Chapter 96, the governor can't come in vain, right?
The reason why Ossina was asked to screen the whole city was not to ask the girl to investigate the case.
Not professional either.
In fact, Gu Hang hopes that she can do this while distributing food throughout the city and ensuring people's livelihood.
But Gu Hang didn't have any particularly high hopes for this city-wide siege, he just did it by the way.
The main reason is that there is no particularly useful screening method.
A cultist won't let you ask him if he is, so he will directly admit it.
He also told Ossina that this matter was done conveniently, and the main task was to ensure people's livelihood.
The army that followed Gu Hang into the city has already taken control of several grain warehouses.
But at this time, a bad news came first:
The city's food reserves are not enough.
According to the regular consumption of the city's million population, there is only about [-] days of stock.
This level of grain reserves is too dangerous for a city that mainly relies on foreign trade grain imports.It seems that the previous coalition government did not understand the importance of food security at all.
But looking at it from another angle, it seems to make sense.
After Ossina took over the granary, the poor in the outer city were also counted and consumed according to the per capita standard of the governor's camp and the abandoned cave society; but before that, the alliance authorities may have never calculated it that way.They may only regard the 10 people in the inner city as serious people, but the poor in the outer city?Figure it out for yourself.
Of course, in fact, the food supply for the residents of the outer city must come from these grain storages, otherwise how would the residents of the outer city live?If you really gnaw the bark, you won't be able to survive 90 to [-] people.
It's just that the residents of the outer city don't eat as much as the standard population consumption calculated by Ossina. With a population of 90 to 30 people, they may only consume 50 to [-] people/day/food consumption a day.
On average, you can only eat one-third to one-half of your food every day, and malnutrition is normal.And here is the average, which means that some people from outside the city can eat and drink enough, and some may not be able to eat for two days in a row.
This situation is also in line with the actual situation in the city outside Fuxing City.After several months of survival in the outer city, Ossina clearly understood that the life of the residents in the outer city was really like this.
According to this standard, [-] days of food can be turned into a reserve of [-] to [-] days.
But Ossena decided that wasn't the case.
She will provide standard portions of food to the population outside Fuxing City.
Otherwise, before the governor comes, we will not have enough to eat; when the governor comes, we will still not have enough to eat... Then the governor came in vain?
At the current stage, it is an important step to establish prestige for the Governor-General to ensure that the rations are fully rationed to ensure that everyone has enough to eat.
The inner city people are indifferent to the coming governor?
Then go indifferent, is it really the era of the previous alliance?Only inner city people count as people?
During the long communication between Gu Hang and Ossina, they both made it clear that the greatest wealth of Fuxing City lies in the outer city with a population of almost 10.As long as they support the governor wholeheartedly, everything else is a paper tiger.
The rich and powerful can be overthrown and all means of production confiscated. Gu Hang does not need their support to complete his rule;
Residents in the inner city who live relatively well, don't care if you feel resentful or not, just do things honestly, and have your own way to manage things if you dare to mess around;
In the outer city, a large number of impoverished people will have improved living conditions. They will live a better life under the Governor's benevolence, and then quickly return to the factory and work to shine for the Governor's cause .
Of course, it's not enough to just send out food.In other words, distributing food is the basis of solidifying the governor's rule, and it is the price paid; on top of the price, how to get the harvest stably is the more challenging part for Osena.
Ossina clearly knew that just opening a warehouse to release food was not considered her own ability.
It's like no one can do it.
While paying for the food, she had to make it clear to the residents that this was a favor from the governor.Only in this way can the value of releasing grain be brought into play.
At the same time, she had to anchor on a principle from the very beginning: she couldn't support people for nothing.
She didn't intend to define this batch of food as simple relief and welfare.
Whether Fuxing City is poor or rich depends on how one judges it.To say that they are rich is to only treat the inner city people as human beings, and they are indeed quite rich, at least by the standards of this wasteland.Their wealth is based on the inappropriate exploitation of the 10 people in the outer city.
But now, Ossina wants to see all the 90 million people in the outer city as human beings, so it adds such a huge burden all at once.
Judging by such standards, it is impossible to be considered rich.
Fuxing City's current reserves cannot support high welfare.
Ossina will give the residents of the outer city a normal life, but all she can give is opportunities and platforms.If they really want to live a decent life, they still have to rely on the hard work of their own hands.
This is certainly not as beneficial as directly distributing food, but Ossina would rather lose a little of the benefits of being kind to others, but also ensure that the finances of the revival city are on a relatively healthy road.
Moreover, the residents of the outer city must not lack the willingness to work hard.Ossina, who had lived in the outer city, fully believed in this.
In this regard, Ossena roughly worked out a kind of temporary system.
She will distribute food to residents outside the city without distinction, but only for a few days, and only one-third of the rations, which can ensure that people will not starve to death.
Want more, need to buy.
The government grain sales window opened will sell grain at a fair price and buy in limited quantities according to the head ratio system.Severely crack down on the behavior of gangs buying and hoarding food through other people's quotas.
For a long time to come, the grain industry will become a government-run industry, and the governor's government will do its best to ensure the stability of grain prices.Private individuals are not allowed to intervene in this industry for the time being.
As long as they can get cheap and stable food purchase channels, the basic life of residents in the outer cities can be guaranteed.
Of course, there are also a considerable number of outer city residents who have no savings.Recently, because of the war, I couldn't get a job, and my hands stopped talking.
Ossina also has supporting means.
Next, all factories, handicraft factories, and shops that have been re-controlled will absorb the employed population after reopening.Daily settlement of 'food stamps' can be directly exchanged for food.
Ossina thought about the work point system and decided not to promote it in Fuxing City for the time being.
The administrative team she has now, just a dozen or so clerks, really can't promote the implementation of work points and replace the existing currency system.
The turbulence will be great, and stronger administrative capabilities and grassroots control are needed to do this well.
In fact, she and the dozen or so people under her can't handle even the tasks of distributing food and promoting the resumption of work and production.
But fortunately, the army will come to help her.
