Red Alert 1895
Chapter 143: Experiences on Passenger Ships (Part 1)
Sa Zhenbing sat on the passenger ship in Taiwan, and he saw that the passenger ship in Taiwan is actually very large, and can accommodate seven to eight hundred people at a time. And this makes Sa Zhenbing feel incredible, because there are relatively few such large passenger ships in the world. After all, this era is not like more than 20 years later, the Titanic can accommodate thousands of people. And this passenger ship with hundreds of people seems to be world-class. And Zhou Chen, who was sent by Wang Guorui to the mainland to recruit sailors, arranged for Sa Zhenbing to be in first class and enjoy the best treatment.
"Where did you buy this passenger ship?" Sa Zhenbing asked the ordinary waiter.
And the waiter immediately said: "Hello, this is the property of Mr. Wang, the Governor of Taiwan, and it is called Taiwan Shipping Company. And this ship was purchased by our Taiwan Shipping Company and Taiwan Shipbuilding Company, another industry of Mr. Wang. It is only two The companies keep their accounts independently, so they all need real money to buy.”
"Oh? You said such a big ship was manufactured by Mr. Wang's industry? Where is the Taiwan manufacturing company?" Sa Zhenbing asked.
"I don't know about this. I'm just a small waiter, not a high-level person." The waiter said.
Sa Zhenbing looked at this passenger ship with a displacement of at least seven or eight thousand tons, and was also very surprised. Because such a large passenger ship should not be able to be manufactured by China's current shipyards. After all, such a large ship, even if it is just a civilian ship, is not easy to manufacture. In many cases, civilian ships and military ships are just a line between them. In many wars, civilian ships can also be converted into military ships. This is not surprising. The Beiyang Navy also had this situation.
Being able to manufacture such a large civilian ship shows that Taiwan's shipbuilding level is still good. What surprised Sa Zhenbing the most was that this Taiwan had just left the Japanese for less than half a year, but it was able to manufacture such a large ship. The level of shipbuilding in Taiwan is really unpredictable. . As a navy, of course he knows ships very well. He naturally knows that it is almost impossible to build a ship within a few months, but Taiwan really did it. So what are they built on?
And Sa Zhenbing couldn't imagine that Wang Guorui was made by the Red Police Dockyard. And the cost of this ordinary passenger ship is very cheap, he just charged the cost price of steel, it doesn't look like a warship. No extra cost. So this kind of shipbuilding cost is about 15% to 20% of the shipbuilding cost of other passenger ships, which is very low. And Wang Guorui is not opposed to doing some business now, for example, civilian ships are all business. During this time, the so-called shipbuilding company in Taiwan was also established, and this shipbuilding company is exactly the same as the leather bag company.
This kind of company is actually some salesmen, and then they go all over the world to sell this civilian ship. And the salesman didn't know where the shipbuilding factory was. They felt that the ship just appeared out of thin air, and then it was sold to different customers. However, during this period of time, these ships have not been able to sell much, and they are mainly sold internally. For example, Wang Guorui's Taiwan shipping company, which is the route between Taiwan and Fujian.
At present, the mainland and Taiwan are not able to block each other, so they can still come together. During this time, Wang Guorui also continued to immigrate to Taiwan, and then prepared for some industrial development. In the future, Taiwan will need a large number of workers, so it is natural to find a way from outsiders. Taiwan only has a population of more than 2 million, which is not enough to fit between the teeth! Therefore, a large number of immigrants must be immigrated, and the immigration conditions given by Wang Guorui are still good. So many people without land also came here.
"Miss, can I go and see somewhere else?" Sa Zhenbing asked.
"Yes, the captain has already said that you are a distinguished guest, you can go anywhere to see it! As long as you want, you can also let you see this ship." The service lady said.
In order to attract those members of the Beiyang Navy, Wang Guorui had a very good attitude. And Wang Guorui wants to show these examples of himself, so that the people of the Beiyang Navy can see the strength of Taiwan, so that they will abandon the Manchu Qing Dynasty and take refuge here. And whether it can attract talents to join or not depends mainly on its own strength. The stronger its own strength, the stronger it is. Then more and more talents will come to join you, so that you can become stronger. This is a virtuous circle, and Wang Guorui just hopes to show the strength of Taiwan, so that those Beiyang Navy and even more people can understand the strength of Taiwan. Only in this way can they realize that there is a future for them to seek refuge in Taiwan.
Sa Zhenbing left the first-class cabin, then came to the ordinary cabin, and then saw some poorly dressed clothes.
"This is a warehouse, why are people living here?" Sa Zhenbing asked.
The service lady immediately explained: "They are immigrants from the mainland. Taiwan has started to open up immigration to the mainland, and many people who can't live in the mainland are willing to come to Taiwan to try their luck. And if you want land. We in Taiwan can lease some land to them. But it is mainly mountainous land, and some cash crops can be planted on the mountainous land, such as some fruits and the like, not mainly food. In the future, we will need more in Taiwan industrial raw materials, so it is natural to focus on cash crops.”
"And if you want to be a worker, then we can have someone specialize in vocational skills training, and then continuously teach them to learn various livelihood skills, and then work in the factory in the future. And this is the lowest warehouse, the reason why they live Here, it is because the price here is cheap and the cost is low. After all, everyone has to reflect their added value. If there is no value, they can only be at the bottom of society, and they can only live in this ordinary warehouse. And Only those who can afford it, or who miss you, our distinguished guests from Taiwan, can live in relatively better cabins."
Sa Zhenbing can also understand that what is important in this era is fairness. And even in later generations, only those who pay more can enjoy better services, and these immigrants did not pay much, mainly because Taiwan came to help advance the immigration fees, so naturally they are not qualified to ask for any good cabins up. In fact, to some extent, being able to live in the warehouse is already very good. But Sa Zhenbing is different, he lives in the first class cabin, because he came to inspect Taiwan on behalf of the big bosses of the Beiyang Navy.
"How many people have you emigrated?" Sa Zhenbing asked.
"Over the past few months, we have had more than 200,000 people come to Taiwan from the mainland. They will gradually learn various skills and then join in the construction of Taiwan. However, Taiwan currently lacks any talents, and all kinds of workers They are all eager to recruit. Even if they have no work experience, they can be trained by our engineers in Taiwan, and then learn various skills and then join the construction team.”
"Two hundred thousand? There must be more and more in the future, so this is really incredible!"
Sa Zhenbing can also imagine that more than 200,000 people have come to Taiwan in batches, and Taiwan has become a big construction site. And according to what the service lady said, Taiwan is already developing rapidly, and they are going to train skilled workers. As a navy, Sa Zhenbing is also very familiar with industry. Of course, he knows that the reason why the British are so powerful is because they are the most powerful navy. But what supports their powerful navy is their world's number one industrial foundation, so the industrial foundation is the real foundation for a country to be strong.
And Taiwan is cultivating a large number of skilled workers, obviously also consolidating its own industrial foundation. Once the industrial base is sufficient, it can be expanded at any time. It took the British hundreds of years to complete the accumulation of primitive capital. This Taiwan does not know how to get so much money. And the funds are second to none. Where are there so many talents? Training 200,000 skilled workers will cost a lot of human resources. How can Taiwan produce so many teachers for training?
"Taiwan, really ambitious! It seems that UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Governor Wang Guorui has received strong support from foreigners, but what country are they from?" Sa Zhenbing thought.
Sa Zhenbing absolutely did not believe that Wang Guorui made this up by himself, after all, such a huge resource was not something that Wang Guorui could produce by himself. Especially those human resources, which are extremely scarce, how can they be taken out casually. Without the strong support of other countries, it would be impossible for Wang Guorui to obtain so many things on his own. This is also what ordinary people think. Ordinary people don't know such things as the Red Police Base at all, so they naturally think that other countries are involved, otherwise it would be impossible to produce so many things.
Sa Zhenbing really can't imagine how ambitious Taiwan will be in the future. Because it can have such a strong strength, with 200,000 skilled workers, it can completely support a relatively large industrial system. As long as there is this industrial system, it is completely possible to continue to expand outwards, and then continue to plunder more things. And Sa Zhenbing can also imagine that Taiwan's future ambitions are definitely not small. And Sa Zhenbing felt a little excited when he thought about it, because it would be a great cause if he could join in!
When Sa Zhenbing came to the engine compartment of the passenger ship, he found a dull-looking person handling the engine here, and then he took the initiative to say hello. (To be continued.) xh118
