Chapter 709: A Plan to Make Money (2)
The flood water goes all the way south along the river into the sea, and Heyang Prefecture is regarded as the end of the downstream, and the harm caused by the flood is not as good as that of the middle and upper reaches, and the loss is still small, so it has become a place for displaced people to flee in a concentrated manner. Zhao Lin said in a low tone, "All the way I went, all I saw were dead people, and it was not uncommon to eat them, and the leftover human bones were thrown away on the side of the road at will. ”
According to the description of Lin, Qi Ke couldn't help but think of the scene he saw all the way south last year, endured a disgusting retching, took over the conversation, and quickly changed the topic.
"Compared with the state capital in the middle and upper reaches, the loss of Heyang Prefecture is small, but for the local people, the loss is not small at all, just look at the prices of seeds, grains, fruit trees, seedlings, poultry and livestock related to agriculture, and you can know that the price of summer grain that has just been listed is still high, that is, affected by last year's floods, the grain production in the entire state is insufficient, and this year will not return to the level of previous years, and it depends on the situation next year. In a natural disaster, it takes two or three years just for the population and land to recover. ”
Qi Ke didn't mean to scare people at all, she has been engaged in farming for so long, whether it is a political textbook or practical experience, there is always a little basic economic common sense, the price fluctuates around the value, and the market price reflects everything.
"In other words, when the autumn grain comes down, the price of grain may still not come down?" This mention of food immediately drew the attention of the men present, and they no longer mentioned the matter of their background.
"You can hold out hope, after all, Heyang Prefecture is relatively the least affected, but the damage caused by the large number of displaced people in the state has caused to the production and life of the people in the state, and I think it is unlikely that it will be fully recovered this year."
Qi Ke has been in the agricultural business for almost a year, and the things that are traded most with the cooperative businessmen are all related to agriculture, as long as there are businessmen who come to the village, they will bring news from all over the county in the east, she just doesn't go far does not mean that she closes her eyes and listens, there are so many full foreshadowing in front, she is now saying this with a high degree of credibility, not without purpose.
"When the displaced people enter Heyang Prefecture, like locusts crossing the border, they strip away the crops that have not yet grown in other farmlands, and the leaves and grass roots are stuffed into their mouths, and the trees that have been stripped of their bark die one by one, and the mountains are bald. The corners of Qi Ke's mouth twitched when he thought of this possibility, "The damage caused by the disorderly displaced people is not much less than that of natural disasters. ”
The Bai family army went all the way south from the north, and after walking through the drought-stricken land and then to the flood-stricken land, the hellish situation in the world had long been numb in his heart, and even the immature children would no longer be frightened and cry, understanding that Qi Ke did not say a word of nonsense, and at the same time he was thinking in his heart, if the grain output in recent years has not returned to the normal level of previous years, how much should the military expenditure be allocated to the purchase of grain.
"The displaced people still have to be vigorously managed, fortunately, there are not many displaced people in Donglin County, and poor places have the benefits of poor places."
"That's the benefit, there are fewer people who have fled here."
"It's a good thing that there are fewer civilians in a military area."
"That's right."
During the chat, the inn finally brought food, the maids carried the food box into the fish, opened the food box in turn on the side of the table, took out the plates inside and placed them on the round table, all in duplicate, two pots of sweet soup in the middle, snacks divided the table into two, what you want to eat directly in front of you, so as not to stand up and reach the opposite side.
