Survival From The Wilderness: Mission Master

Chapter 433

Chapter 433 Discussion

After returning to his cabin, Ye Qing and a group of people sat in the living room, planning to discuss the future plans of Yihua Workers.

Of course, the main discussion was Ye Qing and Zhao Ling. Funi was only interested in the road and sat aside to listen. And Red Beard was pulled by Fanny to listen to it.

Seeing everyone sitting together like a family, Ye Qing smiled. Then he looked at Zhao Ling and said: “Okay, Zhao Ling, tell me your thoughts in detail.”

On the way back, Zhao Ling has perfected his ideas a lot, and explained to everyone at this time, and he is more calm:

“First, let me tell you about the background of the current era.” Zhao Ling thought about it for a few seconds, and then began to explain, “Now in the middle and late nineteenth century, America’s initial development of the western coast is gradually coming to an end. However, due to the extremely inconvenient traffic between the east and the west, it takes six months to get from San Francisco to the Big Apple. Therefore, this development is only a preliminary development, and it is a development of coastal port cities and surrounding areas.”

“But the opening of the Pacific Railroad ends all this. As the first interstate railroad, the Pacific Railroad has turned the six months just mentioned into a week.” As he spoke, Zhao Ling’s expression gradually became serious. “At the same time, in addition to the coastal areas in western America, California, Texas, Utah and other places that have just become part of America have not been effectively developed due to the inconvenience of transportation and the shortage of manpower. The vast and fertile land is left aside, waiting for someone to develop it. There are even large and small gold mines and silver mines buried underground.

“So, in other words, the opening of the Pacific Railway opened up the development of these lands in western America. This is a drastic change for America, and it is also a huge opportunity for the people of America.

“And the workers who are participating in railway construction here are the ones closest to this opportunity.”

As the statement deepened, Zhao Ling’s eyes gradually sparked: “Of course, we can say this now, we are standing on the side where we know it will develop, and also from the perspective of a bystander who can see the overall situation of America. Let’s talk about it. Now, most people in America can’t correctly realize this. They are still the same as before. After working on a construction site, they spend a month or two at home, and wait until their deposits are used up. See if there is another construction site under construction. America will be in the stage of high-speed development for a long time in the future, and these people will never be short of jobs.

“Only people like William can keenly discover this opportunity and put it into action.” At this point, Zhao Ling looked at Ye Qing and smiled. “To be honest, we have to thank William, if it weren’t for his reminder. , I can’t remember this period of history for a while.”

“Now that I have remembered, there is no reason not to let the Chinese workers get on this high-speed train!” Zhao Ling clenched a fist fiercely, and continued, “We are very clear about the capabilities of the Chinese workers. Money, no, it can be said that as long as there is a goal, there is a hope. Give them enough land and space to display, they will be able to live well!

“So my idea is to let the Chinese workers buy a large enough piece of land near the railway. It is better for the Chinese workers to build a small town by themselves. At the same time, they reclaim the fertile land nearby. After all, there is no doubt about the ability of the ** to farm. .”

“In addition, you can also consider getting closer to the small town where William and the others live. William knows the abilities of the Chinese workers, and he has already established a good relationship with Lei Ding and Cheng Ji. No surprises. If it is, it will be arranged one or two. In this way, the Chinese workers are not familiar with America, and the problem of language barriers will be solved to the greatest extent. Later, you can slowly open the school to teach the pronunciation. Mr. Wu is already very old. This job is also suitable for him.

Zhao Ling rose up as he talked about it, and for a while, even Lao Wu’s work was arranged for him.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhao Ling calmed down and looked around and found that Ye Qing was looking at her with an expression of approval.

Zhao Ling immediately lowered his head in embarrassment, and said, “This is probably what I think. Do you have any opinions?”

Ye Qing didn’t speak at first, but looked at Fanny, and said: “Fanny, do you have any thoughts?”

Fanny was stunned, and said dazedly: “Ah, I think it’s great, there is no problem.”

At this time, the red beard, who had been sitting quietly on the side, said: “Will it be a little too idealistic. Will the Chinese workers be willing to build a small town from scratch and cultivate their own fields?”

Ye Qing looked at Red Beard, and suddenly felt that in the last era, the intrigue between the pioneers of America left a bad impression on Red Beard.

But this time, Red Beard should think too much. Ye Qing smiled and explained: “I think it will happen. There are two reasons. First, the Chinese desire for their own land and houses. America and people are not at the same level. In the hearts of most Chinese, they own their own land. And the house is absolutely in the first echelon in terms of importance. Let alone such a large tract of fertile soil. I dare to tell everyone the price of the land nearby, without even telling them the pros and cons of the Pacific Railroad. , Can attract a large number of Chinese workers with savings to buy land and settle here.

Second, America workers can rest for a while after the completion of the railway and then go out to look for work, but Chinese workers cannot. Like Lei Ding, once they can’t find a job, they will be very panicked and at a loss.

“Why? This is because most American workers have their own residences on this land. The Chinese workers are different. They have no houses or land, and they are unfamiliar with the land. They simply cannot afford to be as leisurely as America workers.”

Speaking (Wang is good), Ye Qing looked at Zhao Ling and said with a smile: “Just like people in the big cities of our time, if you are a local and have your own house, you can earn two to three thousand a month. It’s very chic, and it doesn’t even matter if you don’t work for a while. But if you are a part-time worker and earn only two or three thousand a month, you will not even have enough basic expenses for food and accommodation. Even if you only have one month without a source of income, it is extremely good. It may run out of savings and have nowhere to go.”

“What I just said is actually emphasizing the importance of houses and land. When they have their own houses, the pressure on survival of the Chinese workers will be much less. At that time, they can really live like American workers. It doesn’t matter if you don’t work for a month or two.”

“Of course,” said halfway, Ye Qing fell backward and lay on the sofa, “For most Chinese, it is impossible for them not to work, because they feel that the deposit is never enough.”
