones now, I think of Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Yang of Sui, the Great Wall and the Grand Canal are also piled up with bones, these two emperors have contributed a lot to China, but they didn't get any good evaluation in the history books, I really don't know if we will get such an evaluation after a thousand years!"
Yang Du was full of emotion, and everyone on the side was also related! The Chinese pay attention to the three immortals, that is, virtue, speech, and merit. also attaches the most importance to history's evaluation of himself, and now Yang Du, Jiang Baili and others, as important ministers of rejuvenation in Chinese history, will definitely go down in history, so everyone naturally has to consider the evaluation of future generations, in fact, this is also applicable to Qiao Yu.
"Mr. Huizi, Brother Baili said that I cherish feathers too much, and now I also think very clearly, to be worthy of the country and the nation, and worthy of the wife and children, it is enough to be worthy of my heart, as for the rest, let others comment on it!"
"Hahaha, the president is really open-minded, but think about it, how easy is this standard, it is difficult for a clean official to decide family affairs, I heard that the eldest prince made a storm some time ago?"
Yang Du mentioned Qiao Luan, there was indeed a lot of trouble some time ago, Qiao Luan is now nearly twenty years old, seeing that he has grown from a nursing baby to a young man, as Qiao Yu's legitimate heir, Qiao Luan has received attention from all parties since he was a child, many people want to train him as an heir, his grandfather wanted to train him more than ten years ago, and in the first few years, there were military generals who hoped that Qiao Yu would send his son to the army.
If we want to hold the highest position in a huge country like China, we must have the support of the military. However, Qiao Yu flatly refused. Not long ago, Qiao Luan officially apprenticed to Qi Baishi, began to learn calligraphy and painting, and took the initiative to play art, which disappointed many people who wanted to make Qiao Luan the successor.
There were even many military officers who jointly wrote a letter asking Qiao Yu to pay attention to the education of their children, but Qiao Yu and Lu Wanqing refused all of these requests. Completely respect Qiao Luan's own hobbies.
At this time, it reflects the wisdom of Qiao Yu's original decision, there is only one hostess in the presidential palace, and there are indeed too few troubles, otherwise which mother doesn't want to let her child have a better future, even if Qiao Yu can convince one, can he convince the second. Since ancient times, why the palace has become a place of struggle for power and profit, is not because there are too many people?
There is only one genuine hostess in the current presidential palace, and Lu Wanqing looks at the problem from a completely different angle, she knows very well that Qiao Luan's position is unshakable, and under this premise, it has become much easier for Qiao Yu to discuss with her what issues, and finally the husband and wife reached a common opinion and decided to respect Qiao Luan's opinion.
And Qiao Luan really doesn't have much interest in military and political things. On the contrary, I love things like calligraphy and painting. In addition, he also likes carving very much, so Qiao Yu pushes the boat down the river. Let him apprentice Qi Baishi undoubtedly block those delusions that support the succession of father and son.
Yang Du mentioned this at this time, undoubtedly hoping to get Qiao Yu's personal guarantee.
"Mr. Huizi, I have long said that the lifelong system of the supreme leader, the hereditary system must end from me, but now the country and the world are in a complicated situation, I can't let go easily, and in another twenty years, after all aspects of China are on the right track, that is, when I leave office!"
After years of development, Inner and Outer Mongolia has become the most important pastoral area in China, providing tens of millions of cattle and sheep for the interior every year.
At the national level, how much meat can be produced each year, how much can each person get, and how much meat is composed of meat can often reflect the physical fitness of the people.
The same is true for measuring the strength of the country, the most valuable aspect is the quantity and quality of industrial and agricultural products, which is the true embodiment of national strength, as for the so-called GDP, there is too much water in it, and an exchange rate and a price can seriously distort the real data.
What the Chinese government is currently doing is to build the northwest into a livestock base, providing Chinese with a steady stream of meat, especially beef and mutton, compared with pork, beef and mutton has higher nutritional value, and is more beneficial to a strong body, in the history of the Han and Tang Dynasties, the Central Plains was strong, able to control the grassland, Chinese are not short of cattle and sheep.
After the Song Dynasty, the national strength declined, the control of the grassland was lost, the cattle and sheep lost their source, and the status of pork became higher and higher, and after several years of efforts, the per capita share of meat products in Chinese has increased to 9.5 kilograms.
This data was only two or three kilograms at the end of the Qing Dynasty, and the vast majority of ordinary people did not see a little oil ape all year round, and in the original history, it was not reached until the late seventies, and since then, the Chinese have had a huge improvement in physique, height and weight have increased greatly.
After two years and five years, the share of meat products per capita in Chinese has quadrupled, and the main reason for such great progress is that China's current pastoral area is huge, the integration of Outer Mongolia, and the westward expansion of Xinjiang's border, and the increase in these pastures can provide a large number of livestock.
But more important is the low price of food, in the final analysis, if you want to produce more meat, you have to consume a lot of feed, after the economic crisis in the United States, wheat and corn even have to be burned, milk has to be poured into the river, China took the opportunity to buy a lot of grain at a low price, at the same time, the development of Northeast China and other places, the use of a large number of chemical fertilizers, but also let China's grain production continue to rise, and there is enough feed can be converted into more meat.
Of course, this is only a preliminary result, in Qiao Yu's heart there is a larger agricultural plan, the United States will dominate the world in the future, holding high-tech industry in one hand, agriculture in the other, as long as the international food price is controlled, it can greatly manipulate the world economy, and food weapons are even more effective than aircraft artillery.
Once food is in control, raising food prices can have a significant impact on food-importing countries. Keeping food prices down can reduce the incomes of food-exporting countries. If this weapon is used well, it can hit the economy of some countries in a quiet way, and you must know that small countries are actually very vulnerable.
China's territory is larger than that of the United States, of course, the arable land is still not as good as the United States, but the main grain is also enough to eat, plus China has a large span of north, south, east and west. From temperate to tropical, almost all crops in the world can be produced, and because of the abundance of labor, the variety is much greater than that of the United States, and the control of vast waters, the production of seafood is also very impressive.
If in accordance with the strategic planning. By that time, China will definitely be able to become a super freak in agriculture, and no country can compete, and with a stable vegetable basket, the people's lives will be better and better.
Qiao Yu and his entourage arrived in the evening at Guisui, the capital of the Grassland Province and the largest industrial area in the north, where China's first automatic production line was located. During the Second Five-Year Plan. Guisui has also invested as a key industrial city and established a large number of heavy industrial enterprises. What supports the industrialization of Guisui is the abundant resources of Inner and Outer Mongolia.
In particular, Outer Mongolia is an important source of materials, and the Erdenet copper-molybdenum mine in Outer Mongolia is a world-class huge copper mine, and it is also an open-pit mine, and the mining cost is very low.
China is not a country rich in copper mines, and copper has an important role in the military field, in the first moment of recovering Outer Mongolia, Chinese geologists conducted a detailed investigation of the resources of Outer Mongolia, when the discovery of this copper mine, China is excited, originally China's copper mines are counting on Yunnan, but the reserves are limited, the difficulty of mining is also large, far less than the open-pit mine of Outer Mongolia.
In order to open up this copper mine, China specially built a railway, set up a huge construction team, and specially imported a batch of mining equipment from the United States, in the first year China mined a million tons of copper ore, and the current annual ore mining volume is more than 3.5 million tons, of which the high-quality rate is more than 60 percent, is an out-and-out treasure, in later generations this large mine fell into the control of the Soviet Union, but in this time and space they have no chance to get involved.
Every year, a large number of ores are sent to Guisui, and Guisui has also established China's largest copper production base.
Outer Mongolia's resources are far more than these, the more important is gold, Outer Mongolia has one of the world's largest gold mining areas, with an annual output of more than 50 tons of sand gold, and a considerable amount of rock gold, the annual output can also exceed 10 tons, if you increase equipment investment, the output can also increase.
This is not a small amount, China originally obtained the tsarist gold, but only 500 tons, not comparable to the ten years of production in Mongolia, now is still the gold standard prevailing, gold is real wealth, with gold reserves, the country's currency can be stable.
In addition, the number of coal mines and iron ore in Outer Mongolia is also considerable, with coal reserves of nearly 10 billion tons, and the taste of iron ore is also very high, with an average of more than 50 percent, which is better than most iron mines in the mainland.
Oil is still being searched, and high-quality oil has been drilled in the Tamtsg Basin, and it is believed that there will be a major breakthrough soon, which is expected to become an important energy base in the north.
What's even more exciting is that in the process of mining coal mines, geologists also discovered uranium ore, with a total reserve estimated at 1.4 million tons, and an open-pit mine area for mining.
In addition to these, Outer Mongolia may also have rare earth minerals that have great value in the future, in general, Outer Mongolia has almost all major mineral deposits, especially has not been developed, the value is unimaginable, with the deepening of China's development of Outer Mongolia, there are more and more surprises, and Moscow, which has missed out on Outer Mongolia, is depressed, and the greedy polar bear can only sigh in vain.
