Chapter 520 Agricultural Reform II

Not long after, Edel agreed to Prime Minister Karaturi's signature, and the bill on deepening agricultural reforms was circulated across the country.

This bill mainly focuses on several points. The first is to provide subsidies for the purchase of modern agricultural machinery at a rate of 5%-15% of the price.

Second, encourage farmers to move to cities. The government will provide skills training for new farmers who move to cities so that they can find jobs in cities faster.

Third, accelerate the industrialization reform of agriculture to make Romanian agriculture more adaptable to modernization.

The first and third points are easy to say, but the second point is aimed at the actual beneficiaries of these lands. Therefore, after the bill was released, there was quite a commotion in the former Russian territories.

This government bill will increase expenses for these land beneficiaries. No one will be embarrassed about the money, so private connections are also going on.

As a famous figure in Western Ukraine, many people came to Morakov's family. As the prime minister of the previous short-lived Ukrainian government, Morakov also served as a minister in the Romanian government. Later, because he did not want to continue to hold a government position, Morakov

That’s why he returned to his hometown in Vinnitsa. And when he returned to his hometown, he was also very influential in the local area. The mayor and other dignitaries would also visit his home from time to time. So these people wanted to find a leader who could convince the public, so naturally they

Find it on him.

"Mr. Morakov, the government is trying to push us to a dead end. Those mud-legged people were a little restless before, and now the introduction of this bill has made them even more restless. During this time, there are ten people on my land.

Many families abandoned their land and moved away. If this continues, no one will be able to grow food on the land. Without food, a country will have to suffer from famine. This is a big deal. Mr. Morakov, as a capable person

, we must clearly explain the harm to the government.”

A well-dressed fat man was speaking passionately about the dangers of the bill in front of Morakov. At this moment, he was like a senior patriot, speaking from the bottom of his heart about things that might endanger national security.

restlessness and shouting.

If Morakov hadn't known this person well, he might have been able to do it.

This Mr. Zombkov owns a large area of ​​land in the southwest of Vinnitsa. This big landowner can earn millions of lei just from selling grain. This is much more profitable than those busy factory owners. Otherwise, how can

He's so broad-minded and fat.

And Robokov's words also attracted support from others.

"The same goes for my family. There are still several farmers who have moved away. The day before yesterday, when I went into the city, I saw a farmer who used to work at my house. He actually dared not even say hello to me. These idiots are simply too rude.

.”

"It's not the same in my family. The farmers who work now are like uncles. If the Tsar is still here, I won't give him a whip."

This sentence made the scene quiet for a moment. The Tsarist Russia period is a taboo topic in Western Ukraine today. They are here to find a way out, not to demonstrate against the government. Don’t look at the peacefulness of the current Bucharest government, but you must know that for them

You can talk about anything, just don’t talk about the Tsarist Russia era. Moreover, this era has passed long ago and will never come back.

When Morakov heard these remarks, his face immediately became unhappy. Just when he was about to get angry, someone suddenly cursed. "Pomerkel, have you drunk too much vodka? Stop talking nonsense about wine."

That’s it.”

Mr. Pomerkel, who knew he had said something wrong, quickly took over. "I'm sorry, I drank two more drinks on the road today and I'm a little confused."

"I wonder if you came to visit Mr. Morakov, but you actually drank on the way."

"It's just too disrespectful to Morakov."

Amid the denunciation of everyone, Pomerkel's remarks changed from dissatisfaction with the government to disrespect for Morakov. It seems that Mr. Pomerkel is very popular.

As for the owner of the place, Morakov, he just stood aside and watched the farce end.

"I understand your difficulties, but you must also consider the government's difficulties."

After hearing Morakov start to speak, everyone present fell silent. "I also know that everyone has suffered losses because of this bill, and in fact I am the same. But you must also see that restricting farmers to the land,

It is currently not in line with the development of the times.”

As he spoke, Morakov observed the expressions of these people. Seeing that many people were still a little unconvinced, he continued, "I wonder if you have ever been to Western Europe and other places to see the agricultural farming there.

"

When no one answered, he knew that even if these people went there, they would probably linger in the prosperous big city, so he had no choice but to continue talking.

"The land in Western Europe is actually more scattered than ours, but its agriculture uses more machinery than we do. In the old government territories, agricultural machinery is also used very frequently. I have carefully calculated before that the use of agricultural machinery is more than the use of agricultural machinery.

Farming with stored energy and manpower is more cost-effective because its work efficiency is much higher. Why don't we take this opportunity to purchase agricultural machinery to replace stored energy and manpower."

"But this will cost a lot of money. The old territory of the previous government mainly relied on food exports during the war to make a lot of money, so it was replaced."

Morakov was not angry when someone intervened to offer opinions. "If I don't let you make money first, then you won't be able to switch to mechanical farming?"

After speaking, he began to take stock of the wealth of the people present. "As far as I know, Mr. Zombkov's income from selling grain every year is around one million lei. Don't you have enough money to switch to mechanical farming?"

Robokov, who was named by him, said with some embarrassment. "It usually costs a lot, so it is still difficult to switch to mechanical farming."

"I can't see it. If you buy less expensive daily necessities, I believe you will have enough money to buy machinery for farming. Also, if you treat those farmers better, they won't move away so quickly."

Faced with Morakov pointing out his problems mercilessly, Zombkov could only play dumb.

"Even though we bought those agricultural machinery, we don't know how to use them."

Someone interrupted excitedly.

"The news I got is that the government will send special personnel to each city and county to provide guidance. You only need to send smarter people to learn. Regarding the specific operations of how to farm, sow and harvest, I don't think anyone here is willing to go there in person.

do it."

Morakov's words made everyone laugh. We are all decent people. Just leave the rough work of farming in the fields to those mud-legged people. They have more important things to do.

Morakov dispelled these people's intentions in a few words, but he did not intend to give up this opportunity. In his view, the agricultural reform bill was an opportunity to make the family more prosperous.

Morakov continued, "I wonder if you have noticed the word industrialization in the bill."

The people present look at me and your expressions mean that they are not paying attention to this. He had to explain it. "Industrialization, which means that the state's support for agricultural development will also be based on the market and the economy."

Benefits are the main thing. In other words, we need to let everyone make more money."

The word "making money" immediately attracted everyone's interest, and someone asked, "Then what should we do to industrialize it?"

Morakov was waiting for this sentence, and saw him explain. "First of all, we need to unite to implement large-scale specialization in agricultural production. Our previous model of handing the land to farmers is not suitable for industrialization.

In the future, we need to hire well-known agricultural experts and scholars to provide targeted guidance on land farming and production. This is industrialization."

He still didn't say a word. That is, if they, the big landowners, unite, other farmers will have no way to compete with them and can only eat the residues they have left. Even if they are more cruel, these farmers will not even be able to eat the residues. Of course,

With his reputation, he would not do such a thing to tarnish his reputation.

No one present was stupid. Knowing that Morakov had proposed it, he naturally wanted to take the lead in this matter. However, he was the only one present who had a reputation and could convince the crowd. So after a while of quiet discussion, someone said, "I propose.

Morakov leads us in implementing this industrialization."

"I agree."

"I will reconsider."

"..."

Seeing that things were developing smoothly as he expected, Morakov did not refuse. "Since everyone agrees, let's discuss how much land each family will give to do this. But let's make an agreement first.

It costs a lot of money but the benefits are good, so everyone needs to think clearly before making a decision."

So a group of people began to discuss how much land should be allocated for industrialization.

The final result was that the Vinnitsa land managers allocated a total of 6,428 hectares of land to implement this industrialization, which is quite a lot. You must know that the first time was more or less just a trial. On the other hand, this

The gang members are all big landowners,
