African Entrepreneurship Records

  Chapter 233 Another chapter of water (do not book)

  The country is a tool of class rule. Any country is a way. Immigrants to East Africa will at most be ruled in another place.

In Germany and the Far East, the vast majority of people do not have land. The land is owned by the Junkers and the landlord class, just like the people who came to the United States in this era. If they are not nobles and rich people, they must first be ones A few years of hard work.

  The difference in East Africa is that under the people, there are slaves. I may not live well. If someone is worse than me, then I will live well.

Ernst originally thought about allocating land to immigrants, but now it seems completely unnecessary, because immigrants have no such demands, and they are used to being tenant farmers for nobles and landlords. Suddenly, they encountered such a situation in East Africa that they managed food, clothing, housing, transportation, and even resolved marriages. Instead, the problem is satisfied, after all, they can't imagine a better life.

  At the beginning, Ernst wanted to grant military merits, but the fighting power of the natives was not worth the price at all, and the land has been rotten in the hands of the royal family of Hexingen.

  In addition, East Africa belongs to the family and the country, and the Hexingen royal family owns the entire East Africa, which has caused the politics of East Africa to become a suture monster.

  Agricultural status quo looks like a Soviet-style collective farm. The difference is that the collective farm is legally a collective economy, that is, it is jointly owned by the villagers, while East Africa is privately owned, but almost all industries in East Africa are privately owned by the royal family of Hexingen.

Unlike large farmers in the United States, farms mainly consider efficiency and making money. East Africa is completely planned, and efficiency is not considered too much. As a result, per capita productivity cannot be fully utilized. According to the agricultural conditions of five crops in two years in East Africa, and land The size should have pushed Italy past it, but it didn't.

  East African immigrants were raised by Ernst to be a little lazy, but the reason why this system did not collapse was the existence of the slave economy.

As for whether the grain will be sold at a loss, it is completely overwhelmed. There will always be food shortages in this world, such as Japan. As an importing country, it’s not that East Africa has any tricks, it’s because Japan is too poor in this era and can only buy cheap rice from East Africa. And East Africa imports "women" and cultural relics and ancient books from Japan through food trade, which is the best of both worlds.

  The same thing happened to Italy. The quality of East African flour produced by the Trieste factory is notoriously poor, and Italy is the most imported. And East Africa took this opportunity to import family migrants from the southern Italian region.

Now Ireland, a big immigrant country, has not been targeted by Ernst. It’s not that he doesn’t look down on Ireland, but that the British are too inappropriate. They don’t even allow Germans to enter Ireland. The reason is ready-made. The current situation in Ireland Not very good, the British are afraid that countries outside the region will cause trouble, who knows if you are spies of the French.

Another reason is that the Irish immigration wave has passed for many years. It was around 1850, and about 1.8 million people left Ireland. In addition, the previous famine caused a quarter of the population to die. Now Ireland is just a little poorer. I am a little dissatisfied with Britain, and have no reason to go away.

Immigrants can’t be caught, so they won’t catch them. Ernst is now a little relieved about the current scale of immigrants, because the population born in East Africa in the first five months of the first half of this year reached an astonishing 380,000. If nothing else, the entire 1870 In East Africa, the birth population alone will increase by more than 600,000, and the immigrant population will easily break through one million.

  The new immigrants will join the childbearing army after a while. Conservatively follow the three-year cycle, and the population of East Africa will exceed 10 million in ten years.

  Now immigration is stable at 400,000 per year, 4 million in ten years, and immigration cannot remain so stable, because there is still a world economic crisis that will last for several years. The population immigrating to East Africa at that time would surely have exploded in a short period of time.

   Population issue, Ernst has already sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, so we should focus on other causes in East Africa.

  Land ownership is a headache for Ernst. Ernst is very clear that the royal family of Hexingen cannot always reach an agreement with this group of troublemakers. With the development of time, the land will be thrown out sooner or later.

   It's just that you have to think about when to throw it and how to throw it, and you can't make it fly.

  Now, some mines can be brought out for the Austrians to invest in. This was designed before the establishment of the East African Kingdom.

  Through East Africa’s mineral resources to help Austria’s industrial development, East Africa will be able to complete its economic binding with Austria. When there is a conflict between East Africa and Britain and France, the Austrian government must be the first to be anxious.

Although the Suez Canal is in the hands of Britain and France, the biggest beneficiary is probably Austria, a 4 million-square-kilometer East Africa that can solve Austria's food and industrial raw material problems at the same time. The only flaw is that the East African market is not open to Austria. The quality of food is poor, and it avoids direct competition with Hungary. Even the raw materials of Ernst's Vienna factory come from Hungary, and the main focus is on the high-level food market.

  The market in East Africa is negligible, the consumption power of the people is almost zero, and even the wages they receive belong to the bonds issued by the Bank of Hechingen. No one recognizes this stuff when it comes out of East Africa.

  The only thing that Austria can make a fortune from East Africa is the weapons and equipment purchased by the government, such as large-caliber coastal fire prevention guns, gunboats, etc.

  Relying on royal investment alone, the development is still too slow. At the same time, some immigrants can be diverted and let them enter the industrial field.

   There is also the problem of the army. Now the East African army is not enough. The land of 4 million square kilometers requires at least 100,000 troops. The suppression of slaves also requires a large number of troops.

  With the development of the agricultural slave economy, agriculture no longer uses so many people. After enough money has been saved, the tractors of Hexingen Energy and Power Company have almost been manufactured, so slaves can continue to be used, and they are destined not to stay.

  Cooperating with Austria is the national policy of East Africa. The education, scientific research, military industry and other industries in East Africa will need the support of Austria.

It is impossible to achieve these things in East Africa now. Take education as an example. If we expect the education industry in East Africa to develop, we will have to wait at least two years. After that, you have to go to elementary school, middle school, and finally higher education.

   While higher education cannot be developed for the time being, scientific research and military industry are naturally impossible to realize, and there is not enough manpower for even slightly technical industries.

   But Ernst is not worried about this. East Africa has only been developed for three years, so it is better not to think about these things.

Moreover, East Africa has established a basic compulsory education system from the very beginning. Sooner or later, this system will develop with the growth of the second generation in East Africa. It is only a matter of time. Now so many countries in the world do not even have compulsory education, so education in East Africa It's not too late to start.

   I haven't had much inspiration recently, and I can't write content.
