Chapter 227 Post-war Development (5)
"Lao Luo, unload!" Chen Xuan opened the hatch of the tractor cab and jumped off the tractor.
"You made two trips a day, which cost dozens of dollars! It's so easy to make money..." A clerk came up with a ledger. He was Lao Luo in Chen Xuan's mouth.
Chen Xuan did not refute, but just smiled and said: "Isn't this the current market situation? It's just rubber. I've only been pulling rubber during this period. After excluding gas money and machine maintenance, there is not much money left."
Lao Luo didn't go into details. He was a contented person. He could earn more than 100 yuan a year from doing this job, which was enough.

"Twenty tons again. You really bought the right machine. You can get twenty-two yuan for one trip." After the count was correct, Lao Luo made a note in the book, gave him a note, and went with the note.
The cashier takes the money.
This is a job within the Construction Corps, but in order to support individuals, the Construction Corps has gradually reduced various businesses and opened them to individuals, while providing certain support.
"I heard that the price of rubber has increased again?" After taking the note, Chen Xuan did not leave. There are nearly a thousand hectares of rubber forests in their village, and the price of rubber is directly related to the villagers' income.
His side job is transportation, and his main job is village chief.
He bought the tractor because he wanted to be useful in the village. Even if he didn't develop the transportation business, he would still be able to get it in five years. He had no ambitions. He was able to go from an orphan begging for a living to where he is today. He just wanted to do something for Nanhua.
"Yes, exporting 500 yuan per ton of raw rubber now, the supply is still in short supply..." Lao Luo nodded, "Your village is the largest rubber planting village nearby, and you deserve to be rich."
Semarang was the first area to start building military corps and planting rubber. It took seven or eight years for it to produce anything. What's wrong with the higher income?
"So high!" Chen Xuan smacked her lips, "Then our village has one thousand hectares of land, one and a half tons per hectare, fifteen hundred tons, seven hundred and fifty thousand?" After a little calculation, Chen Xuan felt a little dizzy.
"What good thing are you thinking about? Just cut it from the tree? You can calculate it. After tapping the rubber, it has to be roughly processed, then transported out, collected and distributed by me, transported to the dock, and then transported to Surabaya, Coconut City, or exported
, and then you have to unload the goods and wait for others to count them, which is not money?" Lao Luo said angrily.
"Yes, yes, I was mistaken...but our village should have half of them, right?" Chen Xuan asked.

"Go!" Lao Luo looked around: "I'm telling you, don't say anything. The Division Audit Bureau wants to give 70%, and the Corps will even out the labor costs..."
Before Lao Luo finished speaking, Chen Xuan frowned: "Then the Corps does not work in vain? The Corps also grows rubber, and the Corps reclaims the land, roads, and houses. After working for a long time, we still eat and drink for free?"
Chen Xuan felt a little uncomfortable. In the past, there was no way. The state would support him, and everyone would provide him with food, clothing, housing, and transportation. After everything was settled, he would distribute it to everyone. After a long time, he could support himself, but he was still taking advantage of the state.
"That's not the case. If you can make money, just spend it normally, or save it in the bank, or expand production. It's not too late for the division to be happy." Lao Luo stopped him hastily. He regretted it a little. This man is a
firecracker.
"You don't understand economic matters. In short, if you can make money, the country can make money. It's a win-win situation. Moreover, what you get is not 350 per ton, but 70% of the average price. If you are really serious, why not make one?"
Factory..." After persuading Chen Xuan, Lao Luo breathed a sigh of relief.
"The farm tools, small hardware tools, flower cloths and other miscellaneous things ordered in your town are all in the warehouse. You can take them back with the car. The freight..."
"I still need to ask you for shipping costs for the things in our village. Why don't you pay me for them?" Chen Xuan asked about the warehouse.
"That won't work. We have a system that stipulates the freight. The accounts must not be bad. If you don't want the money, then go and see what is missing. It will cost you six yuan." Lao Luo insisted.
"What is this?" Lao Luo opened the warehouse and Chen Xuan saw a large row of bicycles and a row of motorcycles. He knew the bicycles and he could vaguely understand the motorcycles.
"Motorcycles burn gasoline and can haul hundreds of kilograms of cargo no problem. The advantage is that they are fast and flexible. The division headquarters wants to give them to cadres as official vehicles, but they haven't learned how to do it yet." Lao Luo shook his head.

The stuff is good, but it’s expensive. When it’s time to catch up with tractors, the cadres don’t have time to learn, so they can only put it in the warehouse... Huh?
"Boy, when this thing is driven, it's like lightning. You haven't found anyone yet, right? When this thing is driven, he is the most handsome boy in the whole village. I heard that it is given priority to supply to the troops, so the political commissar has a lot of face, so he can't do it.
I bought ten motorcycles, what? Are you interested?
You can't have a partner and still drive your tractor, it's noisy, this thing is good, it's convenient and fast to go back to your parents' house, and most importantly, it's cheap now, I'll sell it to you for 400." Lao Luo promoted.
To be honest, Chen Xuan was a little excited, especially thinking about riding a motorcycle with Huang Suqing in the back seat...
………
Chug tug tug…
"Brother Liu! Please call a few people to unload the goods! Our farm tools and other things have arrived..." Chen Xuan stretched out her head and shouted to the guard, Brother Liu.
"Ah? Farm tools? OK! I'll open the door for you!" Brother Liu also shouted.
Why shout? Because the tractor is a bit loud, so you can’t hear it without shouting.
"Huo! This car is quite unique, isn't it? Why does it only have two wheels?" Brother Liu stared at the motorcycle in confusion.

"Hey! You don't know this, right? This is a bicycle. You can move by pressing the pedals. Where are the pedals?" The person who helped unload the goods was also 18 or 19 years old. He should have seen a little bit of the world.
"This is a motorcycle, just like a truck, it burns gasoline, Manager Huang! Are you off work? Take my car, I'll be going back just in time." Chen Xuan was just about to show off to them, but when she saw Manager Huang, her words changed.
"Thank you." Huang Suqing replied generously.
The homeless life has long since made her mature quickly, and the relaxed environment and work life in Nanhua have also made her more and more cheerful.
Chug tug tug…
The tractor gradually moved away.
"I have a feeling that a flower in our warehouse was just picked away..." the man calling the bicycle murmured.
Brother Liu happened to hear it, "You just found out today? I knew about this the day Chen Xuan sent Manager Huang here. Don't worry about it! It's a good marriage. If you can't figure it out, I'll help you figure it out.
."
"How can this happen? I'm still early. After I save some money, I'll go to big cities to see it. Brother Liu, let me tell you, I think back then we were in Tianjin Wei..."
Seeing that this man started bragging about cross talk again, Brother Liu quickly found a beer can and said, "It's time to get off work, let's go to the tavern to chat." In fact, he just wanted to listen to the cross talk, and the tavern owner even fell in love with this rat. With him,
Now, business is at least 20% better.

"Rubber has risen so high, who is behind it?" Liu Yiming looked at the rubber price curve within three months and saw a beautiful diagonal line.
"If I have to say it, it's us." Xu Hui took a sip of tea and looked at Liu Yiming with dull eyes. He held meetings for three days in a row, and his mind was filled with the assimilation plan.
"We?" Liu Yiming was surprised, "Do we all have the spending power?"
"Due to the impact of the war, the overall consumption level declined in the first half of the year. Overall, tens of thousands of tons of rubber were still consumed. In the second half of the year, production resumed and armaments were replenished. This year, Nanhua's overall rubber consumption was around 100,000 tons." Xu Hui said.
As one of the basic industrial raw materials, rubber has a particularly wide range of applications. It was the discovery and development of rubber that enabled the second industrial revolution to be completed.
"For example, tires, hundreds of thousands of tires of various types were produced this year for shipbuilding, military industry, electric power, machinery, and a huge number of rubber shoes. This year, the domestic output was 170,000 tons. Except for the home country, everything else was exported." Xu Hui felt a little painful.
.
Because the entire Nan Hua oil palm harvest area has exceeded one million hectares, while the rubber only has a little over 100,000 hectares. The two started almost at the same time, but because they were not optimistic about rubber at the beginning, the focus was more on palm trees with a bright future.
"Where's next year's production?" Liu Yiming asked with concern.
"Within three years, the rubber harvest area can reach 500,000 hectares, and another 200,000 hectares of land are being reclaimed and replanted. However, with the increase in demand and the implementation of mechanization, the output is barely enough for the country." Xu Hui thought of the small money left.
Money is even more painful.

"Continue to expand the planting area. Two hundred thousand yuan is not enough. Rubber will only become more and more expensive." Liu Yiming did not care why the rubber planting area was only half of that of palm trees.
For a country, Xu Hui did the right thing. One cannot gamble on national affairs unless the situation is desperate.
If you gamble on this thing, your family will be ruined if you lose. If you win, you will want to gamble when something happens, and your family will be ruined in the end.

"The Ma family members are ready for the expedition to Oman. The first batch of two thousand people all agree with the Bactrian culture and support Nanhua. They can set off after the first batch of oil transportation equipment is loaded on the ship."
The pirates at this time are real pirates. For safety reasons, Nanhua supply ships are escorted by warships to Oman.
"How much territory do we occupy?" Xu Hui shook his head and drove away the resentment in his heart.
Liu Yiming took out a pen and circled the map: "We occupy 1/4 along the Persian Gulf coast. Including Oman, it is theoretically about 800,000 square kilometers, but in actual control we only control a few towns."
"Is there all oil under this land?" Xu Hui still couldn't believe it.
"Qatar's exploration report shows that a spouting well was dug at a depth of 60 meters, with a flow rate greater than that of Oman. It has been sealed due to confidentiality issues." Liu Yiming took out the new exploration report.

"When can we develop it? It doesn't feel good to look at the treasure mountain but not get it."
"Wait, it won't be until seven or eight years at the earliest. Before then, we can only secretly exploit Oman's oil." If Nanhua wants to eat this piece of fat, it must at least reach a strategic agreement with Britain and have more than six battleships.
Two ships are used to defend the mainland, two ships are maintained and rotated, and two ships are stationed in the Arabian Peninsula.
Coupled with several battlecruisers, they are used to deter the break-up of diplomatic relations, and then demonstrate the strength that can engulf India to achieve a strategic balance.
To achieve this goal, it would take seven or eight years simply to manufacture warships.
