Blund was taken away for investigation did have an impact, but it didn't seem so bad.

Perhaps it was from this incident that the crisis was felt and more people were discouraged, and within three days, the number of workers and engineers who chose to work in Corsica increased to more than 2,000, and the number of workers who chose to work in Lanfang increased even more, which is almost the same as the number of people who chose to go to Corsica.

Perhaps because of the distance from Europe, the proportion of engineers and designers who choose to work in Lanfang is higher.

Qin Zhiyuan has provided these people with favorable working and living conditions, providing accommodation and basic living facilities is only the basic, and it is twice the salary of Krupp, with no less than one month of paid vacation per year, which is evenly distributed in various holidays in the middle of the year, including Christmas and New Year's Day in Europe, as well as Easter, Halloween, Christmas Advent, etc., and whenever they are in the Chinese festival, these Germans will also take vacations, such as Qingming Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Double Ninth Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival.

Of course, the Chinese also enjoy the benefits of European holidays.

In addition, Lanfang also has more detailed regulations on working hours than Corsica, such as working eight hours a day in principle, more than ten hours is considered overtime, overtime will be 1.5 times overtime pay, overtime work on holidays 2 times overtime pay, five-day work week, etc., which makes management more humane.

Even much higher than the level of humanity in European and American countries.

Especially when the world war was just over.

You must know that during the world war, almost all factories around the world were desperately rushing to work, and the working hours of workers were often 15.6 hours, don't think about overtime pay or anything, and the basic salary can be paid on time is considered a good financial level.

The workers, of course, were reluctant to undertake such intense labor, so the prevailing trade unions began to organize workers' strikes.

But during the world wars, governments that were under threat of death every day were violent, tearing off the veil of warmth and becoming murderous, and if anyone dared to strike, they would all be gathered and sent to war, and the organizers of the strike were brought to court as "******", as was the case in Britain and Germany.

Therefore, in Europe, where there is a lot of mourning, the humanized management of Lanfang looks particularly attractive, as if just like the name "Lanfang", every word is full of temptation, and the fragrance of the hollow valley orchid is revealed between the lines.

Increasing the welfare of workers will definitely affect the cost of the product, which in turn will affect the competitiveness of the product.

But Qin Zhiyuan thinks it's all worth it.

For Lanfang, the route to be taken in the future is high-tech, high value-added industries, then the profit margin of the product will be very high.

Increasing the welfare of workers, in fact, for factory owners, is the question of earning a hundred or earning fifty.

In Qin Zhiyuan's view, what can a country, or a region, rely on?

Not the ruling class at the top, nor the working class at the bottom, but the vast middle stratum.

In any country at present, the distribution of social income is basically a pyramid structure, with the lowest number of people at the top holding the most resources, and the lowest class having the largest number of people and the least distribution of goods.

Those at the top, the so-called "headmen", no matter how poor their origins, once they reach the top of the pyramid, their task is no longer to continue to climb the higher classes, but to ensure that their status is not affected, so that they lose their motivation and become obstacles to social change.

Those at the bottom can't see the upward channel, they have no room for promotion, and they don't have a channel for promotion, simply put, they can't see hope, so various social problems have been derived.

Qin Zhiyuan wanted to create a flat structure, there were still so few people at the top, but they didn't earn so much; The number of people at the bottom is also small, and this part of them is not enterprising and eats and waits for death, and they deserve to be poor.

The largest number of people is the vast middle class.

This will definitely take time, especially because the Republic of China has a huge population base, which is destined to take a difficult process, and it may even take decades to achieve, but Qin Zhiyuan is not discouraged, although his mental age is already thirty years younger, this body is only 21 years old this year, and there is time to slowly realize the blueprint he planned.

What's more, for the current Qin Zhiyuan, because of penicillin and the United Oil Company, as well as the operating "Frank Company", Qin Zhiyuan already has a good foundation in his hands, and these factories will bring huge wealth to Qin Zhiyuan every year, if it is used for the Republic of China, it may be a little insufficient, but if it is used to create a demonstration area, it is enough.

For example, Shenzhen in another time and space is a good example.

At the beginning of the reform and opening up, the value of Shenzhen was not how much money it could make, but to set up a model and become a benchmark, so that people in confusion could understand what kind of speed the "Shenzhen speed" was, and let people who were not confident understand how much potential the Chinese had.

This value is not visible on the surface, but in fact it is extremely useful.

Qin Zhiyuan just wants to make Lanfang another "Shenzhen", an enlarged version of Shenzhen.

This does not need to build the whole of Lanfang into Shenzhen in another time and space, only a few super-large enterprises, coupled with a certain degree of publicity, can form a considerable scale of "demonstration effect".

There is a popular saying among the Chinese that "not suffering from widowhood but suffering from inequality", which is never worth it, but hope and opportunity.

As long as there is hope and opportunity, the Chinese are more accustomed to using their own hands to create wealth, rather than simply "waiting, relying on, and demanding", and those who reach out to the party are not welcome no matter where they are.

And the focus of "not suffering from few, but suffering from inequality" on wealth is only interpreted by certain careerists when they need it.

Qin Zhiyuan, who understands what he wants to do and knows what he wants to do, has a clear goal.

The purpose of the "Lanfang delegation's" trip to Germany is to make use of the factories that are about to be demolished in Germany, the skilled workers who are about to be dismissed and diverted to other countries, and the mature teams of engineers and designers to lay the initial industrial foundation for Lanfang in a way that is almost like pulling out seedlings and fueling them.

In fact, the term "pulling out the seedlings to help grow" reflects the limitations of the ancients to a certain extent, and if you look at Dubai in the 21st century, you will understand that when you really want to do something, there are really not as many difficulties as you think.

With a large number of workers and engineers deciding to join the "Franck Company", the problems of Krupp have been initially solved, and it will take more time for the next thing to ferment, and that is only a matter of time.

So he left two companions who were proficient in German to be responsible for the follow-up contact, and Zhang Tianyun and the Long brothers continued to the next stop.

The next stop is Rheinmetall, then BMW, then Julius Caesars Shipyard and then Carl Zeiss AG......

In short, before the end of the "Paris Peace Conference" of the Entente countries, Qin Zhiyuan wanted to move all the things that could be seen to Lanfang, and rebuild Germany's powerful industry in Lanfang.

This is part of the agreement between Qin Zhiyuan and Crown Prince Wilhelm, and now it seems that Qin Zhiyuan has taken a big advantage, and the Germans have suffered a big loss. But when Germany needed it, Qin Zhiyuan also had to help the Germans rebuild all this, even including the German army.

With the signing of the Armistice Agreement, German prisoners of war captured during the war began to be released gradually, first among those who were disabled and unfit for work, then by those who were physically weak, and finally by able-bodied young men.

These young men were to atone for Germany's "aggression" with hard labor, and they were to remain in France to build roads, bridges, and mines, until the areas destroyed by the war in France were restored to their pre-war appearance, and then the German prisoners of war were released.

It is the economy and architecture that can be restored, but the psychological trauma is not so easy to recover, and it is even less likely that the dead will be resurrected.

Qin Zhiyuan also had something to do during this time.

Now that the war is over, there is an important matter to be arranged, that is, the remains of those Chinese soldiers who died in the war.

The Chinese have a saying that "the leaves fall back to their roots".

That is to say, no matter where a person lives, he must be buried in his own land when he dies.

This is a tradition in the Chinese world and a way for Chinese people to respect their ancestors.

Even if you die, you have to die by the side of your ancestors, and you can be reunited in the underworld.

France is not far from the Republic of China, many of the corpses have been washed away by the years and only leave the white bones, if this is sent back, I am afraid that it will make the families of the deceased more sad, so they are looking for a place in Paris to build a large cemetery for centralized burial, and those sent back to the Republic of China are only some of the relics used by the martyrs who died in battle.

Well, the ancestors foresaw this situation in the past, so there is a precedent to follow, that is, the "mound of clothes".

Talk for comfort.

Actually, the place is easy to find, in the Bois de Boulogne, where the castle of the Black Swan is located.

Qin Zhiyuan had bought the entire Boulogne forest, an area of about 20 square kilometers that now belonged entirely to Qin Zhiyuan and his Foreign Legion.

The West's attitude towards private property is very open-minded, as long as it is a private territory, no one asks even if it is an emperor behind closed doors, and there is no problem in opening a cemetery.

In the two and a half years from Qin Zhiyuan's leadership of the Chinese to participate in the war against Germany, it lasted nearly two and a half years, and in these two and a half years, more than 18,000 Chinese soldiers were killed and nearly 70,000 were wounded.

So far, Qin Zhiyuan's troops have not exceeded 200,000 people, and the proportion of casualties among the Chinese troops is nearly half.

Of course, on the other hand, there were more than 10 large-scale battles in which the Chinese troops had participated, starting with the Battle of the Somme, in which almost all the French troops had fought on the Western Front, in which the Chinese troops killed more than 100,000 Germans and captured more than 300,000 people, more than twice as many as all Chinese troops.

The results of the Chinese troops were not the largest among the entire Entente powers, but if the proportion of troops was calculated, it was the undisputed first.

And the most amazing thing is that although the Chinese troops inflicted heavy casualties on the German troops, the Germans obviously did not have much hatred for the Chinese, as can be seen from the German soldiers rushing to surrender to the Chinese troops in the Second Battle of Reims.

On December 24, Christmas Eve, Qin Zhiyuan presided over the burial ceremony of the first batch of soldiers, who died in the Kapi area, but they were actually just minfu at that time, not even warriors.

The first batch of soldiers to enter the ground totaled 79 people, of which 13 did not find their bones, so they could only build a "clothed mound".

At that time, there were only 310 people under Qin Zhiyuan's men, which shows the fierceness of the battle.
