The First Warlord of the Republic of China

.

spn On September 9, the East China Coastal Defense Fleet was officially established. This is the predecessor of the future Chinese Navy. Although this fleet was only a local navy at the beginning of its establishment, the military expenditure in the first year reached 3 million silver dollars, and it was established At the beginning, the naval soldiers were trained with extremely strict standards, and a group of naval instructors were also invited from Germany.

At the beginning of its establishment, the East China Coastal Defense Fleet did not have any advanced battleships, and only bought three outdated ironclad ships from Germany for training.

However, the equipment of the East China Coastal Defense Fleet focuses on the establishment of submarine forces. As the East China Coastal Defense Fleet already has mature submarine technology, this kind of cheap naval equipment is obviously more suitable.

At the same time, the East China Coastal Defense Fleet also focused on coastal defense in the early stage. Its main task was to cooperate with coastal defense artillery and air force to protect important ports from Japanese navy attacks.

After the establishment of Hangzhou Naval University, the first class recruited 1914 students, and in [-], many students were sent to the German Navy for internships, and after the outbreak of World War I, they participated in the famous Jutland naval battle. [

Then Jiang Yu returned to Huai'an from Hangzhou and continued to be his technical house.

The technology to be tackled this time is the production line of civilian cars of Huadong Automobile Factory. Not long ago, Huadong Automobile Factory officially released a civilian car with a price of 1600 silver dollars (800 US dollars). The brand name is "BMW Car". was named 'BMW x1'.

The price of the BMW x1 is the same as that of the Ford T-type sedan in the same period, but it is more advanced than the T-type sedan in terms of technology. The tricycle looks very frustrated again.

In contrast, the design of the BMW X1 is more advanced. Jiang Yu adopted the car design of the 30s, and is superior to the T-type car in terms of driving and comfort.

The manufacturing cost of BMW x1 is only 600 silver dollars, and the profit of a car reaches 1000 yuan. Of course, the transportation, sales, advertising and other aspects after the car is manufactured also need some costs. After deducting these costs, the profit is still 900 yuan.

BMW x1 is extremely easy to export, because the price of civilian cars these days is generally more than two thousand dollars, or even as high as four or five thousand dollars.Only Fords and BMWs are down to $800.

And once the assembly line of the BMW x1 car is manufactured, the production cost will continue to decline, just like the Ford Model T car. Historically, the price of the Ford Model T car has been reduced to $300 after using the assembly line production model.

It can be said that the use of assembly lines to manufacture civilian cars has huge profits these days. Although China's civilian car market is not that big, BMW x1 can definitely take the export route.

Ford Motor Company has also begun to study the assembly line production model at this time. Historically, they only released it in 13, but at this time, the East China Automobile Factory took the lead in launching the assembly line production model at the end of 12, which made the production cost of BMW x1 start to rise. decline.

At the same time, Jiangyu expanded the assembly line production model to the production of auto parts, which reduced the production cost from the parts, and the cost of car assembly, and finally reduced the production cost of the BMW x1 to US$150 a few years later.

When Jiang Yu was a technical geek, the people below were in charge of the election and marching to the Northwest, so he basically didn't need to intervene.

The election went very smoothly, and the candidates supported by the East China Chamber of Commerce sang all the way.

In contrast, the election of the Kuomintang was very unsatisfactory. In terms of the election of members of the House of Representatives, the Kuomintang was similar to other parties, and was squeezed out by the East China Chamber of Commerce so that it could barely get any votes.

The Kuomintang found out sadly that in East China, the Huaihe River Administration is already under the control of the General Administration. Coupled with the operation of the East China Chamber of Commerce, the election of members of the House of Representatives suffered a disastrous defeat in East China.

The leader of the Democratic Party, Tang Hualong, wisely chose to join the East China Chamber of Commerce, and then the East China Chamber of Commerce presented Tang Hualong with a BMW car.

Among these parties, the Kuomintang was squeezed out and suffered a disastrous defeat, and the Republican Party seemed to have achieved some success in Hubei, but it was divided internally by the East China Chamber of Commerce.The Democratic Party took refuge in the East China Chamber of Commerce, and the United Party joined forces with the East China Chamber of Commerce early on.

Soon, the election of members of the House of Representatives in East China entered the stage of re-election, mainly because there were Lianghuai Administrations in East China to maintain order.

In East China, the Lianghuai Administration has established a complete household registration system, and controlled the township administration, so it has a strong ability to control the local area.

The primary elections in other provinces have not been able to enter the secondary elections because of various violent actions. [

The re-election in the East China provinces is in suspense, because the primary elections are all taken over by the East China Chamber of Commerce, let alone the re-election, it is the same for anyone.Only a small number of Kuomintang members passed the primary election, and became the key targets of suppression in the secondary election.The re-election ballots in East China are more expensive, with the price reaching 320 silver dollars each.

Under the full control of the East China Chamber of Commerce, the party representatives and party representatives supported by the East China Chamber of Commerce won a comprehensive victory, while the KMT only elected 23 members of Congress in the provinces controlled by the Lianghuai Administration.

The East China Chamber of Commerce elected 430 eight members of the House of Representatives in these provinces. The total number of representatives in these provinces alone exceeds 50% of the number of members of Congress. In addition to other provinces, the representatives controlled by the East China Chamber of Commerce At least it can exceed 75% of the members of the House of Representatives. Control of the House of Representatives is in suspense.

In contrast, the Kuomintang achieved relatively good results in the Senate election, but was also strongly blocked by the East China Chamber of Commerce.

The East China Chamber of Commerce retains 70 senators, but the election progress is very slow.Because the disadvantaged Kuomintang provincial senator refused to attend, it has been procrastinating.

Refusal to attend is a common tactic when a party is at a disadvantage, allowing electoral law to unfold and giving them time to divide their enemies.

However, the Kuomintang obviously could not divide the senators supported by the East China Chamber of Commerce. Instead, it divided some senators of the Kuomintang when the Kuomintang was delaying time.

However, the power of the East China Chamber of Commerce in the Senate of each province is indeed not as strong as that of the Kuomintang, and it only has an advantage in East China. Therefore, although the Kuomintang was blocked by the East China Chamber of Commerce in East China, it has the upper hand in other provinces, even absolutely. upper hand.

At the same time as the election was going on, autumn harvests were successively ushered in all parts of the country.

This year's autumn harvest, in the Golden Triangle area where Shandong, northern Jiangsu, and Henan meet, cotton production has doubled. First, the cotton planting area has increased, and at the same time, the yield per mu has also increased due to the use of chemical fertilizers.

At the same time, during the cotton picking process this year, the Nongken Company of the East China Group took the lead in using the "cotton picker" manufactured by the agricultural machinery factory, enabling one person to complete the cotton picking workload of hundreds of people, greatly reducing the cost of cotton production.

In addition, the Land Reclamation Company of the East China Group has joined in the monopoly "Syndicate" model formed by the owner farmers, and has gradually controlled the largest cotton production area in China. After controlling this cotton production area, the textile industry that has not been merged by the "Jiangnan Textile Company" Enterprises can't directly buy cheap cotton, and the price of imported cotton is higher. If the factory is not opened in an area close to the port, it will be unbearable.

Even if the factory is opened in the port area, with the production technology of those textile enterprises, it can maintain it.

After one year, the trust-based 'Jiangnan Textile Company' controlled by Huadong Group defeated all domestic textile enterprises, and also defeated all foreign-funded textile enterprises in China.

The Huadong Group and Northwest Group entered the Northwest region and started to open up new large-scale cotton production areas in Xinjiang and Gansu, which further consolidated the dominance of Jiangnan Textile Company in the textile industry in China.
