Vanderbilt proved to be a former steamship king, and even though he sold a large part of his steamship business, the connections he had accumulated in the industry allowed them to transport Chinese laborers much faster than the Ming Dynasty.

By mid-January, the total number of Chinese workers at the railway company had reached more than 80,000.

Although it is a far cry from the 200,000 people in the contract, it is a rather terrifying number, and the number is constantly increasing.

Jiangsu alone has a population of nearly 40 million, and Anhui, the hometown of the Huai Army, also has a population of 36 million, plus the hungry people from Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Henan, Hunan and other places who fled the famine and came to the mouth of the Yangtze River, the population of this era is simply outrageously cheap.

In the original Pacific Railroad Center, there were about 14,000 Chinese laborers, many more Irish and other white laborers.

The Chinese workers performed much better than them.

And now, [the Tripartite Railway Company] is almost entirely Chinese labor, and its productivity has skyrocketed.

Originally, the Pacific Railroad in the middle of the course took about three years, but most of that time was spent in the Salt Lake Desert and the Sierra Nevada.

As a result, the Xinfeng-Omaha rail line is expected to be completed by June this year.

Zhu Fugui came in a hurry this time to personally meet with the representatives of the Restoration of Sight in the ranks of Chinese workers.

The so-called Restoration Party is not a real political party, but only a tool to mobilize the masses under the control of Jinyiwei.

Because the use of these Chinese craftsmanship is beautiful, but there is actually a hidden danger.

That's the pretty good treatment that the [Tripartite Railway] gave them......

Of course, it's not a good treatment, it's just that they can eat enough, but for that alone, they are likely to be grateful to Dade.

But the object of gratitude is likely to become an American capitalist or Li Hongzhang's Jiangsu governor's yamen.

This is unacceptable to Zhu Fugui no matter what.

Further, because these Chinese workers are not miserable enough, it may lead to the fact that when the Ming Dynasty adopts them in the future, their loyalty will not be so high.

Before the Ming Dynasty shipped Chinese workers from overseas, one was counted as one, all of them were hungry, bitter and hateful, and they were very good at work.

Under the Manchu Dynasty, especially after the impact of the long war, the people at the bottom were not necessarily much better than the slave labor in North America, to be honest.

At most, it's a bit free.

But in these years...... Freedom is a piece of!

Therefore, the Ming Dynasty absorbed these immigrants who had just crawled out of hell, and naturalization was simply twice the result with half the effort.

And now, these Chinese workers have come to the railway company, if they are asked to fill the road pits with their bones as in the original history, Zhu Fugui can't bear it.

But taking benefits in vain, but not remembering the good of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Fugui is also unwilling.

Therefore, at the beginning, Zhu Fugui asked Yin Weasel to select a group of Jinyi guards who were good at ideological work and mixed into the road construction team.

With them as the backbone, a party for the restoration of vision was developed.

It was up to the Restoration Party to negotiate with the Vanderbilt family and the eagle dogs of the governor of Jiangsu's yamen for the welfare of the workers.

Of course, another role of the Restoration Party is to expel the good money from the bad money, and to squeeze out strange sects such as the Hongmen, the Heaven and Earth Society, and even the Worship of God Sect.

The program of the Restoration of the Ming Party, the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, has reappeared in the world, the Great Tomorrow will lead everyone to live a good life, only by supporting the Great Tomorrow, can everyone be full of warmth, the old have something to rely on.

Because of this, a strange thing happened......

"Oh, my dear Master Wan Sleep, long time no see, is my poor daughter doing well?"

In the blue slab building of the railway company, Zhu Fugui saw Donald who had gained a lot of weight.

I don't know if it's an illusion, Zhu Fugui feels that the people around him will always become fat inexplicably.

Donald was already a fat man, but now he looks richer.

I don't know how he became the general manager of this railway company......

Isn't it corruption and bribery?

Zhu Fugui looked at Donald suspiciously, the Jews did not have a good reputation in this regard.

Donald, who had already learned to figure out the holy will, hurriedly said: "Oh, my great master of ten thousand sleeps, don't look at me like this, the accountants of the household department, and the knights of the brocade guard are all staring at me!" I'm overworked! ”

Reluctantly believing Donald's words, Zhu Fugui carefully asked about the specific circumstances of the matter.

It turned out that, as Zhu Fugui had guessed before, Li Hongzhang, the human spirit, would naturally not give up taking advantage of the opportunity of this tripartite agreement to reap the benefits of expanding his strength.

Unlike Zeng Guofan, who is old and frail and wants to be a saint of the Guardian Sect, Li Hongzhang's ambition and courage are very great.

Four years ago, in the battle of Bali Bridge, Seng Lingqin led 30,000 Mongolian cavalry and 30,000 infantry soldiers to engage the British and French forces, and was defeated, with thousands of dead and wounded.

The French lost only 3 killed and 17 wounded, while the British lost 2 killed and 29 wounded.

With such a record in the past, while the southern Han landlords were afraid of foreigners like tigers, their reverence for the imperial court in their hearts was more or less shaken.

Therefore, this time, Li Hongzhang returned to China with a huge sum of 600,000 taels, and in addition to deducting 120,000 taels as the military expenses of the Huai Army and the Hunan Army as agreed, he did not mention the 15% stock in the [Tripartite Railway Company].

Li Hongzhang bypassed the imperial court and directly sent his henchman Wang Dajing as a representative to follow the second batch of road construction Chinese workers to the railway company to work.

That's where Donald came to ask for instructions on how to deal with him.

The easiest way, of course, is to sink directly into the New Yellow River, and it doesn't matter if the black cauldron is wanted by whites or Indians.

However, Zhu Fugui rejected this proposal after thinking deeply.

"Sangui, Li Hongzhang, my ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, Dashou, can't despise his messenger, we should use money to gag his mouth, use beauty to grab his handle, and use him as a dark line between us and Zu Dashou."

When Donald heard this, he scratched his head and said, "Master Wan, except for Lady Julie and her maid, we are all men here, how can there be a woman to confuse him......"

"If you don't have it, you will go to the foreigner's town to buy it, or go to the sect to recruit it, do you want my good family of the Ming Dynasty to do this kind of thing? Remember to invoic! Zhu Fugui glared at him, and raised his foot to kick his ass.

Donald shrunk his neck and hurriedly slipped away.

He is such a smart person, he naturally knows what Wan Sleepy Master means, and the reason why he asked knowingly is just to ask for Wan Sleepy's last sentence.

Invoicing!

It's good to issue invoices, but if you don't issue invoices, don't you have to pay the money yourself?

The Pingxi royal family has no surplus food......

But then again, who is this Zu Dashou?

He and I Sangui, who has a higher status?

With such confusion, Donald ran away.
