The Military Service Cooperative is one of the benefits launched by Qin Zhiyuan in Lanfang only for military personnel.
In fact, the military profession does not have a good reputation among the Chinese. A good man who is not a soldier and who is good at making nails is a true reflection of this situation.
When facing soldiers, many people would respectfully address them as "junye boss" to their faces, and there would be many who would turn around and yell at Qiu Ba.
As a soldier, Qin Zhiyuan naturally cannot allow this situation to spread.
Therefore, in the newly introduced military service law, Lanfang clearly stipulates that all men of school age must serve in the army for two years when they reach adulthood. Anyone who evades military service in any form will be severely punished.
At the same time, the Military Service Law also stipulates that military personnel should enjoy a certain social status in society and should have priority in everything from dining to entertainment. No one should make groundless accusations or set up obstacles. Anyone who violates the law will also be severely punished.
Improving the social status of military personnel through legal means is only one aspect. To truly make it deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, more welfare benefits are needed to make military personnel truly a respected and envied profession. Only in this way can we truly
Improve the social status of military personnel.
So the Military Service Society came into being.
The Military Service Agency is a special department under the Logistics Department that only provides services to military personnel and their families. The service items range from daily shopping to buying a house and even social coordination.
In military service societies, soldiers or their families can purchase daily necessities at prices close to factory prices, ranging from matches and soap to watches and washing machines.
These products were purchased by Qin Zhiyuan from Europe and the United States. Now it is natural to provide certain financial subsidies to ensure the operation. When Lanfang has its own factory in the future, the financial subsidies will decrease year by year, even reaching the level of revenue and expenditure.
balance.
For the Chinese, or for any nation in the world, real money and silver are the visible benefits, and anything else is a bit pale.
Sure enough, when the Military Service Co., Ltd. opened, the social status of military personnel immediately rose to a higher level. Many soldiers or military family members hauled large and small bags of things from the Military Service Co., Ltd. every day, some of which were for their own use, and more
It was given to the neighbors.
If you can buy cheap things, of course there will be piggybacking. Qin Zhiyuan is well aware of this, but is not prepared to interfere.
Being able to make neighbors ask for help with shopping is in itself a sign of improved social status.
Interactions between Chinese people are very strict. If you owe a favor, you always have to pay it back. If soldiers or their families help their neighbors buy things, their neighbors will definitely reciprocate. This can be regarded as an indirect promotion of neighborliness.
Harmonious relationships are a good thing for building a more harmonious social order.
In the current Lanfang, whether it is Kalimantan, Suweilasi, or Papua, all the original villages and tribes have been bulldozed, large communities are being built one after another, and new cities are rising one after another. Almost
There are new changes every day, and city landmarks are updated almost every month.
The wooden structure houses that once shined in Corsica have become popular again. Timber companies have launched wooden structure houses that are stronger and more convenient. Four workers can build a house for a family of six in just one day.
of houses.
In almost ten days, a village of 100 households will be completed.
Of course, only the exterior structure of the house has been completed, and the household facilities inside still need to be built by the residents themselves.
But this is surprising enough.
Many immigrants from the Republic of China would be led to such a house as soon as they got off the ship, and then someone would announce that this would be their future home.
Blue roof, white exterior wall, translucent glass windows, clean front corridor.
This is simply a dream home.
Many Chinese people were so excited that they stayed up all night. Thinking of their precarious life in the Republic of China, they looked out the window at the one hundred acres of land that had been allocated to them, and then looked at the children rolling around happily in the room. They felt a sense of belonging.
born.
Home, this is our home
A home worth all we have to protect
Then there is the large-scale infrastructure construction, which includes roads, railways, terminals, airports, breakwaters, etc.
All of these projects are long-term projects and will not yield results for a while, but they must be done in a planned manner so that the level of social development can be truly improved.
Fortunately, there are many volcanoes in Lanfang, and volcanic stone is a better building material than cement, and it is almost inexhaustible, so it is most suitable for infrastructure construction.
Infrastructure construction requires a lot of manpower. Although Lanfang has a lot of construction machinery, on more islands, infrastructure construction still relies on manpower, so the aboriginal people of Lanfang came in handy.
In fact, just before the Foreign Legion arrived in Lanfang, the local aborigines in Lanfang lived in an extremely undisciplined and self-sufficient lifestyle.
Lanfang is located in the subtropical zone, where the four seasons are not distinct throughout the year, and there is almost no winter. The local plants are lush, and various unique fruit trees such as coconuts and bananas are everywhere. If you don’t have high requirements for life, it is really easy to be satisfied.
Many local people live in such a state.
Because the weather won't be cold, many locals don't need too many clothes. Many people even bare their breasts all day long to fully get close to nature.
Because the fruit trees are dense, the locals hardly need to work. When they are hungry, they climb to the trees to pick a few fruits to satisfy their hunger. When they are thirsty, they also go to the trees to pick a few fruits to quench their thirst. They can live comfortably without any labor at all.
But in the eyes of the hard-working Chinese, this kind of life is unimaginable. Guarding the fertile land without making progress is simply a waste of natural resources.
As a result, the lives of the Chinese are getting better and better, while the lives of the aborigines are still the same as they were thousands of years ago.
The key is that these lazy aborigines are also extremely jealous. The key is that these jealous aborigines yearn for a better life but are unwilling to create it with their own hands.
As a result, various contradictions arise.
After the Foreign Legion arrived in Lanfang, they carried out a large-scale land nationalization policy.
The 100 acres of land allocated to each new immigrant household only has the right to cultivate it, but not the right to transfer it. They can cultivate it as they please, but they are not allowed to sell it at will or abandon it at will.
Abandon
How can this be
The Chinese people's desire for land is unlimited. They would rather die of exhaustion than have their land abandoned.
As a result, all kinds of livestock entered ordinary farmers one after another, and even large machinery began to enter state-owned farms.
That's right, it's a state-owned farm.
Long before Lanfang was founded, Huang Bohan, Lanfang's first prime minister, was a large local plantation owner in Lanfang. Huang Bohan owned hundreds of thousands of acres of land and had more than 100,000 workers working for Huang Bohan.
It was Huang Bohan who proposed the nationalization of land in Lanfang. In order to show his support, Huang Bohan donated all his hundreds of thousands of acres of land to establish state-owned farms to set an example for the large plantations in Lanfang.
Now Huang Bohan no longer needs to rely on farming to accumulate wealth. On Muna Island, a private shipyard owned by Huang Bohan is also under construction. It will become Huang Bohan's new industry, providing new profits for Huang Bohan and Lanfang.
growth point.
Just as Huang Bohan began to transform, Huang Jinsheng, Guo Shenglong and Mao were also transforming. Huang Jinsheng was originally a mining tycoon, but now the mines were naturally nationalized. Huang Jinsheng immediately opened several daily necessities factories, including the simplest soap factory, as well as technology
Washing machine factory with higher content.
The patent for the washing machine nominally belongs to Long Chengyuan, but in fact it should belong to Qin Zhiyuan. Huang Jinsheng's ability to cooperate with Long Chengyuan is naturally Qin Zhiyuan's reward for Huang Jinsheng.
It is good to serve the country wholeheartedly, but patriots should receive greater rewards, otherwise these patriotic actions will become rootless and will deteriorate when all enthusiasm dissipates.
Qin Zhiyuan wants to use these cooperation projects to allow local plantation owners in Lanfang to shift their business focus from agriculture to industry. Agriculture is dominated by state-owned farms, supplemented by farmers' household production contracts.
In this way, the state-led heavy industry plus the state-owned and privately owned light industry, plus the state-led and privately assisted agriculture, can basically ensure the steady development of Lanfang's social economy.
Regarding the state-led heavy industry, in addition to the shipyard, Lanfang is also currently engaged in construction around the oil fields in Daqing. The oil economy alone can greatly promote the economic development around Daqing.
The oil industry alone is not enough. Currently in Lanfang, the airport, automobile factory, motorcycle factory and tractor factory are also under intensive construction. Engineers recruited from France and Germany are responsible for the guidance of these factories. They have all signed contracts with Lanfang.
With a work contract of at least ten years, you don’t have to worry about them quitting the job midway.
These airports and automobile factories are all large-scale heavy industries led by the state, including supporting engine factories.
These are mixed military and civilian enterprises, and the products they produce can be used for both military and civilian purposes.
In order to promote the development of the aviation industry, Qin Zhiyuan plans to vigorously promote aviation clubs in Lanfang and hide pilots among the people. This will make it easier to launch troops and avoid the disadvantages of improvising.
Tractor factories are even more necessary. There are many state-owned farms in Lanfang, and these farms require large machinery. Tractors can alleviate the problem of labor shortage.
And if there is a war, the tractor factory can be easily converted into a tank factory, which is more conducive to violent troops.
While the airport and automobile factory were being built, a large steelmaking plant was being built on Sumba Island, which is the island closest to Australia. If iron ore is mined from Australia, it can be transported directly to Sumba Island.
for refining.
It seems that the only missing piece of the puzzle in Lanfang's construction is the mine.
It is also the most important piece of the puzzle.
