"Is this the legendary lottery port? This is too child's play, just draw the winning red ball in the box marked with the South China Sea, the Sulu Sea or the Sulawesi Sea to contract the right to build a port? Wang Neng pointed to the 250 balls in the lottery box and said, saying that he could not accept the auction of the construction right to use this child's play method.

More than 500 builders from all over the coast participated in the auction, most of whom were partners of Chenji. This game of 300 draws 200 is that the supporter auctions a ball before each draw, regardless of whether the red ball or the white ball is drawn, the bidder has to pay according to the bid. If you draw a good red ball, you will have at least hundreds of thousands of profits, and if you don't draw it, you will throw away a lot of money from the bid. The odds of winning in four out of five and dozens of times the return prompted these builders to raise the price of each raffle opportunity from 10,000 to around 40,000 to 50,000.

"It doesn't matter, our auction of 200 ports is just the beginning. There are many ports in Southeast Asia, there are 40 ports with more than 100,000 people alone, and you can see that these builders involved in the construction are basically small businessmen who do not have enough capital, and you know that we are just letting some partners test the water, make a little money and accumulate some experience.

Large ports such as Singapore and the important seaport of Jakarta are also our own companies with the highest level of construction qualifications. Although these ports involve an investment of 300 billion yuan in the future, it was only 20 billion yuan in the first ten years. This auction is only the construction right of a non-critical port equivalent to the scale of Hualien Port on Dongyi Island, with a total investment of only 2 billion. Even if they get it. At most, it's just a few million. Li Fei, who went to Quanzhou, the city of light, to preside over the Nanyang development plan, said to Wang Neng.

"Thirty thousand!" A wealthy businessman who looked like a member raised a sign to bid a little louder.

"Okay, the 20th person to get the lottery opportunity is Mr. Wan of Yuanyuan Construction, let's take a look at which port it is." The host opens the red ball in his hand. Unfold the note in the ball.

"Oh my God! This port is Zamboanga Port. There are many specialties in the surrounding area. Rubber, pearls, coconut, high-quality hardwoods, fish, hemp and fruit can be produced, all of which are scheduled for the company's plantation planning projects. Winning the right to build this port is a fortune. The company's average output value of this port over the next ten years is estimated at 2 million. ”

A builder who reacted quickly immediately made a bid of 1 million yuan to Wan, asking him to transfer the construction rights of the port.

In fact, the bosses who are doing port engineering know in their hearts that the prosperity of a port is determined by the special products and location of the port. This port, which has direct access to the Spice Islands, is not only strategically located, but also rich in produce. If you get the right to build, you can get the right to operate the port by the way. The valuation of Nanyang Development Group, a subsidiary of the authoritative Chenji Company, is an extremely accurate valuation. Even if the valuation is not reached, the company will achieve the valuation of the output value. Ports from scratch will naturally accelerate their development, and the output value will be nothing in ten years. What about the output value in 10 years' time? Perhaps in 20 years, the value of this port could reach 20 million. Even if such a port does not get the full right to operate the terminal, 20% of the operation rights are enough for the builder's family to earn hundreds of thousands of dollars a year.

Many builders who were stimulated by this went crazy in the later port bidding. The sky-high price of 2 million has been shouted out.

Building a port is nothing in the eyes of many deep-pocketed nouveau riche. Because these cargo throughput will not exceed 10,000 tons in ten years, the small fish port is not worth the effort, before coming here to bid with the mentality of pleasing the auction party Chenji Group, I didn't expect to carefully understand the auction thing is not the imaginary construction of one or two wharves, but 200 each in at least ten years can reach 200,000 tons of throughput of all the infrastructure of the port. That's a lot of money. If you get this order. It's worth it even if it's a loss.

Not to mention that the training of the construction guidance technicians who master the advanced technology sent by the Chenji Construction Group to the construction team is a good thing that cannot be bought with money, and the construction rights of the entire port can be divided into independent contracts according to the wharf area, warehouse area, residential area, commercial area, industrial area, transportation facilities, water supply and sewage system, etc., and it is impossible for them to lose. These contracts not only imply stable cash flow and full capacity utilization during the future construction period, but also can be expanded with a mortgage loan from Chenji Bank.

There are so many benefits, so many of the contractors here are excited to stand up and bid.

"If we develop in Nanyang like this, engage in infrastructure and logistics concepts, and develop liquidity, will it lead to Nanyang becoming a new bubble?"

"Absolutely not. You know, we're in the South Seas. In particular, the land east of the South China Sea that is not part of the civilized area has been robbed. I counted the saved land acquisition costs into the profits, and in the accounting accounts, I allocated them to the state subsidies in the early stage of the group's expansion projects. These lands are all land that our mercenaries and development teams have acquired from barbarians almost free of charge by making full use of various means such as cheating, abduction, stealing, robbery, and killing, and these ports are the starting point for future development. ”

"Could it be that some time ago, the special money allocated by the finance department was the cost of purchasing land for our advance team?"

"yes, don't you know? 200 million dollars and hundreds of low-level titles bought 200,000 square kilometers of coastal land from our many mercenary subordinates! Inland rainforests that are not coastal and expensive to develop have been declared protected by the government in one fell swoop, swallowing up 2 million square kilometers of islands for nothing. This kind of map is very fast, right? ”

"You're speechless. What about the natives? ”

"Are you busy?"

"Why are you busy with me?"

"The Legislative Council is about to meet to enact one of the most important colonial laws of the future, the Native Ordinance, and you should also participate!"

"At the meeting that will only be held next month, is it too much for you to auction off the construction rights of these ports with such fanfare? We didn't have a policy for the indigenous people, and you got so much land? ”

"It is the prerogative of the strong to cut first and then play. Don't you cut first and then play as often? Who is qualified to say about me? ”

"Well, I just hope that this regulation will not be carried out for 10,000 years, and you will not go along with the genocidal proposal of the nationalist and executioner at the meeting!"

"Do you say Lao Sun or Lao Wang?"

"Of course it's not the two of them. It was Comrade Zhou Lijian, who had clearly exposed his tone and published "The Theory that Civilization Will Eliminate Barbarism" on the internal reference a few days ago. ”

"I'll go! Isn't he usually a low-key otaku who studies chemical technology! How did you start being so cruel! The arguments in that article were either slaughtered or enslaved to build roads and mine. Where can I see that this article was written by him! ”

"I don't want to make this a basic state policy, given that the British scalping tactics of massacring the Indians have made countless people in later generations abhor the perpetrators of crimes against humanity! Maybe there should be no psychological and moral barriers to the extermination of those cannibals who have cannibalistic customs, but the treatment of those mild and friendly natives who have no writing should be based on assimilation, after all, they are inferior in both relative and absolute numbers after colonization! We still need to be so infamy! ”

"Yes, but the climate and environment of the South Seas are complex, and there are thousands of indigenous species. There are seven or eight thousand different indigenous languages on Irian Island alone, and if we can settle these difficult tribes in ten years, the rest of the indigenous people will not be a problem. ”

"You're dreaming! We won't go to that island that will be difficult for future generations! Although it has been drawn on the map. But I don't want to hear anything other than birds of paradise and crocodiles, so I'll save this tough bone until Nanzhou (Australia) is done. ”

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

A month later, the "Regulations on the Management of Indigenous Territories in the Chinese Empire", which caused countless natives to shed blood and tears, was promulgated. A simple criterion is the presence or absence of text. Those who have words are civilized races. They were to be treated in the same way as many foreigners, and those who did not have a written language were to be subject to the administration and the arrangements for their place of residence and work after being incorporated into the territory, and all those who resisted were sent to hard labor.

Their biggest possessions are the tents they live in and worthless garbage (pots and pans, household items and the like look like garbage). In fact, for the sake of the most valuable land, it is a kind of benevolent government to spend a small amount of money to move these hidden dangers to the periphery of many coastal cities that are well managed and monitored. The problem of the aborigines was well solved, and the fishermen along the coast continued to fish, but the land and property in the fishing villages were all nationalized and became the property of the imperial government. The cost is a modern life and free health and education benefits, and more efficient and cheap tools of production (big fishing boats and fishing nets). Hunting tribes in the interior had a similar experience. After the relocation, they became settled peasants and Belt and Road mercenaries (distributed according to individual character and tribal customs), and no fool would oppose such a change.

In this way, the vast amount of land smoothly entered the pockets of colonists and nouveau riche and immigrants of all sizes.

As for the slaughter, of course, the fiercest battles were fought against the poisonous insects and reptiles that were ubiquitous in the rainforest, and the worst tropical diseases and non-combat attrition were the most casualty. The battle with a few cannibal tribes with headhunter customs was not worth mentioning, a few flashbangs with strong blinding properties and a few invulnerable all-steel armored mercenaries were able to defeat all the tribal warriors, and the battle naturally ended smoothly after the leading party came out to shout.

According to the cohabitation data of later generations, during the more than ten years of the imperial government in Nanyang, less than 1% of all the war-damaged personnel were imperial citizens (mercenaries from the mainland), about 2% were mercenaries from vassal states such as Japan and South Korea, and the rest were local indigenous naturalized people.

Similarly, the proportion of builders and workers killed or injured in the construction of many ports and the development of the South Seas is similar. It can be said that even under the best safeguards of the crossing people, there is an indigenous corpse under every pier stake in every piece of land. (To be continued......)
