Reborn in Brazil As a Plutocrat

  Chapter 143 Immigrant's happy moment

  Just when Zhou Changlin smiled happily as his aunt, the farmers around him who chose to buy land with loans were all happy.

  However, most of the immigrants were sold on board alone. Therefore, one person would not dare to buy so much land, and most of them bought less than ten acres of land.

  Everyone is looking at the crops in their land and giggling.

  After all, even if you add the immigration fees that the immigration company needs to charge, plus the loan for buying farmland, it seems a bit out of the question now.

   After all, as long as you are not a slob, three years will be enough time to pay off all your debts.

  The only thing that makes people feel inconvenient is that the place where they live is still the worker's dormitory in the original farm.

   Moreover, everyone is not allowed to build houses in their own fields.

  All housing must be planned uniformly and exist in the form of a village, which is said to ensure the safety of the Chinese in Brazil.

   Actually, it doesn’t matter if we can live together, it’s just that we have to walk a certain distance to work in the field, which is not very convenient.

   Of course, this is insignificant compared with security.

  When the news reached the ears of the immigrants who were still hesitating whether to take a loan to buy land, or the immigrants who were planning to work in factories as workers.

  Everyone fell into madness. Everyone's land plot is engraved in their genes. The enthusiasm for buying land with a loan broke out at this moment, including the people rescued by Fang Lang from Brazil.

  Fang Lang didn't stop him from doing this, after all, the factory here hasn't been established yet.

  When job opportunities appear in cities, farmers will naturally put down their land and move from the countryside to the cities.

  Fang Lang simply divided these people into eight small villages and resettled them on the land of the original Yakubu family.

  The fields are full of crops, and there is no need to plant them, so we organize everyone to build a house together.

  The land of the house continues to be loaned to the immigration company just like the money to build the house.

  Now everyone is no longer worried about getting a loan from an immigration company, after all, everyone knows that they can afford it.

  Of course, there are also many people who are unwilling to continue to borrow money from immigration companies, and want to live in the dormitory on the farm first, and then buy homesteads and build houses after earning money.

  This is the traditional concept of most people. It is understandable to spend money if you want to have money.

All the immigrants plus the rescued laborers are less than 5,000 people, and the 5,800 hectares of land is 87,000 mu. Even if the per capita arable land area is 10 mu, there is still a lot of land left. people buy.

  Compared to the three acres of arable land per capita when the country was founded in my hometown, ten acres per capita is indeed a lot, but compared with the current per capita arable land area in Brazil, it is also a normal level.

  Of course, the agricultural development areas Fang Lang arranged for his compatriots are mainly concentrated in the state of Rio Grande do Sul in southern Brazil. The land in the south is flatter and the arable land resources are more abundant.

  As for the Rio Grande do Norte state where Natal is located, only Natal is still a bit flat, with an average altitude of only three meters. If you go west less than 50 kilometers, it will become plateaus and mountains.

  There is insufficient space for agricultural development. Of course, the plateau and mountains are also the main cotton and corn producing areas in the state. However, when Fang Lang grabs the site, he also grabs a good place first!

Even if the south is over, there is still the "savanna" in the central and western regions, which accounts for 21% of Brazil's land area. Such a large territory has not yet been occupied, and he will not start in the agriculturally underdeveloped northeastern region A large number of agricultural development.

  The reason why these immigrants are resettled in Natal is also to increase the proportion of Chinese population in Natal. Natal is mainly Fang Lang's military base.

  In addition, the focus will be on the development of labor-intensive industries in Natal, which will be used to accommodate the families of officers and soldiers of the First Fleet.

   It's not enough to just pay the soldiers allowances. At that time, the soldiers' families will all work in Fang Lang's factory, and they will also receive Fang Lang's salary.

  Then Fang Lang's First Fleet will completely become Fang Lang's private army, a warlord who is not a warlord.

  Fang Lang spent a week arranging and familiarizing himself with the work of the First Fleet. After all, there are many new recruits, and Fang Lang also needs to get acquainted with everyone.

  A lot of things happened this week. The bank has officially started construction. During the construction of the bank, the staff of the bank have also been in place, and they have rented an office building in Natal.

  All the immigration, land and housing loan business of the immigration company were handed over to the newly established Brazilian Development Bank.

At the same time, the construction of the first textile factory, sugar factory, and tannery in Natal also started. Fang Lang also announced to all the officers and soldiers of the First Fleet that the families of the officers and soldiers of the First Fleet will have priority to work in the factory .

  Building a factory requires a lot of labor, which creates a lot of jobs for the residents of Natal, which makes the residents of Natal very happy.

  With the arrival of the entire First Fleet, the officers and soldiers now belong to the high-income group, and nearby residents have also started doing business near the barracks.

  For the safety of the barracks, Fang Lang planned to build the first dedicated commercial street in Natal after communicating with Mr. Mayor Dursley.

  Because the gang in Natal was eradicated by Fang Lang, causing the overt and secret J courts to be closed, and the girls could only go to the streets to solicit customers and become wanderers.

  The appearance of these wandering warblers also caused Fang Lang a great headache. The business of unknown female attributes in Brazil is neither completely legal nor completely illegal.

  For the sake of the soldiers' health, Fang Lang had no choice but to order the city government to centrally manage all the wandering warblers, issue licenses, check their bodies regularly, and distribute free family planning supplies.

  Maybe it was because this was where the U.S. military used to be stationed. After the news spread that the city government had issued licenses to Liu Ying, a large number of girls jumped out of nowhere and came to register.

  The number of people who registered in a week turned out to be thousands, which frightened Fang Lang a lot, don't wait until it becomes an uncivilized city, he called to stop again and again.

  The final number of registered people still reached 1,500. There is no way that so many people need to make a living on this. Fang Lang can only ask the city government to plan a bar entertainment street.

  In order to prevent illegal incidents, this street has become a key area for the police.

  Finally finished dealing with the affairs of the First Fleet, Fang Lang finally flew to Rio de Janeiro with a guard platoon on his own special plane.

   At the airport, Colonel Tiche and Major Blackwell from the Rio de Janeiro Naval Base were greeted.

   After the meeting, a few people exchanged pleasantries, and Fang Lang was taken to the naval base in Rio de Janeiro.

   "Hey! Fang, how come you have time to leave your First Fleet and come to visit us in Rio!"

   "Everyone hasn't seen each other for so long, don't you welcome me?"

   The relationship between Fang Lang and the two is very good now, so communication is also easy and casual.

   Colonel Teach saw Fang Lang's expression of coming to see you on a special trip, and directly pierced:

   "Didn't your kid come to see us on business? Cut!"

   "Haha. Everyone is so busy, of course I came to visit you during the work break!"

   Fang Lang wouldn't feel embarrassed about such a trivial matter!

   "What is the main reason for your visit this time! Can you tell me about it?"

  Blackwell couldn't help asking.

   "It's nothing serious. I just came to see General Letta of the General Logistics Department about the equipment for the Army's establishment of tank divisions."

  Tichi heard Fang Lang talking about such an important matter in such a relaxed tone, and said repeatedly:

   "Look at Fang, this casual tone, that's Brazil's first tank division, it's no big deal to you kid?"

  Fang Lang glanced at Colonel Tiqi strangely and said:

   "Hey! Brother Tiqi, do you know about this?"

   "What's so strange about this, now the army is arguing over who will be the first to be converted into a tank division. Is this a secret thing?"

   Colonel Teach took it for granted.

  Fang Lang glanced at Blackwell again, obviously knowing and said:

   "Two brothers! In the future, don't forget to inform me about this kind of information! Although the brother's station is far away, but the brother's heart is very close! I also want to know something important about the army!"

   Fang Lang didn't know the news very late, because it was a week ago that General Leta of the Logistics Department asked him to find a supplier quotation.

  However, apart from getting the news from General Leta, Fang Lang has never heard of the news from other sources.

  Obviously, his promotion was too fast, he lacked the experience in the grassroots of the army, and he didn't have the corresponding contacts. Moreover, the current station was also the heart of the country.

  Indeed, there is a lot of news that he cannot learn. It seems that in the future, he will have to arrange someone to collect this information, otherwise he will miss any good business.

   When the two heard Fang Lang's words, Blackwell said strangely:

  "Don't you know? It's not right! I don't know why you came here? No, it's the army's business! You navy came here to join in the fun!

   It's not right either, it's General Leta you want to see. What on earth are you guys doing here? "

  Hearing Blackwell talking to himself, Colonel Teach also reacted.

   "That's right! Why did you come here for this matter! No, what he just said was for the equipment. It can't be that you have a way to get the equipment!"

  Brazil's military equipment is generally requested by the Ministry of Defense or the army, and then the General Logistics Department is responsible for procurement.

  Because there is no military factory in Brazil, there is no equipment department yet, so it cannot manufacture by itself.

   Obviously, military generals will not be responsible for the procurement of equipment, and everyone would not have thought that Fang Lang would have a way to obtain arms, so they didn't think about it.

   "Hey, there is such a small relationship! Why, does Brother Tiqi also want to purchase two warships for fun?"

   Fang Lang smiled and said.

   "You boy is really supernatural! My warships are all old WW1 antiques, of course I want it! But this is not something I can decide!"

   Colonel Teach shook his head with a wry smile.

  Fang Lang is also very aware of the current status of the Brazilian Navy, but this is not something he can change.

   But this does not prevent him from giving Colonel Teach some information. If Colonel Teach can persuade the Admiralty to replace the warship, isn't this a business?

   "If you really want to change, you can go to the Ministry of the Navy! Let me tell you this! My channel can now get you the active warships of the US military, but they are second-hand.

   Destroyers, submarines, and cruisers can all have them. "
