Those potential investors are very satisfied with the 34% annual return, although it is not very high, but after all, infrastructure is only an additional binding product for mining, metallurgical and infrastructure investment, not the return rate and investment direction of the whole company.

On average, it can only be higher, and you can't be wrong about that.

As for the cost of additional bound non-profit investments, many large companies also have them. Even the Nanyang Company, which is popular with many people, has military obligations: in the event of a foreign war, the fleet of the Nanyang Company must be dispatched by the government of the Republic, and the construction of some strongholds of the Nanyang Company does not have full ownership, and the army has the right to station.

It's just that there was no war going on at this time, so the additional cost of this binding doesn't seem to be apparent, but it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

The only problem is that most of the infrastructure investment is in or near the coastal cities of Min County, where the activities of the Mexican Party are most rampant, and where all kinds of party members who spend money to support them collect detailed information.

Most of the canals or roads that are built are estimated to be profitable, and this is not a problem. After all, this is a company for the purpose of making profits from social capital, not a state-owned enterprise, so naturally those meaningless places where poor returns are lower than capital will not be built, and the attitude of shareholders should still be considered.

The yield of some canal roads is definitely lower than that of the mining canal that made the model, but it is acceptable on average.

It's just that some people have calculated a little, in fact, there are infrastructure investments near the capital or near the old capital city with a basic rate of return not lower than the canal in the mining area.

Some investors who are not promoters can see it, and there is no reason why those who are promoters can't see it. Clear-eyed people feel that this is clearly pulling the capital of the capital to Min County, and some people even suspect that Chen Jian and others are deliberately dragging down the investment in the capital.

Some people pointed out pointedly that if this continues, with the development of Min County, the possibility of capital flowing into commerce, handicrafts, construction, and mining will become higher and higher. In the north, the rich capital either flows south or into the land, and the rest of the investment is neither led nor under the special conditions of Min County, which is going to be wrong.

Someone else sarcastically said: "Mr. Chen Jian also hunted for naturalism and zoology, and in the future he envisioned, the republic was one man, and Min County was to be the head of the republic, and all the blood and nutrients were to be continuously transported there, and then with a ridiculous attitude he despised the development of other places." However, we all know that the head of the republic is the capital, not the Min county. In fact, according to the drawing method of going up north and down south, Minjun should be feet. A headstand republic would be terrible. We should be soberly aware that the development of Min County is not because of the system or any other reason, but simply because of the advantages of geographical location and the fact that a small group of people with ulterior motives continue to suck blood with monopoly technology. ”

"From what I have seen and heard in Minjun, the model of Minjun is dark, without traditional value, without morality, without a bottom line, and dirty. The Mexican Party and its supporters are just fireflies in the dark...... People, when will fireflies be like candlelight? Obviously, it is only possible in extremely dark places, and I can't help but feel sad for the people of Minjun. ”

"According to Mr. Chen Jian's 'scientific' theory, it is not difficult to find out what he wants to do: if there are one billion acres of land in the country, there is some kind of 'scientific' machine that can cultivate and harvest and only needs fifteen million people, and if all the country's income comes from the land. Then it can be concluded that fifteen million people and thirty million people cultivate no difference to the sum of national wealth. ”

However, he did not take into account that the remaining 15 million people needed to make ends meet. This is the most inhuman aspect of his idea, which in his view only needs to die. ”

"Isn't the hydraulic machine in Minjun doing the same thing today? Can a factory owner who owns a water-powered factory wear all the cotton yarn produced by a water-powered factory? Since he can't wear it, who is going to sell these cotton yarns to? The wages of the yarn workers are getting lower and lower, and they simply cannot afford to buy much; And those individual yarn workers who spin and squeeze across the machine cannot afford it. The production of yarn has increased, but fewer people have bought it. ”

"In fact, the traditional tenancy system is the basis for the functioning of the Republic, and it is the best foundation for the changes that have not been experienced in hundreds of years. We can see that under the tenant system, Mr. Chen Jian and his disciples have the so-called 'rent rentiers' who have spending power. ”

"Even if farming technology improves, a tenant system must exist, and even land sales should be eliminated, so that more tenants can be accommodated who are 'limited in their productive capacity' in the eyes of Mr. Chen Jian and his henchmen." Otherwise, these people will have no choice but to die. The 'rent rentiers' were able to consume enough of the product to maintain a perfect balance so that all people could exist on the land. ”

"Yet now they say that this is against the tide of history – they have always tried to explain everything in terms of 'science' and have always ridiculously defined themselves as progressive or reactionary – the question is that I must ask Mr. Chen Jian, how are you prepared to deal with the huge number of Chinese people who have lost what they have made a living on? Is it to kill them? Or leave them to fend for themselves? ”

"I visited many tenants who would rather endure higher rents than lose their tenancy themselves."

"In fact, the people who own large tracts of land are the elite and pillars of the republic, don't they know the advantages of running a business? No, I think of course they do, but they have the world in mind, and would rather choose land rent than let these poor tenants lose their last chance of survival for the sake of profit. ”

This is something that the cold-blooded Mr. Chen Jian can't think of at all, and he only has interests in his mind. Many people think that he is a good person, but they don't know that the real biting dog doesn't bark, and the landlords who really care about the world will never take the initiative to say that they let millions of tenants have the last pure land to survive. ”

"We can see that in Nangou Village, outside the capital, a landlord treats his tenants well, and is greatly supported by the tenants, and when the tenants are difficult to survive, the landlord will lend to them - the people, we all know that the tenants can't actually pay the interest at all, but the landlord can still borrow. If they were mercenary merchants, would they lend money to a tenant who could not afford to pay it back? ”

"In the case of Nangou Village, if the landlord has reclaimed all the land, run his own business, and used a new type of seed drill and horse-drawn thresher—according to Mr. Chen Jian and his henchmen, this has not reduced the wealth generated—but at the cost of only 80 of the 320 tenants, and the rest will have to flee to the city without support, what are you going to do with the 240 people, Mr. Chen Jian? Is it possible to watch them beg or starve to death and laugh and say that this is progress? ”

"Of course, of course, the Mexican Party has come up with a solution: it is to revert to public ownership 500 years ago. Chen Jian and his henchmen often reprimanded others for going against the tide of history, but in fact everyone can clearly see who is reactionary, and it will be 500 years since they retreated. In the view of Mr. Chen Jian and his henchmen, slash-and-burn farming, living in caves, dividing everything equally, and interbreeding with wives and wives are the ideal social ......"

"In fact, the Mexican Party can't solve anything. They could not solve any of the problems of the present, and they believed that progressive capitalism at this time would drag the Republic into the abyss – into the abyss of an uprising of 1.5 million to 2 million landless tenants. And what they think is progressive capitalism will perish, because they will produce in a disorderly manner, and will one day be unable to sell everything they produce, and the gap between the rich and the poor in the republic will be the highest since the founding of the country, and this will be far faster than in the last five hundred years. ”

"I weep for the traditional moral sentiments that are about to be lost, for the unity of heart and one mind in the tenant system, for the master-apprentice relationship of the guild system, and for the republic. O republic, please slow down and wait for your people! ”

This article, full of affection and humanistic care, comes at a time when the rumors of the establishment of the new company are getting bigger and bigger, and the person who wrote this article is a good person, and a person with a foresight.

While the Mexican Party organization in the capital was preparing to print a newspaper polemic and counterattack, more unfavorable news came from the south.

An uprising of craftsmen and the unemployed broke out in Mincheng, calling for a return to the guild era, the destruction of machinery, and the forced tenancy of land.

At the same time that the Mo Party organization in the capital got the news, some big people and behind-the-scenes figures in the capital also got the news, and soon the city was full of turmoil.

Because of the delay in the spread of the news, the first news received was that there had just been an uprising, that the Mexican Party had voted against the bill to ban the construction of new water workshops, that the craftsmen had asked the city to form an autonomous council to pledge allegiance to the republic, and that the reform vote would ensure the passage of the ban bill.

All the news in the early stage was extremely unfavorable to the members of the Mexican Party organization in the capital, and in their opinion, if it was not handled well, it would be taken advantage of the opportunity to destroy all kinds of new factories in Minjun, rebuild guilds, etc., and then the basis for the existence of the Mexican Party would disappear.

Chen Jian was even more worried that this was the first major event encountered by the party, and whether it could be properly handled had a direct bearing on future development, but he and a group of party members were in the capital, and they could not go back at all, so he was anxious for a while.

The ideology of the Mexican Party is destined to be impossible to gain the support of the majority at this time, and if it is not handled well, it will cause even greater confusion, and it is likely that the right of association will be banned, the party property will be confiscated, and the schools and practical technology research institutes will be smashed, and then the ideology will be completely reactionary.

Even if it is not handled well, in the future, some people will raise their arms and shout that if they want to obtain supreme rights, as long as the interests of the majority of yeoman farmers can be safeguarded, the land can be redivided, the main body of yeoman farmers can be rebuilt, and the guilds can be rebuilt, I am afraid that the first democratically elected emperor of the republic may be born.

The emperor is the most suitable arbiter at some times, and it is very likely to create such conditions when there are countless careerists and traditional values and morals are gradually collapsing and disintegrating.

The panicked Chen Jian was in the capital and had Min County in his heart, and he couldn't live in peace.

Under the deliberate tampering of some people, the demands of the Mincheng uprising became: support for the expansion of royal power and the rights of military families, support for yeoman farmers and tenant land, support for the revival of guilds, and support for re-serfdom.

And it was called: This is the will of the people of Mincheng, and the family of the republic must take their opinion into account.

Just in time for the first half of the holiday, Chen Jian was surrounded by thousands of people and forced him to make a statement in front of the square in the capital.

Chen Jian knew in his heart that because Minjun was not a place where the old aristocracy gathered, the suffering from the budding capitalism was far greater than the suffering of the power of the land, wealth and lords, so the demands of many people in Mincheng were reactionary and utopian. He didn't know what kind of decision the Mexican Party had made in Minjun, and it was even more unclear whether the situation could be controlled, and it was even more unpredictable whether it would give some careerists a chance.

Many people are waiting for Chen Jian's answer, they are sure that Chen Jian has been driven into a desperate situation - if he objects, it means that the statement of the country of the people in the Mexican party is pure nonsense, you yourself do not believe in the choice of the people, and think that you are the right, then what kind of question is there about the voting rights of the people's republic, it can be seen that you do not support the council of everyone is equal and more vote-righteous.

If he supports it, it would be even better, and it would prove wrong some of the ideas and progressive reactionary definitions of the Mexican Party. The premise of support is that the Moxican Party believes that the people of the country have created everything and have the ability to control their own destiny and make their own voice heard, and since the voice of the people is right, what is wrong must be what you think is progressive and reactionary.
