Tomorrow's Ark is too real

Chapter 1132 "Fire"

For Victoria's past, Xia Feng never regarded it as something to show off, because for him, that part of the past was equally heavy.

If no one asked, he would never tell.

At the same time, just like to prove that he will not be bound by heavy memories, he will not deliberately hide from people he trusts.

There is no doubt that Zhou Liang has a certain degree of trust from him, so he can say.

Although he couldn't trust the two shadow guards sent from the mainland of Yan, he didn't take them into consideration. This kind of thing was no secret to those at the peak of power.

The breath of spring is getting stronger, the temperature is starting to warm up, and every inch of land is full of vitality.

Like the bagpipes, the people of Yandong began to plant rice seedlings and sow seeds. This year should be the best harvest year in their lives so far.

Under the management of Nishinomiya Pinglong, the Yandong Security Headquarters carried out a round of law and order rectification for the entire area.

Wandering warriors, bandits in the mountains, bullies in the village, homeless vagabonds, all unstable factors that may constitute crimes have been effectively dealt with.

Now Yandong has perfect laws and political and legal institutions to deal with all kinds of criminals. Correspondingly, punishment facilities such as detention centers and prisons have also been established.

The public security issue in Yandong has been effectively controlled.

As time passed day by day, the grass on Minister Liang's grave grew taller and taller.

Regarding the "unfortunate death" of Comrade Liang Zheng, Xia Feng reported it to the General Internal Affairs Department of Yan Kingdom.

In addition, he didn't even ask about the new minister. It seems that smart people are well aware of this matter.

Just as he thought, Yan Kingdom's supervision of the regional governor is not strict, at least not strict with him, the rule is that the dead are alive, and some things are only seen on the surface.

The governor only needs to do superficial work, and the General Department of Internal Affairs only wants to do superficial work.

This world is inherently unfair, and it will never be absolutely fair. The only difference lies in which end of the scale you are on.

With the spring breeze blowing across the land, the conflict between Dongzhou and Xichuan has become history, and the former rule of the Nishinomiya family and the Sakurabu family has gradually been forgotten.

Looking around, Yandong looks like a peaceful and prosperous age, but for the supreme power controller of this land, it is far from enough.

In the complete plan in Xia Feng's mind, what has been completed now is just a "novice tutorial".

First of all, if Yandong wants to develop further, it will face several serious problems.

First, the lack of permanent population.

According to the census of the Ministry of Civil Affairs of Yandong, the total population of Yandong is about 600 million.

Subtracting children and the elderly, the effective labor force is only about 7%, which is a pitifully small population.

Second, the serious shortage of productivity.

Due to the backwardness of technology and communication, the productivity of Yandong's various industries can be said to be unbearable to look at directly. To put it bluntly, it is the most effort and the least return.

For example, if there are old and young in a household, the couple get up early and stay late, plow in spring and harvest in autumn, so they can only provide food for the whole family. In addition, at most a few hundred catties of grain can be saved up to the sky.

But if it is placed in Victoria, this ratio will be completely reversed.

Let's not talk about it, let's take Bagpipe who lives with him on the south coast as an example. She boasted that she would support the entire staff of the sandworm breeding base by herself.

Of course, this statement is somewhat exaggerated, but it can also prove the huge gap in productivity.

It is also a husband and wife farming. The couple in Yandong can only support a family, while the farmer in Victoria can supply more than half of the town's food needs.

Apart from farming, this is the case in all walks of life in Yandong. This is the difference in productivity brought about by Originium technology, production technology, and efficient communication.

Xia Feng did a survey and found that Yandong's natural resources were not as scarce as he had imagined.

Especially in the Dongzhou region, there are many relatively large mining areas in the mountains, which contain several kinds of more precious ores.

In addition, in the Xichuan area, there is also a "golden mountain" that was cut out by his sword.

At the beginning, he and Ying Wulan fought decisively in the natural disaster, and in the end, he absorbed all the energy of the origin stone in the entire natural disaster area, and chopped Ying Wulan's bones with one sword.

In that battle, not only Ying Wulan was split, but even the entire land was split into an abyss that stretched for several kilometers.

After the incident, all the nearby villages and people fled, and people could not be sure what happened, and he himself did not give a detailed explanation for it.

The current mainstream theory is that due to natural disasters, a strong earthquake in the Xichuan area was triggered, which led to the ground subsidence.

After a period of time, the Yandong Special Zone was established, and the staff of the Yandong Resources Department conducted a round of investigations on all natural resources in the territory.

When the investigators came near the cracked land, they were surprised to find that there was a huge iron ore vein under the crack.

As for how huge this piece of iron mine is, it is impossible to find out with the technical means of Yandong Resources Department.

Roughly estimated, with Yandong's mining capacity, it should be impossible to mine until death.

Governor's Palace, inside the Governor's Office.

Xia Feng sat at his desk, staring at the many reports on production and construction on the desk, lost in thought.

Undoubtedly, Yandong is rich in exploitable resources, but at the current stage, Yandong does not have the ability to vigorously develop them.

For example, in the fishing industry, Yandong does not have a large-scale fishing fleet, and can only catch a limited amount of fish with the uneven fishing boats of fishermen along the coast.

Another example is the mining industry. Yandong does not have large-scale excavation equipment and lacks relevant technology. To put it bluntly, this mine can only be mined on the surface. If it is dug deeper, it may collapse at any point.

Others, such as manufacturing, agriculture, forestry, etc., are also facing the same problem.

It's like you want to eat barbecue, and now you have meat and seasonings on hand, but you don't have a fire.

You don't have the tools to make fire, and with your ability, you don't have the technology to make fire at all.

What Yandong lacks now is "a fire", but given the importance Yan Kingdom attaches to the Yandong Special Zone, it will not provide assistance at all.

The only thing that the Yan Kingdom's high-level officials want is the origin stone, other than that, they don't care about anything else, as long as the governor can ensure that the area under his jurisdiction can not starve to death.

Therefore, there is no hope for the inland of Yanland.

Arranging the materials on the desk back into the drawers, Xia Feng leaned back on the chair and let out a heavy breath.

He will not be content with the status quo, if he wants to play, he will play a big one.

In his plan, Yandong must become the second Longmen, and it must be achieved in a short period of time, and even surpassed in an all-round way.

At present, if you want to get "fire", there is only one way left.

It is better to rely on oneself than to rely on the sky and the earth, cough, and his allies, as well as his "wife and lord".
