Chapter 985 Having children is a matter of concept!

"Brother, our country has relaxed the family planning policy since April 1st, and there are no restrictions on having children, but surprisingly few people in the compound are willing to have children.

Only Xiaodang and Zhao Laoer's daughter-in-law want to have a second child. It's not like they can't afford to raise the child, so why not have more children?

I am considering whether to have two more children. What do you think? Sister Yushui also wants to have another child, but she is too old. "Cao Jiajia is an old man in some ways.

"If you want to have another child, you can. It doesn't matter if you are 44 years old or older. I can let Duoduo help you. You can also have a caesarean section without any danger.

For others, it is a change in thinking. People who are now suitable for having children have basically gone through 30 years of family planning and know the benefits of having fewer children and planting more trees.

We have a lot of money in our compound, so we don't have to worry about not being able to raise children. Haven't you noticed that the cost of raising a child is rising?

If you raise a child from infancy to marriage and then buy a house for him, it may take about 25 years to spend even one and a half million dollars.

Most families don't borrow this amount of money because they simply can't come up with it. The average monthly salary in Beijing is only 2,000 yuan, 24,000 yuan a year, and less than 50,000 yuan for two adults.

A family's annual food and clothing expenses are 20,000 yuan, and they save 30,000 yuan. It takes 25 years to save 750,000 yuan. In the meantime, they also have to buy a house and enroll their children in cram school.

How much money can they really save? How much money will they have to raise a second child? We have already calculated these, otherwise we would not have allowed them to have more children.

Having a child is very expensive!

"So that's how it is. You are so cunning. Isn't this allowing only those with financial means to have children?" Cao Jiajia asked.

"You are very smart this time. This is the reality. The poorest people in our compound don't care how many children they have. Their annual income is at least three million, and they can afford to have children and raise them.

What about others? Families with a monthly income of less than 20,000 or 30,000 yuan basically cannot afford to have children but cannot raise them, so they hesitate to have children. It is still a question of the cost of having children.

"If no one has children, the population will decrease. A hundred years from now our population..." Cao Jiajia is good at doing the math.

"You can imagine, and others can imagine, that if the population is reduced from more than 2 million to 3 million, the first thing that will drop significantly is housing prices. With two-thirds less population, have you ever thought about housing prices?

There will only be 6 million people in the city of 1949. Will the housing price still be 7,500 per square meter at the population level of 1960? There will be no shortage of teachers and doctors by then.

On the contrary, actual living expenses will decrease. Even if they don’t decrease, their salary income will increase substantially, and a monthly income of tens of thousands of yuan will not be a problem.

With 2/3 of the population missing, and the country providing large subsidies for childbirth, there is money to be made from having children, so some people will have more children. You don't have to worry about this.

When conditions are good, our gene for having children will be stimulated. It is all a process. There are not many countries that have perished because of having few children.

Maybe in one or two hundred years, there will be only 30 million of us left, all the work will be done by robots, and we can just lie down and enjoy life. This is not impossible.

There are already many types of robots like this, and we hope that they can truly replace humans in doing some things in 50 years. "Cao Dongfang revealed some non-confidential information.

"It's like this, you are not afraid of population decline at all. What if the population increases significantly again?" Cao Jiajia asked unwillingly.

"Immigration!" This time Cao Dongfang didn't say much, and Cao Jiajia didn't ask much either.

"Brother, Xu Damao said that if our annual truck production increases to 2.4 million units, it will be enough for ten years, and even if the shipyard is expanded five times, it will not be enough. Is this true?"

"Yes. Our country is building infrastructure and expanding production. We need at least 20 million trucks (large trucks), but the domestic annual production is less than 1 million.

We will import two million trucks from your truck factory this year. The order will be given to you in the next few months. The Niuhou people have received four million trucks in the past two and a half years, which is enough for them in the short term.

There is a great shortage of trucks in China. Based on the current number of trucks owned, if production is not increased on a large scale, we will have to import trucks from you in the next ten years.

If the Mud Monkeys or we lower the import and export tariffs on trucks, your trucks will also be very competitive domestically, as they are all the latest technology.

It will be the best truck technology in ten years, and you will also be able to upgrade to it ten years later.

As for the European market, Niuniu has already given you an order for 200,000 vehicles, and there are only 200,000 left to sell. Xu Damao has found someone with good vision. "

"We've sold two hundred thousand vehicles before the start of this year. Xu Damao found a good person. Reward!" Cao Jiajia was a little excited. "Where's the shipyard?"

"The world's cargo ship tonnage is about 100 million tons per year, and our country's capacity is about 60 million tons, including the military's 15 million tons in principle.

In fact, it is only about 40 million tons, and the international level is only 50 to 60 million tons short. You don't even have 3 million tons a year, and the shortfall is even greater.

Expanding the annual output to 15 million tons is not a big problem. Several shipyards fighting against Japan want to expand to 40 million tons.

Not only do you want to build ships, you also want to repair some old ships. These are all projects of your shipyard. Xu Damao has found several talented people and his vision is really good.

It's a pity that you have little money and cannot join the banking industry. Xu Damao spent 10 billion to buy % of the shares, which is a little too little, but he is considered a wise man.

The best way is to take out 100 billion and start from the provincial (mud monkey changes state to provincial) bank. It doesn't matter if it's slow. "Cao Dongfang smiled.

"That's right. If the investment is bigger, the return will also be bigger, right?" Cao Jiajia didn't quite understand.

“There are many tricks in banks. If you open a bank and hire professionals, they will understand it. It will also be of great benefit to your factories. Why don’t you take your time to play around?

Ningning, Jingjing and I are going to play for a while."

“You haven’t finished yet.”

8. Your brother wants you to talk to Xu Damao and ask him to find a professional to evaluate. He is not a professional and may not know all the details.

"I know, sister-in-law, let's go play with Ruirui for a while."

"become!"

"This is an 86,700-ton aircraft carrier. It's so fucking huge. We are no different from ants standing at such a long distance." This was the first time that Vice Minister Zhao saw his own aircraft carrier.

"No wonder the navy is crazy about it. The 45 years and two generations' painstaking wait is worth it." The chief of staff has seen that he has the most things to do in the ministry, and he himself likes to have more things to do.

"Former naval commanders and many veteran generals have arrived. The navy has invited many people to observe. The navy is really proud this time. Let's go and say hello..." Deputy Minister Jin said with a smile.

"Let's go. The navy will be in charge of the ceremony. We will send one person. Whoever goes among the four of you can't steal their limelight.

We need to make them happy and we need to be happy for them too." Cao Dongfang asked the three deputy ministers and the chief of staff.

"Let the chief of staff go. He's the hardest worker here. He's been here more than a dozen times during the construction of the aircraft carrier over the past four years."

"Lao Ma should go. We are here to wave the flag and cheer."

"Let Old Ma go!" It was finally decided that Chief of Staff Ma would attend the launching ceremony and Cao Dongfang would attend the press conference. The old general was annoyed with them.

Cao Dongfang and five others went to greet these old generals.

"Dongfang, the aircraft carrier was launched. All the people in the navy should thank you for tightening your belt to develop the navy 20 years ago. 20 years later, the aircraft carrier was launched, and their long-cherished wish has come true.

Should we continue to build aircraft carriers? "The old general had been in the navy for ten years and had deep feelings for it.

"Of course we will continue to build them. We now have four naval fleets. It is not excessive to have one aircraft carrier formation for each fleet. This is a symbol of a great power.

It wouldn’t be excessive to have two more aircraft carrier formations, as we need to go to some places frequently. “Cao Dongfang did not hide anything from the old general.

"Good, good, very good. There are some places that our fleet needs to visit more often. I have some ideas." The old general understood immediately.

"What belongs to us should be taken back. What is owed to us must be returned as well." Cao Dongfang said dimly.

“I support you.”
