"The Eighth Red Army currently has more than 120 million yuan in gold, silver and foreign exchange..." Although Hu Weidong had rehearsed it many times in his mind, he was still somewhat nervous when he actually spoke.

Taizu was so shocked that he stood up and asked with some suspicion, "How can you have so much money? Comrade Xiao Hu, you have not violated mass discipline?"

"Absolutely not. These harvests all come from the bureaucratic capital under the Chiang and Yan regimes, as well as the Jiangsu and Zhejiang chaebols, Shanxi merchants and other large landowners and capitalists who coexist with them. In addition, they also gained a lot from the Japanese and traitors.

.....As for those national capitalists, small and medium-sized businessmen, small landowners and rich peasants who are engaged in industry, as long as they have not committed serious crimes, we have not touched any of them." Hu Weidong answered truthfully, and explained by the way, "In fact, this money is not

It’s too much, after all, Hangzhou and Taiyuan are both the top ten big cities in China..."

"How could the people not rebel in such a dark China (with a huge gap between regions and individual wealth and poverty)?" Taizu suddenly stood up and shouted excitedly, causing a false alarm to the guards outside the house. After a while, Taizu's mood

After he calmed down, he motioned to Hu Weidong to continue talking, especially asking him to explain why he wanted to go abroad to purchase now, instead of using it to speed up the victory of the revolution. He would wait until he took control of the national power before purchasing from foreign countries. At that time, the territory was large and the financial resources were abundant.

Can I buy more stuff?

"It turns out that the reason why the Soviet Union was able to develop so fast was because it got a bargain?" Taizu suddenly realized after listening to Hu Weidong's explanation of the Great Depression in the West from 1929 to 1933. There was not much awe left in his heart for the Soviet Union.

Almost nothing remains, and as Hu Weidong said, "Although the opportunity is not as good as it was a few years ago, there are still advantages to be taken. Once the Western economy recovers, not only will the price be several times higher, but even if there is

Money may not be able to buy those important equipment and technologies with strategic value, and poaching people is even more difficult than going to the sky." This made his heart beat even more. But Taizu cannot make the decision alone on such a big thing.

He decided to invite Vice Chairman Zhou first, and then convince the Commander-in-Chief after reaching an agreement. As long as the three of them unanimously agreed, no one else could object.

Vice Chairman Zhou is also a great man of his generation, and he knows more about foreign countries than Taizu. Although he feels that Hu Weidong's plan is very risky, he also feels that this may indeed be a great opportunity for China's rise. It would be a pity to miss it. In addition,

He was now convinced of Taizu's vision, and after pondering for almost a quarter of an hour, he finally cast this crucial vote in favor.

At this time, Hu Weidong went even further and said, "120 million yuan seems a lot in China, but when converted into US dollars, it is only about 40 million yuan. Even at a cabbage price, it is impossible to buy back a complete industrial system."

Although the potential profit margins of new products such as penicillin are huge, due to the poor conditions in the base area, the current production is not enough for my own use. If possible, I will try to use the forward franchise rights as collateral to borrow money from large foreign consortiums and large companies.

We need to get more cash as soon as possible to purchase more machinery and equipment and introduce more technical talents. And before going abroad, we don’t know what we can buy, what talents we can introduce, and how to bring them back to the country for transportation.

to the base area, so I hope to be given full authority to respond accordingly."

Taizu has always been a trustworthy person, and he was about to agree when he heard this. Vice Chairman Zhou, who was always thoughtful, asked a question that could not be skipped, "One hundred and twenty million yuan is not enough to complete the task as you said."

China's industrialization is already a very large amount in China. It is said that Yan Xishan's total investment in Shanxi's industrial railway is only tens of millions. However, the total number of industrial workers in the mainland is only a few million.

, among which the heavy industry is worth less than one million yuan. Even if it is just the machinery and equipment purchased for 120 million yuan, I am afraid there are not enough workers to operate it. What is the use of raising more cash in a short period of time?”….

"This problem is not difficult to solve. On the one hand, we will not buy those outdated and old machines. Labor productivity is naturally higher, and relatively fewer workers are needed. On the other hand, there are so many unemployed workers in Western countries now. As long as wages are paid

Higher, it shouldn’t be too difficult to hire some excellent technical workers to come back as masters. In addition, we in the west of Henan Province have invented a method that can train an illiterate person who is not stupid into a skilled operator within one to two years.

If you have a high school education or above, or are smart and eager to learn, it only takes more than half a year. This has been proven to be effective in the past few months." Hu Weidong smiled after hearing this, and the method he mentioned is correct.

It was historically the key to laying a foundation for New China in just a few years after the Soviet Union aided it...

At that time, Soviet experts came to China to teach. Most of those factories were brand new, often with only hardware equipment, and the level of operators was appalling. Let alone senior engineers, there were often not even any ordinary technicians. In fact, the number of trained skilled workers in China was

They did not have any skills, and they were all at the level of middle school students who had just graduated. Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible for a factory like this to be put into production without Soviet experts being trained for several years to more than ten years. What should we do back then? The national factory construction task was more pressing than anything else.

The number and time of Soviet experts are very limited. The Chinese solution is-subcontracting! Completely break down the teaching content, send more than a dozen groups to study in one person's course, and each group only listens to a few of them during class.

For small parts, the same is true during the internship. In the end, basically in less than a year, each group has mastered the skills within the scope of the task, and then combines them and after a short period of running-in, the entire factory has the capabilities to put into production.

Necessary software requirements.

Relying on this trick, which is similar to the ant colony effect, New China has trained millions of high-level technicians in a few years. After the withdrawal of the Soviet Union, although the industry was analgesic, it quickly recovered and fully blossomed and replicated (of course, upgrading is much more difficult)

). China is industrializing using the human sea tactic. It is true that it takes more than ten years for a senior technician, but it only takes a few years or even a few months to build a group of technicians with all the capabilities of a senior technician. Of course, the cost of this is human cost.

skyrocketing, but the characteristic of New China is industrialization regardless of cost, money is the only thing that does not need to be considered!

Now the direct goal of industrial construction in the Soviet area is to support the future Anti-Japanese War. It is of a wartime economic nature and is also industrialization regardless of cost. Therefore, this trick was immediately used by Hu Weidong and achieved amazing results. You know

We are only in 1936, and there is a big gap between the global technological level and the 1950s. The requirements for workers are also relatively low, so the training speed is naturally faster!

I recommend two friends’ new books. If you are interested, you can read them ^_^
