"What an eye-opener for God!" Deng Chengwen took the lead with a smile, followed by hundreds of managers from the Ministry of Agriculture of Legion. Everyone was laughing non-stop and in a happy mood at this moment!
The so-called "unstable without agriculture" means that without food in hand, there is no energy to fart. After Zhou Qingfeng occupied Havana, he tried his best to develop agriculture. However, at the beginning, the weather was so cold that people would freeze to death. Agriculture was just a waste of time.
joke.
It wasn't until Zhou Qingfeng went to Merida, Mexico, to open up the transportation channels for coal and oil. With the fuel available, human activities could be guaranteed, and it became possible to build greenhouses.
Since he entered the "Aurora Legion" as a refugee, Deng Chengwen, who was still a wealthy businessman at the beginning, has completely become a country bumpkin. He dresses like a country bumpkin, talks like a country man, and does a country job.
The director of the Ministry of Agriculture was first arranged by Zhou Qingfeng to dig coal in the coal mines of Matanzas. The earliest fuel for the legion to save his life was the lignite he dug. Since then, he has been dealing with "soil", and the legion wants to build a greenhouse.
, as the agricultural director, he has to take the lead.
Digging manure, building sheds, raising maggots, raising chickens, raising pigs, growing vegetables, and all the fresh ingredients in the army were all made from scratch by Deng Chengwen and a group of people in the ministry who worked hard and started from scratch. Many people in the Ministry of Agriculture are the same.
Commended by the regimental commander.
Thinking about how at the beginning there were only a dozen or so elites in the ministry who knew everything but didn't understand farming, and now the largest part of the legion controlled more than 100,000 people, Deng Chengwen felt very excited.
"I've wanted to deal with those lazy idiots for a long time. No matter how I teach them, they're all lazy and greedy, and they just can't do anything." Deng Chengwen cursed, and the entourage behind him also
After shouting a few times, everyone was filled with anger.
Back then, there were only a few people in the legion, so anyone who was a labor force would be accepted. Everyone thought that as long as they were trained well, even the worst people could be tempered into steel. But this principle no longer works in South America and the Caribbean.
The number of the legion expanded from a few thousand to half a million within half a year, and its ability to control the grassroots dropped significantly. The top brass of the legion considered stability issues and did not effectively clean up the sores within themselves.
Why not clean it up? Because there are too many dead people.
Cuba originally had a population of more than 12 million, but after the catastrophe, half of the population went to the United States to live a better life. The remaining 5 to 6 million people are a result of internal strife and nuclear winter, and now only three or four can be accommodated.
One hundred thousand. Others are scattered in the countryside and struggling, and there are at most one million.
Nowadays, if you go further around Havana, the remote villages and towns are completely depopulated, and you can still see a large number of corpses or bones exposed in the wild.
Precisely considering leaving some room for development in the future of mankind, Zhou Qingfeng took over all the living problems of the Legion's more than 500,000 people. As a result, this burden was so big that it almost dragged the Legion to death.
And when Boss Zhou discovered that sooner or later his family was killed by an inefficient slacker, he decided to throw away the burden without hesitation. After convening a rectification meeting, he not only rectified the management, but also the entire army - we want to develop, we want to
Make reforms!
Are more than 10,000 greenhouses enough? Not enough! We need to build 100,000. Especially now that the ambient temperature has increased significantly, the consumption of coal has dropped significantly. The same coal shipped from Mexico can meet the constant temperature requirements of more greenhouses.
.
After more than half a year of exploration, a skilled agricultural population has been cultivated, and the conditions for expanding the scale have been met. As soon as Boss Zhou said - we have implemented household-based production contracting, and we will give priority to those who are hardworking and willing to work.
Compared with the past production model similar to the planned economy, the ‘household quota system’ has allowed people who are really willing to work to have a tenfold increase in their enthusiasm for production.
"In the past, we were in a period of exploration, and we couldn't do much unless we joined forces. But now that the environment has improved, production tools and materials have become cheaper, and capable people should be given the opportunity to make a fortune."
Deng Chengwen held up an electric horn and personally went to the farm to announce the new policy. To put it bluntly, it was to contract out the greenhouses at a discount. Of course, only those who met certain qualifications could contract.
This statistic shows that despite the over 100,000 people in the Ministry of Agriculture, there are only 5,000 people who can serve as the backbone of the army for contracting. And less than half of them are Chinese.
When they heard that they could contract the Legion's greenhouses, qualified people felt that a stable path to wealth was right in front of them. Currently, the only place that can produce vegetables and meat on a large scale is the Aurora Legion. As long as it goes on the market, it will definitely be sold.
And the price is very good.
Farming in the last days is definitely a way to make a fortune. The key is that you have a strong backer and don't let people come to rob your door every day. The legion is absolutely reliable in ensuring safety, allowing residents to focus on their own affairs easily.
Work.
"We have no capital, what should we do?"
"The Interior Ministry will disburse the loan."
“We don’t have enough manpower, what should we do?”
"Hire, but how to make those slackers work hard is what you have to consider."
"Where's the sales?"
"If the legion is willing to underwrite the sales, you can also sell it yourself. This is your freedom."
Due to the nuclear winter, all kinds of pests are almost extinct, and there is basically no need to consider the problem of pests and diseases when growing fast-growing vegetables. Nowadays, labor is cheap, and a greenhouse can be well taken care of by two or three people.
A contractor hires three or four skilled workers who can serve the crops, and each skilled worker has five or six ordinary laborers. A small team of twenty or thirty people can be easily established. As long as the contract is good, it can start quickly.
produce.
Anyone with a brain will not refuse such a good thing. But for those who are lazy and slippery, this is a huge disaster.
For people who work in greenhouses on weekdays, it is very clear who is diligent and who is lazy. People who are qualified to contract will recruit hard-working people and soon there will be a large number of them.
The extra people are left.
For those who were left, the legion drove them into the labor market with a wave of their hands. They had nothing to eat from the big pot. If you want to survive, just work hard to find a job.
Want to rebel? Want to cause trouble? However, the police and army of the legion are fierce and ruthless. The legion hides its troops among the people, and a militia company is formed on the farm. In order to protect his own interests, the contractor has people guarding it 24 hours a day every day.
"Legion Commander, I can assure you that this 'household responsibility' policy will definitely succeed. We have also established a specialized agricultural service company to provide agricultural contract households with guidance on technology, seeds, and machinery.
In two months, our agricultural products will definitely double. From now on, we can double it again every month. In one year, we will effectively use the current population of 500,000 in our army. By then, we will not only be able to feed ourselves, but also the army
The strongest foundation for external expansion.”
The Ministry of Agriculture led by Deng Chengwen was so confident about this prospect that they dared to issue a military order!
