1627 Rise of the South China Sea

Chapter 147 Development Prospects of Black Earth Port
When the night fell on this day, the immigrants who were placed on the boat the night before were finally able to go ashore for the night. Although the residences were only simple bamboo and wood shacks, it was undoubtedly a blessing for those who had almost despaired of their life prospects. Very rare good place.People who escaped the shadow of the war opened up a new home in this otherworldly place. For many of them, the Haihan people who brought them out of the predicament like divine soldiers are almost the same as the savior. .The strength demonstrated by the Haihan people in the past few days also made them unable to resist the rulership of these mysterious sea visitors.

Before dark, the migrants were driven back to their huts by the militia, and everyone was restricted from going out.The purpose of this is not only for the convenience of management, but also to avoid the recurrence of criminal cases.In the entire camp, only a few tents where the passing people lived were lit, and in other places there were only a few fires lit in the specially reserved space in the middle of the huts.

The joint operation team surveying the road had just returned to the camp before it was completely dark.If Wang Tom and others hadn't repeatedly emphasized that the field is extremely unsafe after nightfall, Liu Shanxia and his engineering team members would probably have to finish the line survey overnight with flashlights.

Today's dinner is much richer than yesterday, and the fishermen who moved from the Haiphong fishing village have already started fishing in the sea.Ha Long Bay is very rich in fishery resources, and it has almost always been an uninhabited area in the long history. The fish schools are completely in a natural state, and you can catch a lot of big fish with just a single net.In addition, the men and horses that Roger took out to hunt also made small gains. In just one afternoon, they hunted three sambars, more than ten golden pheasants, and several rabbits.According to the requirements of the headquarters, the cooking team specially made a few beggar chickens for the joint action team after a hard day in the mountains and forests.Several guys each held half a chicken in their hands and gnawed happily.

Gu Kai was the first to resolve the battle, and after wiping the corners of his mouth, he cleared his throat and started today's regular meeting: "Today, everyone went to see the situation on the spot. If you have any thoughts and opinions, let's talk about it now... The engineering team will start first. Bar?"

Liu Shanxia reluctantly put down the chicken paws in his hand, wiped his mouth with a towel, and then said: "About the construction of the coal transportation track, in fact, when we were at home, our Ministry of Construction had already brought it back from the last inspection team. The construction plan has been prepared with the materials, and I went to the field today to have a look. I don’t think there is a big problem. The work of the inspection team was very meticulous last time. The plan proceeds directly to construction.”

After Liu Shanxia finished speaking, he gave Qiao Zhiya a thumbs up.After today's communication, he also knew that when the expedition team came to survey the location of this road last time, Qiao Zhiya, a former engineer, was basically the main force.Today's survey work went so smoothly, thanks to Qiao Zhiya's hard work at that time.

"Are you sure about the progress of the project?" Gu Kai still asked one more question.

"Of course there is! When I built the hydropower station, I gave a guarantee to the executive committee. Did it finish on time?" Liu Shanxia never forgot to talk about the proud work of Tianduhe Hydropower Station.

Gu Kai nodded in agreement with his answer, and started the next topic: "We have been here for two days, and the headquarters model of the colonization team should be transformed into a local management model. I suggest that according to the arrangement of the executive committee, it should be established immediately. Black Earth Port Management Committee."

The command mode is a management mode first adopted by the Executive Committee when it landed in Shengli Port. The characteristic of this mode is that the relevant departments temporarily manage the overall situation. The various departments form a temporary headquarters to coordinate the work.After landing, the role of the headquarters will become smaller and smaller, and the existence time will generally not be too long. Gu Kai's proposal is just right.

The candidates for the Black Soil Port Management Committee were basically determined before departure.The person in charge is Gu Kai, the highest official here, who will also serve as the chief logistics officer. Others include civil affairs chief Zhou Hengxing, military chief Qian Tiandun, mining chief Tian Yeyou, and port and shipping chief Xie Chun.

Originally, there was a construction officer in charge of local infrastructure projects and future mine development, but Liu Shanxia and the engineering team could only stay here for a month, and then basically had to retreat to the base camp, because there are more important ones over there. Construction projects are waiting for them.Therefore, Tian Yeyou, who is in charge of mining development, can only take up this position concurrently.Fortunately, Liu Shanxia has made his statement that the construction tasks of the three main projects of the camp, road and port wharf can be basically completed within a month. Before leaving, a small chain workshop of lime kiln and cement kiln will be built here. So that Heitu Port can produce cement, an important building material, locally, and save the trouble of transporting it across the sea from the base camp.In the follow-up, we need to build a boat-shaped house and repair the fortifications outside the camp. We don’t need to bother the engineering team anymore, as long as we travel through the crowd and command the local laborers, it can be completed.

Speaking of these departments, the military and police are the easiest.These new immigrants have become easier to manage under the double education of continuous brainwashing and strong means in the past few days. As long as the rules and regulations set by the traversing people can be carried out relatively smoothly.And the place of Black Earth Port hardly faces any external threats. It is a no-man's land for hundreds of miles. Even the pirates who robbed the South China Sea would never think that there is such a settlement in such a remote small bay. land.In this way, the pressure on the military and police has been relatively reduced a lot, and even the proposal of the last expedition team to "build coastal artillery fortifications on the mountains on both sides of the entrance and exit channels of the harbor" has been postponed indefinitely—— Of course, there are objective reasons behind this decision, such as insufficient production capacity of key materials such as artillery, gunpowder, and cement, and a fundamentally insufficient number of gunners.

But Qian Tiandun is not such an idle person.Prior to this, Qian Tiandun had been idle in Shengli Port for three months. Since the executive committee decided to use him this time, Qian Tiandun planned to make some achievements in Heitu Port.Before he set off, he had already submitted a training plan to the Military and Police Department, the content of which was to try to establish the first mountain combat force in Heitu Port.

Qian Tiandun's goal is still an attempt in the direction of military training, and the Military and Police Department is definitely happy to see it succeed.As for the size of this establishment, it is up to the higher-ups to discuss. After all, there are only a few dozen militiamen sent to Heitu Port, and even a company cannot make up all the staff. It is really hard to predict how many people will pass Qian Tiandun's training results in the end.In the end, the Military and Police Department made a final decision, and gave Qian Tiandun a "mountain company" preparation, and authorized him to freely absorb new blood in Heitu Port—of course, given that other departments are currently staring at him. For the military and police department's financial budget for the second half of the year, the expenses for this part of the new blood have to be solved by Heitugang itself for the time being. The military and police department can at most solve the equipment problem when it is convenient.

This way of letting go is both an opportunity and a challenge for Qian Tiandun.If it is done well, it may lead to a new way for the military and police department to organize troops and recruit recruits in the future. Remove from the seat.

In terms of functional settings, the executive committee never considered Heitu Port as a military port from the beginning to the end. At most, they considered the advantages of the local terrain for military defense.But after Qian Tiandun came here, he found that there is actually a world for him to flex his muscles here.

The introduction of immigrants here is much easier than that of Shengli Port, and the executive committee has not set a clear limit on the number of immigrants introduced. The committee can even reproduce the population size of the post-Campu city here.And the large population is the entry point of Qian Tiandun's military conception of Heitu Port.

If it was before the establishment of the internal currency circulation system, Qian Tiandun's plan would definitely not work, because the food here needs to be imported from outside, and everything can only be allocated by the executive committee or financial appropriation , If you want to raise an unplanned army, you simply don't have the capital to realize it.But now the crossing group has begun to establish an internal settlement system, which means that as an independent settlement unit, Heitu Port has the same income-generating ability as Zhuya Office.Of course, this part of income generation also belongs to the collective, and it is still in the stage of eating a big pot for the people who travel through. No matter how much income is generated, it can only be reflected by the dividends once a year.

However, the independent settlement unit means that Heitu Port also has the right to control part of its income, just like the Yazhou Office spent part of its income to recruit personnel on its own, or established a network of contacts through various means.As long as the executive committee thinks that the expenditure is reasonable and reasonable, it is not difficult to get approval.

However, compared with the Zhuya Office, Heitu Port has an obvious disadvantage. Everything here comes from the Crossing Group, and the coal transported back to Shengli Port does not have much profit at all. The object of income must be found from the outside. Obviously, there is no stable consumer market like Yazhou nearby - the nearest place is also hundreds of miles away.Qian Tiandun wanted to raise an experimental army by generating income, so he had to think carefully about how to generate money from this place that only produced coal.

Qian Tiandun is not very good at doing business, so he has to find someone to discuss it.And the executive committee obviously didn't consider developing this place into a commercial port, and didn't even send a person from the Ministry of Commerce.Qian Tiandun deliberated, and finally brought up this topic at the meeting - of course, he did not directly state that the purpose of generating income was to build an army, which would probably be directly denied by Gu Kai, a pacifist .
