Chapter 774 Kyushu Special Zone (fourth update, please subscribe)
People are like dandelions, they will float in the wind, and of course they will take root on the ground.
Although it is difficult to leave their homeland, when people from the Tang Dynasty came to a place, they would take root here and integrate into the land.
This is true in Nanyang, and it is also true in Kyushu.
The bells of automatic cars, the shouts of pedestrians...
When the noisy noises came from outside the car window, Zheng Hanjie had already developed the ability to turn a deaf ear, isolating himself from the Japanese-flavored Chinese language outside.
At the same time, Zheng Hanjie's eyes did not shift from the newspaper in his hand at all. The headline on the front page was written in an eye-catching headline.
"The delegations of both sides of the peninsula armistice negotiations held a meeting... Major General Harrison, the chief representative of the "United Nations Army" delegation, expressed his willingness to sincerely seek an armistice to end the bloodshed in North Korea..."
" Hey! "
He sighed so quietly that even Zheng Hanjie couldn't hear it. Then he put the newspaper away and looked out the window calmly, with no strong accent in his ears. Chinese shouting.
The bus is now driving on the streets of Fukuoka.
It is June 1952. Compared to the time just after the war, the biggest difference in Fukuoka is not the extra modern masonry and concrete buildings on both sides of the street, but the signboards on both sides of the street—— Full of Chinese characters.
This is the biggest difference between Fukuoka Special Administrative Region and Japan.
In the past days, whether it was based on physical needs or life needs, it was almost universal for occupation soldiers to establish intimate relationships with Japanese women. So the great transnational love that breaks through the world is constantly being staged here, and what is the result?
To a certain extent, it will solve the problem of serious imbalance in the ratio of men to women in Kyushu. In the eyes of many people, this is not a wrong thing. We can't let those Japanese women die alone. And to a certain extent, this kind of marriage also breaks mutual hostility and prejudice, helping East Asia move toward reconciliation.
"Kyushu, Kyushu, this has really become Kyushu now..."
Zheng Hanjie, who just came to Kyushu via Hong Kong Island last year, looked at the city outside the car window, and this thought came to his mind again. idea.
When the bus stopped, the Chinese that came to my ears, the Chinese spoken by those women and children, although it had some oriental flavor and was a bit harsh, this land has indeed been changed. a lot of.
There is nothing special about this. After all, most of those women are the wives of occupying officers and soldiers. As for the children, they are almost all children born to them. Speaking Chinese is a normal thing.
Ten minutes later, Zheng Hanjie got off the bus and walked for a while before arriving at the factory. As soon as he entered the factory, he saw the female workers working hard.
This is a garment factory. Ever since the United Nations troops entered the peninsula, Kyushu has suddenly become lively. With the influx of American orders, those factories that were originally half-dead began to flourish immediately. It was at that time that Zheng Hanjie entered the factory.
“Hanjie,”
Factory owner Sun Dehui said as soon as he saw Zheng Hanjie.
"How are you, how are you getting in touch with the factories in Nanyang? When will their machines be sent over? If that doesn't work, Hanjie, go to Nanyang yourself."
Sun Dehui complained while talking.
"Damn it, those factories that produced machines were all moved away by Nanyang. If I had known that one day, it would be better for us to leave a factory than to make clothes!"
Although the boss is wearing a suit, But the manner in which he talks and walks is that of a soldier. This is normal in Kyushu. After the occupying army occupied Kyushu, through a series of operations, many enemy products became the property of the officers, and Sun Dehui was one of them. However, Because of the low level, we only got one garment factory, which was more like a workshop than a factory, with only dozens of sewing machines and other equipment.
However, even so, after several years of development, it has now developed into a factory with thousands of people. Especially after the outbreak of the Peninsula War, relying on the long-term cooperation between the occupying military authorities and the US military , the two sides have a deep relationship, so as long as Kyushu can produce it, the US military will designate it to be supplied here.
Similar to history, although the special needs economy has driven Japan's economy to a certain extent, what is different from history is that because a large number of factories were demolished, Japan was unable to accept orders at all. While exporting to other regions including Nanyang, compared with Honshu and other places, Kyushu, whose factories are basically intact, has taken on a large number of special orders. In May 1st alone, Kyushu's factories took over 30 billion in circulation coupons. Order.
Circulation coupons are currencies issued by the Kyushu occupation military authorities. They are only circulated in the Kyushu Special Zone. Every 50 yuan of circulation coupons can be exchanged for one U.S. dollar. Relying on the stimulus of the special needs economy, the current Kyushu Special Zone economy is not only increasingly prosperous, but has even become the fastest growing region in Japan. Of course, they have accumulated a large amount of US dollar spot exchange.
“Going to Nanyang?”
Zheng Hanjie still asked in disbelief.
“Should I go?”
“Of course you have to go. I am an active soldier and cannot go abroad. Lao Hu and the others are also like this. His grandma’s, and this headquarters also Really, if you don’t get fucking military pay anymore, why are you talking about active duty? Active duty is useless..."
When it comes to "active duty" Sun Dehui, he is full of complaints. Although three years ago, in order to stabilize the morale of the military, the occupying authorities allowed one-third of the officers and soldiers to leave the military camp and return to civilian life as reserve forces. However, they are prohibited from going abroad, and every year All require training. Even every two years, they have to serve in the army for half a year. In short, everyone takes turns serving in the army.
While complaining, Sun Dehui said.
"Well, Hanjie, you clean up, fly there tomorrow, and take down the machine as soon as possible. The Americans are negotiating. If there is an armistice, our business will be difficult. We have to take advantage of the opportunity. Before signing the armistice agreement, make some money first."
When mentioning the Americans, Sun Dehui said again.
"Damn it, the Yankees are really not up to par. They gave up after only two years of fighting. Even if the old man is timid, he has been fighting for three or four years! How can the Yankees give up so quickly?"
When talking about the Americans' failure to live up to expectations, Sun Dehui's tone was similar to the way the brothers used to talk about the old man when they gathered together in the past.
In fact, to a certain extent, it is more of a relief - the old man lost the battle and finally moved to the island, and their faces were not bright. After all, they are also Tangshan soldiers.
However, after the Yankees were frustrated on the peninsula, they had only been fighting for two years, and they were wagging their tails and wanted to make peace. Naturally, their psychological internal friction was relieved.
After all, even Americans are no match for others, let alone them!
However, what Sun Dehui cares about is not whether the Yankees are cowardly or not. What he cares about is business. For him who is in the military uniform business, of course he hopes that the war will last as long as possible. Not to mention the US military, there are millions of uniforms for the army, which is also a big business!
Not only that, even tens of millions of Goryeo sticks need to wear clothes! There are no textile factories in South Korea. What is sold in the market are Nanyang and Kyushu products. Only recently have some Japanese products been introduced.
"Boss, if the ceasefire is really coming soon, my suggestion is that we should also consider the future and blindly expand the factory. What will we do if there are no special orders from the US military in the future?"
Although the university Shi did not study business, but Zheng Hanjie had his own views on business.
Looking at Zheng Hanjie, Sun Dehui said:
“What, do you have any other ideas?”
In fact, Sun Dehui has also considered this issue, but not deeply. After all, the Yankees' orders cannot be completed even if the workers in the factory work continuously for fifteen or six hours.
“Boss, I heard that factories in Nanyang sell their goods to the United States through trading companies. If we can connect with this line, even if the special needs economy fails in the future, we can still What do you think about having a place to go?”
Listen to Zheng Hanjie’s reminder. Sun Dehui was completely lost in thought. After a long time, he spoke.
"Hanjie, you are right, people who have no long-term worries must have immediate worries. I knew I had chosen the right person when I selected you to join our factory. Hmm."
Strength The nodded. When looking at Zheng Hanjie, Sun Dehui's face was filled with relief, as if she was pleased with the provocative gaze on her.
After all, he chose Zheng Hanjie among several people who came to apply for the job. And he did not let himself down.
"Let's get ready. We'll go there tomorrow and finalize the machine thing first. Then, we'll have a good contact with you and get the line you mentioned."
