Chapter 949 Local Economy
The Planning Institute is in urgent need of coal from the Jiazi Mine. In addition to the stable supply of coke for the blast furnace, the industrial system also has a great demand for various chemical by-products produced during the coking process.The supply of coking coal had to be expanded just to get the tar.

Tang Menglong was full of complaints - he didn't want to stay in that isolated Jiazi Coal Mine for a long time, but his attempts to seek a transfer abroad all failed, except that he returned to Lingao for a few months before and after Jiang Wenli gave birth. Always stay in the mine.

"...I almost became coal gangue in Jiazi Coal Mine..." he complained, "I can hardly remember what my son looks like."

Judging from the situation, Tang Menglong seemed to be waiting here for Lingao's call back, so Liu Xiang had to chat with him for a while.

"Chief! Please sign for receipt!" A person from the Confidentiality Department came in to interrupt.

Liu Xiang opened the kraft paper pocket covered with wax paint—the latest "two magazines and one newspaper": "Venus", "Weekly News" and "Internal Edition of Lingao Times".

It has been a long time since Tang Menglong read the two magazines and one newspaper—he hasn't seen "Mouthpiece" for several days since the shipping on the Nandu River stopped.

Liu Xiang took out the "Weekly News" compiled by the internal BBS, and handed the others to Tang Menglong.

"Drink! Xiao Liu, after reading it, I found out when I went back to the author. This article was written by you!" Tang Menglong knocked on the front page headline, and said in surprise: "This article is powerful enough!"

"Show your ugliness! The firepower is not very good. Look at this article, "Wenlan River Can Be Renamed as Beautiful River", written by those who are engaged in environmental protection. There is also this one, the title will not be mentioned, written by Queen Du This is called fighting power!" Liu Xiang also said, patting the titles of several pages in his hand.

"It's not the same, it's not the same!" Tang Menglong knew very well in his heart that those few people, including Queen Du, wrote it. Although the firepower was strong enough, it was a menstruation project on the forum, and they came every few months.Comrade Xiao Liu in front of you wrote this article, don’t look at him just analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of star logistics topology and ring logistics topology. Take the harp and sing."

"Xiao Liu, what kind of layout do you want here?" Tang Menglong asked.

"When I posted this, I also sent an application to the Planning Institute, wanting to transfer some of the coconut oil and wood industry. After all, these are all local raw materials. Instead of transporting raw materials to Lingao for processing, I think it is better to be in Qiongshan After processing the transported products, it can also drive and strengthen the economic ties between the two places.”

Tang Menglong mulled over the words "local raw materials" and "economic ties" for a while, and asked Liu Xiang, "I said, Xiao Liu, is there any industry in our mine that can strengthen ties with Qiongshan?"

"What? Not enough yellow tickets?" Liu Xiang jokingly said.

"How can it be!"

"Hehehe, just kidding."

"To be honest, there are a lot of production tasks, and the workers are working hard. But the coal can't be transported out, so it has to be piled up. Especially in recent months, the morale of the workers is not high."

Tang Menglong wanted to provide some benefits to the workers, but "you don't get paid for nothing", and the strict salary system made Tang Menglong helpless.Although the feet are all black gold, except for the industrial giants of Lingao, there is no second buyer who needs such a large production capacity.

"Well, I have a way here. But the problem is that some things need to be decided by the higher authorities." Liu Xiang thought for a while, and said to Tang Menglong: "Look, no matter whether the upper authorities approve my application or not, here always have to approve it." Disaster relief. Disaster relief requires rebuilding damaged houses, repairing damaged land and irrigation facilities, and scrambling to harvest and plant. The Changchang coal you have is famous for two things. One is that there is a lot of gangue, and the other is It is high humus. If the policy allows, you can produce hollow brick cement and peat fertilizer by yourself. This is necessary for the county to fight disasters and self-rescue. Even if this wave of market is over, there will be very few bricks to give for various constructions in the future Fertilizer?"

"Well, your thinking is quite broad!" Tang Menglong nodded again and again, "This approach can indeed solve big problems! Coal gangue alone can solve big problems."

The coal gangue produced by the coal washing plant of Jiazi Coal Mine has caused a certain degree of public nuisance in the local area. A large amount of coal gangue has accumulated on the Nandu River, which not only pollutes the water source, but also occupies a large amount of land. The torrential rain caused the coal gangue hills by the river to collapse into the river.

"But it's not enough for me to fight for this matter... After all, Jiazi Coal Mine is an enterprise directly under the central government..." Liu Xiang said.

Tang Menglong smiled: "Okay, I understand, I will apply for this matter. Supporting the local economy should be the focus of the planning institute's consideration?"

Qiongshan's positive activities have achieved certain responses.In particular, Mo Xiaoan and Wu Kuangming have a strong interest in opening up new industrial enterprises in Qiongshan, especially the forestry department. It is becoming more and more difficult to obtain raw materials in Lingao. When they arrive in Qiongshan, they can rely on the Nandu River The natural water system is used from drifting wood from mountainous areas such as Ding'an in the upper reaches to the nearest downstream, and Haikou Port in Qiongshan is currently not well utilized and can be used as an import port for wood.

As for Mo Xiaoan, setting up a light industry processing enterprise in Qiongshan also has advantages.Qiongshan and Wenchang to the east are traditional agricultural counties in Hainan.There is a large area of ​​plains, and the water system is relatively developed, so the development of agriculture has great advantages.The light industry under the Mo Xiaoan system focuses on the processing of agricultural and sideline products. Of course, the closer to the place of production, the more convenient it is.In particular, Wenchang is also the main coconut producing area in Hainan Island, and Qiongshan is the distribution center for dried coconut exports in Hainan Island. Setting up a copra processing enterprise here can monopolize the circulation trade of copra in the whole island.

As for the Council of Agriculture, Wu Nanhai has long coveted the land in Qiongshan—the large flood plains on both sides of the Nandu River are simply natural large farms.Whether it is planting rice or promoting sugarcane planting, there is a lot to do.Especially in sugarcane planting, Wu Nanhai has great expectations.As an important cash crop, the income from sugarcane is now the main source of income for the Cross Group.

However, Wu Nanhai is very worried about the land situation in Qiongshan: Based on his experience, most of such good land has already been developed. It is said to be an obstacle.Wu Nanhai has always advocated the rich peasant economy.Although he also has a strong interest in intensive state-owned farms after running a demonstration farm in Lingao—of course, Wu Nanhai also knows that this is difficult. State-owned farms rely on the direct guidance and management of veterans, and they must be The bureaucracy bloats and takes up too many administrative staff.

The most ideal agricultural model in Wu Nanhai's mind is still the European style of the old time and space: small and medium-sized intensive farms with the family as the basic unit and employing no more than ten workers.

While all parties were engaged in intensive private lobbying activities, the situation in Qiongshan had quietly changed.Under the arrangement of Yang Yun and others, the victims of the disaster in Qiongshan began a large-scale exodus of confessions. A week later, nearly 4000 refugees were recruited in Qiongshan to leave the area.The outflow of large numbers of refugees did not cause panic among the local gentry at the beginning, because they thought that the Australians were doing nothing more than work-for-work relief.Except for some refugees who have debts, and the landowners are afraid that the debt will be lost after the outflow, most of the big households even feel relieved that the outflow of the victims-this not only exempts them from their relief obligations, but also makes the big households most afraid of "noise". "Reduced to a minimum.

However, as the truth about refugee workers began to emerge: the long-term tenant workers went to work as "workers" for Australians.This made the rich people panic, and the generous treatment given by the Australians to their subordinates and the reputation of being "used to deceive people" also spread to Qiongshan. Obviously, once these mud legs eat the food of the Australians, they are unlikely to come back to be Tenants and long-term laborers.This creates a dreaded problem:

Who will plant the land?No matter how much money one has and how much land one owns, it is impossible for anyone to get anything out of the land.

In the past, big households were not too worried about such things, even though Hainan Island is sparsely populated and has a chronic labor shortage.However, Qiongshan, as the first county, has a capital effect, and Haikou Port is the gateway to Hainan Island, and the agricultural conditions are also the best. Supplements the local agricultural population.

Now, the foreign population imported from the mainland has completely disappeared—Australians have a great appetite for immigrants. Not only do they organize a large number of transshipment of mainland immigrants, but when they control the Qiongzhou Strait and ports, all Fujianese who landed locally Immigrants from Guangdong were forcibly detained and transferred to Lingao by Australians when they landed.Now that such a drastic method is adopted, it is obvious that there will not be enough people to farm the land in a short time.

This blow is simply fatal to the big players.For a while, the voice was soup.The big households gathered together to discuss countermeasures like a mourning concubine, and some people went to Hai Shuzu and asked him to intercede, asking the Australians to stop recruiting immediately and repatriate some of them as soon as possible.

Hai Shuzu didn't care much about this at first - the Hai family didn't have much land, and after joining the Tiandihui, they no longer recruited tenants, and all hired long-term workers, and the long-term workers were recruited and managed by the Tiandihui.He is neither in charge of recruiting nor overseeing work, nor does he even know how much to pay.The agreement between Tiandihui and the Hai family is all-inclusive, which means that Tiandihui is the big tenant of the Hai family.As long as the sea family is given a certain share in proportion at the end of the year, it will be fine.
