Chapter 54, Activate this girl for me
The situation in Fuxing City was treacherous. Gu Hang could roughly guess it, but he couldn't know it too clearly.
He doesn't have that much energy to care about it.
He is still squeezing the development progress of the entire territory.
The reinforcement work for the 2nd and 3rd Battalions is ongoing, and Gu Hang also plans to recruit another infantry battalion.
This group of newly arrived refugees is an important source of soldiers.
When there was a choice, Gu Hang had always tried to avoid having too many soldiers from the same source within a unit. But now, the other groups under his command had already been mobilized several times, and it was difficult to spare more manpower.
Therefore, Gu Hang simply spent 3 points of grace to complete the initial training of the 300 newly recruited soldiers, and then pulled out some veterans from the 2nd and 3rd Battalions and mixed them into the 4th Battalion.
At this point, the total population under Gu Hang's rule reached 8,000 people, and there were 1,100 soldiers.
The manpower gap is still huge.
However, the arrangements made by Hodgson and his grandson earlier were gradually taking effect at this moment.
In addition to the more than 2,000 refugees who came with Lambert, in the past few days, refugees have been coming here every day with their families after hearing the propaganda about the Governor's camp.
This allows the forces under Gu Hang to add dozens or even one or two hundred people every day.
Although it doesn't quench your thirst, it's a good thing to have water to drink continuously.
After being manufactured by the black box mother machine, smelting furnaces were sent to the Waste Cave Society; truckloads of hot limestone, metal waste, and metal minerals were transported from the garbage town and sent to the smelting factory.
Part of the alloy plastic steel produced in the Waste Cave Society was sent to Renaissance City and sold through Denison Henry's channels; part of it remained in the Waste Cave Society or was made into armored vests, which were first used to supply the Governor's newly recruited soldiers, but some of it was also sent to Garbage Town for sale. The other part of the alloy plastic steel would enter the newly established G9 gun family workshop, where it would be processed into various parts and assembled again...
The G9 gun family has gradually begun to be mass-produced in Gu Hang's territory. It is no longer dependent on the production of mother machines as before.
The population of Feidong Society has now even exceeded that of the Governor's Camp.
Heavy industry is simply a population black hole, as if it can consume as many people as possible.
In the Governor's Camp, the development of light industry is relatively slow. The textile factory and the synthetic starch factory have already started operation. However, the latter does not have enough machines. The technicians who came down from the starship have not yet figured out how to build a synthetic starch machine based on the current industrial foundation. Now there are only two production lines in operation.
Logically speaking, the former could absorb a lot of population, but according to the plan, the heavy industry in Feidongshe has a higher priority in recruiting workers, and the textile factories here can only recruit female workers - and even many female workers have gone to Feidongshe.
At the same time, there is a great demand for construction workers in both places.
Factories need to be expanded, residential buildings need to be expanded, and in addition to these, there are also shops, distribution centers, canteens, school buildings, administrative agencies... These all need to be built. And the corresponding facilities also need to be filled with population.
Population, population, and more population.
The unemployment rate of Gu Hang's forces is almost zero.
This also means that every citizen who came to the Governor's camp was warmly welcomed. The supervisors of each factory, production line, and department were all scrambling to snatch people. Men went to factories, women went to textile factories, children were raised by the collective and had educational institutions; as long as the elderly could still walk, there would always be a job for them, even if it was just to free up another labor force...
While the forces under his command were running at a rapid speed like clockwork, Gu Hang also arrived at the settlement moment of the second month after his arrival at the Angry Owl Star.
[Current Gift Points: 88]
【Monthly fixed income: 56】
[Governor's Temporary Camp: 17/Terra Month]
[Waste Cave Club: 39/Terra Moon]
Fixed monthly income is paid out.
He had 36 points of grace left before, and he used them to replenish the 2nd and 3rd Battalions, and to establish the 4th Battalion. There were a total of 400 new soldiers that needed to be trained, and he spent 4 points of grace. Adding the 56 points issued this month, the total was 88.
The monthly income here is a very quantitative comparison of the development speed. About half a month ago, this number was in the early 20s, and now it has more than doubled.
This is already the limit under the current population size. To increase it further, the population must increase significantly and still maintain an extremely low unemployment rate and high productivity.
Under this premise, Gu Hang looked at the hundreds of thousands of poor people outside Fuxing City and felt that it was a waste of resources.
With this population size, if everyone could be fully utilized, what a terrifying number that would be!
It would be a huge loss to leave them unemployed, hungry and cold outside the city.
However, speaking of the development of his own power, after meeting a certain person, Gu Hang felt that his ideas had been broadened.
That person's name is Ossena.
It was after the battle in the alien woodland that he discovered the person who could awaken into a hero that appeared in the [Hero] interface.
Gu Hang initially thought that this girl, who didn't look like a warrior at all, might have some kind of psychic talent, and after activating it in the [Hero] interface, she could awaken into a psychic.
There is only one person with psychic talent in the human population. But after all, he has 8,000 people under his command, so it's not too much to have one person like him, right?
But after seeing the real person, Gu Hang was a little disappointed at first.
This girl did not have psychic gifts as he had thought.
As a psychic himself, he was able to make that judgement.
But after in-depth communication, and even after learning about what this girl did after joining the textile factory and becoming a manager, Gu Hang discovered that he might have picked up a treasure that was no worse than a psychic.
To be honest, there is nothing too surprising. Ossena did not improve any process. She just reorganized the working system of the entire factory according to her own ideas and trained a few right-hand men to implement the system with her.
Account records, work plans, incentive policies, results assessment, execution efficiency... After these things were implemented one by one, the management efficiency of the textile factory was effectively improved. The chaos and extensiveness that were inevitable in the rapid development of the territory were effectively improved.
This made Gu Hang realize that if there was really a limit, it seemed that it had not been reached. Even if the population and equipment did not increase, the establishment and continuous reform of the administrative system could improve productivity.
What is the relationship between economic base and superstructure?
Gu Hang’s mind was full of random thoughts.
To be honest, if Gu Hang were to do all these tasks, these rules and regulations, these management policies, of course he would not be bad. But he is the governor, he is the ruler, he has to take charge of the military, politics and finances. It is unrealistic to ask him to handle every detail.
Maybe it's okay now, but in the future, when his power becomes even greater, it will become increasingly unlikely for him to do so.
He needs an efficient administrative system, and bureaucrats and civil servants are indispensable roles.
The girl in front of him seemed to be a good choice. Her potential was even recognized by the system.
Then Gu Hang wouldn't have much else to worry about.
System, activate this girl for me!
