Chapter 382: Peaceful Development (6)
Qiao Yu's special train is heading south, with the roar of the train, Qiao Yu's mind is also up and down, chaotic, can he bring such a huge country out of the trough of fate, can the people in this land win peace and happiness? Just like this long road, China has sunk for hundreds of years, and it may take several generations to really rise.
Not long after leaving Yanjing, Lu Wanqing suddenly turned around and left Qiao Yu's carriage, and soon walked in with a five or six-year-old girl in her arms, this little girl was very white, wearing a small floral skirt, looking plain and elegant, the little girl's face was full of timidity, the little brain melon was tightly attached to Lu Wanqing's chest, and a pair of big watery eyes peeked at Qiao Yu from time to time!
Lu Wanqing hugged Qiao Yu's eldest daughter Qiao Rui, but this little girl can only be regarded as an illegitimate daughter, and she has not been able to really enter the gate of Qiao's house, Qiao Yu's time is very tight, and even Qiao Luan can't meet often, let alone Qiao Rui's illegitimate daughter, now that I think about it, I am really ashamed of this daughter.
Qiao Yu hurriedly took his daughter from Lu Wanqing's arms, and her daughter naturally lay in Qiao Yu's arms, and her two little hands firmly held Qiao Yu in her arms.
"Thank you!" Qiao Yu gently kissed Lu Wanqing's cheek, making Lu Wanqing's face also red.
"Shunqing, if you don't let the Xue family's sister and Rui'er move to the Prime Minister's Mansion, I don't care about these, I feel sorry for her when I see the child like this, you as a father must always accompany the child well!"
"Hey! Wanqing, I can't help myself when I enter the Prime Minister's Office, I don't care about any reputation, but I don't want them to step into this circle of right and wrong, the first few days Zhu Qinglan also suggested that I send Qiao Luan to the army to feel it, their minds are no different from your father's people, I hope these children can have the ability to decide their own fate, instead of becoming the target of political forces, forget about this kind of annoyance! ”
Qiao Yu hugged Qiao Rui to the edge of the huge sofa, took out a handful of exquisite candy, opened the wrapping paper with his own hands, and sent it to Qiao Rui's mouth.
At this time, Qiao Luan also ran over from another carriage, the little guy was sweating profusely, and suddenly saw a little child in his father's arms, which was his own territory, tilting his little head and looking at Qiao Rui carefully, looking a little recognized.
"Luan'er, this is the sister Qiao Rui I told you, don't you remember?"
Sister? Qiao Luan's little head turned rapidly, as if he remembered something, and made a grimace at Qiao Rui, which made Qiao Rui burst out laughing, and soon there was no separation between the children, and they played together!
Since the Battle of Northern Burma, a large number of overseas Chinese in Nanyang have returned to invest in China, and Guangdong and Fujian are famous hometowns of overseas Chinese, concentrated a large number of overseas Chinese capital, of which Guangzhou is the largest, Qiao Yu went south this time, but also to give these Chinese a confidence, so that they can rest assured and boldly invest in the motherland.
Of course, there are a large number of overseas returned Chinese, and there are not many people who are qualified to meet Qiao Yu, this time the famous overseas Chinese leader Chen Jiageng personally came to see Qiao Yu, and he still values this patriotic overseas Chinese Qiao Yu very much.
"Mr. Chen, I have long heard that although you are in Nanyang, you do not forget the suffering of the motherland and enthusiastically invest in education, which is really a blessing for the country!" Tan Kah Kee looks like he is in his forties and looks very energetic.
"Prime Minister, you have led China to rise again, so that we, the overseas outcasts, have also seen hope, these years overseas Chinese have accumulated a stomach of bitter water, without a strong motherland as a backer, we will always be bullied, now that the motherland has defeated the British, we overseas travelers can also listen to the waist pole straight!"
"Mr. Chen carried out the reform of the national team education some time ago, and controlled the private capital to run the school, and the school you founded was also affected, Mr. will not blame it!"
"What did the prime minister say, when I ran the school because the country did not have this energy, and it was not for fame and fortune, now the country has taken over, naturally it is much better than me, I am too late to be happy, China is lagging behind in education compared to the West, I am also very excited to see the prime minister's investment in education, with your leadership, the country has hope!"
"I'm glad that Mr. Chen can think so, I heard that you have a lot of rubber plantations in Nanyang, right?"
"Thank you Prime Minister for your concern, there are indeed some, but after receiving all kinds of restrictions from the local political axe, it is always not easy to develop!"
"Then move to China, now the automobile industry is developing rapidly, the demand for rubber is increasing, and the country is also in need, I am ready to establish some rubber plantations in the area of Hainan Island, if you can become the first batch of rubber plantation owners, the country will definitely give preferential treatment!"
Rubber is an out-and-out strategic resource, with the advent of the mechanization era, the use of rubber is more and more, although China is close to Southeast Asia, the main rubber production area, but in the country to ensure that there is a proper production capacity is still very necessary!
Chen Jiageng heard Qiao Yu suggest that he move the rubber plantation to China, and promised to give preferential treatment, his heart is naturally happy, this is the best opportunity to make friends with the country, as an excellent businessman Chen Jiageng also saw China's huge potential, if you can enter the Chinese market as soon as possible, you will be able to get unparalleled benefits in the wave of industrial development in the future.
"Prime Minister, I will immediately arrange for people to go to Hainan for inspection, and as long as the climate permits, I will immediately move the rubber plantation to China!"
"Well, Mr. Chen, the next Nanyang will not be very peaceful, you might as well mobilize some Chinese businessmen who are really committed to the motherland to move back, the domestic investment environment will get better and better, the infrastructure will be more and more perfect, and the opportunities are huge!"
Not peaceful? Chen Jiageng is not stupid, Qiao Yu, as the prime minister of China, said this kind of thing to himself, doesn't that mean that China will take any action in Nanyang in the future, or that China has obtained some information? Either way, you have to pay attention to it.
"Thank you Prime Minister for reminding me, I will handle it carefully!"
"Mr. Chen, I would like to tell you another piece of news, China's two warships of more than 20,000 tons have been repaired, and they will be tested immediately, and they will visit Java within half a year.
As soon as Chen Jiageng heard the news, he immediately stood up excitedly, Qiao Yu's guarantee is too important for overseas Chinese, and since 1912, there have been large-scale anti-Chinese actions on the island of Java in the Dutch East Indies, and the Indonesian indigenous monkeys have launched a heinous persecution of Chinese businessmen under the banner of religion in the name of opposing criminal capitalism, among which the Indonesian Islan Alliance has played an important role, and the distorted and extreme doctrine has made these Indonesian monkeys kill the Chinese, Coupled with the instigation of the colonial political axe, the anti-Chinese action continued to rise!
Overseas Chinese have suffered heavy casualties and huge losses, and it is this huge loss that has accelerated the speed of overseas Chinese investment in China, and Qiao Yu's commitment to protect the Chinese by force at this time is too important for these suffering overseas Chinese.
Chen Jiageng bowed deeply to Qiao Yu, "On behalf of all overseas Chinese, I would like to thank the Prime Minister for his kindness, and I suggest that our warships not only go to Indonesia, but also to Singapore, Malaya, and Manila, so that those damned natives can see the mighty force of the Celestial Empire!" ”
Qiao Yu has long coveted the land of Nanyang, if China wants to become strong, it must not do without Nanyang, the industrial and agricultural resources in Southeast Asia can make up for China's resource shortcomings, and China can directly enter and exit the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean at the same time if it occupies the Nanyang, without being locked in the island chain, and cannot advance or retreat. Moreover, the rain and heat in Nanyang are abundant, and it can afford large-scale immigration, and the population of Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand, the Philippines and other places in later generations is close to or even more than 100 million!
Of course, the population of these areas is only a few million now, and the most are only tens of millions, if you can get your hands on it, it will be much more convenient to assimilate, so Qiao Yu has long planned to get involved in the southeast, and what he is waiting for is the development of sea power, without sea power, nothing can be done!
After meeting Chen Jiageng, Qiao Yu set off from Guangzhou, took a steamer and went straight to Qinzhou Shipyard, now Qinzhou Shipyard is already the largest shipyard in China, built into two 30,000-ton docks, and introduced a number of the most advanced shipbuilding machines from Germany, so that Qinzhou Shipyard developed rapidly, in addition to normal civilian ships, also began to build a large number of destroyers, torpedo boats and other small ships.
Of course, this is all for the accumulation of technology, but also for cover, at this time Qinzhou shipyard has gathered more than 300 German experts, they are all elite talents in the German shipbuilding industry, but also Seckert specially arranged, these German experts came to China through secret channels, their main task is to help China expand the shipyard, at the same time to build a variety of supporting factories, teaching Chinese scientific researchers and skilled workers.
Of course, they also want to use the Chinese site to experiment with new technologies, sum up new experiences, and bring these new technologies back to Germany when the time is ripe, so that Germany can keep up with the trend of the world's navies!
With the establishment of the Qinzhou shipyard, China's shipbuilding industry has finally improved, and the navy has hope, as the person in charge of the navy, Chen Shaokuan is naturally overjoyed.
"Prime Minister, it is too wise to cooperate with the Germans again, these Germans are deeply bullied by Britain and France, and they are holding a resentment in their hearts, they are also willing to hand over the most advanced technology to us, and without reservation, with their help, I dare to say that China's shipbuilding industry can progress for at least 20 years, I believe that as long as it is timed, it is not difficult to catch up with Xiao Yue's book!"
"That's the best, but the temporary positioning of China's navy is only a sabotage navy, that is, to break the maritime superiority of the great powers, I am most concerned about the issue of submarines, how is the construction work now!"
"Prime Minister, according to the drawing technology provided by Germany, we have built a total of two types of submarines, a total of four, the first of which we named the Qianlong A, with a displacement of 254 tons, an underwater displacement of 303 tons, a surface speed of 13 knots, 6.9 knots underwater, a cruising range of 1600 nautical miles, equipped with three 533 mm torpedo tubes, carrying five torpedoes, and having strong combat capabilities!"
