Chapter 80: The Soaring South Seas
The Nanyang Army Academy is built next to a large blue lake, and the settlement of the reclamation company, the ironworks and the ash factory has brought a lot of popularity, and the development of this small town named the Blue Lake is no less than that of Phoenix, a large amount of land has been leveled out, and the land of the reclamation company has been covered with lush various crops, and the effect of planting in patches looks so pleasing to the eye.
Chen Xuan originally wanted to leave Xu Ruohan in Phoenix, because in his imagination, the Blue Lake Town is still a big construction site, full of smoke and dust, and there is nothing to see, but Xu Ruohan insisted on coming with Chen Xuan, and Chen Xuan was so entangled that he had no choice but to let him.
I didn't want to come to Blue Lake Town along the wide avenue, but everything was different from what Chen Xuan imagined, the establishment of Blue Lake Town was mainly based on Sun Zhiheng, under the auspices of Sun Zhiheng, large tracts of rice, rape, rubber and other crops along the way had already been planted, Chen Xuan couldn't help but be surprised.
"Ah Heng, didn't all the Chinese from China go to support the construction of Phoenix City, where did you get the manpower to open up such a large-scale land and not even delay planting?"
"It's not just Chinese who can work!"
Sun Zhiheng said with a little weakness.
"And where did you get the manpower?"
"That's a lot, isn't the Army Academy not open yet, thousands of students plus some students' families, our manpower is more than 10,000, it is difficult to support them every day to eat and not work, except for the basic training in the morning, these students are required to work, and many of their family members have also joined the reclamation company."
"That's not enough, you have to reclaim the land and plant, build housing, and build factories, etc., which doesn't need manpower?"
Jiang Fangzhen on the side smiled.
"Ah Heng's methods are not only these, I was also taken aback when I first came, compared to Phoenix, the Blue Lake is simply a mixture of Chinese and natives, and there are even more natives than Chinese."
"Huh? Where did so many natives come from, didn't they say that they were forcibly relocated by the local **, and how to ensure the safety of our Zhenhua? You're just fooling around! ”
Chen Xuan couldn't help but scold, this is another foundation of Zhenhua, how can there be so many natives casually, if the natives make trouble, then it will be okay!
"Yiyang, you underestimate Ah Heng, no, it should be that we all underestimate him, after Ah Heng arrived at the Blue Lake, he brought five or six hundred people, it is impossible to build this road alone, how can it be possible to build a huge reclamation base, so Ah Heng brought gifts to visit the local chieftain, gave some strange things, and thousands of natives were coming, so the construction work began."
"It's not enough, doesn't it mean that these natives are lazy and can't do anything?"
"How can there be a person who can't do a job, if he can't do it well, he will be whipped with a big stick, if it doesn't work once, twice, twice, if it doesn't work, three times, anyway, I paid for it, and those chiefs won't care."
Sun Zhiheng said nonchalantly, Chen Xuan was a little dumbfounded, isn't this a copy of slavery!
"Isn't that only about a thousand people, and it's far from the scale you have now?"
"Hahaha。。。。。。"
Jiang Fangzhen laughed.
With the propaganda of these natives on the construction site, those poor and crazy natives are not crazy, so the moths rushed over like a fire, and were scattered and arrested by Aheng, these captives did not have the same luck as the hired ones, they were shackled and handed over to the natives hired in front of them, and the ranking of the natives who managed them according to the results of their daily work was awarded, and these natives who had just been promoted to managers were not red-eyed, Desperately forced the captured natives to work, and these natives were much more ruthless in dealing with the captives than the members of the convoy. ”
"Didn't anyone resist then?"
"Yes, how could it not be, if someone resists, they will be killed, brother, don't worry, it wasn't us who did it, it was all done by those black-skinned monkeys who managed the captives, killing and killing, and these natives will be honest."
"Ah Heng is not only doing this, he requires the management personnel to know Chinese, and the natives who learn Chinese will arrange a house for them, and they can take their families to live in Blue Lake Town, and promise to live in Blue Lake Town for three years, after passing the assessment, they will be given the household registration of Blue Lake Town, and the house will be given to them for free, and then there will be a house and a family bond, and these people's income is not low, but it is much stronger than the previous long work in the chief's house, and even the difference between heaven and earth, so there are more and more local people who moths to the fire."
"Even some chiefs also moved their minds, after Ah Heng reported to the local government, they were not able to manage it, so they gave power to the guards, and the guards swept away more than a dozen local big families with a thunderous momentum, and these big families were honest, under the offensive of money, the local government also allocated these lands to Zhenhua, but the rent went into the pockets of these officials."
"However, if it is not my clan, its heart will be different!"
Chen Xuan was still a little worried.
"Yiyang, you don't know this, before I came to Nanyang, I deliberately transferred the information of Nanyang, in fact, we China from the end of the Qin Dynasty people began to run to Nanyang, thousands of years, fleeing the famine to escape the war to Nanyang I don't know how many, these people to the local area, and the local aborigines, forming a new language and way of life, don't look at these natives look so dark, that's because Nanyang is too hot, and they are poor and can't afford to wear clothes, so they tanned, not like Africa is a race, According to my observations during the time I arrived, it is not impossible to fuse them! ”
Chen Xuan's brain is a little insufficient, could it be that these damn black-skinned monkeys are still the same ancestor as himself!? This made Chen Xuan unable to accept it, as for the fusion, it is easy to say, I don't know how big the project is, which year and which generation can see the effect, Chen Xuan needs to weigh it carefully.
"And later, the continuous import of Chinese in the country has also improved the proportion of the population here, although the gap is still there, but it is not as big as it was at the beginning, Ah Heng organized the Chinese from the country for military training, requiring everyone to master certain combat skills, and issued guns, not to mention that we have mastered the political power and military power, economy and culture, etc., if we still let the natives turn the tables, then we should die, and we can't complain about others!"
Chen Xuan has seen the tragedy of Indonesian Chinese on the Internet, if you want to find out the countries that Chen Xuan hates the most, it must be Japan and Java, but these things have not happened yet, and they can't convince others, so although he is still very uncomfortable in his heart, he is also happy to see Sun Zhiheng's growth.
"And how many people are there in the Blue Lagoon today?"
"There are 36,400 Chinese and more than 50,000 natives, a total of nearly 90,000."
Sun Zhiheng said.
"Ahh Isn't that more than Phoenix County? Is this so possible? ”
"It's impossible, because the farms in the Blue Lake are all over the place, and the people are scattered, so the scale of residence does not seem to be as good as Phoenix, if you take back all the people, it is several times that of Phoenix, and the Blue Lake is not open to the public, many people don't know that the Blue Lake has developed into this, every month the headquarters also sends three thousand two thousand people, scattered Chinese from China or Nanyang come to defect, by the end of the year more than 150,000 people should be no problem, in that case, the proportion of Chinese will exceed the natives, so, Brother, you don't have to worry. ”
"Ah Heng has really grown up, if Uncle Sun knows, maybe how happy he will be!"
Chen Xuan touched Sun Zhiheng's head with relief and said, an eighteen-year-old young man can do this, Chen Xuan can't be more demanding, Sun Zhiheng smiled embarrassedly.
Sun Zhiheng stipulated that people living in Blue Lake must wear fancy clothes, and no other strange costumes are allowed, so at first glance, although those natives have darker skin, they can't see much difference from the Chinese, of course, there are still some people who don't look like Chinese at a glance.
The land here is vast and sparsely populated, so Zhenhua's development here did not consider too much land price issues, the construction of factory towns accounted for a large scale, and there was a huge calm and mirror-blue lake next to the town, so the Blue Lake Town was named.
Chen Xuan and others parked the car in a small high ground not far from Blue Lake Town, and the group walked down, where they can overlook the Blue Lake and the town, which belongs to the tropics, so there are a lot of strange tropical fruits, Sun Zhiheng has lived here for a long time, and knows that those can be eaten and those that cannot be eaten, so he ran to pick a lot and gave them to Xu Ruohan and Xia Yunru, which caused the two beauties to laugh constantly, and they both joked that they wanted to find a good daughter-in-law for Sun Zhiheng, and Sun Zhiheng had to flee.
"Senior brother, I never thought that we would be able to create such a big business, watching the city we built on this wasteland expand day by day, improve day by day, you don't know how satisfied I am, even if I die now, I will die without regrets."
Ye Zhongyu pointed to the foundation in front of him and said with emotion.
"Senior brother, what are you talking nonsense, we have just started the first step of the Long March, and I don't know how many things are still waiting for us to do, what are you talking about dead or alive now, we can't do without you in our future career!"
"I just say this, sometimes I think, if the future of domestic construction is designed by us, how good it would be, you look at these people, they used to be unable to eat in the country, but when they came here, they lived in a sturdy house, put on beautiful clothes, and did not worry about eating a meal or not, although it was still very hard, but compared to the country, it was already heaven and earth, seeing their faces full of satisfied smiles, I felt uncomfortable, how lovely and excellent our compatriots were!"
Ye Zhongyu said a little emotionally, and others seemed to think of China, and no one spoke for a while.
