The journey starts from the Titanic

The cargo from Shanghai to Nanhua accounted for a lot of ships, you know.We can only squeeze out some ships to carry passengers.Even so, we are already accused of selling piglets."Lin Yimin explained.

Wang Yaqiao frowned, a little unwilling to give up, and said: "Then can I charter the boat? The Axe Gang will be responsible for transporting people."

"Oh?"

Lin Yimin looked at Wang Yaqiao with a firm face, feeling a little surprised.The Axe Gang has indeed made a lot of money in recent years, and Wang Yaqiao also has a surplus in his hands, otherwise his tone would not be that big.

What made Lin Yimin sigh was that looking at this dwarf's serious face, he seemed very determined.

"This is naturally no problem. No matter who arrives in Nanhua, Nanhua welcomes them. It's just that you organize a fleet, and the money will definitely be recovered from the passengers. I'm afraid there will be trouble."

Lin Yimin did not object to Wang Yaqiao's suggestion, but was a little worried.

The immigration ferry tickets organized by Meihua Company are not free, only the cost price is charged, but most people still cannot afford it.Meihua Company allows them to pay first, and they will all board the ship, and then deduct them from their wages when they arrive in South China.

Generally speaking, after an ordinary worker has worked for two or three months, he can pay off the ship's wages owed to Meihua Company, and then he can save money.

Of course, the money is also stored in the accounts of American and Chinese Bank. Except for a notebook, workers rarely get a real ocean.

However, most people don’t go abroad for the purpose of sending money back home. When the family replied that they had received the money they sent back from South China from the American and Chinese Bank, the workers would feel at ease and save the money in the United States. In the Chinese Bank.

After thinking about it, Lin Yimin said again: "The Axe Gang can participate in the organization of immigration. I welcome you to organize a fleet, but one thing must be explained. The price of the ticket you charge from each passenger must not be higher than that of Meihua Company. 20% of the ticket price.

We will monitor the whole process, and the workers sent will also cross-examine them. We must confirm that they are voluntary and will never allow human trafficking.In addition, we will break up the arrangements for these workers, and try to avoid grouping."

It seems that I feel Lin Yimin's distrust of him. Am I a human trafficker?Wang Yaqiao felt a little uneasy, frowned, but nodded.

Lin Yimin has been paying attention to Wang Yaqiao’s expression, seeming to know what the other person is thinking, and he explained to Yan Yueshen: "I don’t believe in you, but in human nature. Human nature is greedy. Even if you are kind, you can ensure that the people below think Must be like you?"

Wang Yaqiao nodded thoughtfully, and accepted Lin Yimin’s explanation. He still had doubts in his heart, and asked: “Then how did I hear that the people from Guangdong, Guangxi and Fujian were all moved to the village and they were not dispersed. what."

"That's because they don't belong to our employees, they have their own land, it's none of our business. Of course, these land is also purchased from the government or allocated to them by the government.

In previous wars, the government distributed land to soldiers and other personnel who participated in the fighting, and at the same time sold a large amount of land.If you have money now and buy land from the government, it will be a question of how many people you move over."

Lin Yimin explained.

The situation of village relocation mentioned by Wang Yaqiao is normal in South China. The workers who went to Nanyang with Meihua Company in the early days are now shaking. They spotted business opportunities and joined hands with familiar fellow villagers or workers to jointly purchase large tracts of land or contract Meihua. The company’s farm became the boss.

In order to raise funds for industrial construction, Meihua Company sold its farms and land on a large scale, and used the land in exchange for the savings that the workers had kept in the Bank of America and China over the past decade.

"Equivalent to them working for Meihua Company, Meihua Company will give them the land?" Wang Yaqiao's eyes lit up.

"That's right!" Lin Yimin smiled and nodded, "These are all the early workers. They are now property owners, the group who got rich first. They bought so much land, naturally Isn’t it normal for my hometown to find someone to help them cultivate?"

"I understand." Wang Yaqiao nodded, and somehow understood why Yu Likui and his brothers kept urging themselves to let the old Anhui countryside Nanyang?It turns out that the earlier you go, the more benefits.

Thinking of this, he stopped talking nonsense. After returning, he organized Anhui fellows to immigrate to Nanhua through the Axe Gang.

A week later, an organization called the Anhui Labor Federation was established in Shanghai. Wang Yaqiao was the chairman, and most of the members were members of the Axe Gang.

The name is very loud, but it is actually an immigration company.According to the agreement reached with Lin Yimin, Meihua Company made a symbolic investment of 100 million shares and sent a financial representative to the Anhui Labor Federation to ensure that this force would not break away from Meihua Company's monitoring.

To Wang Yaqiao’s excitement, Meihua Company credited two 5,000-ton old ships to the Anhui Labor Federation and sent some sailors to allow the Anhui Labor Federation to have its own fleet and build a channel for bankrupt Anhui farmers to reach South China.

At the same time, he also purchased three inland ships for transportation between Laiwu, Anqing and other places and Shanghai.In fact, it was also a channel for Meihua to penetrate Anhui, so Lin Yimin gave the Anhui Labor Association strong support.

Every month, the Anhui Labor Federation will arrange one or two flights to transport immigrants to Nanyang.On the return journey, Nanyang food or other products are shipped back to Shanghai, Anhui and other places, occupying part of the market in the Yangtze River Channel.

As for the assassination activities that Wang Yaqiao himself was keen on, after consideration and discussion with the absinthe Taoist, Lin Yimin received a group of militants from the Axe Gang to train in South China in order to cope with the future situation.

"Wang Yaqiao is a wild wolf. Feeding him big will not eat us back?" Absinthe was a little worried about Lin Yimin's vigorous support of the Axe Gang.He can foresee that in a few years, the Axe Gang will definitely not be just a gang, but a force that cannot be underestimated.

"Even if he is a wolf, we are not the first to bite. There is nothing to worry about. However, it is indeed necessary to strengthen the control of the Anhui Labor Association. There should be our people in it, are you right?"

Lin Yimin smiled.

In Shanghai, the government does not have much credibility. On the contrary, gangs are a force that cannot be ignored. In the case of a dominance of the Qinggang, supporting the Axe Gang has become the natural choice of Meihua Company.

"I'll make an idea." Wormwood nodded and walked away quietly.

If you are a wolf, you have to eat meat. If the gang does not smuggle, how can they be called a gang?As for Wang Yaqiao's assurance that the Anhui Labor Service Association will not traffic humans, Lin Yimin left it alone.

In fact, even if Meihua and the South China government strictly supervise immigrants and severely punish human trafficking, some people are actually trafficked to South China.

The difference is that one has a certificate and the other is undocumented. Meihua is the largest human trafficking group, but its purchaser is the South China government, so it will be treated more beautifully and brightly.

Don't be taboo about this, this is how the United States came.

Lin Yimin also made a special trip to Chongming Island. After a close talk with the owner of Chongming Island, Meihua Company sent a ship to take the students and teachers on the island to Nanhua, including the stock market losers who committed suicide by jumping into the sea last year. People are somewhat useful.

After Chongming Island is completely cleared, a new batch of orphans and children will be sent in. After a period of training, they will be sent to Nanhua. The remote Chongming Island will become the source of Meihua’s "smuggling" of the seeds of future national construction. The transfer station.

Chapter 141 Shaoxing Xu Family

The old family residence of Xu Xilin, Shaoxing, Zhejiang.Xu Xilin is dead, but the influence of the Xu family in Shaoxing and Zhejiang has not diminished. The three brothers Xu Wei, Xu Xiqi, and Xu Xiji are still local celebrities. Xu Wei is an educational scholar, Xu Xiqi is the president of the Chamber of Commerce, and Xu Xiji is engaged in pharmacy. All are talents.

Xu Xilin once took their brothers to study in Japan, join the Revolutionary Society together, and revolutionize together.He not only influenced the Xu family brothers, but also trained a large number of revolutionary talents in Shaoxing Datong Academy.

"Everyone has read Bicheng's letter and asked, should Nanhua take a trip?" Xu Wei asked.

"Why not? Now Nanhua is doing a lot of construction, building railways, and setting up iron factories, attracting a lot of people to go to Nanyang. I heard that Wenzhou businessmen have all gone. I want to go and see if the opportunity is good, too. Invest locally."

Xu Xiqi said.

Businessmen are the most practical. Businessmen in Jiangsu and Zhejiang are well-informed. The news of Meihua Company’s investment in Shanghai and Guangzhou cannot be concealed from them. Someone in the Shaoxing Chamber of Commerce also proposed to do business with Meihua Company.

"I don't care, I only care about pharmaceutical research." Xu Xiji said lightly, "But it's best to ask my sister-in-law about this matter."

"Of course!" Xu Wei nodded.

The sister-in-law of the Xu family was named Wang Zhenhan, the wife of Xu Xilin, who had stayed in Japan with her husband, joined the Liberation Association, and participated in the anti-Qing revolution together. She was a rare heroine.

Wang Zhenhan and Qiu Jin made a good relationship, but it was a pity that her husband sacrificed and her good friend also sacrificed.After Xu Xilin's death, she raised her son Xu Xuewen by herself.The Xu family brothers have always admired this sister-in-law very much.

Xu Xiji added: "My nephew is 18 this year, so I should go out to meet the world. Didn’t Lu Bicheng say that Nanhua is planning to build a dedicated university? The dedicated school is the hard work of my elder brother, but unfortunately it was burned by the fire. This opportunity to rebuild, although it is far away in Nanyang, our Xu family should participate in it."

"That's right." Xu Xiqi agreed.

With Lu Bicheng's care, whether it is the continuation of Xu Xilin's ideal of running a school or the development of the descendants of the Xu family, it will be guaranteed.

Seeing both brothers agree, Xu Wei nodded solemnly.Now he is the head of the Xu family, and he has to take on more responsibilities, including the enthusiasm of the planned university.

Then the Xu family brothers found their sister-in-law Wang Zhenhan. He was surprised to hear that the Xu family brothers were going to Nanyang, and he hesitated.

"Second uncle, are you going to Nanhua?" Xu Xuewen looked at several uncles with excitement.

"You also know Nanhua?" Xu Wei asked with a smile.
