Imagine the world

Cassava can grow on relatively barren and arid land. If the climate, irrigation, fertilization and other conditions are sufficient, the yield per mu can even reach more than [-] catties, and the usual yield per mu can reach about two tons.The edible part of cassava is mainly the rhizome, but it is not storable, and it will spoil in three days when it is dug up in the climate of Port Fesso.

This thing cannot be eaten raw, because it is poisonous.The local people's treatment method is to first peel off the skin, grind the white tubers and water to precipitate, and dry or steam the cassava flour to be the food after detoxification.Its processing is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it is handled by hand in the family, and there cannot be too much surplus reserves.

For example, a man goes to the field to dig cassava, and the housewife handles it after returning home. After a day of operation, he can only get enough cassava flour for one or two days for the family to eat. No matter how much he digs, it is useless, because it will be broken if it is not handled properly.If it is planted on a large scale, subsequent processing and storage issues must be considered.

Mo Shangtong pondered: "Of course we are going to open a processing plant, but you don't seem to have a good understanding of the current industrial level, so it is not a large-scale processing plant with this scale.

Harvesting can be carried out in stages and batches, anyway, this place can harvest all year round.Based on the current maximum estimated output, an annual processing capacity of 50 tons is sufficient, and a daily processing capacity of [-] tons is tentatively guaranteed. "

Hua Zhenxing: "Where are the machines and workers?"

Mo Shangtong smiled: "Workers can be trained, just choose from the straw shoes. The machine sounds incredible here, but it's just a piece of cake for industrial countries. An agricultural machinery institute in Dongguo specially developed a cassava processing machine. machine, as well as various supporting special food processing machines, I have already engaged in small-scale trial production here.

Even if cassava is planted now, the first batch of harvest will not be able to place an order until half a year later.What we need to prepare here is the workshop and warehouse, as well as a safe production environment.So in the past six months, to clear a 'clean' area in Fesuo port, you should understand what I mean. "

Yang Tehong waved his hand, and Huazhenxing sensed that a cabinet door in the kitchen opened, and something flew out of it.The door also opened automatically, and this thing turned a corner in the air and flew into Old Man Yang's hands. It turned out to be a roll of noodles.Looking at the packaging, it is no different from the ordinary dried noodles made in East China.

Old man Yang had shown off all kinds of unique skills in front of Hua Zhenxing, but this 'magical skill' of taking objects from the air was the first time he used it, just to get some noodles from the kitchen. Perhaps he was stimulated by Teacher Ding.

Seeing that Huazhenxing was stunned there, he handed over the noodles and said, "Look, what kind of raw material is this made of?"

Hua Zhenxing tore a small mouth in the wrapping paper, inhaled his nose, and said with his spiritual sense: "The main material is tapioca flour, as well as some soy flour and other additives..."

Old man Yang: "We have never eaten this kind of noodles before. Your uncle Mo just brought them. Cassava can not only be processed into noodles, but also made into steamed buns, bread, and dumplings. Noodles are the most suitable for long-term storage, as long as they are not It can be stored for two years as long as it gets damp and does not grow insects. Have you ever drunk bubble tea, the 'pearl' in it is processed from tapioca flour."

Hua Zhenxing: "Bubble milk tea? I've heard of it, but I haven't had it, and it's not sold in Fesuogang."

Ke Mengchao: "This poor child."

Yang Tehong: "What's so pitiful? It's not good to drink, anyway, I don't like it. Xiaohua, you can check how pearl milk tea is made. Anyway, there is both tea and milk at home, so make it yourself. , remember to be delicious! Uncle Mo just brought a big bag of tapioca flour, you can think about it, what more delicious snacks can you make with that stuff?"

Ke Mengchao: "Speak the business!"

Yang Tehong: "Then I'll just get down to business, clean up a clean area in the name of Datou Gang, and open a few big stores, which can be a series of chains. I've already thought of the names. Sokang Grain and Oil, Feisogang Supply and Marketing Cooperative, Feisogang Wujiaohua and so on.

As for the source of goods, on the one hand, it is imported from Dongguo, and on the other hand, it is what we produce ourselves. For example, cassava noodles are the main product of Feiso Port Grain and Oil... Cassava flour is also an industrial raw material, and even cassava leaves can be silaged and detoxified as feed. . "

Hua Zhenxing's mind suddenly flashed, and he quickly interjected: "I still have an idea! If we really open these stores, we can issue shopping coupons with denominations. In the future, if we hire local people to harvest crops in the wild, it is suspicious to use them. They get paid for shopping vouchers that they can go to the store to exchange for things they need, like tapioca noodles.”

Ke Mengchao couldn't help but reached out and patted him on the shoulder: "Not bad, Lao Yang praised you just now. This is a deduction, involving the fields of circulation and finance. Not only organizes production, sales and distribution, but also distributes generation Coin, you must have never seen shopping coupons, how could you think of this trick?"

What happened today, the three old men took turns to praise him, Hua Zhenxing was almost embarrassed to be praised, he lowered his head slightly and replied, "I haven't seen it, but I have heard of it."

Mo Shangtong also asked with great interest: "I heard it is another matter, what do you think?"

Hua Zhenxing: "Firstly, as the business expands, cash flow may be difficult. Second, according to what you just said, the currency of Jili will almost certainly depreciate at that time.

More importantly, if you give those people money directly, you are afraid that they will not buy what they need, but turn their heads and go to gambling, talking and poisoning.Many people here are addicted to having a little money, even regardless of whether there is food tomorrow or what is missing at home. "

Ke Mengchao sighed: "What you think you need is different from their concept. Even if you pay with shopping vouchers, they can exchange things in the store, and they may sell those things later and exchange them for money to gamble and draw. ."

Hua Zhenxing's expression darkened: "We can only do this as much as possible. No one can save those who seek death by ourselves."

Mo Shangtong asked, "Why would someone court death?"

Hua Zhenxing: "I can't explain it in a few words. You must know better than me. All I can think of is to let those people develop a habit through personal experience, so we can't give things directly, otherwise we will not be able to bear it, but will destroy it. Lose a group of people who still had hope."

Chapter 043 Only Children Think That Way

Ke Mengchao's tone suddenly became serious: "Think again, where is the Feiso port you dreamed of?"

Old man Yang also reminded: "Just treat it as if you were recalling in your dream, recalling the history of that city. You graduated from college in your dream, so it's impossible not to have studied history, right?"

Hua Zhenxing narrowed his eyes and looked at the sand table, as if he was recalling in a dream, but also looking forward in reality.

Mo Shangtong also narrowed his eyes: "Isn't this the current city?"

Hua Zhenxing shook his head: "That is a new city, a new city built from scratch."

Ke Mengchao: "Why?"

Hua Zhenxing: "You can draw on white paper, how to draw on graffiti, and why use graffiti when you have white paper?"

Mo Shang Tong pressed the remote control, and the sand table showed a super-simulated future scene, including the upstream reservoir and the river on the plain.Immediately afterwards, the upstream dam suddenly disappeared, and the water washed down, flowing over the downstream riverbed, plains, and fields, forming a large wetland.

He explained: "Suppose there is a war or other catastrophic event in the future, and the levee of the reservoir is suddenly destroyed. Some diversion precautions are designed downstream, and there are also several wetlands for flood storage to minimize the damage as much as possible. You see the construction A place in the new city?"

Huazhenhang has already seen it, because it has been marked with a coil. It will be on the north bank of the future Beisuo River estuary, tens of kilometers away from the current Feisuo Port across the river, with an area of ​​160 square kilometers.In the dream, it is a memory of history, but here, what is seen is an uncertain future.

Ke Mengchao: "If you think about it again, who are the residents of Feiso Port in your dream?"

Hua Zhenxing thought for a while: "They are all the same people as me."

Ke Mengchao smiled, but did not ask how he was considered a person like him, but asked, "Why not the local people now?"

Huazhenxing shook his head: "That place has never been inhabited, it was abandoned for thousands of years, and a new city was built out of thin air. The builder is the owner, and you can choose a suitable and real builder to share. Sokang is still where it was, and what it will look like is up to them."

Ke Mengchao pressed the remote control again: "According to your assumption, there is also the area where the gold mine is located. It is the second batch of places that need to be bought, but it cannot be developed in a hurry."

I saw that the display area of ​​the sand table has expanded, and besides the boundary of Xinfeisuo Port circled just now, there is another red circle.The Gate of Shenyin is on the edge of the reservoir in the upper reaches of the Beisuo River, and more than 20 kilometers northwest of it, the place where the gold mine was discovered yesterday was also circled.

Hua Zhenxing: "You said just now that there is a river, where is it?"

Yang Tehong: "Old Mo, don't sell it, let him see it all."

Mo Shangtong pressed the remote control again, the area displayed on the sand table changed to the maximum, and a river appeared in the center of the wasteland.It originates in the mountains of the western plateau and is formed by the convergence of multiple sources. There is a large reservoir at the mouth of the valley near the plain.There are more than a dozen small reservoirs on the various tributaries of the source, and one of the tributaries passes through the gold mining area.

From the westernmost end of the river, the straight-line distance to the eastern coast is [-] kilometers, and the main stream winds nearly [-] kilometers across the wasteland.It's not that Huazhenxing made an accurate visual measurement, but there are digital markings on the sand table, and there are three more circles. The markings are also suitable for building cities.

There are also large and small tributaries in the middle and lower reaches of this river, and many wetlands are dotted. The area changes with the seasons, and many reservoirs of different sizes also appear on many tributaries in the middle and lower reaches.

Of the three red circles, the first one appeared between the upstream large reservoir and the gold mining area, marked as No. [-].The second one appears in the midstream, in the central area of ​​the entire plain, and is labeled No. [-].The third appears at the mouth of the river, spanning both banks, and is marked as number three.So where is number two?No. [-] is the new Fesso port area that has been circled earlier.

The sand table simulates a new river, a whole new watershed, and three new city boundaries.Mo Shangtong asked, "What is the name of this river?"

Hua Zhenxing slapped his forehead: "It's called Zhenxinghe!"

Ke Mengchao: "Does it match your dream?"

Hua Zhenxing: "I came up with the name based on that dream."

In his dream, Huanxiang State owned 28 territories all over the world, all of which were transformed and developed uninhabited deserts on this planet. In addition to living and production areas, there are also large ecological areas. The earliest territory is called Zhenxing state.Such a name in the dream is obviously related to his name.

Mo Shangtong smiled slightly: "Then I'll draw you Zhen Xingbang."

The largest red circle appeared on the sand table. The southern boundary is the barbed wire just marked, the eastern boundary is the coast, and the western boundary extends between the plateau and mountains. The most exaggerated is the north, to the northwest. It stretched out a large area and penetrated deep into the territory of today's Tema country.

The total area of ​​this big red circle is [-] square kilometers, which is almost one-sixth of the current territory of Jili Kingdom, and it also occupies a piece of Tema Kingdom.Hua Zhenxing touched the back of his head and said, "Who can buy such a big place with so much money?"

The old man Yang smiled: "It's a dream anyway, just do it quickly, you can treat it as a dream. Of course it's impossible to buy it at one time, you can do it in stages and batches, and control a few important nodes to build according to your needs. ."

Ke Mengchao twitched his beard and said, "It seems like throwing money away in infrastructure construction in the desert. Who will use it when it's finished, and who will maintain it? You have to think about it and start dreaming from scratch. But I There is a doubt, if you really bought all the places with your own money and hired people to build all the things, what is it?"

Before Huazhenxing could answer, Mo Shangtong said: "The theoretical ultimate form of the will of capital, the only monopoly. In this area, he is the chaebol and exclusive capitalist who controls all resources... Xiaohua, this is Is that your dream?"

Hua Zhenxing was stunned again. He blinked his eyes and thought for a long time before saying, "I know what you mean. I have also read Dongguo's political textbooks and found a lot of information to read. But in my dream, Huan Feng Zibin, the founder of Xiangguo, yes, that's what he's called, that's what he did."

Yang Tehong: "How to do it, please explain clearly."

Hua Zhenxing: "He just bought the whole place, recruited builders to develop it, and built various supporting facilities together. Then the builders stayed and took over their families to become the earliest residents."

Yang Tehong: "Who spent the money?"

Hua Zhenxing: "It's the money he spent, he invested it all by himself from start to finish, I don't know where he got so much money at the beginning... As for later, it has already produced output, such as Chunrong Dan Industry There is a lot of income.”

Ke Mengchao: "That's not the kind of situation I just said. One person established an all-inclusive capital empire."

Hua Zhenxing shook his head and said: "But the actual situation is not what you said, he hardly shows up, and all assets and resources are managed by the government of Huanxiangguo, just like... just like the kind of Great Harmony you said. "

Yang Tehong said dumbly: "This brain hole has a big turning point!"

Ke Mengchao also laughed and said, "Only children can think of it."

Mo Shangtong sighed, "Utopia, Utopia!"

Yang Tehong put away his smile and said, "This is a painting on white paper. It's not unimaginable! I knew my purpose from the very beginning, and I've always followed this path from beginning to end."

Ke Mengchao glanced at Mo Shang and said, "It's too difficult, it's just a dream, a child's play dream! Even if he is an idealist, can he guarantee that his ideal will always be implemented, and that all followers will be the same idealism? the person?"

Mo Shangtong changed his face slightly: "It's just a dream, it's a child's brain hole, what can't it be? A prerequisite for achieving the goal is that he himself can control the process until it is completed."

Ke Mengchao: "How can it be considered complete?"

Yang Tehong interjected: "It can be completed in stages, such as a new city, such as a real state, and then use this as a template to promote it..."

Ke Mengchao: "I invested so much, just to do a dream experiment?"

Mo Shangtong asked back, "Can't you?"

Yang Tehong gave a high five and said, "Yes! Isn't money just spent, and people have to do things?"

Hua Zhenxing was a little confused, he waved his hand and said, "Don't quarrel over such a shadowless thing! Let's talk about how the [-] mu of farmland can be planted, and the [-] square kilometers of land surrounded by barbed wire. So much money to buy it!"

Huazhenxing had just received [-] meters of gold, and sent out [-] with [-] left. Although it was possible to buy a large piece of land in the wilderness, it was only a few square kilometers, but it was far from being able to do such a big project.

The three old men glared at each other for a long time, and then all of a sudden they all laughed, Mo Shang nodded and said: "It really was taught by the three of us together, no one can teach this kind of brain hole alone! Xiaohua, this sand table. I'll give it to you later, if you have time to do research, it's okay to have fun."

Hua Zhenxing frowned a little bewilderedly and said, "You are just talking about it?"

Yang Tehong shook his head: "Of course it's not just talking, this is your plan, are you willing to do it?"

Hua Zhenxing: "How did it become my plan?"

Ke Mengchao: "Even if it wasn't just now, isn't it now? Before entering the room, your thinking may not be clear. After this discussion, a plan has been formed. Isn't that what you want to do?"

Hua Zhenxing: "Yes, but I only have [-] meters of gold. Even if I sell that manor, it will not be enough!"

Yang Tehong twitched his beard and said, "A while ago, you tried your best to escort Dr. Luo on your own, and the hard work was not in vain. Later, you found out why Jin Datou wanted to kill Dr. Luo. I remember that Dr. Luo recommended it to you. I bought a stock. Thanks to you, Lao Mo and I also saw the information he brought with him, and that information is too valuable!"

Mo Shangtong said succinctly: "Rochard gave you [-] meters of gold plus a manor. As for me, I have done some things with those materials, and I have to give you an information fee. [-] meters of gold, do you think How to spend?"

Chapter 044 My Name Is Feng Zibin

Huazhenhang's first thought was not a lot of money, but system tasks. The content of "Mission Four" is "Eliminate Jin Datou, control and transform Datou Gang." The reward is "You will make your own situation safer, perhaps future ideas are easier to realize, or another [-] million meters of gold."

Although he killed Jin Datou, the fourth task was not completely completed, but if you think about it carefully, the fate of the Datou Gang was actually decided, but I didn't expect that the [-] million meter gold reward would appear in this way.

However, he has gradually adapted to the "system"'s urine nature, and it is often unexpected but reasonable. The so-called rewards are never conjured out of thin air, but things that exist in reality.

He took out his mobile phone and started to check the information, and he said, "[-] million meters of gold, at the current international grain price, you can buy [-] tons of wheat. This is the warehouse price excluding freight and tariffs... eh? Data from less than a few miles away.”

Mo Shangtong took over and said, "Considering the inflation factor, the overall trend of international food prices has actually been falling in the past seven or eight years, which has had a great impact on the food production of many countries... Food is also a strategic weapon."

The long-term decline of international food prices has impacted the agriculture of many countries?Take several major grain exporting countries and their agricultural capital groups on the Mizhou continent as an example. They have the world's most suitable fields for large-scale grain planting, the most advanced technology, and the most abundant capital. The output is large and the cost can be very low. Also enjoy huge subsidies.

However, countries like Jili lacked technology and capital. Under the background of free trade, the production cost of backward agriculture even far exceeded the price of food in the international market, and it was not competitive at all.If it is market-oriented, let alone the development of modern large-scale agriculture, the food industry will continue to shrink or even be destroyed.

Speaking of subsidies, in fact, many countries have policy subsidies for grain production. The more developed the industrial countries are, the greater the subsidies will be, but the country obviously does not have this ability.

The theoretical advantage of free trade has become a winner-take-all situation in reality. In the context of economic globalization, countries like Jili cannot even decide what they can produce, and often can only sell resources, Or the production of big international capital needs the products they provide cheaply.

Food production is affected, and self-production is not as good as buying, so it will inevitably rely on imports.Imports require foreign exchange, and foreign exchange comes from exports, which can be maintained under normal circumstances. However, once an economic recession occurs, a series of crises will be triggered, even if the recession does not come from itself.

For example, the current background is the global economic recession, overseas demand for export products mainly from animal husbandry is dwindling, and the price of its products has been suppressed very low, and the country does not have enough foreign exchange to import food.

The deterioration of the balance of payments will also lead to a sharp depreciation of the national currency. Even if there is no shortage of food in the international market and the price of food in foreign exchange will not rise, the residents of the country who use their own currency will still face food shortages. , the situation of soaring food prices, not to mention the situation that port transportation is blocked due to riots and other reasons, and food cannot be bought at all.

This kind of shortage is often structural, but food is different from other things. If it is gone, it will really kill people, and it cannot be produced in a short period of time if you want to produce it yourself.

This knowledge has been learned by Hua Zhenxing since he was a child, and there is no need for Uncle Mo to say more.They were only concepts on books and screen pages before, but now they became the problems he was about to face in reality.In a place like Fesuogang, even the change of regime in the country of Lili has little impact, but once the social order collapses, it will be a disaster for everyone.

Ke Mengchao also asked: "Even if you can buy [-] tons of wheat, what about after that?"

Hua Zhenxing explained, "That's not what I meant. I haven't finished what I said just now. If this plan can be done with [-] million US dollars, it will be much more cost-effective than buying food directly!"

Yang Tehong: "Actually, from another perspective, the problem of food supply here is an opportunity to engage in this plan."

Hua Zhenxing looked up and said, "Can you really have so much money?"

Mo Shangtong: "Of course I can't give you all at once. The first phase of the budget is 1000 million gold, which is mainly used to buy land."

Hua Zhenxing: "I can't buy the land so much, right?"

Mo Shangtong: "It shouldn't be used. The extra money can be spent elsewhere. But how to buy such a large piece of land? In what form and in whose name, we need to think carefully."

Hua Zhen's behavior: "I don't know much about this."

Ke Mengchao: "Learn if you don't understand! You can't do everything by yourself. You need to set up a group and divide it into various project teams to complete... Lawyer Dong will come later, and the procedures will be handed over to him."

Yang Tehong interjected: "There is another question, Xiaohua's age and identity need to be repackaged."

Ke Mengchao: "So the manor has to be kept under the name of Xiaohua. Xiaohua is an investor who has achieved great success overseas. The people here like to kneel and lick this kind of person."

Mo Shangtong said with some dissatisfaction: "Such a manor is too extravagant!"
