Chapter 611 The Dark Side of Nanyang (First update, please subscribe)
Even the moon has a dark side!

This is the rule of physics and the basic rule of everything in the world.

Rows of high-rise buildings and bright neon lights are not everything in this world. Even Nanyang, which looks like a paradise, has its dark side.

Where is this dark side?
It's the plantations, especially those far away from the city. Compared with the bustling cities, this is the other side of Nanyang - there are no dazzling neon lights and no dance parties at night, just endless oil palm plantations. Of course, life here is not pastoral, but monotonous and tiring.

In the early morning, the sun has just crossed the horizon. The golden sunlight shines on the emerald green oil palm leaves, and the dewdrops sparkle on the leaf tips like countless pearls. The workers in the plantation began to get busy. They wielded shovels and cut off the ripe oil palm fruits. However, it only took a while before their clothes were soaked with sweat.

The plantation is filled with the fragrance of oil palm fruits, which is mixed with the fragrance of earth. Occasionally, a breeze blows through and the oil palm leaves rustle.

Although life here is a bit monotonous, people's hearts are also full of expectations.

What to expect?
It is nothing more than the life of a wife, children and a large family. People also chat about their imagination about life.

So and so married a wife, so and so had a baby.

Whenever they talk about this, their voices are full of envy.

Li Yian looked at the "swallow" next to him and said.

In fact, the reason why Li Yian came out to inspect was not to avoid the Americans. After all, some things cannot be avoided.

"Hey, this is all fate..."

"What's the use of it?"

Li Yian said while standing under the corridor of the dormitory, looking at the smoke from the kitchen in the distance.

"Oil palm... will become the agricultural backbone of Southeast Asia in the future."

Listening to their sighs, Li Yi'an frowned. In the past few days, he has been inspecting the plantation as a "Jiahe Company employee". Sometimes, he would also be among the workers like now , working with them, shoveling down bunches of palm fruit.

"That's not true, Brother Liu, you came here three years ago. If you had entered the factory back then, your children might be able to do soy sauce by now!"

"As Europeans' living standards improve in the future, their demand for oil will naturally be higher, and our palm oil can just meet their needs..."

"Palm oil can be extracted from palm fruits, and palm oil can partially replace soybean oil, peanut oil, sunflower oil, lard and butter, etc. It is edible and can be used in industry. Compared with other oils, it is cheaper."

In fact, Li Yian is not only deliberately leaking information to Anna, but also opening up new markets. As we all know, Russia has a high demand for food and oil. As a typical businessman, Li Yian has never objected to doing business with the Russians. .

As for Nanyang, let’s just stand aside and focus on development.

Listening to the sighs of the workers, Li Yian nodded slightly with a frown. He knew in his heart that some things had to be resolved.

Anna asked somewhat puzzledly.

As night falls, plumes of cooking smoke rise from the plantation, which is the smoke from the workers' dormitories cooking dinner. Unlike natural gas in the city, simple stoves are used in the plantation.

If possible, Li Yian even hopes to introduce some women from Russia. After all, Russia is now a typical country with more women than men. Although Russia gained a reputation for defeating the Nazis, nearly 2000 million young people will always lie underground as a price. , of which more than 3 million are young men of school age. After the war, the ratio of young men to women of the same age reached an extremely alarming level. There was even a male-to-female ratio of 1:3, that is, there were three young women for one young man.

Although the war on the peninsula is raging now, it has nothing to do with it. It is too far away from Nanyang. In Nanyang now, just focus on construction. Since the Americans think they are the number one Blue Star, let them go to the peninsula to show off.

"Hey, if I had known better, I would have studied more seriously when I was in the training camp. If I had entered the factory, I might have married a Japanese woman!"

If Russia could open up immigration... For Nanyang, the problem of gender ratio would be fundamentally solved.

However, this kind of thing is just a thought. After all, with his steely character, he will never allow a large number of women to leave. Moreover, after the war, Russia's population dropped sharply, and there was a lot of waste left to be revitalized. Therefore, the policy of restricting population emigration was implemented. Under such circumstances, Russian women... must not be able to move forward!
Pity!
Palm oil matters!

It is important to Nanyang's economy. And it was very cheap for the market. Anna came to this conclusion almost subconsciously, and then she asked pretending to be confused. "So, is this why you inspected the plantation?"

Shaking his head, Li Yian looked at the moonlight shrouding the plantation, and the moonlight cast a mysterious veil on the land.

"I came here because there are some problems here!"

Li Yian said without any concealment.

"Workers in Nanyang plantations have the lowest income. The income problem is easy to solve. As the output of the plantations increases, profits also increase. Coupled with the use of machinery and equipment, the workers' income will definitely increase... But the biggest problem is the marriage problem, and because many plantations are far away from the city, most of the workers’ life-long affairs have not yet been resolved. This is millions of people! Their marriages must be resolved. After all, Nanyang If we want balanced development, these problems must be solved!”

Why plantations are said to be the "dark side" of Nanyang is not only because of the low income of plantation workers, but the most fundamental reason is that 90% of plantation workers are not married. If this problem is not solved, we will definitely not be able to sleep well.

After a pause, Li Yian said.

"Originally, this problem was a bit of a headache, but now it is easier to solve."

"Oh? Why is that?"

Anna asked curiously,
"Because the war on the peninsula, the war, will definitely bring a large number of casualties, such as the death of adult men, which will definitely lead to an imbalance in the ratio of men to women, and the war will also affect the income of Koreans. When the time comes, it will also be difficult to recruit Korean trainees. It would be easier..."

Looking at the plantation in front of him, Li Yian thought for a while and said.

"The plantation can also recruit trainees. There will be a mix of men and women, so the work won't be tiring."

What is your only expectation for the peninsula?
I am afraid that the war will take the lives of many Korean men. For Nanyang, this is definitely a good thing. Although Russian women cannot get it, Korean women are not bad!
Listening to the man's words, Anna couldn't help but smile.

"You are such a bad person. They are fighting a war? But you are interested in their women."

"This is the spirit of internationalism..."

Li Yian pulled the woman into his arms and said.

"They don't have time to take care of their own women, so it doesn't matter if the men from Nanyang take care of them for them. Let alone Korea, it's Russia. If they are willing to open their doors, Nanyang will also accept it..."

"Russia……"

Anna's blue eyes flashed and she asked.

"Really, really? Are you afraid that they are..."

Before the woman could speak, Li Yian's hands had already started to roam around the woman's slim yet plump body.

"What are you worried about? Is it a spy?"

The seemingly casual words made Ana's whole body tremble, and then she heard the man say again.

"If they are as beautiful as you, what if they are spies..."

While speaking, he had already embraced the woman into the room, looking at the woman's body in the moonlight, Li Yian smiled.

"The more such people the better..."

Since it's a beauty trap, let's use it... There is no way, this is a man, he will always make mistakes, and he will keep repeating some mistakes, under the peonies... let's be romantic!
This night, she must sing Conquer...
