"Brother, I was very happy to see it in the document saying you were coming. But it has been more than a year since I waited for more than a year, which was somewhat unexpected, and it also made me miss it." In the prosperous Jiaozhou Port, Liu Jianguo, the captain of the Denglai Development Team and the commander of the Far East Security Security of the Far East, was pulling Liu Houfei's arm who had just arrived by boat and said with a smile.

This "meeting meeting" between Er Liu was arranged in a luxuriously decorated hotel next to the railway station. The owners and investors of the hotel are from the local state-owned Oriental Hotel Group. They saw the potential of Denglai's future development and the unique location advantages of Jiaozhou Port. Therefore, they invested in the construction of this six-story hotel. It is worth mentioning that this building called Jiaozhou Hotel is the tallest building inside and outside the entire Jiaozhou city (except for the facilities of the lighthouse). It was designed by Sun Dapeng, a famous architectural designer on the east coast. It is a landmark building in Jiaozhou. It is very famous, allowing Denglai and even many people from abroad to feel the powerful power of industrialized East Coast.

Liu Houfei was a commissioner of the Beining Regional Administration. He has been deeply engaged in Brazil for many years and has rich political experience. This time, he came to the Far East from his hometown to replace Ma Qiang, the former captain of the Southern Development Team, and served as the richest chief of the Sanfan tribes and the affairs of the southern area. Before going to Yin County to take office, he and the cadres of the Executive Committee's Personnel Department had to go to Liu Jianguo, the highest military chief of the Sanfan tribes, to talk to him about the next stage of work plan.

Joining Liu Jianguo, Liao Degong, the commander of the Liaodong Security Bureau. This lord has been officially announced that he will take over Liu Jianguo's position. He serves as the commander of the Far East Security Commander as an active military officer. The captain of the Denlei Development Team, and has become the most powerful person in the Three Feudatories of the Far East. This makes Liu Houfei and others, who were originally a little imagining about the throne of Denlei, feel very regretful. It seems that the local people still believe that the situation in the north is not as stable as the south, and they are more willing to be the warrior to hold this crucial position.

Liu Jianguo was quite excited because of his many years of work in the local and Far East. He had a very good reputation in the founding party committee. He had already been confirmed to be the next executive committee member, and the ranking would be very high. Even the throne of the chairman was closer, and he felt like the first person in the generation. Therefore, Liu Liu really felt a sense of enthusiasm now, and he spoke very imposingly, which made Liu Houfei feel deeply moved: It was really slower and slower. When Liu Jianguo was working hard in the southern Chile area, he also started working in Beining, but because he was slower, several good "carrot pits" were occupied by others in advance, which caused a different situation like today.

But he is not too late now! He hasn't rushed to the first echelon, and the tickets for the second echelon are finally in his hands! Starting this year, he can serve as the captain of the crucial Southern Development Team and start his own gilding resume. In a few years, can't he return to the local area and win the supreme throne with this?

"The storm is dangerous, the distance is far away, there is no way." Liu Houfei shook his head, with a look of lingering fear. This time he came to Far East to take the post. In order to hurry, he did not take the Indian Ocean route, which was already very mature and had many supply points, but chose to take the fleet of Sun Chunyang's South Cargo Store and arrive in the country via the Pacific route. Because the supply ports along the way are sparse, the distance between each other and the large sea waves (most of them are sailing in the deep sea), Liu Houfei suffered a serious crime along the way, and his bile was almost vomited out.

And that's not all. They left Jinhua Port on Tahiti Island and headed to Rabaul, but were blown off the route due to bad weather. One of the four ships unfortunately sank, and the other was severely damaged. They had to abandon the ship after transferring personnel and supplies. Then it took a lot of effort to arrive at Rabaul Port for rest.

It was also this voyage that fully made Liu Houfei realize why he called sailing a "brave game" in this era. It was indeed too difficult and too dangerous. It was also at this time that Liu Houfei deeply understood how naive and ridiculous the suggestion that someone proposed to give up South America and transfer to the Far East was so naive: You let the big men who have settled down and have families and businesses take risks, put their heads on their belts and travel across the ocean to the mainland? Are you murdering? And it's almost a joke! No wonder the few people who proposed at the time, themselves and descendants, are not very popular in the parliament, and they are a soy sauce group. They are really too low in EQ, which has caused public anger.

"I have learned this trip why most nobles or merchants in my country and the continental countries are not willing to sail. It is too dangerous and almost died." Liu Houfei said with a wry smile. He was really worried, worried about the history of the East Coast, which is more than ten political stars that rose like comets and fell in shipwrecks like meteors. This actually explains why the East Coast locals are particularly generous to officials with overseas resumes, because they have taken great risks to be able to go out to sea to become officials, let alone deal with various very complex situations. This ability, courage and luck are naturally not ordinary, and of course it is worth cultivating.

"Okay, since you are here, I won't say much polite words. Given that Captain Ma Qiangma of Ningbo has resigned and has no leader, you should take office as soon as possible. Although we have already negotiated peace with the Qing Dynasty, there are still many other matters. If you don't go, there are many acting captains who will not be able to make a complete decision." Liu Jianguo led Liu Houfei to a coffee table and sat down, and then said: "Xiao Liao, you have been appointed as the captain of the Denglai Development Team and took over my shift. This is very good and it is also your opportunity. You are a little younger than you, and your career will definitely be more outstanding in the future, so you must cherish this opportunity. You have worked in Liaodong and Denglai, so you should be very clear about the situation here. Therefore, I won't say more about the specifics, and you can do it yourself."

"Haha, to be honest, I was also surprised this time. After all, there are many people with my seniority, and it is not my turn to be the security commander. Perhaps the reason is as Brother Liu, you said, the local people need a soldier who is familiar with the actual situation of Denglai to take charge of the overall situation. In the past two years, the number of immigrants transported back to the local area has been declining every year, and it is gradually becoming unsustainable. The local people must be dissatisfied. I am also lucky and am just in the moment, otherwise I will not have a chance." Liao Degong's speech was straightforward and had been rude.

He was promoted to the rank of school and was full of excitement, so he was full of energy to do something big, so he said: "I will consider the problem from a global perspective in the future. Liaodong and Denglai will not be neglected, and support for Heishui will not be cut off. Of course, I will not neglect the most important immigration issue, but the local area should also be mentally prepared. Now the situation in the mainland is becoming more and more stable, and it will only become more and more difficult to get involved in the future. The immigration scale that was maintained at 50,000 or 60,000 for a long time was unrealistic."

Liao Degong's words are not false. Now the large-scale war between Qingshun has subsided, and the East Bank and the Qing court have basically negotiated peace. The brothers of Guangdong Li have also disappeared under the threat and interference of the East Bank people. The only place where small-scale wars are still under the urgency of the Li Shun regime is probably the battle to clean up the chieftains in full swing? But they were originally going to clean up the place with the idea of ​​changing the land and returning to the current. How could they give you valuable human resources to the East Bank people? This kind of thing is not only unreasonable, but also concerns the face of the Dashun regime. It might have been possible more than ten years ago, but now it is impossible.

Therefore, it is really difficult for people on the east coast to get a sufficient immigrant population. The reserve population has been swept away. The sacred people near the coast of Guangdong, Fujian and Hainan are no longer able to recruit, and the Qing army captives have been sent away in batches. The population obtained by the "recruitment" immigrants in the Qing army and the Lu King Ruling Area is also very limited. Now it is also relied on the annual population growth in Ningshao area to fill the gap (the Denglai area has not yet reached the level of large populations and small land). But the problem is that although the Ningshao area has few land and many people have many people).

, but there are many people watching! Who is not staring at these people in Manchuria, Northeast China and even Essential Island? The young people in Ningbo who are unsuspecting are more willing to live in a place not so far away from home, right? What? Go to the east coast thousands of miles away? Where is that? Will people die on the road? I'd better not go! If I really go, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to go back to my hometown in my life. If I make some money, I might have a chance to go back to my hometown in Ningbo in my life.

"The local demand must be put first, there is no doubt about it." Liu Houfei, who is about to go to Ningbo, immediately said: "Although the local assessment of immigrant population has been reduced a lot, this is still an important criterion for measuring the work of the Three Feudatories of the Far East. I remember that the population sent to the local area last year was 30,000, which is too small. At least 45,000 people should be mentioned. Ningbo's new population will be exported to the local area in the future? These people are all new generations born in Ningbo. The social atmosphere is different from the traditional country's country's regions. It should be better to send them to the local area. The Immigration Ministry and the people who are developing the country's general residence are more acceptable."

"Let's get mixed up. The new generation born in Ningbo is very important for assimilating people in other regions. It can be said to be a valuable resource." Liu Jianguo pondered for a while and said, "Of course, this is just a suggestion. What should I do? Brother Liu, you and Xiao Liao will discuss it in the future. Denglai and Ning Shao are the two major fulcrums for our country's foothold. You should cooperate more."

Speaking of this, Liu Jianguo suddenly thought that Zeng, the special envoy of the Executive Committee's Personnel Department, who had already taken the Okhotsk Sea Squadron ship south, was the destination of the Haizhu Island Commercial Station in Guangdong. After arriving there, he would announce a major event, that is, the Executive Committee had officially decided to re-adjust the administrative divisions of the Far East and turn the Three Far East into the Four Far East. That is, they decided to further split the Black Water Development Team and set up a separate administrative agency in many areas including Sakhalin Island, Kuril Islands, Hokkaido and Kamchatka Peninsula, namely the Black Water Management Committee; the rest of the outside northeast, North Manchuria and other places were renamed the Manchuria and Mongolian Development Team, and were under the jurisdiction of the Manchuria and Mongolian Development Team.

From this series of administrative divisions and names, it can be seen that the local management and clampdown of the Far East is really a step closer. They divided the only places in the Far East with basic industrial production capacity and abundant resources, and adopted the management committee rule model that had been piloted for many years in Rabaul, Tahiti and other places (as determined as the leader of the pioneer team, the management committee model relied on collective decisions by multiple members and dispersed its power). It is obvious how it was intended.

The new Director of the Blackwater Management Committee will be Lan Feixiao. The remaining members of the Management Committee are the general manager of the East Coast Japan Company, the commander of the Okhotsk Sea Squadron of the Navy Third Fleet, the Commissioner of the Sakhalin Regional Administration, the Commissioner of the Hokkaido Regional Administration (newly established), the county magistrate of the Hei Shui Prefecture, and the deputy commander of the Military Police Command (in charge of the Far East). There are seven people in total. When encountering problems, a group vote can be passed.

From the gathering of many figures in the Far East, it can be seen that the local people still regard Blackwater as their "own son". The only two coal mines in the Far East, one mechanical processing plant, one steel plant, one gun assembly plant, one shipyard, one seed cultivation heart, and only mints are all here. In addition, the only comprehensive academic institution in the Far East, the Hei Water Transportation College (Yantai College mainly trains cadres and does not involve technical aspects), the largest fishery production heart, the largest leather production heart, and the largest whaling heart are all here, and the trade with Japan is also monopolized. Local technical assistance is also a big deal. Who believes it is not a real son?

In the same way as Hei Water, the future Manchuria, Denglai and Ning Shao can only be raised by stepmothers. The only industrial production facilities are probably some ship repair workshops, light gun repair workshops, and train repair workshops, and they really cannot be used. In addition, there are only some light industrial enterprises such as food processing, textiles, and tea-making that are invested by government or privately. The production factories with the roaring machines and chimneys are completely different styles, which makes people feel depressed. The Executive Committee’s officials are so harsh to the millions of people of Denglai and Ning Shao!

Liu Jianguo is also going to return to the local people who "entered to the permanent" and understand the local strategies of checks and balances. Although he feels a little sorry for the two colonies with very good economic economies, Denglai and Ningshao, there is nothing he can do about it. Your population and economy are already so developed, and it would be a good idea to give you industrial facilities. Therefore, there must be restrictions on necessary administrative divisions, technology and capital, especially when the local people are no longer particularly eager for immigration, you can really let go of these vassal states in the Far East.

Liu Jianguo understood these things, and Liao Degong, Liu Houfei and others were not fools, so they naturally understood their ways. Especially Liao Degong, who had worked in Denglai and Liaodong for many years, had a deep relationship with this land, so he felt particularly regretful for Denglai. He thought that after he took the initiative in the future, he could only find compensation from other places, that is, try to attract more social capital to invest in industry and commerce, even if he started with light industry, he would consolidate Denglai's industrial foundation bit by bit.

He believes that to accumulate funds from the light industry, and then find ways to spend money to import technology from the local area, and hire personnel even if they are outdated technology and third-rate technicians, it is not necessary to improve the industrial technology level of Denglai step by step. He believes that this is in line with the laws of economic development and the relatively advantage of Denglai, which has a large population. It is not necessarily the order-type and planned production enterprises under the jurisdiction of the Hei Water Management Committee that rely on local assistance are worse.

If what was expected was good, Liu Houfei should have the same idea. In the Ningshao area, Liao was more or less aware of the situation. This vassal state developed by trade with the Dutch East India Company had already passed the primitive accumulation stage of capital. Under the guidance of the government, the merchants who made money kept updating their technology and relying on local resources to establish many tea making factories, silk reeling factories, textile factories and other enterprises. The development was very rapid and the degree of mechanization was quite high.

After half of Shaoxing Prefecture was seized by the East Coast people, these capitals quickly surged over again. Investing in the local area and developing characteristic industries is probably enough for them to struggle for a while. But after they are digested and absorbed by them in the future, they will either expand outward, find new raw material production places and commodity dumping markets, or develop into the production chain and technology chain. This is foreseeable. The local restrictions on Denglai and Ningshao can actually be limited for a while. At most thirty years later, these shackles will be broken. What strategies should the local people adopt?

Denglai now has new troops, locally trained cadres, and large-capped merchants. Can their interests be sacrificed and ignored unscrupulously? Liao Degong has also read many books. He is very clear about how the local elites opposed or even resisted after the British promulgated the "Navigation Regulations" and damaged the interests of North American colonies. The rampant smuggling trade with the French and Dutch began at that time, and the local handicraft industry also originated during that period. It is important to know that the head is determined by the butt. In the face of real interests, no one will tell you any feelings, dedication and sacrifice. Denglai and Ningshao will sooner or later come to this point in a few decades.

"But who can establish a system that will never be easy forever? Is it possible?" Liao Degong sighed secretly in his heart. A wise politician can formulate policies that have been effective for decades. It is very powerful. It is almost 1-2 generations. If it is long, it will be the affairs of future generations. Can he control so much? Denglai has the fortune of Denglai, and Ning Shao has the luck of Ning Shao. It is not his turn to worry about these things. In the future, he will sort out his thoughts and insights and hand them over to the leaders of the country for review and discussion. He is worthy of everyone. What else do you want? Denglai, Ning Shao, and even the mainland of the country are at least incense-like and the east coast. The language, characters and many customs are even more connected. When they develop in the future, will the European countries be stronger? The Pacific Ocean is so big that several countries can still accommodate it!
