Chapter 895 Food Crisis, Everything Needs to Be Rebuilt!

Food shortage is more obvious than other difficulties at any time.

For example, now.

Although Chen Shen exaggerated the severity of food shortage, the figure of only forty days still made everyone feel uneasy.

"We have no choice. This is the safest and maximum limit."

As the material manager, Shen Ke stood up and confirmed the correctness of the data just now.

Ideally, if this number can rise to sixty days, or seventy days, it is not unacceptable.

After all, the territory is not just about spending every day.

The greenhouses that are being built, the large tracts of excavated land, and the rice leaves purchased from the neighbors next door can all increase this number slightly in the future.

But no one thought before that Su Mo could bring all the refugees back to the territory at once.

The sudden surge in the number of people still brought inevitable huge pressure to the territory's material reserves.

"It's too difficult for us to grow food in a short time. I suggest setting up an expedition team immediately. As long as we can take down a dwarf fortress, the supplies we get will be able to support us for a long time."

A thin man with bright eyes stood up: "My name is Zhong Hao, from the Origin Camp, and I am currently the deputy director of the strategic branch of the village armed forces."

A familiar name, also a name engraved on the future wasteland Tianyuan territory war monument.

As early as the most difficult period of the territory, there were many fierce men with strong fighting will and love of war.

This Zhong Hao's ranking is not low. Su Mo vaguely remembers that it should be during the large-scale alien war at the end of the year. He took 300 people out to break through, and finally killed less than 1,000 enemies and escaped successfully.

It was just that he was unlucky later and met a vagrant team outside, so he died early.

And at this time, the first thing he thought of was to fight the dwarves to ease internal conflicts.

Well

"How many people do you need?"

As the lord of tens of thousands of humans, Su Mo can't waste his energy and time on a war just for supplies, and he can't lead people to go to war personally.

It is undoubtedly better to let these fierce men in the territory lead the team out.

First, they can get supplies back to make up for the family expenses, and second, they can baptize morale in the war to form a stronger team.

The Tianyuan territory will inevitably have foreign wars in the future, whether it is against alien races or those ambitious people who are gradually awakening from the underground. It is a good time to start training troops now.

"Lord, give me 200 people, 20 guns, and 1,000 bullets. Give me another ten days, no, just give me seven days of rations, and I can lead people to set off immediately."

"I will allocate 300 people, 50 guns, and 4,000 bullets for you. The rations are still seven days, and there is no more. Can you find a way to solve it yourself?"

The guns currently used in the territory were made with special tool machines before the real survival version was updated.

Now, after all the use and consumption, there are only a little over 200 M-1 standard rifles left, and there are only 30,000 rounds of bullets in stock.

Before the territory has restored its normal productivity and has the ability to produce weapons and ammunition again, the combination of 50+4000 is already extremely luxurious!

"Guarantee to complete the mission!" Zhong Hao stood up with a flush of excitement on his face.

As the former armed captain of the Origin Camp, he hasn't been so rich for a long time.

Before, everyone used homemade guns, which had no combat power.

Now they have all been replaced with standard rifles. Not only is the firepower strong, but the key is that there is no need to worry about the explosion of the rifle during the battle, which affects morale.

And once you arrive in the new territory, you can be trusted by the lord

"Swear to complete the mission." At the end, Zhong Hao did not forget to change his words and repeat it again, which immediately ignited the atmosphere in the entire conference room.

"Lord, it was acceptable to use the basic public distribution system when our territory was small, but now the number has exceeded 10,000. I suggest that we start a little reform!" Another person stood up.

He was burly and looked like a tough guy who had been in and out of the battlefield.

But when he spoke, his voice was gentle and elegant, which made people feel very comfortable.

"My name is Qiao Yuansheng. I was the vice president of the social research department of Jingnan University in the civilized era. I am now the director of the distribution department of the villager union in the territory."

"Oh, Jingnan University? That's one of the top ten universities in the country!"

"He's not the dean yet. I heard that the vice deans are all very powerful."

"But the reform of private ownership cannot be sloppy. It is easy to unbalance the gap between the rich and the poor in the village."

"Many people are still injured and sick. If private ownership is directly restored, they may not be able to see a doctor or eat."

After hearing Qiao Yuansheng's identity, many people sitting below whispered.

Of course, the people present were 100% sure of his ability. After all, as the dean of Jingnan University, it would be unacceptable if he didn't have some skills.

But not many people actually supported the policies he wanted to implement.

Including Su Mo himself, he was also looking for this name in his mind.

But unfortunately, Qiao Yuansheng did not leave any trace in the future wasteland, and it was likely that he died before dawn.

"Tell me what you think."

Su Mo raised his left hand and pressed it down gently.

Reforming the system, it took Tianyuan Territory in the future wasteland a full four years to gradually transition to an incomplete private distribution system.

And in the following five years, there were no major changes, which continued until the arrival of the Gods' Age.

Before leaving the ruins, Su Mo had discussed this with many old professors who specialized in economics at the Academy of Sciences.

The result was without exception. Almost every professor was convinced that the benefits brought by the public distribution system were actually far greater than those of the private distribution system, and they provided certain social experimental data.

They believed that under the public system, the entire territory was like a clenched fist, which could always hit the most powerful fist at the right position and concentrate its strength to do big things.

Under the private system, the entire territory was like an open palm, which could only wrap the target position in its hand, which seemed threatening but actually had no effect.

In addition, frequent natural disasters easily gave speculators opportunities to seize a large amount of territory wealth, causing a serious imbalance in the gap between the rich and the poor. Once managers intervened, they would lower their credibility.

So if Tianyuan Territory was given another chance, the best choice would be to strictly implement the public distribution system from beginning to end, and hold important means of production and speculative opportunities in their hands from beginning to end.

At that time, Su Mo could not deny this view and did not give his own opinion.

After all, going down the Changlongxian River, there are too many territories that implement different systems, and it is difficult to see that a certain system is far ahead of other systems and has irreplaceable superiority.

Now that Qiao Yuansheng is willing to stand up and talk about his ideas, he will naturally not resist.

"It's like this. After joining the village's villagers' union recently, I took advantage of everyone's rest time to visit and investigate 850 representative families in total, and investigated the personal demands of 2,100 singles, and obtained a data that can represent the ordinary level of our entire territory."

The muscular Qiao Yuansheng took out a thick stack of straw paper and slowly spread it on the table.

"We've talked about all the data one by one, but the highest one is very representative. It's not the food and clothing problem or medical care that everyone imagines, but the 7% rate of people's desire for a private space of their own. In other words, among the 11,259 people in our territory, nearly 10,900 people want a room or even a house that belongs only to themselves or their family."

Compared to the straightforward arguments without any evidence, the arguments represented by data are more acceptable.

"To be honest, this is not a bad thing, but a good thing." Qiao Yuansheng said softly: "Sociology clearly states that only when organisms feel safe and warm in a gathering place will they have the desire to settle down, hoping to take root, develop and reproduce here for a long time. And as this sense of security continues to increase, the desire to settle down will also increase."

"On the contrary, if their biggest demand is food or other scarce resources, it means that they can only feel uneasy here, and they urgently need to hoard enough resources to meet the needs of sudden migration."

"We can't build houses for everyone. Whether now or in the future, we are in short supply of a large amount of building materials, and we need to use them in more practical public buildings." Chen Shen frowned and immediately refuted.

Shen Ke also hurriedly followed up: "In fact, our current living environment is much better than other places, and it can fully meet the needs of 10,000 people."

Su Deben: "It's not that we didn't live in eight square meters with 30 people. Now we can't even afford food and clothing, so where do we get the energy to build more vacant houses?"

Chen Kai: "You're right, this data is meaningless. I still want to live in a luxurious villa!"

Yu Wen, who was sitting with Feng Tianmin in the corner, raised her head: "I do want to have my own house, but I also think it's not the time to build a house now."

Feng Tianmin: "Yes, most people decide to have independent space on a whim. Didn't the Origin Camp let people build houses at will? They didn't see how happy they were. On the contrary, we have collective heating and everyone can sleep comfortably."

People who can live to this time have suffered a lot.

As for the demand for enjoyment, before Qiao Yuansheng could continue to explain, he was interrupted by a quarrel.

Not to mention independent houses, even independent rooms are out of the question.

If you really think you can do it, then you can, just don't use the building materials in the territory, go outside and find them yourself.

Build a house after you find it, and you can live however you want, no one will care.

"Ahem, be quiet, be quiet, and continue listening."

The situation was out of control, and Dean Qiao's hard-working "sociology" was of no use to the oily people present.

In desperation, Su Mo could only cough twice to mediate.

"Don't worry, everyone, listen to me finish the rest of the data and analysis first, I promise that I will never blindly advocate the territory to solve the demands." Taking advantage of the temporary quietness of the scene, Dean Qiao quickly stood up to promise.

He searched on the table for a while, took out several pages of straw paper with numbers drawn on them that were almost unreadable, and continued:

"Settling down is a seemingly detailed but actually huge demand, which basically covers most of the aspects we hope the village will develop in the future. We can slowly discuss the details."

"But in the data I investigated, the second-ranked demand is suitable education!"

"Don't get me wrong, the education here is not for children to go to school, nor for adults to be rebuilt. What everyone wants is definitely not to go back to the classroom and receive earnest teachings."

Interesting.

Su Mo raised his head slightly, and the interest in his eyes became more intense.

"I don't know if you have noticed it, but the work efficiency in our territory is simply too low, so low. Take the most frequent snow clearing and hoeing tasks issued by the task department these days as an example. The person with the highest task completion rate The gap with the lowest person is eight times!"

"I deliberately found these two people to follow and quantified their time and work in a day. Then I found a very interesting data. The former is obviously very efficient but consumes much less physical energy than the latter.

In other words, the person who did less clearly spent more effort, but the results he produced were eight times worse than those who worked less! "

"why is that?"

"It's very simple. I can tell you the reason directly." Qiao Yuansheng exhaled softly: "This man named Bi Qiqi cannot use a hoe and has never done similar physical work on earth. He has never done any similar physical work in his life. He has never been exposed to any work that requires hands-on work. What he is best at is sitting in front of the computer and fiddling with those colorful numbers, making enough money to support his daily life from the deficit in the stock market. "

"You don't know how to do physical work? It's been more than half a year. That doesn't make sense, right?"

"Can such a person survive until now??"

"What's going on? Didn't he report his expertise to the territory?"

"It's useless. Stock trading is not a specialty. I have already seen his personal information sheet."

Seeing that the situation was once again getting close to getting out of control, Qiao Yuansheng learned the lesson this time and quickly interrupted: "It may be luck that such people can join our territory, but we can't expect everyone to complete the task. They have never been exposed to them. past work.”

"Biqiqi is actually a very hard-working person. This is a record of my close observation of his daily schedule from the side and my own dictation. You can circulate it for everyone to read."

Dean Qiao took out the two form sheets and handed them to Chen Shen.

"Read it and let everyone listen." Sumo nodded slightly.

By now, he has understood that the standard of Qiao Yuansheng is worthy of being the dean of Jingnan University.

These data can indeed teach the territory's current young managers a good lesson.

"Biqiqi, male, 34 years old."

"At 5:09 in the morning, I woke up from my bed and recalled the task arrangements I received yesterday under the dim light above my head. Thinking about it from beginning to end, I frowned and was very dissatisfied with my performance yesterday, but I still felt a little I’m excited that someone as bad as myself didn’t get eliminated from the territory.”

"At 5:20 in the morning, I rushed to get up and go out at the earliest time. I got dressed on time, packed my bedding, and left the dormitory. I headed to the first mission point of the day, the kitchen in the cafeteria."

"I started working at 5:30 in the morning! Today's task is to cut vegetables again. This is one of the jobs I fear most because I have to cut them evenly and neatly according to the needs of the chef, but in fact every time I cut them... If it fails to meet the requirements at all, it can only be counted as completing one-third of the task progress.”

"At 6:50 in the morning, my first task was finally completed. Sure enough, the head chef only gave me a 40% task completion progress score, but today he unexpectedly praised me and said that I had made progress. ,That's great!"

"We have breakfast from 7:10 to 7:30 in the morning. Today's breakfast is still rich. The white radish stew is really fragrant. I ate a big whole-grain steamed bun and I was very satisfied."

"At 7:50 in the morning, I started my second task today. I went outside the territory to clear the snow and use a hoe to turn over the frozen land."

"At 12:10 noon, I was hungry, so I sat down to rest for a while, finished the whole-grain steamed bun I brought out in the morning, and drank most of a bottle of boiled water that was almost cold."

"At 2:05 in the afternoon, I finally completed the task of clearing the snow and hoeing the ground. I got blisters on my hands again, but the problem should not be serious."

"At 2:50 in the afternoon, I started my third task today, which was to transport manure and evenly fertilize the plowed land. This job is very challenging for me, not because it smells bad, but every time I It can’t be done evenly, and you can’t get a complete progress score from the acceptor.”

"At six o'clock in the afternoon, the dinner bell rang in the village, and I hurried back to the canteen to have dinner. On the way, I saw many people resting and chatting. I was very envious. Their working ability is really strong."

"At eight o'clock in the evening, the dismissal bell rang on time in the village. Although the work was still not completed, I was finally able to go back and take a breather."

"At 8:30 in the evening, I got a weighted score of 102% for today's task. It was so close and I almost failed again!"

"At nine o'clock in the evening, I finished washing and returned to the warm room. I saw many people gathered in the corner to pray, and I joined them. I was grateful for being alive, grateful for the territory, and grateful for my efforts."

"At 9:30 in the evening, I finished my prayers and went back to bed. After habitually scrolling through the game board for ten minutes, I felt sleepy."

"At nine fifty in the evening, I fell into a deep sleep, ending a tiring and fulfilling day."

"Total working hours: 15 hours and 20 minutes."

"Overall work evaluation: so-so, every task is far worse than normal people's level"

"Seven-day average task weighted rating: 103%"
