Reborn in 1976, teach him how to be an official

"In the mountains and forests south of the town, there's plenty of wild grass and pasture grass. With the addition of feed, each family can raise a cow, two pigs, and a dozen chickens and ducks a year without much trouble."

"It can maximize the income of all members. We can't say they are rich, nor can we say they are well-off, but at least they can get by and have some extra money and food."

"Only when you have enough to eat, eat some meat, and have some money in your hands can your mind become active and your true creativity shine."

"Principal, the essence of reform and opening up lies in the courage and initiative of all people."

Tai Zhengyang suddenly understood and nodded repeatedly, with an expression of satisfaction and relief on his face.

As the head of Zhennan, how to break the impasse has been on his mind, but he can't find a suitable breakthrough point.

Liu Hongyi's words were simple, clear, and to the point, which instantly made Tai Zhengyang feel enlightened.

But this is just the beginning.

Liu Hongyi went on to say, "Of course, vigorously developing the breeding industry and the courtyard economy will face another major problem, and that is sales."

"It's impossible for the members to eat all these cattle, pigs, chickens and eggs themselves. They have to sell them to get money to exchange for other necessities and production materials."

"Since ancient times, low grain prices have hurt farmers."

"If the livestock industry develops but can't be sold, there will be big problems within two or three years. It will seriously dampen the enthusiasm of the members and actually harm their interests."

“So the second point is to establish smooth sales channels.”

“This requires careful planning.”

"My personal suggestion is to establish a sales network covering most of the province as quickly as possible, with the government taking the lead and member cooperatives providing support."

"What should we do with the surplus of food, beef, pork, chicken, and eggs? Besides consuming some of it in the province, most of it must be exported."

"Opening up export channels is the top priority."

"At the provincial level, we need to establish a dedicated agricultural product marketing company. The supply and marketing cooperatives can take the lead, but it should be relatively independent and directly responsible to the provincial leaders. Then the sales network can be expanded to cover all regions, counties, districts, towns and communes."

“We also need to build deep-processing enterprises.”

"Fresh meat is difficult to preserve, so we freeze it and can it. Or we sell live cattle and pigs all over the country."

"But then we'll run into a third problem!"

Liu Hongyi began to go deeper step by step.

Tai Zhengyang's expression unconsciously became serious again, and he said in a deep voice: "Traffic problem!"

"Yes, Principal."

Liu Hongyi immediately nodded in agreement.

"Zhennan's transportation is really backward. There are no railways, and the roads are poor. To revitalize production, it is definitely impossible without a transportation network that spans the entire province."

It’s not to say that there are no railways in Zhennan at all, but there are indeed very few.

As for the highway transportation network, it was still in its infancy and could not be compared with later generations.

"Poor transportation will severely restrict the sale of bulk agricultural products and become a bottleneck. However, building roads is not something that can be done overnight. It will take three to five years, or even ten to twenty years."

Building roads is so damn expensive.

There was no way Zhennan could come up with so much money.

In the foreseeable future, at least within ten years, the country will not be able to provide much money to support Zhennan’s transportation construction.

From a national perspective, prioritizing the development of selected regions with geographical advantages is a completely correct strategy, and there's nothing wrong with it. Balanced development, and everyone's prosperity, is a beautiful ideal, but the reality is stark.

For a province like Zhennan, which is responsible for border defense and faces an extremely severe border situation, it is inevitable that its development will be restricted.

Tai Zhengyang's brows were twisted into the shape of the Chinese character "川".

Isn’t this a dead end?

"Principal, open the sea!"

Liu Hongyi said softly.
