African Entrepreneurship Record

Chapter 233 Another chapter (do not order)

The state is a tool of class rule. Every country has its own path. The immigrants who come to East Africa will at most be ruled in another place.

In Germany and the Far East, the vast majority of people do not have land. The land is owned by the Junkers and the landlord class. Just like the people who came to the United States in this era, if they are not nobles and rich people, they must first become one when they go there. A few years of hard work.

The difference in East Africa is that below the people, there are also slaves. I may not be doing well, but if there are people who are worse off than me, then I am doing very well.

Ernst initially thought about allocating land to immigrants, but now it seems that it is completely unnecessary, because immigrants have no such demands and are used to working as tenant farmers for nobles and landowners. Suddenly they encountered the East African style of managing food, clothing, housing, and transportation, and even settling marriages. Instead, they are satisfied with the problem, after all, they cannot imagine a better life.

At the beginning, Ernst wanted to confer military merit on the land, but the fighting ability of the indigenous people was not worth the price, and the land remained in the hands of the Hechingen royal family.

In addition, East Africa belongs to the family and the country, and the Hechingen royal family owns the entire East Africa, causing the politics of East Africa to become a suture monster.

The current situation of agriculture looks like Soviet-style collective farms. The difference is that collective farms legally belong to the collective economy, that is, jointly owned by the villagers, while East Africa is privately owned, but almost all industries in East Africa are the private property of the Hechingen royal family.

Unlike large farmers in the United States, farmers mainly consider efficiency and whether they can make money. In East Africa, it is all about planning and efficiency is not considered. As a result, per capita productivity is not fully utilized. According to East Africa's two-year and five-year agricultural conditions, and the land The scale should push Italy beyond its past, but it doesn't.

East African immigrants were also kept somewhat lazy by Ernst, and the reason why this system did not collapse was the existence of the slave economy.

As for the question of whether you will lose money when selling food, it is completely over-worry. There will always be places in the world that are short of food. For example, in Japan, the contradiction between man and land is extremely prominent, and there are quite a few landless farmers. It has become the main source of rice in East Africa. As for the importing countries, it's not that East Africa has any special skills, it's just that Japan in this era is too poor and can only buy cheap rice from East Africa. East Africa, on the other hand, imports "women", cultural relics, and ancient books from Japan through grain trade, getting the best of both worlds.

Italy has the same experience. The quality of East African flour produced by the Trieste factory is notoriously poor, and Italy imports the most. East Africa took this opportunity to import family immigrants from the southern Italian region.

Now Ireland, a major immigrant country, has not been targeted by Ernst. It is not that he looks down upon Ireland, but that the British are too inappropriate. They do not even allow Germans to enter Ireland. The reason is also ready. The current situation in Ireland Not so good. The British are afraid of trouble caused by countries outside the region. Who knows if you are spies for the French.

Another reason is that the immigration wave in Ireland has passed for several years. That was around 1850. About 1.8 million people left Ireland. In addition, the previous great famine killed a quarter of the population. Now Ireland is just a little poorer. If you are dissatisfied with the UK, there is absolutely no reason to leave.

If immigrants can't get it, then they won't get it. Ernst is now somewhat relieved about the current scale of immigration, because in the first five months of the first half of this year, the number of people born in East Africa reached an astonishing 380,000. If nothing else, the entire 1870 , the population in East Africa will increase by more than 600,000 just by births, and with the immigrant population, it will easily exceed one million.

New immigrants will join the birth force after a while. According to a conservative three-year cycle, the population of East Africa will exceed 10 million in ten years.

Immigration is currently stable at 400,000 per year, which will be 4 million in ten years. However, immigration cannot remain so stable because there is still a world economic crisis that will last for several years. At that time, the population immigrating to East Africa will definitely explode in a short period of time.

Regarding the population issue, Ernst was already firmly on the Diaoyutai, so he had to focus on other undertakings in East Africa.

Land ownership was a headache for Ernst. Ernst knew very well that the Hechingen royal family could not always reach an agreement with this group of unruly people. As time went by, the land would have to be thrown away sooner or later.

It's just that you have to think carefully about when to throw and how to throw, and you can't make it crazy.

Now, some mines can be used for Austrian investment. This was planned before the establishment of the East African Kingdom.

By assisting Austria's industrial development with East Africa's mineral resources, East Africa will be able to complete its economic binding with Austria. If East Africa conflicts with Britain and France, the Austrian government will definitely be the first to take action.

Although the Suez Canal is in the hands of Britain and France, the biggest beneficiary is probably Austria. East Africa, which covers four million square kilometers, can also solve Austria's food and industrial raw material problems. The only flaw is that the East African market is not open to Austria, and at the same time, the tropical The quality of food is poor, and direct competition with Hungary is avoided. Even the raw materials for Ernst's Vienna factory come from Hungary, and the main focus is on the mid-to-high-level food market.

The market in East Africa is negligible, and the people's spending power is almost nonexistent. Even the wages they receive are bonds issued by the Bank of Hechingen. No one recognizes this thing after it comes out of East Africa.

The only thing Austria can make from East Africa is the weapons and equipment purchased by the government, such as large-caliber coastal defense artillery, gunboats, etc.

Relying on royal investment alone, development is still too slow. At the same time, some immigrants can also be diverted to enter the industrial field.

There is also the issue of the army. Now the East African army is not enough. With a land of four million square kilometers, the army must exceed 100,000 at least. Suppression of slaves also requires a huge army.

With the development of the agricultural slave economy, agriculture no longer uses so many people. After enough money has been saved for the future, the tractors of the Hechingen Energy Power Company have almost been built, so the slaves can still use them, but they are destined not to stay.

Cooperation with Austria is a national policy in East Africa. East Africa's education, scientific research, military industry and other industries will need support from Austria.

Now these are impossible to achieve in East Africa. Take education as an example. If we expect the education industry in East Africa to develop, we have to wait for at least two years. The first batch of East African students to enroll are only in the second grade. Even the international students are half-grown children. They go abroad. After that, you have to go to primary school, middle school, and finally receive higher education.

While higher education cannot develop for the time being, scientific research and military industry are naturally impossible to achieve, and even industries with slightly technical content are short of manpower.

But Ernst is not worried about this. East Africa has only been developing for three years, so it is better not to think about these things.

Moreover, East Africa has established a basic compulsory education system from the beginning. Sooner or later, this system will develop with the growth of the second generation of East Africa. It is only a matter of time. Now there are so many countries in the world that do not even have compulsory education, so the education industry in East Africa It’s not too late to start.

I haven't had much inspiration lately and can't write anything.
