After solving the small problems on the Yangtze River, Cheng Pan once again presided over the construction of Taiwan. Now that Cheng Pan's reputation is great, some things are convenient. For example, buying a ship and recruiting shipwrights, because the cultural exchanges between the East and the West were very frequent at this time, mainly the wealth plundered by the Mongols from the Han Chinese, and the money was spent on a large and small amount. According to the Han people's instinct to hoard food inherited from their ancestors, it is absolutely necessary to produce goods out and gold to come in. The Mongols, on the other hand, did not have the character of a miser, and they spent money indiscriminately. Therefore, the sea trade in Jiangnan is still reached, there are a large number of ships and shipyards, and now Boss Cheng has taken a fancy to it and bought it with silver. Local officials have actively cooperated. Ready-made boats, craftsmen all packaged and sold to Cheng Pan. Now the consensus in Jiangnan is that the plague god is leaving, and everyone can only push it, don't stop him from making himself unhappy. Fortunately, Cheng Pan paid the money very neatly, and the officials along the coast of the south of the Yangtze River can now make a fortune. The cooperation between the two sides is very pleasant. It is often Cheng Pan who falls in love with the shipyard, and then the government is directly responsible for "public relations". The official government of the Yuan Dynasty "public relations" hehe, shipyards are often opened by Han people. These government offices can be said to be directly robbed. Find a reason to directly send the owner of the shipyard to prison. But these factory owners have high attainments in shipbuilding, and they all rely on technology to save their family business, and they can be regarded as senior engineers in shipbuilding at that time, and they finally got it out for Cheng Pan. Under the brutal persecution of the Yuan Dynasty government and the lure of Cheng Pan's banknotes. These senior shipbuilding engineers came to Cheng Pan's coastal territory one after another, and Cheng Pan spent a lot of silver in the process.

But for Cheng Pan, the problem that can be solved with silver is not a problem. As long as Cheng Pan finds a luxurious temple in the middle of the night to drill, it will be tens of thousands of taels. After half a year of predatory exhibitions, Cheng Pan's ocean-going fleet expanded to 6o large ships with a displacement of more than 5oo tons, of which eight were self-built large flying shear ships in the territory, and most of the rest were wide-bottomed ships bought by Tongguò. At the same time, 4o pits used for shipbuilding have been excavated on Chongming Island, and tens of thousands of recruited shipbuilders have begun to enter the work after a simple study of the manufacture of clippers. I have to say that the shipbuilding masters who came from Jiangnan this time have a very high level, and they began to learn independently after seeing the new type of ship such as the clipper. At the same time, with good encouragement, these new boatwrights used their rich experience to point out the improvement of the clipper. Increased performance of the hull.

Since Cheng Pan's foundation, the situation of the Central Plains has gradually deteriorated. Fortunately in 1339, Zhou Ziwang's rebellion was extinguished within a year. Although it was the reason why the Yuan army was very strong, on the other hand, the number of people who could not survive due to the poor harvest at that time did not grow. Hermes-Epitek has only suffered **, and the natural disaster has not yet come. But then in the next few years, natural disasters came, first in the north, God gradually picked on the door, and the water was scattered less and less, and then this summer the Yellow River began to flood. At this time, the number of displaced people began to increase. You must know that the current Yellow River is seized from the Huai into the sea, and the mouth of the Yellow River is in the Yellow Sea. As soon as the Yellow River flooded, the entire northern Jiangsu was also affected. The number of displaced people has increased. At this time, Cheng Pan took the initiative to contact the local magistrate and decided to transport these displaced people to the sea. For local magistrates, the homeless people are a scourge, and so is Cheng Pan, and they go to sea together, which is a happy thing. As a result, Cheng Pan's immigration work was not hindered in any way. A large number of refugees came from the north. By the end of 1344, 2o people had been resettled in Taiwan, all of whom were recruited from Henan, Shandong, northern Jiangsu, and northern Anhui. The capacity and food supply limits of the territory have been reached. Wait until next year's bumper grain harvest in Taiwan and the launch of a new batch of ships. The degree of immigration needs to be accelerated.

Cheng Pan now has to pay attention to currency. Money has no value in itself as a general equivalent, but it is an essential in human production. It plays the role of a lubricant that promotes the production of human labor. For example, two beggars, A has one dollar, and he pays B to help him cut his nails, and B finishes his work. Feeling that his head was long, he paid the money to A again and asked him to cut his head. Eventually, the money went back to pocket A. But both of them enjoyed the service, both of them worked, and both of them created value, which is the role of money in it. As a science student, Cheng Pan has always looked at the financial problem of making money with colored glasses, believing that those who engage in finance are all unearned. Now Cheng Pan has always focused on improving productivity in the territory exhibition. He has always held a suppressive and inattentive attitude towards the financial industry, and has only done one useful thing in the financial sector at this time, that is, to implement small low-interest loans to the people in the territory, and cooperate with the policy of seizing casinos to completely kill the usury industry from the root.

But now the stall is too big, and Cheng Pan's shortcomings of not paying attention to economic circulation have begun to appear. The biggest reason that forced Cheng Pan to change was that Cheng Pan now had no food. That's right, Cheng Pan is short of food. Due to the need for large-scale immigration, Cheng Pan has now run out of food. But Cheng Pan has no food in his hands, and the people in the territory still have food in their hands. The food in their hands is hoarded year after year, which is a waste. When new grain becomes old grain, not only the quality becomes less, but also there is always a little loss due to insects and rats due to a long period of time.

Cheng Pan decided to use financial means to lend the food of the people in the territory. Cheng Pan set up a grain lending institution to exchange a kind of bill for the grain of the people in the territory. Saving for a year has a half-percent interest rate on grain. Due to the bad reputation of the Yuan Dynasty treasure banknotes. Cheng Pan did not have the confidence to exchange a piece of paper for food in the hands of the people in the territory. The common people were deceived once by the Yuan Dynasty, and they were very cautious about the same things. Cheng Pan himself believes that he does not have the charm of TG, and at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, he could let the people of the whole country dedicate themselves to the construction of the country.

Therefore, Cheng Pan's bills are not made of paper at all, but precious metal plates pressed out by hydraulic presses. It is divided into gold, silver, copper, and iron, and there are four metal plates made of these four metals. These four metal plates, which can be said to be currency, have four sides of the pattern on them with edge text to prevent being edging, which is definitely exquisite in this era. Among them, gold bills can be exchanged for first-class rice in grain stores (in order to facilitate the borrowing of grain, Cheng Pan classifies the grain finely and divides it into grades according to standards), silver bills can be exchanged for huàn 1oo kilograms, 10 kilograms of copper, and 1 kilogram of steel. Of course, if the bills of the peasants in the territory are borrowed by the local administrative group from the local people, they can take the paper bills issued by the local administrative group and present them at the local grain store when exchanging huàn grain for huàn and receive interest. Of course, in the New Deal Group and the grain store that borrowed grain, there are special ticket inspection equipment, once the length, width, thickness, fineness, and weight are not right, it is impossible to give counterfeit money room to survive. At the same time, the bills that have been deliberately worn are also not redeemed.

Since it is not a fluffy paper ticket. Cheng Pan also disclosed and fixed the fixed material of the bill at the same time. Such IOUs began to be accepted in the territory, although the grain borrowed was more than the price of the note. However, with interest and the credit guarantee of the New Deal Group, Cheng Pan's regular grain storage business was carried out relatively smoothly. After all, Cheng Pan didn't expect to make money in finance, and only carried out the business of regular storage of grain for a year. Cheng Pan's food restrictions on resettlement have been eased a lot. Under the auspices of the government-level power of the New Deal Group, which was founded by Cheng Pan, large quantities of grain were lent to immigrants who had landed in Taiwan. The same intimidation education is also to be carried out, and if the grain is not returned after two years, there will be a shortage of miners in the Keelung coal mine. Exaggerated propaganda about the harsh conditions of working under the leather whip. Although Cheng Pan is soft-hearted, he understands the mentality of the little citizens very well, and in order to prevent unhappy things in the future, he sued them for the consequences of being strict to dispel the signs of taking advantage of them.

The originally displaced migrants were very satisfied with the status quo that they had just been fed and survived, and they could divide the land in a few years, and they had no objection to the rules set up by Cheng Pan. A year later, nine out of ten immigrants have paid off their debts. There are also some families who have not paid due to disasters and diseases. After a brainstorming process, it was publicly announced that the New Deal would delay the repayment of these families and the reasons for clearing the arrears owed by these families. So there are no lazy people who were thrown down the mine because they were lazy. At present, Keelung Coal Mine still uses high-paid miners and criminals.

If we look at it from a socio-economic point of view, Cheng Pan's territory is very fast, but it is very abnormal. A large amount of money flowed into shipbuilding, steel, and maritime transportation. The peasants' harvest was good, but it was plundered by industrial scissors, and the workers had a lot of value, but most of the company's shares were controlled by the administrative group, and the workers received absolutely less wages. The people in the entire territory basically fluctuate a little bit on the food and clothing line. A large amount of capital is arranged by the administrative group. Of course, the administrative team did not put the money into its own pockets, and under the supervision of the representatives elected by the producers, it was invested in the above-mentioned industries. In the long run, from a national point of view, this is the fastest way to industrialize. Although after the full development of industrialization in the future, after the production of too much wealth, there will be such and such problems, but

Today's industrial productive forces are still in their infancy. There will be no problems such as overproduction and waste of materials at all. Nowadays, as long as the product is produced, it is immediately consumed by society. That's right, this is the national system. TG adopted this system and exploded the atomic bomb 16 years after the founding of the People's Republic of China at a time when there was a dire shortage of industrial personnel in ruins. Although there were reasons for Soviet assistance, it was enough to show that this system was a shortcut to industrialization. Under the condition of ensuring the people's food and clothing, the wealth generated by the whole society is fully operated in the basic industries such as iron and steel, chemical industry, machinery, and education. Without the consumption of capital fighting with each other, without the waste of labor in the production of luxury goods that maintain the atmosphere of the petty aristocracy, this generation in the territory is a generation dedicated to the exhibition. Historically, the British Industrial Revolution sacrificed the generation that lost their land and was driven into the factories during the enclosure policy, the American Industrial Revolution sacrificed the generation of workers with an average life expectancy of less than 40, and when the Civil War ended, the free black slaves were now working in factories worse than slaves on the plantations. During the Industrial Revolution, Japan sacrificed a generation that was worse off than the Chinese civilians at that time. The Industrial Revolution always had to be sacrificed. Cheng Pan can only ensure that everyone is fair and dedicated in this process, and no one will be selfish in this process.

Now all the people have no complaints, no one has the consciousness of being exploited, at least the people in the territory can keep food and clothing. There is a comparison of the hellish rule of the Outer Mongolians in the territory, and everyone is very satisfied. It is now a critical time to run in small steps, and once it breaks out of the cocoon, the industrial society will override the entire era.

From the current stage, steel is running at a loss, although the iron products sold to the people are at a high price, but the majority of steel consumption, such as shipbuilding, the production of mechanical parts and the 2o kilometers of railway extending from Hezhou to Chaohu Lake, are sold at low prices.

In the early days of shipbuilding and immigration, it was a loss, and the Western people made money in the early days of the Great Voyage by opening up the road to the sale of goods in the Chinese civilization circle. As for the current Cheng Panshang Nafinda area, although there are Han people on the islands of the South Seas, there are not many people, and there is not even a big city. And in other parts of the South Seas are the kingdom of Indonesian monkeys, squeezing oil from them, except for grabbing a little gold, what else can there be, besides, the tropical rainforest is a paradise for all kinds of bacteria, and Cheng Pan, who feels that he is short of people, does not dare to waste manpower here. What Cheng Pan lacks now is not gold, but food. So nautical is throwing money at it now.

But the voyage still gave Cheng Pan some surprises. In the sea, there are often small islands that are the foothold of migratory birds. Migratory birds excrete on it, which is equivalent to natural dung accumulation, and Cheng Pan remembers that the British Empire seemed to have fought a war for a small saltpeter mining island in Chile. Cheng Pan paid attention to this detail and began to send people to send ships to find such a person, and the hard work paid off. Finally found it for the exploration team. Judging from the current map, this small island is in the southern part of the Satsuma Domain, and with the current productivity of Japan, navigation is a joke, and Cheng Pan naturally incorporated this small island into his own territory. As Cheng Pan, who came from later generations, he named this archipelago as the Diaoyu Island Group, and each island in the island group was named No. 1 Diaoyu Island, No. 2 Diaoyu Island, and No. 3 Diaoyu Island.

With the saltpeter mines of the Diaoyu Islands as the foundation, Cheng Pan's nitric acid industrial capacity shortcomings can be regarded as making up for it. With more nitrate-producing islands like more fishing islands being spotted in the sea. Soil fertilizers began to appear. This is a boon for the farmers in the main base in Huangzhou, where there are many people and little land. The grain output of the main base in Huangzhou has broken through the bottleneck that has been lingering for a long time and has begun to increase.
