272 Scheme
For a long time, Li Mu didn't think that the little fat man's factory would pose any threat to the horse weapons company, and Li Mu even thought that with the waste wood of the little fat man, it was uncertain whether the factory could be put into production. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Li Mu still ignored the Qing Empire behind the little fat man after all, considering the huge demand for weapons in the Qing Empire, and considering the power of the Alcohol Palace's mansion in the Qing Empire, Li Mu suddenly found that the little fat man's factory really did not worry about orders.
Li Mu's Junma Arms Company now seems to be good, with two loyal customers, the US government and the Cuban government, but in terms of the amount of purchases, I am afraid that the US government and the Cuban government combined cannot compare with the Qing government.
This is the standard backing of a big tree to enjoy the shade.
However, Li Mu is not too worried, the new rifle developed by the Junma Weapons Company has been basically finalized, as long as it passes the test of the US War Department, it can be mass-produced, Li Mu has been preparing for this day for several months, the plant, machines, workers, and materials are ready, just wait for the order to start production, when the existing weapons are about to be eliminated, if the Qing government does not want to lag too far behind, sooner or later it will still ask Li Mu to come here.
When the "Sea Ranger" sailed into Guantanamo Bay, it was a lively scene on the pier.
The bitumen ships with their own biological and chemical weapons effects are no longer allowed to dock at the Guantanamo Pier, but will continue to travel into Guantanamo Bay until Kemanella is allowed to dock, and now the road has been repaired to Kemanera and is extending towards Guantanamo City, and the pungent smell that envelops Guantanamo City has finally disappeared.
Docked at the dock and unloading is a freighter, which seems to be transporting the artillery to be used on the battery, the caliber of these guns is not large, the maximum caliber is six inches, about 150 millimeters, as a shore defense gun, this caliber seems to be a bit small, but it is enough for Guantanamo Bay, the narrowest point of the entrance to Guantanamo Bay is only less than three kilometers, if it is not for the defense of the sea, the placement of 75 mm artillery on the anticline is enough to block the entrance to Guantanamo Bay.
There are also several cargo ships waiting to be unloaded near the wharf, which appear to be carrying cement, steel bars and other construction materials, which were ordered by Green Giles from Li Mu, who purchased these goods from the United States and sold them to Green Giles, and the profit can be more than doubled.
The "Sea Ranger" did not need to grab the dock with the freighter, there was a small dock near the barracks for the "Sea Ranger" to dock, and before the ship docked, Li Mu saw Green Giles and Will riding out of the barracks and heading straight to the dock.
After getting off the boat, it was naturally another greeting, and when they went to the living room of Li Mu's house to sit down with the guests, Li Mu introduced Old Man Chen and Wu Zideng to Green Giles.
"No, this will interfere with our normal work order, as the supreme administrator of Guantanamo, I can't allow such a thing to happen, aren't those Chinese workers working in Guantanamo still not at ease?" Green Giles was not so good at talking, and rejected Old Man Chen's request.
"Mr. Green, we're not targeting anyone, but it's our job, so please forgive me." Green Giles spoke in English, and Old Man Chen couldn't answer, so Wu Zideng spoke on his behalf.
"Hehe, I'm sorry, it's also part of my job to ensure the normal operation of the working order." Green Giles didn't go in the oil and salt, and used Wu Zideng's words to block Wu Zideng.
"Okay Green, let them see, the inspector has promised that if the Chinese workers in Guantanamo are not abused, then they will increase the export of chemicals, and you can get 10,000 workers in three months from now, you should know that the Chinese workers are the most capable." Li Mu came out to play a round, this is part of Li Mu and Green Giles's strategy, there is no benefit, Li Mu is impossible to give in.
"Ten thousand, well, if it doesn't affect the normal working process, then it sounds acceptable." Green Giles went down the stairs when he had a step.
Although the United States of Cuba has unified Cuba, completely abolished slavery, and alleviated the shortage of human resources, it is really angry to get used to the high efficiency of Chinese workers, and then look at those lazy Cubans and blacks.
Although there are more Chinese in Li Mu's hands, there are more places to use people, such as Grand Bahama Island, Pine Island, Trinidad Island, etc., which need to be built everywhere and need to be filled by Chinese, even if the Chinese in Li Mu's hands are doubled, it is not enough.
Arrange for Old Man Chen and Wu Zideng to rest, and Li Mu called Li Bora and Bai Qi, who were about to go to Grand Bahama Island and Trinidad Island separately, to give them vaccinations, so as not to make mistakes when they get it.
"After Bai arrived on the island of Trinidad, I must cooperate with Ford Robbins to remove all Indian laborers and black slaves from the island, and if those people refuse to go, then force them to go, and within three months, I will see only Chinese and whites on Trinidad, and the number of whites must be strictly controlled, and the number of whites must never exceed the number of Chinese." Li Mu was murderous and did not leave a way for Indians and blacks on the island of Trinidad to live.
Ford Robbins will replace Gabriel Cotton, become the administrator of Trinidad, after all, Gabriel Cottonn is in charge of the ocean shipping company, and he is also a person from Able, Li Mu handed over Trinidad to Gabriel Cotton, he was really not at ease, so he chose the more reliable Ford Robbins.
Ford Robbins was a former member of Nelson's subordinate, serving as a congressman in Anderson, South Carolina before the Civil War.
Like Nelson, after the Civil War, Ford Robbins, who was also a Democrat, was ostracized in South Carolina, and Ford Robbins was unwilling to sink in, so he went to Cuba to start a second business.
There are many people like Nelson and Ford Robbins, Li Mu has a lot of subordinates, and there are many more people who want to join, but unfortunately Li Mu does not have enough positions.
"Don't worry, Reem, I promise to give you a clean island of Trinidad." Bai Qi smiled happily without the slightest psychological barrier.
"Not for me, but for us-" Li Mu said earnestly, seizing every opportunity to instill the consciousness of the emperor and the Han Dynasty in Bai Qi: "Go back and read more books, you will know how great we Chinese are, when we wear gold and silver, foreigners still don't cover their bodies, so these foreign devils are not afraid, although we are in South America thousands of miles away from home, but we must also strive for self-improvement, if we want people to look up, first of all, we must respect ourselves, Trinidad is not what we robbed, but we bought it with real money, So don't be polite, straighten your back, I'll support you in everything. ”
Are Chinese really worse than foreigners?
It's impossible, the reason why Chinese people are short of breath now is because they are at a psychological disadvantage, and it is not easy to stand up when they see a foreigner who has not spoken before he speaks.
Li Mu wants to improve the social status of the Chinese, Li Mu alone can't do it, more Chinese people need to work together, Pine Island, Trinidad Island, Grand Bahama Island is just the beginning, in the future, more areas or islands will become the land of the Chinese, if you don't stand up, how to grab food from the bowl of foreigners?
"Indians, blacks -- maybe we can use Indians and blacks to drive out the French first, and then get rid of the Indians and blacks." Li Bora's heart is the blackest, and he still knows how to lead the trouble.
"No, we want a clean island of Trinidad, but it can't be a Chinese-only island of Trinidad, and in order to dilute the Chinese background in Trinidad, we have to make sure that there are some white people, so that I have a reason to lobby Congress." Li Mu's plan is big, and Li Bora can't understand it now.
Li Mu originally wanted to "sell" Trinidad to the United States of Cuba, so that Trinidad would have a reliable identity, and Li Mu could let go of the development of Trinidad without worrying about whether the British would regret it.
But an incident that happened last month changed Li Mu's mind.
At the beginning of this year, the President of the Dominican Republic, Báez, visited Washington and expressed his desire to join the United States, and Ulysses Grant agreed to Báez's request that after the Civil War, there would be a large number of black slaves in the South of the United States to be settled, and the U.S. Government would help the Dominican Republic repay its $1.5 million foreign debt, and then the Black Americans from the South could be sent to Dominica.
Last month, Grant sent the proposal to Congress for review, and I don't know what the old members of Congress thought about it, and they rejected Grant's proposal.
Although Grant's proposal was unsuccessful, it undoubtedly opened a new door for Li Mu, and if Trinidad could become the 38th state of the United States, then it would be of great benefit to Li Mu.
The first is the British threat, and with the United States as a backing, then no matter what the development of Trinidad becomes, the British will no longer be able to make a fuss.
The second is the Senate seats, the U.S. Constitution stipulates that no matter the size of the state, no matter how many people there are, each state can have two Senate seats, if Li Mu's dream comes true, then there will always be two seats in the Senate that belong to Li Mu.
As for the obligations after joining the United States, there is no need to worry about this, the United States is a federal country, each state has its own state government, has the power to make its own laws, as long as it does not violate the Constitution, even the president of the United States has no right to interfere, so the states of the United States have a very large autonomy, if it were not for this, there would be no Civil War.
"Bola, when you arrive at Grand Bahama Island, first settle the brothers, and then start to expand to Abaco Island and Eleuthera Island, leave the question of ownership alone, and take advantage of the population first-" Li Mu did not forget the beach club, those beautiful islands in the Bahamas must not be left to the Bahamians.
Uh, well, can be left to the Chinese in the Bahamas.
