Chapter 266 Teahouse Incident (Third update, please subscribe)

Family matters can never be explained clearly.

The doting girl who originally kept saying "That's my daughter" quickly gave up.

Sometimes, people do have to accept their fate.

Uncle Guo accepted his fate.

In other words, he figured it out. For the uncle who only had three daughters, his daughter's words made him think through a lot.

It wouldn’t be bad to have a grandson named Song!

In the next few days, Uncle Guo has been accompanying his daughter. As a doting lover, he will certainly not let his daughter live in the dormitory again, nor will he let Li Yian arrange a house for his daughter. He is so poor Someone who counts money?

As a result, Uncle Guo directly bought an area of ​​one square kilometer on the Yunhai Plateau, near Nanyang University and its research institute, and commissioned an architectural firm to design several villas.

At the same time, after inspecting Sandakan and the industrial park, I directly bought a street in Sandakan - the one under planning, with only roads repaired.

I have to say that as an investor, Uncle Guo is indeed very discerning. That street is located next to the future main road of Sandakan. Even if it is a auxiliary street, with the prosperity of Sandakan in the future, the land and housing prices will be inestimable.

And right now those lands are actually cheap.

After learning the news, Li Yian just nodded slightly and said nothing.

What's there to say? If a grandpa buys a street for his grandson, can a father still say "no"?

But soon more arrogant news came. Uncle Guo was going to build a building on that street.

“It turns out it’s more than just a street!”

While feeling emotional, Li Yian had to admit that his cheap father-in-law was indeed very discerning.

Ok!

Such large investors should always be welcomed.

The myriad of tasks consumes a lot of Li Yian's energy every day. After entering the new year, the construction of Borneo has obviously accelerated a lot. After all, with the advancement of infrastructure construction, the equipment accumulated in Tunisia can finally be Shipped back to Borneo and installed.

Although the fleet still needs to detour through Australia to reach Borneo, the speed of construction is always advancing. Most of the time, Li Yian's job is to check the progress of the project.

Now he is more of a company boss than a ruler. His biggest concern is investment. After all, the future of Borneo lies in industrialization.

That evening, after reading the last shipyard construction progress report, Li Yian finally relaxed for a while. The so-called relaxation was just reading the newspaper.

There are too few entertainment activities these days.

Picking up the newspaper on the table, although the Secretariat has a special briefing, he still likes to understand the outside world through newspapers. In this era, newspapers are almost the first-hand source of information. Although they are artificially processed, they can generally understand the outside world. Have a certain understanding of people's lives and ideas.

Among these newspapers, there are not only major newspapers such as "Chinese Press" and "Nanyang Times", but also small newspapers such as "Yangcheng Daily". As in the past, Li Yi'an reads the small newspapers first and then the major newspapers. Why is this?

Because major newspapers are run by the government, it is inevitable that there will be words praising virtues, but such words are much less common in tabloids.

Suddenly, a report in the newspaper made Li Yian frown and his face became very ugly. "Special tea room - so shameless!"

From the article, I can see that the text is very passionate, almost like a battle, pointing out that the special teahouse is operating as a brothel in the name of teahouse, accusing the chief executive's office of disregarding the dignity of women, in fact, in order to harm women, openly supporting businessmen to open brothel. The language was very sharp and full of fighting power, except that it did not say that the Office had established public prostitution.

With a snort, Li Yian put away the newspaper and directly picked up the phone in the office.

"Take the news!"

Ten minutes later, Ding Changjie from the Information Department arrived. As soon as he entered the office, Li Yian asked.

"Have you read the news in Yangcheng Daily?"

Li Yian asked without raising his head.

"seen it already."

Subconsciously, Ding Changjie understood which report Chief Li was referring to.

"What do you think?"

"A humble position..." After thinking for a while, Ding Changjie said.

"It is human nature to be in a humble position because of food and sex. That reporter Jiang went too far in criticizing him like that. However, Chief Li, this person has always been known for looking for gimmicks. This is the case in China. That article " "Kumamoto Atrocities Record" was written by him."

The so-called "Kumamoto Atrocities Record" refers to the fact that the military not only razed Kumamoto City to the ground indiscriminately, but also committed a large number of atrocities.

Li Yian was originally extremely angry about this matter, which made him, who was already extremely angry, say angrily.

"Justice? Revenge! What's wrong with revenge! Thirty percent of the people in the Sixth Division are from Kumamoto. They can carry out a massacre in Nanjing. What's wrong with us taking revenge!"

Li Yian said sternly.

"Has he been to Nanjing to interview surviving compatriots? Has he been to Kumamoto to interview frontline soldiers? Revenge! If not revenge, why go there!"

Taking a deep breath, Li Yian said,

"Originally, I only thought that such people were just trying to gain fame, but now it seems that such people are shameless! They make unreasonable comments about Kumamoto, and they do the same for us here!"

Li Yian raised his head and said.

"Do you know why the special tea room was established? Do you know who the waiters in the special tea room are? Do you know who they serve?"

After several rhetorical questions, Li Yian said angrily.

"Forced girls into prostitution...Has he ever been interviewed? Let him tell you which one of them was forced!"

The reason why Li Yi'an was so angry was because of this sentence - in order to ask for taxes, the Office of the Commissioner allowed profiteers to force girls into prostitution.

How could Li Yian not be angry at this label?

"From Zamboanga to Sandakan, the first thing I did when I arrived was to supervise the brothels. Chinese women in the brothels must be released unconditionally, and Chinese women are prohibited from engaging in this industry. Who are they forcing to be prostitutes?"

The reason why Li Yian was angry was not just that, but the condescending attitude of some people.

"There are now 400,000 single men in their prime in Borneo. Until the problem of women is solved, they are in need. If you insist on criticizing all of this from a moral perspective, you are just nitpicking and ignorant of the sufferings of the people!"

In Sandakan and all Nanyang cities, brothels are a normal existence because there are a large number of single Chinese workers. This kind of institution, which is officially considered legal, has its historical inevitability and also satisfies the physiological needs of countless single Chinese workers. on demand.

What can Li Yian do?

They rescued the compatriots among them, established an inspection and epidemic prevention system, and at the same time strictly prohibited compatriots from engaging in this industry. In order to standardize management, they created a "special tea room" to cover it up, and the waiters inside were all foreigners, mostly Filipino women.

"As a reporter, you cannot go back to the root of the problem and see the root of the problem. Instead, you are distorting the facts and confusing others for your own selfish interests. It is really shameless!"

Taking a deep breath, Li Yian raised his head, looked directly at Ding Changjie, and asked.

"Not to mention that my wife and children are on the hot bed, I am even thinking about finding a foreign student who will be so critical of ordinary people. How should I deal with such a person?"

……

Dealing with a person is easy, but dealing with a thing is very difficult. Just after Ding Changjie left, Cheng Jide from the Labor Department came over again. The first thing he did when he came to the door was to directly ask for a "special tea room" of operations.

"Mr. Li, this is related to the well-being of hundreds of thousands or even millions of workers in the future. Please ask the Office to properly handle the teahouse issue."

The reason why Cheng Jide was so nervous was that he was worried that the PCPD would order the teahouse to be closed.

"Don't worry, the teahouse cannot be closed, now and in the future, but registration and epidemic prevention work must be done well. At the same time, compatriots are absolutely prohibited from working in the teahouse. Once any teahouse is discovered, regardless of whether it is forced, we must Those who are forced into prostitution will be severely dealt with, and all their income since the business will be confiscated. In short, in a word, teahouses can have teahouses, but they must not have our own people."

As for foreigners... they just come here to make money. There must be a job channel for the majority of Southeast Asian women. Of course, it is still acceptable to be a Filipino, Vietnamese, Burmese, etc. in the future. After all, when Borneo develops, there will always be a need for cheap foreign workers.

"Then you can rest assured about your humble position."

While Cheng Jide breathed a sigh of relief, Li Yian sighed.

"But I can't worry! There are 400,000 single workers now. What will happen in the future? Is it a million or a few million? You can drink tea in the teahouse, but what about childbirth? If a country has no fertility rate, then what future is there!"
