Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After receiving the report from his subordinates, the young stationmaster of Manhattan Railway Station jogged all the way to Zhang Tie. At this time, Zhang Tie had already led his guards to the station warehouse area.

    Looking at the face of the young webmaster, Zhang Tie couldn't help but feel a sigh of relief.

    Because the Song Empire was established only a short time ago, and Zhao Hongyu cultivated young genetic people, the Chinese people living in the Song Empire were basically very young.

    The age structure is between 18 and 26 years old.

    It can be said that the Song Empire was a very young country.

    Here, you can feel the vitality brought by young people.

    This is why many Europeans are confused when they come to America.

    Because they have not seen an older Chinese person here in the Song Empire.

    Of course, although Europeans are confused about this, they are too lazy to explore it.

    After all, it¡¯s more important to be busy looking for a job to support your family, isn¡¯t it?

    " Professor Liu, who is quite old and of Chinese origin, is an exception, because Professor Liu is not a genetic person, he is a person from the virtual world.

    But Professor Liu is unique. Apart from him, there is no one like him in the entire Song Empire.

    In other words, Professor Liu is the only one who has voluntarily come to this time and space from the virtual world.

    I have to say that this is a little regrettable for Zhao Hongyu and the others.

    But it¡¯s a good thing for a country to be filled with young people, isn¡¯t it?

    ??At least within twenty years.  There is no need to worry about the development of the Song Empire.

    And here in the Song Empire, there was no family planning.  Then you can have as many children as you want.

    In addition, men of Chinese descent basically have wives now, so the future population growth trend of the empire is not a big problem.

    What¡¯s more, Zhao Hongyu can continue to cultivate young genetic people through the virtual trader.

    Therefore, the Song Empire did not have to worry about the danger of an aging population and a gap in the age structure of the population.

    As a modern person from another time and space, Zhao Hongyu certainly understands the truth.  That is from the early seventeenth century.  Until the early 20th century, population was a very important foundation for a country.

    If a country¡¯s population does not have a certain numerical basis, then ruling the world will become a joke.

    For example, Zhang Tie and Zhao Hongyu have always maintained a supportive attitude on this issue.

    Besides, because Zhang Tie and the others were given permission by Zhao Hongyu, they also have a certain share of expenses every month.

    ?Basically, what they spend every month.  Half of it is used to cultivate genetic people of Chinese descent.

    Because they also understand very well that in the development of the empire, the cornerstone of stability is to have a certain number of Chinese people.

    Only when the Chinese population accounts for a certain proportion of the total population of the empire will the empire truly stabilize.

    Once the entire population of the empire is of Chinese descent, it will definitely pose a great risk to the stability of the empire.

    It¡¯s also thanks to the fact that the Empire is still very young.  In the three or four years since the founding of the country, the empire has demonstrated its strong military combat effectiveness to the outside world.

    In addition, in the past few years, the European church forces who attempted to subvert the empire were dealt with.

    Therefore, within ten years, the stability of the empire is still guaranteed.

    Moreover.  As time goes by, the empire will gradually develop.

    And because of the cheating device.  The empire will steadily improve, both politically and militarily.

    ¡°In ten years¡¯ time, the empire will at least be able to reach the technological level of the 19th century in another time and space.

    In this way, the empire is the only powerful country in this world.

    "It's a great honor for me to have the Governor come here in person. I wonder what the purpose of the Governor's visit is?"

    The young train station director said some small compliments, and then asked Zhang Tie about his purpose.

    As the governor of Manhattan and a prominent figure in the military competition, Zhang Tiena is an absolutely noble figure among the Chinese ethnic group.

    Because he has to manage a huge piece of land in Manhattan, Zhang Tie has a lot of things to deal with every day.

    Therefore, if it was not a special matter, the Governor would not come to the train station in person.

    ?The young stationmaster didn't know yet, but a train of goods had already entered the station. This train of goods was very important to Zhang Tie.

    Otherwise, Zhang Tie would not have brought people to the train station in person.

    "I'm here to receive a batch of goods. This batch of goods is shipped from Ontario City. It has now entered the station. Because the goods are quite special, I can't worry about it, so I brought people here in person."

    Although he was facing a small railway station chief, Zhang Tie still explained it in a pleasant manner.

    Although it was not stated clearly what kind of goods it was, the smart railway station director did not ask.

    After all, given his position as the head of a small train station, there are some things that are better not known.

    "In this case, I will dispatch manpower to unload the goods immediately."

    Rather than continuing to argue about the issue of the goods, the stationmaster of the railway station quickly said that he would dispatch manpower to unload the goods as soon as possible.

    "I know there are a lot of European workers here at the train station. Just let these people come, and help me hire fifty carriages at the same time!"

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    It actually requires fifty carriages, which shows that the unloaded goods are very heavy.

    However, these are not things that you need to explore. When facing Governor Zhang Tie, it is better for you to ask less.

    Although the stationmaster of the railway station was young, he was extremely smart about these things, and he happily took the order and left.

    Zhang Tie was waiting for the laborers to arrive in the goods yard.

    Like the train station area in another time and space, the train station area in Manhattan in this era also has places that can be called "jianghu".

    As the saying goes, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.  Where there are rivers and lakes, there will be grievances and grievances.

    Of course, there are also interests mixed in.  is the most correct.

    Since the opening of the train between Ontario City and Manhattan City, the train stations in the two places have become the main location for certain guilds to be stationed because of their huge interests.

    ??Among them, the Labor Workers¡¯ Guild values ??the train station the most.

    Because every day, there are several trains running between the two cities.

    Because of commercial development, many goods will be transported to the two cities by train.

    Then, loading and unloading can be very profitable.

    Early days.  The laborers were just looking for work on the Manhattan docks.

    With the development of Manhattan, the loading and unloading of goods has gradually become more and more prosperous with the trend.

    Although the immigrants from Europe are not highly educated, not everyone has a skill.  Therefore, entering the labor industry has become inevitable.

    Anyway, as long as you have some strength and can bear the hardship, you can do it.  There is no threshold limit for this industry, so most of the survivors who came to America will come to work as laborers.

    ? ? Labor force, as the name suggests, is actually a professional job that involves working hard.

    ?According to modern parlance, it is better to call it a stevedore.

    ?In fact, essentially.  Still a laborer.

    Because of the emergence of trains, there are six trains in Manhattan every day, departing from Manhattan to Ontario City.  At the same time, there are also many high-end products produced in Manhattan that are trafficked through the train.

    With so many wagons of goods, someone always needs to load them.

    Because of special reasons.  As there are no loading and unloading machinery at stations in Manhattan and Ontario, manual loading and unloading has become inevitable.

    But.  There are a number of trains and a number of goods being loaded and unloaded.

    So, it can be said that the cake at the train station is not very big.

    When faced with many groups that want a piece of the pie, there will inevitably be some armed conflicts.

    Although these guilds are not underworld, they are inextricably linked to the underworld.

    Zhang Tie is also aware of this.

    Fortunately, Zhao Hongyu and Zhang Tie considered this situation early on, so they made some arrangements early.

    The largest gang in the Song Empire under the control of the Ministry of Intelligence, the Manhattan Gang, can be said to be the well-deserved underworld boss in Manhattan.

    Therefore, this benefit of the train station was eventually seized by a labor union controlled by the Manhattan Gang.

    Although the Manhattan Gang is the boss of the underworld, he only has the largest number of gang members in Manhattan and cannot keep his word.

    Investigate the reason, this is also something that can¡¯t be helped.

    Because every day, boatloads of European immigrants arrive at the Manhattan pier.  ?In order to survive, these immigrants will definitely stick together, and they may not necessarily join the Manhattan Gang.

    Therefore, gangs, large and small, have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.

    Although the Manhattan Gang continues to attack and eliminate them, it cannot be completely eradicated.

    Finally, Zhang Tie finally understood that as long as immigration continues, gangs will definitely continue to appear.

    Therefore, when faced with such a situation, it is better to relax a little and let it develop within a controllable range.

    ¡°However, as long as I ensure that the Manhattan Gang will always be stronger than these European gangs, that¡¯s it.

    ¡° Anyway, these people can¡¯t afford to cause any big trouble. When the empire develops stably in the future, we can just deal with these gangs at once.

    Huh, just when Zhang Tie thought, a group of people who crushed outside the cargo was coming from a distance.

    Needless to say, it must be the laborers hired by the webmaster.

    After these people entered the goods yard, a guy who looked like the leader came over.

    Of course, there is no need for Zhang Tie to meet such a small person in person.

    Zhang Tie¡¯s adjutant chatted with the head laborer for a while, and then the head laborer walked back and waved to his companions.

    Then, these workers rushed to the train that was parked on the track in the freight yard, opened the door of the train and began to unload the goods from the inside.

    The huge cargo covered with canvas was slightly opened by the wind.

    Under the sunlight, it has a unique luster of metal, reflecting its unique brilliance.

    "Hahaha! I didn't expect this guy Song Hu to actually buy so many scrapped tractors! With these tractors, the farmers around Manhattan will be extremely happy!"

    Zhang Tie¡¯s eyes shone as he understood what the goods Song Hu sent by train were
