Chapter 630 Is Daming Rich?

Chapter 630 Is Daming Rich?
There are less than [-] people of Han descent or blood relatives on Sumatra Island. Of course, they were all integrated into the Huang family system by the Han people.

There are still tens of thousands of people who have to keep pulling nets and go to the hills with hounds led by mountain soldiers to catch them. This work is relatively arduous, because the land here is too large, with high mountains and dense forests.

What does Sumatra mean?How could the land of our Han people be called such an outlandish name? Of course, Huang Sheng gave his territory a name that Han people love to hear.

From now on, Sumatra Island does not exist, there is only "Nanhua Island".The Han people from the Central Plains continued to come, and the vigorous transformation of "Nanhua Island" began.

More than one million Han Chinese have immigrated to "Nanhua Island", and half of them are men and women.

Tens of 10 people sweated like rain and worked hard, smooth roads were extended, strong seawalls were expanded, and reservoirs, bridges, and factories were erected one by one.

The Huang family system in the seven years of Chongzhen developed too fast, and it is no longer an exaggeration to describe it as leapfrog development.

It is expected that the population will double in this year; the output of steel, cement, and bricks and tiles will double; the number of warships and cargo ships launched will double; the total mileage of roads will double; the area of ​​fertile land will double...

Doubling the pace in one year is too big a step, and it's finally a mess.

It is astonishing to maintain the doubling of large-scale investment. The thirst for funds finally appeared in the Huang family system. If funds are not obtained, it will directly affect the development of "Nanhua Island".

This is not Huang Sheng's blind progress, but a last resort. With the influx of millions of immigrants, how can people's hearts be stabilized if they cannot provide jobs?
Infrastructure investment is the most capable of driving employment, but also consumes the most funds, and will not produce obvious benefits in the short term.

Huang Sheng plans to immigrate 40 households and nearly 300 million Han people to work and live in "Nanhua Island". Each household must pay at least [-] silver coins in advance for resettlement funds. Of course, this is the cost price.

Because the construction cost of a small brick and tile building with about ten rooms per family requires fifty silver coins, and a fixed residence can make the Han people feel at home and live and work in peace and contentment.

Just to solve the housing problem, one needs to pay 2000 million silver coins in advance. The houses looted by "Nanhua Island" only have a small number of stone buildings that can meet the needs. Most of the thatched houses are only used by Han people during the transition period, and they will all be demolished in the future.

Although immigrants will be paid to pay for these private properties in their future labor, it is conservatively estimated that it will take three to five years.

Of course, it is not enough to solve the housing problems of ordinary people. The funds needed for water conservancy facilities, forts, forts, ports, warehouses, factories, etc. will reach 5000 million silver coins.

There is no doubt that the investment will pay off, but it will not happen overnight. The payback period may not be several years.

With such a vast territory, no effort must be spared in the construction of roads and bridges. The planned roads will reach thousands of miles. Investing in roads and bridges will quickly increase the mobility of the army, and will quickly form a centralization of the entire "Nanhua Island".

However, the road and bridge funds needed in the budget are as high as 3000 million silver coins, which is an investment that cannot reflect benefits in the short term.

Huang Sheng has made a lot of money in the past few years, but he has been taking the means of continuously increasing investment to stimulate the economy to make business prosperous, increase employment rate and stabilize people's livelihood.

After all, the construction of ports, warehouses, factories, reservoirs, water conservancy facilities, etc. in Cochin Province and Hainan Island in the past few years is a project with huge initial investment, and it is impossible to recover the investment in the short term.

Huang Sheng has achieved the sustainable development of Cochin Province and Hainan Island, but once again investing in the large-scale construction of "Nanhua Island" is more than enough.

After all, this place is as big as the four Jiangsu provinces of the later generations. To turn this place into a paradise that can resist tsunamis, floods and other common natural disasters that occur once in 30 years, it is not enough just to have hard-working Han people, and a lot of money is needed.

Therefore, Huang Sheng planned to act later, using "Huaxia Development" to attract investment, and to concentrate the wealth of vested interests in Ming Dynasty to achieve a win-win effect.

"Nanhua Island" can develop on a large scale after obtaining the initial investment funds, and the return of Huang Sheng's investment will strengthen its strength again.

Daming investors' participation in "Huaxia Development" to obtain dividends will stimulate the rapid entry of wait-and-see capital, and the next virtuous circle will form.

The Ming government is indeed extremely poor, but there are too many vested interests in the Ming Dynasty who are aristocratic families who have accumulated wealth for more than two hundred years, so there should not be too much money in the cellar.

In the 17th year of Chongzhen, the capital of the Ming Dynasty fell. Presumably not every high-ranking official was stupid enough to leave all his wealth in the home of the capital.

It is said that the treasury of the Ming Dynasty can starve mice to death, and Li Duyan's painstaking efforts to take down the capital is equivalent to nothing.

The virtuous Empress Zhou even wove brocade herself to help Chongzhen set an example of diligence and thrift in housekeeping. The emperor and empress restrained themselves and seldom bought new clothes.

The finances of the Ming Dynasty were on the verge of collapse. Chongzhen called on nobles and officials to help pay, and let Zhou Kui, the father of Empress Zhou, take action to set an example.

The miser cried out for poverty, and finally his daughter came to him to help him out, and Zhou Kui withheld Suosuo's donation of 2000 taels of silver.

Does Zhou Kui really have no money?No, he was a scholar who was poor and had to rely on fortune-telling and writing letters to support his family before he became a nobleman. He was named Jiading Bo in the third year of Chongzhen.

In the 17th year of Chongzhen, the capital fell, Queen Zhou committed suicide and died for the country, Zhou Kui and her whole family were captured by Li One-eyed bandits, Zhou Kui's wife and daughter-in-law were forced to hang themselves, and the eldest son was beaten to death.

He, his second son and nephew were tortured and tortured by bandit soldiers who tortured them almost to death, and had to hand over a huge sum of 70 taels of silver and all their property.

An upstart Jiadingbo who had no capital in the past only spent more than ten years becoming a wealthy man with 70 taels of cash plus real estate and land. From this, it can be seen that Daming is really rich, but it has been hidden.

The capital is just a city, and Li Duyan paid tens of millions of taels of silver. How much wealth will the wealthy Nanzhili City of Nanjing have?

Songjiang Mansion, Yangzhou Mansion, Huai'an Mansion, Jinan Mansion, Hangzhou, Ningbo...there are too many. The Ming Dynasty was established for more than [-] years, and precious metals flowed in until the country fell. How could there be no money?

The potential lies in the people, and the Ming government can't catch it. Li Duyan, Hou Jin, Zhang Xianzhong, etc. are all robbers. They are short-sighted and only rob and kill.

Huang Sheng came from later generations, "The ones who look down on these robberies the most have no technical content at all."

As long as the Huang family system develops a "China Development", as long as it has a profit-making effect, it will undoubtedly cause the landlords to rummaging through the boxes and cabinets to find out the family's money and make profits.

Daming's precious metals were seized by the Huang family, and the bandits who grabbed the cash were dumbfounded.
