Chapter 961: Chinese Workers

On the northwest side, when the first five-year plan is in full swing, and for this plan, an unprecedented congress was held, and representatives representing the interests of almost all provinces, regions, and even small towns will go to Baotou together to conduct a collective voting meeting, that is, when the train passes through the entire northwest, it can only do this, from Baotou to the farthest place, at most two and a half days, at least a few hours, and there will be no afterlife for several months. Even if it is a journey of more than half a year, even if these low-level officials leave, it will not change the balance of the local area.

When the northwest was exhausted for the development of 1914, and even the five years that began in 1914, on the other side of the world, millions of Chinese also worked hard for the northwest, and they paid not only hardship, but even the price of their lives.

After a group of young workers were selected in the Northwest and then three months of training and training, these young people with the Chinese Dream got on a cargo ship to another hemisphere of the earth, and went to Germany with the mission of the Northwest to serve the labor export agreement signed between the Northwest and Germany.

Even if the northwest is specially prepared, the migration of more than a few million people is not possible, from Shanghai to Basra, thousands of nautical miles, under the premise of pursuing speed, you can't think more about comfort, many people are taking a boat for the first time, almost did not vomit to prostration.

This is not the black slave ship of more than a hundred years ago, all the sick people are well cared for, but even so, there are still people who leave forever because of wind chill and illness, although the probability is above. There are only hundreds of thousands, or even one in a million, but every person is a catastrophe for a family.

This is inevitable, even the northwest thought of it, when it was time to emigrate to the South Seas. It is also a few million people, and the South Seas are much closer to China than the Middle East, and there are still some old and weak people who are sick and dead on the road.

The export of workers to Germany is a very important item in the large-scale industrial plan of the northwest, which is not only related to Germany's long-term combat capability in the future, but also related to the northwest's stealing of troops from Germany to make up for the industrial production and technical system. Where there is a difference, it must be completed with quality and quantity, and in the next 3 years, there will be at least six batches. You can't change everything, you can only do the work carefully, so that some defective, or frail, are in the initial screening. Be screened down to prevent similar things from happening. And the deaths that happened overseas. The Northwest has done a good job in the future, and the high pension has solved the worries of these families.

These migrant workers who arrived in Basra will take a simple rest in Basra, which is not a small port in Basra. Basra, an insignificant city in the Middle East, has now become a world-class port, and the important role of Basra can be seen just from the only way out of Germany. The area previously drawn in the northwest has been fully occupied, and Germany has built a large number of warehouses on the site of the original port of Basra and the current new port.

As the first overseas territory in the Northwest, this port, the Northwest has invested a lot of effort, even a lot of immigrants, plus staff, floating population and troops, Basra currently has 500,000 people, there are already signs of big cities, which is extremely rare in the Middle East.

The entire number of migrant workers to Germany was imported into the millions, but the fleet was separate and united, and the number of people who arrived at each time varied, and the migrant workers did not rest for a long time in Basra, ranging from three days to five days, and the German side also adjusted the railway capacity to the maximum, almost every day there were 70 passenger cars from Basra to Berlin, half of which were pulled by migrant workers from the northwest, and according to a column of 600 people, 42,000 people could be transported away every day.

Therefore, the maximum stay in Basra is 5 days, 200,000 people, in the north-west of the new port of Basra and the border with Germany, there is a huge warehouse that has been specially taken out, separated by different small rooms, so that the immigrants can live in it, on the one hand, to do the necessary checks and rest, on the other hand, it is also convenient for the Germans to make a register and register.

This is more than 3 million, close to 20 million in 6 years, 20 million, maybe for China, is not an unimaginably large number, but for Germany, the total population is only about 60 million, almost equivalent to one-third of the population.

After these workers arrived in Germany, Germany would make unified arrangements, and even set up a special Chinese migrant workers department for these migrant workers to manage this, and the migrant workers who arrived one after another were accepted by Germany, and after simple adaptation, they were transferred to various factories. From the beginning of 1914, throughout the lunar month, this work has not stopped, after the initial panic, has formed a complete system, the operation has been smooth, a steady stream of migrant workers.

Germany, the core of the European war, is a lively scene in the lunar month, and the Europeans are the Gregorian calendar, and there is no New Year's or the like, but one after another through the 3B railway, the huge and millions of migrant workers have been transported, which really makes Germany excited, which is no less than a shot in the arm for Germany.

The production capacity of the Chinese, in the previous production and construction corps and railway construction corps, has been fully demonstrated, these two major enterprises have taken over the large-scale construction in Germany, even the permanent defense base on the German-French border that has just passed, is also the northwest construction, high efficiency, excellent quality, so that Germany is quite satisfied with the productivity of the northwest, and then for the migrant workers are very expected.

The reminder of the northwest made Germany find a problem, under the premise that the possibility of a quick victory in the European war no longer exists, continuous combat capability has become the mainstream, at this time, even the production of a rifle is particularly important, which represents a reduction in the cost of national strength, but European countries, except for Russia, there is a problem, the problem of manpower application, especially Germany, Germany is cut off from transportation, and there are not many colonies, it is impossible to obtain blood transfusions from the periphery, on top of the choice of manpower, Military, industrial and agricultural must be taken into account.

At this time, the plan put forward by the Northwest took the opportunity was almost in the middle of the coffin, the bait was too big, even if he was really poisonous, the Germans would eat it first, not to mention that it was very reasonable, the German side could be responsible for the wages of the migrant workers in the Northwest according to the standards of the German side, and solve the problem of food and accommodation, which can be converted into expenses. Then Germany would be able to free up at least half of its manpower, which, in whatever way, would raise Germany's war potential by a notch.

In order to entertain these migrant workers, especially after meeting the first batch of 300,000 migrant workers, I briefly tested them, the technical level is relatively unified, not very high, but it is not nothing, and it can replace some positions with not so high technology and relatively large physical requirements, which is equivalent to saying that Germany will mobilize at least 1.5 million to 2 million troops without affecting its production capacity.

As far as Germany's production capacity is concerned, coupled with the support of the northwest, what is lacking is not the ability to produce weapons, but the lack of personnel, which has already manifested itself in the early stage, and is not the reminder and help of the northwest, at most one year, Germany's own industrial production capacity will be reduced by 30-40%, and agricultural production capacity will be reduced by 4 percent.

In this case, with this great uncertainty, once the food production is affected, and the country cannot obtain a large amount of food, I am afraid that the army will also be affected, at any time, food is always the maximum, any army, even if it is an invincible iron army, after the food is broken, at most 3 days, it will be chaotic, and 7 days I am afraid that it will be wiped out without fighting.

Food is a big problem, must be solved, unlike the Entente, Germany did not defeat the British Navy under the premise of the outside world, the outside transportation, can only rely on the 3B railway and the port of Basra, the capacity of this port is not small, but the capacity of the 3B railway is limited, in the construction of the double line, and even the construction of the third line, the railway in the Middle East is already the third line, but the railway from Turkey to Germany, it is not easy, just the work of the project, it takes a lot of time, land acquisition and demolition, etc., it is also more troublesome, Even if it was, it was a year later, and now it was some necessary raw materials and war materials that had been brought in.

The 3 million workers supported by the Northwest can replace the original workers in many fields, so that Germany's original use of 9 caps and 10 bottles will become 10 caps and 10 caps, and even some will be rich, and the German government attaches great importance to this group of workers.

The first batch, which has been distributed, has been waiting for a more anxious factory, immediately accepted this group of workers, in actual use, although the language is not understood, but the communication of the workers, always machines and data, not to mention, the workers in the northwest, and for the purpose of learning some simple German, which is quite good, can be used as qualified workers.

The first response was good, and the German government has also put more and more factories and enterprises into the needs of workers, and it can be said unceremoniously that more than 3 million workers, after coming to Germany, their positions have been determined.

The main purpose of the newly established department is to coordinate the relationship between the two sides, arrange accommodation, factories, and some accommodation for the new arrivals, so that Chinese workers can integrate into the German industrial field as quickly as possible and play their role to the greatest extent possible.
