After Ouyang Antong hesitated for a few seconds, his frown finally relaxed and he happily answered: "That's okay~"
Wang Ping continued his analysis: "My idea is to invest 400 cattle in Yanchang County next year, and you will also publicize more, so that the cultivated area of Yanchang County will exceed 60,000 acres, reaching the level of two acres per capita~"
"Take the Zhou family we know as an example. Before spring plowing next year, they can cultivate a few more acres of land, reaching fifteen acres. There are five people in their family and three strong laborers. Even if there are cattle to help cultivate, fifteen acres of land will be cultivated.
It’s also the limit of their farming.”
"With fifteen acres of land, they have enough time to make fertilizer this winter, improve the fertility of the land, and then increase food production!"
"This year, the Zhou family's average yield per mu is 280 kilograms, and next year it may exceed 300 kilograms. In this way, the Zhou family's grain output will reach 4,500 kilograms!"
"Excluding the rations, grain seeds, and rent for renting cattle, they can still get nearly two thousand kilograms of more grain! If converted into ocean dollars, it would be nearly forty yuan. Add in the income from raising goats, chickens, and pigs, and the income exceeds fifty yuan.
There's definitely no problem."
"At that time, we can sell the cattle directly to the Zhou family, buy them with grain, and pay back all the grain in two years!"
"I'm sure that with Mr. Zhou's courage, he will definitely buy it."
"Because, with their own cattle, they can not only ensure that their own land is sown on time during spring plowing, but they can also help others farm and earn some rent~"
"In this way, in less than two years, the cultivated area of Yanchang County will reach 100,000 acres, with an average of three acres per person. More importantly, the people will harvest more and more food, and then we can collect taxes appropriately
Some grain taxes.”
"Not to mention too much, the grain tax of 20 kilograms of grain per acre of land is very low for a land with an average yield of more than 250 kilograms per acre, and the people will definitely be willing to accept it."
"Twenty kilograms of grain tax for one acre of land, and one hundred thousand acres of land equals two million kilograms of grain!"
"Of course, after the government collects the grain tax, it cannot take away the grain tax, hand it over, and then do nothing else!"
"For example, if the grain tax increases by two million jins of grain, you will hand over 1.5 million jins of grain according to the proportion, and the remaining 500,000 jins will be retained by the county government to build water conservancy projects and roads..."
Ouyang Antong didn't know when he had picked up his notebook and started recording every word Wang Ping said.
He waited until Wang Ping finished speaking before he stopped writing, and then asked expectantly: "Is there more?"
"Yes!" Seeing An Tong's interest, Wang Ping decided to express all the thoughts in his mind.
It has been almost a year since I left the base, and no one knows when I will go back. Therefore, I must seize the time and try my best to give her some of the experiences I have brought from later generations.
After a moment of hesitation, he continued: "Only by continuously building water conservancy projects and roads, and letting the people see the real benefits, will they trust our government more and more!"
"In terms of food and land, as I just said, as long as the population of Yanchang County does not fluctuate greatly, 100,000 acres of land should be the limit of Yanchang County!"
"So, if we want to further increase people's income, we have to start from other aspects."
"Raising is a good choice. In a few years, it is guaranteed that every household in Yanchang County will have one cattle, one sheep per capita, two pigs per household, and more than a dozen chickens per household. If this standard can be reached, each household will also be able to
Increase your income by at least ten yuan!"
"The last one is industry and commerce. If I remember correctly, there seems to be an oil field here in Yanchang County. However, the production method is too backward. Basically, the crude oil is sold directly. When your county government has money, it can invest in a refinery.
, separate and process crude oil into a series of products such as gasoline, diesel, kerosene, candles, etc., and then sell them!”
"In addition, as I just said, you can write a report to the border district government and ask the border district government to use Yanchang County as a pilot county for you to develop."
"You can also find a pilot household in every village in the county. For example, Zhoujiazhuang, Mr. Zhou's family is a very good pilot household."
"With a little bit of help, all the people in the county will become rich!"
Ouyang Antong kept nodding: "Wang Ping, are you done?"
"That's it, that's all I can think of for now!" Wang Ping replied with a wry smile.
Ouyang Antong made the decision without any hesitation: "You are right, I will write the report tomorrow!"
"This year our grain output in Yanchang County has exceeded 10 million kilograms, and we no longer have to eat relief grains. With this achievement alone, the border district government will agree to my application and report!"
A few days later, Wang Ping appeared in the office of Minister Li of the Ministry of Economic Affairs.
"Chief, I'm here to beg for alms again!" After some pleasantries, Wang Ping said straight to the point.
"Alchemy? Comrade Wang Ping, if I guessed correctly, you should be the richest cadre in Yan'an now. I haven't asked you for alms yet and you found me!" Minister Li replied with a little joke.
Wang Ping's face gradually became serious, and then he said: "Chief, I am here to beg alms on behalf of the cooperative~"
"I plan to invest another 40,000 yuan in the cooperative, of which 10,000 yuan belongs to me, and the remaining 20,000 yuan belongs to the cadres and members of the special team and the direct team!"
"The headquarters rewarded them personally with 500 yuan at a time. They didn't know what to do. Finally, I came up with a compromise for them: If you believe me, put some of the money into the cooperative without taking any shares and only paying dividends.
.I didn’t expect that those people trusted me so much that they raised 30,000 yuan in one go!”
"You want the Ministry of Economic Affairs to invest 40,000 yuan with you!" Minister Li's face became serious!
"Yes, Chief, a total of 80,000 yuan, plus the income of the cooperative this year, we can collect 100,000 yuan to buy all the cattle. We will buy 2,000 cattle at a time. If we can't buy them in Shanxi, we will go to the grassland to buy them. The cattle on the grassland
It’s cheaper, and you can buy a lot of goats back with you!”
Seeing the hesitation on Minister Li's face, Wang Ping continued: "Although investing 40,000 yuan at a time is a lot, I can guarantee that by the time of next autumn harvest, the 40,000 yuan invested by the Ministry of Economic Affairs will turn into 80,000 yuan.
Maybe even 100,000 yuan!"
Seeing Minister Li's expression of shock and disbelief, Wang Ping immediately told what he saw in Yanchang County.
"I know this!" Minister Li replied very firmly.
"Comrade Ouyang's report has arrived at the Border Region Government. I have also read it. It shocked me so much that even the Deputy Commander-in-Chief was alarmed. The Border Region Government has set up an investigation team as an early warning and will investigate in the next few days. As long as the situation is true,
90% will agree!”
"You know, this is a matter decided by the deputy commander himself!"
Then he stared at Wang Ping and asked: "According to your idea, the cattle will be sold to the people one after another next year! Without the cattle, what will the cooperative do in the future?"
"The whole process will take at least five years, or even ten years. After all, there are dozens of counties in the border area. Therefore, in the next five to ten years, the cooperative will mainly rent cattle and goats and promote them throughout the border area.
!”
"I roughly calculated that there are one to two million people in the border area. According to the standard of five people and one cattle, that would require 30,000 to 40,000 cattle. Therefore, the cooperative still needs to do a lot of things!"
"In addition to farming cattle and goats, I recently asked my father-in-law to contact agricultural experts in Chongqing to see if we can find a few people to come over and set up a seed research laboratory!"
"Nowadays, the seeds used by ordinary people for farming are all saved by themselves, and the yield is low. I want them to research seeds with better yields, and then specialize in producing seeds and promote them throughout the border areas to increase food production!"
"This is a good thing that benefits the country and the people, I agree!" Minister Li replied very happily.
"I'm going to find the deputy commander now, and you should come with me. Forty thousand yuan can only be approved with the consent of the deputy commander!"
