Chapter 498: The Rebellion in the Polynesian Islands

"Well, these are all customized by our own factory, you don't need to know where they come from, but you need to know how to use them, now we are in wartime, the efficiency of digging with a hoe is too slow, these machines are the main force of our construction, of course, you have to learn how to use it first." Jiang Cheng patted one of the excavators and said.

"Great, with this, we can build the base much faster!" Chen Guoping said excitedly: "Mr. Jiang, you can take a good look, we will definitely build our military base as soon as possible." ”

"That's it, Mr. Jiang, you see, we promise to learn how to use these machines in the shortest possible time." The worker representative next to him also patted his chest and said.

Jiang Cheng hummed and said, "I'll give you half a month, this sharpening knife is not a mistake to chop firewood!" In this half a month, you have to learn the use of these machinery, 24 hours of non-stop practice, to many people in a car, I will continue to transport such construction machinery, when the time comes, can not be because of the skilled use of people are not enough to cause me to buy the machinery here ashes. ”

Chen Guoping said firmly: "Please rest assured Mr. Jiang, we will never cause the construction plan to be completed one day late because of our reasons." ”

In fact, half a month is not a long time for mastering these machines, and even a little too short, but Jiang Cheng has no choice, so he can only familiarize himself with them while operating them on the spot.

Jiang Cheng smiled with satisfaction, at this time, the ship from Lianyungang also began to dock, a group of soldiers and officers walked down, many people softened as soon as they landed, their ancestors had been digging on the land for generations, it was difficult for them to adapt to the water at once, God knows how many times they vomited along the way.

"Chief 203, finally meet." Chen Qihan saluted Jiang Cheng and said, Jiang Cheng looked at his pale face and saluted back and said, "Don't call me chief, I'm twice as small as you, I'm sorry, I've worked hard all the way, look at your appearance, I didn't vomit." ”

Chen Qihan hurriedly said, "This is not good, the chief is the chief, I still call the chief, but this ship is indeed powerful, but it is good to rest for half a day." ”

Jiang Cheng shook his head and said, "This is outside, and not many people know my identity, so you can also call me the owner, this is overseas, there are many foreigners, we must pay attention to confidentiality here, and the chairman has also explained some things to you, right?" ”

Chen Qihan nodded and said, "The chairman said that when I came here, I would do more work on island protection, and Comrade Zhang Aiping would take on more responsibility for the formation of the navy." ”

Jiang Cheng nodded and said, "I think so too, the chairman is very thoughtful, in addition, there is Mr. Chen Guoping from Nanyang, he is the son of Mr. Chen Jiageng, he has a lot of business experience, the climate in Nanyang is also very similar to here, he can make a lot of suggestions, and Zhu Wei, he is a local aborigine, there are many locals and foreigners here, we must respect their customs at the same time, strengthen communication with them, these people support us and resist us, will make our work here completely different." ”

Chen Qihan hummed and said, "I understand, I will strengthen cooperation and communication with them." ”

Jiang Cheng was very relieved of the working ability and consciousness of these old revolutionaries, they were all people who had worked under various difficult circumstances, not to mention that in fact, the situation in Polynesia was not bad, at least in terms of materials.

Soon, the Polynesian Islands welcomed groups of guests, overseas Chinese and Chinese Red Party forces from all over the world gathered here, and the French people such as Hill were extremely shocked to build military bases quickly, from barracks to hospitals, from airports to ports, from air defense positions to batteries, and quickly established in the Polynesian Islands, but at the same time, discordant voices gradually appeared.

Colony - European Western civilization since ancient times has a geographical term, modern colonization can be from 1415 Portugal occupied Ceuta, the colony's mode of rule is actually to occupy a variety of local natural resources, and then by the local aborigines to do grassroots work, colonists as middle and upper rulers, at the same time, in order to reduce the local aborigines' resistance, will allow some local natives to enter the middle and even upper classes to help rule, specifically you can look at the Indian racial system, Due to their industriousness and small number, the Chinese were often used as shields and middle-level forces by the colonists of the Western colonies around the country, deliberately causing conflicts between the local natives and the Chinese.

"General Hill, you must come out and say something, we have been warned by the farmers and mine owners that if the number of Chinese continues to increase, they will go to Paris to sue us! You won't be able to get out of it when the time comes. A big-bellied French bearded man shouted with a cigar in one hand and a table in the other.

"That's right! What do these Chinese want to do now that they are opening new plantations everywhere? Whose colony is this? It's us France! It's not them China! Another man shouted loudly, looking hatefully at the red flags flying outside Hill's office, the supposedly Chinese company flags, God knows if these people had anything to do with those damn Red Parties.

"And those Chinese also went to those indigenous stockades and said that the proletariat should be united, that they should unite! Who are these people? Their arguments are simply the Red Party!! A fat man exclaimed angrily, "If your government and army don't come out to take care of it, what will happen in the end, I can't say well, Australia has had things before." ”

"Don't mess around!" Hill hurriedly shouted, Australia, another overseas country where Chinese gather, is also a country that introduced the "Chinese Exclusion Act" 30 years earlier than the "Chinese Exclusion Act" of the United States, of course, he was not a country at that time, since Bendigo Exclusion of Chinese in 1854, there have been three large-scale Chinese exclusions alone, each time accompanied by blood and violence, local white thugs burned local Chinese houses and tents, destroyed local Chinese shops, and then surrounded Chinese like cattle and slaughtered, the record at the time said, A white absentee of European nationality returned home from the riot with a flagpole tied to eight whips, the front of which was a bloody scalp.

Hill naturally knows these things, he trembles at the thought of what may happen, others don't know, but he knows how terrifying the strength of that Chinese is, those so-called security teams that come from unknown places, all are elite infantry, if these fat pigs really dare to encourage the local natives to riot, I am afraid that the final slaughter is not the Chinese, but these fat pigs and the local aborigines.

Hill waved his hand and shouted, "Listen to me, damn it, the situation is nothing like you think!" First of all, our country has already been occupied by Germany, Marshal PΓ©tain will also listen to Germany, and the heads of these Chinese have a good relationship with the Germans, even if you go to Paris, there will be no change, and how much will your interests suffer? They don't seem to have invaded your plantations at all. ”

Several people looked at each other, making eye contact, and one of them got up and said, "Since General Hill is unwilling to come forward, then we can only solve it ourselves." ”

In fact, this is Hill is not clear, although the Chinese did not encroach on their plantations, but opening up new plantations means that there are new competitors, and they are very clear about the ability of the Chinese, doing business is not bad, and farming is even better, they can only work on their plantations, but now they have their own plantations, and they will naturally choose their own plantation work, in terms of work efficiency, the Chinese and the indigenous are like two creatures, and those indigenous workers also have new choices, With your eyes closed, you can expect that the labor will increase later, and these are all losses.

Hill grabbed one of them and said, "What do you want to do?" I want to tell you that we are no longer in the French army, but the Chinese mercenaries, and if you do something that makes it difficult for us, we will not be able to help you. ”

"Humph! Traitor! The fat man snorted and swaggered away, Hill scratched his head anxiously, rang for a long time, and finally decided to report this matter to Jiang Cheng, otherwise I don't know how big a mess it will be.

"Oh? There's such a thing. Jiang Cheng was basking on the beach in the Hawaiian cedar of later generations, and he was thinking about whether to let Yu Yishan come here to enjoy it together, when Hill came to report to him the movements of the white French.

"Boss, I want you to meet those people, otherwise, there will likely be a riot." Hill said urgently.

"Sit down, Ciel, don't be in such a hurry." Jiang Cheng waved his hand and said, Zhang Ye next to him had already placed a stool, Hill sat down helplessly, Jiang Cheng took a breath and said, "In this way, I will send someone to tell those people, as long as they can cooperate with us, we can promise three things, first, we will not occupy this place forever, as long as the war in Europe is over and France regains its independent power, we will leave here, and in the end, only the Chinese who originally lived here will continue to stay." Second, we will not encourage local indigenous people to strike or leave their plantations or factories. Third, I bought all their output, and the price was 20% higher than the market price. ”

Hill said excitedly, "This... This is really good, thank you to the owner, I believe that such conditions are enough to make them satisfied. ”

Jiang Cheng snorted, and after Hill left, Zhang Ye said, "Boss, are we suffering too much in this way?" ”

Jiang Cheng sneered and said, "You underestimate people's greed, people, you are most dissatisfied, if Japan only occupies the Northeast, and then operates with peace of mind, what do you think the current situation will be like?" Wait, they'll jump out on their own. ”

――

"Wahahahaha, I thought that mysterious Chinese was so powerful, it turned out that such boldness, isn't it soft now? However, this Chinese seems to be really rich. "The fat Frenchman touched his beer belly, his name was Owen, his eyes were full of greed, he was not only the local plantation owner, but also the deputy chief of the police department, someone had a gun in his hand, and he was rarely arrogant, and the chief was a man of civilian origin, and he had no property here, and he was hollowed out in many things.

"So are we going to just leave it at that?"

"I think it's about the same, he's willing to pay a premium for our stuff anyway."

Many plantation and mill owners expressed their willingness to accept such conditions.

"Fart! Can you guys have some brains? Owen snorted, "According to our insiders, they've already shipped thousands of people, do you think they're just here to repair the house?" I tell you, these people won't leave when they come, they are just using rhetoric to impress us, and then they will attack us! ”

Saying that, Owen looked at everyone viciously and said, "Think about it, now we sell all our things directly to them, and when he says no to it one day, we will have no right to speak at that time, so we can only beg him, so we must not be fooled like this!" ”

"So what do you say you should do?"

"Only by completely driving out those Chinese can this Polynesian archipelago belong to us, now the Paris government is incompetent, I think we can completely govern ourselves when we drive them out!" Owen said with a twinkle in his eyes.

"Autonomy?" Everyone looked at each other, and something called ambition burst out in their hearts, if autonomy can really be achieved, then can their descendants be masters for generations? For the sake of future generations - fight!

The undercurrent began, the natives of the Polynesian Islands didn't feel much at first when they saw the increase in these strange and familiar yellow people, anyway, life did not change, but because of the large number of buildings to be built in the local area, a lot of employment opportunities were added, and at the same time, the arguments of those Chinese, after thinking about it, it also felt quite reasonable, we all went on strike together, wouldn't there be no one to do anything, so naturally the French would be forced to raise their wages..... But why work? Isn't it nice to sing and dance, and you won't starve to death anyway.

But soon, all kinds of arguments began to spread from all over the country, that these Chinese people did not believe in God, that they had come here to blaspheme the gods, and that the gods were about to bring disaster to the islands. What is why the local natives are poor, it is because the job opportunities and wealth are taken away by the Chinese, if there are no Chinese, those Europeans will have to hire the locals, then there will be money. All kinds of arguments against the Chinese are circulating among the indigenous tribes, especially when these natives watch these Chinese build houses, build bases and open up plantations everywhere, and those native Chinese are also happy as if they are celebrating the New Year, although these natives do not understand why, but they intuitively feel that the status of the Chinese in the Polynesian Islands has been greatly improved, and the evidence is that the French nose, which was originally extremely fierce towards the Chinese, is now very polite when he sees the Chinese.

Why is that? Why is that? Shouldn't the status of the Chinese be similar to ours? That's not going to work!

Some indigenous chiefs gathered and demanded an explanation from the French authorities for an explanation of this phenomenon and demanded that the Chinese be expelled from the Polynesian islands, believing that the Polynesian islands were the property of the gods and that the Chinese should not be involved, and that they wanted to expel the Chinese, only to be told by the local French that "this is your private conflict, we will not take care of it, you better solve it yourself."
