Great Entrepreneur of the Universe

Chapter 271 The Chosen One

Wang Shouliang, Cao Yun and Bai Xiuzhu, spent a week in Baoan New District inspecting the first and second shipyards, automobile factories, coastal defense fort clusters, residential areas for the families of factory workers, and other important projects. , or arrived at Yau Ma Tei Stone Mansion on New Year's Day, 1907.

New Year's Day is not a traditional Chinese holiday, but now that the west wind is prevailing, the festive atmosphere is pretty good.

When they arrived, the entire Stone Mansion had already been... deserted, but the security and maintenance of the nearby streets had been improved by several levels.

Ma Rulong, Hong Tianci, and Zhuo Yifei who were waiting at the door quickly came over as soon as they saw Wang Shouliang's motorcade. Ma Rulong laughed and clasped his fists in salute, "A Liang, I learned that you were coming, and my dad started to go out to stock up the day before yesterday. Ingredients."

"I will definitely have a good meal today and celebrate the festival together."

The foyer of Shi Mansion will be deserted on New Year's Day. That's because the news has spread, and non-important people will not dare to come and disturb you today.

Wang Shouliang got out of the car and patted Ma Rulong on the shoulder, "You are the father of three children. You are getting more and more promising as the days go by. Congratulations."

Under his words, Cao Yun took a step forward with the gift box and said, "Brother Long, on the birthdays of Zili and Ruyun, as well as the full moon wine and the hundred-day banquet, Brother Liang didn't come over. This is a specially made gift."

As early as December 1904, 12, Ma Rulong and Shi Aihua gave birth to their eldest son, Ma Xiaohu. Then in May 29, Shi Aihua became pregnant with their second child, a twin of twins. In March 05, the Ma family's second son, Ma Zili, and their daughter, Ma Ruyun, were born.

He made phone calls, sent telegrams, and sent people to deliver gifts.

Really, before unexpectedly learning that Cao Yun had beat Bai Xiuzhu to become a member of the Wang family in November 06, Shi Aihua had considered more than once whether he should have another child in the future and change his surname to Wang or Shi.

He is responsible for the distribution of houses and coordinating the purchase of living materials for ordinary people in various places. He has great power and great influence. He is one of Sihai Group's top oil and gas bosses and face bosses.

When Sihai's business is on track, there will be no need for temporary instructors like him.

When Cao Yun gave the gift, Bai Xiuzhu smiled sweetly and sent a congratulatory gift, "Brother Long, I have also prepared a good gift for my sister-in-law. Don't dislike it."

Ma Rulong and Shi Aihua were happy, and they felt like small fireworks in the world under the rolling tide, which flickered and disappeared.

Tang Xiucai, who worked with him back then, is now one of the deputy directors of the Sihai Escort Bureau. Not to mention the authority over more than 4000 people, Tang Xiucai is mainly responsible for logistics, ranging from issuing guns and allocating personnel to the Escort Bureau and the Security Department. vehicle.

He was the first to work for Sihai Group.

There are too many major events of all kinds.

When Shi Aihua greeted Bai Xiuzhu and Cao Yun to come in, Wang Shouliang smiled, scattered cigarettes for Ma Rulong, Zhuo Yifei and Hong Tianci, and joked, "Lao Zhuo, do you regret not following me all the time?"

She already has three children, Ma Xiaohu, Ma Zili, and Ma Ruyun. If she gives birth to another child, it shouldn't embarrass Ma Rulong if she succeeds? !
Fortunately, her cousin turned out to be normal.

There are also plans for the development and construction of Kalimantan Island, layout plans for industrial development in various places, expansion of the Sihai Escort Bureau and the Security Bureau...

Speaking of this, Shi Aihua looked at her cousin with a strange expression... As early as the spring of 05, when Bai Xiuzhu was arranged to come to Hong Kong to study, she thought her cousin had finally figured it out.

Chaos returns to chaos, as long as Wang Shouliang, the cousin, is still a normal male and likes women, that's fine, that's fine, at least the Shi family and the Wang family won't be cut off from each other.

The two little guys are now 10 months old.

Before Ma Rulong said anything, Shi Aihua had already walked out of the Shi Mansion with his daughter in his arms, and came to Bai Xiuzhu's side with a look of surprise on his face. "Xiuzhu is here. It's the biggest surprise that you are here. Why are you disgusting?"

In the earliest days, when the Sihai Escort Bureau was just established, Zhuo Yifei not only served as a temporary military training instructor, but also went to Yangcheng to help drive the branch.

Wang Shouliang has of course been to Hong Kong Island for such a long time, but most of the time he was still busy in the oil fields of Sumatra, farms in Hunan, Zhejiang, Anhui, Jiangsu, Shandong, Henan and other places, doing disaster relief and so on.

Isn’t this development a bit chaotic now? Bai Xiuzhu came of age last year, and now she is 07 years old on New Year's Day in 15. Why hasn't she entered the Wang family yet? !
How did Cao Yun pop up between these two people? ! Does Bai Xiuzhu not care?

Although the person I have fallen in love with is relatively young, he will soon become an adult.

Zhuo Yifei, on the other hand, earned a lot of money from training a group in the early days. After working for a while, he ran away and went to live his small life in a debauched manner, eating, drinking, playing cards, and being a groom every night.

Zhuo Yifei smoked a cigarette and smiled bitterly, "Thank you, the boss, for remembering me and asking Aaron to call me to come and make a living. I regret it. I really regret it."

"But thanks to the care of the big shopkeeper, and with your reputation, even if I eat and drink with Zhou Yongling, I don't lack for good meals and drinks, so I can live a smooth life."

"If the big shopkeeper needs it this time, feel free to ask. I'm also a little envious of Aaron's happy family and good life."

If Wang Shouliang hadn't spoken up and asked Ma Rulong to call someone, neither Zhuo Yifei nor Hong Tianci would be qualified to visit on New Year's Day.

Hong Tianci also said hurriedly, "Senior shopkeeper, I am the same, just give me whatever you find useful."

Wang Shouliang nodded, "Now our group's personnel transport ships depart from Bao'an New Area, Yangcheng, Fujian and Zhejiang, and can reach the Sarawak and Sibu bases in Kalimantan Island in as fast as one week and as slow as ten days and a half. "

“In the last three months of 06, tens of thousands of people have been transported in. For the time being, there is military control by brothers from the deputy operations office on land. But when Siwu is developed and becomes a new large city, police control will definitely be required. "

"I plan to make Siwu a metropolis with a population of one million in 07, and the police system will be established. You will mobilize a group of police from Hong Kong Island to help me?"

"Godsend, are you still Assistant Agent now, or Detective Hua? When you get to Siwu, you will definitely be promoted to Chief Inspector or even Superintendent level within a year."

At this stage, the total population of Hong Kong Island is only about 60. It is not that there is no space, but that it is short of water. Before the establishment of a super large-scale water supply project directly from the mainland to Hong Kong and Kowloon.

Too much population can really cause big problems.

Kalimantan Sarawak and Sibu bases do not have this problem. After all, Sibu is built along the Rajang River with a total length of more than 600 kilometers, and is a river plain city!
Without the water source problem, all development will be vigorous and dramatic, and violence will lead to overtaking in the later stage.

Of course, Sibu and even Sarawak as a whole are not without some shortcomings. For example, Sarawak has many tropical rainforests. The dense rainforest means heavy rainfall. There is basically no drought there, but it is prone to flooding. When carrying out agricultural construction, floods must be paid attention to.

There are also 2400 million acres of rice fields in Sarawak in the future, but the general fertility of the fields is insufficient because the entire island naturally lacks micro-minerals required by some crops. But these can all be improved!
Whether it is water control or fertilizing farmland, transporting bird droppings to fertilize, or adding fertilizer to pond mud, these are all operated by human functions!

Correspondingly, Sibu, Sarawak is basically not affected by typhoons. For example, Sabah in the north of Sarawak is known as the land under the wind and will never be affected by typhoons. The situation in Sarawak and Sabah is similar.

Typhoons, including earthquakes and even tsunamis, rarely hit these areas.

Because of major disasters such as typhoons, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, etc., they were basically blocked and blocked by Sumatra, Java, and the Philippine island of Luzon...

For example, Indonesia is rated as a country of volcanoes and earthquakes. There are more than 10,000 archipelagos with alarming volcanic eruption rates and many earthquakes, but most earthquakes spread to southern Kalimantan.

Sarawak is in the west of Kalimantan, across the sea from Singapore, and Sabah is in the north across the sea from Luzon.

The Philippines, which has a population of more than 20 million in the future, experiences at least typhoons every year, making it one of the countries most frequently hit by typhoons in the world.

However, the Philippine islands are also like a natural barrier, blocking all typhoons from Sarawak and Sabah.

There are no earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis or typhoons. The biggest disaster is that it rains easily and floods easily, and the arable land is a bit insufficient...

Others are just missing people!

Since ancient times, the Chinese nation has never been weaker than anyone in water control. As long as a large number of people migrate there, infrastructure is built well, and water control projects are implemented, Sarawak, starting from Sibu, can feed millions or even one or two thousand people. It will be really easy. , more than enough.

Just like in the original trajectory, even the southern island of Kalimantan, which is still affected by earthquakes and other disasters, has developed a population of 10 to 20 million under the rule of Inni.

Sarawak and Sabah, which belong to Malaysia, are really...the chosen ones.

Various eras and comprehensive influences have made it difficult to develop tropical rainforests and fail to rise.

The simplest factors were the work of the Chinese land reclamation corps. As soon as the white people achieved results, they would grow opium, then tear up the contract and expel people. There were also the outbreak and impact of World War I and World War II, and various overall constraints after the war.

Based on the foundation that Wang Shouliang has built, he has been working hard on construction since 07. This land of choice, which is blocked by many archipelagoes from natural disasters such as typhoons, tsunamis, and earthquakes, is the biggest pearl in the South Seas.

And the transportation is convenient, tightly controlling the Strait of Malacca! Regardless of shipping or air transport in the future...it's all very promising.

Heng Lun regards Sarawak and Sabah as rural areas with no people and lack of human resources and infrastructure. Moreover, Heng Lun already controls Sing Kapo, the Straits of Malacca and the Malay Peninsula. With the pearl that Heng Lun controls, there will be no It is necessary to continue to build Sarawak.

It is only 1400 nautical miles from Hong Kong Island to Sibu Port. Before the Titanic hit an iceberg and sank, international shipping basically operated 24 hours a day. At a speed of 10 knots, a passenger ship could cover 240 nautical miles in a day.

Arrival in one week and return in two weeks! !

When Wang Shouliang and his party entered the yard, they saw Cao Yun and Bai Xiuzhu having fun teasing Ma Rulong's two sons and one daughter. Shi Xidu was wearing an apron and showing off the feast, and at most came over to smoke a cigarette and drink tea.

Standing in the exquisite garden, he chatted with Zhuo Yifei and Hong Tianci for a while about Siwu's large-scale development and land reclamation plans. Wang Shouliang said again, "The tens of thousands of people who passed by last year were all strong men, mainly engineers. , responsible for the construction and expansion of seaport terminals.”

"Repair coastal defense forts, as well as the dock area and the road connecting Sibu City. This must be at least a two-way eight-lane road, and build bridges to allow cars and trucks to run freely."

"This spring and summer, it was only in Foshan, Bao'an, and Shanghai that batches of old power plants, cement construction plants, etc. were led by masters. They did not expect to develop the steel industry in the early days of Siwu, but they built houses, built roads, and opened up water and electricity. , that’s it.”

In the early stage, he did not expect to achieve self-supply of food, mineral resources and steel in Sibu and Sarawak. That was unrealistic.

His farm granaries in the Pearl River Delta, Yangtze River Delta and North China are progressing step by step, and he is already building confidence. Grains from North America, Thailand, Vietnam and other places can also be transported to Siwu without interruption.

You can buy iron ore!
Speaking of, the area around Sibu, Sarawak, passing through the Karimata Strait, Java Sea, Timor Sea, etc., is Australia! This distance is about the same as the distance from Siwu to Shanghai, but the iron ore in Australia...

Australia, which made a fortune by selling iron ore in the 21st century, seems to have not yet discovered the high-quality bare iron ore mines in Western Australia? Okay, forget about the Australian iron ore.

Again, if you are looking at Malacca in Sibu, it is easy to buy iron ore to develop the steel industry. You will not be afraid of shortages if you spend money!
With Wang Shouliang's narration, not to mention Zhuo Yifei and Hong Tianci were excited to hear it. They wished they could not miss the Spring Festival and directly follow the shopkeeper Wang to travel to Nanyang. Ma Rulong said excitedly, "Ah Liang, how about I and I Are you going to Sarawak and Sibu together for development?”

"If you stay on Hong Kong Island, the most you can do is Inspector Hua or Chief Inspector Hua. There is no such thing as an inspector level."

"Besides, with your Sihai Escort Bureau's land force, the police force has long been an auxiliary police force. I have nothing to do except crazy about reservoirs and protecting water sources all day long."

"If Sibu develops into a metropolis with a population of one million in the future, and there will be a large number of people passing through the Strait of Malacca to come in and out, and it will be used as a source of tourists, then the police force will have to be at least about 10,000, right? This plan is to build a police force of tens of thousands The system is a great cause!”

In 1907, there were only 700 to people in Xingjiapo, which was not much more than the original Hong Kong Island. The area was small, just over square kilometers.

This is quite different from the expanding Sibu Seaport and the planned two-way eight-lane new city rushing towards the urban area of ​​​​the inland river plain.

The new city occupies not only 1000 square kilometers of the inland plain, but only 3000 square kilometers. It is a large area and can be planned arbitrarily. There are now scattered plantations, Chinese villages, and tropical rainforests to be developed.

How should I put it? The inland river plain city in Sibu is similar to the urban agglomeration of the future capital of South Korea, Seoul, in the Han River Plain. The current planned city location is the model from Seoul, the capital of South Korea, to the large port of Incheon.

It is an eight-lane cement road constructed together with the river transport of the Rajang River!

Once the flood discharge and waterproofing measures are completed, it will be the Pearl of the South Seas.

Under Ma Rulong's words, Wang Shouliang joked nonchalantly, "As long as you are willing to let Aihua and your three babies go, you can go if you want. After all, it's not that far a week's journey one way by sea."

Zhuo Yifei and Hong Tianci were also extremely excited. Chinese people are more or less agitated by certain infrastructure factors, especially when they plan to build a metropolis with a permanent population of millions from a situation that is basically zero?

The aspects involved are really too huge, and they don't have much ability, but using their background and referring to Yalun's modern model to create a police force system with tens of thousands of people is very exciting.

The fleet, the giant ships and cannons, and the operations processing office of the Four Seas Escort Bureau on land. One unit has 13,000 people, and three units can give you a full sense of security!
