On the bank of the Paraguay River, which was winding and distant, Jingting Town rose from the ground. The surroundings were covered with green trees and wild flowers, and buildings of various styles were hidden in it, so beautiful that it seemed to be in a painting.

It is 26 degrees south latitude, and the city is beautiful and clean. If you clean it up properly, you can definitely be operated as a tourist city. In fact, the hotels here are good and the restaurants are delicious, especially the private handmade chocolates sold in consignment. The taste is no less than those in the big cities in the south, but the price is much cheaper.

"This place is like a Jiangnan water town that was placed at the wrong latitude." On November 2, 1699, after lunch, Li Peng walked out of the hotel and sat in a pavilion next to him. Of course, the reporters who came with him were still the same.

The hotel is built in the wetlands on the west bank of the Paraguay River, and the environment is very good. Especially since the embankment along the river has been built for a long time, the river channel has been bent and straightened (the Paraguay River turns a large bay here). After the flooding has been greatly reduced, the safety of these riverside wetlands has been greatly improved.

However, some people accused the existence of this hotel of reducing the wetland area and reducing the flood control and storage function. But considering that the owner of this hotel is the famous Xu Hao, everything seems normal. Xu Dahao - last year, Xu Hao donated more than 30,000 yuan to the government welfare home last year, which is really kind and generous - who is a giant in the domestic catering and entertainment industry, second only to the state-owned Oriental Hotel Group in this industry, and is a guest of honor for many local government officials. He is willing to come to Jingting County to start a business, and local officials want to worship him as a Bodhisattva, so naturally they won’t say anything.

What's more, these places will also be developed in the future. Swamp wetlands (or floodplain) are also a scarce resource, especially for inland counties like Jingting County. The reason is that there is sufficient river bank line here to build a dock for you and improve the efficiency of transportation. This is very attractive to the people in every place. Therefore, the accumulated water in floodplain must be drained and the pond must be filled, otherwise how to develop the economy.

"I just don't know how long these scenery can last." Huang reporter from "Minsheng" magazine said: "Although there are beautiful mountains and rivers everywhere on our east bank, it cannot withstand the tossing and turbulence of construction sites across the country. It is better to keep a little natural beauty or a little bit."

"What's the solution? People need to eat and the economy needs to develop." Although Li Peng is a literary youth, he is not so pretentious when he was born in a young family of officials. He only heard him continue: "To be honest, Jingting County's agriculture is quite good, and grain output has increased steadily over the years. I heard that the national grain reserve warehouse purchases grain across the country this time, and the purchase price is also the highest in ten years. When the county sees an opportunity, it naturally needs to seize it. But Jingting County has a problem, that is, the traffic bottleneck must be broken, otherwise nothing can be discussed. And the river port terminal is naturally the key to breaking the deadlock."

"The national grain reserve warehouse wants to collect grain on a large scale? When is the news? Why?" Zhao reporter from Nantie Weekly asked. He usually mainly follows the cultural and sports line. Which polo team in Qingdao Port is the strongest, and who is most likely to win the best polo player trophy awarded by the tournament. These things are clear, but the news about politics and economy is not very well-versed.

"Actually, it's nothing. The National Grain Storage Company wants to store a batch of grain near Europe and sell it to our friendly countries to make some money." Li Peng scratched his head and said with a smile: "Although the National Grain Storage has undertaken many political tasks all year round, it looks like a bureaucratic organization. But after all, they are actually still a commercial company. The continental war will inevitably start, and once a war breaks out, it is impossible to end in the short term, which gives unlimited room for grain prices. This operation of the National Grain Storage can not only obtain commercial profits, but also increase the political influence of our country. It is actually very normal."

"By the way, the Ministry of Agriculture also said at a meeting a few days ago that it is necessary to cultivate two to three world-class grain enterprises, enter the international market, and obtain benefits for the East Coast. The country's largest agricultural enterprise in the country is the largest, integrating farm operation, warehousing and logistics, grain trade, and deep food processing. It has strong capital strength, so it is naturally necessary to take the lead." Li Peng added: "Food is also an effective weapon, and sometimes it can kill people. When Amsterdam first developed, it was actually far inferior to Bruges in the South Netherlands, nor as good as Antweiler.

But people controlled the trade of food and fish, and slowly influenced many countries through these two weapons, making them surrender and give in to commercial interests. The capital of the Dutch developed like a snowball. We all know that after food and fish, Amsterdam controlled more than half of the trade in cheese, salt, ship rig, wood, whale products, spices, and alcohol in Europe, and successfully created a commercial empire. Compared with the later commodities, food is more deadly because it is a necessity for life and people should not eat without food for a day."

The idea of ​​establishing a world-class grain enterprise is actually a long time since the East Coast people have been planning to make it. But this matter must be a conflict of interest with the United Provinces. The East Coast people did not want to be so intense at the beginning. A considerable number of food they sold in Europe were done through agents, either taking the lead in organizing it themselves, but not leaving the scene. For example, the operation of Crimean grain importing into the Italian market is a typical example, only earning political interests and not interfering in commercial interests.

But as the situation develops, it is obvious that people in the East Coast do not have to be so troublesome. In the judgment of the Executive Committee, after the Spanish throne inherited the war, the East Coast Republic will officially come to the forefront and establish a new world order dominated by its own side. At this time, it is time to warm up some things, such as the debut of the Army in Morocco, such as bringing some large shipping companies, grain companies, mining companies, banks, etc. into the international market to gain benefits. This is not only to increase income to the government, but also to let the people share some benefits - the empire that the sun is not set, so the people on the East Coast must also share some of the benefits?

Of course, these companies enter the international market and grab other people's food, so naturally they have to come forward to protect them. If the time had not been very ripe in the past, but now it is different. After obtaining land from the Moroccans, the East Coast people will have an objective military force in Europe. If some servants are included, this force can already affect the decisions and even the direction of evidence in many countries. It can be said that the time is ripe.

Speaking of Morocco, Li Peng actually learned a lot through his connections with his family. I heard that the Executive Committee will not give up until he achieves his goal. He must cut off the land north of 34 degrees and 30 minutes north latitude, and then establish two counties, namely Dange and Ceuta, with the central mountains as the boundary. After defeating the Kingdom of Spain in the future, the people of the East Coast will also seize another county in Gibraltar on the other side of the strait, and establish a Strait Colony Management Committee to comprehensively manage these three counties with extremely important geographical locations.

The three counties can live almost 200,000 people. What a huge force this is? You must know that the population of many small European countries may not be 200,000 at this time. If the economic development of these three counties is smooth, they can support at least one mixed regiment's troops, which is enough to carry out many actions. No wonder the Executive Committee is so concerned. It was originally an operation that the Army planned to train troops for the Sixth Mixed Regency. Unexpectedly, after such operations, they found that they could actually build hundreds of years of foundation for future generations, which was considered an unexpected surprise.

This time, the national grain reserve warehouse plans to establish a branch in Morocco. The scale of this branch will not be small. It seems that it will have its own exclusive docks, barns, factories, roads and corresponding sales agencies. If it develops in the future, it is likely to recruit a large number of security personnel to deeply interfere in the situation in some regions and become a giant controlling the European grain trading market. To put it bluntly, this company wants to control many European farmers or grain merchants to work for them, make profits, and cooperate with the country's diplomatic work to contribute to the East Coast government's political benefits.

According to the concept of the Executive Committee and the Ministry of Agriculture, the Straits Branch of the National Grain Reserve Co., Ltd. will purchase more than 30,000 tons of grain locally and use it as the first batch of start-up grain for the Straits Branch to carry out commercial activities. Regarding the procurement of this batch of grain, the bigwigs of the Ministry of Agriculture have already made a statement, giving priority to the care of agricultural counties in the inland areas, that is, focus on purchasing grain on the Brazilian Plateau (mainly the central and northern regions), the Chaco Plain and the Pampa Plain (non-coastal areas), and then transport it to various large barns located in the coastal areas through various channels. Once the negotiations in Morocco are over and the land is obtained, large barns will be built in Tangier and Ceuta. Then, ships can be rented to transport there. I hope that by then, the civilian ships have not been requisitioned by the navy and there is enough capacity to transport grain.

The Hexi counties on the Chako Plain have made agriculture exciting and the most important pillar of the local economy when Wang Dazhuang was a commissioner. In the future, once the orders for national grain storage come in like snowflakes, it will undoubtedly be a great blessing for the local people. Li Peng has also been interviewed in the Chako area for a long time and has traveled all over the mountains and rivers here. He has a good impression of the local people, so he is also sincerely happy for the local people.

Although the government has tried all its best to agriculture on the East Coast, it seems that it is difficult not to rely on overseas markets. National grain storage development is a good thing for farmers across the country! As for the possible conflict with others, it is normal! How much money has the Jewish grain wholesalers in Amsterdam earned from the East Coast people through market channels in recent years? It can be said that from harvest to eventually being sent to various stores of all sizes in Europe, most of the profits were taken away by Jewish grain traders. It is impossible for you to say that the East Coast people don’t mind at all.
