Chapter six hundred and seventy-eight five shipyards (six)

"Hehe! This is even simpler. Send troops out and train troops to be good people!"

In Pan Shicheng's eyes, the smile of Ai Wang's son-in-law was a little sarcastic. Send soldiers? In the current situation of the Qing Dynasty, how many soldiers can Ai Wang send out? If there are fewer people, it is not helpful. If there are more people, what should the Qing Dynasty do?

"Xingdou, I'm afraid this matter won't be done? Even if you send troops, how many can you send? Don't forget that there is a court in China, an English overseas, and an Eros in the north!"

None of the three major disasters are easy to deal with. The court is now weak. If it does not take advantage of the situation, it will be difficult to take it again when the court recovers its vitality. England is now showing its minions, and if you are not careful in the coastal area, it will be in full force. In the information given by the son-in-law, Eros in the north was severely damaged in the Crimean War. Now it is the time to hunt. The Qing Dynasty is afraid that it will make the fat in Eros' eyes.

Send troops out, the country is empty. Whether it is the court, England or Eros, they are all enemies of the Yang family!

"There are 300,000 soldiers, hundreds of thousands of families, and more than one million people, right?"

Yang Meng's answer was still light, and the old Taishan Pan Shicheng's forehead wrinkled again.

“Where did you come from?”

"People from Wuzhuang!"

"There are so many people in Wuzhuang?"

"Well! The Wuzhuang staff in Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Tibet provinces are at least one million, and the annual expenditure is several million. This is what I just thought of. If Lao Taishan hadn't asked about it, I would have forgotten this!

The Wuzhuang personnel in Yunnan are several times that of the new army. Most of the personnel have slightly worse physical and combat qualities than the new army. However, the group combat. These people in Wuzhuang are not much worse than those in the new army.

The salary these people received was far worse than the new army, and their income from labor was a little more powerful than that of ordinary people. If they went out, they would be given more than the salary of the new army. Thirty or five hundred thousand people in the four provinces should be gathered.

Taking this opportunity, we can eliminate a group of old and weak Wuzhuang personnel and leave this group of people. The Yang family can save at least two or three million yuan a year. After making these wages, more than half of the Wuzhuang personnel will choose to go out to make a living. In this way, whether it is food or money, we will be much richer here.

After this group of people arrived in the local area, they would protect our mines and forests, and they would also help the local people. In ten years, this group of Wuzhuang personnel should be able to integrate into the local area and feed our population with the Great Bay Shipyard. At the same time, they could also affect the layout of America and Australia. Why not do it?"

The conversation with Lao Taishan was also a feast for Yang Meng to explore ideas. At first, he wanted to send ten thousand Yazi to cooperate with tens of thousands of new troops. Unexpectedly, if a interruption of his thoughts made him come up with a wonderful idea.

"Star Dou! Your ideas are good, and wonderful, but officials and merchants from Europe and the United States are not fools! If you send so many people out, how can they not be afraid?

Although merchants are profit-seeking, sometimes they have a position. As for me, I don’t want to see the decadent Qing Dynasty. The decadent Qing Dynasty is decadent, so we don’t have the confidence to do business. We do business with foreigners. Although we have been having a good time over the years, there are countless places where we suffer!

The power of merchants has reached a certain level, which can influence a country's national policy. However, when it involves the most fundamental things, the interests are sometimes not easy to use."

The layout of the son-in-law is to treat officials and merchants from Europe and the United States as real fools. This matter is a thing that can be broken at once. Once the mines everywhere make too much profit, it means that the conflicts and conflicts are intensified.

The Greater Bay Shipyard has gathered so many large businesses that are enough to influence European and American policies. After the conflict intensifies, it means a war in the sky. These things are right in front of you!

"Hmph... Nowadays, European and American officials or businesses do not have such eyesight!

We will send these people out. In the early stage, we will have to be a laborer, hundreds of thousands of people distributed to all parts of the country, without any visible mountains or leaks!

These people are almost the same as the military households of the Ming Dynasty Zhu Yuanzhang. Our people can have children and raise them. Which of the Wuzhuang people in Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Tibet is not a member of seven or eight, and the most are even a member of twenty or thirty. The initially distributed to various places was only a few thousand or tens of thousands. What will happen ten years later?

In terms of population, which country in the world can compare to the Qing Dynasty? Our personnel output is continuous. In less than ten years, these people will become a climate in three to five years. At that time, we will hire a group of local people. Even if the naval war is unfavorable, we still have the advantage of the number of people in land warfare.

The great powers of Europe and the United States owed blood debts in these places in the early stages. As long as we show goodwill appropriately, we can win over a group of people. The demand for coal and iron in Europe and the United States is rigid, as long as we lay a solid foundation in the early stages.

If they want to make a comeback, they have to take the exam for their strength. America and Australia are far away from their homeland, supporting tens of thousands of people or even hundreds of thousands of people. The logistics pressure is too great. I also believe in the combat effectiveness of Wuzhuang personnel. Even if there are several failures, how much impact will it have on us?

Losing a part of the combat population is not a big deal for us, but the merchants in these countries have lost their shares in the Greater Bay Shipyard, but they have the capital warehouse.”

Yang Meng is not worried about the issue that Lao Taishan is worried about. The argument of globalization is subject to productivity and does not need to be watched on site. Yang Meng also knows that the application of machinery in various mining sites in the Americas and Australia is absolutely unfavorable, and this is precisely one of the advantages of the Great Bay Shipyard.

If the world's largest shipyard cannot build large seacraft with thousands of tons, it would be a joke; the size of the Greater Bay Shipyard in the Americas and Australia will also attract foreign merchants who have not invested in the shipyard. At that time, the market for importing minerals and exporting machinery will be extremely huge.

When the great powers reminisce, the foundation of the Great Bay has become. Then, the great powers will have to ask if Yang Meng, who occupies the dominance of the Great Bay shipyard, agrees!

"With that being said, the risks are still quite large!"

"Haha... Old Taishan, you are old and angry. You have always been in danger of seeking wealth and honor. This is what my ancestors passed down."

"Oh... I'm not afraid of a tiger when I was born! It seems that I'm really old!"

Looking at the ambitious son-in-law, Pan Shicheng felt extremely glad for this semi-forced marriage. Fortunately, he did not meet his son-in-law at the beginning, otherwise the Pan family would have become annihilated?

"It's time to do the job, Lao Taishan, you have to show the arrogance of a governor of a province, otherwise how could these calves be careless?"

The sea boat paused a few times. Yang Meng knew that he had arrived at the place and had just begun!

The one who got off the boat, got ashore, and waited for Yang Meng at the Great Bay Wharf was nothing but the Governor Baoling and the Minister Bashali.

"Oh... You two come uninvited, but it's not polite! I've already said that before. Are you deaf and didn't hear it? Or are you in poor minds and can't remember it?"

After sweeping the river, there was no English warship. There was only one small ship. It seemed that these two people had done a lot of work to show their sincerity.

English: The business investigation team has also sent news from Hong Kong Island these days. The problem lies in English's cabinet. In order to seek re-election, Bamaitun, the strong external team, had to make concessions on some matters.

During the previous term, England not only launched the Crimean War, but also the war in India. After a long period of military war, there must be opposition from the country.

Decades ago, when the British army initially launched the degree and attacked Myanmar, they paid huge military expenditures and considerable casualties. Now India has lost but has not been able to obtain it. Although the British army is progressing smoothly in India, at this time, it took the initiative to go to war with the Qing Dynasty, the largest country in Asia, and the Bamazun cabinet did not dare to.

Bamaizun dared not take the initiative to provoke the war, but it does not mean that they gave up their interests in China. The Qing Dynasty is a huge market. It is very beneficial for Bamaizun's re-election. After all, it was Bamaizun's cabinet that dominated the Crimean War and won the victory. When they started a war with the Qing Dynasty, Bamaizun's re-election became inevitable.

Baoling's attitude was firm in the early stage, which was also due to an accurate interpretation of this policy. However, the English merchants put too much pressure on him. The big merchants who could do business in the Qing Dynasty were also terrifying in the country. They dominated the Bamaitun cabinet, and the backstage of these people was not impossible.

Regarding the Dawan Shipyard, Baoling can confirm that this newly appointed Minister of the South China Sea of ​​Qing Dynasty was an excellent politician even in Europe and the United States, and he was definitely an extremely difficult enemy to defeat.

In terms of military strength and national strength, the Qing Dynasty and the British Empire were quite different, but Yang Butang used commercial means to balance this gap. If he served as Minister of Southeast Asia for a long time, it would be a disaster for England.

Facing Yang Butang, who was arrogant and arrogant, although Bao Ling was angry, he was forcibly suppressed by him. This was just an appearance. Once the British merchants invested in the Great Bay Shipyard, they were rejected because of his Hong Kong Governor, and he was not the one who was unlucky. If the Chinese Prime Minister was not good, they would fall down. Since such a disaster was foreseen, Bao Ling did not want him to happen.

Giving Baxiali a wink, the Hong Kong governor gave Yang Meng an extremely reluctant smile and an extremely awkward bow.

"Yangbutang, we are here to apologize this time. When we met that day, I drank too much and spoke a little unrestrainedly. Please forgive me for the Lord of thebutang."

In front of many European and American businessmen and Qing officials, they bowed and apologized to Yang Meng, and these two were also full of strength.

"You two, one is China Master and the other is Cantonese. The questions in China are profound and profound. Don't just learn to speak humans and not do human affairs. Sometimes, it is still necessary to learn how to be a human being with us.

Interests are preferred. Given the enthusiastic attitude of the British businessmen, I will not care about you about your affairs more generously, but this cannot change. Let’s take a look at my bad impression of you together!”

Yang Meng's high posture almost tilted the two of them, but this is the negotiation field. No matter how powerful the people insult the power, it is not too much to insult the power, and the people have to bow their heads under the short eaves!

After dozens of main figures gathered at the dock, they boarded an open barge and walked half a circle along the Great Bay Island along the river bank. People, including ministers from various countries, believed Yang Meng's previous statement that he spent tens of millions of taels.

The prototype of the dock being excavated was not the one hundred that Yang Meng originally mentioned. Some people intently counted carefully. There were more than 200 deep pits dug along the river bank, and more than 200 were excavated. These were large docks. After completion, in these docks, there were naturally a accompanying professional staff explaining to foreign merchants and ministers.

There is also a small island called Shazai near Dawan Island. Yang Meng also prepared a big show here. Dozens of large and dark ships on the outside were slowly sunk into the river when the barge arrived. In less than an hour, the prototype of a dam appeared in everyone's eyes.

The shipwreck cuts the river at a very fast speed. As long as there are enough ships and the earth and rocks are installed, the dam of the river can be about a few days. In nearly ten days, it is easy for Ding Taichen to collect hundreds or thousands of civilian ships in Guangzhou's water and land pier.

Yang Meng did not explain the role of the river dam. After watching this drama, the barge, under the command of Yang Meng, sailed to the other side of Dawan Island. The dam here has been formed. One side of the tributary that is nearly ten miles into the sea has been blocked by the dam. The tributaries of the east and west Pearl Rivers were cut off, and the prototype of the entire Dawan Shipyard has also appeared. (To be continued...)
