Chapter 211 Vegetables will also be available
"The national support force I need can only support the entire Soviet Union, because only the heads of the Central Presidium have this ability. If the KGB alone is in power, the news may be leaked. The support I need is to block the news about all agricultural production cuts this year, which will take at least three months." Selov solemnly asked, "This kind of issue involving national food can only be handled by the Central Presidium..."
Since it is a scam, first of all, as a liar, you must show that the Soviet Union does not need food, or even show that you are disdainful of Sudan, restrain your impulse, and never reveal a trace of interest in the Sudan corn warehouse. Even if there is one, you cannot admit it. It is best to push it to Bulgaria or other countries.
"You can guarantee that the food supply of the Soviet Union can be solved. As the first secretary of the Soviet Union, what reason do I have not given the support a young cadre should need? Local cadres who make mistakes can be postponed." Selov was thinking about time, and Khrushchev was also thinking about time. There was still a whole year before the next congress, and there were still three months before the next Central Committee, and if the time was controlled within three months, Khrushchev would not be in a hurry.
"It should be no big problem in exchange for upgrading the food industry and increasing the added value of agriculture. After all, Sudan also needs a certain amount of industry. If General Abud disagrees? I will kill him. No one can make the Soviet people hungry, and he will not do it!" When Selov said these words, a terrible look appeared in his eyes, and he was obviously ready for the worst.
At this time, Selov showed the true nature of the KGB. What if he felt that there were too many problems with the people? Answer; solve all the people with problems. Ukrainian rich peasants who resisted the Soviets to purchase grain back then would rather burn the grain than hand over the surplus grain to the country to complete industrialization. Stalin's solution was to eliminate the Ukrainian rich peasants who were fighting against the country as a whole. Western Ukraine has always been an unstable area of the Soviet Union and has always maintained its own independence in the career of the government. If these Ukraines were always unhonest, Selov could make Ukraine have nothing but farming.
Perhaps because he saw the dawn of solving agricultural problems, Khrushchev did not care about Selov's unpleasant expression. He trusted young cadres very much. Judging from the age structure, these young cadres should not threaten him. Moreover, the leaders of the entire Soviet Union were not more willing to let young people play a greater role than himself. Therefore, neither Selepin, Semichasne or Selov had any reason to oppose him. Khrushchev is already sixty-seven years old this year. It is not accurate to live for how long he can live, and he can hand over the shift in a few years...
"But the speed is still fast. Before the autumn harvest next year, you must get the Sudan's corn. I will give you half a year to operate to ensure the greatest success." Khrushchev finally breathed a sigh of relief, and finally avoided the embarrassment of using foreign exchange to buy food. He sang, "Winter is coming soon, and vegetable supply and reserves are also problems, but the problem of no food is serious. The promotion of corn is not smooth, and our food problem is really worrying."
Vegetables? This is also a problem? Then, there was a strange expression on Selov's face, which made Brezhnev, who had been observing Selov, noticed and asked, "Yuri, you are the most outstanding security cadre in the KGB in ten years. I believe that there is no better understanding of all the information in the world than you in the KGB. Since you can solve the food supply, what about vegetables?"
Vegetables? Isn’t that a problem with the Fruit and Vegetable Department? The name of the Fruit and Vegetable Department is very earthy. It is just that it is on the same level as the Ministry of Petroleum Industry and is affiliated with the Soviet Council of Ministers. Of course, this is still not unsolvable for Selov. People in his era have seen many things, such as a way to solve the problem of growing vegetables in the Soviet Union in winter. This method is applied to northern China.
"Yes, it's not impossible, but this year it's November, and it takes a certain amount of time since my idea was implemented! But now let's talk about the specific plan. The Netherlands began to use vegetable greenhouses for planting at the beginning of this century. By adjusting temperature and sunshine, our Soviet land was very cold. Many places planted grain harvests and the rest of the time they could not grow vegetables. There were only a limited number of vegetables to grow." Serov thought for a moment and decided to scare the big guys in front of him. It was most suitable to use the United States as a target. In his impression, the promotion of vegetable greenhouses in the United States was in the 1960s. He said directly, "The United States is currently promoting this technology in agriculture..."
It was a bit incomprehensible to just say this. Shelov asked Khrushchev to prepare paper and pen. His art class was not learned in vain. Although he only learned sketching, it was enough. Vegetable greenhouses are everywhere in the black soil. The grain self-sufficiency rate in Serov's hometown in his previous life was the highest in the country. That is to say, the province has a population of nearly 40 million, and can support 1.5 billion people. Well, even if the Soviets did not spend so much effort on food, the black soil of Ukraine is larger than his hometown. Three hundred percent should be achieved. The fact is that Ukraine's potential has not been discovered. It is simply a shame to this good place. If the Soviet Union failed to operate in Ukraine, then after independence, Ukraine once again refreshed the lower limit, democracy has been winning, and Ukraine is ushering in new failures every year...
After a few minutes, I drew a vegetable greenhouse in front of several leaders. Selov still introduced the main function. "The leaders all understand that the demand for vegetables is far less urgent than that of food. This is because vegetables cannot replace the filling effect of food. Therefore, there is no problem in establishing a vegetable greenhouse base to supply large cities such as Moscow. This is the power brought to us by scientific progress. This is the human beings who defeat the limitations of natural conditions with their own hands..."
"I think the vegetable supply for the 6.2 million capital residents needs a vegetable greenhouse area of 3,000 square hectares, that is, a vegetable greenhouse area of 30 square kilometers." Selov originally wanted to say 50 square kilometers, which would completely meet the winter vegetable supply in Moscow, but it was taken back when it came to his mouth. If he failed, it would be bad to hold him accountable.
To be honest, Selov's words were already very conservative. The area of greenhouses in their previous life was more than fifty times the entire number.
"No, General Selov, with a minimum consumption of 6.2 million people, it also requires at least 70 square kilometers of vegetable greenhouse area!" As the vice chairman of the national defense industry, Ustinov is very sensitive to various numbers. He can understand that there is something wrong with Selov's calculations when he thinks about it. Selov is based on the appetite of the Chinese, and Ustinov calculates according to the appetite of the Russians, so this deviation occurs.
"We already have channels for supplying vegetables, and we don't need so much. Of course, the main problem is that in the first year we will be experimental, and then promote it in cities from different dimensions, followed by the whole country. This is my opinion, Comrade Ustinov!" Selov commented cautiously. He was not willing to take too much steps and make things happen to him. The temperature in the Soviet Union was colder than his hometown. If it was not done in the first year, would Khrushchev even peel him off?
Khrushchev nodded in approval, discussed with Brezhnev and finally looked at Selov, "It's very good, it sounds very feasible. Yuri is not a boastful person. Judging from his past work experience, he is very cautious in doing things. I can agree with your suggestions in the name of the Central Presidium meeting, promote vegetable greenhouses, and work hard and not disappoint the party and the country..."
"Well, well, as a Communist Party member, I will do my best to ensure that there will be no failure! The KGB will never disappoint the First Secretary!" Selov almost said that only by sniffing out and eliminating the traitors, fortunately, I reacted quickly, so I did not slap my chest regardless of the occasion.
There will be food, cheats! There will be vegetables, build! On a trip to the Kremlin, as a spy chief, he brought back two tasks that did not belong to his authority. It doesn’t matter, the capable ones will work hard! Selov is not a calculating person. After returning to the KGB, he immediately summoned the biologists left by Academician Sukachev at the General Administration of Military Administration, and discussed related issues.
It is much easier to discuss the problem of vegetable greenhouses with these biologists. Selov just described the basic operations, which immediately aroused the interest of many scientists. He didn't need to draw a sketch to tell them. This was originally the job of scientists who were kicked out by Li Senko, and he didn't need to teach them a little bit. Selov just proposed the idea, and the rest was these people talking, and the more he listened, the more he felt it made sense.
"Don't worry, Vice Chairman Selov, we will help you complete the construction of this vegetable greenhouse base. We agricultural scientists ensure that we contribute to the vegetable supply of the people in the capital!" For this kind of remark, looking at the gray-haired scientists, Selov must give them applause.
