Chapter 413: Layout Still short of money
As for the results of this call auction for shares, there is no one who is most happy than Jia Jingde and Song Zhewu and others.
Most of the funds obtained from the call auction were much more than the par value of the shares sold, and only 140 million shares were exchanged for 315 million oceans.
After deducting the par value of 140 million shares, there is a net loss of 175 million, which means that the Taiku Railway has made a profit of 175 million before the construction of the railway has begun.
This result not only surprised everyone, but also Song Zhewu, although he was very calm on the surface, but in his heart he was happy, this arterial railway with great military and economic value could be built without him spending a penny, how could this make him unhappy.
However, Song Zhewu was happy for a long time, and soon became worried again.
After dealing with the tricky matter of the Taiku Railway, Song Zhewu should have been very happy, originally thought that he needed to take out a lot of silver, but after Jia Jingde and Jia Jiying made such a mess, he didn't need to take out an extra piece of ocean to do it.
Although in the end, Jia Jiying still discussed with him and took out 11.25 million oceans. But that's the shares bought.
Ten years, no, maybe seven years later, the dividends of these shares will earn back the principal, and 20 years later, the 60 million steel rails held by the Northern Investment and Development Bank, including the 60 million steel rails held by the fraud, in exchange for a total of 21.66 percent of the shares, may be worth more than a billion, which is a good deal that is sure to make money without losing money.
In fact, Jia Jiying really wanted to take out more money to invest in the shares, after all, this is a great investment opportunity with a lot of profits, but Song Zhewu did not agree, which made Jia Jiying regret it for a while.
In the Fourth Route Army, Song Zhewu has only filled in money over the years, and only today is he really making money openly.
It is said that Song Zhewu should indeed be happy now, but Song Zhewu is not happy at all, because he still has something very important to solve, that is, he is worried about his immigration plan.
Although there have been continuous disasters and famines in China in the past ten years, the number of victims has been large and starving has been endless. However, Song Zhewu would never be able to accommodate 200 million people, let alone resettle the vast majority of people in Beimeng, thousands of miles away.
According to Song Zhewu's private calculations, if it takes ten oceans to settle one person, then 200 million people need 2 billion, and now if he wants to take out 200 million, he has to tighten his belt, and if he takes out 2 billion, then he doesn't want his "old life"?
However, it is imperative to do the matter of the border areas, and there must be no delay, and this is not only a matter of relief for the victims of the disaster, but also a century-old plan to stabilize the border areas and consolidate national defense.
At this time, there were only 350,000 people in Inner Mongolia and only 730,000 people in Outer Mongolia, and the Mongolian population of the two places together was just over one million, but the total area of these two places reached nearly 3 million square kilometers, with an average of only one person per 30 square kilometers of land, which is absolutely vast and sparsely populated. It is no wonder that Northern Mongolia has been constantly coveted by the Soviet Union.
If North Mongolia had a population of 100 million Han Chinese before World War II, it would be equivalent to the emergence of a new country with a population larger than Germany and France in the south of rich and vast Siberia.
Before World War II, even after it annexed Austria, Germany's total population never exceeded 80 million. Even the Soviet Union had a population of only 170 million. Until 40 years, there were only 79,133,000 people.
Wars are fought not only in terms of economy and weaponry, but also in determining the number of people.
There was a saying in later generations that any country that went to war with China, the United States, and the Soviet Union had little chance of winning, or that there was no chance of victory at all. Because they are all nations with vast territory, a large population, and a strong sense of fighting, even if the aggressor side is finally defeated, it will be a victory with extremely heavy casualties.
The advantage of population numbers, because of the high degree of scientific and technological development, may not be the decisive factor in the war in a few decades, but in the period before and after World War II, this is the truth that determines victory or defeat.
It is said that the Soviet Union killed more than 46 million people during World War II, including 24 million military deaths, of which 4 million prisoners of war were shot. If the Soviet Union did not have a large population base, even if it had American support for weapons and supplies, and so many people died, it would not have had the men to build a sufficient army, let alone use American weapons to continue World War II.
If Northern Mongolia really achieves 100 million people, not only will the Soviets never be able to take away Northern Mongolia, but on the contrary, they will have to be on guard against Song Zhewu at any time to rob him of Siberia.
In fact, Song Zhewu's appetite is indeed very big, but Song Zhewu will not tell anyone now. However, when Song Zhewu needs it, if he does not have enough people to use, it will be very difficult for Song Zhewu's purpose to be realized.
Song Zhewu is fully aware of the significance of Shibian, and he is absolutely aware of the important surname that he has a large number of human resources that can be used in Beimeng, and the only thing he is worried about now is the problem of funds for immigrating to Shibian.
The so-called 200 million victims during the Republic of China actually appeared in the late 20s to the late 40s and 20 years. Song Zhewu estimated that there would be about 100 million victims throughout the thirties. Naturally, these 100 million disaster victims will not all be willing to immigrate to Northern Mongolia, because the Chinese have a very strong sense of locality, and some people would rather ask for food than go to the bitter cold land of Northern Mongolia.
So, even though there were 100 million victims, it was actually very good that 40 years ago, 70 to 80 million people migrated to Northern Mongolia.
But with a population of 80 million, this is not a small number, and this is by no means something that Song Zhewu can afford casually.
However, fortunately, these victims did not appear in a concentrated manner within a year, but gradually appeared in a few years, and there is also the fact that these disaster victims who are willing to emigrate do not have high requirements, as long as they can survive, it doesn't matter if the conditions are temporarily difficult, that is to say, to resettle these victims, Song Zhewu will take out a maximum of 100 million a year.
In Song Zhewu's memory, in fact, not only will there be floods in the Yangtze River this year, but in fact, floods have occurred in many river basins across the country, and there are many people, but the floods in the Yangtze River and Huai River basins have caused greater harm.
The construction of the Taiku Railway, the construction of roads and urban construction in Beimeng, the reclamation of farmland, the construction of water conservancy facilities, etc., all require a lot of manpower, and these victims do not need Song Zhewu to take out all the real money to help, as long as they are assigned corresponding jobs, and their families are gradually resettled in Beimeng, they have jobs, and they can naturally support their families by themselves.
However, the long-distance migration of these victims and the construction of housing in Northern Mongolia had to be paid for by Song Zhewu, and it was a big problem to transport the victims and a large amount of cement and other building materials to Northern Mongolia.
Before the railway was built, it was necessary to use trucks to transport people and supplies to Northern Mongolia, and it was a large number of trucks.
You know, this is a journey of thousands of miles through the Gobi Desert, and it will not only take a long time to transport it by cart, but also the cost of eating and chewing horses will be higher.
And the most important thing is that the capacity of the cart is too small, even if there is no need to transport building materials, just to transport personnel, transporting 10 million people, it will take 2 million, that is, the whole Shanxi and North and South Mongolia are concentrated, at most there are 100,000 vehicles, Song Zhewu will never find 2 million cars.
There was no way, the car factory in Taiyuan had not yet been officially put into operation, so Song Zhewu had to spend a few more million dollars to buy trucks and construction materials, all of which had to be prepared before the floods occurred.
But the rest of the funds also have to be raised, although the Northern Investment and Development Bank presided over by Jia Jiying still has money, but those money Song Zhewu can't use easily, those are his family funds, and they are also the capital he has accumulated for the Anti-Japanese War.
After thinking about it, I can only find a way to get money, and it is a lot of money.
If you want money, you can only focus on Xinghua.
In fact, Song Zhewu has prepared many means to make money, but many methods need a long process to be effective, and far water will not quench the thirst of the near.
Song Zhewu had no choice but to take out the super baby nylon in advance.
As early as Laiyuan, Wang Mingyang has developed the treasure of nylon under the "careful" guidance of Song Zhewu, but the development and production are two different things, if you want to carry out large-scale industrial production, you must have the corresponding industrial production equipment and specific industrial production process, this is not like the pig's feet in the previous life to see the pig's feet in the novel, immediately like a trick, as soon as the upper skin touches the lower mouth, things will continue to come out.
Exploring the process of large-scale industrial production and developing production equipment made Wang Mingyang work for a whole year.
If this matter is placed in Europe and the United States, it is estimated that it can be completed in half a year, because there are enough technical talents and technical strength there. And this thing has now been partially proven.
and DuPont Co., Ltd. built a joint venture specifically for the production of nylon in the United States. The production equipment of DuPont Chemical United Co., Ltd. is based on the production line designed by Wang Mingyang and others, but DuPont engineers quickly put forward an improvement plan after reading the drawings of this set of equipment, and it is said that the improved production equipment and technology will greatly improve the production capacity and efficiency.
