Rise of the Wasteland - Chapter 1871
With the marriage proposal coming to an end, engagement or marriage is not so easy to decide. The harem is still awkward, but the arrival of Yuan Mei and others also eased the trouble of shortage of manpower. One thing Zhou Qingfeng decided to do shortly before the start is to inspect the whole territory.
Before the cataclysm, there were 150 million people in Mexico, more than 20 million in Texas, and more than 40 million in California. That’s more than 200 million. However, after the severe disaster, after severe cold, war, and various toss, rough statistics are only 30 to 40 million.
The reason why the waste soil is called waste soil is that it is ‘the bones are exposed in the wild, and there are no chickens in a thousand miles’. It ’s no exaggeration. Many social contradictions have disappeared because of the disappearance of the population, and many contradictions have become extremely acute because of this.
According to reports from various departments within the Legion, there are still many problems in the Legion. After basic food was available, poverty, medical treatment, cults, discrimination and vendetta began to appear on Zhou Qingfeng’s desk.
In the face of a huge ruling population, even if all the senior members of the Legion are elites, they have to suffer from the poor quality of the grass-roots cadres, and various policies cannot be implemented-it is too common for monks to misrepresent their thoughts.
“I’m going to the grassroots to take a look. I can’t always review the report in the office.” Zhou Qingfeng moved and took his mutant guard to leave, and only Li Mingyu took care of his life, no one else Let’s follow.
The elders in the real world are very concerned about Zhou Qingfeng and his Aurora Corps. He has been free to go to the grassroots to see for himself many times. There will definitely be gains. If you do n’t go to see some problems, you do n’t know what the people below are. What a mess. When things break out, it will be too late to try to clean up.
Due to better agricultural and industrial conditions in northern Mexico, the Aurora Corps has housed a large population here. A few provinces in the north are affected by the United States, and various infrastructures are relatively complete. Simply speaking, it is easier to plant land.
Zhou Qingfeng’s inspection route also headed north. He first went to see the Legion Farms near Mexico City, which served millions of people in the city. It stands to reason that this is also the foot of the emperor, and there should be no major problems.
The development of agriculture has a characteristic, short cycle. Compared to investing in an industry, it only takes a few years to achieve results, and agriculture lasts half a year from seeding to harvesting. Both labor and funds can be transferred quickly. For social stability, the Corps has always emphasized rural development.
Guanajuato, north of Mexico City, is a well-known agricultural state in Mexico. Zhou Qingfeng randomly picked a so-called ‘model village’ here and killed him.
Zhou Qingfeng felt that he would definitely see a lot of problems when he went out to inspect. He first made some gestures to look at a better place, reminded other bad places, and let those officials rush to make corrections-otherwise, they would find them everywhere It’s all a problem, and the commander of his army is also dull.
Without any prior notice, the head of the regiment came very suddenly. The head of a certain “model village”, Semet, hurriedly gathered more than 200 villagers for review. This sudden incident made the villagers very nervous.
“Relax, I just came to see.” Zhou Qingfeng waited at the village entrance for a while, and was accompanied by the village chief to enter the village. “Village Saimet, are you a veteran? How is life in the village?”
Zhou Qingfeng could see the head of the village of Semet shivering nervously, and his words were not smooth. He didn’t really mind, walking and comforting each other, thinking that he would be a little patient no matter what happened.
Can you wait for Uncle Zhou to walk into the village and look at him-this is the model village? You are a bunch of beggars.
More than two hundred villagers stood at the crossroads of the village to greet the commander of the army. They were as excited and curious as the head of the village, Saimet. But their looks are really miserable, even if they are worn and worn, it is difficult to have a clean body. And the whole village is dirty and not refreshing.
There are few women in the village, only twenty or thirty. A few people have children, which is the only bright spot. The other men were unkempt and timid, and looked like a bunch of refugees. If all this is exemplary, what is the worst situation?
As soon as Zhou Qingfeng entered the village, he felt a fire in his stomach. He tried to keep the smile on his face, and asked the chief of the village of Saimet, “How is your economic situation here?”
Saimet sternly said, “The condition of our village is not bad, much better than in the past. Everyone can eat enough food and wear warm clothes. There are regular medical teams and government caravans. Everyone is quite content. .If there is any regret, there are too few women in the village, not even a few brunettes. “
Zhou Qingfeng took a step around the village and was really disappointed. He originally thought that the “model village” looks good. There are neat houses and buildings, the ground is hardened with cement, there are shops, restaurants, and various public facilities. But what **** are you looking at?
Simple two dirt roads, cluttered houses on either side of the road. The materials used to build the house are strange and strange, but it is very unique.
Judging from the report, the situation in the rural areas ruled by the Legion is not small, it is good, and it is extremely good. Life is thriving and the days are happy, the people are as happy as in a honeypot ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ But the actual situation is not the case at all.
Zhou Qingfeng was informed during the inquiry that the medical team came only once a month, and if there was an emergency, he could only get a car to run to town for an hour or two. If there is no way to arrange the car, it will be painful.
As for the caravan of the government, which comes once a week, the time is not fixed. The needs of the village depended on the caravan. Semmett complained to the caravan. “The variety of goods is quite complete, but the price is too expensive, and we can’t afford many of them.”
Speaking of too expensive goods, Zhou Qingfeng asked the question carefully and found that the problem behind this is even greater-the villagers’ income is not high because the agricultural products in the land have poor output and quality. And why is the quality of agricultural output poor? Because agricultural support is not in place.
Fertilizers, pesticides, improved varieties, agricultural machinery, all these things have problems. Moreover, not all farmers in the village are good at planting land, even if they are good at it, they tend to plant only a few types.
For example, Mexico has high corn yields and low wheat yields. But the legion has a large demand for wheat, and many generations of corn growers have to grow wheat. It’s strange that this can be grown well. Mexican fruit production is not small, but the legion is now in urgent need of vegetables, and supply and demand are completely reversed.
“By the way, where are your cadres in the village?” Zhou Qingfeng suddenly remembered that he had a policy for cadres in the village, because the grass-roots village heads had poor ability and low level, and sent some people in the city to the countryside to strengthen management They are also responsible for certain tasks that require technology.
But where are the village cadres now?
“Run away.” The village chief of Semmett spread his hands as if he finally found the opportunity to sue. “There are several people who come and can’t wait a few days each time and then run away. The village is too bitter and they don’t live in Metropolis. Go inside. “
Fuck you!
Lao Tzu also counted on ‘the vast world and great achievements’, and everyone ran away. This is a ghost.
