Australian Storm 1876

  Chapter 91 Young Eagle Project

   "Master, what's your order?"

   "Awei, come, let's sit down and talk."

   "Follow your humble duty."

Li Fushou laughed and said, "Awei, there is no need to be restrained here. The people around me come out. You are the most reassuring and the best. The arrangements in Cuba are very well arranged, with General Juan Carlos. Established a strong friendship, successfully obtained the right to trade in cane sugar exports, and promoted smoothly in North American sales channels. I see every bit of this, and I feel very pleased!"

   "The reason why Ah Wei is today is that he can't do without the master's constant teachings. He is grateful for five years and is willing to closely follow the master's footsteps and do some practical things." Zhu Wei's regular buttocks sat on a chair with his upper body straight.

  Li Fushou looked at him with satisfaction, which shows that Zhu Wei has set himself upright and his attitude is pretty good!

   "I am looking for you today for a major issue concerning the development of the Red River Valley in the next few decades. I am not assured of entrusting it to others. I have to leave it in your hands after thinking about it."

   "Master, please show me that even if there is a sea of ​​swords and fires ahead, Zhu Wei dare to break through." Zhu Wei stood up after hearing the sound, with a solemn expression.

  "Sit down, sit down, this matter needs to be considered in the long term."

  Li Fushou greeted him and saw Zhu Wei sit down again, taking out the small notebook and pen from his pocket to record the main points, a look of appreciation flashed in his eyes.

  After thinking about it, he said slowly;

  "The present world

  European powers colonized the world, I think that the leader of China is still immersed in the glory of the past, decayed without thinking of change, and calm and waveless like a pool of stagnant water, but does not know the danger is coming.

  The English kingdom colonized the Indian continent and developed into the Straits Settlements in the South Ocean. The French kingdom landed in Annan and prepared to conquer the Southeast Peninsula by force.

The United States opened the door of Fuso with its strong ships and guns. The northern Russian Teddy Bear has acquired a large tract of land outside the pass since the First World War in Yaksa. Now 26 years have passed, and the greedy Russian Teddy Bear has gradually invaded more land outside the pass. , It seems hard to fill.

  What does all this show? "

Without waiting for Zhou Wei's answer, Li Fushou said on his own;

   "The lips are dead and the teeth are cold. A three-year-old child knows this.

  Large imperial court and all the princes, is no one aware of the imminent danger?

  It's ridiculous, you can't wake up a person who pretends to be asleep.

As Chinese sons and daughters, we have the same black hair, dark eyes, and yellow skin, and the fierce iron and blood that has been passed down since the Han and Tang dynasties flows in our bones. We must do something for our suffering nation before we can live up to the seven-foot man's body. . "

  That's it

  Zhu Wei couldn’t sit still anymore. He knelt on the ground with a "porch", bowed to the ground with a five-body salute, and said with a hiss;

  Zhu Wei is also full of blood, swearing to follow the steps of the master, always responding to the master's guidance, and will work hard to complete the master's entrustment. This life will not change, this will not change, and the world can learn from it.

  If you break this oath

   will surely be struck by five thunders from the sky, and will not be able to turn over after falling into the abyss for life, and will not be buried in the ancestral grave after death. "

  After speaking, he knocked his head a few times.

   "Awei, don't..."

  Li Fushou hurriedly stood up and stretched out his hand to pull. Zhu Wei still resisted and knocked his head a few times before standing up.

  Double face

  The forehead has been knocked, leaving a circle of bruises on the boss, it can be seen that it is all because of true temperament.

   "Awei, why are you my brother?"

  "Lord, please tell me that Ah Wei has sworn this iron-blooded oath. In this life, he is willing to follow the lord and follow him to the end of the world, life and death."

"Good brother, with a good brother like you helping me, big things can be done, come, come, let's sit down and talk." Luo Fushou couldn't help patting Zhu Wei on the shoulder, sitting beside him with his hand, and doing it himself. Pour a cup of tea and pass it over.

  It’s a bit of undressing, pushing the taste of food,

  Zhu Wei took it with both hands, raised his head and drank it, then put down his teacup and waited quietly.

   Slender fingers tapped on the desk, Li Fushou thought about the words and said;

  "Nuo Great China has been decayed for a long time, and Kyushu is asleep. It is definitely not the ability of you and me to change.

  For the present

  We have laid a solid foundation in the Red River Valley of Australia. We can continue to transport immigrants in, strengthen our compatriots, change their situation and future, accumulate strength and develop slowly, so as to wait for change.

  Just like what I said in my dream, build a carefree paradise for Chinese compatriots, strong and confident, rich and beautiful, and realize the beauty of living and working in peace and contentment.

  We cannot let 40,000 people enjoy this peace, but with perseverance, we can enable hundreds of millions of our compatriots to live a good life.

  The most important job is immigration, so I want you to take charge of this huge and trivial job and provide comprehensive support in terms of human and financial resources and all aspects. Do you have any confidence? "

  "The humble duty must be conscientious to complete the master's entrustment, and never dare to slack in the slightest." Zhu Wei's answer was loud and loud.

"good……"

  Li Fushou slapped his thigh and yelled hello. He stood up excitedly, pacing back and forth in the study, thinking about it, and speaking out his plan at the same time;

"From today;

  Establish a special organization Guangjitang, which is a parallel organization of Normandy Import and Export Corporation, and you will be the chief treasurer, responsible for coordinating the immigration affairs of the entire Qing Dynasty.

  You are sitting in Shanghai, and all the carriages you brought this time will be left to you after you have used them, and all the manpower in the picture will be left to you.

Guangjitang should set up branches in Weihaiwei, Tianjinwei, Shanghai, Ningbo, and Yangcheng to help victims, adopt orphans, and young street children. The age can be relaxed to 9-10 years old, and no more than 16 years old. Years old, the specific criteria are up to you.

  Considering that adults' thoughts and concepts have been formed, it is easy to change the stale ideas, and the staleness is deep, so I consider mainly children between 9 and 16 years old. This plan is named "The Young Eagle Project."

  Red River Valley would rather spend a lot of energy and financial resources, but also train children from an early age, establish a correct world view and development outlook for them, and become an important force for the flourishing development of Red River Valley.

  The young eagle plan is in progress

All the expenses for the teenagers going to Australia will be borne by me. A large-scale school, boarding and lodging system will be established, fully militarized, and a complete education system will be formed. I will call Fan Asheng to immediately start preparations and prepare to receive students from the mainland. Refugee children.

  Pre-project

  I will allocate 100,000 pounds to establish no less than 30 Guangji halls from south to north, and deploy capable personnel from Australia to take charge of the work. On the surface, the responsible person will be unified by foreigners to avoid unnecessary trouble.

  In addition, I will prepare a sum of money for you, which will be used to buy the local government to let it go, and will not hinder it.

  Among all the children adopted by the "Young Eagle Project", they are required to be in good health, have good ears and eyes, and must not have disabilities or other hidden diseases, because our resources are also limited, and there is no way to raise some disabled children.

you need to know

  Under the condition of a limited amount, we can adopt more healthy children with the same funds and energy. The kindness to disabled children is the cruelty to healthy children, which is very important. "

  Zhu Wei nodded earnestly, and then swiftly wrote in the notebook, and wrote down the words of the master completely. As for the children with disabilities, there is no need to thank them, just keep them in mind.

  The large bruise on his forehead not only lacks the slightest taste of comicality, but has a religious ritual-like sacred feeling.

  Li Fushou walked in the study with his hands on his back, saying what he thought of;

  "The Young Eagle Project is only one part of immigration. The other part is the large number of people in Fujian and Guangdong who are willing to immigrate. Most of them have suffered disasters or are unable to survive. Guangjitang is responsible for selecting strong families among them and immigrating to Australia as a whole.

  This group of people is called "Jingwei Project"!

One of the requirements in the   Jingwei plan is still to be young and strong, with a reasonable mix of males and females in the population, and the main focus is on the overall migration of the family.

  The specific freight rate for the ticket is still calculated at 10 pounds per person. This fee cannot be reduced or exempted, so as to maintain the reasonable operating profit of the United Shipping Company in the 19th century and protect the interests of the company’s shareholders.

  Avoid major incidents due to disputes over interests, which is contrary to our original intention.

  After the immigrant families in the Jingwei plan are in debt and go to Australia, they can serve as the bottom force of the agriculture and animal husbandry industry in the Red River Valley and gradually accumulate a demographic advantage.

  No matter how many people are in the whole family, 10 people are 100 pounds, 15 people are 150 pounds, and the relevant immigration loan funds are lent by Huitong Bank with an annual interest of 10%.

  After arriving in Australia, enter the Red River Valley Ranch to work, and use salary to repay the fare of the boat ticket to Australia until the payment is completed.

  Strong men are calculated on the basis of strong labor, and elderly women are calculated on the basis of half a strong labor, and the remuneration paid is slightly lower than that of ordinary rancher workers, creating a real income gap and encouraging families in the Jingwei Program to work hard to pay off their debts.

  After all, the normal operation of Huitong Bank requires reasonable profits, and problems that can be solved by market means do not have to bear this burden. "

  Zhu Weiyun's pen was flying, and he recorded the master’s words in his portable notebook. He raised his head when he heard here and asked; "Master, are all the children in the Young Eagle Project free? What if they are not talented?"

   "Oh, follow the laws of the market."

  Li Fushou walked to the window, looked at the people of the Qing Dynasty on the street, and said with a thought;

  "All the children in the Young Eagle Project will be trained until the age of 16 for free. For those with poor academic performance, dull personality, stubbornness, and disobedience, they will all be sent out to work and support themselves. After all, the factory also needs a large number of knowledgeable workers.

  This ratio is set at two to eight.

  80% sent out to be self-reliant, all rewards and punishment systems are implemented in accordance with the laws of the Red River Valley, there is no tolerance, no extra-legal favors, and no other-sightedness.

  The remaining 20% ​​of the carefully selected elites will continue to train for free at the elementary level and above, enter the two-year high school study, and select again until the age of 18.

The ratio of    is still set at 28K.

  The two selected students who are both excellent in learning and learning, choose the outstanding to enter Europe and the United States to study abroad, and the rest enter the Red River Valley College for further study, hoping to become pillars like you. "

"Understood."

Zhu Wei stopped the pen in his hand and looked at Li Fushou, who was pacing back and forth in the study. The sun shining outside the window was shining on his face, which seemed to smear a sacred brilliance on Li Fushou’s tall image, leaving it in Zhu Wei’s heart. A permanent impression.

  Looking back on this after many years

  Zhu Wei can still feel the worship mood of the five-body throwing to the ground at that time, which is the sublimation of reverence, transformed into an out-of-heart fan.

   "Master, how many people are we set for in our immigration plan in 1879?"

  Li Fushou calculated in his mind and said, “According to the current capacity of the Red River Valley, a large number of manpower is needed to expand the boundaries of the pasture.

  It is estimated that this plan includes the cost of transoceanic transportation, establishing schools, arranging food and lodging and military training throughout the year, etc. Even if it is used carefully, it will cost no less than 550,000 pounds per year.

  In addition to the requirements of Guangjitang, the annual cost is not less than 30,000 to 40,000 pounds. When the two are added, almost all the profits of a wool spinning mill have to be invested in.

  The "Jingwei Project" is better, most of which are personnel expenses, no more than 10,000 pounds per year, and the planned immigration is not less than 100,000. The more the better, the overall there is still some profit.

  But the price is worth it, and we can’t just look at the immediate benefits.

  Red River Valley needs more vigorous young people, who are more active in thinking, have a stronger ability to accept new things and new things, and have broader boundaries for future development, which are the basis for truly helping Red River Valley to take off.

  In order to realize the plan

  Australia 19th Century United Shipping Company will order four 5,000-ton fast freighters this year, which are expected to be delivered in the second half of the year, specifically for running routes from the mainland to Australia.

  By the end of next year

  The fast freighter plans to grow to 12 ships, with a transportation capacity of 300,000 to 400,000 immigrants per year. With the addition of free immigrants from Southeastern Guangdong, Hong Kong and other Southeast Asian regions, the scale of population growth can be expected. "

With a wave of his ambitious big hand, Li Fushou sketched out the grand blueprint, which ignited the infinite admiration in Zhu Wei's heart. He stood up with a shriek, and his feet stood straight; "Please rest assured, Zhu Wei To fulfill the important task entrusted."

   "Hahaha...hahahaha...ok, good..."

  Li Fushou laughed up to the sky, laughing so happy, patted Zhu Wei's shoulder vigorously and said; "The funds will be transferred to the account today, let go and do it."

   "Understand, never dare to humiliate mission."

"good……"
