Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 54

Chapter 54, Activate this girl for me

The situation in Fuxing City is treacherous. Gu Hang can roughly guess a little, but he can’t know it too clearly.

He doesn’t have so much energy to care.

He is still squeezing the development progress of the entire territory.

The replenishment of the 2nd and 3rd battalions is continuing, and Gu Hang also plans to recruit another infantry battalion.

This group of new refugees is an important source of soldiers.

When there is a choice, Gu Hang has always tried to avoid the source of soldiers in a unit being too consistent. But now, other groups under his command have been mobilized several times, and it is difficult to draw more manpower.

So, Gu Hang simply spent 3 points of grace on the newly recruited 300 soldiers to complete the initial training, and then drew out some veterans from the 2nd and 3rd battalions and mixed them in the 4th battalion.

So far, the total population under Gu Hang’s rule has reached 8,000 people, and there are 1,100 soldiers.

The manpower gap is still large.

However, the actions arranged by Hodgson and his grandson before are gradually taking effect at this moment.

In addition to the more than 2,000 refugees who came with Lambert, there have been more and more refugees every day in the past few days. Because they heard the propaganda about the Governor’s camp, they migrated here with their families.

This allows Gu Hang’s forces to add about dozens of people every day, and as many as one or two hundred people.

Although it doesn’t quench thirst, it’s a good thing to have water to drink continuously.

After being manufactured by the black box mother machine, one smelting furnace after another was sent to the Waste Cave Society; trucks of hot ash stones, metal waste, and metal minerals were transported from the garbage town and sent to the smelting factory.

Part of the alloy plastic steel manufactured in the Waste Cave Society was sent to Fuxing City and sold through Denison Henry’s channels; part of it was left in the Waste Cave Society, or was made into armored vests, which were used first to supply the Governor’s newly recruited soldiers, but some of it would also be sent to the garbage town for sale. The other part of the alloy plastic steel will enter the newly established G9 gun family workshop, where it will be processed into various parts and assembled again…

The G9 gun family has gradually begun mass production in Gu Hang’s territory, and it is no longer like before, where it can only rely on the mother machine to produce.

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 eat up as many people as it puts in.

In the Governor’s Camp, the development of light industry is relatively slow. The textile factory and the synthetic starch factory have already started. However, the latter does not have enough machines. The technicians who have come 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.

The former can absorb a lot of people, but according to the plan, the heavy industry in Feidong Society has a higher priority in recruiting workers, and the textile factory here can only recruit female workers – even many female workers have gone to Feidong Society.

At the same time, the demand for construction workers in both places is also very large.

Factories need to be expanded, residential houses 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 population.

The unemployment rate of Gu Hang’s forces is almost zero.

This also means that every citizen who comes to the Governor’s camp has received a warm welcome. The supervisors of each factory, production line, and department are all scrambling to snatch people. Men go to factories, women go to textile factories, children are raised by the collective and there are educational institutions; as long as the elderly can still walk, there will always be a job for them, even if it is just to free up another labor force…

When the forces under his command were running almost as fast as clockwork, Gu Hang also ushered in the settlement time of the second month after his arrival on the Angry Owl Star.

[Current Gift Points: 88]

[Monthly Fixed Income: 56]

[Governor’s Temporary Camp: 17/Terra Month]

[Abandoned Cave Society: 39/Terra Month]

The monthly fixed income was issued.

He had 36 points of grace left before, and he spent 4 points of grace to supplement the 2nd and 3rd Battalions and establish the 4th Battalion. There are a total of 400 new soldiers who need to be trained. Adding the 56 points issued this month, the total is 88.

The value of the monthly income here is a quantitative comparison of the development speed. Almost half a month ago, this number was still in the early 20s, and now it has more than doubled.

This is already the limit under the current population size. If there is any further increase, the population must increase significantly and still maintain a very low unemployment rate and high production efficiency.

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 natural resources. Under this population size, if everyone can be used to their full potential, what a terrifying number it would be?

Letting them be unemployed, hungry, and cold outside the city is simply a huge loss.

However, speaking of the development of his own power, Gu Hang felt that his ideas had been expanded after meeting a person.

That person was named Osena.

It was after the battle in the alien forest that he found a person who could awaken into a hero 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.

Psychic talent is something that is rare in the human group. But after all, he has 8,000 people under his command, so it’s not too much to have such a person, right?

But after seeing the real person, Gu Hang was a little disappointed at first.

This girl didn’t have psychic talent as he thought.

As a psychic master, he could judge it.

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 found that he might have picked up a treasure that was no worse than a psychic.

To put it bluntly, there was nothing too strange. Osena didn’t improve any technology. She just reorganized the work 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, result assessment, execution efficiency… When these things were implemented one by one, the management efficiency of the textile factory was effectively improved. The inevitable chaos and extensiveness in the rapid development of the territory have been effectively improved.

This made Gu Hang realize that if there is really a limit, it seems that it has not been reached. Even if the population and equipment do not increase, the establishment and continuous reform of the administrative management system can also improve productivity.

The relationship between the economic base and the superstructure?

Gu Hang had a lot of thoughts in his head.

To be honest, if Gu Hang were to do these jobs, these rules and regulations, and these management policies himself, of course it would not be bad. But he is the governor, he is the ruler, and he has to take charge of the general military, political and financial matters. It is unrealistic to ask him to handle every detail.

Maybe it’s okay now, but in the future, when his power becomes larger, it will be less and less likely for him to do so.

He needs an efficient administrative system, and bureaucrats and civil servants are indispensable.

And the girl in front of him seems to be a good choice. Her potential has even been recognized by the system.

Then Gu Hang wouldn’t have to worry about anything else.

System, activate this girl for me!
