The extremely lively economic development conference only received some disapproval in the aspect of education. Although the Republic of China had been influenced by the New Culture Movement and various new ideas had changed, the importance of education by the people was clearly not as high as the level of enlightenment in the Omi countries!!
However, the other aspects of the meeting received everyone's support. Whether it was military or economic, the future development plan of the Zaozhuang autonomous government had clearly taken shape. What they needed to do was to thoroughly implement these industrial plans!
Starting from July 1st, the roads, factories, and various construction sites near Zaozhuang were expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye as if they had gone crazy. The captives captured from Tang De Train Station were also being used by Li Yao. For example, the mines, the aerial work, and any extremely dangerous construction site were all completed by these Japanese captives.
In Li Yao's words, the lives of the Japanese were not worth much. Even if they were all dead, it was none of his business. After all, there were still so many Japanese people on the Jiaozhou Peninsula. However, the Japanese had never asked about the disappearance of the infantry brigade at the Tangde railway station, which made Li Yao feel strange. Could it be that the Japanese were so extravagant that they ignored the strength of an infantry brigade?
Or was it because the puppet Manchurian government had just been established, so the focus of their work was placed on the northeast, causing Dongshan to be in a free-for-all mode? After thinking about it, this was the only result.
Li Yao happened to be here today to inspect Zaozhuang's textile mill. Zaozhuang's first, second, and third textile mill were currently the most profitable industries under the Iron-Blood Army. They had already earned a huge amount of capital for Li Yao. As for the third textile mill, it had also been producing the stockings designed by Li Yao in a hurry for the past half a month!!
Ma Dexian, the director of the No. 3 textile mill, kept praising Li Yao when he talked about him. Li Yao was their God of Fortune. The No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3 factories had absorbed more than a thousand workers. They were peasant women who were good at needlework. Now that they had changed to textile machines, they were even better. Coupled with the implementation of the piecework wage law, these female workers were all crazy!
"Chairman, why don't we add a factory? There are a few villages nearby. After hearing about our textile factory, they all want to come in and work. There's no other way.”
Ma Dexian led Li Yao to tour the entire factory. Although the factory looked shabby, and some parts were even a little worn out, the machines were brand new. Naturally, Li Yao knew that once the workers 'enthusiasm was aroused, it would be a devastating storm!!
"The fourth textile mill in Tangde is already under construction, and it's on a larger scale. There's no need to expand the Zaozhuang area anymore. Let's make some supper for them tonight, even if it's tortillas!!”
Li Yao seemed to always put the interests of the workers first, which was quite impressive. Therefore, not only the soldiers of the Iron-Blood Army, but all the villagers admired him greatly. Besides, he was a national hero. The telegram on the battlefield in Songhu had given Li Yao an excellent reputation. Therefore, he did not reject the arrival of the Iron-Blood Army!
"Alright, chairman, we'll do as you say!!”
"By the way, Factory Manager Ma, is the first batch of stockings ready?”
Li Yao asked. In his heart, he was also very interested in the 200,000 pairs of stockings. As long as he opened the market in Europe and the United States, the ocean would really roll in. Women in Europe and the United States would go crazy for stockings!!
Right now, Li Yao was only worried that the 200,000 pairs of stockings would not be enough to be distributed. Therefore, the textile mill in Tunde was also under construction. The huge profits from the military uniforms, new clothes, and the current stockings in the textile mill drove Li Yao to continue expanding production.
"We'll load the car at night and head south. From Jiangnan's Liangang, we'll transport it to the US through the merchant ships of the Ying people. All the procedures have been arranged.!”
Li Yao nodded. Recently, Li Yao had spent a lot of money in the nearby government offices. He had no choice. Every dynasty had been like this…In the Republic of China, it was just that things had gotten worse!
The port that Li Yao chose was not in Jiaozhou or Tianhai, but Liangang. The first port was not far away, and the second port was in a remote area. There was no big city like Tianhai nearby, so it was left ungoverned. Whether it was the Jinling National Government or the European and American powers, their influence in Liangang was extremely limited, so Li Yao could have more room to play!
However, for Li Yao, it was an excellent port. More importantly, Li Yao could send a secret army to the port and occupy it completely!
In the future, the export goods from Zaozhuang could be transported to the Omi country through this port!!
After returning to his office in Zaozhuang, Li Yao also summoned Liu Dingguo. The purpose of transporting stockings to Omi was not as simple as selling them…
"Dingguo, for this trip to Europe and the United States, pick a few people who can speak foreign languages. Moreover, they must be able to bluff and try their best to fool people. The European countries have not completely emerged from the economic crisis. A large number of factories and shipyards are still in the stage of waiting for jobs, so we need to buy the machines of these large factories from them at a low price!!”
"Do you understand?"
Li Yao thought for a moment. If it were not for the economic crisis, the September 18th Incident would definitely have been delayed by a few years. However, the economic crisis this time had also given Li Yao an opportunity. Many private shipyards in the United States had gone bankrupt. If he did not seize this opportunity, he would be punished by the heavens. Therefore, the first large amount of foreign exchange reserves that he earned from the stockings this time would all be used by Li Yao to buy foreign industrial machines. The hundred-year industrial revolution in the European countries would certainly be much easier than starting from scratch!!
Liu Dingguo nodded. To put it simply, it was to sell stockings at a high price and purchase industrial machinery at a low price. This trip to Europe and America was for this purpose!!
"Alright, then go down and do your work first. Keep an eye on what happens tonight!!!”
New book, tickets! Writing was not easy. The author would like to thank all the bosses, brothers and sisters, brothers and sisters, and parents!!!
It would be a waste not to give away something that was free. It was fine if she gave him a tip, but that thing cost money. Thank you again!!!!)
