Chapter 136: He is not good at anything, but he is the best at colluding with foreigners (3rd update, please subscribe)
strength!
Between countries, strength has always been the key.
What era is it now?
It's the 19th century!
This is an era of the survival of the fittest and social Darwinism.
In this era, weak countries are food in the mouths of strong countries and meat on the table.
In this era, a poor white person can bully a rich yellow person at will.
In this era, black people can be torched at will.
What are the rules of the game in this era?
Either you transform into a wolf and eat meat, or you become meat on the board and be eaten by others!
These are the rules of the game in this era.
Do you think money is everything?
Do you think that you can hire white people with money and make them work for you willingly, protect you and respect you?
Is it possible?
Although the simulator's light screen was flashing, Zhu Xianhai's heart was heavy. He didn't even care about what he would gain from this simulation.
What did you gain?
What kind of harvest can compare with this?
He even understood why his white bodyguards were defeated and fled in the simulation in Buenos Aires. It was not just because pistols and rifles were no match for cannons, and not just because bodyguards were no match for the army.
But it’s because white people will never die for the yellow people!
Yes, they may earn a commission of more than ten pesos a month, and for the sake of the commission, they will not look down at you when communicating, and their "may i help you sir" and authentic British London accent are definitely not out of respect, but for the sake of money.
When faced with danger, the first thing they do is to save their lives and run away, because white people will never die for yellow people!
Nanhua may have given those European immigrants jobs and salaries, but how did they give back?
It's a backstab!
Just like American immigrants backstabbed Mexico in Texas.
What kind of gain can compare to gaining such a clear understanding of the world?
Zhu Xianhai looked at the screen solemnly.
[The simulation is over. In this simulation, you have fully demonstrated the willpower that a leader should have. A strong willpower is the first prerequisite for winning a war. I hope you will seriously learn from this simulation experience. You will gain 5,000 experience points in this simulation, and you can get one of the following rewards.]
[1. The planned route map of the Nanhua railway and highway in 1875.]
【2. Long-term experience in administration and diplomacy. 】
【3. Knowledge of Intermediate Mechanical Engineers. 】
He directly chose the first option.
Neither administrative experience nor diplomacy is as good as a railway and highway map. In this long-term simulation, Zhu Xianhai clearly saw how long it took the engineers to measure the routes. Not to mention, it took ten years just to build the highway in the Araucanía region. If it had not been for the war, thanks to the construction of these railways, Nanhua would have built a large number of factories and mines around the railways.
In fact, in the simulator, because of the war, Nanhua did build a large number of factories along the railway line to support the long-term war of resistance.
"These maps will save at least ten years of time!"
Development is the bottom line!
Transportation is the basic prerequisite for development. Moreover, those railways are built next to mines, and their value is absolutely incomparable to any experience.
Of course, the more important point is that judging from the simulation in the simulator, his administration is still desirable. The only problem is the insufficient population!
What determined the outcome of that long war?
It's strength.
It's the population!
“The core issue is still population!”
Zhu Xianhai said to himself.
"There are still capable people in Argentina. They even know how to collude with the Qing Dynasty. The Qing Dynasty is really incompetent. They collude with foreigners first and even forbid Nanhua to recruit immigrants there!"
The most fatal blow to South China was never from Argentina or Chile, but from the Qing Dynasty thousands of miles away.
"If Nan Hua had millions of Chinese in 1875, what would it matter if there were hundreds of thousands, or even millions of European immigrants? They couldn't make any waves! In the final analysis, it was the lack of manpower that gave them the opportunity to take advantage of it!"
Whether it is Texas or Hawaii, the reason why American immigrants have taken over their places is, to put it bluntly, because of certain human resources advantages and the backing of the country.
"At all costs, we must increase Chinese immigration as much as possible."
Zhu Xianhai said to himself.
"Those who are not of my race must have different hearts."
One thing that is certain is that the strongest fortress was conquered from the inside, although Zhu Xianhai anticipated conflicts with Argentina and Chile - this was inevitable. After all, both countries began their expansion to the south in the late 1860s and 1870s, mainly because the once fierce Mapuche cavalry was simply vulnerable to the breech-loading rifle.
But there is no doubt that what is Nanhua’s biggest problem?
There are too few Chinese immigrants.
This is the so-called core of the problem!
If this problem is not solved, even if Nanhua wants to develop, it will be empty talk.
Looking at the South American continent on the map, Zhu Xianhai muttered to himself.
"The key is to increase immigration!"
He walked to the large world map, first looking at the South American continent, and then he turned his gaze to China, tens of thousands of miles away, which was under the rule of the Qing Dynasty.
"The core issue is still here. As long as we can continuously transport Chinese workers from here, the population of Nanhua will not be a problem..."
But what are the two key factors that restrict the number of immigrants from South China?
One is ships. There is a shortage of ships, especially next year. According to the information obtained in the simulator, because the American ambassador to China opposed the use of American ships to transport Chinese "coolies", in 1862, US President Lincoln signed a bill prohibiting American citizens from using their own ships to engage in the "coolie trade". The shortage of ocean-going ships limited the number of immigrants.
The second is war!
The end of the war allowed the Qing Dynasty to resume its "internal affairs".
"The key is still the Taiping Rebellion!"
Zhu Xianhai pursed his lips.
"As long as the Taiping Rebellion continues, the Qing Dynasty will not be able to stop immigration even if it wants to..."
Summarizing the experience of this simulation life, Zhu Xianhai felt that it was because there were too many enemies and the existence of Nanhua touched the interests of too many countries, which led to such an end.
The existence of Nanhua touched the interests of South American countries and white people in Europe and America. In addition, there was the Qing Dynasty. The reason why the Qing authorities strictly prohibited immigration to Nanhua was ultimately fear. They were afraid of the Han regime. Even if that regime was tens of thousands of miles away, they were still "heartaches" in their eyes, so they would readily prohibit immigration.
"You won't die if you don't commit suicide, Taqing, you are trapped by me..."
With a cold smile, Zhu Xianhai's eyes narrowed into slits.
"It seems that we still need to demonstrate the spirit of internationalism..."
