Chapter 1872: Agricultural Reform

At the first stop of the inspection, Uncle Zhou hit a nail.

The problem of the model village is actually very simple. You only need to talk to the village chief, visit the village, and walk in the fields to understand—the conditions are too harsh, and those with a little ability have left, and the rest will naturally do it. Nothing, difficult to develop.

When it gets dark, the village doesn't even have electricity. It is said that the solar panels are broken, and it is too expensive to rely on diesel to generate electricity, so the villagers simply don't bother to bother. However, Zhou Qingfeng's inspection convoy was brightly lit, but it had nothing to do with the villagers in the village.

In the dark night, Zhou Qingfeng stood alone on the dirt road at the head of the village. The model village in front of him and other surrounding villages were hidden in the night and disappeared, only the map projected by the armband computer flashed in front of his eyes.

Li Mingjue accompanied Zhou Qingfeng and asked in a low voice: "Can some people be mobilized to come to the countryside? Mandatory administrative orders and the like."

"You mean 'going up to the mountains and going down to the countryside'? This trick won't work." Zhou Qingfeng stared at the map and was thinking about something, when he heard this he couldn't help laughing and said: "When I founded the Legion, I emphasized the status level and the treatment that people of different levels get. The difference is huge. I only measure the value of a person by talent.

The advantage of this is that when the legion is still weak, there are many capable people who are willing to serve the legion. The downside is that now that the legion is powerful, no one is willing to do low-level work, and everyone is unwilling to suffer.

Mexico is different from our country, and the Legion is different from our rabbits. Let a Han sacrifice his own interests for his compatriots, he can agree. But if you let white or Han people go to the grassroots to support Mexicans, it is very difficult.

The Han people in the legion now have a kind of thinking, that is to immigrate in large numbers from the mainland to gain a population advantage. We currently have less than one million Han Chinese. If we can increase this number to five million or ten million, we can completely establish a single-ethnic country.

But if I really do this, the legion will never want to unify North America. To be honest, I only now understand how troublesome it is to rule a multicultural and multiracial country. If you are not careful, it will be a big division.

It’s no wonder that the original United States insisted on various seemingly mentally retarded policies that favored disadvantaged races. It was not that the American elite wanted to do this, but that they had to do it. This kind of policy has even become political correctness that cannot be violated, otherwise society will be divided. "

Hearing Zhou Qingfeng's long and short sighs was troublesome, Li Mingjuan was also worried, "Is there nothing better to do?"

"Miscellaneous marriages, marriages, it took at least a hundred years to mix multiple races together, including reshaping the culture. For example, the Spaniards and the natives of the Caribbean and South America created Hispanics." Zhou Qingfeng opened his mouth and reported A long-term plan.

"A hundred years?" Li Mingjue said in surprise.

"One hundred years is fast. Columbus discovered the New World at the end of the fourteenth century. At that time, the rabbit's homeland was still in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, about five hundred years ago."

For such a long time, it does not sound like something that can be driven by executive orders. Li Mingjue was also discouraged. She looked at the map in front of Zhou Qingfeng and asked, "Then what are you going to do? Is there no short-term effective solution without fighting?"

"Yes! The reason why so many scattered villages were established in the past was because I was not able to provide a large amount of materials, so I had to ask farmers to occupy more land for production. Now I have to change it and merge the villages into towns, so that administrative resources can be pooled. Concentrate and use."

Zhou Qingfeng opened his mouth and said, "We have to professionalize farming, establish a land reclamation group controlled by the Legion, and organize the farmers at the bottom by employing them. As long as they can make money, the elites of the Legion are willing to work at the bottom. This is much stronger than an executive order.

Moreover, there are a lot of flat land on the Mexican plateau, which is very suitable for large-scale mechanized production. Whether it is sowing, field management, or harvesting, it can be done efficiently and at high speed.

There are many 'red necks' in Texas who are good at running farms, and they can be brought in for reclamation. We Han people are also good at farming, so this matter lies in how to invest a lot of money in reforms.

"

Zhou Qingfeng wanted to modernize agriculture, but he only talked about agriculture, while Li Mingjue was still thinking about ethnicity and race. She asked: "Does this not improve our current biggest dilemma? Even..., it strengthens the strength of those Mexicans and whites."

"I really can't do anything about it." Zhou Qingfeng could only shake his head and laugh loudly, "Don't make things difficult for me if you can't do things that nuclear bombs and nuclear winter haven't done."

Zhou Qingfeng intends to carry out agricultural reforms. The Legion invests in infrastructure, but gives away part of the profits to private individuals and enterprises. You must know that agriculture is actually quite profitable, and it will definitely attract a large number of people to work.

There is a precedent for this kind of thing in the United States - most people think that the most powerful economic group in the United States must be the military industry. In fact, this is a big mistake. The annual revenue of those well-known military enterprises is only tens of billions of dollars. What is really powerful is the monopoly of agricultural products.

Food companies in the United States are so powerful that they can repeatedly wage wars for their products. Many countries in Central America have been in political turmoil. Isn’t it because of the scourge of multinational food companies?

Zhou Qingfeng wants to build a large-scale agricultural reclamation group to improve the agricultural situation. To put it bluntly, he still needs to rely on the support provided by the rabbits in the real world. Anyway, they are all debts, and it doesn't matter if you owe more or less.

After discussing the matter with Xiao Yi and Lina on the radio, Zhou Qingfeng asked Deng Chengwen, Minister of Agriculture of the Legion, for the current agricultural survey report in Mexico. This report is transferred to the real-world rabbit think tank, and it will soon become a huge order for agricultural machinery and agricultural materials.

And in the same dark night, the villagers of Mofan Village didn't sleep at all. The village head, Saimet, stood in front of the window of his house, looking at the convoy of the regimental commander hundreds of meters away with lights on. And behind him are the dull villagers during the day, and now they are talking and talking fiercely.

"What is Captain Hugo doing here? We are poor and have nothing here."

"Maybe it's for an outing. I've seen senior Mexican officials travel before. Dozens of vehicles drove by on the road, escorted by bodyguards to villas and mountains in the suburbs."

"But Commander Hugo is not such a person. I firmly believe that he is different from those officials in the past."

Zhou Qingfeng's reputation in Mexico is very good, even if he caused the deaths of millions of Mexicans, the elite Mexican National Defense Force he forged has become the pride of the entire Mexican community. The living people prefer to believe that death and sacrifice are the only way to become powerful.

The village head of Semet is a disabled veteran in the war. He has a special feeling for the head of his army after he has experienced the cruel war. Hearing the noisy voices of the villagers, he stood up and shouted: "Stop making noise, Commander Hugo asked me a lot of questions, and he must come to improve our lives."

"It would be a great improvement if he could find us more women," said a villager. This remark made everyone in the room laugh happily, but everyone really had great expectations for the changes that the legion commander would bring next.
