Chapter Ninety-Three: Post-War Reconstruction
At the end of December, the post-war presidential elections were held in country T, and Max was unsurprisingly elected as the new president of country T.
Of course, the former president Tuag, who lives in exile in the United States, inevitably said that this election was not legitimate.
But that doesn't change the fact that Max became president.
In his first presidential speech after his election as president, Max mentioned the losses caused by the war to country T.
That's a staggering number.
More than 3 million people from T died directly in the war.
Millions of people in the T country died two months after the war due to hunger and epidemic.
In other words, a war that reduced the population of country t by more than half.
As for the destruction of the property of the common people by the war, it is even greater.
Most of the people in country T who are still alive are starving, and if there is no relief from the outside world, many more people may die in the next six months.
Those people need food, they need clothing, they need houses.
At present, the donations received by country T are mainly from various donations from the Bactria system, although this problem has been effectively alleviated, but country T still needs a lot of relief.
The losses caused by the war are so great, here Max naturally criticizes the initiators of the war, Tuag and Kumi, and praises the Chinese people who donated a lot of materials to help the people of country T:
"Now it is obvious who is our enemy and who is our friend. While condemning the Tuag, a sinner in the T-country, we must not forget to be grateful to our Chinese friends, a truly peace-loving and great nation. ”
Max said another set of data: "As of yesterday, according to the data from the Immigration Bureau, we have accepted a total of 4.58 million immigration applications after the war, of which 1.3 million have immigrated to become citizens of country T, and the vast majority of them are Chinese. What I need to explain here is that they did not come to plunder our T country, but to build our T country. In the future, they are also T people, and they are also our brothers and sisters, and we will welcome their arrival. ”
The tide of Chinese immigration to country T has begun.
By March 2023 at the latest, the number of Chinese in country T will exceed that of natives in country T.
Of course, this does not mean that country T has become a colony of China because of this, country T is still country T, a sovereign and independent country, but the leader many years later may be the face of China.
Max's choice cannot be said to be wrong.
Without the large number of Chinese immigrants to fill the manpower gap in country T, country T may not have been able to recover after that war.
If it weren't for the timely donation of a large amount of materials and money to the provisional government of country T, the total population of country t would have to be reduced by at least one million.
A large number of people have been filled, and post-war reconstruction is slowly unfolding, and peace has slowly returned to country T.
Most of the mood of the masses is very stable, but there are some new immigrants who are not so sure.
It was some people who hated the Kuomintang, and they heard that there were votes here, and it was very easy to immigrate here, so they paid the money and immigrated over.
Then I came and found out that it was only a futures after five years with voting rights, and it would only take eight years to use it.
There is no high-speed rail, no transportation system extending in all directions, and there is no network information in many places.
Although the prices here are very low, the housing prices are also very low, so you won't be unable to buy a house for the rest of your life.
But who would want to buy a house in this hellish place?
Don't look at the many people on the Huaxia Internet who complain that they can't buy a house after working for a lifetime, in fact, they really just want to buy a house, and there is no such problem, the problem is that the houses in people's eyes are houses in economically developed areas.
If you really want to give him a house in a backward county and township, many people don't take it seriously.
Every immigrant gets a hectare of arable land for free, but those who hate the Kuomintang who vent on the Internet don't come here to farm.
What did you come here for?
Oh, remember, for the air of freedom, for the right to hold the ballot.
But now it seems that having those things is not so good, and life seems to be a little worse.
Many people collapsed, felt bloody, and wanted to return to Huaxia.
However, Huaxia is not a country of immigration, and Huaxia's nationality is notoriously difficult, and it is not that they cannot return to Huaxia, but they must apply for a tourist visa to go back.
It's embarrassing.
Utan is a good place that has been well developed, but there is no shortage of people there, and the land is limited, so there will be no arrangements for immigrants to go there.
The immigrants are arranged to go to those very backward places.
Those who hated the Kuomintang, who had no country to return to and could not farm, could only wipe their tears and sell the land given to them by the government, and then go to Utan Prefecture to look for jobs.
At this time, they began to miss their homeland fondly.
But it's a great place for real farmers.
There is so much land!
One hectare of arable land per person is freehold land given by the government, and there are several hectares of land that the family has moved over.
These lands belong to them and do not have to pay any taxes.
In addition to that, they can rent land from the government for farming at a very low price.
Although there is no subsidy for farming here, and you have to rent the land, there is a lot of land!
With so much land, it is not very difficult to get rich through hard work.
The Great Xia system has a lot of subsidies for Chinese farmers to immigrate to country T, which is also to make country T more stable.
No farming, no stability.
The more backward the place, the more so.
In order to reassure those farmers from China, the Daxia Department also set up a farmer's trading company, promising to buy all the grain they grow at the international market price.
Fertilizers, agricultural machinery, etc., are also provided to those farmers in the form of interest-free loans, and the repayment period is three to five years.
The Bactria Department played the role of the government in the Chinese people who immigrated to country T.
The person in charge of these things is Mr. Xia's grandson, Xia Zhenheng, who married Max's daughter.
The major shareholders of the Great Xia Department donated billions of dollars to set up a "Chinese Immigration Development Foundation in Country T" to help Chinese people who immigrated to Country T, and Xia Zhenheng is the chairman of this foundation.
Although it is only a non-governmental organization, if you think about how many Chinese people have immigrated to country T, you can know how huge this institution is.
Clear-eyed people know that this is the Great Xia Department paving the way for Xia Zhenheng to enter politics in the future!

ps: Here are some of the structures for country T, which is to prepare for the next new book in the future, if the next book is written in the city, the background is probably in country T, so it can avoid the risk of sealing the book, so it may be a little wordy to write.
In addition, the next few chapters of this volume have nothing to do with the storyline, and are purely personal goods, so if you don't like it, you can skip over and read the next volume, and it doesn't matter.
