Chapter 126: New Industries (3)
The car was driving on the township road, and the mountains and forests on both sides were shrouded in clouds and mist.
After a light rain, the air is a little cooler.
While driving, Fang Xinwu hummed an old song accompanied by the melody:
“…… Every string of tears is accompanied by every dream...... Slip away before you know it...... Inadvertently turned to this year in this circle...... I just feel like I'm going through the ...... in this lap."
The foliage in the mountains is luxuriant, and the breeze and drizzle in April.
Around the corner, the terrain suddenly opens up.
In front of me is a large mountain valley plain, where the rice fields have been planted with delicate first crops, and the rivers flowing down from the mountains have nourished this land.
Across the expanded road bridge, you will find a town halfway up the mountain.
Fang Xinwu glanced at the mountain behind the town, a large gap had been dug up at this time, and it was obvious that the local terrain was being transformed.
Construction vehicles purchased from Dongfeng Group and Sany Heavy Industry are busy excavating, handling, flattening and other work.
The pace of construction in Shan State is indeed somewhat unexpectedly fast.
Terrain like the town of Muangli, which is very common in the Shan highlands, is actually a helpless choice.
The main reason is that the valley plain has high temperature, high humidity, and many mosquitoes, and is prone to flash floods in the rainy season, so when the current settlement is located, it can only be located in the middle of the mountain near the river.
But this comes with other drawbacks, such as inaccessibility, difficulty in getting water, landslides and mudslides.
In order to solve these problems, the Aoba Group promoted the merger of villages and towns in the Shan State Plateau, strengthened the construction of infrastructure, and cut mountains and valleys.
Once the transformation is completed, the group's usable high platform area will be about seven times that of the current level.
Midday.
Fang Xinwu and his entourage dined at the Aoba fast food restaurant in the town.
"Brother Xinwu, this Aoba Group's business is really extensive, and even fast food restaurants are available." Fang Xinxin, who came out of the shadows, said curiously.
Maung Heshui, who could understand Mandarin, replied in Mandarin with a strong accent: "Their company is very large, as long as they can make money, they do it, and the Aoba Group has industries in clothing, food, housing and transportation here." ”
"Honsavady doesn't care?" Although Fang Xinxin has been hiding at home in the past few years, she still knows some things through the Internet.
For example, some time ago, the domestic turmoil of the Internet giant's vegetable selling incident triggered an extremely heated discussion.
Fang Xinwu said with a wry smile: "Their boss has a very close relationship with all parties in Honsavady, Qingye Group is one of the three large groups that Hongsavady focuses on supporting, and Shan State is the territory of Qingye Group. ”
"Isn't this a chaebol?"
"Yes, and a very powerful trust group."
However, Maung Heshui, a native of Honsavady, was unimpressed: "Whether it is a trust or a chaebol, it has little to do with us ordinary people, and even with large enterprises such as the Aoba Group, many people have a stable income." ”
Fang Xinwu was noncommittal about this, but he didn't say anything about the evil crimes of the Aoba Group.
The main thing is the mentality of Maung Heshui, which actually reflects the inner thoughts of most locals.
After decades of warlord warfare, the poor people at the bottom of Honsavady, which has long been struggling to make a living, do not have high demands, so they want to live in peace and stability.
Therefore, many locals do not have any ill feelings towards the Aoba Group, which continues to devour the assets of Honsavady, and are even grateful.
The inner thoughts of these poor people are very simple, they can eat a mouthful of food, they do not have to face the chaotic social environment, and they are satisfied with a stable job.
As for the lofty ideals, the rise of Honsawady, and the liberal democracy, they don't really care.
For the poor, who are in danger of living and having enough to eat, those things are too far away.
Fang Xinwu is not an angry young man who has just come out of society, some things are just reproductions, he is not qualified to talk about the greed of the Aoba Group, nor is he qualified to despise the short-sightedness of ordinary people in Honsawady.
As Maslow's hierarchy of needs says.
The need for survival is always the first need.
Without a material foundation, everything is just a castle in the air.
There is a lot of traffic in fast food restaurants.
Many of them are employees of the Aoba Group, and while they eat, they are smiling and discussing topics such as wages, houses, and women.
"Did you hear that?"
"What?"
"The head office intends to develop the whole of Shan State into a special agricultural area."
"What is a special agricultural area?"
"It's a town that only grows a few kinds of agricultural products, and I heard that Mengli Town has been arranged as a rice, lemon and grapefruit planting area, and these three crops will be planted in the future."
"Really?"
"Of course it's true, my friend from the next village works for an agricultural company."
"Then let's go over there in the Shan Eastern Region?"
"It seems to be all planned for sugarcane, oil palm, soybeans, rice and tobacco."
A group of construction workers were talking enthusiastically about some of the actions of the Aoba Group.
Fang Xinwu silently wrote down these things on the side.
The plan to develop characteristic agriculture is a manifestation of the strong control of the Aoba Group, and the purpose is to avoid vicious internal competition.
After all, many farmers are blind, and when they see which agricultural products in the market are high in price and sell quickly, they are easy to blindly follow.
And this often comes with risks.
Cyclical market fluctuations can sometimes be very fatal for farmers.
For example, Huaguo's tangerine industry is a typical example.
The blind expansion of planting area in various places will eventually lead to oversupply and can only enter a cruel involution.
At the same time, the channels in rural areas are very simple, and it is difficult for farmers to fight against channel providers.
The strength of the Aoba Group in Honsavady is strong enough, so it naturally does not need to worry about doing things, and directly allocates the industry and production scale to each town, and requires that only the specified agricultural products can be planted.
From production, transportation, processing, and sales, all aspects are controlled by the Aoba Group's Aoba Agricultural Company, which ensures the stability of market prices.
In order to analyze domestic and global agricultural production and price fluctuations, Aoba Agriculture has even set up a secret global agricultural product analysis office, which is specially equipped with a supercomputer with a computing power of 1 million megabits per second.
Fang Xinwu, who has lived in Honsawady for many years, can even feel that kind of sudden change in the world.
One of the important reasons for this sudden change is that prices in Honsavady are gradually declining at this time.
Whether it is rice, sugar, fruits, and seafood produced in Honsavady, or imported palm oil, household appliances, household goods, and motorcycles, the prices are gradually decreasing.
This is due to the stability of the currency value of the gold dollar and the superior products of the Aoba Group, which have been exchanged for a large number of materials.
For example, palm oil, in order to ensure that there is enough gold dollars, Malaysia and Java have to sell a batch of palm oil at a low price to the Aoba Group.
Together with the soybeans harvested in the Shan Dong region this year, a large amount of edible oil and soybean meal has been obtained, giving Honsavady its own edible oil industry.
The agricultural potential of Honsavady is indeed enormous.
For the first time, Fang Xinwu realized that the agricultural potential here, in a strong system, could be developed to this extent.
The innate conditions of agriculture here are so good that as long as there is no internal chaos here in the future, it is only a matter of time before Honsavady becomes the breadbasket of Asia.
