Chapter 204 "Exile"? "Run"!
After talking to Ernst, Prince Constantine probably knew his son’s path. The East African colony should not be called Hechingen or East Africa now. The main body has come over, so I can’t Colonize myself!
As for the millions of slaves in East Africa, they are all international "laborers" supporting the construction of East Africa. The owner of this land is already the Hechingen royal family.
The original Hechingen territory completely became Prussian territory, but the claims and many industries were still in the hands of the Hechingen royal family.
In the future, the name of the Princely Kingdom of Hechingen can be returned to the Kingdom of Prussia. After all, East Africa is not a vassal state of Prussia, but the mainland of Hechingen is. It is necessary to distinguish Hechingen from East Africa.
...
"Your Highness, this is the information about the railway industry that Prince Carl sent over!"
"Well, put it on the table!"
Well Ste has returned from Trieste. The construction of the new food factory is going smoothly, but the location is not very good.
The coastline of the Austro-Hungarian Empire is too narrow, and the only port that can serve as a major port is Trieste, so the industry is too rich. In other words, the land is too expensive, and most of the good locations are Lord's.
Of course, this does not mean that there are no owners in bad areas. Don’t take the landowners in the countryside seriously, they are all serious Austrian nobles, so the Hechingen Food Factory was built on the outskirts of Trieste.
Ernst looked through the data and quickly saw Prince Carl’s mark: The Roynes Railway Company can focus on it and meet your requirements.
"Rones Railway Company, the company is located in the Grand Duchy of Baden, with complete equipment and complete personnel. However, after the death of senior Rones a few years ago, the successor became his son Junior Rohns. Junior Rohns Si is a playboy who knows nothing about business, so he failed to secure several orders. Now the company is in a precarious state.
Originally, the Rons Railway Company was considered a dominant enterprise in the Grand Duchy of Baden, relying on Lao Luo. Enns's business has even reached France, which is of course outsourced.
Otherwise, it would appear that the French railway company is very weak. France's economic level is quite good under the rule of France. Said to be one of the best periods in French history, French railways also developed rapidly
After young Rons took control of the company, he spent all day drinking and wanting to have in-depth exchanges with the women of the Grand Duchy of Baden.
The Rons Railway Company is neither a large enterprise nor has its own economic territory. The Grand Duchy of Baden is weak in national power and is moving closer to Prussia due to geopolitical reasons.
The result is that the young Royce did not take the initiative to open up the market in France, and his backyard was stolen by Prussian companies. Now the Roynes Railway Company is on the verge of bankruptcy. "Ernst analyzed the data and said.
"This company is good. Before old Rons died, he was worried about his son's ability and specially improved the company's facilities. The equipment is all the latest. But it’s really a pity! "
"Is His Highness not satisfied with this company? ”
"That's not true. I just think that even if Royce doesn't act recklessly, the company's future situation will not be very good.
Now the railway industry is too complicated, especially in Germany, and the railway industry is far away from The cold winter is only a few years away, and it’s hard to say whether Little Rons will be able to survive it by then.”
“Your Highness, how do you know that the railway will develop into a cold winter in the future? Every country is getting more and more attention, and the potential should be very good." Tom asked curiously.
“The railway itself has great potential. I think it will be the same even in another hundred years. But can everyone really settle down and engage in industry? For the sake of money, the financial industry is hyping up railways and repairing them everywhere. The railway even exceeds the demand in some areas, and there is not enough people and logistics in these areas. In the end, what can we get back? In the end, those self-righteous and unlucky people will take over." Ernst said so because of his history.
“Then Your Highness, why do we still want to enter the railway industry?”
"The German region, no, the whole of Europe is very busy. I have not thought about expanding railway investment in a short time. Now let's solve the problem of availability.
East Africa will need railways in the future, and there will be a lot of them. I am Prepare for a rainy day," Ernst said to his butler.
"Okay, you go and contact this little Rons first, take down this company, and remember to keep the price down." Ernst said.
“Yes, Your Highness, I will make arrangements right away.”
…Karlsruhe.
The capital of the Grand Duchy of Baden is not much larger than Hechingen. Although Hechingen is a remote country, it has become more prosperous since Ernst developed.
The Hechingen Military Academy and a number of schools alone have increased the population of Hechingen a lot. The construction of Hohenzollern Castle and the school district has also boosted local employment, and Hechingen as a Hecheng The territory of the Xingen royal family should enjoy some other economic benefits and has developed well in recent years.
Although Karlsruhe is the second largest city in the southwest, second only to Stuttgart in the Kingdom of Württemberg, it only has a population of more than a hundred thousand people.
Rones Railway Company is located in Karlsruhe, the "big city" in South Germany.
"Mr. Nordin, I heard that our company has a new owner, is it true?" an employee asked the chief engineer of the Royce Railway Company.
“That’s right, the company has been acquired by Hechingen Bank.”
“Mr. Nordin, does that mean wages can be paid out!” Several employees asked eagerly road.
"Of course, I think you all know Hechingen Bank. It is a big bank and its reputation is naturally guaranteed, but it may not be easy to get the money." Nordin replied.
“Why?” Several employees asked eagerly. It was a matter of livelihood, so they were naturally anxious. The company had delayed their wages for two months.
"The new boss said that you can get a salary if you want, but the company has to relocate to East Africa." Nordin replied.
"East Africa, is it Africa? It's so far away, doesn't it mean we have to leave Baden?"
"That's right, the new boss said that the German market is saturated, and if he can't get orders, he won't be able to get orders. The only way to get a job is to go to East Africa."
"Ah! But we have a family, how can we go to East Africa?"
"The new boss said, encourage families. When you go to East Africa, the company will bear all the travel expenses, food, clothing, housing and transportation. When you go to East Africa, you will also be assigned a house, so you don’t have to worry too much.”
"But it is said that Africa is not a place for humans! I heard that it is full of wild beasts and cannibal tribes..."
"Don't follow other people's opinions. Africa is very big and there are always some good places. Although it is not as good as Germany, but It’s better than some icy places in Russia.”
“What’s the difference between this and exile? We’re not the Tsar’s criminals, going to dig potatoes in East Africa?”
“Don’t be impatient? What better idea do you have in East Africa? The previous boss left a lot of mess. It would be great if someone takes over now.
And what will you do if you don’t have a salary? This is considered a preferential treatment. Once you sign the contract, you can come back after ten years. The choice is up to you. If you don't want to work, you can resign. However, because you haven't worked in the first few months, you can only get one-third of your salary. ”
Putting it this way, it feels like Ernst is like a black-hearted boss. He is indeed the boss of Hechingen, but when compared with his peers, Ernst's conscience is highlighted again.
If someone else takes over, do you want a salary? Hum hum...
Ernst didn’t want to embarrass these poor people, but there was no way, no one wanted to go to East Africa! Especially those workers engaged in high-end industries.
If you don't force them, they will run away and resign the next day as soon as their wages are paid. Now Deutsche Bahn's business is very good and there are many choices.
Moreover, the current conditions in East Africa are not bad. They have all the basic necessities of life, including food, clothing, housing and transportation. However, the medical conditions may not be up to par. But in East Africa, they don’t have to do heavy work themselves. Millions of “laborers” are no joke. , that is, professional matters require your own people to take part.
If you take your family to East Africa, you will basically not have to worry about your livelihood for the rest of your life, because they are the first group. The earlier they go, the greater their advantage will be in the future. This is called seniority, so going to East Africa is not called exile, but " "Run", that's what Ernst himself thought anyway. When he thought about it, Ernst felt that he was still too kind. He helped workers keep their jobs, helped Baden solve a group of "potential" unemployed people, and at the same time developed East Africa. Won Ma.
