Chapter 1615 Investigation One
Ever since I decided to stay in Mexico, Angie and Chanlad's inspection trip was doomed to be uneasy.
First of all, when he learned that his daughter was going to inspect Mexico under the rule of the Aurora Legion, Dad Lawrence, who was far away in New York, did not object, but he was worried about his daughter's safety.
David Lawrence not only asked the Legion to absolutely ensure Angie's safety, but also sent a guard force of more than 100 people to come. Zhou Qingfeng actually agreed to such an excessive thing.
But every time she travels, more than a hundred people are surrounded. No matter where Anji walks, he looks like a monkey in a zoo. As long as she appears, others will stop the work in her hands and look at her, and she doesn't even have the chance to talk to ordinary people.
Without direct communication, there is naturally no question of investigation. After the bad experience lasted for two or three days, Anji strongly demanded that the security personnel who followed him be reduced.
However, the security purging in Mexico has not been completed yet, and both cities and villages are full of various thugs. A beggar who seems to have no ability to attack may attack wildly because of extreme hunger, let alone other things.
So Zhou Qingfeng simply opened up his administrative system to let Anji understand how the Aurora Legion operates, so that it is safer at least.
In Anji's opinion, this was too boring. She went through the entire process of her father's founding of the New York Brotherhood. She was not familiar with the administrative system, but was also influenced by it, without any freshness. In particular, Zhou Qingfeng could not open up key departments, but sent her to the Ministry of Agriculture.
"It's really broken, small and a little messy." Standing in front of the office building of the Ministry of Agriculture, An Ji, who has always been a beautiful girl, has no good feelings for this department. In her eyes, the administrative department is extremely boring.
Since Zhou Qingfeng asked all departments of the Legion to work in a centralized manner to improve administrative efficiency, the Ministry of Agriculture could only find a few buildings with ordinary appearances as office locations near the Legion headquarters Locust Ridge.
Minister of Agriculture Deng Chengwen has become an old farmer, and does not have requirements for the appearance of his subordinates like Miss Fox, so the people coming and going in and out of the Ministry of Agriculture do not look so beautiful and handsome, one looks more rustic than the other.
"It would be nice to have a small force that can be of this scale." A white man in military uniform followed Angie, with a tone of sarcasm on the surface. "Miss Angie, you cannot have too high expectations for Mexico, the forces that rule this have always been poor."
Angie asked to reduce the security personnel around her, so the guard captain Eugene followed with seven or eight subordinates. In the eyes of this white man, Victor Hugo, who ruled Mexico, seemed to be an indigenous chief, but he was still not as capable as a white man.
Eugene had heard of various magical rumors about the Aurora Legion, but the Aurora Legion he imagined should be the high-level people living in a magnificent mansion, raising a large number of troops with fangs and claws everywhere to martial law. The people at the bottom were unable to fill their stomachs and did not cover their bodies, waiting for the day of redemption.
Now that the top leaders of the Aurora Legion are not very good, Eugene even believes that the entire legion must be a bunch of poor people. In his opinion, wealth is naturally enriched in the hands of those in power. Now, seeing that the people in power are so poor, the bottom is naturally worse.
"What can the poor have?" Eugene thought of the poor people wandering around the cities around New York. Those who can't do anything and can only make a living by relying on relief are garbage in the eyes of the top leaders.
The old Chandra did not comment on the dilapidated Ministry of Agriculture building, the simple and rustic Ministry of Agriculture staff, and he asked Angie to walk in front and enter the Legion Ministry of Agriculture.
Minister of Agriculture Deng Chengwen was so busy that he had to come out to greet Anji when he came. Not only did he have a deep background, but he was also a distinguished guest sent by the commander of the army to inspect. He had to take half an hour to receive him.
"Hello, Minister Deng. I am Angelina Lawrence, you can call me Anji." The youthful and beautiful Anji is no different from the celebrity before the Cataclysm. She hung a camera around her neck like a reporter, and took a photo of Deng Chengwen when she met.
"Hello Miss Lawrence." Deng Chengwen shook hands on his own initiative and asked Anji and his group to sit down in the office. Anji seemed generous, but he thought to himself with restraint: The boss is qualified to call you Anji, and I will call Anji as well, just to be a dying person.
When the guest and host sat down, Anji asked straight to the point: "Mr. Minister, I heard that you have recently raised a large number of agricultural tools and equipment to restart agricultural production in Mexico. Is this your current main job?"
"Oh, we are indeed distributing some agricultural tools in large quantities..." Deng Chengwen was suddenly interrupted when he said this.
Eugene, who was following Angie, deliberately whispered: "It's just shovels, shovels, even hammers, nails, etc. Most of them are handmade tools, and a small number of mechanical equipment is also very old and broken. It can be imagined that the production efficiency here will be very low."
After Eugene said that, she deliberately raised her head and waited for Deng Chengwen to refute him. After all, agricultural production in North America is currently returning to a state of mechanized large-scale production, and both are incomparable in terms of scale and efficiency.
However, Deng Chengwen just smiled and nodded, admitting frankly that the farm tools distributed by the legion are very simple.
Anji glanced at Eugene beside him, but continued to smile at Deng Chengwen quietly and said, "Mr. Minister, you continue to say. I am very interested in the agricultural development of the Legion. I believe that Victor's subordinates are real practitioners."
Deng Chengwen didn't care. "Our department's main task is to clean up Mexican farmland and agricultural facilities that have been abandoned for more than two years, collect and repair various agricultural machinery and tools, and solve the supply problems of fertilizers and pesticides. Of course, the most important thing is to train agricultural technicians and build an agricultural service network."
Anji's heart suddenly moved. This sounded the same as the Brotherhood's agricultural policy. But it seemed a little different.
Chandra, an economist who has been silent, asked, "How do you train agricultural technicians?"
"Open a school and short-term training." Deng Chengwen said.
Eugene immediately smiled and said, "Entertainment in a country full of illiteracy? Or transfer all the few educated people in the city to the countryside? Believe me, this is not feasible. The real way is to use the market to solve the problem and allow the market to freely allocate resources."
When it comes to market, Eugene seems to be an expert. However, after a few words, he found that Angie and Chandra were staring at him. He could only lower his tone and said, "Sorry, Miss Lawrence, I didn't mean to offend me.
But before I came, your father specifically told me to remind you more during the inspection. He was worried that you were deceived. He was especially worried that you were too young to distinguish right from wrong and treated other people's nonsense as the truth. You should know that there are many scammers now."
Angie narrowed her beautiful big eyes slightly and said with a little anger: "Thank you Mr. Eugene for your concern, but I am already an adult and I am not a child who knows nothing."
After stuffing a soft nail to Eugene, Angie turned to look at Deng Chengwen. She asked in a puzzled tone: "Mr. Minister, please be honest. I understand that all policies are very good when they are introduced, but to make the policy smoothly implement them depends on the person.
Our Brotherhood policies are in various troubles when implementing them. For example, you just said you want to literacy, which is probably not an easy task.”
Literacy is not just not easy, but extremely difficult. It is so difficult that most countries in the world are everywhere. It is so difficult that even the United States has a lot of illiterate people, regardless of blacks and whites.
However, Deng Chengwen only said one thing about this issue, "This matter is indeed not easy. We mainly rely on administrative orders to promote it."
