"Have you been to Shanghai? That's enough."

Zhu Xianhai smiled.

"This business is very simple. I plan to hire a group of laborers from China. You go to Shanghai to help me bring people here. I will pay two pesos for each person. How about it?"

What is the biggest problem with Nanhua’s development right now?

It's nothing more than a short population and a poor population.

No one, all plans are castles in the air. What if you create a foundation here?

In the end, it will still be cheaper for others due to insufficient manpower.

Only with a sufficient population can South China develop. To be more precise, it can survive on this land.

In the Three Kingdoms of the Pampas Prairie in the future, human factors directly determine the future destiny of the three parties.

How to develop inadequate manpower?

Relying on these thousand Chinese workers?

Even if they all married their wives from the Mapuche people, when will they be born?

Time is not waiting for me, and birth cannot be born.

You still have to find a way from the country.

Fortunately, there is a war in the country now, but fortunately, the country has a large population and poor people everywhere... but the distance is a bit far.

But no matter what, we must try our best to attract people from China.

At present, this is a rare vacuum of "imperialist" forces, and the Argentines still cannot notice this. This is the opportunity for Zhu Xianhai to rise and must be seized.

Many opportunities are gone once they are missed.

You must not miss the opportunity!

"Two pesos freight? Sir, you have to know that this is not from Brazil to this place! It is definitely impossible for the cabin to be crowded like the last time. I think the freight for two pesos seems to be a little less."

After having experience as a transporter, Luke naturally knew the limits of the "Anlis". After a long-term sailing of more than a month, he would definitely not be as crowded as last time.

"And as far as I know, it costs five pesos to transport a Chinese labor force from Hong Kong to San Francisco! The tickets are at least fifty yuan!"

Obviously, Luke had long known about the contract labor freight, after all, he had done it on that route.

"That's different. I'm hiring you! And you know that if you want to transport people, the ship will definitely need to be transformed."

Zhu Xianhai said while spreading out a drawing.

"Look, my initial plan is to install such a bunk bed in the cabin, each bed is 2 feet wide (about 50 cm) long, 2.5 feet high, two beds in a row, leaving a 2-foot aisle between each row of beds..."

To put it bluntly, it is the advanced version of the "multi-layer board" of bunk beds. It is very simple to build such beds - wood, and there are so many hillsides around Nanhua. Moreover, the craftsmen here are used to building such beds. They sleep in bunk beds, which are just a little wider.

"This, this, the bed is actually made like this?"

Luke was stunned again. He had never seen a bunk bed before.

Don't look at the simple bunk beds, but in the nineteenth century it was definitely a "black technology". Although no particular person had invented bunk beds first, it is certain that it was not until the late nineteenth century that bunk beds were used in the army and then slowly spread.

Sailors in this era sleep... hammocks seem to save space, but in fact they are the same waste of space. Multiple beds are the real rational use of space.

Of course, the standard of the beds Zhu Xianhai made for the immigrant boat is almost the same as the standard of the World War II troop transport ship, and it is even more crowded. There is no room for movement except the aisles. But there is no way. The immigrant boat is not a cruise ship, so enjoying travel at sea? Is it possible this year?

"You said, if you install such a bunk bed in the cabin of the "Anlis", how many people can you transport this trip? There will be more than a thousand people, right?"

"No, absolutely more than that, the length of the "Anlis" is 276 feet, 50.5 feet wide and 26 feet deep. If such a bed is installed in a double-layer cargo hold, each cargo hold can at least..."

After calculating in his mind for a little, Luke almost screamed without losing his voice.

Make a fortune!

No doubt, one voyage is enough to make Luke a rich man!

"Mr. Steven, there is another problem,"

Taking a deep breath, Luke said.

"When will we set out!"

When faced with money, most people will make choices at the first time, which is almost instinct.

"This is the correct way to use money!"

Once again, after successfully convinced others, Zhu Xianhai couldn't help but sigh.

The cruel and ruthless reality tells him a truth. If you want to become stronger, you must rely on your money ability...

...

Fang Zhanbo was very proud!

This kind of compliment comes from being highly valued!

Um!

Now he is the confidant of Boss Zhu, no, he is an aide.

Although Boss Zhu claims to be the boss, in his opinion, he is the lord of Nanhua, and this place of foreigners is a land without a home.

Isn’t the lord of a place the princes of a place?

Although there are fewer people and a little more deviated, he is also the lord of the same place.

And he is himself!

As the lord's aide, he can naturally show what he has learned, and as a scholar, he can indeed show what he has learned.

What about recording books? Land and mu. In the past few dozen days, he has been imitating the rules of the Qing Dynasty and creating the land and mu book of Nanhua. Of course, the only thing that makes him uncomfortable is William Hansen - the Countess brought it from Buenos Aires. He said he was an engineer, but he interfered in his affairs. He said that the land and mu book he recorded was simply waste paper and needed to be re-measured.

Measurement? What is the quantity? The Qing Dynasty has been measuring this for hundreds of years.

But then when the guy used a diorama, ruler or something to draw Nanhua's floor map, Fang Zhanbo was stunned. The drawing was too accurate.

As a result, this is the study of the barbarians, and we are not good at it.

What we are good at is giving advice to our lord.

This is a small skill for me.

"People are the foundation of the country. The fertile land of South China is a thousand miles away, and the population is small. Recruiting people from the country is indeed a good way to enrich the population."

As soon as he heard that the lord wanted to transport people to come, Fang Zhanbo immediately agreed.

"The lord is very good about this, it should be like this."

Although he hadn't read for a few years, Wang Dewen, as the earliest team of Boss Zhu, naturally gained his trust and said now.

"The solution is good, but it will definitely cost a lot of money, right?"

money!

Money is the tough guy!

"Yes, it costs money to recruit people from the mainland. It costs money to send them over by boat. It costs a lot, lord."

Li Fugui couldn't come up with any ideas, but he still expressed support at the moment.

"As long as you can use it, you can give it any time."

"Where is Shuda?"

Zhu Xianhai glanced at Qian Deshan. Like Fang Zhanbo, this guy is the only two scholar among Chinese workers. He even passed the imperial examination. However, unlike Fang Zhanbo calling himself "lord", this guy seems to be a little "reserved".

"Well, spending money must be spent, but it depends on what to do."

Facing the boss's sight, Qian Deshan pondered.

"If you change the method, not only will it not cost much money, but it may also achieve twice the result with half the effort."
