Rise of the Argentine Empire

“The Radical Party headquarters isn't always reliable.”

Saint Hesser was giving a graduation lecture to the 28 young party members in front of him. These were the first batch he had selected and cultivated from young people.

“Judging from this national event, the divisions within our party are too great. At least three different viewpoints exist simultaneously.”

Saint Hesser paused and said to them.

“Principal, what are the three specific viewpoints? Could you explain them to us?”

A young man raised his hand and stood up.

“The first viewpoint is to support the Church and overthrow Biron.”

Saint Hesser gestured for the young man named Eureka to sit down.

“They are mainly local factions, and they have a close relationship with the Church. They consider themselves the conservatives within the party, mainly the Cordoba Province branch and the Santa Fe Province branch.”

“The second viewpoint is to ignore these and wait for the Church and other forces to fight to the end before stepping in to seize the fruits of victory. This group is the largest, led by the current chairman of the committee, Arturo. Actually, I agree with this viewpoint, after all, our strength is indeed relatively limited. At the same time, Arturo is also a thorough radical, I won’t talk about his experience.”

“The third is the party's conservative faction led by Barwin, the third-in-command. He is a descendant of a minority ethnic group, graduated from the Law Department of La Plata University, joined the Radical Party in 1930, was elected as a member of the Buenos Aires Provincial Assembly in 1931, and was elected as a member of the National Senate twice in 1946 and 1948. He ran for president in 1951, but did not receive party support.”

Saint Hesser introduced some specific situations of the four major routes and five major factions of the Radical Party to these students. Like the Justice Party, the Radical Party is also a compatible political party, which means it is difficult to form a common consciousness. As long as a normal person has a decent job, swears under the flag, and pays a certain fee every year, they can join, which is quite casual, with freedom of entry and exit.

This also leads to the poor cohesion of the Radical Party, forming independent hilltops, and then forming factions.

The core of these hilltops is individuals like Saint Hesser, and Arturo currently has the support of two factions and has obtained the support of many 'retail investors,' that is, centrists.

“I personally think this is very harmful, and our Radical Party does not have an independent economic and financial source, so it is easily influenced by other forces.”

“We must also establish our own faction. We are the Southern faction, and we will continue to expand our influence.”

The Radical Party branch in Blanca City is currently distributed in 8 districts, with the core number exceeding one hundred people, and ordinary party members already exceeding 1,000. This is still the result of Saint Hesser's deliberate control.

Better to have quality over quantity, especially in the early stages, the role of the core is very important.

“As long as everyone works hard, our Radical Party will provide a huge platform.”

Saint Hesser's way of selecting talents in the Radical Party is completely different from selecting talents in those companies.

In companies, as long as you have the ability, you can expand and expand by any means, and the requirements for other aspects are relatively low, so it often develops very quickly, like a pack of wolves. The most important core is interest, development, and the company's interests first, like raising Gu.

But the Radical Party is a bit different, it is a bit anti-interest, or a bit anti-human nature.

The first is that the candidates should be loyal, fair, capable, meticulous, patient, and trusted by superiors and subordinates, so that

it meets the needs of the party's development.

Saint Hesser understands, assesses, and selects cadres, and provides opinions to the committee.

Saint Hesser established branch groups in each of the 8 districts, and sent the young people he favored and capable one by one to be responsible for establishing a complete branch organization.

The Radical Party is not Saint Hesser's one-man show. When the number of people in Blanca City exceeded 50, he established a committee and carried out work through the committee.

The main force of the Radical Party is in the relatively developed central and northern regions of Argentina, and the south is a barren land. Blanca City is the largest city at the junction of the north and south regions.

Now is the time to continue to expand, continue to expand to the south.

“I will convene a meeting for specific planning, and I hope everyone will be able to complete the tasks assigned by the organization seriously and accurately.”

“Yes, Principal.”

“In recent months, our Radical Party branch has made rapid progress, which has also made many people feel impetuous. I don’t think this is right. My solution to this is to do more inspections and more grassroots management work, and treat it with a pragmatic attitude.”

“At the same time, major domestic and foreign events and current affairs should be carefully studied and researched, and history should be combined with the specific actual situation of Argentina to form your own set of methodology, and constantly learn and update your knowledge.”

“When encountering organizational members with relatively low education levels, you should try to help them and encourage them to read more books and newspapers to improve their cultural level.”

In addition to personal charm, one of the important reasons why Saint Hesser can gain the support of the current political parties in Blanca City is because of his first-class money-making skills.

“I can allow you not to be idealists, and I also support you to get more returns for your efforts, but at the same time, I also think that it is not enough to only do management work, but also to do more technical work and learn more about factories.”

With money, you can recruit troops and buy horses to attract outstanding talents. Blanca City is a remote area. The young people who came from the capital have better treatment than in Blanca City, and there are additional allowances here.

In addition to often getting a lot of funds from outside, Saint Hesser also engages in borrowing chickens to lay eggs, especially after obtaining authorization from the headquarters, using various methods to earn money for the Radical Party.

In recent months, the Blanca City Radical Party branch has obtained the first pot of gold through the large platform of the Municipal Investment Promotion Department.

Then he successively owned a paper mill, a printing factory, and two newspapers, which created a surplus of several million pesos for the Radical Party last month.

“Several factories and newspapers directly under our Radical Party are developing very well, but some people think that they have made great contributions and are unwilling to listen to our arrangements for work, and do not obey organizational management, which has caused a very bad influence. I hope everyone can be vigilant in their hearts. Now the bottom line of our branch's work is that individuals need to obey the organization, subordinates obey superiors, and the minority obeys the majority.”

San Jose also talked to him several times, but he was still unwilling to go to a difficult job, and threatened to quit from time to time. Finally, after a show of hands by the entire branch committee, it was agreed to expel Carolli from the Radical Party and make a public announcement to the entire branch to form a deterrent.

“Since we have joined our Radical Party, we should abide by various rules and regulations and abide by organizational discipline. As long as a specific resolution is formed within our Radical Civic Union, our members should execute it quickly and accurately. This is also one of the bottom lines of our work.”

“Execution is an important criterion for judging our work ability, but I have put forward a higher requirement, which is to be fast and accurate. This is the internal consensus that our branch has formed in the past six months, and it is also the reason why we are developing so fast and well now.”

San Jose has built the Radical Party system of the branch very well through these simple and limited basic work principles. This is fundamental.

At this meeting, San Jose chatted with these young trainees a lot. They are all good seedlings and can continue to enrich and expand the 8 branches.

The various resources of the Radical Party in Blanca City are slowly becoming richer, and there are no more financial difficulties.

These 8 branches can also draw out some people to establish more organizational branches in some new cities in the south, and truly form a stable southern system.

He insists on having a separate conversation with each graduate trainee. A mature and combat-effective Radical Party cannot be separated from these young blood.

“The country is ours, and it is also yours, but the future is ultimately yours. If the country has difficulties, our young people also have the responsibility to help our motherland get out of trouble. The country needs you.”

San Jose patted the young man in front of him on the shoulder and said.

Progress in ideology, economy, and organization has created the growth of this branch.

The committee quickly assigned jobs to this group of graduates, filling their substitute positions.

… …

Blanca City, City Hall, Mayor's Office,

San Jose put on his glasses, took a book from the bookshelf, and began to study. He also took notes from time to time. Several thick notebooks had already accumulated next to him.

The chaos in Argentina's situation during this period, although not the center of the storm, has had a very big impact on many Argentines, causing many people's thoughts to fall into chaos.

He can calm down and study more carefully. During his many lectures at the Radical Party School, he also demonstrated many of his shortcomings in order to improve himself.

Originally, his study was full of flashy books, which Otto used to show off.

They have been put away by him and stored in the warehouse.

Recently, he asked people to purchase a batch of Russian original, German original and Chinese translated versions of books.

He was no longer as cautious and submissive as he was in Cordoba, and directly and openly placed them on the table.

When he received these subordinates in his office, he still felt a little confused.

Full of style.

As the actual mayor of Blanca City, he cannot leave the city for more than 10 days and must report his whereabouts to the City Council at all times.

But as long as he can grasp more power in Blanca City, he doesn't care too much.

The Emperor is far away.

During his tenure as Deputy Mayor, San Jose also used the power in his hands to help expand the scale of the Radical Party.

Moreover, from the investment promotion department's invitation to cooperate with companies, trade unions have also begun to be established, but they have not been transferred to the Justicialist Party, but have been taken away by the Radical Party.

San Jose will not allow his company to have a master, but the Radical Party has him, so it is ultimately a mutual accomplishment.

For example, the early Radical Party work for Maya Chemical's 50,000-ton monomeric synthetic ammonia fertilizer plant is more troublesome, after all, this is not a purely economic behavior.

Moreover, there are many rural farms in Blanca City, and the Radical Party is also working hard to help them establish cooperatives to improve their ability to resist risks and competitiveness.

Argentina's national conditions are quite complicated. To make trouble in the south, economic construction must be the first priority.

As he took control of the purse strings of Blanca City, he began to do a new round of things.

Establish some state-owned enterprises belonging to Blanca City.

At present, Blanca City's financial resources come from various loans, and Blanca City's specialty is various raw material products.

Establishing a trading company is the most suitable way, after all, the finances are too limited.

The cost is low, and the profit is not low, and it can also help your company sell goods.

Under his proposal, Blanca City Import and Export Trading Company was officially established, which is also the first state-owned enterprise in Blanca City.

The first batch of members will also be arranged to join the Radical Party.

Among the young people in the Radical Party, there are some who have a talent for business management.

If you let him do community work or publicity, it is inappropriate and a huge waste of talent.

Soon, the import and export trading company determined the various materials for export.

“Do whatever makes money, especially with so much grain in stock here.”

San Jose spent all kinds of inventory in Blanca City in the first two months.

It is very reasonable to leave the rest to the people of the import and export trading company.

The trade categories started from the two categories of grain and meat, and plunged directly into it.

Argentina has had a bumper harvest in the past two years, and the United States has suppressed the Argentine grain market.

“The purchase of agricultural products is not only related to the development of our city, but also an important guarantee for our import and export trading company.”

“We must ensure that the purchase price is not lower than the wholesale price. We must not be too harsh and pay attention to improving the lives of farmers and herdsmen, and truly mobilize their enthusiasm for production.”

San Jose warned and reminded.

“Don’t take profit as the primary task, but on the premise of increasing the finances of our city hall, we can develop our city.”

There are a lot of tricks in purchasing.

And the scale of the import and export company is quite large.

“Several of you have worked in rice paddies and know how difficult agriculture is.”

San Jose also turned his attention to the rich mineral resources.

This is the next goal of the import and export trading company.

There are many mineral resources around Blanca City, which can be mined and sold.

… …

On the other side,

Maya Chemical is conducting an inspection of the factory site. Synthetic ammonia is a very dangerous factory and cannot be too close to the city.

“Boss, according to our experience in San Martin City, the various metal materials required to build a 50,000-ton synthetic ammonia plant per year are about 30,000 tons, of which nearly 10,000 tons are imported from abroad, and about 20,000 tons are supplied by domestic production, mainly due to the technological breakthrough of special steel.”

With the establishment of the special steel plant and the introduction of German technology, the special steel plant has been able to climb the slope well and is in short supply.

San Jose wants to accelerate the development of the nitrogen fertilizer industry and implement Argentina's agricultural green revolution. These fertilizer plants and pesticide plants are the foundation.

After technical division, it originally took 2 years to build a fertilizer plant.
