Sanjesé still maintained his excitement the next day and went to the provincial government office early to arrange work. The recent boom in coal and oil gave him full confidence in the exploration of mineral resources in southern Argentina.
Several provinces in the south have also expressed support for him and welcome him to invest and recruit people.
The industrial development in Blanca City and the three coastal cities is so rapid that the shortage of people and workers is very common. The wages have also increased a lot compared with last year. Buenos Aires is almost close to the state-owned enterprises in Buenos Aires. Eighty percent of the factory level.
However, the operating costs of the factory here are only 60% of those in Buenos Aires.
The infrastructure facilities here are quite advanced. The cost of living for workers is only about half of that in Buenos Aires. The competitive advantage is obvious. The cost in the suburbs of Blanca is much cheaper than that in the city. Therefore, the factories in Blanca are becoming more and more expensive. As the number of workers increased, there was a huge shortage of workers, and Saint Jose even took steps to suppress the development of the tertiary industry.
In order to squeeze more labor, the idle police department also organized several measures to crack down on crime and develop prison factories, but the labor force was still in short supply.
And because most young people have jobs, there are fewer young people wandering around on the streets. The crime rate in Blanca City has dropped to unprecedented levels, and the security level is not only the first in Argentina, but also the second.
This has to make Saint Jose lament. Now even the assassins and spies sent to Blanca City to assassinate him have to work here seriously for a period of time before they dare to take any action. After all, there is no idle person on the streets of Blanca City. , the police began to worry about whether the public security was too good, and whether the mayor would lay off employees.
The power of industrialization has really released the energy of young people, firmly controlling them on the production line, and running for pesos every month. Young people no longer have time to commit crimes. There are fewer people drinking and making trouble. They go to work every day. I work a 10-hour shift, and after get off work I just want to lie down and sleep.
With such a large amount of oil production in the future, the industrialization of La Pampa Province will progress more smoothly. Before that, he needs to be fully prepared and convened a special meeting at the Department of Finance.
At the meeting, the financial department will inject more funds into La Pampa Petroleum and La Pampa Petrochemicals, so that the state-owned companies in La Pampa Province can legitimately participate in this oil competition, recruit oil workers, and build larger scale Petroleum refinery, petrochemical plant for petrochemical construction.
The discovery of large oil fields will also be a great benefit to the development of the automobile industry in Blanca City. In addition to being an agent for Fiat, there are also more localized R&D and brands of automobiles. The three major automobiles of Leighton, San Martin and Cote Dia The factory is progressing rapidly from the introduction of production lines to independent research and development of three major components.
The good news keeps coming. On the second day after the Saint-Jesse conference was arranged, Southern Petroleum discovered another oil field in the Plasa Winkur area of Neuquen Province. This time the oil field is not too large, and the estimated size is not as big as that of Diesel. One-tenth of the Cow Basin.
Southern Petroleum Company strongly advocated that the company be responsible for the extraction. Saint-Jesse agreed in principle. After telegraphing to Neuquén Province and discussing with the province, Southern Petroleum also obtained the agreement. Southern Petroleum suffered relatively large losses in the oil exploration of the Dead Cow Basin. This time it is considered a big loss. compensate.
So with the approval of Saint Jose, Southern Petroleum established the Wincourt Petroleum Exploration Company to continue exploring and developing the oil here.
Coal is also extremely important to the city of Blanca. It is estimated that the city of Blanca in Argentina alone consumes 40,000 to 70,000 tons of coal a day. Steel plants and thermal power plants are large coal consumers. How many tons of coal are consumed in Blanca City every day? The transportation volume of coal ships in the port is staggering, so St. Hesse's international freight transport fleet is transporting coal non-stop every day.
This cannot be solved in the short term. Once the international transportation line is cut off, the consequences will be unpredictable. Moreover, buying coal from Australia, South Africa, Colombia, and India is relatively expensive.
The local production of coal is of great significance. The province of La Pampa is full of confidence in this coal exploration and mining from top to bottom. The coal comes in time. The steel plants and thermal power plants in Blanca City are not saturated in production. .
The fiscal revenue of La Pampa Province and the profits turned over by major state-owned factories have given Saint Jose more money. The fiscal revenue in the first half of the year has exceeded 150 million U.S. dollars. In addition to being turned over to the national treasury, the remaining 130 million U.S. dollars are still available for use. , in addition to normal debt repayments, he is ready to continue to expand infrastructure construction in various cities and carry out a new round of economic expansion.
The completion of the Santo Buenos Airway, the Coastal Highway, and a large number of infrastructure constructions built with debt in the early stage have perfectly promoted the development of the entire province's automobile industry and construction industry. Blanca City's GDP is also catching up with Buenos Aires. Enos Aires.
The economic development of the three cities on the southern coast is outstanding. Originally, San Jose did not have the money to deploy industrial projects here. Therefore, these mayors also adapted measures to local conditions and focused on developing light industry, including textiles and clothing, food and beverages, footwear and clothing industries, and furniture production. their main industry.
With the spillover of industry and technology from Blanca City, this year the three cities have begun to develop metallurgical building materials, parts production, etc., and the development speed is getting faster and faster. Although San Jose does not have the money to develop factories for them, it has surplus construction production capacity and The company has brought high-quality and low-cost infrastructure to the three coastal cities, including tube buildings, industrial zones, and electricity.
Driven by the development of heavy chemical industry and agriculture, the light industry in La Pampa Province has no shortage of raw materials and has spent foreign exchange to buy a large number of second-hand and third-hand production equipment from Europe. Production efficiency and product quality have improved rapidly, and a number of large-scale enterprises have been developed. Larger private companies.
These companies have caught up with the good times and are much luckier than the Cohen Consortium. When the Cohen Consortium developed Maya Chemical, Southern Petroleum, Tractor Factory, Layton Automobile, La Plata Steel, and Sanhai Shipbuilding, many of the equipment were brand new. The price is also expensive. Second-hand ones are either unavailable or unwilling to sell. Although the quality is better, the price and cost are indeed much higher. Many new ones have to rely on connections and spend more money to buy them.
Industrial and commercial families from the interior of Argentina also moved to Blanca City on a relatively large scale for the second time. The scale was larger than the last time, and their funds were also larger.
At the same time as industrial development, St. Hesse paid more attention to agriculture. The newly reclaimed land did not produce high food yields, requiring more machinery and farm workers. It also planted a large amount of rice in a one-sided manner. It seemed that it already had the feeling of Khrushchev planting corn indiscriminately. , is not friendly to some water-scarce areas, so many rice fields have low grain yields and become upland rice, with high investment and low returns.
The five major state-owned farming companies headquartered in Blanca, Sunshine Agriculture owned by Cohen, as well as the newly formed Future Agriculture, and 45 agricultural cooperatives are the main force in agricultural development in the southern provinces.
Seven major companies have reclaimed a large amount of wasteland in La Pampa and Negro provinces in the south of La Pampa. There are as many as 50,000 to 60,000 farm workers under these companies. These workers are important to San Jose's development of La Pampa's agriculture. Assure.
Under the guidance of the Department of Agriculture and his old father-in-law, San Jose appointed a new head of the Department of Agriculture, Jorge Sobischi, who graduated from the University of Cordoba and has 16 years of work experience in the Argentine Ministry of Agriculture. He coincided with many of Saint Jose's views on building water conservancy facilities, developing chemical fertilizers, mechanized production, etc.
The new agricultural department also quickly issued a new "La Pampa Province Agricultural Reform Bill". Agricultural production in La Pampa Province has been revitalized. Many small and medium-sized farmers have received support, and a lot of newly cultivated land has also been Break up again.
For every kilogram of chemical fertilizer applied, 7 kilograms of grain can be added. The new Department of Agriculture has increased the promotion of chemical fertilizers, and Maya Chemical's fertilizer sales have increased a lot.
As the special steel plant under Blanca Steel Company finally mastered the alloy steel production technology, it successfully reverse-engineered Maya Chemical's ammonia synthesis equipment.
Maya Chemical has ordered 20 sets of large-scale ammonia synthesis equipment in one go and is preparing to build 20 new fertilizer plants across Argentina. La Pampa Province has also established La Pampa Fertilizer Company and La Pampa Fertilizer Chemical Company and ordered 10 sets of ammonia synthesis equipment. This News of the advertisement spread to all parts of Argentina. More than 50 fertilizer production companies suddenly appeared in Argentina. Almost all major grain provinces ordered hundreds of sets of ammonia synthesis equipment. Blanca City once again made huge profits.
The breakthrough in synthetic ammonia technology means that the chemical industry as a whole has reached a higher level. The La Pampa Provincial Department of Agriculture has also formulated a new agricultural development outline to support the development of the pesticide industry and agricultural machinery industry.
Therefore, coal is too important to San Jose. The synthetic ammonia introduced by Maya Chemical from abroad was basically based on coal chemical industry. Now the ammonia synthesis equipment has been successfully localized and local coal is also available, which is very important for the chemical industry of La Pampa Province. Development is an important shot in the arm.
However, previous explorations only included a few low-quality small coal mines, and most of them still relied on imports. The Prali fleet and the Thunder Mining fleet had to purchase a large number of second-hand European and American freighters to transport coal.
The discovery of Neuquén oil and natural gas laid the foundation for the research and development of ammonia synthesis technology from natural gas.
He had envisioned the establishment of a new state-owned coal development company a long time ago, which would not only compete with the Argentine Coal Company, but also better develop these two larger coal mines. This is a good opportunity.
He immediately issued a general mobilization order to the La Pampa State Assets Commission to form Argentina's San Carlos Coal Energy Company. The company was quickly established, a team was set up, and funds and personnel were in place.
Compared to the concealment and low-profile of Neuquén Petroleum, the coal mining activities this time are much more high-profile. San Jose sent a delegation, including senior politicians and party leaders from the provincial offices of La Pampa and Rio Negro Provinces. About 300 people from all walks of life, including media, representatives of exploration experts, etc. attended the coal mining ceremony.
San Jose sent his senior official Juan Paso, the head of the provincial office Daniel Scioli, the head of La Pampa State Assets Commission Augustin Justo, the former deputy general manager of Argentina Coal, now the head of San Carlos Coal Luis Alberto and many other important people were present.
The development of coal mines requires some workers, but the development of mining in Argentina is actually relatively average. For example, the manpower of Pajun Copper is relatively tight, and Saint Jose has also turned its attention to the Southeast Asia region. The latest Asian region intelligence shows that Asia is currently The most difficult country is South Korea, where there are many people and a lot of talents.
South Korea currently has a serious unemployment rate, and its per capita GDP is only less than 80 US dollars. Compared with the salary of 400 US dollars a year offered by the San Carlos Mining Industry, it is still relatively competitive.
Moreover, the friendliness of Blanca City to immigrant foreign workers is also obvious to all, so Saint Jose asked several companies in the Nanyang region to go to Seoul to recruit some young workers.
Saint Jose thought about it and realized that not only coal mines needed workers, but also oil companies, construction companies, steel companies, textile factories, and shoe factories all needed a large number of workers, so he gave instructions to the Cohen Consortium and several large state-owned companies. Go to South Korea to recruit workers, the more the better, because people there are short of jobs.
Immigration and labor from countries near Argentina are always limited, except for Brazil, which is extremely rich in human resources.
San Jose does not want too many Brazilians to enter Argentina, with the exception of Brazilians from Uruguay.
As an Argentine, he cannot allow new immigrants from nearby countries to form an overly influential political group, especially from nearby big countries. This will have a negative impact on Argentina's future development.
What St. Jose hopes is to increase the introduction of international workers from South Korea, North African Arabs, Southeast Asian Chinese, Peruvian whites, Colombian whites, Mexican whites, etc. outside of nearby countries.
Immigrants from these countries and regions can also enter Argentina to supplement the scarce labor force in the province. However, the number of immigrants cannot be too biased towards any one. There is no way. The current population of Argentina is less than 30 million. He also does not want to cause too much impact on the local area, which will cause dissatisfaction among local voters.
However, St. Hesse will not worry too much. The recruitment team of Prali International went to North Africa, Egypt, Algeria, and Mesopotamia for recruitment. There are many Arabs, Middle Easterners, and North Africans there. Blanca City is currently attracting There are more than 70,000 new immigrants, all of whom fled from the Palestinian areas, Egypt, and Algeria in the past few years. The war has caused some wealthy and elite people to choose to flee.
Among the immigrants in Argentina and Chile, some came from the great migration era of the last century, and the outbreak of the first Middle East war a few years ago also brought many of these war immigrants.
Although this was an unpatriotic performance in the eyes of St. Jose, it was indeed a good thing for Argentina. In later generations, many people of Middle Eastern descent in Argentina played a role in the development of the country.
There are many people of Arab descent in Argentina, mainly from the Ottoman Empire period, and they have been basically integrated into Argentina. Saint Jose once had a neighbor, Casio Brito, who gave birth to 9 children. He was a Persian descendant of the Ottoman Empire. Although Not Arabs, but there are quite a few descendants of these people in Córdoba.
In order to be more friendly to the introduction of international workers, San Jose personally drafted the "Religious Freedom Act of La Pampa Province", abandoning the limitations of Tianzhu Religion, and passed this legislation in the provincial assembly, realizing the realization of the La Pampa Province With the separation of church and state, La Pampa Province has now become a gathering place for various churches. Except for several bishops from other provinces attacking Saint Jose, it did not cause much trouble.
In recent years, the St. Jose government has launched a series of policies to attract immigrants and international workers to solve problems such as labor shortages in the province. The major state-owned enterprises in the three coastal cities have received support from large orders from the provincial government, and their demand for labor has become more urgent.
Blanca's ocean liners often bring workers from Europe, Asia, and North Africa here in droves.
In recent years, Saint-Jesse has frequently led the drafting of dozens of bills, all of which were passed by the provincial assembly with a high vote. This has enabled various reforms to be carried out quite thoroughly, clearing many obstacles for industrialization, and also allowing those who oppose him to overcome obstacles. It's coming more and more, but it's not a big deal at the moment.
In recent years, many immigrants from the Middle East have also settled in Argentina, which has been welcomed by Saint Jose. There are quite a lot of Egyptians, Libyans, Algerians, Syrians, and Palestinians. They are very interested in having children and like to grow up. The concept of family is very much in line with St. Hesse's population increase bill. Sometimes maintaining a higher fertility rate, or even promoting it as a model, has a great effect.
Of course, St. Jose will also use various educational and economic means to help them better integrate into the immigrant family of Argentina.
In order to formalize and legalize the situation, the Office of the Senior Official of La Pampa established the Department of Population Centers, with Pousse Kimal, a former important assistant of Saint Jose, as the director of the Department of Population Centers.
The Ministry of Population Center is responsible for making suggestions, modifications and assistance for the implementation of population policies, and is responsible for conducting population research, especially fertility rate research. It mainly adopts two major specific measures to increase the fertility rate and immigration rate, so that La Pampa Province Their goal is to have a fertility rate above 4, which means a couple can have one child. The young Pusai is already the father of three children, and he even plans to have three more.
According to the research data from various places studied by the Ministry of Population Center, this is completely possible. Saint Jose himself has achieved this goal. Traditional Argentine families have more children, like Saint Jose’s old friend Ala Gong has 2 brothers, 3 sisters, 2 brothers and 1 sister.
Whether they are Gauchos or immigrant families, they have traditionally attached great importance to fertility and family building. However, with the development of industrialization and urbanization, the fertility rate has become lower and lower.
In addition to population development, La Pampa Province also strives to balance development among various regions. In addition to the five important industrial cities, the remaining eight cities have also received help from various developments to improve transportation links between rural and urban areas and develop and create new towns. , subsidizing rents, social services and industrial infrastructure, and decentralizing light industry can also allow newly moved factories to make more money.
…
Historical experience tells Saint Jose that free markets and small government are not conducive to industrialization. These terms essentially provide excuses for established capitalist countries to invade developing countries.
Without a strong presidential palace, the efforts of administrators at all levels, and reasonable industrial policies, industrialization is just a illusory dream for weak and poor countries.
The population needed for industrialization can no longer keep up with the development of La Pampa Province, and the research talents needed for steel and petrochemical industries are also beyond the capabilities of people with ordinary education levels.
As the winter vacation is coming to an end, major schools in La Pampa Province are also ushering in the back-to-school season.
Blanca City and other cities in La Pampa Province have fully 350,000 students entering schools to start school, ranking second in Argentina and 10,000 less than Buenos Aires Province, including 150,000 newly enrolled primary and secondary school students. It has almost doubled. They have new schools, new dormitories, new textbooks, and new education. Many of the students are the descendants of new immigrants.
This is an extraordinary achievement, and it is the result of a sustained investment of millions of dollars every year. Spring is not a traditional enrollment period, but St. Jose still enrolls these new students in the school and allows them to receive an education.
Many of the students postponed their enrollment from the fall. At that time, school building construction, teacher recruitment, and textbook printing were not in place. This time, spring enrollment was directly launched, which is extremely rare in the history of La Pampa Province.
However, Saint Jose did not stop, but continued to rapidly promote educational reform.
From August 18th to 30th, San Jose published the "Act on Accelerating the Development of Higher Education and General Education in La Pampa Province" at the La Pampa Provincial Department of Education.
"A Bill to Accelerate the Development of Public Primary and Secondary Schools in La Pampa Municipalities and the Groupization of Primary and Secondary School Education"
"Act on the Implementation of Six-Year Compulsory Education in La Pampa Province"
"Several Measures to Accelerate the Development of Military Academies"
"Measures to Accelerate the Introduction of Industry Talents"
Most of the bills quickly gained the support of St. Jose. For the six-year compulsory education bill, St. Jose conducted careful and detailed discussions and finally confirmed it as a two-step plan of compulsory six-year compulsory education and nine-year subsidized education. , all school-age children living in La Pampa Province need to complete six years of compulsory education, including new foreign immigrants. After completing primary education, nine years of secondary education will also be subsidized by the Department of Education.
Among them, specific development measures have been promulgated in terms of school campus construction, school distribution, public canteens, and public library construction. New immigrants and international workers only need to live for more than half a year, and their children can apply for admission. Measures such as measures to protect new immigrants and international workers Descendants of workers gain the right to education.
This is the transformation that St. Jose hopes to make from original immigrant individuals to direct immigrant families. Blanca City has built a considerable community that is in urgent need of popularity. New immigrant families, especially those from other provinces, can also move in. Lapan can also Pa province expands its population.
More "child nurseries" are being established, mainly for infants and young children aged 1-3 years old. Different from kindergartens for 3-6 year olds, they are mainly to help young couples take care of their children better.
This is an old method found in the case of labor shortage. Female workers have become an important source of labor force in Blanca City, but housewives do not contribute to the development of industrialization. Saint Jose also wants them to have more children. They can solve their worries, work to support their families, and have more children.
In order to increase the birth rate, Saint-Jesse commends a large number of "model families" with 6-10 children, especially public officials. If there are too few children after marriage, there will be some invisible obstacles.
Saint Jose himself has given birth to 4 children, and his wife Elena is also pregnant again. Among his subordinates, if they have the same ability, the more children they have, the easier it is to be promoted. The upper class in Blanca City have more children. The atmosphere of the school gradually formed.
In the end, various new bills were passed by the provincial parliament, encouraging private capital to enter the higher education industry, establishing new universities, job training, working language training and other measures.
In order to ensure the development of the La Pampa Defense Force, three major military schools have been established: the La Pampa Army Officers School, the La Pampa Air Force Higher Vocational School, and the La Pampa Naval Higher Vocational School to cultivate military talents. Saint Jose himself serves as the military school. headmaster.
Soon, the more powerful city halls reported to the provincial government department to prepare for the establishment of a city university. The city of Otto was preparing to establish the University of Otto and the Otto Technical College. The city of Brato was planning to establish the Technical University of Brato. The city of Porto Colorado applied to establish Colorado College of Higher Education..., at one time ten cities in La Pampa Province had established their own new universities, and more than 9 new universities were planned.
The new university will be assisted by the already developed Blanca University system. Except for a few poor cities where the population and economic strength do not make it necessary to establish a university, the rest of the cities will have their own universities.
The funds for establishing the university were mainly bank loans, Provincial Government Department allocations, city raising, and social funding. The campus size was no less than 500 acres. Under the guidance of the Provincial Government Department, 8 construction companies were awarded contract projects for school construction.
These universities are not as large and powerful as the universities in Blanca. The planned enrollment in the future will basically not exceed 1,000 students, but they can also effectively alleviate the pressure on talent demand.
Compared with the various school buildings at the University of Blanca, which are still being improved, building a university is still a long-term project, but it is also preparing for the future.
In addition to the establishment of new universities, various primary and secondary schools were widely established.
Saint-Jesse began to integrate the various examinations for university entrance, which had already had some impact.
The La Pampa Provincial Department of Education officially promulgated regulations to transfer the power of entrance examinations to the La Pampa Provincial Department of Education and organize unified higher education entrance examinations, referred to as "college entrance examinations". Universities no longer have the power to recruit students, unlike secondary school entrance examinations. Same.
The move was openly opposed by Universidad Nacional Sur, with President Durante claiming the move violated Argentine education law.
Saint-Jesse still implements this law, but also has some private discussions with President Durant to block the mouth of National University of the South by providing some development funds.
National University of the South is the most developed university in Blanca City and has a lot of talents. Saint Jose is quite tolerant of them unless necessary.
In addition to local education, St. Jose also develops overseas education in Europe and the United States, mainly targeting several European countries. The persecution of top talents leaving by the Yankees is very terrible. St. Jose does not want to lose all the good talents.
However, those selected to study abroad must also have extremely high Argentine patriotism. The selected outstanding students are not the talents of other countries who have studied abroad.
