Chapter 50: The Greedy Lu County Order
Lu Zhen of Xin'an County has not been idle at all these days, in addition to running back and forth between Guangzhou and Xin'an County, he also pays special attention to the movement of Australians. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Almost every three days, people will report what Australians have done in Xiangshan County.
As soon as he heard this, he knew that Yang Yuzhou had opened a marriage agency, that is, a matchmaker shop, and he couldn't figure out why this Australian man still did this woman's work.
Although some despise Yang Yuzhou, but despise is despised, things still need to be understood, it turns out that the role of this matchmaker shop is to introduce the yellow flower girl of the Ming Dynasty to Australia to marry, marrying an Australian has many benefits, it is said that as long as a family has a girl who marries an Australian, then it can immigrate unconditionally after five or three years.
Although I don't know what this Australia is like, but it is true that these Australias are generous, the silver is like the wind blowing, and drinking tea will tip people for a small two or two silver.
Speaking of this, we have to start with Zhang Jie, this young man doesn't understand the monetary value of the Ming Dynasty, and he doesn't have any buying experience, a tael of silver is so big in his hand, he feels that this is about the same as ten yuan or a hundred yuan in the 21st century.
So I drank a bowl of tea and gave someone a silver tip, just like that, so the entire Xiangshan and Xin'an counties have spread, this Australian has a lot of money, as long as you are born casually, you will give one or two silver.
It is said that rumors kill people, and those gangsters and ruffians know that Australians are rich, so they run to Xiangshan County in droves, hoping that they can meet the old Australians, and maybe they can get dozens of taels of silver for free.
However, this kind of good luck is only limited to some people, and will not appear in a wide range, after knowing the situation, Yang Yuzhou, in order to attract immigrants to Australia, deliberately used a little propaganda means of later generations, expanding the scope of this matter, and targeted to those who are lucky.
After the operation, there are more yellow flower girls who come to the marriage agency to sign up, and there are more young guys, because the marriage agency also has a mission to recruit immigrants.
According to the Industrial Development Plan of the First Executive Committee, the whole of Australia needs at least 5,000 to 10,000 industrial workers to complete the restoration of the first industrial steam era.
This number determines that there will not be many immigrants, so Yang Yuzhou is responsible for registering the yellow flower girl while recruiting immigrant boys.
However, Yang Yuzhou, who has nothing to do, has learned wisely and knows that it is absolutely impossible for a large number of immigrants to Australia, so he first spent money to invite a few Lang Zhong to conduct a physical examination for these applicants.
He didn't want to get a smallpox patient back and bring trouble to the whole of Australia, knowing that even if there were doctors from the 21st century in the crowd, there was absolutely no guarantee that a smallpox vaccine could be developed.
After learning the details, Lu Zhen of Xin'an County felt that this was another big business opportunity, in fact, it was not to blame Lord Lu for being so swept away, but he was really poor, and now he finally saw such an opportunity to make money, how could he not act.
It's easy for Australians to have a daughter-in-law, we have a yellow flower girl in Xin'an County, what kind of shop is this, let's do this for you, you can rest assured, wait for me to send you a yellow flower girl.
The chief master of Xin'an County, Uncle Fei saw Yang Yuzhou politely and immediately explained his intentions, but there was no pie in the sky, and Yang Yuzhou, a foreign trade man, must know that it was not his turn to do such a good thing.
Speaking of the end, the Master Fei Uncle Fei said with some embarrassment, as long as you pay a little tip, we will help to ensure that you are satisfied, and you can return it if you are not satisfied.
What, return the goods, this yellow flower girl also returns the goods, thanks to the fact that you still read the sage book, as long as this man and woman accidentally touch the lower arm, they will be talked about, you still dare to pack the ticket refund, those girls' families don't beat you to death.
But this is a good thing, there is a government willing to do this, it is better than coming by yourself, in fact, Yang Yuzhou has thought about it, this woman, come here, anyway, there will always be someone who immigrates to Australia, there is a shortage of everything, and women are also lacking, once this man is full, he will want to marry his daughter-in-law and have children.
The environment in Australia determines that new immigrants will definitely live a well-fed and well-fed life, so in order to avoid unnecessary troubles caused by too unbalanced gender ratio in society in the future, it is better to recruit more women.
Actually, Yang Yuzhou estimated that this Xin'an County Order also wanted to make a lot of money, otherwise why do such a thankless thing.
I promise you that this is no problem, but you must also have an answer to the things you have done for us as soon as possible. Yang Yuzhou took this opportunity to put pressure on Xin'an County, after all, it has been more than ten days since the lease of Hong Kong, and he has not given an answer, which makes him feel a little uneasy.
Regarding the lease of Hong Kong by Australian Fanyi, the Xin'an County Commander first reported to his Shangguan Guangzhou Governor, and the governor saw that this matter was not something he could decide.
So this matter was reported to the current governor of Liangguang, Shen Youlong, this old Shen is an upright person, and he is a righteous man in history, which shows that this guy has little affection for the foreign people in Fanbang.
I didn't think much about it and refused, but this Xin'an County ordered Lu Zhen to work hard in order to lease Hong Kong, and actually gave away the treasures obtained from the Australians one by one, and gave a copy to the officials who could talk to Liangguang, so that they could help intercede, that is, to lease a piece of land for inventory replenishment, and it would never be messed around.
In addition to trade, this matter is still related to Fanbang Nagong, and Lord Shen is really hard to say when he hears this.
In desperation, under the grinding teeth of an official who had received benefits, he agreed to lease Hong Kong to the Australians, but he had to report this matter to the imperial court, and before that, the Australians could operate there in private, and as for building houses with great fanfare, they had to wait for the imperial court's decision.
In fact, there are two main factions among the officials who lease Hong Kong to Australians, one is for support and the other is against, and those who support are basically officials who have benefited from it, and those who oppose it are relatively rigid officials, who are the most difficult to handle, but in the end they were dealt with by their colleagues.
Seeing Uncle Fei's reply with a wry smile, Yang Yuzhou frowned, and waited for more than ten days to come to such a reply, which is no different from disagreeing, do you really want Australia to be the first power to open the door of the Ming Dynasty.
