493 One million acres of land. Is it enough?

"Do you think we can go back now? Many people, from the battlefield, find it difficult to adapt to society. Ordinary soldiers are fine, what about us? I know why I chose to mess around in Xiangjiang? Because that way, if you can fight, even if you miss it, many of them will be damned..." Liao Dong sniffed a long piece of cigarette.

Then he stopped talking.

Until we returned to the hotel, neither of us had ever communicated.

Dar es Salaam has always been the capital of Tanzania, and, until later generations, the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs also recognized it as the capital of Tanzania.

However, in 1974, the Tanzanian government decided to move the capital to Duoduoma, and had moved a large part of the administrative agencies.

As for why the capital was moved, who knows what Nyrell thought?

The scenery is very good near the beach, but it is far from as developed as later generations. Most of the houses are low two or three-story buildings, and the streets are also dilapidated. When Xie Kai went back, he no longer had the fear of being stared at all times, and he also felt like he was appreciating foreign cities. Or he wanted to use this exotic style to dispel the depression caused by what Liao Dong said.

Qian Fatty and others stayed in the hotel and didn't dare to go out. During lunch, Xie Kai told the people that it was okay. Dar es Salaam was the former capital of Tanzania, the most famous port city in East Africa, and the economic and cultural center of Tanzania. Both sides of the streets are filled with Arab and Western-style ancient buildings, and the suburbs of the city have beautiful African scenery.

"You won't go?" Fat Qian was a little surprised.

"There's something else, you go, the rabbit will take you with you. When you come out, you will have to see it, right?" Xie Kai grinned, and then said to Tian Li, "You go out for a walk with them too. If they like something, buy it."

"My duty is to protect you." Tian Li said with a stern face.

Xie Kai gave her a blank look. Surveillance means surveillance, and he had to say protection, "Liao Dong is here. Don't worry, I won't run. If you really want to run, do you think you can do it before them? Besides, Teacher Li is a woman, so many things are not convenient, right?"

Tian Li was so angry about it.

Li Li didn't want to go out, so she was pulled away by Fatty Qian.

"He must have something to do. What else can we do if we drag him around? Tian Li is obviously a surveillance officer arranged by the base." Qian Fatty did not care about the confidentiality rules at all. Anyway, he thought that Li Li was also a base staff member, so he had to know some things.

"What exactly does Xie Kai do? Why are there people monitoring him when he comes out?" Li Li never expected that the base she had been in for several years had so many secrets.

Fatty Qian really doesn’t know why Xie Kai was monitored.

My thoughts have always been on Li Li.

Luo Feng grinned, "My brother didn't want to stay in China and wanted to run away, but the base didn't dare. He was just afraid that he wouldn't go out... Teacher Li, maybe you also know that he was rejected by the military's special recruitment, otherwise, the base would interfere with the school's affairs? You see, our principal usually doesn't care about him."

"You did it? Fatty and I are like this, and I still call you Teacher Li?" Li Li felt very uncomfortable.

"That's right, call me sister!" Fatty Qian beat the snake and followed the stick. He had a lot of time last night to relieve Li Li.

Tian Li came to the place where the few people looked unhappy, holding a thick stack of Tanzanian shillings in her hand, and distributed them to several people, "What he gave it to you, let you buy it yourself."

"I'll go and get rich!" Fatty Qian saw that the money given by Tian Li was 500, and there were 1,000 or even 5,000 and 10,000!

"This thing is not worth much, 500 yuan is equivalent to more than one in our country..." The rabbit walked in with a smile, "Let's go after packing up."

While waiting for Mwini, Xie Kai first discussed with Liao Dong whether he could cooperate in this matter.

"Cooperation is certainly possible. But the scale must be limited, and in order not to cause trouble to the government, we must be mainly soldiers from other countries." Liao Dong said, "We cannot cooperate in all areas, no matter how good the conditions they give, we cannot!"

"That's true." Xie Kai nodded, and he thought so too.

No one can guarantee whether the other party is trying to test him.

Xie Kai was a little confused about Mwini's thoughts. What he regretted the most was why he didn't study the affairs of the presidents of brotherly countries with good relations with China. At least he was not so passive now, right?

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Kovaruby took a convoy to the hotel. The one leading the way in front was the Type 63 armored vehicle from China. Even the car in the middle was the ca770, a high-end car with three-row seats in Hongqi!

Xie Kai thought Mwini came here to talk to him, but Kovarubi told Xie Kai that this was coming to pick him up.

Xie Kai never thought that the red flag that he had always wanted to ride was in Africa one day.

"This car was a gift given by you when President Nyrell visited your country a few years ago. President Nyrell has always liked it very much..." Xie Kai got in the car. This thing is not as advanced as Xie Kai, who has seen countless luxury cars online in later generations.

But this thing is a national military chariot!

There is no such car at the base.

The only luxury car brand in China is also a sedan that countless Chinese people want to own!

Unfortunately, he did not enter the ordinary market in the end and became a member of the streets of China.

Xie Kai thought Mwini would meet him at a government agency, but he didn't expect that he was in a villa in the suburbs of the city, not far from the airport.

"His Excellency President, thank you very much for taking the time to meet me in your busy schedule!" Mwini, who Xie Kai saw, was not old.

Mwini held Xie Kai's hand and shook it a few times, "China is a great country, our brother country, and a country we need to learn from... When we were in our country's economic difficulties, we helped us build the Tanzania-Zambia Railway... If you come to our country to invest, I very much welcome you, and I hope that more Chinese companies will come to our country to invest in the future..."

Said a lot of compliments.

Damn, do you think of yourself as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs?

You are also the president of an African power, right? As for this? You are not representing the government, nor are you representing the 404 base here.

Xie Kai complained in his heart, but he did not show it. He did not get to the point directly like before. He smiled on his face and listened patiently to the president's statement on the friendship between China and Tanzania, hoping that Chinese brothers would invest and help Tanzania develop its economy.

"Xie Kai, our government is very supportive of your agricultural project. Although our country's grain output can meet domestic demand in the past year, once a drought occurs..." Mwini finally began to talk about the main topic, but did not talk about military cooperation projects.

Agriculture is a major industry for most countries in Africa.

However, there are still not many countries in Africa who can be self-sufficient in food.

"Mr. Xie Kai, can you tell me about the planning of your agricultural planting company?" Mwini asked.

"His Excellency President, thank you very much for your support. In the whole world, although China's agriculture is not as developed as that of the United States and other countries in terms of modernization, we have a very big advantage - to get more food on limited land and feed more people..." Xie Kai has always been good at bragging.

But this is not his blow.

China's agriculture is very advantageous in the whole world, and it uses the smallest per capita area to feed the largest population in the world.

"The reason I chose to be close to Lake Tanganika is because we want to plant crops such as rice and wheat. The climate conditions of your country are much better than our country, so this investment has a very generous return." Xie Kai said. "According to our preliminary plan, we will first reclaim this million mu of land for mechanized production, use our latest agricultural research results in China to plant hybrid rice. According to the yield of 400 kilograms per mu, only this million mu of land will be planted in three seasons a year, and 1.2 million tons of rice will be brought every year..."

"Is China's rice yield per mu?" Mwini looked shocked.

If such a high yield can be achieved, Tanzania will not be short of food at all.

Today, Tanzania's rice production is only 300,000 to 400,000 tons per year, while corn production is the highest, and it does not exceed 3 million tons per year.

Fortunately, many tribes hunt, eat grass roots, wild fruits and other things to make a living.

What if I could eat food like China?

"This is attributed to the successful research of Academician Yuan Longping in our country. He improved hybrid rice in the 1970s, so now the yield per mu can reach 400 kilograms..." Xie Kai actually didn't know. "When our Chinese people are full, they naturally have to think about our brother countries, right?"

Anyway, this is what the newspapers blew, so he just used it.

If you can't reach it, the African black brothers won't look for him, right?

"Comrade Xie Kai, is one million acres enough?" Mwini did not doubt Xie Kai's remarks.

They all know about hybrid rice in China.

And now the Chinese are full.

"Your Excellency the President, it's enough! The annual investment of this million acre of land will be very large, and we don't have much money at all..." Xie Kai knew the other party's purpose. He originally engaged in agricultural projects to just give mercenaries a cover to build camps. "So much land has been reclaimed, and the machinery, seeds, fertilizers, etc. needed are a very huge number..."

"Are you going to use mechanized production?"

"Why? Use manual labor? Mr. President, if you use manual labor, how much labor do you think one million acres of land will require to work?" It's not that Xie Kai wants to use mechanization.

Africans are too lazy. How dare they hire these guys to help grow food?

Maybe the seeds are sown in the ground and then ignore them. In the end, he will lose all his money.
