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.
The rows of high-rise buildings and the 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, making 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, and so and so gave birth to a baby.
Whenever they talk about this, their voices are full of envy.
"Hey, if I had known it, 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 long ago!"
"Then No, Brother Liu, you came here three years ago. If you had joined the factory, your children might be able to do soy sauce by now.”
"Hey, this is fate..."
Listening to their sighs, Li Yi'an frowned. In the past few days, he has been working as a "Jiahe Company employee" Inspecting the plantations, sometimes, as now, working among the workers, working with them, shoveling down bunches of palm fruit.
Although the war on the peninsula is raging now, it has nothing to do with it. It is too far away from Nanyang. Now in Nanyang, just focus on construction. Since the Americans think they are the number one Blue Star, let them go to the peninsula to show off.
As for Nanyang, let’s just stand aside and concentrate on development.
Actually, the reason why Li Yian came out to inspect was not to hide from the Americans. After all, some things cannot be avoided,
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.
As night falls, wisps of cooking smoke rise from the plantation, which is the smoke from cooking dinner in the workers' dormitories - unlike natural gas in the city, simple stoves are used in the plantation.
"Oil palm... will become the agricultural backbone of Nanyang in the future."
Standing under the corridor of the dormitory, looking at the smoke from the kitchen in the distance, Li Yi'an said.
“Is it useful?”
Anna asked somewhat puzzledly.
"Palm oil can be extracted from palm fruit, and palm oil can partially replace soybean oil, peanut oil, sunflower oil, lard and butter, etc. It can be eaten and can be used in industry. Compared with other oils, its The price is even cheaper."
Li Yian looked at the "swallow" beside him and said.
“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...”
In fact, Li Yian This 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.
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 30 million young people will always lie underground as a price. , of which more than 20 million are young men of school age. After the war, the ratio of young men to women of the same age reached an astonishing level, and there was even a male-to-female ratio of 3:1, that is, there were three young women for one young man.
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 a 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!
What a pity!
Palm oil is important!
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, this is also the reason why you inspected the plantation?"
Shaking his head, Li Yian looked at the moonlight shrouding the plantation, and the moonlight covered the land with a layer of mystery. veil.
“I came here because there are some problems here!”
Li Yian said without concealing anything.
"Workers in Nanyang plantations have the lowest income. The income problem is easy to solve. As the output of the plantation 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 always be solved! ”
Why plantations are said to be the “dark side” of Nanyang is not only because of the low income of plantation workers, the most fundamental reason is that 90% of planting None of the garden workers are married. If this problem is not solved, they 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 this?”
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 South Korea. With a person’s income, it will be easier to recruit Korean trainees..."
Looking at the plantation in front of him, Li Yian thought for a while and said.
"The plantation can also recruit trainees, men and women are matched, so the work is not 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."
"I am in 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. Let alone Korea, it's Russia. If they are willing to open the door, Nanyang will also accept it..."
"Russia... ..."
Ana's blue eyes flashed and she asked.
"Really, really? Aren't 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 Anna's whole body tremble, and then she heard the man say again.
"If they are all as beautiful as you, so 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. road.
“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!
On this night, she must sing Conquer...
