Zhang Yikun said: "New Guangzhou is still a bit far away. I think the first step is to build a Guangzhou Industrial Park. It will be located far outside the city. The first phase of the project will of course be a building materials factory - first for Great World and Ziji.
We will build supporting fonts and build some light industrial enterprises in the future. I remember the Ministry of Light Industry also mentioned that we should make full use of Guangdong’s abundant agricultural products. Aren’t food processing plants and textile factories both very suitable projects?”
In the short term, these enterprises are to provide products to the big world and wholesale business. In the long term, the impact of industrialized production in factories on the handicraft industry in Guangdong will be devastating. This devastating productivity will ultimately have a huge impact on the entire Guangdong economy and society.
influence, ultimately contributing to the disintegration of traditional society.
Hong Hongyin said: "As for the location, I suggest choosing a place not far from the big world so that we can support each other in the event of an armed conflict. And it must be built beside the Pearl River and a water transport terminal to facilitate the transportation of raw materials and finished products.
Shipping."
As for the specific construction location, from a planning perspective, of course it must be built downstream and downwind of the Great World to prevent heavy smoke and wastewater from affecting the Great World. The two are 3 to 4 kilometers apart. They are connected by better roads.
In the future, a small railway can be built to connect.
Then everyone had detailed discussions on a series of details such as water supply and drainage plans, lighting and cooling, and formed a general plan.
"After we sort it out, we'll send someone back to Lingao for approval immediately, right?" Zhang Yikun said excitedly.
"It must be given to Guo Yi first." Mei Lin reminded, "He is the person in charge of Guangzhou Station."
"Oh, oh, right. I almost forgot." Zhang Yikun shook his head, "This is an overstep. I haven't worked for many years, I have been doing my own thing, and I am no longer sensitive to this kind of thing."
The plan was quickly approved by Guo Yi. Then it was approved by the Planning Institute. Zhang Yikun personally went back to Lingao to "send approval" - logically speaking, he only needed to hand over the plan to Lingao who regularly traveled between Lingao and Guangzhou.
It was enough to use the traffic officer. But at Guo Yi's suggestion, he went back to Lingao in person.
Guangzhou World is an unplanned project. Although it has been approved by the Senate and the Executive Committee, based on Guo Yi's experience, if the person in charge of this kind of project does not personally implement it, the specific implementation will be intentionally or unintentionally delayed.
Finally - the tasks of the production department are very tight, and all demand units are closely watching. Guangzhou World wants to start work as soon as possible, so Zhang Yikun has to go to the "run department" in person.
With Zhang Yikun's hard work, the projects were finally implemented one by one. Wu De agreed with his suggestion to launch a few factories first to complete the basic work - from his point of view, this would reduce the need for existing materials in Lingao.
Demand pressure is equivalent to delaying the construction of the entire world.
It will take at least half a year from factory land acquisition, start of construction to formal production to form stable production capacity. Only then can Guangzhou World officially enter the construction stage, and the material demand pressure generated by it will be delayed until the second half of 1631.
The whole plan is to first carry out land acquisition and three connections and one leveling work starting in March. Construction workers, except for the core Lingao construction engineering team, will all be recruited locally. After the completion of the project, these people can be converted into factory workers on the spot. The company's
The Planning Institute will also arrange unplanned production of the required machinery and equipment. The first batch of building materials will be purchased locally in Guangdong, and special building materials will be shipped from Lingao. The Planning Institute will be responsible for the specific allocation. The Planning Institute will also hold a coordination meeting to discuss the tasks from brick and tile factories to wood processing
The factory and woodwork factory will dispatch veteran technicians to Guangzhou for equipment installation and technical guidance. At the same time, some indigenous workers will be dispatched as the backbone of the new enterprise's production force.
Cheng Dong also allocated the allocation and foreign exchange quota for the Big World project. Of course, these allocations are far from enough. They can only be regarded as a start-up capital.
The Guangzhou Great World project was reported to Li Fengjie through Li Xijue's channel. Li Xijue reported Guo Yi's plan in detail. Li Fengjie was reading when he heard the news, and listened to his report without saying a word.
He didn't even move his eyebrows. Li Xijue knew that these big guys were all about "having the strictness of the city" and practiced the art of making things with pretentiousness. So he just stood respectfully and didn't speak.
After flipping through three or four pages of the book, the governor finally spoke:
"What do you think about this?"
"Of course it's best not to allow him..." Although Li Xijue was forced by Guo Yi to accept this project on the day of the meeting, he felt that there could be no ambiguity on this matter. He vaguely felt that there was something behind the Guangzhou Dajie incident.
There is a deep conspiracy hidden by the Australians. I'm afraid it's not as simple as building a big store like "Ziminglou". The trouble is that they want to build a Guangzhou Ao outside Guangzhou. He quickly added
:
"This is an example of Australians using the ground to expose water-damaged goods. This is a lesson learned from the past. Please learn from it."
Li Fengjie twisted his beard and said nothing. Li Xijue knew what he was thinking. The Guangdong officialdom was all frightened by the bandits. Last year, the bandits invaded the surrounding areas of Guangzhou, occupied Humen, bombarded Guangzhou, and caused chaos in all counties.
In Gou Tiao, many gentry were killed and a large amount of property was plundered. This matter had alarmed the imperial court. Fortunately, the sky was high and the emperor was far away. The emperor was worried about the rogue bandits and Donglu every day and did not bother to interfere with the affairs here. Even He Rubin
The disastrous defeat in Qiongzhou has not yet been given a specific explanation by the court. According to Li Fengjie's master in Beijing and his friends in the same year, there is a high possibility that the matter will just go away - although the officers and soldiers lost troops and generals, there is "
"Losing a master" but not "losing territory" after all, it always seemed to the imperial court to be much stronger than other provinces where there were rogue bandits. However, the responsibility must always be investigated: He Zhen may be reduced to a "waste general".
There are a lot of bad things in Qiongzhou, and the attacks by the Australians around Guangzhou are also described as "sea pirates taking advantage of the victory to attack the pirates." Anyway, this kind of thing has happened in the past - hundreds of Japanese pirates roamed across southern Zhili and continued to attack
When we arrived at the gates of Nanjing, the imperial court did not feel that the sky was about to fall.
Li Fengjie doesn't care about He Rubin's future. How to maintain stability in Guangdong, especially around Guangzhou, is what he is most concerned about. Last time, he secretly obtained "territory cession and compensation" to settle the matter. This time, he would be offended for such a thing.
Kun thief, if we can't protect him, they will make new tricks. He won't be able to deal with the court.
But he would not say this to Li Xijue. After a long while, he made an indifferent expression:
"Why should they ask me for such a trivial matter? Let them go to Prefect Yu."
Governor Yu was Yu Baocun, the prefect of Guangzhou. Li Fengjie made up his mind that whether it was land acquisition to build a world or not, it was a local matter in Guangzhou, and Yu Baocun should have taken charge of it.
So the matter came to Yu Baocun's head. Of course, Li Xijue couldn't run away. Not only did he have to go to Magistrate Yu to give him instructions, he also had to try to ensure that he correctly understood the leader's intentions: obviously the governor was not prepared to negotiate with Kun on this matter.
The thief confronts him.
"The land is here and here." Lu Yizhong, who was ordered to discuss the details with Yu Baocun, showed complete disregard for Magistrate Yu's surprise. He took out the map he brought with him: a simplified version of Guangzhou
and suburban maps. All the topography, landforms and residential areas outside Guangzhou are specifically marked.
Yu Baocun had already been informed by Li Fengjie, and secretly cursed the governor for putting a hot potato into his hands again. However, this was originally his responsibility, and there was no reason to refuse. Besides, he still had to count on Governor Li to "leave out" for the governor in Gao.
"Don't take any eye drops for this matter. For this matter, he has paid tribute to many valuable Australian goods belonging to the governor's concubine.
He paid attention to the places pointed out by Lu Yizhong. Both of them were outside Dadongmen and right on the riverside. Yu Baocun had never seen a modern map, but at least he had seen a geographical map. He looked carefully at the two places requested by the Australians.
They face each other across the river and are separated by several miles.
Yu Baocun was a local official. Although he couldn't understand the scale, he could roughly estimate the land area that the Australians wanted based on the surrounding terrain. It was estimated that there were a thousand acres of land in total. Most of it was official land, so it was not too troublesome to get it done.
.Yu Baocun breathed a sigh of relief.
"What Dongzhu Guo means is that he is willing to pay for all these plots, but he just wants to ask the prefect to cooperate with it," Lu Yizhong said.
"Easy to say, easy to say." Yu Baocun nodded repeatedly, secretly scolding Lu Yizhong for being so shameless, and all of a sudden he defected to the Kun thief. However, this man could not be offended in the past, and now he could not be offended even more. He had no choice but to agree again and again with an apologetic smile on his face.
Several people got together to discuss how to make this matter justified and satisfactory. Of course, the Australian people's purchase of land cannot be mentioned publicly, it must have a name. After thinking about it, Yu Baocun suggested using the name of building a commercial port. The reason was that the previous
At this stage, Guangdong was hit by military disasters. In recent years, natural disasters have become more frequent. The people have been displaced. The court has repeatedly raised troops, and finances are tight. Now the only way is to expand financial resources and increase commercial taxes to repay the court. Therefore, it was decided to set up a commercial port on the bank of the Pearl River.
Investment, construction, operation and trading.
This reason was fair and upright, and it was not difficult to implement it. Yu Baocun asked Panyu and the magistrates and masters of Nanhai County to discuss it together. Several people met to discuss and decided to allocate official land for sale as much as possible to avoid getting rich when buying land.
A dispute arose - everyone knew that the Australians actually bought the land, so it was better to be careful.
With the help of local officials, the land purchase work went smoothly. Guo Yi knew that in Ming Dynasty, even if you have foreign guns and cannons, things will go very slowly if they are not properly lubricated. After all, he cannot just drag people out and shoot them.
. Therefore, he hinted to the main local officials through Lu Yizhong that the Guangzhou World project will be raised from the outside. If they are interested, they can enjoy the right to purchase and obtain "subscription letters" in advance.
