It must be said that the Lanfang National Security Bureau is still very efficient. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

On the second day of Qin Zhiyuan's meeting, the Lanfang National Security Bureau, together with the Wanghai Prefecture Military Region and the Sarawak Autonomous Alliance, launched a surprise operation and arrested all the pro-British elements on the list, except for Li Zongli.

This was another major earthquake for Sarawak, and thousands of people were implicated in this incident.

After this raid, no one in Sarawak dared to cooperate with the British, and the actions of the National Security Service completely broke the minds of those pro-British elements.

In fact, there are few people in the entire Sarawak area, the war has been going on for more than two years, the colonial army of British Malaya and the resistance army of the Sarawak Autonomous Union have launched a fierce tug-of-war in various parts of Sarawak, and the people are almost one in ten, those who are pro-British have gone to the Malay Peninsula, most of the pro-Lanfang have gone to Wanghai Prefecture and Zhenghe Island, and some have been diverted to the Philippines, and the entire Sarawak region, there are now up to 100,000 people.

100,000 people, which is not even as many as a city below Wanghai Prefecture, and I don't know what those people are tossing.

The Abandonment of Sarawak by the British is also related to the sharp decline in the population of Sarawak.

In fact, compared to the colonies all over the world, there are really not many pure British left, and the British seized the colonies not for land, but to find enough markets for their own industrial products.

The British will give up Sarawak, but Qin Zhiyuan will not give up.

After entering 1920, Lanfang once again ushered in the peak of fertility, as far as Lanfang is concerned, nearly one million babies were born in the first eight months of 1920, only the natural population growth rate in the first eight months reached 9.5 percent, and the annual population growth rate is estimated to reach about 13 percent.

With the continuous increase in population, the situation of Lanfang in all aspects is also developing rapidly, by August 1920, the rice has been harvested for two seasons, the total amount of arable land in Lanfang is about 27 million mu, although the population of Lanfang has increased rapidly in the past two years, but because the land is also expanding, Lanfang's policy of giving 100 land per household to new immigrants has not changed.

Objectively speaking, the yield of Lanfang's land is still good, although it is not as good as the yield of hybrid rice in tons per mu, and it is not as good as the intensive cultivation of a family of farmers in the Republic of China who serve an acre of land, and the yield of 300 kilograms per mu in a single season is no problem, but in the first two seasons, Lanfang's grain output has exceeded 10 million tons, and these grains are enough for all the people of Lanfang to eat for three years.

Speaking of which, the people who immigrated to Lanfang in the Republic of China basically did not sell grain in the first year, but in the second year, the continuous bumper harvest forced these farmers who used to regard grain as more important than their lives to start selling grain.

If you don't sell it, you can't put it in the granary.

Therefore, in the past two years, Lanfang's grain has not only been supplied to the Republic of China and Germany in large quantities, but also exported to the United States and Europe, in exchange for agricultural and sideline products from the United States and Europe to supplement Lanfang's daily needs.

Of course, what is supplied to the Republic of China and Germany is basically the same as free, the Beiyang government of the Republic of China has become an alliance with Lan Fang, and it is also an all-round strategic partner, Germany is a potential ally of Lan Fang, and now it is in difficulty, whether it is out of the personal feelings of Qin Zhiyuan and William III, or in humanitarianism, Qin Zhiyuan cannot leave the Republic of China alone.

Compared with agriculture, the development of industry is more gratifying, in the first eight months of 1920, Lanfang's industry has completed all the goals of the year, and it is expected that this year can complete the industrial production increase plan of 150 percent, this growth rate can be described as a standout in the case of a downturn in the world economy, if it continues, Lanfang's first five-year plan can be completed about a year and a half ahead of schedule, when Lanfang is an out-and-out power, industry can catch up with the United States, and France's economic aggregate will be almost the same.

From a geographical point of view, France plus the colonies, in fact, the territory is much larger than Lanfang, but most of the French colonies are in an undeveloped state, and there are very few special circumstances like the three North African countries, so France's economic aggregate is really not much higher, and it is stronger than Italy, and it is still incomparable with Britain and the United States.

Not to mention the United States, its own industrial strength dominates the world, there is no dispute, Lanfang wants to catch up with the time, Britain has the world's largest colonies, among which the predominantly white Canada and Australia are now seeking autonomy This is not to mention, India, a country with a population of 300 million, provides the world's largest market for British industrial products, so Britain's industrial capacity is far above France.

Don't look at the fact that India's population is not as large as the Republic of China, but when it comes to the demand for industry, India is much stronger than the Republic of China.

The Republic of China is an economic model based on the family economy and the small-scale peasant economy, and an ordinary family in the Republic of China grows the food they eat, weaves the clothes they wear, and makes the furniture they use, but in fact they don't need much industrial products at all.

India is different, India is a country that can really be called densely populated, they have no basis for a small-scale peasant economy, and there is not even enough food to eat in the country, so all aspects of the national economy need to be helped by the British, so they have a strong dependence on the British.

Qin Zhiyuan doesn't care whether the British are helping Indians or not, since returning to Lanfang, Qin Zhiyuan's energy is in Siam, even if he is inspecting the country, Qin Zhiyuan is only on the way, including the trip to Factory 104, all because Qin Zhiyuan is going to Cam Ranh Bay, so he stops by.

Speaking of Cam Ranh Bay, the new French Governor in Indochina, Leoté, has been in office for half a year, but Qin Zhiyuan has not met this old friend, which is really rude, so Qin Zhiyuan made a special trip to Cam Ranh Bay this time, and while inspecting Cam Ranh Bay, he met with Leotey by the way.

Two years ago, Qin Zhiyuan leased Cam Ranh Bay from the French, and the contract signed at that time was 99 years, and after the contract expired, Lan Fang still had the right of first refusal, in other words, Cam Ranh Bay is now similar to Lan Fang's land, so Qin Zhiyuan is not stingy with investment in Cam Ranh Bay.

After more than two years of efforts by 100,000 Annamite people, Cam Ranh Bay is now a first-class port with complete facilities, which not only has a military area for the Cam Ranh Bay fleet, but also a civilian area for merchant ships, and has now surpassed the Lion City to become a new commodity distribution center in Southeast Asia.

When Qin Zhiyuan met Leotai, Leotai was visiting Cam Ranh Bay accompanied by Zhang You, chief engineer of Cam Ranh Bay Shipyard, and Huang Yinrong, director of the factory, and saw Qin Zhiyuan Leotey with a depressed face: "I seriously suspect that you have an unshady deal with Bastian, otherwise how could Bastian lease this place to you?" And it's actually 99 years old, Bastian's brain was kicked by a donkey? ”

Cam Ranh Bay is now the largest port in Southeast Asia, and it is also a rare deep-water military port in East Asia, which makes Leotai go crazy, seeing Cam Ranh Bay more and more prosperous in the hands of Lan Fang people, Leotai's mood can be imagined.

France also has the Far East Fleet, but the home port of the French Far East Fleet is Guangzhou Bay, Leothai really can't figure it out, why is there such an excellent Cam Ranh Bay with such conditions, but he wants to go to Guangzhou Bay to touch the brows of the Chinese, doesn't Bastian know the relationship between Qin Zhiyuan and the Chinese?

"Don't be surprised, Louie, if you knew how much we put into Cam Ranh Bay, you wouldn't be complaining." Qin Zhiyuan didn't care about Leotei's complaints.

During the World War, Qin Zhiyuan and Leotai had a very good relationship, the two were actually colleagues, and they cooperated with each other tacitly.

Lan Fang's investment in Cam Ranh Bay has been countless, and even Qin Zhiyuan doesn't know how much he has invested, it is certain that if Lan Fang doesn't have this money, the French will definitely not come out, so Leotei really has little right to complain.

"Don't tell me that, that stupid pig of Bastian may not know the meaning of a good deep-water military port, or maybe he has leased this place to you for some other reason, anyway, he will definitely not be able to escape the investigation of the military department, I have written a report on the affairs here and sent it to the military department, including your affairs, I will record them truthfully." Leotei is a traditional soldier, France's interests are above all else, although he has a good personal relationship with Qin Zhiyuan, but in the face of national interests, Leotei will not compromise.

"How do I hear some accusations - Louie, ** you suspect that there is a dark box operation here, so whatever you want." Qin Zhiyuan didn't mind.

Bastian was not clean in Annan, when he returned to Europe, Bastian carried a whole carriage of large boxes and those two charming beauties can prove this, but if the investigation focuses on the relationship between Bastian and Lan Fang, it is estimated that it will disappoint the people in the French Congress, Qin Zhiyuan and Bastian will not use private accounts even if they have any insider trading, LLL company is a good carrier.

What's more, on the issue of Cam Ranh Bay, there was no transaction between Qin Zhiyuan and Bastian at all.

"Hmph, it's best if you don't, if there is, I won't show favoritism, although we have a good relationship, but one yard is one yard, I hope you can understand." Leothai wasn't going to compromise, and his words were still a bit hard.

"Understand, understand, understand, okay, we haven't seen each other for so long, can't we say something happy?" Qin Zhiyuan diverted the topic, not wanting to entangle with Leotai on the issue of Cam Ranh Bay.

"Happy thing? I guess you have, look at that - tsk, look at that, really- incredible, if George saw that, he would probably die of hunger. Leothai immediately followed Qin Zhiyuan's topic, looking in the direction of the military port.

In the military port, it is estimated that the battleship "Lanfang," which has already been launched and is entering the stage of sea trials, has just undergone a long-distance voyage and is undergoing routine inspection in the harbor; although the "Lanfang" has not yet officially entered active duty, the officers and men of the Navy have already boarded the "Lanfang" and are beginning to familiarize themselves with the specific performance of the "Lanfang."

The "Française" stopped next to the "Lanfang", like a little follower of the "Lanfang".

It's really symbolic.
