As Songhu fell into the hands of Liu Jin, Liu Jin also began to make arrangements.
Songhu is a good place.
Liu Jin looked at the map of Songhu and carefully thought about how to plan.
Songhu at this time was far from being compared with Shanghai in later generations. It was just an ordinary county town. Except for the county town, the rest of the city was filled with paddy fields, a land of plenty, and hairy crabs running rampant.
"This is also quite close to Ma'anshan. Miyun Iron Works can build a branch here. With iron, other things will be much easier to handle. Moreover, the Jiangnan area is also the place where the largest iron consumption is in the entire Ming Dynasty."
"The cement plant must be built. The Tianjin Cement Plant can also build a branch plant here in Songhu, but it still needs to attract more other people to build cement plants here in Songhu."
"Cement has already become popular in the north, and the south has strong economic strength. Once it becomes popular, it will only be about building bridges and paving roads. The amount of cement needed in the south will be astronomical."
¡°Textile factories are also indispensable. The south is the origin of silk, and there is also a large amount of cotton grown here. The key is that labor is much cheaper than in the Beijing and Tianjin areas.¡±
"Well, a glass factory will also be built in Songhu to meet the demand for glass in the south. It will be much more convenient to export overseas in the future."
"Shipyards also need to be built. With the rise of capitalism in the south and the rise of maritime trade, it is estimated that it will soon surpass the north. We must come to occupy the pit beforehand."
Liu Jin calculated carefully with his fingers.
There are too many industries under his command, but they are basically concentrated in the north. The next step is to slowly expand to the south and the entire Ming Dynasty.
For Songhu to develop, its superior geographical location alone is not enough.
The Ming Dynasty has thousands of miles of sea territory, and there are many good places.
But not every place can develop.
It has a superior geographical location and requires a lot of investment and construction to drive it forward.
The development of Shanghai in later generations was not only because of its good geographical location, but also because the country concentrated its efforts on building Shanghai, so it built the Pearl of the Orient.
The same is true for Songhu now. It is just an ordinary county. Without investment, it would be difficult for it to grow.
Even if it can get up, its speed will be very slow. Maybe in decades or hundreds of years, it may not be as prosperous as Tianjin is now.
Tianjin¡¯s current situation was only possible due to the millions of taels of silver Liu Jin brought there.
Investment is necessary, and it must be invested on a large scale.
Soon, Liu Jin's orders were conveyed to many industries under his command. Miyun Iron Factory, Tianjin Cement Factory, Tianjin Textile Factory, Garment Factory, Coal Factory, Glass Factory, Shipbuilding Factory, etc. also began to send people south to Songhu. .
We are going to follow Liu Jin¡¯s instructions to start selecting a site in Songhu and prepare to invest in setting up a factory.
Liu Jin is the benchmark for the Beijing-Tianjin region.
Many industries under Liu Jin were planning to invest and build factories in Songhu. Once the news spread, people in the entire Beijing and Tianjin areas began to follow Liu Jin's footsteps.
A large number of capitalists, factory owners, and workshop owners also sent people to Songhu, preparing to follow Liu Jin's footsteps and invest and build factories here in Songhu.
Everyone has already decided on one thing.
If you want to get rich, you must follow Liu Jin, follow this master's disciple, follow this God of Wealth, and you will not go wrong in keeping it.
¡¡
Songhu.
Sun Xin, who bought almost the entire Songhu, was in no hurry to leave.
He started recruiting workers on a large scale, not only here in Songhu, but also in the Suzhou, Hangzhou, Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas around Songhu.
Teams of people set out from Songhu, bringing a few locals with them. Everywhere they went, they started beating gongs and drums and shouting.
"We're hiring~ We're hiring~"
"Recruiting workers to build docks, ports, and cement roads in Songhu~"
"Three taels of silver a month, paid in full on a monthly basis, including three meals a day, and enough food for every meal."
With such attractive conditions, it is almost effortless to find someone.
In less than half a month, tens of thousands of people from various places around Songhu began to gather here in Songhu.
Sun Xin?The jobs given to them nearby are also very simple, including building docks, ports, and cement roads.
These are all what Liu Jin asked him to do. For a place to develop, the basic hardware facilities must be developed first.
This is the principle behind the three connections and one leveling in later generations.
Songhu is still very backward. There is no concrete road. The docks on the Huangpu River are all made of wood. They are very small and cannot accommodate many ships.
¡° Various factories and workshops will be opened here in the future, but it will not work without these basic things.
Thousands of people gathered here in Songhu, turning the entire Songhu into a bustling construction site.
Massive amounts of matter began to gather continuously.
Every day, dozens of large ships arrive in Songhu. The ships are filled with cement, cement in standard wooden barrels, and ship after ship of steel bars.
¡°The only one that can produce steel bars now is Miyun Iron Works. In this summer of building high-rise buildings, building ports and docks is absolutely indispensable without reinforced concrete.
With steel and cement, the construction of this infrastructure is very fast.
It seems that tall buildings are rising from the ground, and it seems that the sea is changing.
On both sides of the Huangpu River, great changes are taking place every day.
The day before yesterday, both sides of the Huangpu River were still paddy fields and tidal flats, but soon thousands of people came here. They were busy here every day. Large ships arrived here one after another to unload massive amounts of materials. Come down.
Then, in just a few days, a huge open space was built on the bank of the Huangpu River. The open space was paved with cement. Next to the open space, newly built docks were neatly arranged.
A few days later, a spacious cement road was built along the bank of the Huangpu River. This cement road was very spacious, and saplings were planted in the middle. It was euphemistically called a green belt.
It¡¯s like magic, the speed is so fast that it¡¯s incredible.
In just a few days, earth-shaking changes have occurred.
This shocked all the local people in Songhu County. Every day when they had nothing to do, these local people in Songhu would come to the Huangpu River to have a look.
Look at the bustling construction site and see the huge changes.
But this is just the beginning.
Along both sides of the Huangpu River, more and more wharves are built and bigger, and they are arranged neatly. Large ships can be moored on the wharves, and the wharf has become extremely busy.
The road is also being built farther and farther, starting to be built farther away, horizontally and vertically, like a neatly planned chessboard, planning the surrounding large areas of land into square and square places.
At the same time, buildings began to rise on both sides of the spacious road.
This kind of building made of reinforced concrete is very tall, with any one having seven or eight floors, standing like giants on both sides of the Huangpu River.
¡°Compared with these buildings, the houses in Songhu County appear very small and ugly.
The exterior walls of these buildings are all covered with ceramic tiles, which are very beautiful. The windows are very large and equipped with glass windows. At night, whale oil lamps are lit, which are magnified by glass lamps.
These buildings are brightly lit and resplendent.
¡°Looking at where I live, the entire Songhu County is pitch black at night, without any comparison.
However, at this time, the locals in Songhu were no longer in the mood to compare these.
Because they have also become very busy.
With the construction here in Songhu, the local people in Songhu suddenly discovered that money suddenly became easier to earn.
To work, the monthly payment is three taels of silver, which also includes three meals a day.
If you have a brain and some capital, you can sell things.
More and more people are gathering here in Songhu. In the past, there were only more than 20,000 people in Songhu, but now, there are tens of thousands of people working on both sides of the Huangpu River alone.
Everything is very easy to sell.
The vegetables you grow, the chickens, ducks and geese you raise, the fish you catch from the water, the crabs you catch, etc., as long as you have the goods in hand, they will be robbed immediately if you bring them to the construction site.
The whole of Songhu is becoming more and more lively, with more and more people and more and more consumption.
There are specialized businessmen who go to the areas around Songhu to buy chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, fish, etc. These things are very cheap in rural areas, but if they are resold and transported to Songhu, you can immediately make a good profit.
Local grain merchants are even more busy, constantly purchasing grain from various places and transporting it to Songhu to satisfy this growing appetite.
The huge amount of funds injected into Songhu seems to have given Songhu a powerful impetus, making the entire Songhu extremely noisy and lively.
But this is just the beginning.
With the initial construction of docks and ports, cement roads were also initially constructed, and factories began to settle here one after another in Songhu.
