Section 75 Land Requisition

Zhang Yikun said: "New Guangzhou is still a little far away, I think the first step is to build a Guangzhou Industrial Park." The location is located at a distance from outside the city. The first phase of the project is, of course, a building materials factory - first to make a match for the big shijie and the purple brand. Later, we will get some light industrial enterprises. I remember that the Ministry of Light Industry also mentioned the need to make full use of Guangdong's abundant agricultural products. Aren't food processing plants and textile factories a good fit for the project? ”

These businesses have recently been used to supply products to the big shijie and wholesale businesses. In the long run, the industrial production of factories will be devastating to the handicraft industry in Guangdong. This devastating productivity will eventually have a huge impact on the entire economy and society of Guangdong, thus ultimately contributing to the disintegration of traditional society.

Flood Yin said: "As for the location, I suggest that it be not far from Dashijie. So that in the event of an armed conflict, they can support each other. And it must be built on the side of the Pearl River, and a water transport terminal will be built to facilitate the shipping of raw materials and finished products. ”

As for the specific construction site, from a planning point of view, of course, it should be built downwind of the big shijie, so as not to affect the big shijie with thick smoke and wastewater. The distance between the two is 3~4 kilometers. Among them, it is connected by more haode roads, and in the long term, small railways can be built to connect.

Subsequently, we discussed a series of details such as water supply and drainage scheme, lighting and refrigeration, and formed a general plan.

"Let's sort it out, and we'll send someone back to Lingao to report for approval, right?" Zhang Yikun said excitedly.

"I want to give it to Guo Yi first." Merlin reminded, "He's the person in charge of the Guangzhou station. ”

"Oh, oh, yes. I almost forgot. Zhang Yikun shook his head, "This belongs to overstepping." I haven't been at work for many years, and I've been eating by myself, and I'm not sensitive to this kind of thing. ”

The plan was quickly approved by Guo Yi. Subsequently, it was approved by the Planning Institute. Zhang Yikun personally went back to Lingao to "send approval" -- it stands to reason that he only needed to hand over the proposal to the traffic officers who regularly traveled between Lingao and Guangzhou. But under Guo Yi's hint, he still went back to Lingao in person.

Although it has been approved by the Senate and the Executive Committee, according to Guo Yi's experience, if the person in charge of this kind of project does not implement it personally, the specific implementation will be delayed intentionally or unintentionally -- the task of the production department is very tight, and all demand units are keeping an eye on it. If Guangzhou Dashijie wants to start work as soon as possible, Zhang Yikun has to go to the "running department" in person.

Under Zhang Yikun's efforts, the projects were finally implemented one by one. Wu De agreed with his suggestion to start a few factories first and do the groundwork - from his point of view, this would reduce the pressure on the existing materials in Lingao, and secondly, it would be tantamount to delaying the construction of the entire Dashijie.

From land acquisition, start of construction to formal production, it will take at least half a year to form a stable production capacity. The construction of the Great Shijie in Guangzhou was officially started, and the pressure on the demand for materials generated by it would be delayed until the second half of 1631.

The whole jihua is, starting from March, the first land acquisition and three links and one level work. All the construction workers were recruited on the spot, except for the core Lingao construction engineering team. At the end of the project, these people can be converted into factory workers on the spot. The machinery and equipment required by the enterprise are also arranged by the Planning Institute for production outside Jihua. The first batch of building materials was purchased from Guangdong, and special building materials were shipped from Lingao, and the specific allocation was responsible for the planning institute. The Planning Institute will also hold a coordination meeting to dispatch veteran Jishu personnel from brick and tile factories, wood processing factories and wood factories to Guangzhou for equipment installation and jishu guidance, and some indigenous workers will also be selected as the backbone of the new enterprise to produce liliang.

Cheng Dong also allocated the funds and foreign exchange quotas for the Dashijie project, but of course these allocations were far from enough. It can only be regarded as a start-up capital.

Guangzhou's Dashijie project was reported to Li Fengjie through Li Xijue's channel. Li Xijue told Guo Yi's Jihua to the original. Li Fengjie was reading a book when he heard the news, and he didn't say a word after listening to his report, and he didn't even move his eyebrows. Li Xijue knew that these bigwigs all paid attention to "the strictness of the city", and cultivated the kung fu of pretentiousness. So he stood respectfully and did not speak.

After turning three or four pages, the governor finally spoke:

"What do you think about this?"

"Of course, it's best not to allow him to ......" Although Li Xijue was forced by Guo Yi to accept this project on the day of the meeting, he felt that there could be no ambiguity in this matter. He vaguely felt that there was a deep conspiracy of Australians hidden behind the matter of Guangzhou Dajie, and I am afraid that it was not as simple as simply building a big store such as "Ziming Building". It's not good to make trouble, but I want to build a Guangzhou Ao outside the city of Guangzhou. He quickly added:

"This is the Australian's 'borrowing land to expose water-stained goods', a lesson from the past, please Dong Weng Mingjian."

Li Fengjie was silent, Li Xijue knew what he was thinking, Guangdong officialdom, up and down were afraid of thieves. Last year, the thieves and thieves were around Guangzhou, occupied Humen, shelled Guangzhou, made the counties into a fuss, killed many gentry, and plundered a large amount of property, which has alarmed the imperial court. Even He Rubin's fiasco in Qiongzhou has not been said by the imperial court until now, and according to the letters written by Li Fengjie's master in Beijing, his peers, friends, and others, there is a great possibility that this matter will be mixed up -- although the official army has lost troops and generals, and there are "lost divisions," after all, they have not "lost ground," and they always seem to be much stronger in the imperial court than in other provinces that are troublesome. However, the responsibility must always be pursued: He Zhen is afraid that he will become a "waste general".

There are a bunch of bad things in Qiongzhou ahead, and the attack on the area around Guangzhou by the Australians is also depicted as "Haikou taking advantage of the victory to attack Kouluo". Anyway, this kind of thing happened in the past -- in those days, hundreds of Japanese pirates crisscrossed the south and went all the way to the city of Nanjing. The court didn't feel that the sky was about to fall.

He Rubin's future, Li Fengjie doesn't care. How to maintain the stability of Guangdong, especially the surrounding areas of Guangzhou, is what he is most concerned about. Last time, it was settled by secretly getting the "land cutting compensation", and this time if they offend the thieves for this kind of thing, they will have to make some new tricks if they can't keep it. He won't be able to deal with the court.

But he wouldn't say this to Li Xijue. After a while, he made an indifferent expression:

"What else do you want me to do with this little thing? Let them go to Yu Taishou. ”

Yu Taishou is Yu Baocun, the prefect of Guangzhou. Li Fengjie made up his mind, whether it was land acquisition or what shijie to build, anyway, it was a local matter in Guangzhou, and it should have been kept in custody.

So the matter came to Yu Baocun. Of course, Li Xijue couldn't run away. Not only did he have to go to the Yu Governor's Mansion to teach him face-to-face, but he also had to try his best to correctly understand the leader's intentions: it was obvious that the governor was not prepared to deal with the thieves in this matter.

"The plot is here and here." Lu Yizhong, who was ordered to come to talk to Yu Baocun about the details, expressed a complete disregard for Yu Governor's surprise. He took out the map he had brought with him: a condensed map of Guangzhou and its suburbs. The topography and settlements outside Guangzhou have all been specifically marked.

Yu Baocun had already been informed by Li Fengjie, and secretly scolded the governor in his heart for stuffing the hot potato into his hands again, but this was originally his own business, and there was no reason to shirk - besides, he had to count on Governor Li not to take eye medicine on the matter of Gao Xun's "escape". For this matter, he has already honored the governor's favorite concubine with a number of valuable Australian goods.

He paid attention to the place where Lu Yizhong pointed out. Both of these are just outside the Great East Gate, and they're right by the river. Yu Baocun has never seen a modern map, but at least he has seen a map. He took a closer look, and the two plots of land claimed by the Australians were across the river, and they were staggered several miles away.

Yu Baocun was born as a magistrate, and although he couldn't read the scale, he could roughly estimate the area of land that Australians wanted according to the surrounding terrain, and it was estimated that there were 1,000 acres of land in total. Most of them are still official land, so it is not very troublesome to do. Yu Baocun breathed a sigh of relief.

"What proprietor Guo means is: he is willing to pay for these plots, but he wants to ask Taishou Duoduo to cooperate with them." Lu Yizhong said.

"Well said, well said." Yu Baocun nodded again and again, secretly scolding Lu Yizhong for being really shameless, and suddenly went to the thief again. But this person was not offended in the past, and now he is even more offended. had to promise again and again with a smile on his face.

A few people got together to discuss how to make this thing straightforward and successful. Of course, the purchase of land by Australians cannot be said publicly, and there must be a name. Yu Baocun thought about it and suggested that it be used in the name of building a commercial port. The reason is that Guangdong suffered from military disasters in the previous stage, and in recent years, natural disasters have been frequent, the people have been displaced, and the imperial court has repeatedly raised large soldiers, and financial resources are tight. Now there is only a wide range of financial resources. In order to repay the imperial court, it was decided to set aside a commercial port on the bank of the Pearl River to attract investment, construction, business and trading.

The reason is clear, and it is not very difficult to implement. Yu Baocun took care of the county orders of Panyu and Nanhai counties and sent the master to discuss together. After a few people met and discussed, they decided to allocate as much official land as possible to sell, so as not to cause disputes and disputes in the purchase of land -- everyone knew that this land was actually bought by Australians, so it was better to be careful.

With the assistance of local officials, the land purchase is progressing smoothly. Guo Yi knows very well that in Daming, even if you have foreign guns and cannons, improper lubrication will make things progress very slowly. After all, he can't just drag people out and shoot them. Therefore, through Lu Yizhong, he hinted to key local officials that the Guangzhou Dashijie project would be offered to the outside world. If they wish, they can enjoy the right to buy and obtain a "subscription letter" in advance.
