1717 New American Empire
Chapter 157: The ever-changing life
Time passes little by little, and in the blink of an eye, it has been nearly three months since the establishment of the three towns of Victory Town. Since defeating the invading 40,000 British troops and Hessian mercenaries more than a month ago, more than 50,000 people in the three towns have
People's lives have stabilized. Originally, because they were worried that the company would be defeated by the British army, not many people had the intention to work seriously. It was more of a time-killing activity driven by worries and the desire to protect one's property.
Fortunately, the performance of the company's army was really amazing. Most of the 10,000 people were ordinary people who had never joined the army, and their performance in this war was remarkable. Under the guidance of the powerful escort instructors
Under their training, these soldiers only lasted for three months, and their quality in all aspects even exceeded that of the British regular army. Naturally, sufficient food and excellent weapons played a big role. The only shortcoming of inexperience was also on the battlefield.
Gradually make up for it after sharpening it.
In this war, the company invested a total of 13,000 troops, and only suffered more than 1,500 casualties. And because of the company's perfect battlefield medical system, advanced medical concepts and technologies, as well as sufficient medicines and high-tech equipment, the final
The number of deaths was only reduced to more than 500 people. This is extremely incredible to many people. Before 1719, there had never been a battle with more than 50,000 people with only 500 deaths.
Among these five hundred people, only more than a hundred were members of the escort. The families of those who sacrificed their lives received generous pensions, and from then on they enjoyed various welfare benefits for the families of martyrs. The four hundred families who lost their loved ones also gradually
No longer sad, they began to live a better life in the envious eyes of their neighbors. It was not until the end of the war that the white people who originally belonged to the British camp began to truly discover the changes that the company had made on their lives.
First of all, the most important thing is medical treatment and sanitation. Each of the company's five towns (plus the former Lugu Town) has built a hospital that is not very large, which is probably equivalent to a hospital in a small town in the 21st century.
There are only fifteen doctors and forty-five nurses. However, all the drugs that can be purchased in the 21st century are available here, and the surgical equipment that is only available in many large hospitals in the 21st century is also available here.
Apart from the labels and instructions, these drugs and equipment have been kept confidential, and even the names have not been removed. With the medical technology of all forces in this era except the company, these drugs will not be able to be copied within a hundred, or even two hundred years.
You know, the most popular method among European doctors in this era is bloodletting therapy, which is a rubbish method. Even traditional Chinese medicine techniques, which are slow-acting but can cure the root cause, are a dozen ways ahead of them.
With this technology, everyone can be cured unless they are suffering from terminal diseases such as AIDS, cancer, Parkinson's disease, etc. that cannot be solved in the 21st century. Originally, at this time, many people were suffering from heatstroke, heat stroke, and colds due to sudden changes in weather.
If it were in the past, dozens of people would have died anyway. But when you get to the company, as long as you are sent to the hospital in time, given an infusion, an injection, and some medicine, it will be much better. You can see that the average life span of everyone who joins the company is
extended for at least twenty years.
Something that has something to do with medical treatment is the change in the living environment. For a long time, neither white people nor Indians have any concept of hygiene. Indians are a little better, because of the plague in the Middle Ages, white people actually thought that the epidemic started in bathhouses.
It has been spread that bathing will make people sick. Those nobles did not bathe all year round. In order to cover up the odor on their bodies, they applied a huge amount of spices, which created a strange smell that Xiao Lin couldn't stand.
taste.
Moreover, these people's domestic garbage and excrement are dumped at will. When Xiao Lin decided to build three new towns, he directly changed this way of life. The towns were scientifically divided, and the residential areas were concentrated in
Domestic garbage must be put into the large trash cans on every street. Every morning, sanitation workers will drive their cars to take the garbage to the treatment plant for centralized processing. Fortunately, no plastic bags are used.
This kind of garbage, rags, food residues, glass, etc., which are difficult to handle and take a long time to decompose, is very convenient to handle.
Public toilets have also been built in every street, and everyone can go to the toilet here. Even if there is a urinal at home, these things have to be poured into these toilets every day. Retting with people's excrement also reduces the need for chemical fertilizers.
There is a huge demand. No one dares to continue to litter. Once discovered, not only will they be fined a huge sum of money, but they will also have to do volunteer work. At first, they were not used to it, but gradually, people consciously maintained this policy.
After all, no one wants to be surrounded by feces and urine all day long.
Under the company's propaganda, the concept of bathing frequently, washing your hair and brushing your teeth every day has also been accepted by people. Going out fresh and clean can also start a new day's life well.
Apart from these, the biggest change is that people have extra money in their hands. In the past, under the pressure of the colonial high-level officials, people worked for a whole year without even having a meal of meat. But now, in just a few months, everyone has money in their hands.
They all have more than fifty Yanhuang coins, which are pure deposits.
, most of them have been turned into various pots, pans and clothes. The purchasing power of Yanhuang coins is temporarily twice that of Huaxia coins. After all, a power is in the 18th century and a country is in the 21st century. How much purchasing power does Yanhuang coins have?
, are all decided by the leaders of companies like Xiao Lin.
When you have money, you naturally have to consume. When you had no money before, you could only covet good things when you saw them. Now that you have money, you naturally have to start purchasing some. The company has thirty-eight types of light industrial products.
, the gallery includes all the things needed in daily life. The most enviable among them are all kinds of beautiful or handsome bicycles. But the price of each one is more than 70 yuan. For the time being, they are still there
Wait and see.
The delicacies that the company inherited and learned from China in the 21st century are now the bulk of their purchases. These foods have replaced the food cooked by the British cooking techniques and have 100% occupied the dining tables of everyone in the company. They began to hate it.
Instead of hard and tasteless bread, they ate steamed buns and steamed buns that were white, fat, fragrant and soft. Fried dough sticks, fried dough cakes, sesame balls, soy milk and other special Chinese breakfast options became their choice.
People who work outside also like to go to canteens or restaurants to order rice bowls or noodle soup every day at noon. As for noodle soup, they never imagined that there are so many types. Thin noodles, wide noodles, dragon beard noodles, shaved noodles, noodles, etc.
rice noodles, rice
Rice noodles plus a variety of dumplings and wonton glutinous rice balls dazzled them. There were even more rice bowls, thirty kinds in total, all of which tasted very good. It didn’t cost much, just a few Yanhuang coins for a meal, that is, they
One-sixth of the pay for a day's work.
In terms of clothing, they also abandoned the layers of clothes that were inconvenient at all in the past. Most people put on labor insurance suits or jeans, paired with a pair of sports shoes produced by the company, which looked much better than before.
Those who are recruited into the army by the company wear straight black clothes when going out.
Regular uniforms and special military leather shoes look handsome and handsome. When training and fighting, there are also special field military uniforms. The best-looking ones are various high-end suits and long skirts. Because the prices are relatively high, they are all in the company for the time being.
Only the important people and those who joined the company early will have it.
The three new towns brought together more than 40,000 people who originally lived in fifteen settlements, but they slowly became formal. Abandoning their original way of life, people began to create wealth with their own hands with great enthusiasm.
.The whole atmosphere is like the rising sun, full of vitality. However, in the colonies of other European countries, due to constant oppression, there has been a lifeless atmosphere like the sunset. Without the company, this atmosphere would have been
It sparked an uprising similar to the American Revolutionary War.
Now, companies appear decades in advance. By that time, most of the territory may be occupied by companies. A large-scale uprising may turn into a large-scale exodus to company territory.
After the war ended, smuggling activities continued. Without the purchase of the Charles family and the trader tribe, the company did not lack customers. Now, the French not only purchased revolvers and grenades, but also began to purchase all kinds of military food from the company.
The French meal will be world-famous in later generations, but it has not yet fully developed in this era, so it is naturally not as good as company food with more spices and condiments. Every French person is very happy to eat canned and instant noodles.
And even though the British have just been taught a lesson, many British still choose to continue doing business with the company because of the benefits. There is no way, since they have used the company’s good things, who is willing to go back and live a good life. Yes.
With this demand, there is huge room for profit. Capital is like this. As long as they have a profit of 300%, they can sell their own noose.
However, maybe these people are very willing to become members of the company. The company has complete laws to protect the interests of business people, and even encourages people to do business. In the company, no one has ever been in power because of excessive wealth.
There are situations where a business owner is killed. In the British colonies, there are quite a few such situations. However, it is also because there are not many self-employed people in the company and they don’t have much property, so the businessmen naturally wait and see first.
As time goes by, the company's news begins to spread. In the past, the company had only a few people, and they hid themselves to preserve their strength. Everyone could only make their own inferences based on various rumors. But now, all the company's information began to follow the company's development.
The spread of the word spread, causing waves of waves.
