African Nationhood

Chapter 100 Internal Affairs - People's Livelihood (Additional update for the leader of "Love My Food")
  After finishing the education matters, Shi Jintang convened a meeting with civil servants from Nanhua Company and its subordinate districts.

This time it was to understand the people's livelihood situation under the rule of Nanhua Company.

Sansa Bruce, who has put on weight in middle age, spoke first as the deputy mayor of Jinghai District.

“Our Jinghai District has the smallest immigrant population, currently only over 5000 people.

However, under the leadership of District Chief Ye, our district has opened a whale oil refinery, a whale jerky factory and a seal jerky factory.

These three factories have created more than 1000 jobs in Jinghai Region.

The three factories can generate an output value of 9.51-12.07 yuan each month.

In addition, Jinghai District has achieved food self-sufficiency at the beginning of this year, which is a major victory for the development of our Jinghai District. "

When Sansa Bruce said this, the audience burst into applause.

Everyone expresses admiration for the development of Jinghai Region!
  After all, Jinghai Region is the area with the worst and most difficult conditions among the first five regions.

They have achieved food self-sufficiency in just over half a year, which is very valuable!

Sansa Bruce continued: "The population in our region is mostly young and middle-aged men, and most of them are not married.

Therefore, on behalf of Jinghai Region, I request the company to consider the difficulties of our region and arrange as many female immigrants as possible to settle here. "

Shi Jintang nodded when he heard this, "Next one."

The person who stood up this time was a mediocre young girl named Tang Yan.

She is the assistant to the district chief of Tongcheng District and came to the meeting on behalf of Tongcheng District.

"Hello, Mr. Shi, hello colleagues, I am Tang Yan, speaking on behalf of Tongcheng District."

Shi Jintang thinks this girl with a lively personality is pretty good, capable and outgoing.

“Under the leadership of Mayor Brown, our Copper City District has achieved a lot in the past year.

First of all, the salt chemical plant in our district has been successfully put into operation, creating 136 jobs.

In addition, there are more than ten kinds of mineral resources that have been proven in Tongcheng District, among which the ones with mining value are copper mines, lead mines and zinc mines.

Once the railway from Meibu City to Hot Spring City is completed, the economic development of our Tongcheng District will surely reach a new level. "

Hearing this, Shi Jintang frowned. Why was the most critical number of resettlement immigrants not mentioned?

"Tell me the number of resettled immigrants in your region and the problems."

Tang Yan looked at Shi Jintang, chuckled, and continued: "Our Tongcheng Region has currently resettled more than 13600 immigrants, most of whom are herdsmen.

At present, the population structure is stable, and the gap of female immigrants is not large. There is no need to supplement female immigrants for the time being. Male immigrants can be supplemented in an appropriate amount.

The problem is that the immigrants are too energetic and often conflict with the white gold prospectors in the second gold mining area. "

After the mining rights of the Second Gold Mine were pledged by Shi Jintang, bankers in London directly auctioned off the mining areas designated for the Second Gold Mine.

European gold prospectors entered the mining area of ​​the Second Gold Mine and dug everywhere, making a mess.

Winston Brown, the mayor of Tongcheng District, was very troubled by this, but he was unwilling to offend those white gold diggers.

Later someone suggested that he let nature take its course and turn a blind eye as long as no murders occurred between these gold diggers and immigrants.

Winston Brown immediately adopted it, but Tang Yan did not agree with it, so she proposed it at today's people's livelihood meeting.

Shi Jintang has no good solution to this problem. Nanhua Company has not yet become independent, and the railway has not yet been completed.

We cannot simply drive away the white gold diggers from the Second Gold Mine just because of minor frictions.

It was not appropriate to make this matter a big deal for the time being, so he nodded, "Next one."

The person who stood up this time was an old Chinese man, over 50 years old this year, and his temples were gray.

He has thinning hair and gold-rimmed glasses on his face.

The whole person looked full of bookishness. He was Tie Lan, the deputy district chief of Fushui District.

This is a classmate of Shi Jintang teacher Rong Hong, who studied in the United States together in the early years.

After arriving in Southwest Africa, he was entrusted by Shi Jintang with the important task of serving as Qu Sangqian's deputy.

Qu Sangqian mainly focused on training troops and capturing black slaves, so Tielan was actually in charge of Fushui District.

The old man nodded to Shi Jintang, and then said slowly: "Fushui District has currently resettled 21095 immigrants, most of whom are foreign Chinese.

The population structure is stable, and animal husbandry and agriculture are almost evenly divided.

The problem is that because there are too many aquatic plants, the disease problem in the Fushui area is very serious, and the company needs to provide more malaria treatment and anti-inflammatory drugs. "

This problem is extremely serious, and Shi Jintang has imported as much medicine as possible from the United States.

But Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceuticals has limited production capacity and cannot keep up with consumption.

Shi Jintang has arranged for Alice in Paris to help purchase medicines from other European countries.

"Well, the company is currently purchasing drugs urgently. Please hold on, Mr. Tie."

Tie Lan nodded and sat down. "Next person."

The speaker this time was Futong, “Our Central Plains District has currently resettled 39998 immigrants, with a male to female ratio of 73:27.

Our region urgently needs companies to import female immigrants to alleviate gender pressure.

At present, many cases of male immigrants raping black indigenous women have been discovered in our region.

Although we have taken action, we cannot ignore this phenomenon.

I hope Mr. Shi can expand the scope of immigration and relieve the pressure as soon as possible. "

After listening to Futong's speech, Shi Jintang sighed silently. During this period, the immigrant population has indeed increased, and there have been more and more problems.

"Well, I will think of a way. District Chief Fu, please sit down."

James Lister stood up directly without Shi Jintang greeting him.

“Our Binhai District currently has more than 5300 immigrants resettled, most of them are young children and members of the cadet team, and the pressure on the population structure is not obvious.

The only thing that needs to be considered is the security situation in Jinshan Town. The gambling and pornographic industries around the Nava Gold Mine have developed rapidly, and more than 5 people have gathered.

The majority are white people, supplemented by Chinese immigrants.

The majority of people working in the porn industry are black women, even though we have cracked down hard on that.

But the white mine protection team seems to be involved, which makes our work very difficult.

Can Mr. Shi please communicate with the other party through the Nanhua company level? "

Hearing this, Shi Jintang was really angry.

He nodded to Liszt, "I understand, we will talk about this later. Continue..."

Next are Dushan District, Sanfeng District and Pingshan District.

Due to the harsh environment, these three regions do not have many immigrants, ranging from more than 1000 to several hundred people, who are mainly engaged in animal husbandry.

The total immigrant population in the Orange Grove area is less than 30,000, of which a large proportion are Boers.

Here mainly black slaves acted as the main force for reclamation and colonization.

Taken together, the number of Chinese immigrants in various regions has exceeded the 100,000 mark.

The primary factor that enabled such a rapid breakthrough was Henry Shipping Company's increased shipping capacity.

Secondly, the rifles and bullets produced by Anhai Arsenal made great contributions.

Because the Anhai Arsenal requires a large amount of saltpeter to prepare gunpowder, the salt marsh chemical plant in Tongcheng District lacks production capacity.

Therefore, the arsenal is directly connected to Chile and Peru in South America.

Through negotiations, an agreement was reached in exchange for Martini-Henry rifles and bullets for the immigrants.

There are Chinese immigrants in both countries, and most of the Chinese immigrants in Chile are remnants of the Taiping Rebellion.

After they helped Chile defeat the coalition forces of Peru and Bolivia, the Chilean government promised to hand over the seaport of Isak to them for autonomy.

However, Port Isaac is a desert with no green space at all, and even drinking water must be imported from outside.

Therefore, as soon as the Chinese there heard that fertile land was being distributed for free, they were immediately tempted.

Tens of thousands of people were shipped within a few months.

The Chinese in Peru had to be released through the Peruvian authorities, so few were shipped over.

The Orange Grove area will be the next focus of immigration, while the Bechuanaland area (Botswana) currently does not have a separate district.

The main reason why Shi Jintang is not in a hurry is that several districts are in urgent need of huge population filling. This is his most pressing problem.

But the immigration matter cannot be completed in one day. The current focus is on the problems in Jinshan Town, which he must solve quickly and accurately.

So Tianshi Jintang contacted Cecil Rhodes via telegram.

Inform him of Nanhua Company's decision to clean up the pornographic industry in Jinshan Town.

Cecil Rhodes had just acquired 1% of the shares of Golden Hook Mining Company, and he wanted to acquire more shares.

Therefore, I readily agree with Shi Jintang's opinion on this matter.

Then Shi Jintang led the guard company directly to Jinshan Town, forcing the white mine protection team to release the imprisoned black indigenous female.

Although the white mine protection team was dissatisfied with Shi Jintang's handling, there was nothing they could do. After all, their boss had agreed.

After finishing the matter in Jinshan Town, Shi Jintang directly recruited Ye Shilong from Jinghai District.

He plans to make a move, and his target is Kalimantan Island in Southeast Asia.
