Chapter 197: Ceylon's Sorrow
May 20, 21 years.
Chen Jianxiong, who returned to Luzon from Malaysia, secretly came to Li Qingye's temporary villa.
Li Qingye read Chen Jianxiong's report through the headphone memory.
"You've done a good job, but the number of local soldiers and new humans needs to be further expanded."
Currently, there are 43,000 soldiers and 182,000 new humans stationed by Sapiens in various parts of Malaysia.
But compared with Luzon, Honsawadi and Siam, it is still too little.
Luzon has 181,000 soldiers and 578,000 new humans; Hongsawadi has 234,000 soldiers and 635,000 new humans; Siam has 61,000 soldiers and 357,000 new humans.
In addition, there are 36,000 other soldiers and 127,000 new humans distributed around the world, carrying out secret missions.
Sapiens Corporation has almost cleared out all the gangs, prisons, thugs, and scum in various places.
We cannot say that Hongsawadi and Luzon have reached the point where people do not pick up things on the streets, but at least the customs have undergone a tremendous change.
Chen Jianxiong nodded: "I will speed up the process."
Li Qingye took off the earphone storage device and asked with interest: "Why are you interested in Ceylon?"
"Boss, based on the research and analysis of the Strategic Analysis Office, I guess this place will collapse sooner or later, perhaps within one or two years," Chen Jianxiong explained.
"It's hard to persuade the damned devil with kind words. The Rockefeller Foundation seems to be a branch of the Franklin Foundation, right?"
Chen Jianxiong nodded: "Yes, they are the ones who funded the agricultural experts and environmental protection groups in Ceylon."
Li Qingye laughed: "What a smart group of people! They have completely banned the use of pesticides and fertilizers and are returning to organic agriculture? Are they trying to make me laugh to death? Haha... "
Now Luzon's use of organic fertilizers is among the highest in the world, but the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides has not stopped, only the proportion has decreased.
If pesticides and fertilizers are extremely harmful, then Homo sapiens would not have built its own chemical fertilizer production base.
If you keep listening to the spider's nonsense about things like this, you will be dead soon.
Chen Jianxiong also found it difficult to understand the train of thought of those guys from Ceylon. He shrugged and said:
"According to current surveys, Ceylon's rice production in September this year may be 15-30% lower than the same period last year. If the ban on pesticides and fertilizers continues, Ceylon's food production next year may fall further."
"What is even more serious is that Ceylon's external debt has exceeded 50 billion US dollars, but its revenue this year is less than 10 billion US dollars. Its pillar industries such as clothing, remittances, colored gems, tea, and tourism have all experienced negative growth to varying degrees."
Li Qingye raised his eyebrows: "It seems that your analysis is correct. This place will collapse sooner or later. What do you think?"
"Currently, there are only 372 people in the Ceylon Intelligence Station. I plan to increase the size to 5,000 to 6,000 people and control both the black and white sides in a certain area. Then, wait for them to collapse on their own and take the opportunity to push out our agents." Chen Jianxiong actually had no idea of targeting them directly.
The main reason is that Sapiens has taken over too much territory recently, and it will take some time to digest it.
Moreover, Ceylon is not qualified to have the Sapiens Company design it specifically. This rookie who has ruined himself is simply a fighter among garbage.
"How are you going to deal with the more than 50 billion US dollars of foreign debt?"
Chen Jianxiong's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness: "The Raja family's overseas assets are about 26.3 billion US dollars. Together with those other black and white groups, they control at least more than 20 billion US dollars in overseas assets. Ceylon has the habit of wearing gold and silver, and is also a gemstone producer. If we squeeze it out, it will be about 50 to 60 billion US dollars."
Obviously Chen Jianxiong had no intention of asking the company to pay for help, but instead planned to use local materials.
Li Qingye smiled with satisfaction and said, "It seems that Ceylon is not without money!"
"But in the follow-up, I'm afraid the company's vest will need to come forward."
Li Qingye touched his chin and began to think.
Judging from the situation after the collapse of Ceylon, it is estimated that its five pillar industries will not be able to recover in a short time.
Then one of the accounts must be fully involved.
After much thought, he felt that the Qingye Group in Hongsawadi was the most suitable.
First of all, the Qingye Group openly controls nearly a quarter of the agricultural land in Hongsawadi, producing nearly 10 million tons of rice, 8 million tons of corn, nearly 1 million tons of potatoes, 2 million tons of soybeans, and more than 400,000 tons of peanuts each year.
This is one of the few food producers in the world, besides ABCD and COFCO, that can feed 20 to 30 million people on its own.
This year, the total grain output of the three major groups in Hongsavady has reached a new high, with an estimated production of 32 million tons of rice, 27 million tons of corn, 5.5 million tons of soybeans, 1.8 million tons of potatoes (fresh weight), 3.4 million tons of sweet potatoes, 4.5 million tons of cassava, and 1.1 million tons of peanuts.
With a population of 56 million in Hongsavadi, this grain output has exceeded 1.1 tons per capita.
Although most corn is used as feed, it is also consumed indirectly by humans.
For rice alone, the average per capita consumption is more than 500 kilograms, and about half of this can be left as surplus, or about 16 million tons.
About 8 million tons of this will be used as internal food reserves, and the remaining 8 million tons can be exported or converted into feed.
The population of Ceylon is about 22 million. According to the basic food ration standard of 250 kilograms per person per year, Ceylon needs at least 5.5 million tons of food every year.
Since Ceylon could barely supply 70-80% of its own food, the gap was approximately 1.1 to 1.65 million tons.
The Aoba Group alone can supply this amount of food.
Of course, Li Qingye had no intention of becoming a philanthropist.
Instead, he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to completely reap the entire Ceylon, taking over the land, minerals, ports, airports, factories, electricity, communications, retail, water, gas, and banks.
Ceylon is too small, so there is no need for two or three large conglomerates. One Aoba Group is enough.
In fact, it is equivalent to Aoba Group buying the entire Ceylon with tens of billions of US dollars.
Moreover, Qingye Group does not have to pay for it itself. As long as the money is transferred, it can basically pay off the more than 50 billion foreign debt.
As for the question of how Ceylon will develop in the future.
Li Qingye was not too worried.
First of all, Ceylon’s strategic location in the Ceylon Ocean is very important, and port services have the potential for further development. This is one of the reasons.
Secondly, Ceylon's agricultural resources are pretty good. Although it is difficult to export large quantities of agricultural products, it is still possible to achieve self-sufficiency in food, vegetables and fruits.
Third, there are a number of submarine oil fields and minerals on the seabed around Ceylon, which are waiting to be developed.
With these advantages, the Homo Sapiens Company can simply find a few small industries to arrange there, and even not produce food, but specialize in other agricultural products.
With two major grain-producing areas in its control, the Homo Sapiens Company seems somewhat arrogant when it comes to doing things .
After all, Hongsavadi can export 8 to 10 million tons of rice, and Siam can export 6 to 7 million tons of rice.
In addition, Luzon’s food self-sufficiency rate continues to increase.
And strategic reserves are constantly increasing in various places.
There is actually an oversupply of food in the area controlled by the Homo Sapiens Company. It is possible to stop Ceylon from producing food at all.
It’s just that not producing food at all doesn’t fit into the security strategy of Sapiens.
After all, Ceylon is an island, and there is a possibility of being blockaded by foreign enemies. It is necessary to maintain a certain level of grain production and establish a complete strategic reserve before we can farm with peace of mind.
