980 There is no such thing as a free lunch

From Qin Zhiyuan's standpoint, Qin Zhiyuan had enough reasons to refuse those Persians to re-enter the two river valleys. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Although this was once their home.

Julie and Misha, as Qin Zhiyuan's family, still have a lot of weight in Qin Zhiyuan's heart, that is, Julie and Mixia can change Qin Zhiyuan's mind when they go out together, and don't even think about it.

After getting Qin Zhiyuan's promise, Julie really cried with joy, jumped into Qin Zhiyuan's arms, and kissed Qin Zhiyuan on the face: "Honey, I love you-"

Well, if this sentence is said in the bedroom, maybe the next thing will be thunder, and Lan Fang may have an extra heir. It was a bit out of place in the living room, and it was because of those Persians who had abandoned Lafang, which made Qin Zhiyuan feel a little uncomfortable.

"I love you too, and don't be too happy, it was easy for them to leave, but now it's not so easy for them to come back - you know, the Western Province has already made a land distribution, so it is impossible for them to get back their former land, and this must be determined first." Qin Zhiyuan must talk about ugliness in the front, otherwise this may cause serious social problems.

The contradiction between the foreign population and the local population is an issue that must be paid attention to at all times.

For the Western Province, in fact, all the Lanfang people were foreigners, and those Persians who fled were natives. However, the creation always likes to make people, and for the current western provinces, the Lanfang people are the rightful owners of this land, and those Persians who have fled are outsiders.

Maybe there will be some kind of balance.

"Of course, since they gave up their property in the first place, don't think about getting it back now, but dear, you're not going to watch those people starve to death, are you? If they become Lanfang nationals again, the Western Province should also allocate land to them-" Julie hugged Qin Zhiyuan's neck a little coquettishly, and her body was still a little twisting from side to side.

Alas, Julie is sitting on Qin Zhiyuan's lap, this action is a bit annoying.

Qin Zhiyuan didn't have any other thoughts, Qin Zhiyuan's mind was on those refugees, it was very simple to reintegrate those refugees into the Western Province, but if you want to give them a stable life, you need to work harder, this is not just a promise, Qin Zhiyuan is not a simple and rude British and French colonizer, if those refugees don't want to go back to the Western Province, Qin Zhiyuan doesn't care about their life or death, but as long as those refugees become Lanfang nationals, Qin Zhiyuan will be responsible for them.

"It will definitely be allocated, but don't think about the fertile land, which has an owner, or a national farm is about to be established, and there is no spare land for them." Qin Zhiyuan didn't want those refugees to get Lanfang's benefits easily, Qin Zhiyuan wanted to let those refugees know that Lanfang's benefits were not so cheap.

The national farm is an important part of the Lan Fang government, Lan Fang does not levy agricultural taxes, but the Lan Fang government also has public officials and members of the army to support, and the food that these people need is the output of the state farm. When Lanfang was first established, Huang Bohan and Guo Shenglong, the local tyrants of Lanfang donated all their plantations to the Lanfang government in order to support the construction of Lanfang, which was the first batch of national farms of the Lanfang government.

After Lan Fang conquered the Northern Territory, the national farms were finally carried forward, and although there are now nearly 10 million immigrants in the entire Northern Territory, the number of national farms is still very large, occupying nearly half of the arable land in the Northern Territory.

In Qin Zhiyuan's plan, all parts of Lanfang should at least be self-sufficient in agricultural products, and although the two river basins are located in a desert area, there is still a lot of land available for cultivation, and nearly half of these lands are now planned as national farms.

"My dear, you won't be so cruel, if you give those desert areas to those refugees, what's the difference between that and not giving them land-" Julie immediately softened, Julie is the queen of Lanfang, and Julie also has the responsibility to take care of Lanfang's people.

Although the western province occupies the two river basins, there is actually a large area of desert in the territory, since Qin Zhiyuan is not ready to distribute the arable land to those refugees who will become Lanfang nationality in the future, then he can only allocate their land with serious desertification, or directly the desert and the Gobi.

In this era, people generally had the impression that the desert and the Gobi would not produce anything, so Julie believed that the land allocated to the desert and the Gobi for those refugees was equivalent to sentencing those refugees to death.

"That's right, it's the desert area, don't worry, the desert area can also support people-" Qin Zhiyuan grabbed Julie's mouth before Julie spoke, of course Qin Zhiyuan has his own decision, which is also the only condition that Qin Zhiyuan can accept those refugees again: "The Western Province is now promoting afforestation, and the task of ordinary people is to plant ten trees per person per year, and for these refugees, because they have no land and no job, planting trees is their only job, and each of them has to plant them every year-let's tentatively set it at one hundred." The government provides the saplings and gives them basic livelihood guarantees, and all they have to do is make sure that the saplings can survive. ā€

The Imperial University of Lanfang and the associated biological research institute have already started research on the cultivation of date saplings, and geologists from the Imperial University have already arrived in Djibouti by plane to find a location in Djibouti where they can drill wells.

The afforestation work in the western province is progressing in an orderly manner, because Qin Zhiyuan directly identified the appropriate tree species, so it saves researchers a lot of trouble, and it only takes three months at most for the first batch of jujube saplings to be cultivated, and then the afforestation work can be carried out in full swing.

"And what about after planting these 100 trees?" Julie knew that Qin Zhiyuan must have something to follow.

"Keep planting, half of these trees belong to them, and their future source of livelihood is these date trees, as for what kind of life they can live, it depends on how much they can plant." Qin Zhiyuan's abacus played well.

The jujube tree is an economic tree species, which can not only provide fruits for human beings, but also has a high economic value.

In fact, once large-scale afforestation is promoted, it is not difficult to have a forest, and there is an idiom in Chinese called "three trees into a forest", which is a bit exaggerated, but it can also reflect the importance of scale.

In Qin Zhiyuan's plan, the Lanfang government will provide ten saplings for everyone in the western province for free, which must be cultivated to survive, if not, then the individual will continue to buy the saplings until ten saplings survive.

Of course, if anyone wants to have more, the Lanfang government will not refuse, and the government will provide seedlings for all the people of the western province at a low price.

This policy has already been announced, and there are already people in the western provinces who are ready to make a living from it, and they will be the first doers of this era to carry out "desertification transformation".

"So will half of the trees they plant always go to the government?" Julie is still a little worried, if that's the case, it is tantamount to artificially dividing three, six, nine and so on, which is not in line with Lan Fang's basic policy.

"Of course not, only the first batch is, when the first batch of saplings all survive, they can really obtain Lanfang nationality, and then they will automatically have national treatment, and the trees they planted with their own hands are their private property." Qin Zhiyuan is quite kind, once those refugees obtain Lanfang nationality, Qin Zhiyuan is not prepared to treat them differently.

"Honey, you're so nice." Julie smiled happily and gave her a fragrant kiss again.

"It seems that you two are usually very idle, and you are actually in the mood to pay attention to these things." Only then did Qin Zhiyuan think about this issue.

In fact, Julie and Misha both have jobs, Julie is suspended in the Lanfang Women's Federation, Misha is still Qin Zhiyuan's personal secretary, of course, Misha's most important task now is to take care of the children.

"It's rare to come to the Western Province and you have to go everywhere - Mrs. Lindsay invited us both to Aleppo, so we met the refugees on the border." Julie is not worried that Qin Zhiyuan will find something for the two of them to do, it is a big deal to hang another position, and she doesn't have to clock in at work anyway.

Lindsay is the wife of the French governor in Syria, Auguste Swinburn, France has a need to reconcile with Lan Fang, and Julie and Mischa both have French backgrounds, so for the French, they will not let go of any opportunity to deepen their friendship with Julie and Michael.

"Aleppo - the French are really stubborn." Qin Zhiyuan still sighed a little when he thought of Aleppo in the 21st century.

After the establishment of the Western Province, Lan Fang carried out a thorough sinicization of the Western Province, including the place name, erasing any traces of the original land.

This may be an inconvenience to the locals in the short term, but in the long run, it is necessary.

The Persian nation also has a long history, such a nation, the centripetal force of the inherent culture can not be ignored, Lan Fang wants to make the western province long-term stability, must establish the dominant position of Han culture.

While Lan Fang was sinicizing the western provinces, the French did nothing, Aleppo is still Aleppo, the people there still use Persian, and for that land, the French are still outsiders, and sooner or later they will be driven away.

And for the Western Province, the Lanfang people are now the masters.
