The businessmen of the industrial and mining enterprises are gearing up, and those speculators who plan to gamble in the south are also eager to try, but more people are led by public opinion, and they want to give themselves a good end for the rest of their lives.

Most of these people have been in Jixiang for a while and are familiar with Jixiang's policies and guidelines, so they have a bottom in their hearts about the life in the south.

The deadline was not far away, and all kinds of people began to pack up and assemble at Xingyao Bay.

The Guo family's transport fleet has grown a lot, and now it is mainly engaged in water and land transportation from Xingyao Lake to Xingyao Bay, and only has a little stock in the business of Feng Qiangzhi in the north and maintains a certain influence.

The river transportation from the Beixingyao River to Huyue was contracted by Feng Qiangzhi.

In view of his good relationship with the Cao Gang and his status as Hu Yue's son-in-law, the Government Council opened the door to permission and granted permission.

Feng Qiangzhi's company is called Northern Transportation, Hu Yue's royal court accounts for 20% of the share, the Guo family accounts for 10%, the auspicious royal family accounts for 10%, the Daxia royal family accounts for 10%, and Feng Qiangzhi and Princess Hu Yue account for 50%.

In this way, the company has been able to run smoothly, focusing on passenger transportation in the early stage, and plans to put it into freight next year.

The success of the first sea trade gave great encouragement to the mascot, and the joint venture shipyard of Guojia and Furui Wood Products Factory also officially started production in Xingyao Bay.

Since one side is a state-owned enterprise and the other side is a private enterprise, it is considered a state-controlled enterprise and is destined to enjoy great policy convenience.

In fact, the institute not only sent technicians to the site to assist in planning, but also provided a tougher alloy to make the keel.

The Ministry of Human Resources has placed high-frequency and large-scale recruitment advertisements to recruit talents from all over the world, which has endangered the owners of the shipyards along the river in Daxia, and they are eager to restrict their freedom as slaves.

Jijian First Bureau contracted the shipyard construction project, and devoted itself to the construction work with full enthusiasm and positive attitude, which also made many people see how terrifying the real construction level of Jixiang is.

The civilian shipyards in the Bay Area produce container ships that focus on freight, and the military has specially provided a complete set of design drawings, and subsequent improvements and upgrades will depend on their own efforts.

The original Liuyin River Shipyard still retains part of it, mainly producing inland river freight flat-bottomed boats, and the inland river passenger ships are handed over to the Hunan Navy Shipyard, which has completed the production of the third passenger ship and officially handed it over to the auspicious government.

These three passenger ships are responsible for the three routes from Jixiang to New Taipei, Jixiang to Hubei Development Zone, and Jixiang to Xinsong.

The routes from Xinsong to Hubei Development Zone, Xinsong to Xinbei/Hudong, and Hubei Development Zone to Xinbei/Hudong are still undertaken by passenger ships converted from old cargo ships, and will be gradually replaced in the future.

The auspicious government only plans to open one flight a day to various places, and the rest of the time and space will be ceded to the Guo family.

In addition to manufacturing warships and supply ships, the Bay Area Navy Shipyard will also produce large sea cruise ships.

The consideration of the Government Council is that once the southern continent enters a period of rapid development, the flow of people from the north and south will undoubtedly be huge, and it is not realistic to rely only on naval transportation.

In addition, there are many islands there, and it will surely become a paradise for pioneers and adventurers in the future, whether it is to communicate with the southern continent or with the auspicious mainland, ships are the preferred means of transportation.

As for hot air balloons, that's just for the rich and risk-takers.

If the Nakaba fleet can make new discoveries, the scope of maritime business will be larger.

Although Wang Xuan did not say that he wanted to privatize the shipping business, Zhang Yun knew that the increasingly huge military expenditure had stretched the inner treasury, and a qualified prime minister should see the situation clearly and take the initiative to share the worries of His Majesty, so after some internal discussions, he went to meet Xiao Hei and expressed the cabinet's views.

What the two talked about has not been reported, everyone only knows that it is related to maritime trade, but the details are not clear.

According to the cabinet's plan, all the sea trade was handed over to Xiangyuan to take care of, but Xiao Hei refused.

On behalf of Cheung Yuen, Cheung Yuen only accepts passenger transport, while freight transport is handled by the Government.

This is Concubine Shu's opinion, and Xiao Hei is acting according to orders.

"We can't take all the benefits, although this auspiciousness is our family, but we have to distinguish between public and private, the bulk of freight will be left to the government, and Your Majesty will have an explanation when he comes back." ”

After Zhang Yun was happy to do this, he ordered the Ministry of Commerce to make preliminary preparations and allocated 100,000 gold coins to order ten large cargo container ships.

The gross profit of this sea trade is 30 million, and the tax revenue alone is more than 300,000 yuan, and the government has money.

Coupled with the boom in opening the sea during this period, auspicious taxes are rising, otherwise there would not be such a crazy move as building two new towns at the same time.

If it weren't for Wang Xuan's words, the auspicious land would only be rented and not sold, and I am afraid that the treasury of the Ministry of Finance and Taxation would have been expanded several times.

In addition to government orders, orders from business alliances, foreign businessmen, and private organizations are also falling like snowflakes.

The shipyard is now full of energy, and there is no need for management incentives, and the workers consciously do things well, which is very worry-free.

Maritime trade has prospered the auspicious economy, not only driving the development of the construction, shipbuilding, manufacturing and service industries, but also accelerating the progress in the field of research.

Qian Duoduo of the research institute was planning the work schedule for the next stage, and he also received instructions from the south, along with which came several barrels of yellowed gelatinous liquid, as well as dozens of dirty but elastic films.

"This is a new product found in the southern continent, and according to His Majesty's letter, it can be made into a resilient and malleable product that is waterproof, windproof, and gas-leaking.

For example, it can be made into medical gloves to reduce wound infection, rain boots to prevent rain from damaging feet, storage bags to store liquids and air, and horse-drawn carriage wheels to reduce bumps and damage to wheels.

What's more, according to these properties, it can be machined into a seal......"

This last sentence is the finishing touch.

The steam engine was the first research subject that the research institute came into contact with, and it was also a subject that had not progressed, and the reason why it was stagnant was because the materials were not up to standard.

First, the body is bulky, and the weight of steel products increases greatly, and due to the poor processing technology, there are a lot of trachoma bubbles. In order to avoid explosions, the output power has been insufficient.

Coupled with the substandard sealing technology at the joints, a lot of power is lost during operation, making it a veritable chicken rib.

Nowadays, metallurgical technology is moving forward in exploration, although it still gives people a sense of distantness, but who can say that no one will have a flash of inspiration to solve this problem.

Now with rubber, sealing is no longer a problem, the power of the machine will be qualitatively improved, and the light has appeared.

The people in the steam engine research group can be regarded as having hope, and the venue was lively for a while, and they came forward to take a look at the so-called rubber products, and their mouths were still amazed.

"The bad news is that Your Majesty is not familiar with the specific processing method either, and we need to explore it ourselves. Again, if you want money to give money, you want people to give people, as long as you can get this done, you will have a share of the Royal Pioneer Medal. ”

The Royal Pioneer Medal, the highest medal in the auspicious scientific community, is the Medal of Honor that Wang Xuan only made up this year.

Needless to say, the most important thing for researchers today is not money, but honor.

Because in auspiciousness, honor can represent everything.

Living in a lake-view villa, the entrance and exit are guarded and protected, the children's schooling, employment and the state are in charge, even the spouse's work is clearly assigned, and some high-end places are only open to these people who are beneficial to the country, and at their level, there is nothing else except spiritual pursuit.

It is in response to the sentence in reality, those who have no money want to have money, and when they have money, they want to have power, and when they have money and power, they want to have something.

This explains Maslow's theory of needs vividly.

Wang Xuan's original intention is to encourage everyone to make persistent efforts, rekindle passion, and produce results as soon as possible through this incentive measure, so that he can reach his goal as soon as possible.

In the next few days, Qian Duoduo packed all the items Wang Xuan needed and handed them over to the Navy Logistics Department, so that they could be transported to the southern continent with the fleet.

As the departure date gets closer and closer, the auspicious business atmosphere is getting stronger and stronger.

It is clear to everyone that one step at a time is one step at a time.

It doesn't matter if you poop or not, the important thing is to occupy the pit first.

Therefore, under the guidance of public opinion, the original preparation of ten transport ships converted into passenger ships was not enough, and the Ministry of Commerce had to contact the shipyard and allocate two more transport ships that were being tested at sea to cope with the past.

This led directly to the fact that the fleet of ships in the secondary trade reached a terrifying twenty-nine.

These are big ships, and the world has seen this kind of battle there.

So soon, this news spread all over the upper echelons of Great Xia and Hu Yue.

Zhao Shengrui's newly bought set of blue and white porcelain tea sets was sacrificed gloriously, and the dazzling white of the fragments stimulated his nerves, and he couldn't stop talking to himself.

"It's impossible, it's a joke, a shipyard can produce ten large cargo ships in just a few months?"

"Is the world changing, or is God joking with me, where is my Zhao Shengrui not as good as that country boy?"

"Yes, he attaches importance to the people's livelihood, and I have also learned, although Daxia is now not disadvantageous, it can be a stable and happy residence; he attaches importance to business, and I have also built the business system of Daxia, and now I have successfully joined the maritime trade...... But why, why does he always crush me, always exceed my estimates......"

On this day, everyone in the Great Xia Palace was in danger, they didn't dare to breathe, they didn't dare to say big words, and even the guards on duty quietly moved a few steps out, for fear of harming the pond fish.

On this night, Wang Yue went to bed.

Hu Yue's royal court's performance was much better than that of Great Xia, at least there was no gaffe.

The so-called long-distance and close attack, Jixiang is separated from them by 108,000 miles, and if it is urgent, it is also the first urgency of Great Xia, and Hu Yue has enough time to come up with a countermeasure.

In the eyes of outsiders, Jixiang has two major advantages, one is the warship, and the other is the artillery.

Therefore, the Hu Yue people felt that as long as the waterway at the southern border was blocked, the mascot would not be able to threaten Hu Yue.

Moreover, auspiciousness has one of the most fatal flaws, there are too few people.

Although they have temporarily gained a foothold in the south, aliens are aliens, and it is not possible for the mascots to let them be used for their purposes.

To sum up, Hu Yue is not afraid of Jixiang's powerful shipbuilding ability, they are confident that as long as they do a good job of defense, they will not take the initiative to launch a close attack on other people's copper walls like Daxia did at the beginning, and they will be worry-free to protect themselves.

As for the land war, didn't you see that Great Xia only had self-protection in the north, and didn't dare to let Hu Yue people enter the customs?

As long as Hu Yue's iron horse runs, he can crush everything.

This is the self-confidence of Hu Yue people.

But they didn't know that the auspicious expedition fleet around the mainland had already set off, and it was only a matter of time before they found the estuary of the North Star Yao River.

This is crushing on the ideological level, and it has nothing to do with IQ anymore.

There is another point that has not been announced, that is, the auspicious people have exceeded 2 million now, and at this rate, 3 million next year is not a dream.

You must know that the main force of these new mascots is technical talents, and their family members have more or less some specialties, which is quite terrifying.

Now Jixiang has insisted on free adult education for more than six years, and there are education schools in factories, enterprises and other places, and some retired teachers are still playing a role in the front line of education.

This is an accumulation that cannot see the results for the time being, but once he breaks out, it will shock the world.

The essence of ethnic competition is the competition of resources, and as the most important item in resources, Jixiang has been far ahead in the field of human resources.

As the main driver of social progress, whether it is the public opinion guidance of immigrants to the southern continent, or the various prosperity related to maritime trade, or even the endless scientific research achievements of the research institute, there is the shadow of capital, which is silently promoting auspicious and continuous progress.
