Times always give us a boomerang without even realizing it.
"People from the East will migrate, and our people will take over the mainstream, but now, we need more labor, especially when the local large-scale machinery cannot be used."
"The Nirvana Plan has never been a plan of the Eastern Kingdom. During this process, many countries have gradually formed friendly relations of interest. Don't get me wrong, our country has always been non-aligned, but as the leader of the Nirvana Plan, we need
shoulder the responsibilities entrusted to us by the times”
Lu Pingan's cooperation made the officials a lot more friendly. Everyone knew that Lu Pingan occupies an important position in the entire strategy, and no one would be stupid enough to offend this "white body (empty military title)"
Lu Ping'an listened for a while but didn't understand. After the other person explained it again, he suddenly realized that his "perception" had deviated again due to the different world lines.
Although our country in the East is non-aligned, it is normal to have some friendly states. It is not like Citi on the other side of the ocean. It is a bit ridiculous to form cliques at every turn, but in essence, it is the same, but the words are different.
.
The biggest difference between the two timelines is that pollution appeared too early, which led to the relative independence of various countries and regions. Citigroup, which has gradually been unable to suck blood from the world since the 1950s, is naturally not as powerful as Lu Ping An's impression.
.
Then, the Eastern Continent of Asia is naturally the sphere of influence of the traditional Eastern Kingdom. This is also the reason why the Nirvana Project can bring neighboring countries together to play with it.
Some small countries are very realistic. Reality has taught them that if they want to live a good life, they must lick the big countries and maintain good relations with the powerful allies around them.
As the boss of the area, when your younger brother is in trouble or beaten, you must take care of him.
Otherwise, people's hearts will be scattered, and the boss will seem to be fake, and others will no longer recognize you as the boss.
Citigroup was actually very unhappy that the Austrian Independent State was in trouble, and it had to take care of it.
This directly led to the proliferation of illegal immigrants and a sharp decline in social security.
The same goes for the east side. Some of the island countries along the coast have even sunk. If you, the east country, really don't care, your leading position in the Nirvana Project is equivalent to an empty title.
"This can serve multiple purposes. It can also be used to resettle the victims, and at the same time, they can become a labor force if they have nothing."
The needs of disaster victims are not at the same level as those of ordinary civilians. Only they are willing to do a lot of hard work, especially after leaving their homeland and losing their protection. They will "honest" many dishonest words, and there are ways to make them honest.
Looking at the dark-skinned workers in the planned new city construction area, Lu Ping'an couldn't comment. He hadn't seen humans working on the construction site for many years. This job was basically taken care of by the long-handed tribe and fishmen.
"Deploy some local large-scale machinery to come over. If this continues, they will suffer, and the quality of the project will not be guaranteed. Most importantly, the local labor groups will protest against us."
Lu Pingan sighed, as long as he started taking care of things, completely unexpected troubles would always happen.
The locals are very welcoming to outsiders, especially when they find that most of them are human beings. But when they find out that these non-Eastern people are actually coming for their physical work such as "carrying" and "dusting", they immediately
It feels bad.
They did not protest openly, but "labor gangs" such as the sand bully and the brick bully in the old era of the earth have always existed in the local area. Once blood really breaks out and a blood feud between races occurs, I am afraid there will be big trouble.
.
On the other hand, the remuneration of these people's labor is also a troublesome issue. This is not just a matter of money.
Currently, the main currency in circulation in the New Kingdom is still the coins of the Eastern Kingdom. This is not a problem, because if the New Kingdom cannot unify the "warlords" and forcibly implement the new currency, it will directly lead to many areas refusing to use the new currency. Once such a situation occurs
, will directly cause economic turmoil in the entire country.
And if these people are given Dongguo coins as a reward in a certain sense, the reward amount is basically an insult, an order of magnitude less than the prison money for entering and working on a sewing machine.
“How to deal with it?”
Lu Ping An is a bit confused. It is not impossible to pay according to the remuneration of Dongguo people, but Lu Ping An estimates that if he is paid here, the local workers there will go to heaven.
Unequal pay for equal work, and the difference is still a three-digit multiple. This arouses conflict at more than one or two points. Moreover, such a "huge sum of money" is directly given to these outsiders. As soon as they consume locally, they all become rich, and the locals
The economy will collapse directly.
"Forget it, never mind."
Unexpectedly, he didn't think about it. Lu Ping'an directly threw these troubles to those officials. Their administrative work was professional. If it really collapsed, they were also responsible.
And the facts have proved that they are indeed capable. They directly created a token construction site to make money and spend it on the construction site without even thinking of taking a penny home.
This is actually equivalent to offering an ultra-low wage. If this kind of token is circulated locally, it will also give a very low amount, but as long as it is not exchanged, these foreign workers can deceive themselves.
As long as the supply of materials is maintained, this is not a problem in the short term, but in the long term
"Dongguan is negotiating with the new country. We intend to support them in discovering a new currency. In the early stage, it will be anchored to the Dongguo currency at a ratio of 100 to one, but it will gradually decouple."
After hearing this statement, Lu Ping'an didn't understand it for a long time. In the end, he could only give a thumbs up.
"You plan to directly control the economic lifeline of the new country. It is much better than us taking some political privileges. You are really professional."
"You seem to have gone too far. This is obviously mutual benefit. Their currency and their economic system need our support. We just want to win together."
"Okay, okay, the military and economy have been taken away. It's a win-win situation. Isn't this a completely comprador government?" Mr. Lu can now be more honest.
Although he sighed a few words, Lu Ping'an had no dissatisfaction. After all, he was also from Dongguo, and it was estimated that he could gain a lot in this process.
Things like economics and finance, especially in this world's relatively rudimentary commodity-based economy era, ultimately have to be addressed by the "production side", and it goes without saying which chamber of commerce is the world's largest arms dealer and logistics manufacturer.
"Come on."
The new employees are very diligent, although their mental state is generally quite bad. After all, many of them have suffered disasters and lost everything in the past six months.
And as a result, the security here will also drop a lot.
"Twelve refugees died? Were they killed while taking to the streets?"
"They are a gang among refugees. They don't want to work honestly and go to the streets to collect protection money."
“There are so many professionals per capita here”
"Uh, I haven't told them yet."
Although it is easy for those who lose everything to go to extremes, the hardware here is one aspect, and the other aspect is
"The local homicide and disappearance cases are already horribly high. If there are more, it won't matter."
In this difficult world, there seems to be nothing to fear.
When Lu Ping'an was preparing to open the courtyard to these outsiders as planned, he was stopped.
"They have to work very hard every day and don't have time to become professionals. We can give priority to the people in the Eastern Army. At least, let them calm down a little bit."
Wait a moment? Based on the current throughput of the courtyard, if this priority really falls behind the locals, it might be several years later.
But this is probably what Dongguo needs.
The people of the East must always have the absolute advantage and let them gradually integrate into this mixed world, which is good for each other.
"Okay, do you want me to raise the threshold and fees?"
"Can you do it? Well, let me tell you, is it a bit too much?"
"No, you see that the Resistance Chamber of Commerce needs more voluntary workers and believers. Isn't it natural that the devout should be given priority? God only allows good people to enter heaven."
