Xie Tian oversaw the resumption of aviation fuel production in Shanghai, and at the same time, Xie Tian had to control Barton to go to the production base of China North Industries Group in the suburbs of Yanjing, which was the first city to recover from the disaster, where the water and electricity supply has been restored, and Xie Tian's thermal coal from Jiangxi has also eased the pressure on Yanjing's power supply, and now all units of the thermal power plant in the east of Yanjing have been fully opened, and the power workers have successfully completed the power supply to the arsenal.

The production base of the arsenal is at the foot of the mountain on the outskirts of Yanjing, where there are no human settlements, and the production base is built very secretly, but to Xie Tian's surprise, the area here is huge, and under those inconspicuous factories, there are different production lines, among them, the first thing these experts want to open is the production line of bullets.

The production of bullets is relatively simple, and the production is basically completed automatically on the production line, but after these experts checked the raw materials in the arsenal, they put forward a serious problem: "The quantity of copper-clad steel is insufficient, and the production of warheads and shells is inseparable from copper-clad steel, this raw material must be solved, in addition, there is the problem of smokeless gunpowder, and the raw materials required for pickling"

Xie Tian was a little stunned, and said embarrassedly: "The questions are really one after another!" ”

"Yes," the expert sighed and said, "At present, according to the raw materials left here, we can still produce a batch of ammunition, but if we do not get the supply of raw materials, then the production of ammunition will become a luxury." ”

Xie Tian smacked his lips, nodded and said, "Okay, you first find a way to resume production here as soon as possible, use the materials here, and then find a way to solve the problem of other materials." ”

After coming back, Xie Tian was a little disappointed in his heart, now the industry is all linked to each other, and now all the industries in the country are almost in a state of paralysis, and it is definitely a great problem to start restoring the industry for a while, for example, the bullets that Xie Tian wants to make, the material of copper-clad steel is needed, and a special smelter is needed to complete, that is to say, Xie Tian wants to find a way to restore a smelter, and gunpowder, there are many kinds of chemical raw materials needed, Xie Tian may have to restore several different chemical plants to finally achieve the goal of producing gunpowder, if Xie Tian wants to build an airplane

Thank God dare not think about it, the destruction of human civilization by the zombie virus is really devastating, not only industry, production, even the population, I don't know how many years it will take to recover, seven million people, even if it is optimistic that the hidden survivors in other cities, add up to 10 million, if you want to restore to the scale of 1.4 billion people, it will take thousands of years, the Chinese population at the end of the Qin Dynasty was 20 million, and in the 21st century, it will reach 1.4 billion

Because of the shortage of population, because of the shortage of professionals, the development of industry is really a great problem, which makes Xie Tian very excited, as if he has been poured a bucket of cold water.

It takes at least 20 years for a generation to grow, and now in the situation in Yanjing, most of the survivors have not been able to completely solve the problem of eating and drinking, so what can we talk about developing the next generation? If it goes on like this, the population is estimated to enter a state of negative growth, and the big country has regressed to this point all of a sudden, which makes Xie Tian feel a lot of emotion in his heart, but then he thought of India, thinking that Ah San now doesn't even have a foothold, and his mood is much better, and redeveloping society is an extremely long process, and he may not see the day when he succeeds, but if he lays a good foundation for future generations, then sooner or later he will develop in the future.

In the past, Xie Tian always controlled Barton to consult with Chairman Han about anything, but this time, Xie Tian was ready to hold a meeting by himself, a meeting to discuss where China will go in the future and how it should develop in an all-round way.

Chairman Han suddenly received the news that Patton was going to hold a meeting in the Great Hall of the People and invited himself to join the meeting, and his face showed a smile of relief.

This meeting was held in the largest conference hall of the Great Hall of the People, and Chairman Patton, Chairman Han, and other members of the Provisional Military Commission sat on the rostrum, and the former leaders of other fields such as agriculture, medical care, coal, metals, postal services, railways, aviation, road administration, police, and the National Development and Reform Commission, as long as they were still alive in Yanjing, were invited over, and the entire conference room was brightly lit and full of people, and everyone knew that Commander Qin, the number two person in the Provisional Military Commission, had made such a big battle. There must have been something extremely important to announce, but everyone was speculating about what it would be like to have so many people present.

There were more than 1,800 people present, and after Xie Tian and Chairman Han sat on the rostrum, they adjusted the microphone and made sure that everything was fine, and then Xie Tian said: "Comrades, everyone be quiet. ”

For the current establishment Barton, others will never dare to have any disobedience, when even one by one quieted down and waited intently for Barton's next step.

"I have called you to a meeting today to talk about our future development and direction."

Everyone was a little surprised, they thought that today would be the moment for the authorities to announce a certain decision, but they didn't expect that as soon as Barton opened his mouth, he would actually put the topic on the future development.

"As we all know, we are a large country with a large population, a big agricultural country, after so many years of development, we have also become a big industrial country, a big country in production, but due to the outbreak of the zombie virus, our population, from 1.4 billion, has regressed to the current known population of less than 8 million, and in the face of China's 9.6 million square kilometers such a big mess, our 8 million people, I don't know what year and month it will take to really gain a foothold in such a vast land."

Everyone nodded in agreement, and Xie Tian said: "At present, everyone is running for survival, I want to know, as far as you know, are there any new babies born around you in the near future?" ”

Most people are silent, and a new baby is born? Hehe, most people nowadays can't guarantee absolute food and clothing, and they may not be able to support them if they have children, in case the mother has no milk, no milk powder, and no medicine, how can a child be pulled up in such a harsh environment?

Xie Tian's tone suddenly became very serious: "If no new life is born, or only a few new life appears, then our eight million people, twenty years later, may only be six million left, another twenty years, maybe not even four million, if another fifty years, I think, not even two million, right?" ”

No one has ever been in the mood to think about fertility in such a post-apocalyptic environment, but when thanksgiving said this, everyone discovered this great crisis, yes! Without new life, what is the current generation fighting so hard for? Who will perpetuate this nation? Who will inherit this little foothold that they have bought with a lot of their lives?

"We must encourage survivors to marry and have children, not only to encourage, but also to give adequate material security, I personally have an idea, I am here today, I want to talk to you, and then we raise our hands to vote."

Xie Tian said, cleared his throat, and said: "I suggest that the Civil Affairs Bureau start tomorrow, do its best to resume work in the shortest possible time, all adult survivors over the age of 18 in the country have the right to marry and have children, as long as both parties are willing, you can go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a marriage certificate, after receiving the marriage certificate, if the woman is confirmed to be pregnant, from the third month of pregnancy, do not need to participate in any work, food and materials are solved by the state, and give the most scientific and best solution, In the third month after the birth of the child, the woman can continue to work, and she can still receive food subsidies from the state every day until the child reaches the age of one, and there is no longer family planning, no matter how many births, the state will support them! ”

As soon as Xie Tian's words fell, everyone present raised a hand high, fertility is the foundation of the continuation of the current race, no one will object to the state's subsidies for pregnant women and newborns, and now Xie Tian raised this issue, which is responsible for the continuation of the entire race.

Chairman Han glanced at Barton with great appreciation, although he did not speak, but the pride in his eyes was very obvious, and he suddenly realized that his son-in-law had evolved from a ruler to a ruler.

"For this." Xie Tian continued: "We want to start medical services as soon as possible, all medical workers must be mobilized, participate in medical work, and we must give medical workers high-quality food rations, among them, obstetrics and gynecology medical personnel must be all in place, I plan to open two fertility centers in Yanjing and Shanghai, free of charge to all pregnant women in childbirth need a series of medical services, this, do you have any comments?" ”

It's still all hands raised.

Xie Tian nodded with satisfaction, and continued: "When it comes to children, we have to talk about education, we currently have very few professionals, as far as the power talents are concerned, at present, only three power plants have been opened, and the power personnel are already stretched, and they have to start training a group of laymen to relieve the pressure of lack of talents, this is a typical practical education, and my idea is to carry out practical education among the whole people, all young people between the ages of 15 and 20, can receive a variety of different practical education, and thenIn this way, we first use compulsory education to develop a child's mind and let him have the foundation for learning, and then use practical education to educate the child into a really useful talent. ”

Xie Tian said a little impassionedly, couldn't help but increase the tone and volume, and said seriously: "If our country wants to rise again, if it wants to rise at the fastest speed, it must absorb the lessons accumulated in the previous decades, and we must regard education as our first cause, and it is definitely a core cause that cannot have any profit intentions!" Compulsory education is not only to ensure that every child receives absolute compulsory education, but also to ensure that each of them receives fair educational opportunities and educational environment. Only in this way can we ensure that the knowledge of our generation can be well transmitted to our next generation! ”

"Our next step is to screen teacher talents among all the survivors, temporarily take Yenching as the center, and establish a school with a comprehensive surname in the site of Yenching University, from primary school to junior high school to high school, as the base of China's compulsory education, all teachers are supported by the state, and all children are also supported by the state, education is a hundred-year plan, if any moth dares to harm in it, I will pull him to [***] square and shoot him!"

The applause lasted for a long time, these people are here today, and their thinking has finally begun to undergo a qualitative change, before, they were full of thinking about survival, and now, they are full of thinking, all they think about is development!

"There is also practical education, at present, we need a large number of professional talents in several fields, petrochemical, metallurgy, manufacturing, medical care, textiles, agriculture, etc., these talents, all need to be trained by the only experts at present, so the next step, we will use the site of Tsinghua University as a practical education base, and welcome everyone who has a skill and has practical application value for today's development, come to teach!"

"In addition to childbirth and education, the police department should also be re-established, to maintain order among the survivors, to ensure social security, and the public security department, these departments must be activated." As he spoke, Xie Tian took off the pistol from Patton's waist, slapped it on the table, and shouted angrily: "But I have a word in front of everyone, now, it is no longer the previous era when corrupt officials were rampant and officials protected each other, anyone who dares to bend the law for bribes and twist the law for personal gain in his own position, then don't blame the gun in my hand for being merciless!" Since the country is to be re-established and developed, then some bad roots must be cut off from the roots! No matter how small the population base is now, I will kill those rats as soon as possible! ”

At this time, some people's expressions began to change a little, thank God knows, in addition to professional talents, most of the other officials were corrupt officials before, and they did not do anything less, seeing Patton's stern attitude, and then thinking that the current country is under the control of him and Chairman Han, no one can kill anyone, so their expressions are a little pale.

Xie Tian also said unabashedly: "Many of you, who used their positions to accumulate a large number of talents for themselves, you sent your wives and children abroad, and then you were relieved to boldly search for people's fat and ointment in the country, now what?" You've paid the price! The black money you have earned has become a pile of waste paper, and the whereabouts of your relatives who have been sent abroad are now unknown, but this is not enough to make up for your sins! ”

The expressions of those people were not only pale at this moment, but more, they were still frightened, for fear that Barton would come to settle accounts with them at this time, after all, Barton was in the military system, and now he was a military ruler, and the former officials protected each other, and almost nothing had anything to do with the army, and none of them doubted what Barton said, and if Barton wanted to kill any of them, he could do it almost immediately.

At this time, Xie Tian snorted coldly and said: "I won't pursue the crimes you committed before, perhaps, because in order to carry out a certain work as soon as possible, one of you will be reactivated, but I only remind you of one thing, only one point: if anyone dares to play small actions under my nose, even if you are just greedy for a pound of rice, I will reward you with a bullet!" I'm Qin someone who does what he says! Never break your word! ”

At this moment, those experts and scholars all cheered, the military is not the same when in power, the wrist is too hard, and there is no room for these officials, such a temporary political axe, they can trust it more.

Xie Tian nodded with satisfaction, motioned for everyone to be quiet again, and said: "In addition, what I want to say is the system of economic reform, it is undeniable that we are now the grain standard, and under the social situation of the grain standard, food is the only proof of purchasing power, so I am ready to implement a new monetary policy in the country for the grain standard!" ”

After that, Xie Tian told everyone in detail about the rice ticket strategy he used in Fengcheng, which was verified by a small scale of implementation, and it has been proved that the monetary policy of rice ticket is indeed more suitable for the issuer to manage materials and control the current single labor economy.

When Xie Tian said this idea, no one expressed any objections, even Chairman Han couldn't help but appreciate, said: "If Fengcheng's rice ticket policy can be implemented nationwide, then our economic system will have the first start, so that we may be able to take this opportunity to encourage the development of commerce in the future, after all, it is impossible for the country to return to the planned economy, the reason why this is the case at present is because it has just started, and all the conditions are not yet available, but sooner or later it will still transition to a market economy. In this way, it will be more in line with the law of economic development. ”
