Chapter 416: What to do if there is too much food

This year is the fifth year of Daming Dewu, and it is also the year of the decisive battle at the end of the "First Five-Year Plan of Daming".

Of course, because Zhu Fugui basically led the natives to drill ravines and fight guerrillas in the first year of Dewu, the so-called first five-year plan was actually only four years.

However, from the current point of view, the first five-year plan formulated by Dewu in the second year is still too conservative.

For example, in the "First Five-Year Plan of the Ming Dynasty", it is stipulated that the Ming Dynasty will build more than 1.5 million acres of agricultural reclamation area by the end of December of the fifth year of Dewu to ensure food self-sufficiency.

But so far, Daming has completed 1.3 million mu of Xinjin military reclamation area, 700,000 mu of New Yellow River agricultural reclamation area, 1.5 million mu of New Pearl River (Colorado River) agricultural reclamation area, and 11 million mu of Central Great Plains agricultural reclamation area.

Combined with the scattered cultivated land cultivated by the common people, a total of 27 million mu of cultivated land is cultivated.

Even if they are all planted with rice and corn, the total crop output of Daming now exceeds 18 million tons, with an average of 5,000 catties per capita!

Ten times the biological needs of 500 pounds per person per year.

The extra grain is mainly used to make wine, feed pigs and cattle, and be transformed into higher-value meat, eggs, milk and non-staple food.

The surplus grain was used to export to Zuo and Li in exchange for population and other resources, or to the southern government in exchange for watermelons, cotton, and sugar cane.

Of course, the Archduchy of the Aztecs, in extreme poverty, was also in need of relief.

The food-for-cocoa programme is progressing steadily.

But basically, there is still a lot of affluence.

Zhu Fugui could only tearfully sell it to the platform cheaply.

ยท

Therefore, in order to solve the problem of grain overcapacity, Zhu Fugui still attaches great importance to the arrival of Hu Xueyan.

Hu Xueyan is probably the most famous red-roofed merchant in modern Chinese history.

The story of how he rose to prominence, how happy he was, and how he finally collapsed overnight, and how he was dismissed and his family was dismissed has always been talked about.

The controversy between Li and Zuo does not exist today, at least not in a white-hot state.

Sheng Huaixuan and Hu Xueyan, who were the money bags of Li Hongzhang and Zuo Zongtang respectively, could also push their cups and ask each other for each other in the dispute over the trade of the Ming Dynasty.

It remains to be seen whether the curtain will come to an end of the business legend of the late Qing generation.

However, in Zhu Fugui's view, Hu Xueyan's defeat was caused by Zuo Zongtang's old age and loss of power in history, although it was due to human waste, but at least it also means that the relationship between scholars and merchants in China has remained stable for thousands of years.

According to the high emotional intelligence, capital has never been able to completely hijack power.

The saying of low emotional intelligence is that the poor do not fight with the rich, and the rich do not fight with the officials.

Of course, the comment "profiteers make profits, and the sick people beware the country" is of course very biased, but it cannot be said that there is no truth in it.

It is really hard to say which is more likely to degenerate capital or bureaucracy.

At least from Zhu Fugui's own standpoint, he is naturally wary of big capital.

Of course, if you ask who is the biggest capitalist in the Ming Dynasty today......

That is naturally Zhu Banguo, Zhu Fugui is expensive.

In the Tian (E) number meeting room on the second floor of the Xingxing Terrace, Zhu Fugui met with the delegation of the Duke of Chu represented by Hu Xueyan.

Speaking of which, this is the first time Zhu Fugui has seen a living historical celebrity of the late Qing Dynasty.

Before, whether it was Li Hongzhang or Xing Zhen'er, Zhu Fugui was just a divine friend.

Even if it is relaxed to the entire modern history, Zhu Fugui really saw the real person and was Ito Hirofumi who turned back from Morishita.

Shoot Lincoln or something......

It's not more reliable than shooting the first generation with a shuriken eight hundred miles away.

Judging from Zhu Fugui's limited experience, these historical celebrities may not have much talent.

Take Hirobumi Ito, for example, it is indeed a very easy top secretary to use, but it is not yet up to the level of Tomota Noshiri's close demon.

There is a saying in later generations.

Why are many big bosses particularly superstitious, not only for gods and puppets, but also for themselves?

For example, there is a successful real estate developer who has a night emergency room because of heart pain.

The doctor judged that the condition was serious and needed to be hospitalized immediately, otherwise there was a risk of sudden death.

But he confidently said that he had seen through the doctor's trick of cheating money, and posted on the circle of friends: "The money hasn't been spent yet, the matter hasn't been done, the daughter is still young, the wife is still young, and God won't accept it." โ€

A look of arrogance that my life is up to me.

As a result, his obituary was sent out four days later.

The reason for this is that there is a saying that in fact, the success of many successful people is just a superposition of countless accidental factors.

Many times, they don't even know why they're successful.

In the end, it can only be attributed to being special and having a "destiny".

According to Zhu Fugui's view, Hong Xiuquan's brother, who is still bouncing in Nanjing, is the best among them, and he is terminally ill.

Of course, Hu Xueyan is not the kind of guy who succeeded in a daze, but his success is also deeply bound to this era and the old bureaucratic system.

Therefore, Zhu Fugui had no intention of poaching with a hoe, so naturally he did not give him any courtesy to greet him upside down and sleep on his feet.

Instead, it adopted the most popular form of red-top businessmen like him - red envelopes and kickbacks.

Sheng Huaixuan controls the channels for raising victims north of the Yangtze River and in the Yellow Flood Area, while Hu Xueyan controls the relevant channels in Fujian, southern Jiangxi, and even Guangdong.

At present, the total population of Daming's North American headquarters has reached 6.6 million, and the monthly population growth has remained at about 9.5%.

This is a speed that has been calculated and tested in practice.

If it is too fast, it will lead to a decrease in the quality of naturalized education and a decrease in social stability.

If a year ago, there were still Fuguang accents everywhere in the Ming Dynasty, and now people with Jiangbei official accents have accounted for the majority.

And just like Shenzhen in later generations, because everyone is not indigenous, they are all Ming people, but there is no too obvious regional discrimination, let alone the so-called "xenophobia".

However, "9.5% population growth per month", this is actually a compound interest model, as the base rolls bigger and bigger, the monthly demand for immigrants will also increase.

To put it simply, it is to maintain this rate, and by the end of this year, the total population of Daming North America will reach 19.61 million.

It will be 58.28 million by the end of next year.

The year after that, it will reach a staggering 173.16 million.

Of course, this is completely impossible.

Today, the total population of China is 430 million.

This is equivalent to moving one-third of China's population to North America.

Neither realistic nor necessary.

Because the population of North America itself will also reproduce naturally.

By 1981, the Chinese population exceeded 1 billion.

Doubling the population in 32 years.

Daming's per capita food, land, energy, and other resources are much richer, and it is not difficult to double in 20 years.

In other words, as long as there are 50 million Chinese immigrants in North America in the Ming Dynasty, the total population will reach 3~400 million before Zhu Fugui passes away with a smile.

The population of the headquarters of Daming Shenzhou (excluding Japan, Korea, Nanyang and other territories) is about 7~800 million.

That's a very desirable number.

Therefore, completing 50 million immigrants in 3 years is a goal that Daming must complete, and it is also the best way to solve grain overcapacity.

Thereupon.

Zhu Fugui drank the red robe of Wuyi Mountain, which was tested to be non-toxic and brought by Hu Xueyan, and said with a smile: "Hu Aiqing, I heard that the land of Fujian and Guangzhou is not very peaceful now?" โ€

Hu Xueyan hurriedly said: "Long live Hui, the marshal of Chu State will supervise Fujian and Zhejiang, and pacify the Cantonese bandits...... Blinded by the demon and the ...... The Taiping Army has been pacified for many days, although it is not said that the swords and guns are put into storage and the horses are put in Nanshan, but it cannot be called unpeaceful! โ€

"I don't mean the Taiping Army......"

Zhu Fugui shook his head, and after taking a sip of the big red-robed cow that cost dozens of taels of silver and one tael, Zhu Fugui leaned over and said, "I heard that the Turks of Guangdong and Fujian have millions of dead and wounded, and blood has flowed thousands of miles. โ€

"Hu Xueyan, you said there was such a thing!"

In the end, Zhu Fugui almost got up on the case.
