Qi Shuhuan, the big spy, followed Hu Zhenhua for a whole day. At night, he seemed to understand something and said,

"Every change of dynasties in history has been due to land. Whoever solves the land problem will become the ruler of this land! Zhenhua, you solved this problem in just one day, a world record!"

Hu Zhenhua's compliment to him was just haha. The land problem is not so easy to solve. It is easy to collect but difficult to distribute!

You need to make a detailed statistics of the arable land area, field grade, and population of each village and hamlet, and formulate a fair and just distribution plan, which also requires taking into account vulnerable groups such as the elderly, the young, the lonely and the widowed.

What is worrying is not the lack of wealth but the uneven distribution of wealth. If there is a problem in the distribution process, it will not only fail to win the hearts of the people, but will also cause great chaos.

Those landlords who lost their land were all very tough. They were afraid of the powerful and did not dare to confront openly, but they would definitely resort to underhanded tactics to trip up the enemy.

What's more, Hu Zhenhua couldn't stay here forever. Once he left, those landlords and rich people would definitely connect with each other. There have been many returning home groups in history.

The reason why Hu Zhenhua wanted to set up a militia was to enable the people to protect themselves.

However, Lao Hu does not intend to get too involved in these matters. He only sets the general direction.

"Brother Qi, the land issue is just a superficial phenomenon. In the United States, only 30% of the population works in agriculture, and most of the land is concentrated in the hands of farmers. Why haven't they caused social problems?"

Qi Shuhuan thought for a moment and replied,

"Because the U.S. industry is well developed and can provide a large number of jobs!"

"That's right. So, what determines social change isn't land, but whether the people can survive. The vast majority of Chinese people are concentrated in rural areas, so distributing land to them will gain the support of the vast majority!"

Since the majority of the U.S. population is not engaged in agriculture, they often collect non-agricultural employment data. The purpose is to enable the vast majority of people to support themselves through work and avoid social problems.

Carter on the side said thoughtfully,

"Hu, so you're trying so hard to lend money to farmers in Jiangbei to curry favor with the mainstream?"

This idea has a bit of a conspiracy theory feel to it.

Hu Zhenhua never thought about it this way. He gave loans to farmers simply because he was also from the countryside in his previous life, working and wandering around, and could only be a stranger in his hometown forever.

Rural areas have vast land, abundant labor force, and raw materials needed for industrial production. There is no reason why they cannot develop.

When he has the ability and the time, Hu Zhenhua will certainly try to make some changes.

Carter's words actually reminded Hu Zhenhua. He chuckled and decided to continue his role as a black-hearted capitalist. He said,

"Historical development tells us that urbanization is an inevitable trend. So, where does the population for urbanization come from? Naturally, it comes from rural areas. If ordinary people live well in their hometowns, will they be willing to leave? How can we even talk about urbanization?"

Carter was quite inspired by this idea.

Why urbanization is a historical necessity is because cities are the most efficient form of organization.

Many social institutions, such as cinemas, libraries, hospitals, universities, airports, etc., must have a large audience to maintain their operations.

Have you ever seen a town with a movie theater?

Without urbanization, the country will have huge waste in resource allocation.

For example, if factories are spread across vast rural areas, how many high-power transmission lines and substations will be needed?

Also, do water plants, hospitals, etc. need to be built in duplicate?

Carter took out his notebook and wrote on it: Supporting rural enterprises can delay urbanization.

That’s right, it can only be delayed rather than stopped. It is an objective law and cannot be stopped by human power.

When Hu Zhenhua saw Carter's expression, he knew that this guy had made an empiricist mistake.

Studying China based on Western urbanization theory is bound to fail, because China's population base is larger than that of the entire West combined.

The population of a county in later generations was larger than that of a city in the West.

There is absolutely no problem in developing urbanization with county towns as the main body.

What's more, Hu Zhenhua has long intended to guide Jiangbei to carry out industrial division of labor to improve economies of scale.

Carter screwed up the pen and smiled.

"The countryside is great, with green mountains, clear waters, and the fragrance of rice. It's a great place to relax."

The less competitive the place is, the more likely it is that people will become complacent.

Qi Shuhuan continued,

"Mr. Consul, you are right. Ordinary people are the easiest to satisfy."

He always wanted to talk to Carter to ease the relationship with the United States, but Carter just didn't want to pay attention to him.

This time was no different. Carter didn't react at all, but looked at Hu Zhenhua.

"Hu, will your forced seizure of land exacerbate the conflict?"

Lao Hu scoffed at this statement.

"Since ancient times, revolutions have always been bloodless. Either you shed your own blood or the blood of others! Redistributing benefits will definitely offend some people. Even if I don't do it, the Red faction will do it. In that case, why shouldn't I refuse this favor? As for those landlords, they are like grasshoppers after autumn. What kind of waves can they stir up?"

Hu Zhenhua looked at Qi Shuhuan and said seriously,

"Brother Qi, I've already set an example for you. If the authorities don't have the courage to cut off the arm of a hero, the collapse of the party-state is only a matter of time. If you don't kill those corrupt officials, they will undermine the foundation of the country!"

Lao Hu made another point.

"Those who save themselves will always be saved by others!"

Carter finally felt a little emotional.

"The common people's wishes are so simple. They just want to have food to eat and clothes to wear. Is it difficult to satisfy them?"

Of course it is not difficult. All you need to do is throw the corrupt officials under the tracks and crush them into meat paste, just like Hu Zhenhua did!

However, if we do this, the party will definitely be destroyed!

If we don’t do this, our country will be destroyed!

Between the destruction of the party and the destruction of the country, the authorities chose the destruction of the country!

Hu Zhenhua still felt that the matter was not serious enough, and said lightly,

"Brother Qi, I have something to tell you. The arsenal production lines that were dismantled from the industrial zone have been sold to the Red Army. You don't have much time left!"

Qi Shuhuan looked at Carter's expressionless face and felt a pang in his heart.

This means that Carter knew about the sale of the arsenal in advance.

Have the authorities really been abandoned?

Hu Zhenhua saw that Qi Shuhuan was in a trance and began to show his fangs.

"Brother Qi, you are merely the acting director of a department. You cannot determine the major policies of the Party and the country. I, Hu Zhenhua, am just a businessman, and I dare not comment on the rise and fall of the country. Although we are humble, we also know how to worry about the country and the people. Please inform the higher-ups that all corrupt officials extradited to the industrial zone will be judged by the people!"

Hu Zhenhua patted his shoulder.

"If the mountain doesn't come toward me, I will walk toward the mountain."

Although Lao Hu's words were subtle, Qi Shuhuan understood: Hu Zhenhua wanted to scare the authorities and force him to make changes!

Whether it is selling the arsenal or arresting corrupt officials, it can be interpreted as Carter showing goodwill to the red side!

It can also be interpreted as an abandonment of the authorities!

Qi Shuhuan stared into Hu Zhenhua's eyes and asked,

"If the higher-ups are determined to make changes, what will you do?"

Hu Zhenhua immediately said,

"Those who save themselves will always be saved by others! If I see the determination and actions of those above, I will do my utmost to lobby our allies for mutual assistance!"

Qi Shuhuan turned his gaze to Carter, trying to get some clues from his expression, but Carter seemed petrified, without any expression.

Qi Shuhuan turned his gaze to Hu Zhenhua again.

"Zhenhua, if the higher-ups are determined to make changes, how will you cope?"

Hu Zhenhua's mouth curled up slightly. Qi Shuhuan meant: After the authorities reform, they will surely win the support of their allies again. What will you do then?

Hu Zhenhua's series of actions, such as shooting down bombers, dividing land, selling arsenals, and punishing corrupt officials, will inevitably cause great resentment from those above.

No matter how weak the authorities are, they are still a country and cannot be compared with a small TA company.

Hu Zhenhua laughed.

"I am an American citizen. If the higher-ups dare to touch me, I respect them as a real man!"

That kind of contempt, naked.

Qi Shuhuan blushed and didn't know how to respond.

It is almost an open secret that the authorities fear foreigners like tigers.

Hu Zhenhua casually took out a brocade box and handed it to Qi Shuhuan.

"Brother Qi, there's a small gift inside. This is my advance congratulations on removing the "acting director" from your role."

Qi Shuhuan "investigated" the arsenal transaction and "investigated" that the United States was showing goodwill to the Reds.

Then he "lobbyed" Hu Zhenhua to mediate.

With these achievements, it is enough to remove the word "generation"!

Qi Shuhuan still felt that the amount was not enough and said,

"Can I take a few people with me?"

Hu Zhenhua shook his head.

"Brother Qi, the few people you want will make it feel painful!"

Qi Shuhuan was silent for a moment, said nothing more, and turned to leave.

In the brocade box was a Yuan Dynasty music score, the pipa piece "Ten Sides of Ambush".

It is quite valuable, but what is the meaning?

Qi Shuhuan clenched his fists, and Hu Zhenhua told him in this way: This is your last chance!

Or tell the authorities, this is the last chance!

Hu Zhenhua stood by the window and watched Qi Shuhuan leave. He was thinking in his mind, can the authorities make up their minds to fight corruption?

If they can, it will be really fun to watch. The soldiers on the front line can't win the battle, and people in the rear are accusing them of corruption. They are left with nowhere to go. What will they choose?

I don’t know if the small pit dug this time can be used to bury someone.
