After Li Zhigao returned to modern times, he once found a map and carefully compared the location of the manor he bought in Taiping Mansion, and the final result surprised him, the location of the manor was actually near Ma'anshan, and the Zhuangzi who lived by the mountain was at the foot of Ma'anshan!

In other words, the manor he bought unintentionally, including the 2,000 acres of land, was actually the location of the Ma'anshan Iron and Steel Plant in the later generations, even if it was a little different, but there was not much difference.

Since this is the case, Li Zhigao has already made up his mind to run that Zhuangzi well and turn it into a new steel city.

Even if the manor was old and dilapidated, and the surrounding area was quite dangerous, and the bandits were full of tenants, he was not too scared now, because he had the crossing ring in his hand, and he already had a regimental training arm as a backing.

Don't mention the ring, it's definitely a big killer of cheating, let's just talk about that group practice. Although there were only 500 recruits who had not undergone much training in that regimental training, and it was estimated that they were not even as good as college military trainees, and their weapons were only 300 guns, in that place, the armed force of 300 British fast guns could already deter all the surrounding bandit forces with bad intentions and the same ill-intentioned tenant groups.

Li Zhigao had already asked Liu Runsheng, although there were many bandits in the vicinity and the toughness index was also very high, they were all bitter haha, where did they get the money to buy arms, and most of the weapons were big swords and spears.

For example, the strongest group of bandits near Chenjiazhuang, the one called Little White Dragon, is only two hundred people, and most of them are equipped with big swords, spears, bows and arrows, and firearms, and there are only eighteen old sleeves, which are not on the same level as their own armed forces of 300 fast guns.

To put it bluntly, even if those 300 regular soldiers don't have much training, even if they can only line up and shoot guns, it is enough for everyone to drink a pot, after all, those are bandits, not regular troops.

Li Zhigao had already thought about it, and when he went back this time, he would pull the team to the manor and open up a training ground near the manor.

In fact, Li Zhigao didn't want to get some modern arms in the past, but now it is very troublesome to buy arms, and it is not something that ordinary businessmen can do, and it is even worse in China, and he has to wait until he goes to South Africa to find a way to find an arms dealer to buy it, but it will take time, and he will not be in a hurry.

Li Zhigao thought about what he could do now, and felt that the original place of the Zhuangzi was too dilapidated and could not accommodate more than 500 people, so he had to build a barracks first.

The construction of the camp also needs materials, so Li Zhigao bought a large number of full sets of color steel prefabricated house materials, all of which are the best flame retardant and warm insulation type, and it is said that there is no problem with it for 30 years.

In addition, he also bought a large number of tables, chairs, benches, combination beds, stainless steel pots and pans, anyway, almost everything that military trainees need.

According to the instructions, the number of prefabricated houses that can be built with these materials he bought is enough for 5,000 people to stay, and I believe that the accommodation of 500 people is absolutely fine.

Of course, soldiers can live in simple dormitories, and if they go by themselves, they must live in the same house, but although the exterior can look the same, the interior may as well change.

I have a ring that crosses two worlds, and I am destined to play the big capitalist and tyrant route in the future, not a hard and simple route, and the opponents around me are estimated to be not so strong in the short term, so there is no need to play with my subordinates to share the joys and sorrows, as long as I can ensure their lives, so that they have no worries about food and clothing, plus life has a head, and there is nothing to do with the brainwashing of modern social enterprise culture, it should be enough.

Therefore, in order to make his life more comfortable, Li Zhigao also bought a lot of household equipment such as air conditioners, refrigerators, water heaters, and washing machines.

Among them, air conditioners, refrigerators, water heaters, etc. are household types for their own use, and washing machines are large washing machines bought and used in large hotels.

Since I bought a lot of household appliances, I had to use electricity, but there was not much electricity at the end of the Qing Dynasty, so I had to generate my own electricity.

After all, it is a long-term residence, which is equal to the construction of a base, and it is said that the construction of a coal thermal power station is serious, but although a lot of coal can be bought around the Zhuangzi, a thermal power station can be built, even if it is a small thermal power, it is not something he can play at present, and he does not use much electricity at present, so it is okay to use diesel generator sets to generate electricity for the time being.

Of course, diesel in modern society is not cheap, and it is a bit painful to always use diesel to generate electricity, but in the world of 1910, diesel is not easy to get, and it is not cost-effective.

In the world in 1910, the petrochemical industry was just starting, and oil cracking had just begun, and the real use of oil had not yet been fully developed.

Diesel and gasoline were also available at that time, but the output was very small, not deliberately produced, most of them were kerosene by-products, mostly used for testing or as special solvents, and had to wait for the two engineers of Standard Oil to invent pyrolysis technology in order to prepare gasoline and diesel in large quantities. Therefore, most of the internal combustion engines at that time also used kerosene, because the octane number was insufficient, coupled with the sticky surname of kerosene, so the efficiency was not high, and the life was low.

Specific to the Qing Dynasty, diesel and gasoline were almost non-existent, and the Qing Dynasty imported kerosene for lighting, and it is said that there were also cars, but they also drank kerosene. If Li Zhigao wants to import diesel fuel from that world, he has to make a special explanation, and then import it separately, which will take a long time.

However, even if it is specially imported, it is not cost-effective to import crude oil in that world, not because the price of oil in that world is high, but because the oil in that world is settled in dollars and silver dollars.

According to Marven, at that time, the exchange currency between the silver dollar and the US dollar was about 2.4 to 1, and the import of crude oil from the United States into China, including the freight, a barrel cost six oceans, equivalent to 2.5 US dollars, and kerosene, a barrel cost eight oceans, which is only 3.3 US dollars a barrel.

Don't look at it is only a few dollars, but it was the dollar in 1910, if it is exchanged for the money of modern society, even if it is calculated according to 100 yuan a large ocean, six oceans is also 600 yuan, equivalent to 97.92 US dollars, far exceeding the average price of more than 70 US dollars in the international market for a barrel of crude oil, this is still crude oil, not directly usable fuel oil, so it is not cost-effective at all.

In short, in the era of 1910, importing diesel was time-consuming and laborious, not to mention, it was not cost-effective, unless you want to engage in petrochemical industry in the future, you can try to import crude oil, otherwise it is better to simply generate electricity or use it for your own various mechanical vehicles, it is better to buy it directly from modern society.

In this way, there are mobile board houses, household appliances, diesel generators, and diesel fuel bought 200,000 yuan, which is basically quite complete.

What else? Oh yes, and costumes!

The militia was not a regular army, and it did not have to follow the uniforms of Qing Dynasty officers and soldiers, but could play freely. Since it is free to play, it must be distinctive, and it is best to have your own unique style, so that you can be different, brand your own mark, and let people know that it is their own soldier at a glance!

It is not cost-effective to buy clothes from the Qing Dynasty, those handmade cotton clothes are expensive (buy with silver dollars), not to mention, they are not durable, and they will be worn out after a few uses, and buying chemical fiber clothes from modern society is cheap and wear-resistant, and they look good, which is the most suitable.

As for the clothing style, there is no need to bother, just direct student military training kind of clothing. In this way, Li Zhigao ordered a large number of four-color camouflage military training uniforms, which are the kind of military training used by students, which are super cheap, but they are also absolutely durable. This kind of military training uniform, a full set of clothing, plus shoes, backpacks, water bottles and whatnot, doesn't cost much.

In addition to the camouflage military training uniforms used for training, Li Zhigao also bought a lot of American-style Kuomintang military uniforms for acting in order to look good.

Those military uniforms are actually not the military uniforms of the Kuomintang in history, but later acted in movies and TV series, in order to look good, they made a modified version with reference to the American military uniform, and the foundation is still the American military uniform.

It is still very good to take off the cap badge and collar badge and other signs of these clothes, and use them as military uniforms, although they are not as powerful and domineering as the German Nazi military uniforms, but they are also beautiful and generous enough, and they are more suitable for China's national conditions.

I have bought so many clothes, and I am not bad for quilts, so the full set of military quilts has also been wholeed a lot, so a complete set is enough for 5,000 people.

After buying these things, the warehouse he bought was full, and after this purchase, excluding the money for investment immigration, he didn't have much money left, only about 500,000 change, of course, there were a lot of those gold jewelry and so on, but those who couldn't see the light for the time being.

In this way, after seeing that everything was almost bought, Li Zhigao took the time to go back and look at his parents, first took the initiative to say that he had resigned as a rural doctor, and then said that he had found a new job, which was in the import and export business, and the income was not bad, and he was going to South Africa, and he might not be able to come back for a while, but the development opportunities there were very good, and he could also talk on the phone, so let them not worry.

After that, he stayed at home for a few days, and when he coaxed his parents and saw that there was nothing going on at home, he returned to his warehouse, opened the ring again, and traveled back to 1910.
