Chapter 691 – Element Number Crisis
Policy.
There is only one reason for not changing.
“This is the site where agribusiness will be built. From here to the end of the horizon. And five more times.”
Because it’s unrealistic?
Because it lacks business viability?
Because it takes a lot of time?
‘That can’t be possible.’
It’s just an excuse to oppose.
If you want to do it, you can do it by pouring money into the ground.
Korean Newspaper− “Trade deficit for ‘pure agricultural and livestock products’ to approach 20 trillion won in 2023”
Fact News− “Agriculture remains stagnant despite spending KRW 3 trillion per year… “We need to grow Dutch-style agribusiness”
Actually.
By global standards, an unspeakable waste of tax money is made every year.
“Not just here, but beyond that mountain, beyond the mountain, beyond the mountain?”
“Ha… I don’t really feel it.”
“The horizon is about 4 km long. It’s a level you can often see overseas in rural areas.”
“”Oh~!””
The government pours in taxes.
People suffer from high prices.
We are feeding the farmers and their families
‘Is that normal?’
GDP per capita ranks 30th in the world.
There is no country in the world that can compete with shopping cart prices.
The number of imported agricultural products increases every year.
It can be said to be the result of hostility toward corporate agriculture.
“If we can introduce large-scale corporate farming, we can replace agricultural products that have been dependent on imports with domestically produced ones. This will not only prevent outflow from the national treasury and contribute to price stability, but it will also contribute to national security, such as food self-sufficiency and domestic production of elements.”〈 Br〉
If it’s obvious, it’s obvious.
It is a topic that has been avoided in the world only in Korea.
It explains
It’s against idiots who don’t even understand.
“That’s so huge.”
“I’m proud of my young friend.”
“But…”
“Please tell me.”
“If a corporate farm were to set up here, how many people do you think would flock here? I mean the population.”
Politicians are interested.
We are looking around the site where the corporate farm will be built.
‘I might only be interested in the substance.’
Realizing social justice.
Service to the country.
There can be no such noble goal.
Self-serving comes first.
It is a job that can only be established if you get votes from supporters.
“We can grow without difficulty up to a population of 500,000.”
“50 Maan?!”
“Wonju, the largest city in Gangwon-do, has only 330,000 people.”
“Considering the size of the farmland, this is by no means an excessive prediction.”
Those supporters.
It appeals to the fact that it is a policy that can be expanded.
This is an important part.
‘Of course, there are politicians with noble goals.’
Such politicians must eventually be elected.
A politician without a member of the National Assembly badge is just a fool.
That’s why I pay attention.
Relevant matter.
Whether it helps the election or not.
“Primary production is the root of industry. Once roots are established, stems will grow, flowers will bloom, and fruits will bear fruit. It is the same. When a large-scale farm is established, many people will gather to process and consume it.”
Corporate farming.
Produces large quantities of crops.
It requires a process to process and distribute it.
‘When people gather together.’
There are also companies that try to sell products to them.
It can be said to be the process of forming a city.
It happens at a faster rate.
Why?
This is because success stories from rural areas are attracting attention.
“Oh…”
“It’s a story about a huge city dozens of times the size of your rural village being built.”
“This is going to be a truly historic project.”
It also touches politicians.
Their average age is close to 60 years old.
‘I don’t understand the changes of the times at all.’
Latte is horsed!
They insist that the way they have lived is correct.
I didn’t even get an education.
This is not a sarcastic comment; they are actually uneducated people.
“That’s right. If the lawmakers give their support, our country will be able to create a brighter future.”
What if those people wear armbands?
Only pride remains.
‘With the feeling of a magal jerk.’
Local politicians.
It’s just a bigger version of the village head.
Even the lady at the beauty salon wears a provincial cap.
I can’t think constructively.
“But do you think it will work out well…”
“If we farm this much, who will buy it all?”
“I’m not worried about that. There’s a mountain of stuff that I can’t sell because I don’t have it in Korea.”
“”Oh~!””
It should be done as if educating a child at eye level.
Stimulates greed.
‘I’m drawing it.’
What if the city grows?
You will accumulate political achievements.
And on an enormous scale.
Be honest about your desires.
He is tempting me as if he is explaining the reason for the rise in mixed stocks.
“The representative products are meat, milk, and fruit. It’s not that imported products are cheap, but that our country is expensive. If everything in the world is cheap except ours, it would be common sense to assume that our country is expensive.”
This is actually true.
Prices in Korea.
He’s just crazy.
‘If you see it overseas, you’ll be called crazy.’
Meat at that price?
Milk at that price?
Fruit at that price?
Are there only rich people in Korea?
Such sounds are actually coming out.
“These days, just eating pork belly at a meat restaurant can easily break 100,000 won.”
“Prices have risen a lot~.”
“If we contribute to the normalization of food prices, this will be an achievement that will be evaluated not just for 10 or 20 years, but for generations to come.”
“”Hmm! Hmm!””
Catch it.
This could be a huge political achievement.
‘It’s baby food that even babies can chew and swallow.’
It even stimulates fantasy.
Elderly people.
Enjoyed an era of high growth.
It was a time when one could succeed just because one was ‘lucky.’
If you live in such an era.
“This old man helps CEO Lee change the times!”
“Am-am, it’s time for the times to change.”
“It’s times like this when our politicians~”
A person’s way of thinking is also influenced.
I become obsessed with picking up a piece of gold along the way.
‘That’s why it was a time when fraud worked well.’
Easy to bake and boil.
I have been working hard on it for the past year.
Return to rural area.
Became a role model for saving the province.
There are a lot of politicians who want to spoon-feed.
“Farmers will also benefit. This is because the market is growing. Domestic products will begin to fight back in a market that was dominated by imported agricultural products.”
“”Oh!””
The first condition has been met.
Make local communities accept agribusiness.
Even if by force.
Democratic society.
It ends when you attract the majority of votes and politicians.
‘The problem lies next.’
Legal difficulties await.
Even if the provincial council gives permission, the National Assembly can reject it.
Even the government doesn’t know what will come out.
That would be the case under normal circumstances.
Daily News− 「”Urea water inventory bottoms in 1 week”… “If trucks stop, 300 billion won will be lost per day”
The light has really caught fire.
* * *
My mouth can’t help but feel dry
“We investigated and found that there was still inventory of industrial elements left, so wouldn’t it be possible to dilute them as soon as possible and use them for vehicles?”
Blue House meeting.
Industry officials gathered.
This is to resolve it somehow.
We must come up with a last-minute solution.
I said this in the hope that it would be helpful in some way.
“That’s called a solution…”
“Minister. If that were the case, we wouldn’t have come here.”
“Because it doesn’t work, we hope the government will solve it!”
Rather, it only causes excitement.
Desk discussion.
It is a situation that has no choice but to feel that way.
The government doesn’t know what to do.
There is a lot of frustration among people in the industry.
“No… If the government delayed the move even after knowing about the ban on urea exports, shouldn’t they be held responsible?”
It’s not even because of themselves.
Even if the warning was late, it was too late.
The anger reaches all the way to the head.
Although we are demanding a proper response.
“Either tell China to resume exports! Hold them responsible for unannounced regulations! They have to do one of the two, so we can trust them and wait or not.”
“Hmm.”
“There is such a thing as diplomatic relations with China…”
The government also has a position.
China.
It is one of Korea’s largest export destinations.
‘How important are diplomatic relations? Diplomatic relations.’
You can’t criticize it carelessly.
There is no choice but to find another solution.
“We will crack down on the hoarding practices that are taking place in the market and punish them to prevent price increases. We will also ask for cooperation from our allies to put out urgent fires…”
Buying time.
The idea is to hold out as much as possible until China resumes exports.
It is not a fundamental solution.
Everyone in the meeting knows that fact.
“What about Lee Chan-wook?”
“I heard there is plenty of room in the food market.”
“Should we leave our country’s factories alone and wait for foreign support that may or may not be provided for how long? Yes?”
It’s worth hearing a man’s name.
There is a lot of buzz in the world right now.
Lee Chan-wook.
It has a urea factory.
We may be able to resolve the situation.
“If a similar situation arises, we will be caught in the middle again and suffer. Please don’t just respond like a pee-peeer. Please come up with a trustworthy solution… I’m really dying.”
Don’t do it.
Standing with your back turned.
It further highlights the government’s incompetence.
‘…’
Such a situation.
The Blue House is also aware.
We have to come up with a solution somehow.
There is no way it wasn’t mentioned as one of the options.
Of course I reviewed it.
“Why, that kid…”
“How can we not do something like forced seizure?”
“Then, if you close the door, you only get a backlash.”
Even after industry people leave, the meeting continues.
The situation is that urgent.
Logistics in Korea is at a standstill.
It is also affecting approval ratings for the presidential election.
“Voices are also high among citizens. It appears that there is a clear solution, but if no action is taken… We will not be able to prevent distrust from growing.”
It must show a big impact.
In order to regain lost trust.
‘Lee Chan-wook.’
We must at least hold the devil’s hand.
