The two-month military training, the time progress bar has reached 75%, and it is coming to an end. Saint Jose stood at the front, looking at these half-grown young men.
"I'm tanned and stronger." Saint Jose also improved a lot during the training and basically gave up drinking. He saw that the skin color of these soldiers changed from pale and sickly to fat and thin, and they all turned into bronze skin. They were very energetic. , The weight loss effect is also good. There used to be those with protruding bellies in the team, but now they are much smaller, while some thin ones have become stronger.
Saint Jose really wanted to say to them, "The revolution has not yet succeeded, you still need to work hard," but considering that the impact would not be good, he just said it silently in his heart.
The small goose step also plays well. Argentina’s military training goose step comes from the third Germany. It is a bit exaggerated. It is not as good-looking as that of China, but it is still very good. The feeling of using the army is that there is a sense of energy. The Argentine army Overall it's still at its peak.
In recent times, Saint Jose has paid less attention to physical training and has begun to turn to cultural learning and construction.
In addition to folding quilts, doing goose-stepping, shouting slogans, singing, etc. every day, and then organizing and learning some simple military theories.
Saint Jose's control over the military has also become much looser. More and more people in these troops have been trained to fish, and the general purpose has been basically achieved.
On August 1st, the early stage of the military confrontation was handed over to Aragon, and Saint Jose was idle all day fishing and working on his own side business.

The construction of Prali Soda Factory No. 2 has been officially put on the agenda. The glass bottles are basically in place and placed in a nearby warehouse. The trial production is going well. Of course, the final equipment debugging still needs further work.
Now it’s time to clean and renovate the factory. The factory rented this time is very large, which is conducive to the settlement and upgrading of subsequent product lines.
It is said that at its peak, this cattle farm raised more than 3,000 cattle, and this was still a relatively small cattle farm.
There used to be a whole area of cattle farms nearby, but due to high cost pressure and fierce competition, the cattle industry in Cordoba City suffered a devastating blow. Cordoba is an indoor breeding industry and cannot compete with open-air farms. Cattle ranch.
Some moved to the city of Arrecife or the Gran Chaco Prairie, where it was cheaper and rich in corn and alfalfa. Most of the local small businesses went out of business.
The cattle farm rented by San Jose was built indoors. The building structure is pretty good. It has been abandoned for four or five years. It is spacious and cheap, and it is right next to the Prali factory. It can be used if the wall is opened.
San Jose did not have enough funds to build a brand new industrial zone, so it had to use local materials. A new production method appeared in Cordoba and recruited many former cattle workers, most of whom were in their thirties. , unemployed at home, with nothing to do.
It cannot be said that San Jose has changed the cattle breeding base in this suburb, but it does allow them to regain their "confidence" here.
Cordoba has very few talents for the development of light industry and food industry. Apart from factory directors and salesmen, it has basically not recruited particularly good employees in two or three months.
Maybe those talents are concentrated in the capital. Saint Hesse can only train them one by one on his own, and the structure of the factory is gradually improved.
From being naturally lazy to the current orderly order of the cannery, Saint Jose has adopted the tactics of the army and implemented semi-military management. He can basically follow orders and prohibitions, and generally obey orders. No one can get along with money. He gives too much. .
Production efficiency has also been greatly improved, but it is also related to the high wages and benefits provided by St. Jose.
The average salary level in the whole factory is more than half of the average salary of Cordoba citizens. Later, a reporter asked why you are willing to work hard at Prali Cannery.
Later, the cannery became a star enterprise in Cordoba. A reporter interviewed an employee supervisor named Marino Cocci.
Kochi said, "I used to be an employee in charge of a cattle farm. In addition to raising cattle every day, I drank alcohol. Later, the cattle farm closed down. I wanted to find a job, but found that I had no working ability. Unexpectedly, Cole There was no place for me in Dowa. Later, I got a little older and was almost 40 years old. I was no longer very eager for work. I just did some odd jobs for others and raised cattle. I really didn’t like that kind of work. People also dislike me very much, and none of my three children want to get close to me."
Kochi still has regrets about that time in his eyes.
"Later, I wanted to find a job and didn't want to leave Cordoba, but I was a little older and there was no job to do. I would lie down in the warehouse at home every day, or go drinking with friends, spending all my family savings. All spent,
Fortunately, there is no problem with eating in our country. Although I was anxious, I could only hide at home until one day, my friend Tornatore Dicki said to me, Hey, brother, I heard about Masaki Farm A cannery has opened over there and is recruiting workers. Do you want to try it? "
Kochi paused, and his deep voice suddenly became light and cheerful.
"That was the day that my destiny changed. I still remember that day I specially shaved my beard for the interview and put on a denim jacket. When I got to the factory gate, I was a little hesitant, but the security guy at the door enthusiastically pulled me in. I met the boss for the first time at that time. He looked quite young. He asked me to sit down and asked me many questions, which I answered one by one."
"Later he told me, Kochi, can you come to work tomorrow? I will give you a monthly salary of 4,000 pesos. My God, 4,000 pesos. You must know that at that time, we had a relative who graduated from college and lived in Buenos Aires. Lisi is only 3,000 pesos a month. The boss also told me, Hey, Kochi, you should lose weight. He plans to let me go to the freight team to exercise first. When I feel suitable, I can go to other positions. After the interview He also gave me two bottles of canned food."
"The moment I walked out of the factory gate, I jumped up with excitement and almost dropped the can. That was 4,000 pesos. When I was on the cattle farm, 2,000 pesos was not enough. You can give me 4,000 pesos. Annabelle bought the doll she wanted most, and she can buy a bouquet of roses for her loved ones. The canned food is really delicious, I only took a sip of sugar water, and everyone in the family smiled happily."
"After I came to work in the factory, I was determined to lose weight. I gave up beer. I ran home after work and worked hard. My relationship with my family became better and better. Later, my salary was increased and I became a supervisor." With a cheerful smile on his face, the reporter looked at this strong and good-looking Prali employee. After recording, he also smiled and gave him a big hug.
…
After many days of hard work, the construction of the soda plant is on the right track. One-fifth of the empty space in the factory is already filled with machines. Saint-Jesse invested 80% of his profits in the purchase of new equipment. It can be said that it is a desperate move. .
What is produced is not the most famous wine in the country, nor is it beer, and it only produces orange-flavored soda. Many people are looking at St. Jose's jokes.
Saint Jose has no formal establishment, and the commander gave special instructions, so no one bothered him in this regard, so Saint Jose's expansion work was done well.
More than 20 trucks of masonry and concrete were purchased from outside, the weak board building was reinforced, the floor was hardened, and the area covering an area of more than 20,000 square meters was hardened, and the construction of the factory building was started.
In addition to staring at the factory, Saint Jose has more money. He not only pays attention to international events, but also pays attention to some domestic trends. At present, the domestic unrest has calmed down a lot, and the defense forces and the defense forces in the city are fighting for power in a more peaceful manner. The method is not like that of previous years, where you come and I kill people and shoot guns.
This situation is a good thing for Saint Jose. The most feared thing about doing business is troubled times. Saint Jose considers himself not a tycoon. He just wants to make some small money, go to university, and enjoy life as a small plutocrat.
However, a kind of thought that princes and generals would rather be good at is also constantly urging Saint Jose's laziness, and a sense of debt to the history of life makes him unable to shape the rise of a country and the revitalization of the economy. Finally there was a strong interest.
What kind of land is this God-given land? It reminded him of a joke. God loves Argentina and has given Argentina everything, so he gave it the most incompetent government. Argentina has all the talents to become a world power, but it has fallen like this. .
Especially during the military training, he also saw the eager spirit of the army and the spirit of the people, which gave Saint Jose some new ideas.
I saw other characteristics when setting up a canned soda factory. It was the disappointment of ordinary citizens when they saw that the country's economy continued to decline, leaving ordinary people unable to find jobs and no way out. They indulged in drinking to escape reality. The joy of finding a job in a factory.
No matter how depraved and incompetent they are, the nobles in the city can spend money like water. The former slave owners and compradors still just changed their skins, sitting in the Senate and House of Representatives, talking about the country and deceiving ordinary people.
Local middle school students dropped out of school and became gangsters to oppress local people.
Even Saint Jose himself was a city guard, and occasionally relied on his privileges to exercise his power.
Saint Jose also saw the shining point of this city. The old men worked hard just to make their families richer.
The workers are happy after finding a job, and they work hard to improve sales after becoming a salesperson.
It is the peaceful coexistence of various ethnic groups, and there are also various military governments and civilian governments vying for power. Various ideas collide here, and various contradictions gather here. When one day they cannot be suppressed, it will be the source of chaos.
According to some newspaper information, the industrialization process of the entire country was also interrupted. During this period, to establish a simple soda factory or canning factory, all large equipment had to be brought from abroad.
The developed railway system began to be dilapidated, with insufficient transportation capacity and backward steam locomotives. Moreover, the country's external environment was also very poor, with few connections with the United States and major European countries. In particular, the United States suppressed the development of Brazil and Argentina, the two major South American countries. Argentina itself is not good enough, and now it can only play in the mud on its own three-quarter acre of land.
But what makes St. Jose a little strange is that even the predecessor of St. Jose has a good impression of the United States. Aragon just hates Brazilians. This propaganda is so awesome that St. Jose still sells cans under the guise of American craftsmanship. Well done.
To set up the cannery, Saint Jose had to personally take action to implement it smoothly. He also had to bribe the clerk 12,000 pesos to set up the cannery. If Aragorn hadn't stopped him, he would have almost beaten the guy. Saint Jose was fed up with these corrupt elements. However, given the national conditions, it is somewhat powerless.
Argentina is suffering from internal and external troubles. When the Cold War really starts, Argentina will have to face the Soviet power. Saint Jose truly understands that the new China led by that person is the real god-like figure. He has experienced such little troubles. , the opponent is also more powerful.
San Jose is also looking for some disruptive ideas, at least to accumulate some original capital through soda plants and canneries.
