Chapter 147: Guangdong Mediation (3)

I have tried my best to choose when it is late at night. At this time, few people can watch it at the fastest. It will usually take at least half an hour to modify it to the correct content.

It's okay to read on the computer, and it's okay to automatically subscribe with the mobile app. As long as I haven't clicked on the chapter before I modified it. Once I clicked on it, the wrong chapter content will be downloaded and entered into the mobile phone cache. At this time, even if I modify the mobile client, it is still the wrong content and will never change.

At this time, you can only download this chapter again. If it doesn’t work, you can only delete the book and remove it, and then add it again and put it on the shelves.

There are few people reading niche books and are rampant. There is no way to do so. If you don’t do this, you can’t make it. I’m sorry.

When the two were having dinner, people from groups of people came to greet Technician Liu from time to time. It can be seen that he is very feasting locally and has a good popularity.

"Hey, there are spices in this soup?" Zhou Dahe shouted in surprise after taking a sip of the soup.

"Oh, that's cinnamon." Technician Liu said in a slightest way, "If you don't use this, the mutton smells too strong, and many people are not used to it. Well, this spice was shipped from Xiangshan Castle and it is not expensive. It only costs one pound and only costs 20 cents per pound. This bowl only uses two or three grams, but it is only worth half a cent, hey!"

Technician Liu is a senior technician at the Agricultural Technology Station. His monthly salary is 6 yuan and 50 cents. There are also benefits to pay during festivals. Half a cent is really nothing in his eyes.

"Xiangshan Fort? Where is this?" Zhou Dahe asked in confusion. In his memory, there was indeed no place called Xiangshan Fort in the middle of the country.

"Hey, my little brother is really devoted to studying and doesn't care about national affairs." Technician Liu teased, and then said: "Xiangshan Fort is a new settlement just established last month, and the first batch of immigrants settled in the last month. However, the specific urban construction began one after another half a year ago. The specific location is at the entrance of Yazi Lake, the area opposite Zhenhai Port. Well, the propaganda team said in the market before, and the "Prince Truth" was also published in Pravda. Little brother, it's not that I'm talking about you, our yamen... Uh... civil servants can't be clever and confused. This news must be well-versed. Pravda must be ordered. Do you understand?"

"Brother Liu's heartfelt words, I will keep in mind." Zhou Dahe said gratefully. Indeed, he was only busy studying in the accounting vocational school a while ago, and even the banquets between some classmates were rejected. Now he thinks about it, but now he is too autistic. Of course, from another perspective, it is not like this foundation. It can only be said that ordinary people will not make a big splash in the graduation exam and get the third place.

In fact, the matter of Xiangshan Fort is not as simple as Technician Liu said. Or this time the Executive Committee did not only establish Xiangshan Fort, a new settlement. In addition to Xiangshan Fort, two other new settlements were also established in the Yazi Lake area, and Xiangshan Fort is just one of them.

In early November, the third and last resettlement site of 1640 was settled at the estuary of Yazi Lake. This settlement, named Xiangshan Fort, is located in the estuary of Yazi Lake, opposite the town port of Zhenhai Harbour. Before this group of new immigrants (400 Ming people, 200 French people, and 100 Germans) arrived here, there were only some lonely naval forts in this Shaba area covered with cinnamon woods.

Fortunately, the city here has some foundation. Later, the Government Council sent a South African construction team to build a new castle near the Naval Fortress, integrating it with the Naval Fortress. The residents of this settlement mainly pick and plant cinnamon spices, supplemented by planting and cultivating grapes (the local sandba terrain is particularly suitable for grape planting). In the future, some wineries and other projects may be held. Whether it is spices, grapes or wine, in addition to partially meeting the consumption needs of the domestic market, most of them are still used to export to neighboring areas in exchange for foreign exchange.

During the slack season, farmers in Xiangshan Fort can also grow some vegetables, raise some poultry, and raise some goats. The technicians from the breeding center of the Animal Husbandry Bureau took a fancy to the environment here and specially set up a breeding station here. In the future, some of the cultivated East Coast Bighorn goats and their subsequent experimental varieties will be handed over to farmers for breeding to observe the disease resistance, adaptability, and genetic stability of each breed to better improve the existing varieties.

Before Xiangshan Fort, two other settlements had been established in the Yazi Lake area.

In early October, eight hundred new immigrants (500 Ming people and 300 French people) were assigned to the north bank of the Two Lakes Canal (Lake Milin - the former San Gonzalo Canal between Lake Duck Lake) near the Duck Lake, a rich water source on the west bank of the Pelotas River (near Pelotas, Brazil) where they began to build a new settlement named Fortress of the Bauertos.

In the past two years, with the rise of the domestic shipbuilding industry, the industrial development of Zhenhai Port has also begun to accelerate. As of October 1640, the permanent population of the place had officially exceeded 4,000, and the entire city was filled with naval officers and soldiers, industrial workers and their families of shipyards. It is no exaggeration to say that this is a city born from the sea.

However, with the development of industry, the agriculture in the area has always relied on the outbound transportation of Ping'an County in the north, which occupies the precious tonnage of inland transport. In addition, Zhenhai Port also has to undertake the replenishment of transport ships such as north coal transport and the west mine northward, and the material gap has always been large. Therefore, the Executive Committee simply decided to build a new settlement near it and take over the important task of supplying materials for the coming and going ships. This new settlement is located in an excellent geographical location, and almost all ships traveling from south to north have to pass here, especially after the canal from the southern extension of the Qiuyi River to Dongfang Port is opened, it will become the most important node of the domestic canal network of the East Coast Republic.

After the completion of Hekou Fort, the local area will use agriculture and animal husbandry as one of its main business activities to make full use of the rich water systems and lake resources nearby, vigorously develop rice, soybean and corn planting industries, and at the same time raise cattle and sheep. The Executive Committee optimistically estimates that in just two years, the area near Zhenhai Port may no longer need to transfer supplies from the north.

A dock will be built along the river in Hekoubao River, and a small ship repair shop will be established to provide repair and maintenance for the passing ships. This is not only the plan, and will be led by the Ministry of Industry and Commerce next year, the First Machinery Factory and the Zhenhai Shipyard will also draw some technicians to establish an inland steamer factory here, which will specifically build a small steamer for domestic inland shipping, and steam modifications for dozens of existing inland flat-bottom transport ships. After this shipyard has some technical foundation, it will develop special ships such as sand digging ships, dredgers, and hoisting ships in the future to become a civilian special ship factory.

In mid-to-late October, another group of new immigrants (400 Ming people, 300 French people and 100 Chalua people) were allocated to the vast plains between the South San Lorenzo River and the Camakuen River, and began to cut down trees, clear weeds, and build water conservancy facilities. In this area named West Lake Fort (meaning west of the Yazi Lake), the Executive Committee is expected to migrate about 3,000 immigrants, and reclaim 20,000 to 30,000 acres of farmland are cultivated here, mainly planting crops such as rice, wheat, soybeans, and corn, and gradually build this place into a granary of the East Coast Republic of China. After all, the slightly arid Dingyuan Township area is not very suitable as an agricultural planting area. Only the Yazi Lake basin with warm climate and abundant water resources is the natural grain production area.

After the various crop yields here stabilize, the Ministry of Agriculture and United Industrial Credit Bank will also invest in the construction of a series of deep-processing enterprises such as machine oil pressing plants (using soybeans as raw materials), machine flour mills, and breweries (using corn as raw materials) to fully tap the potential of this agricultural production area. At the same time, the development of rich wood resources nearby has also been put on the agenda. It is reported that the Executive Committee has recently formulated a plan to relocate the wood processing plant in Henan Township, Dongfang County to Xihu Fort, to use the rich wood resources nearby nearby to provide a large number of products for the growing demand for furniture, office desks, chairs, industrial and agricultural supplies in China. Although the Henan Township Government is not very happy, considering that the forest resources in the temperate grassland area are extremely precious and should not be harvested in large quantities to avoid destroying the local environment, it has decided to relocate the only professional wood processing plant in China after careful consideration.

"The first batch of these three newly established settlements this year has allocated 2,300 new immigrants. It is expected that thousands of immigrants will be sent to the above three places in the next two years to develop them as soon as possible." Technician Liu drank beef soup while whispering the news from the newspaper. However, as he spoke, he turned to Zhou Dahe in a mysterious face and said: "I heard that after these new immigrants this year arrived, some patriots in the government who were worried about state affairs clamoring to allocate most of them to Hezhongbao and the New China Colony to accelerate the development process of the two places and create conditions for direct flights to the Ming Dynasty. However, for some reason, this matter was rejected."

Speaking of this, Technician Liu looked regretful.

"Haha." Zhou Dahe smiled perfunctorily. Technician Liu didn't know where he heard the rumor. How could he, a technician at a small township agricultural technology station know about the inside story? It was probably just the nonsense he heard from a table.

Fortunately, the country is not in the hands of these people. The experienced and persistent executive committee officials did not follow these people's ideas. They still know the importance of deep and fundamental. What is the fundamental? The East Coast and Yazihu ​​area are the fundamentals and foundations of the country. Only after laying a solid foundation and improving local construction, will the human and material resources at hand be appropriately invested in overseas colonies when they have spare time, rather than prioritizing the development of overseas territory before the horse.

The two ate for a while, then left. Technician Liu was more enthusiastic and paid their accounts together. Two bowls of beef vermicelli soup cost 4 cents, a plate of sauce beef and two dishes of side dishes added up to 1 jiao and 2 cents, a total of 1 jiao and 6 cents. The Albanian who had sat opposite them had left quietly at some point. "Haha." Zhou Dahe smiled perfunctorily. Technician Liu didn't know where to hear the rumor. How could this level of decision-making be known to him, a technician at a small township agricultural technician station? It was probably just a nonsense I heard from a table.
