Next, Yu Xiaotian inspected the workshops of the entire Tamsui City one after another, and now Tamsui City is still in the climax of large-scale construction, and various workshops are constantly being built, and most of these workshops no longer belong to the weapons institute, but most of them belong to the workshops of people's livelihood.

For example, garment workshops, leather liao, brick kilns, lime kilns, woodworking workshops, car workshops, porcelain kilns, sugar liao, mills, etc., have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, or are still under construction.

But the severe shortage of labor here at the beginning of last year has been largely alleviated by this time, not only because of the forced coercion of immigrants from the land over the past year, but also because of the slave trade, which has allowed the sea wolves to acquire a large number of slaves and supplement the ranks of this heavy manual labor.

In the past, when the sea wolf carried out many constructions, it had to draw from the immigrants and serve labor everywhere, which was also the usual method of the land government, which brought a heavy burden to the common people, and even caused many people, because of the labor sent by the government, to make their families bankrupt, and even die in the labor service.

However, if the sea wolf wants to build Tamsui City, it will inevitably need a lot of labor, and the little manpower in the hard labor camp alone is not enough, so it can only take the method of drawing soldiers to serve in labor.

However, Yu Xiaotian still made strict regulations on this matter, the smoking must be fair, and the large households cannot rely on the power to bully the small households in the same village, not out of the Ding or less Ding, to avoid labor, so that the burden of the Ding is transferred to the small households in the same village.

In addition, it is also stipulated that the period of labor is limited to three months, and when the time is up, the laborers are immediately repatriated, let them go home, and a new group of people will continue to work, so as to avoid the labor of the family being occupied by the sea wolves for a long time, causing their farmland to be abandoned again, or causing their farmland to be left untended and seriously affected.

In addition, the sea wolf does not completely use these labors for free, and gives a certain amount of remuneration and compensation to these people who are drawn out to serve in labor, and the problem of food is also borne by the sea wolves, although the wages are not as high as those of the craftsmen in the workshop, but it is better than the labor sent by the government on land, and they do not give a penny to the laborers, and even the laborers have to bring their own food to the government for nothing.

In this way, the matter of the sea wolf pumping labor is relatively not dissatisfied with the immigrants, and there are some immigrants who are willing to take the initiative to serve in the slack time, so that they can earn some wages, and they can also save part of their rations, because the sea wolf is in charge of food.

However, after all, this will still have some negative effects on agriculture, especially when the farm is busy, and the laborers are not very comfortable working, and they are worried about the agricultural affairs in their own fields.

Moreover, the framework of Tamsui City is very large, and there are too many places that need labor, and it is obviously impossible to meet their construction needs by relying only on such forced labor.

What's more, there is no modern machinery to help in this era, and many slightly larger projects need to rely on crowd tactics and invest a lot of manpower to complete, and human resources are always stuck in the bottleneck of sea wolf construction.

Although the immigration matter is currently going on fairly stable, after all, recruiting immigrants from the land, collecting displaced people to move them to the sea, and transporting them to the island of Taiwan, although the government has turned a blind eye, it does not mean that they can let the sea wolves do whatever they want.

The government and the court are still very resistant to this kind of thing, this kind of thing can only be carried out in secret, and can not be loud and open, when there is no famine, a large number of immigrants are not easy to do, and the common people are very fond of the land, even if they do not have their own land, tenant rent the land of rich families, live a miserable life, as long as they are not on the verge of starvation, they are not willing to easily change places to make a living, fear of the future, so that they would rather stay at home and live a hard life, will not easily follow the sea wolf to the island of Taiwan.

What's more, the reputation of Taiwan Island is not good, even if it is a person who knows the island of Taiwan on land, it is often rumored that Taiwan Island is a barren land, full of miasma, and there are barbaric aborigines who eat life, so under normal circumstances, when it comes to Taiwan, even many poor people who can't even eat shake their heads and are unwilling to go to Taiwan Island!

For this reason, Yu Xiaotian came up with a solution, that is, to solve this problem through the slave trade, historically before and after the Industrial Revolution, as well as when colonizing, most of the labor needed in Europe was also solved through the slave trade.

And there is still a serious problem on the territory of the sea wolf, that is, the problem of serious imbalance in the ratio of men and women, most of the people in the sea wolf tribe are singles, and there are not many people with their families, when some people come to do this, they can't even afford to wear pants on land, let alone marry a wife and have children, most people come to the sea wolf for food, at most it is good to bring their parents, and the wife does not dare to think about it.

There is also such a problem among immigrants, some bold bachelors, with a certain adventurous spirit, anyway, a person who eats enough for the family is not hungry, and he comes to be an immigrant with the mood of trying it out, so there are many singles among the immigrants.

In the past, these people couldn't eat enough, and naturally the demand for women was not strong, but now after they are on the territory of the sea wolf, especially those guys who have entered the military system as soldiers, they are full of food one by one, and they eat well, and they have a lot of physical exercise every day, and gradually one by one Ryoma is in spirit.

When the body is good and the food is full, the male hormones will naturally be secreted more, so they start to think about women, but there are few women on the island, and the discipline is strict, so these guys can only rely on their left and right hands to solve the problem.

But the left and right hands to solve the problem, to have full imagination, some people have a lower point and make do, but some people have a higher point, it is easier to have problems.

In this regard, the sea wolf used to rely on prostitutes to solve the problem, first someone came to Nanri Island to open a brothel, and then some prostitutes on land or free wandering warblers, heard that Nanri Island had a good business, so he found a way to come to Nanri Island by boat and started a business spontaneously.

Yu Xiaotian also had to pay attention to the matter of prostitutes, stipulating that all prostitutes who went to the sea wolf territory to do business must undergo regular physical examinations, and if someone was found to have a venereal disease, he should immediately stop business, either repatriate to the land, or cure the disease first.

But there are still problems with such a method, and there are still people who continue to win bids, and in the Seawolf Hospital, when there are no large-scale conflicts, STD patients account for a large proportion of the wounded.

Therefore, finding a way to find a wife for the sea wolf tribe has become a problem that must be considered, and if the sea wolf tribe can get a wife, it will also be of great benefit to the stability of the sea wolf, so that after the tribe has the concern of the family children, they dare not easily rebel, even if it is for their own family, they have to work hard to keep the current sea wolf's territory.

But women are always a difficult problem to solve, and some immigrants have been brought in through the forced abduction of Tianqi for five years, and the proportion of women among them is okay, but it still can't solve the problem of more monks and less porridge.

So the slave trade became a solution to the problem, and last year the sea wolf released a message to his peers that the sea wolf was willing to buy slaves, but if anyone took the population and it was useless, they could sell it to the sea wolf, and the sea wolf would pay the slave according to their health, age and gender.

When the pirates themselves go to the land to attack and harass, they will habitually forcibly tie up meat tickets, and the rich will have people who take money to redeem the meat tickets, but the poor who have no money, they are useless to stay, women will be used as their tools to vent their desires, and they will sell them when they are tired of playing, and young and middle-aged men will stay and do some coolies for them, or forcibly coerce them into the gang, which is actually not of much value.

But now the sea wolf is willing to buy these useless meat tickets, which gives the small group of pirates in the same industry an additional way to make a fortune, so in the second half of last year, there are north and south counterparts, and began to ship some meat tickets to Nanri Island that no one redeemed, and sold them to the sea wolf as slaves.

The sea wolf divides the slaves into several grades according to gender, age, and health, and the young woman will subdivide the price according to the degree of beauty, and then pay cash to buy these meat tickets, even if it is a child who is basically not wanted, it will be accepted together, but the price is lower, and even some elderly people, the sea wolf will also accept it at a low price, which is considered to give them a way to live.

If the sea wolf didn't want it, these pirates wouldn't have transported it back to the land and released it, so they would have killed it directly, or thrown it in the sea, so the sea wolf took these people and saved their lives.

Originally, the Seawolf Council was in charge of this matter, and he was not enthusiastic about accepting the elderly and children, and he didn't want these people, but Yu Xiaotian still let them buy them at a low price, not all because Yu Xiaotian's conscience was too good, but because these old people were mostly good at serving the farmland, as long as they ate better, their physical condition was not too bad, and they could do farm work for many years, and they were also experienced, and the yield of crops in the farmland they served would be higher.

As for the children, needless to say, these are all materials that can be made, as long as they are treated well, these children will naturally become an important pillar of the sea wolf when they grow up, they are helpless, they know little about the outside world, a few years later, even if the sea wolf lets them go, they have no way to survive on land, they can only follow Yu Xiaotian wholeheartedly, which is more conducive to the cohesion of the sea wolf.
