At this stage, Li Mu's immigration from the Qing Empire has also begun to be restricted, and it is no longer like at the beginning, as long as someone is willing to emigrate.
The traditional thinking of the Chinese is that people leave their hometowns and are cheap, so unless they really can't get along, they will not choose the road of no return to immigration, Li Mu also made a bloody investment in immigration, and there are more than a dozen immigration companies established by Cole in the Qing Dynasty, and these companies have only one mission, to lure Chinese to the United States at all costs, even if they cooperate with human traffickers and buy people from human traffickers.
That's how so many women and children in Springfield came about.
The continuous immigration of the Junma Group has been carried out for nearly two years, and the effect is still very good, at least to a large extent, alleviating the problem of too few women among the Chinese Americans, and there are currently nearly 10,000 Chinese families in the United States, although it is still not enough for the total number of Chinese, but at least those Chinese in the United States see the hope of starting a family.
Where there is hope, there is motivation.
In addition to women and children, only young adults or craftsmen are eligible to join the immigration team of the Junma Group, now the immigrants in the Qing State has formed an industrial chain, the Junma Group has set up an immigration camp in Guangdong, all the Chinese who want to immigrate, must now live in the immigration camp for three months, receive basic language training, in order to facilitate their life in the United States, and by the way, to supplement their nutrition.
Nutrition is very important, almost all the Chinese who have just arrived in the immigration camp are yellow and thin, and they are severely malnourished, and if they are not given nutrition, they may not be able to survive the days at sea to reach the United States.
Now it is much better than before, when Li Mu went to the United States, the steamer sailed at sea for nearly four weeks, and now the steamship is more technologically advanced, and it only takes about 20 days to cross the Pacific Ocean.
Many of the immigrants recruited by Li Mu were gardening craftsmen, and these craftsmen were currently on Governor's Island, and Li Mu's home was their first job.
Situ Lei did not understand what Li Mu meant, Li Mu's requirements were different from Swan Castle, the requirements for building materials were not so harsh, and the place where reinforced concrete could be used resolutely did not use marble, which greatly saved time, after Li Mu explained in detail, Situ Lei gave a three-year period.
Three years is still too long, how long did it take for Junma Construction Company to build the "Four Brothers of Fort", it was only less than a year, and the four buildings rose from the ground, and the castle requested by Li Mu was far inferior to the "Four Brothers of Fort" in terms of engineering quantity, so I don't think it would take three years to complete.
"Three years is the shortest, when the Junma Construction Company built the fort four brothers, the workers were sufficient, so they could work overtime day and night, but now, not now, the Junma Construction Company wants to build the Junma Building in Central Park, and also build the main exhibition hall of the Independent Centennial Exhibition, plus the factory that started some time ago, even if the workers of the Kuobin Reservoir are transferred, it is still understaffed."
Situ Lei reasoned with the facts and did not give Li Mu a ticket.
The Broadside Reservoir was finally completed and successfully passed the joint acceptance of Springfield and Massachusetts, and the land around the reservoir was owned by Li Mu, so now only some people remain to continue to develop the land around the Broadside Reservoir, and most of them will be diverted to New York, Indiana, and Illinois.
The development of land in Indiana and Illinois is also on the agenda, and the Chinese who have already married will have priority to buy land from Li Mu at a price below the market price and become a new generation of American farmers.
Farming in the United States is not the same as farming in the Qing Dynasty, where intensive farming is a common way, and a farmer's family raising a cow is like a baby, and the life of a cow is more valuable than a person's life.
When a person cultivates an acre of land, he can naturally cultivate intensively, but if he is allowed to cultivate a hundred acres of land, he will be asked to work hard, not to mention that the Chinese who go to Indiana and Illinois can get an average of 50 acres of land per person, which is equivalent to about 300 acres.
In order to make it easier for the farmers, Li Mu instructed the Junma Research Institute to conduct research on agricultural machinery, no research, Li Mu now has 15 million acres of land in his hands, which is about the same as the land area in the hands of the North Pacific Railroad Company.
"Don't tell me that there is a shortage of manpower, no matter how short there is, there is no shortage of such a point, how many workers are needed to build a castle, 200 is enough, and any company can squeeze it out."
Li Mu does not think that manpower has been stretched to this extent, and in about half a month, the Cuban workers will be in place, and the Junma Construction Company will further expand at that time.
After more than two years of development, the company is now composed of four branches, the first construction company is referred to as "one construction", which is responsible for high-rise buildings; The second construction was taken over from the New York City government and was mainly responsible for the construction of urban infrastructure; Sanjian is a branch specially established to cooperate with Junma Electric Company, and they are good at digging pipes and burying power poles to pull telephone lines; The last four constructions are for the public, which is a new company established by Situ Lei and them after they came to New York, which is strictly the property of Hongmen, but it is affiliated with the Junma Construction Company.
Li Mu said this, and Situ Lei could only raise his hand to surrender.
If you want to demolish the house, you must first get the contents of the house out, there used to be a lot of good things in the basement of William Castle, but now the most valuable ones have been transferred to the vault under the headquarters of Clinton Castle and the Bank of America, and what is left in the basement of William Castle is all kinds of fine wine.
Li Mu himself is not a drinker, but there are guys around him who like to drink two glasses when they have nothing to do, so there are more and more drinks in the basement of William Castle.
Rum from Cuba, champagne and brandy from France are common, and the rare ones are the large jars that were obtained from the Qing Empire.
Cole has a task in the Qing Kingdom is to collect all kinds of famous wine for Li Mu, as long as Li Mu can remember the name, one is counted as one, and no one is missing.
Cole had been working in the Qing Kingdom for nearly three years, so the basement of William's Castle was full of jars and jars.
Li Mucun wine likes the original taste, rum and champagne or something like to use the kind of oak barrel that can hold 250 catties, the wine from the Qing Kingdom naturally uses the traditional large wine tank, the largest wine tank can hold 500 catties, so that the wine can not only maintain the quality but also prevent theft, and the landlord Lao Cai's family "helpless", even if it is stolen by the thief, the thief can not get away.
The hundred and ten large wine vats put together were magnificent, and they were all placed in the basement and did not feel much, and only halfway through the move, the small square in front of Wilhelm Castle was already full.
"Leo, get a ship and get these wines back to Springfield, where I'm going to build a winery."
Li Mu Wang is full of anger, and he must maintain restraint in other matters, and he does not need to report to anyone about storing alcohol, and in two years, the United States will promulgate a ban on alcohol, and then Li Mu's winery will become a paradise in the hearts of alcoholics.
Yan Shun recently looked for loopholes in the relevant regulations of the Junma Group with Situ Lei, and the eyes of people were all unpredictable, for Li Mu's order, Yan Shun did not have any sense of resistance, let him do whatever he wanted, isn't it just to find a ship, it is very simple, New York Harbor is the largest port in the United States, and there are many ships here if there is nothing.
After three days of busy work, all the wine tanks were loaded and sent away, Li Mu did not follow the ship back to Springfield, Lao Yan and Yan's mother stayed in Springfield and had nothing to do, just let them take care of the winery, so as not to have problems idle.
Li Mu felt guilty about Lao Yan and Yan's mother, and the three Chuxue brothers and sisters all followed Li Mu to run around, although they can all be regarded as successful in their careers now, but after all, they can't be filial piety by Lao Yan and Yan's mother, and they are really not worthy of a son.
What Li Mu can do now is to ensure the future of Yan Hu and Yan Shun, help them marry a good wife, and let them live a happy life.
As for the first snow, Li Mu didn't plan to give the first snow to anyone, if anyone dared to worry about the first snow, even if it was Adrian's kind of concern for Gloria, Li Mu would kill someone.
Adrian has died to Gloria, it is said that before leaving New York, Adrian had a hot fight with a singer in a restaurant, and now Adrian has started a national tour according to the requirements of the War Department, regardless of whether Adrian is really dead to Gloria, if Adrian dares to entangle again, Li Mu will really make Adrian ruined.
This is not difficult for Li Mu.
Look at the current Edison, when the New York District Court heard the case of Junma Group's infringement of Edison's laboratory patents, Li Mu did not even appear in court.
The lawsuit has not yet been heard, the result is already doomed, the result of the judge's verdict says everything, the horse group did not infringe on the patent rights of Edison laboratories at all, but the Edison laboratory used the reputation of the horse group to hype, hurt the reputation of the horse group, the court finally ruled that Edison saw an apology statement in the largest newspaper in New York for a month, which does not bother Edison, the largest newspaper in New York is Time magazine, even if Edison does not apologize, Time magazine will not let Edison go.
In the report of Time magazine, Edison became a shameless villain, the scum of the technology world, an unscrupulous capitalist, and Edison had no chance to refute it, so Edison went to England.
Heck, isn't it a bit inhumane to force America's greatest inventor of the twentieth century to flee the United States?
Anyway, Li Mu didn't have this awareness
