Chapter 294 Shoes
Washing away filth is not only a metaphor, but also a real-life scene.
The New Alliance liberated Banda City at the beginning of this year, and it has been nearly half a year now. It also took almost half a year for the New Alliance to build the Kelin District.
Kelin District is only a district of Fiso Port, with a population of hundreds of thousands, while Banda City is much larger, with a total population of 1.2 million. However, the speed of renovating Banda City is not as fast as the original construction Clint area is slow.
Because building the Kelin District is starting from scratch, everyone has little experience, but now more than 8,000 trained cadres have been transferred from Feso Port, and everyone has personally experienced and participated in the entire process of transforming Feso Port. I have become much more skilled at work.
Needless to say more about rebuilding order, including economic, administrative, and military systems. There are also several key tasks in terms of people's livelihood, such as farmland water conservancy construction, spring plowing and production, and urban environmental transformation.
People's lifestyle and living environment can directly affect their mental outlook. This is a very intuitive change that everyone can see. When we first created the Kelin District, Kelin meant clean, and everyone could understand it. In the past few months, a "Love Home Sanitation Campaign" has also been launched in Banda City.
Replan and renovate the city's roads, build sewerage and sewage systems, harden the roads as much as possible under existing conditions, demolish some buildings in messy low-lying areas, and relocate residents so that sewage will no longer flow across the river when the rainy season comes...
After suppressing the gangs entrenched in various neighborhoods and banning illegal businesses controlled by gangs such as pornography, gambling, drugs, and guns, the long-standing separation of neighborhoods was broken, and many measures could be implemented.
Another task is to build public toilets and garbage stations. This is no small matter, but a key project of the new alliance. It takes a lot of effort and the measures are quite strict. Open defecation and dumping of all kinds of garbage and filth are prohibited. Environmental sanitation departments and urban patrol teams have been established, and many employees have been trained and recruited.
These require huge investment, which is unprecedented for Banda City.
If we talk about funds, it can be said that they come from Gambistine, Huazhenxing, and New Alliance, through a series of trading relationships. If you "research" carefully, it seems that they all come from Old Man Yang, because today's Chunrong Pills are all refined by Old Man Yang himself. And Old Man Yang seemed to be minding his own business, he just set up a nine-turn purple gold furnace array to refine a batch of Chunrong Dan.
The new alliance invested not only money. It is useless to just spend money to transform this place. It mobilized huge manpower, material resources and production capacity...
Spending money to buy things is actually just an appearance. It represents labor reserves and production results. If the production capacity cannot keep up, where can I buy things?
With money in the hands of Huazhenxing, they can import various materials and hire Dongguo teams to build various projects. However, if all the daily necessities of Banda City residents need to be imported, the price and cost will be too high, which is equivalent to only input without output. The local area first needs to establish an internal economic cycle.
Mile coins are no longer used in the jurisdiction of the new alliance. They are either Dongguo coins or shopping coupons issued by supply and marketing cooperatives. Shopping vouchers can buy a variety of daily necessities and commonly used production tools, most of which are locally produced, mainly from various economic units affiliated to Huanxiang Industrial.
If Fiso Port had not already had a certain production capacity, the new alliance would not have been able to transform Banda City with such a big move, converting almost half of the city's adult population into labor, paying them, and mobilizing There is a large supply of materials, allowing them to buy what they need with labor remuneration.
Due to various reasons, the quality of the population is quite low, so the labor efficiency is also very low. There is nothing we can do about it for the time being. Even if we want to change it, it will take a long time.
Despite this, according to Mo Shangtong's calculations, after the simple and large-scale farmland water conservancy construction and the new farm reclamation plan at the beginning of the year, by the end of this year's rainy season, the agricultural and sideline food production in Banda City alone will be able to feed at least five million people. population.
The so-called feeding means ensuring that five million people can survive based on the current living standards. But people can't just wear rags and eat cassava every day. The purpose of the new alliance to transform the country is to let people live a better life.
But the current achievements are quite remarkable, laying a solid foundation for the new alliance to liberate Wage City and then the entire Kingdom of Kilili in the next step. This can at least ensure that famine will not occur during the period of comprehensive reorganization after the liberation of Kilili.
Banda City is an important town in the north of Kilili Country and the former headquarters of the Defense Front. Its basic conditions are much better than those of Fiso Port. If calculated based on the levels of previous years, its GDP is about five times that of Fiso Port. .
Its pillar industries are agriculture, animal husbandry, handicrafts, tourism and a small amount of light industry. Some heavy industries, such as mining, are basically controlled by foreign mining capital groups. The relatively modern electricity and communications industries are very weak and were originally controlled by the Defense Front.
There are three rivers and many tributaries in its territory. Although the climate is also divided into heavy rainy season and light rainy season, the agricultural and animal husbandry conditions are much better than those in Fiso Port.
Huazhenxing spent a lot of effort to create a Beiluo River Basin in Fesuo Port, and with relatively simple construction and transformation, a modern agricultural production base equivalent to ten Fesuo Port agricultural reclamation areas can be built here.
A large part of the new reclamation plan area was originally located in the national park and was a traditional camping area for tourist groups. The new alliance re-planned and transformed it into the current agricultural and animal husbandry reclamation area. This move also caused protests from several international environmental organizations.
Originally, Banda City did not engage in agricultural and animal husbandry development in the most suitable places because it was profitable. A huge national park has been designated, and donations from overseas charities can be obtained. As long as the local government sends people to maintain and protect the national park, it will receive money every year, so the Defense Front is also happy to do so.
The New Alliance issued a report specifically for this purpose, stating that the new reclamation plan will not affect the ecological environment and wildlife habitat. Moreover, with the output of agriculture and animal husbandry, local people can have a guarantee of survival, and hunting for survival can be fundamentally eliminated.
The local government also rezoned a larger and more reasonable area and incorporated it into a national park. This new area was originally a hunting area next to the national park. As long as overseas tourists purchased a hunting license, they could go hunting accompanied by local armed bodyguards. Now it is also included in the protection scope of the national park.
This report did not have an effect. Environmental protection assistance from overseas organizations has been stopped. Banda City has lost millions of dollars in foreign exchange income every year, and the indirect losses from the tourism industry may be even more. The new alliance also did not change its original intention and implemented the new farmland plan as usual.
What Shi Shuangcheng came to was a Banda city, a little messy but not chaotic, a little busy but full of vitality.
In the past, during the heavy rainy season every year, many people did not work and had no work to do. Local people sow seeds in the fields at the beginning of the rainy season, which are similar to wild seeds. The crops can be harvested after the rainy season ends. You can do it again during the light rainy season, and you can harvest again in the winter, but the yield will be lower. The main crops can be harvested roughly twice a year.
Most of the time during the rainy season, most people just drink, sing and dance. A few people may work in factories or workshops, go panning for gold in river shoals, exchange some money and come back to continue drinking, gambling, and smoking leaves. Thanks to the local climate conditions, it is not too cold even when it rains. As long as the family has a roof to sleep on, it will not freeze, and it can survive if it can find food.
But this year the situation is different. There are still many people working during the rainy season. Residents go out of their homes to participate in various organized activities. Activists can also participate in various community training classes organized by the New Alliance. If you want to become a reserve cadre, you must Pass the assessment, get the diploma from the cram school, and then enter the internship.
The renovated city was washed clean by the rain, and patrols to maintain order walked through the streets from time to time, wearing orange or blue armbands, and they all wore shoes.
They are not straw sandals, which are not suitable for wearing in rainy season, but sandals made from used tires. The outer tube is used as the sole and the inner tube is used as the shoe tripper. It can not only protect the soles of the feet from being punctured, but also mainly prevent various parasitic infections.
All cadres of the new alliance had to wear shoes. This was a disciplinary requirement, and a new trend soon formed. To the local people employed by New Alliance and Huanxiang Industrial, shoes are given to them for free as part of their work remuneration.
Such sandals are also sold in supply and marketing cooperatives, and they are not expensive. Of course, there are better shoes in supply and marketing cooperatives. During this period, there have been many shoe snatching incidents in Banda City. It is hard for outsiders to imagine that sandals made from waste tires can also be snatched.
However, many local people have this temper. When they see someone wearing new shoes but they don't have any on their own feet, they will directly force the other person to take them off for themselves, relying on the strength of the crowd or having a weapon in hand.
Although the new alliance suppressed gangs in various neighborhoods, many people still retained their original behavior habits. The municipal department also organized special rectification activities for this purpose. This surprised the local indigenous residents that law enforcement would actually take care of this kind of thing. There were even community street workers going door to door to investigate...
Charles originally had ten speeches, but recently he added one. The title of this eleventh speech is "Protect Everyone's Shoes". This speech was not written by Shen Si, but was created by Charles on his own, specifically for situations encountered in reality.
According to Charles, if the new alliance cannot even protect the shoes worn by the people, how can it protect the safety of people's lives and property and protect people's rights to survival and development?
When Shi Shuangcheng visited Banda City, he saw many mass gatherings. A simple stage and awning were set up in the open space, where they performed plays and played Charles's speeches. Many times they even held mass criticism meetings, but the locals actually Love watching in the rain.
When Shi Shuangcheng saw this kind of gathering for the first time, he was very curious and surprised. He stopped and watched in the crowd for a long time. Five people were publicly charged, bearing the name of gang remnants.
These five people were originally members of the Meat Market Gang, not the core members, so they were neither suppressed nor sent to the water conservancy construction site to undergo labor reform. They were criticized and educated before being released.
As a result, the five people formed a small group and specialized in grabbing sandals in secluded places. They were not wearing them for themselves, but after grabbing a lot, they took them to the neighborhood to sell them.
Someone who was robbed reported it to the joint law enforcement agency, and the group was punished. But they secretly found the whistleblower they suspected. In fact, they found the wrong whistleblower, but they stabbed him with a knife and eventually died.
This kind of thing was very common in the original Banda City. There were too many conflicts and revenge incidents between gang members, and the reasons were often due to trivial matters. But in today's Banda City, even if it is a big case, it will be at the forefront of the storm. Being supervised by the New Alliance.
Many people came to the criticism meeting, and community workers also organized a group of neighbors to take the stage to expose how these people used gang power to commit crimes and how they still refused to repent after being transformed by the New Alliance.
In short, what was criticized at the scene was not only their criminal behavior today, but also the evil of the old era. Community cadres also preached on the spot, telling people that they must resolutely crack down on the evil remnants of the old era.
These five people were actually sentenced before they were criticized at the assembly. After the assembly, they were taken away for execution. Then a group of people came up and admitted their mistakes one by one, apologized to the public present, and said that they must maintain the new order and be new citizens with good behavior in the future.
In fact, these dozens of people did not commit any serious crimes. They were all caught by patrols for urinating in the street. This kind of thing was not taken care of in the past, but now it is prohibited.
When Shi Shuangcheng was watching in the audience, he asked casually: "Those people have committed crimes and have been caught by law enforcement agencies. They can be punished directly. They should be fined if they should be fined. They should be jailed if they should be jailed. Why should they be shot?" How about taking it to the stage for mass gatherings to criticize?”
Manman explained: "It's just to educate the masses! When everyone knows how they were punished and why they were punished, this is to expand the influence of the propaganda. This is not only legal propaganda, but also policy propaganda, telling everyone It’s different now, why is it different…”
Hua Zhenxing smiled bitterly and said: "Among the senior executives of Huanxiang Industrial, Lawyer Dong, the head of the legal department, once asked similar questions to you. He thought that doing so was insulting. But Ke Fuzi said that there must first be social consensus, To form a sound personality...Later, Lawyer Dong also changed his view."
When the five criminals were taken away and a dozen more people came on the stage to apologize to the public, Shi Shuangcheng couldn't help but ask: "Why don't you even let girls go? This is too shameful..."
Several women were dragged onto the stage and criticized by the masses for urinating in the street. At the age of 17 or 18, in Shi Shuangcheng's eyes, they were just girls! It is indeed shameful to apologize to so many people and be criticized by everyone because of this kind of thing. It is simply a humiliation.
Hua Zhenxing sighed and said, "Then we must first let them know what shame is..."
He explained it carefully. Many local people actually don't have any sense of shame, and most of the time they don't care about other people's feelings, but they have inexplicably strong self-esteem. If something goes wrong, they will claim that the other person has offended them, and they are quite thick-skinned when they make mistakes, so they can refuse to admit it. Instead of admitting it, they will turn against those who accuse them.
Therefore, it is actually quite difficult to deal with such people and such things. Based on the experience in Fiso Port, the New Alliance had to use this trick, which is to mobilize the masses to criticize and let them admit their mistakes in public and apologize to society. If you gather enough people to come on stage regularly, the results will be very significant. Nowadays, this kind of behavior is becoming less and less common.
Guang Ren obviously saw more things, and he sighed and said: "It seems to be a very simple method, but in fact there must be a very powerful and very unified executive department behind it; what seems to be a very simple thing is The key to changing customs is the beginning of education.”
