Hua Zhenxing understood as soon as he heard it, thinking of the holographic sand table showing the future picture just now, he stretched out two fingers to draw a ribbon area along the banks of the river, and drew a circle in the valley upstream, which is where the reservoir appeared.

Mo Shangtong didn't say anything more about what the hero saw this time, and simply pressed the remote control, and an area surrounded by red lines appeared on the sand table, and at the height of the west side was an irregular circle, with a diameter of more than ten kilometers; Below is a strip of area, with an overall width of about five kilometers along both sides of the Beisuo River to the mouth of the sea, with a length of nearly thirty kilometers.

Hua Zhenxing: "This is most of the area? ”

Mo Shangtong: "There are markings, you can see for yourself, about 300 square kilometers." ”

According to this plan, it is necessary to buy 300 square kilometers of land in the entire river basin just for the sake of 80,000 mu or more than 50 square kilometers of land. But if you think about it in the future, if you want to build reservoirs, river channels, and natural wetlands, it seems that it is only suitable to start construction on your own land, and buying them all will save you a lot of trouble.

Hua Zhenxing: "But just now there is an alternative plan to change the river channel, if the river course is really changed, the Beisuo River will go north out of this area." ”

Ke Mengchao: "Let's talk about the future things in the future, first do what you can do in front of you, all of this is the first stage of the plan around the reclamation of the field, and make some preparations for the future." You must know that the Beisuo River does not exist today, so you can buy this piece of land and then try to create that river. ”

Mo Shangtong: "According to estimates, a total of 260 kilometers of barbed wire are needed at present. The work on the mountains is more troublesome, so you can do the work on the plains first. ”

The barbed wire fence on the sand table has been marked, and all the 300 square kilometers of land that are connected into the whole area are enclosed, and then the nine fields are enclosed separately, some of which are overlapping, and the amount of work can be saved.

Hua Zhenxing suddenly discovered something and reminded: "In this way, the north-south traffic will be cut off." ”

Yang Tehong asked rhetorically: "Is there anyone settled in the north?" ”

Hua Zhenxing: "There is really no one to settle down, and a few people will go there to graze in the dry season, but they will not stay there when the rainy season comes." ”

It was possible for them to buy such a large area, precisely because the river does not exist today, and it is a wasteland in the dry season, which is neither cultivated nor settled, because everyone knows that when the rainy season comes, the flood will drown everything. In the eyes of the locals, no one wants that place for nothing.

As for the future picture shown in the sand table, it is only the result of supercomputing simulation, which requires a lot of investment to succeed in the transformation, and it is not certain whether it will succeed.

Hua Zhenxing pointed to another position and said, "I still have a question, at the end of the heavy rainy season and the beginning of the light rainy season, this is the migration route of those wild animals. ”

Yang Tehong: "What can you do to solve it?" ”

Hua Zhenxing: "I can only think of a stupid way now." When the animal migration comes, open a gap in the barbed wire on both sides and seal it again. It's only twice a year, it's not that it can't be done. ”

Mo Shangtong: "A stupid way is also a way." ”

Hua Zhenxing: "I have another suggestion. ”

Ke Mengchao: "Don't say suggestions, just say ideas, your ideas." ”

Hua Zhenxing: "If the famine is an immediate thing, then for the time being, we will not consider the situation after the transformation of the Beisuo River. The 80,000 acres of land we have just circled will not be submerged when the flood is at its greatest, and it is also the most suitable area for large-scale intensive cultivation.

However, after the heavy rainy season, the flood waters will recede, and almost all places will be exposed, and many places will not be flooded during the light rainy season. This area is larger, at least 100,000 acres, and according to the habits of the locals, we directly sowed the seeds. According to the climate here, the harvest can be harvested in about half a year. ”

Just for 80,000 acres of land, they plan to buy 300 square kilometers of land, in fact, for the future. The large area of the upper valley is a planned reservoir, about 150 square kilometers, and that place is not suitable for growing things, so I will not consider it for now.

But after the flood recedes, there are still large areas that are vacant, and the small rainy season will not be flooded, and the soil is also very fertile due to the impact of the floods over the years. Therefore, Hua Zhenxing suggested that according to the habits of the locals, the seeds should be sown and harvested in the wild. Although it is far less than the yield per mu of artificial reclamation, it can also harvest a large batch.

Mo Shangtong asked rhetorically: "This idea is not bad, it is not effortless!" Crops like cassava, winged beans and the like can definitely grow, but how are you going to harvest them? ”

Hua Zhenxing: "Hire local people to harvest, the artificial reclamation area is surrounded by barbed wire, as long as you don't enter the 80,000 acres of farmland, they can dig cassava, pick beans in the wild planting area, and they can harvest peanuts...... If there is a famine, it will leave a way for many people to live. ”

Yang Tehong: "Oh, how to stay alive, whoever digs it out will let whoever takes it away?" ”

Hua Zhenxing shook his head and said: "Of course we can't give it away for nothing, the harvest is ours, we can pay according to the amount, or convert it into other rewards." ”

Mo Shangtong nodded slightly: "This plan is very good, what other plans do you have?" ”

Hua Zhenxing frowned and thought: "It's not a plan, but there is an important question, what to do with those harvested cassava?" Such a large production volume...... A large processing plant is also needed. ”

Yang Tehong gave a thumbs up and said, "Not bad, really good, you have learned to deduce!" ”

Hua Zhenxing: "What kind of deduction is this?" Since you have planted so many cassava, you should think of it. ”

Yang Tehong: "What do you think? Being able to make various assumptions based on what has not yet happened and being able to predict different outcomes based on assumptions is called deduction! You think this is normal, but many people here just can't imagine that not only do they not have the ability, but they don't have this kind of consciousness at all, and they can't even dream like this. ”

Cassava can grow in relatively poor and arid land, if the climate, irrigation, fertilization and other conditions are sufficient, the yield per mu will even reach more than 10,000 catties, and the usual yield per mu can also reach about two tons. The edible part of cassava is mainly rhizomes, but it is not resistant to storage and will spoil after three days of digging in the non-Soharbour climate.

This thing can't be eaten raw because it's toxic. The local method of processing is to first peel off the skin, grind the white tubers and water to precipitate, and dry or steam the tapioca flour to detoxify the grain. The process is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it is handled by hand at home, so that too much surplus reserve can be obtained.

For example, when a man goes to the field to dig cassava, and when he goes home, the housewife comes to deal with it, and after a day of operation, he can basically only get one or two days of cassava flour that is enough for the family to eat. In the case of large-scale cultivation, subsequent processing and storage must be considered.

Mo Shangtong groaned: "Of course you are going to open a processing plant, but you don't seem to know much about today's industrial level, and this processing scale is not a large-scale processing plant."

The harvest can be done in phases and batches, and the harvest can be done all year round in this place anyway. According to the current maximum estimated output, the annual processing capacity of 500,000 tons is sufficient, and the daily processing capacity is tentatively guaranteed to be 2,000 tons. ”

Hua Zhenxing: "Where are the machines and workers?" ”

Mo Shangtong smiled: "Workers can be trained, just choose from the straw uppers." Machines sound incredible here, but they're a piece of cake for the industrialized countries. An agricultural machinery institute in the east has specially developed a cassava processing machine, as well as a variety of supporting special food processing machines, and I have already engaged in small-scale trial production here.

Even if you plant cassava now, the first harvest will not be until half a year later, when it is too late to place an order. What needs to be prepared here is the factory and storage warehouse, as well as a safe production environment. So in the next six months, to clear a 'clean' area in the port of Africa, you should know what I mean. ”

Yang Tehong beckoned, and Hua Zhenxing sensed that a cabinet door in the kitchen opened, and something flew out of it. The door also opened automatically, and the thing turned around in the air and flew into the hands of Old Man Yang, which was actually a roll of noodles. Look at the packaging and the ordinary dried noodles made in the East are no different, one pound, round barrel-shaped.

Old man Yang once showed off all kinds of tricks in front of Hua Zhenxing, but this trick of fetching things in the air was still the first time to use it, just to get a roll of noodles from the kitchen, perhaps he was stimulated by Teacher Ding.

Seeing Hua Zhenxing stunned there, he handed over the noodles and said, "Look at it, what kind of raw material is this?" ”

Hua Zhenxing tore a small opening in the wrapping paper, sniffed, and said with his divine sense: "The main material is tapioca flour, and there are some soybean flour and other added ingredients......

Old man Yang: "Our family has never eaten this kind of noodles before, this is what your Uncle Mo just brought." Cassava can be used not only to process noodles, but also to make steamed buns, bread, and rice balls. Noodles are best for long-term storage, as long as they are not damp and do not grow insects for two years. Have you ever drunk bubble tea, the 'pearls' in it are processed from tapioca flour. ”

Hua Zhenxing: "Bubble tea? I've heard of it, but I've never drunk it, and I don't sell it in Philoport. ”

Ke Mengchao: "This poor child. ”

Yang Tehong: "What's so pitiful about this? It's not tasty, I don't like it anyway. Xiaohua, you can check how to make bubble tea, anyway, there is both tea and milk at home, make it yourself, remember to be delicious! Uncle Mo just brought a big bag of tapioca flour, you can think about it again, what better snacks can you make with that thing? ”

Ke Mengchao: "Get down to business!" ”

Yang Tehong: "Then I'll get down to business, clean up a clean area in the name of the big head gang, and open a few big stores, which can be series chains, I have all the names in mind, non-Sogang Department Store, non-Sogang grain and oil, non-Suogang supply and marketing cooperative, non-Sogang Wujiaohua or something."

As for the source of goods, on the one hand, it is imported from the eastern country, and on the other hand, it is our own things, such as cassava noodles, which are the main products of grain and oil in Feisuogang...... Cassava flour is also an industrial raw material, and even cassava leaves can be silaged to detoxify as feed. ”

Hua Zhenxing's mind suddenly flashed with inspiration, and he quickly interjected: "I still have an idea!" If we do open these stores, we can issue shopping vouchers with denominations. In the future, if locals are hired to harvest crops in the fields, they will be suspicious of using such shopping vouchers as a reward, and they will be able to go to the store to exchange them for what they need, such as cassava noodles. ”

Ke Mengchao couldn't help but stretch out his hand and pat him on the shoulder: "Yes, yes, Lao Yang praised you very right just now, this is deduction, it involves the field of circulation and finance." Not only organizes production, sales and distribution, but also issues tokens, you have certainly never seen shopping coupons, how can you think of this trick? ”

What's the matter today, the three old men took turns to praise him, Hua Zhenxing was about to be embarrassed by the praise, and replied with a slight bowed head: "I haven't seen it, but I've heard of it." ”

Mo Shangtong also asked with interest: "It's another thing to hear about it, what do you think?" ”

Hua Zhenxing: "As soon as you come, the business is bigger, and it may be difficult to cash flow. Second, according to what you just said, the currency of the country of several miles will almost certainly depreciate by then.

More importantly, if you give money directly to those people, you are afraid that they will not buy what they need, but will turn around and go to gambling, mouthing and drugs. Many people here have a little money to enjoy it, even regardless of whether there is food tomorrow or what is lacking at home. ”

Ke Mengchao sighed: "What you think you need is different from their concept. Even if you pay for a shopping voucher and they can get something in the store, they may sell it back and exchange it for money to gamble on. ”

Hua Zhenxing's expression darkened: "We can only try to do this, and no one can save the dead by looking for them by ourselves." ”

Mo Shangtong asked, "Why would someone look for death?" ”

Hua Zhenxing: "I can't say it in a few words, you must know better than me." All I can think of is for those people to develop a habit through personal experience, so they can't just give things for nothing, otherwise not only will we not be able to afford it, but it will ruin a group of people who still have hope. ”
