Russia now hates the British to death, and the ideal is to sell Alaska to the United States and cultivate a big enemy for the British, because the United States vaguely wants to attack British Columbia, but now Britain's national strength is in full swing, and the British navy is invincible, so it does not dare to act rashly for the time being. In the eyes of the Russians, Japan is a small country much weaker than themselves, and they simply have no ability to hold Alaska, and what the Bank of Zurich is doing is a loss-making transaction, if it weren't for the fact that the Bank of Zurich is a bank under Downing, the Russians don't even have to think about it. Right now, almost no one is optimistic about Japan's development.

Alexander II was a good reformer, and he attached great importance to Downing, a great industrialist, and consulted with the representatives sent by the Japanese side in good faith. The Russians wanted Downing's investment, but Downing had little confidence in cooperation with a vodka spirit-loving people, and mainly gave money, and basically did not develop Russia himself. The money is given to you, how to do it is your own business, anyway, Tang Ning is not short of that money. Alaska is icy and snowy, the environment is harsh, since the Russians colonized this place in the 17th century, never reaped any benefits from here, but because of the garrison and a large amount of "waste of military spending", this easy to attack and difficult to defend North American colony can be described as tasteless, it is a pity to abandon it, the Russians can not make much money. The Japanese cried again about poverty, and the amount set was 1.5 million pounds, which was still without Downing's investment commitment, and if Downing was willing to invest in Russia, the price could be lower.

At this time, even if the United States wanted to buy Alaska, it could not spare time because the United States had an economic crisis. Over the past decade or so, the United States has built more railroads than the rest of the world, and there is a clear surplus of transportation capacity. Investors in England, who most like to invest in old American watches, suffered heavy losses, and a large number of investors went bankrupt. British investors also invested a lot in Europe, and the economic crisis in the United States was transmitted to Britain and Europe, causing the first global economic crisis.

Japan is also catching up with the good time, and now Downing's steel and other industrial products have begun to be unsalable, and all of them are being shipped to Japan to rebuild Edo and repair Japan's railways. It is also necessary to fool Russia to invest a large amount of 1.5 million pounds that has just been received in the construction of railways and other steel-needed construction.

Regarding the economic crisis, Marx called it overproduction, and said that the way to eradicate the economic crisis was public ownership, because the blind pursuit of profits by the capitalists inevitably led to overproduction. In fact, Tang Ning did not believe in Marx's advocacy at all, and told him privately that without capitalists and the market, the planned economy would be even more blind, and even a shortage of commodities would occur, and the products in demand in the market would be too complicated, and compulsory planning would only lead to a shortage of a large number of commodities, which was much worse than overproduction. He and Marx could never have been close, because even the most basic theory, Downing, had a disagreement with Lao Ma.

In order to convince the old horse, Tang Ning also told the old horse biological examples, the first example: after the head of a poisonous snake is cut off, it can still feel the temperature and bite; The second example: the male mantis is eaten by the female mantis, and most of the body is left with only the mating tail, which has a stronger ability to mate. For example, nature has preserved the most perfect way of cooperation through natural selection in front of us - only decentralization, to precision control zhì can win in the competition, small snakes and insects need to perform their own duties, human industries and commodities are so abundant, how to optimize resources? There is only the simplest rule - the market.

So, should the government deal with the economic crisis? Downing's point is that it is needed. It is not to completely prevent the occurrence of an economic crisis, but to establish a sound social security system so that unemployed workers do not despair. Then there is the establishment of a re-employment training system. When God closes a door, he always opens another window, and there is always an opportunity. The government could also support new industries and new colonies. The specific measures include the tilt of monetary policy, the state pays for the surplus workers to be sent to the colonies where labor is in dire need, at this time, the unemployed workers are no longer able to do long-distance migration, so the state should intervene, and this is what the government should do.

Of course, a big industrialist like Downing can also do what should be done by the US government, he set an example and launched the Panama Canal project in advance, the construction machinery is not perfect, the first human flesh is dug up, because it requires a lot of manpower, just to solve the urgent need of the US economic crisis, at this time Panama is a province of Colombia, a weak country, do not dare to oppose the big capitalists' intention to dig the canal, at this time the Panama Canal is a major way to increase American employment, and the Americans are eager to start work as soon as possible. If Colombia does not allow the canal to be built, the United States may beat it up.

Because of the strategic importance of the Panama Canal, the U.S. government wanted to have enough rights to have an excuse to station troops there. Downing didn't intend to monopolize such an important canal, so let's say, come on, but because the excavation of the Panama Canal is very complicated, the terrain is difficult, and the water level at both ends is not ordinary, it may be necessary to use giant locks and build in the tropical rainforest, and the project will be affected by heavy rainstorms at two ends in three days, and it will also be interfered with by terrible infectious diseases such as malaria, cholera, and yellow fever, so the initial budget is 20 million pounds, and the brothers will not come?

All investors were scared away by this number, the U.S. government could not find private investors at all, and at this time there was a financial crisis, at this time the dollar was linked to gold and silver, and it was impossible to print dollar money, and the canal with unknown earnings was unlikely to become a project agreed by the legislators, because the financial winter was coming, the United States had already shown signs of a currency crisis, and the major banks were holding their money bags to death, otherwise they would really die.

In the end, the U.S. government got a 2 million pound pledge from Parliament, and it still wants to have the right to garrison troops for this investment? Dream on. The engineers of the American side assessed the amount of work and confirmed that the 20 million pounds were sincere, so they had to retreat in shame, and some strategic experts were not optimistic about this project, so let the big capitalists do a good job, and it is not too late for the US imperialist army to come back to make oil and water, can the Grand Duke of Luxembourg, a small landlocked European country, still block the small canal around the United States? It is impossible, with such a close strategic position, it is impossible for the British Empire to be an enemy of the United States, and the supply will definitely not be able to keep up.

This time, the whole world was really shocked, the big tyrants are richer than the US government? In any case, this time the big project is not optimistic about investors, and the financial crisis has also made the rich buy heavily depreciated American assets, and they have no intention of taking care of the canal, which will be a big project that will be carried out for decades, so this time it is really Downing alone, all the investment is paid by himself, and the Suez Canal is also carried out at the same time, and at the same time supporting Japan to buy Alaska and Edo reconstruction, how rich is the Grand Duke of Windsor?

It is enough to ask Downing to come up with 20 million pounds at one time, but this can be divided into about ten years, which is much less stressful, and he has now at least mastered the construction method of the industry.

For the Panabanas Canal, the most fatal thing is the infectious disease of the tropical rainforest, so the project has not been started, medical treatment first, and the Windsor Hospital has started the research and development of malaria and yellow fever vaccines early, with a large number of mosquito control activities.

Regarding mosquito control, some inventors have thought of using the principle of relying on the sound waves emitted by flapping wings to attract the opposite sex when mosquitoes mate, using tuning forks to imitate the frequency of sound waves, and attracting a large number of mosquitoes to extinguish them, but unfortunately this way is interesting and useless, because only male mosquitoes will be attracted by sound waves, and the effect of killing male mosquitoes is very poor, male mosquitoes only need a few survivors to mate with female mosquitoes in large numbers, and the offspring produced are not much less. Or honestly use pesticides to kill the eggs laid by female mosquitoes in the water, the eggs are relatively fragile, and clever strategists always take advantage of the enemy's weakness.

It is estimated that the trick of using ultrasonic waves has long been tested by nature, because sound waves are easy to imitate, and the natural enemies of mosquitoes can use this method to eat, and as a result, only male mosquitoes will be attracted, so it is not easy to be annihilated in one fell swoop, and nature is the smartest.

It's not realistic to eradicate 100% mosquitoes, so with physical methods such as mosquito nets and finally reliable drugs, the rainforest is no longer a daunting prospect for the engineering team.

Although the Grand Duke of Windsor has money, will it be too much to toss such a "no benefit" project? No matter how local tyrants are, they can't stand such a loser. People all over the world are defending him, the grace of the Grand Duke is now all over the world, Europe, Asia, North America, there are shadows of him doing charity, even the church has to be convinced, in charity, Downing's investment has made people feel that he is too idealistic, the reality is often cruel, can god-level industrialists and scientists be an exception?

For Christians who oppose atheism and are afraid that they will not be able to go to heaven, unemployment is really entangled in them, and the Grand Duke of Windsor has hired a worker, can he go or not? If you don't go, you're going to heaven tomorrow, and it seems that there is still something to be nostalgic for in the world, just in case...... If God really doesn't save zài, isn't that a big loss? Some of the less devout believers began to apostatize and prayed, "Merciful Lord, I solemnly swear to you that tomorrow if I can't find a job, I will go to the Grand Duke of Windsor to eat a bowl of rice, so please bless me!" As a result, most of the prayers were unsuccessful, and the renegade hated the Archduke of Windsor by filling in the word "atheist" in his job application, because it was said that the atheist was more likely to be hired, alas, depraved, and the world was difficult......

The treatment given by the Grand Duke is very good, the work is not too hard, do it first, and there will be construction machinery in the future, so there is no hurry, and workers of all colors get along well, because in addition to atheism, non-racists are also preferred, everyone knows how to coexist peacefully, even if it is a little racist, it has to be hidden, and it is not good to be discovered by the Grand Duke.

Downing is obviously not rushing to dig a good canal on the way to flash people, before the start of construction always plan the colony points, in the future these colonies can be a good place to live on a large scale, the standard of infrastructure is quite high, the working environment of the workers is quite ideal, the construction site at first glance, is a beautiful and neat community under construction, the architectural style is unprecedented, it is the Panama Canal Company according to the local resources, climate specially designed wood building, by the expensive large woodworking machinery processed in large quantities, Regular and cost-effective, low-key and livable, as long as the new workers take a look at those workers' communities from afar, they will not regret following the wrong devil ambassadors.

Wind farms, running water, sewer pipes, toilets, garbage bins, window screens, mosquito nets, shower rooms are all standard, and American workers may find that living conditions here may be better than they are back home. Many workers couldn't help asking, "Can I bring my daughter-in-law here?" ”

The American media has no position on Downing, so it is very objective to report on what happened in Panama, good is good, but is such a life too luxurious for workers? Even the American media such as the New York Times worried about Downing's concern about whether this luxurious worker's life was sustainable for a capitalist. In fact, once the cost of a certain commodity is used on a large scale, the cost will be reduced, and other capitalists just don't have the heart to please the workers, and they don't have the ability to use capital so efficiently. (http:／／.）。 Once the value of the settlements rises in value, Downing will make a fortune, and the more the workers value the jobs here, the harder they will work and do more with less, and the situation will develop in a better direction.

In order to allow the prospecting team to freely travel across the vast landscape, his team is experimenting with tracked snowmobiles in the Swiss Alps, which are vehicles with "forefeet" like sleds and tracked hind legs. With it, the pace of the Alaskan mining company will quickly spread to all the locations where the treasure may be hidden.

In order to ensure that the snowmobile can operate normally in any low temperature area on the earth, there is a trick in the design of the fuel cell engine - wrapped in a layer of air conditioning system, when the motorcycle stops for a long time, a small windmill stands up, in the snowstorm can provide enough energy for air conditioning operation, even if it is left at minus fifty or sixty degrees overnight, the motorcycle still maintains a fairly mild climate, which is a huge quality of life improvement for both the car and the driver.

When this treasure comes out, Japan will feel that it has made the right choice - follow the Grand Duke of Windsor, reliable!
