The First Warlord of the Republic of China

Chapter 271 Consumption and Accumulation

.

In February, the Republic of China ushered in the Spring Festival again.

After a year of busy production, the common people returned home one after another, reunited with their families, and enjoyed the festive atmosphere and leisure.

The Spring Festival in the Republic of China is the festival with the most holidays, with ten days off.

Another festival is Ching Ming Festival, with a three-day holiday.There are also three days off for the Dragon Boat Festival, one day off for the Qixi Festival, one day off for the Double Ninth Festival, and three days off for the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Seven days off for Double Tenth. [

The Double Tenth Festival is the National Day of the Republic of China. On October 1911, 10, the Jiangbei Patrol Battalion in Jiangyu took the lead in the uprising, followed by the outbreak of the Wuchang Uprising, which opened the prelude to the overthrow of the Qing Dynasty.

After the founding of the Republic of China, October 10 was designated as the National Day, also known as Double Ten Day.

Chinese New Year, in the understanding of Westerners, is the Chinese carnival.

This year's Spring Festival has a lot more commodities. Since the Republic of China put construction in the interior, the supply of materials has become more and more sufficient.

Fish from various seas around the world, fruits from the tropics, fur coats from Russia, fashion clothing from garment factories, traditional New Year’s goods from all provinces across the country, sugar and candy from Taiwan, Guangxi, Hainan and other regions.

There are also cars, electrical appliances, and clocks.

All kinds of New Year's goods and commodities are sold extremely well before the Spring Festival. After a year of productive labor, ordinary people have accumulated a lot of money in their pockets.

As wages continue to rise, ordinary people have more and more money in their pockets.

Most of the upper-middle-class people have moved into Zanxin's houses. The floor is covered with Zanxin's furniture, cabinets, and bookcases.

Putting on a tape recorder, listening to music and the radio, the family spent the Spring Festival warmly.

The money in the pockets of low-income families is also very affluent in terms of life. Many of them have moved into low-rent housing, and some low-income families have also bought commercial housing.But it's not built yet.

Since commercial housing in the Republic of China must be purchased for three years before it can be traded, and the transaction tax on second-hand housing is relatively high, few people speculate in real estate.

The targets of real estate speculation are generally those high-end housing, but there are not many people who speculate in real estate.

Investment projects are everywhere now, and investing in houses is the investment project with the least policy protection. Everyone knows that the "government" is vigorously cracking down on real estate speculation. Maybe one day the policy changes, and there will be heavy losses.

Moreover, the price of high-end housing is generally very high. When the consortium sells high-end housing, they kill pigs without mercy.As long as there is a market, the price will be raised.

The so-called the way of heaven damages more than makes up for what is not enough, and the way of man gives more than what is lacking.

The consortium is taking the route of 'replenish the excess while making up for the deficiency'.

Ordinary housing is absolutely no real estate speculators dare to step into this 'minefield'.In addition, the "government" has launched a large number of low-rent housing. If the price of ordinary rental housing is high, ordinary people don't have to buy it, and living in low-rent housing is quite comfortable.

After the income of ordinary people increased, a large number of people moved from the countryside to the cities.The reasonable price of ordinary housing, so there is no violent social conflict. [

At the same time, those bachelors who can't marry a wife can also buy a Russian wife to go home, or marry a woman from a dependent country, which is also relatively easy.

This has reduced social conflicts a lot.

However, in this era when productivity cannot be restored to a Datong society, and social contradictions are the driving force for development, it is impossible to achieve equalization.

There is still a gap between the lives of low-income groups and middle-to-high-income groups, but low-income groups can also live comfortably.

The main contradiction is that.Rich people live in big houses, while low-income groups live in ordinary houses, and their living standards are different.

But this contradiction is not severe.Ordinary people will also feel that there is nothing wrong with living in an ordinary house. Although the food is not as good as the rich, they can still eat richly, but it is not so refined.

Although the wife is not so good.But you can marry a foreign woman and live a comfortable life.

certainly.In order to live in a better house, live a higher quality of life, marry a better wife, and enjoy a better life, you still have to work hard.

Such an appropriate contradiction maintains the driving force of social development, but does not prevent the contradiction from being too severe and causing class antagonism and turmoil.

Whether it is the upper-middle class or the lower class, everyone is full of hope for the future at this time.

During the whole Spring Festival, people are full of joy, and people are welcoming the arrival of "Ji Wei Nian".In this fleeting year, the soil is prosperous, and people who lack soil will have better luck.

As the so-called feng shui turns, there are always peaks and troughs in life.

Some people suddenly get rich after decades of frustration. This is unbelievable to ordinary people, but it is a very normal phenomenon in the eyes of fortune tellers.

But personal destiny is still affected by the social environment and space.

In a country with a sound legal system, there is little chance of getting rich and going astray.When you are unlucky, the factors of ruining your wealth and family are also reduced.

The country is often closely related to the destiny of the individual.

A person's fate is like a magnet. When you are lucky, you will attract good things, and when you are unlucky, you will attract bad things to you.

At this time, what we look at is the social results and the space we live in.

If you are in a very safe space, even if you encounter a bloody disaster, it will not be fulfilled if you don't run around.If you are lucky, if you hide in a ravine, even if you get rich, it may only be a little bit.

Different fates, in different ages, often end up differently.

Just like Yue Fei's Jiamu Yangblade grid, in peaceful times it would be a fatal fate, but in times of war, it can stabilize the country.

There are also emperors like Zhu Yuanzhang and Huang Taiji who have injured officials and injured their lives. In peaceful times, the luck of the government is too strong, and the result of confronting the government is to be crushed by the violent state organs. Be the emperor, Brother Hua, come to the pit quickly. [

The legal system, medical care, and system of the Republic of China have been gradually improved, and there are fewer pitfalls, but there are also fewer opportunities to get rich by crooked ways.

Life is like this, there are ups and downs, there are downs and downs, some people's luck is worse, maybe they have a hard life all their lives, and some people have better luck.Good luck in life.But more people have a mixture of good and bad luck. Generally, when they encounter bad luck, their health is poorer, and the social environment of the country is poorer.Even if they are in good health, they may be starved, or die of disease or social crime.

In a country with a good social security system, good medical conditions and a social system with few pitfalls, people can generally get through those bad luck.

This is why the average life expectancy in some countries is high, and the average life expectancy in some countries is low.

History of modern China.The reproductive survival rate is very low because there is no social security and no reliable medical system.Ordinary people have no money to save themselves, and many children who deserve to die in developed countries will die young.

At this time, the Republic of China has changed this social phenomenon. With a good social security system, the common people have money in their own pockets, and the medical system has also become popular.At the same time, Jingfang sent Chinese medicine to revival, social crimes were curbed, and ordinary people were generally able to survive the stage of extremely bad luck.

The reproductive survival rate in the Republic of China is constantly increasing, and the average life expectancy is also rising.

Especially after the comprehensive ban on drugs, the labor force has also begun to increase.Prior to this, Japan continued to export opium to China.Behind the Japanese is the British.

The main purpose of Japan's export of opium to China is to reduce China's labor force and turn the Chinese into the sick men of East Asia, so as to prevent their invasion.

Now the Republic of China basically does not see the shadow of drugs. The "government" and the gangsters are all in the fight against drugs, and taking drugs is a crime. Although there are still some drug dealers fighting against it, selling drugs in China is definitely a street thing.

Especially in recent years, the supply of agricultural products has become sufficient, and the breeding industry has also made great progress.With the continuous expansion of the ocean fishing industry, the nutritional supply of ordinary people has made a huge leap.Many ordinary people should have become thinner and thinner under the Manchu rule in the past, but their physiques have become stronger and their people have become plump.

In terms of clothing, self-made clothes are gradually being eliminated. With the increase in income and busy work, people have no time to make clothes by themselves, and making clothes by themselves is troublesome and not as good-looking as clothes from garment factories.As a result, finished garments from garment factories began to become the mainstream of the Republic of China.

Many of the clothing styles in the clothing factory were produced by Jiang Yu by copying the fashionable clothing of later generations, which made the rustic style of the past disappear quickly.

Refreshes the spirit of the people.

This is also a kind of packaging. If you want other countries to feel that China is strong and advanced, you must have an all-round packaging image.

This packaging appears to have been very successful in the Republic of China.

Especially after strengthening the nutritional supply of children, the appearance of those developing children, teenagers and girls is very different from that of the previous generation.

First of all, the height generally increased. People in the old era of the Manchu Qing Dynasty could not keep up with their nutrition. In addition, they had to do farm work and shoulder burdens at a very young age. Many people's backs were bent, and they naturally did not grow tall.Now that the nutrition has kept up, and the children have gone to school, the height growth will come naturally.

There are also more handsome men and beauties. In fact, whether people are good-looking or not, they have something in common with livestock.This rule can be observed from the raising of livestock, and the livestock that eat well must look glamorous.

Of course, people are more advanced creatures, because their fate is more complicated, so whether they look good or not depends on a person's aura.

There were not many beauties in the old days, mainly because many beauties were buried by heavy production and poor nutrition.

In the movies of the Republic of China, handsome men and beautiful women appear in a very high rate, which is also a kind of external publicity.With the rapid development of film technology and the fact that ordinary people have money to go to the cinema to watch movies, the film industry is booming in the Republic of China.

This is a country with a population of 5000 million people, plus movies can be exported to affiliated countries, which is a huge movie market with [-] million people.

Some older people may not like watching movies so much, but with the continuous growth of cultural groups, this market is growing dramatically.

With such a huge market, the quality of the film is naturally extremely high.

Because a good movie can rake in the box office, with such a high profit, it can naturally bear the extremely high shooting cost in other countries.

Although high cost is not necessarily related to quality, high quality is absolutely inseparable from high cost.

Later generations of Yankees cost hundreds of millions of dollars to make movies, and cars and buildings were blown up as if they were free of money. This has something to do with the size of their movie market.

At this time, the film market in the Republic of China has become the largest in the world, and consortiums monopolize movie theaters in cities across the country, and movie theaters in affiliated countries are also monopolized by consortiums.

Township movie theaters are run by private capitalists, and there is not much money to be made.

These movie theaters make the consortium make money every day, especially during the Spring Festival.Many people watch New Year's films, and watching movies has become a habit of most workers.

Especially during the Chinese New Year, taking the family to the cinema has become an increasingly common consumption.

The atmosphere of the festival is still so warm, and various folk performances are also staged during the Spring Festival.The children held lucky money and ate candy and snacks.

The adults pay New Year's greetings to each other and watch dramas and movies.

When the world's major powers are at war, China is a sea of ​​celebration, like a paradise on earth.The common people also cherish such peaceful times very much.They are thankful that the Republic of China is far from a large-scale all-out war.

……

In contrast, Russia at this time is gloomy and gloomy.

The country has been riddled with holes, and Lenin received the following statistical data.The intestines are moldy.

"There are only about 16 million men over the age of 450 left in the labor force! Now we can only recruit young soldiers." Trotsky touched his forehead.

"Also, the Chinese snatched most of our Russian women. In many cases, even the **-year-old girls were taken away by the Chinese. Women who can give birth are less than 600 million ... population growth in our Russia will be very difficult."

Lenin looked at Stalin, and Stalin was a little embarrassed.

It was he who insisted on annihilating the White Russian Army in Moscow. As a result, the Soviet Army killed and disabled soldiers reached 260 million, which caused great losses to the labor force that was not well-off.

The reason why the Soviet army was able to win the battle, in Stalin's view, was to rely on cannon fodder.

A lot of heroic, stupid and naive cannon fodder.

However, Russia at this time.After the labor force has been plundered in large quantities, it is obvious that there is not much cannon fodder for them to continue to limit their squandering.

Stalin lowered his head and said nothing, Lenin turned his head.Said: "How many young people are there?"

"There are still more than 10 million teenagers between the ages of 16 and 400. But when they grow up, some of the more than 400 million laborers are already old." Trotsky said, "The Chinese Our best population has taken most of it."

Lenin had a gloomy look on his face, after a while.His expression suddenly became firm, and he asked, "If those young soldiers are recruited, love will bloom like a flower. How many troops can we form in the spring?"

"It is still possible for the army to reach 400 million people, but there will be a shortage of supplies, and food production will be very tight." Trotsky replied, "If too many labors are dispatched to fight, it will inevitably cause a major famine this year."

"There is no war that is won without a price." Stalin said this sentence again at this time, saying: "For the great victory of socialism, a little famine can be endured. And we can Attribute the famine to the "government" of Belarus."

"This is not a little famine, but a big famine." Trotsky was a little angry. Stalin's attitude of completely disregarding the life and death of the people made him doubt whether this guy's revolutionary ideas were pure.

"However, if we do not lead the great bourgeoisie to victory, many more people will die. And if we win, we will suffer only a temporary famine. If we fail, all the bourgeoisie will be in a long-term crisis." In the midst of suffering and hunger. If we give up seeking victory, will those comrades who sacrificed their lives for the bourgeois revolution die in vain?" Stalin retorted, causing Trotsky to open his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say. refute.

But Trotsky understood that if too many were conscripted, the consequences would be dire.

After all, if those laborers are put into agricultural production, they can not only feed themselves, but also feed others.But if you go to fight, then not only can you not support yourself, but you can't support others, and you have to rely on others to support you.

Yes, responsibility for the famine can be offloaded to the enemy.

However, it is certain that people will starve to death, and perhaps a large number of people will starve to death.

"Well! Comrade Stalin's ideological consciousness is worthy of recognition." Lenin pondered for a while, fully affirming Stalin's opinion.Trotsky took off his military cap, stroked his forehead and said nothing.

"As long as we form a superior force, we will be able to invade the east bank of the Volga River and into Siberia. In terms of food, we can adopt the method of supporting war with war. The "government" of Belarus is aided by the Chinese, and there should be a lot of food. ’” Stalin continued: “As long as we annihilate the Belarusian ‘government’, then we will have plenty of food and may be able to survive this little famine.”

Stalin still insisted on using 'little famine' to describe the coming famine. He went on to say: "And now that the Chinese have given up continuing to intervene in Russia by force, this is a great opportunity. If it is delayed, maybe the Chinese will recover. With aid to the evil Belarusian "government", it will not only be difficult for us to eliminate them, but there is also the risk of being eliminated."

"Yes, Comrade Stalin's words are very reasonable." Lenin nodded again, "We must not only face the war bravely, but also be prepared for a long-term struggle."

Soon after, the Soviet Army began recruiting young soldiers.

Millions of young soldiers have been conscripted into the army, ready to join the great **** war.On the Belarus side, the military has expanded to 200 million.

The two sides have gone completely crazy for the sake of war.

The Russian civil war was more destructive than the stalemate war in Europe.

Spring has come, everything is gradually recovering, and war is also recovering on the land of Europe and Russia.

After the Spring Festival, China has entered a new year of busy production and construction, while Europeans and Russians are still busy preparing for war.

While consuming, while accumulating.

Under the ebb and flow, the power of China and the Caucasian world has begun to enter the stage of distance.

This year, the iron ore output of the Republic of China soared, a large number of mines began to be put into operation, and more merchant ships were put into overseas raw material transportation.

All this prompted the rapid growth of steel production in the Republic of China. In the second month of the lunar calendar, the steel production of the Republic of China far surpassed that of the United States.
