Chapter 1106 Open Market


Chapter 1106 Opening the Market

Looking at the past life, almost any capable country will work hard on agricultural technology. For example, in the past life, the United States was not only the country that used the most pesticides and fertilizers in the world, but also genetically modified technology in agriculture. The application rate exceeds 40%, and the breeding industry is the hardest hit area by the use of various chemicals.

So East Africa will naturally consolidate its advantages in the agricultural field. In addition to mechanization, various related agricultural technologies are the focus of East Africa's current efforts.

This makes East Africa the third largest agricultural research and development center in the world after Europe and the United States. As the only tropical power in the world, the focus of East Africa's agricultural research is very different from that of Europe and the United States.

Take staple foods as an example. European and American countries will definitely tend to research temperate agricultural products such as wheat, while East Africa focuses on (sub)tropical agricultural products such as rice.

Andre said to He Bo and others: "Before hybrid rice technology is completely mature, as long as we do our job well, we will definitely open up new growth points for East African agriculture in the future."

"Guangye Rice" The drought-tolerant feature is what I like the most. Among the major rice-growing countries in the world, East Africa is a region with relatively low rainfall. Although my country has greatly improved its agricultural irrigation conditions through large-scale water conservancy project construction, there are still some areas , it is destined not to be solved by water conservancy construction alone.”

“For example, the natural climate with low precipitation in the west of Dodoma City cannot be changed by human power at all. If we can cultivate it through hybrid technology. Developing relatively drought-tolerant rice varieties can greatly improve agricultural planting conditions in arid or semi-arid areas of our country.”

Following Professor Andre’s explanation, He Bo and other members of the Luanda Agricultural Research Institute also I realize the significance of what I am doing now.

In the final analysis, the natural agricultural endowment of East Africa is considered to be the best in the entire African continent, but in the final analysis, if we want to close the gap with Europe and the United States, we still need to rely on technological level.

Andre said to them sincerely: "Nowadays, our country's industry and science are developing at an extremely fast pace, and knowledge is updated and iterated quickly, so you have a lot of new knowledge to learn, so you must pay more attention to relevant research at home and abroad, so that you can move forward in the future. "

City of Harare.

With the implementation of the Third Five-Year Plan, Harare, the city with the most developed heavy industry in East Africa, is quietly changing.

As for Mbeya, which was originally the center of heavy industry in East Africa, it has begun to transform as early as the 1990s. It has now become one of the R&D and academic exchange centers in East Africa. With the transformation of industrial investment structure , Mbeya has completely become a comprehensive city similar to Dar es Salaam and Mombasa, with almost no shortcomings.

Harare, the most important heavy industry city in East Africa, is now also facing transformation pressure. As the development of light industry has become a key national strategy, cities like Harare, which are highly biased, have obviously become the focus of East Africa's economic transformation.

In 1911, the first step of Harare's reform was to liberalize some light industrial investment areas.

It is worth noting that East Africa is a planned economy country, which does not mean that the gap between rich and poor in East Africa is not large. In order to control the national resources, East Africa pays quite high compensation to the meritorious people in East Africa.

These people include government officials, workers in the scientific research field, military personnel, retirees, martyr families, nobles, etc.

In the past, compensation for these personnel in East Africa was mainly achieved in the form of high subsidies and social benefits, such as various forms of subsidies, stable sources of wages, distribution of material rewards, etc.

Therefore, this group of people actually holds a very considerable amount of social wealth. However, in the past, East Africa almost monopolized most of the means of production, and their wealth could not be spread to the social level in the form of investment. Now East Africa has begun to experimentally open up part of the investment market. This provides them with opportunities.

Not only that, in addition to the "nobles" in East Africa, ordinary people in East Africa have actually accumulated a lot. The salary level in East Africa is not low in the world. As long as they budget carefully, many families generally Have a certain amount of savings.

According to the municipal announcement of Harare on September 2, 1911, many people saw the opportunity. According to the announcement, Harare City will relax investment restrictions in more than 100 industries such as catering, accommodation, and garment production, and allow private participation in industrial business activities on the announcement list.

Berlin State Hotel, Harare.

"Anka, do you really want to resign and start a business? You must know that your skills are not very good. If you are not favored by the market, you will lose your job, but you will not have a stable salary."

In Prussia Wang, the chef at Berlin's state-owned hotel, said to his young apprentice Anka.

Anka: "Master, I still want to give it a try. Although there are droughts and floods in state-owned hotels, I believe that as long as I can provide better services, I will be able to quickly open up the catering market."

The catering industry in East Africa is a very strange existence just like the Soviet Union or the Special Period of the Far Eastern Empire in the past. Due to policy restrictions, there was almost no private catering industry in East Africa before.

This has resulted in a lack of competition in the catering industry in East Africa. Various state-owned hotels or restaurants have extremely poor service attitudes and perfunctory food quality, but ordinary East African people have no choice at all.

Now that the city of Harare has relaxed investment restrictions in the catering industry, Anka sees this as his own opportunity. Because of many years of work, Anka is not optimistic about his future in a state-owned hotel.

As my master Pruss Wang said, I am not good at academics and am not outstanding among the apprentices that Pruss Wang has taught me. However, ordinary people’s pursuit of taste is not that high at all. .

Anka's ability to work in the Berlin State-owned Hotel also proves that Anka's culinary skills are good. After all, the Berlin State-owned Hotel is one of only ten hotels in Harare. Being able to work in the kitchen of these state-owned hotels Yes, no matter how poor the skills are, they are still much better than ordinary people.

Years of work experience have also given Anka a clear understanding of the catering industry in East Africa with poor service attitudes. Anka believes that this is a breakthrough point. If he can focus on service and price, he will It will definitely gain a foothold in the market. As for the poor taste of food, many people do not have the ability to identify it.

Prussia King: "Okay! Now that you have decided, I won't persuade you. If I were ten years younger, maybe I would be as aggressive as you young people."


Anka said to the master: "Thank you for your understanding."

Then Prussia Wang asked: "Now that you have decided to open a store by yourself, do you have enough money? Many supplies are still relatively scarce in the market now. Even if The simplest table, chair and bench I'm afraid I need special channels to purchase."

Anka replied: "Of course I have concerns about this, but now that the economy is liberalizing, many carpenters have chosen to return to their old profession. An old man near my home. The carpenter plans to open a carpentry shop I can get the goods from the craftsman's shop. As for the funds, I have some savings over the years, which should be able to support the preliminary preparations."

Prussia Wang nodded and said: "Very good, if so. If you are really short of money, you can tell me, your teacher My father has accumulated a lot of savings over the years. Even if you encounter some troubles, I can help you solve it.”

As the chef of the Berlin Hotel, Prussia Wang’s salary is relatively high, and in the workplace. Harare also knows many dignitaries.

Anka was still a little touched by the master's concern. He said: "Master, don't worry, I know what to do. If I really encounter trouble that cannot be solved, I will probably have no choice but to beg you shamelessly!"

Prussia King said to Anka: "What are you talking about? There is an old saying in my hometown, once a teacher, always a father. You are my apprentice, so it is natural for me to take care of you, but I also hope After you go out to start a business, don’t forget your true intentions. It would be better if you can continue to promote our Huai cuisine in Harare.”
