Chapter 353: The Great Migration
Just when the world's major food exporting countries were suffering from the low food prices priced by Homo Sapiens.
A large cruise ship coming from Dongba is slowly docking at the upgraded Hongku Port passenger terminal.
This is a large cruise ship with a displacement of 200,000 tons, 2,500 cabins and the capacity to carry 10,000 passengers (including 836 crew members).
The ship is built by the Ceylon Shipbuilding Corporation, which was established in September last year. A total of four cruise ships of this type have been built so far. These are conventional-powered transport ships.
These four large cruise ships are mainly used for large-scale population migration.
For example, this time we came to Hongku Port to transport more than 9,000 Dongba people here. These people will serve as the main force in the development of the coastal agricultural areas of the Red Sea Province.
When it comes to growing rice, the Dongba people are better than the Egyptians.
The reason why so many Dongba people immigrated here was mainly because the population of the Red Sea Province was too small, only about 400,000 people.
Even though Xu Yingcheng, the person in charge of Hongku Port, has tried hard to attract people from the surrounding areas, Hongku Port now has a population of only more than 8,000, which is really too small.
According to the regulations of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Sapiens Company, only cities with a population of more than 100,000 are qualified to be called cities, otherwise they are small towns.
Moreover, the population is too small, which is not conducive to the development of various service industries. We cannot build a hospital or a university just for a few thousand people!
The trained Dongba immigrants got off the cruise ship in an orderly manner. They all came with their families. Those Dongba people who have become new humans took on temporary management work.
Xu Yingcheng led his team to meet with the head of the immigration team of the Ministry of the Interior, and then handed over the employee data files.
Zhang Kai, the head of the Internal Affairs Office in charge of Hongku Port's internal affairs, flipped through the brief table of the data file and connected the employee data to the local database.
Zhang Kai said somewhat helplessly: "Finally, the population has reached 18,000."
"In two weeks, another group of Javanese immigrants will come by boat. In addition, there are about 2,400 immigrants from the Far East who will come in batches by plane." The head of the immigration team of the Ministry of the Interior said with a smile.
When it comes to adding sand, the Sapiens company is very professional.
The immigrants in each new city will definitely not come from the same place, but will be a mixture of immigrants from at least several regions.
Obviously, Sapiens does not want the previous regional and ethnic barriers to continue to exist within Sapiens.
The new humans everywhere are also doing a lot of assimilation work. They are instilling concepts such as "Homo sapiens" and "corporate man" into everyone to replace previous concepts such as Luzon people, Thai people, and Chinese people.
The concepts of the elderly are more difficult to change, and are not the focus of assimilation and transformation, but the new generation has gradually accepted concepts such as Homo sapiens and corporate man.
It is estimated that within a decade or so, the concept of Homo sapiens will be widely accepted.
In the temporary rest area of the port.
Xu Yingcheng handed over the resettlement work to Zhang Kai and went back to deal with the local industrial layout.
Zhang Kai and his deputy, Lida Sind, quickly and temporarily recruited more than a hundred new humans from the immigrants and asked them to help them settle down.
In terms of work ability, the new humans can adapt to various jobs, and their internal unity is very high. They are also happy to help with this kind of temporary requisition.
One of the middle-aged immigrants, wearing a jute shirt, held up a list of registered permanent residents and asked, "Chief Zhang, are there enough houses to be allocated here?"
"Don't worry! The construction team has built 16 dormitory buildings within a month, which can accommodate 3,200 households. There are also two temporary container dormitory areas that can accommodate 10,000 people." Zhang Kai replied like a treasure trove.
“It seems like the infrastructure here has caught up.”
Lida Sind shook her head: "Not yet. In such a poor place, there are still many lessons to be learned!"
While they were talking, several buses started picking up immigrants to the dormitory area.
…
Maggie, who ran from the slums of Cairo, stayed alone in the staff dormitory.
She is trying hard to learn English by watching the teaching videos on her mobile phone. The reason she is learning English is mainly because many people in Egypt can speak English, so she can learn it faster.
As for the other dozen or so official languages of Homo sapiens, Maggie didn't know any of them at all.
She had the courage to come here alone, which was commendable.
As for the Egyptians living along the Red Sea coast, they mainly spoke Bein, which was different from the common Arabic in Cairo.
It was only after she came here that she realized there were very few people speaking Arabic. In order to facilitate work and life, she had to learn English.
"Maggie, are you learning English again?" A woman in her twenties greeted with a smile.
Maggie quickly said in stuttering English: "Hello! Sister Meng."
Ruan Meng shrugged: "It's okay to speak Arabic, don't force yourself."
Maggie admires Ruan Meng very much because she is fluent in several languages, which makes her feel like a complete fool.
"No, I must learn it."
Looking at the determined little girl, Ruan Meng also recalled her past self. She was born in a rural area in northern Annan. She has several brothers and sisters in her family. In order to make a living, she started working very early.
Until the year before last, she was tricked by her fellow villagers into going to Siam , and then she encountered the Siam mutation. By chance, she stayed in Siam.
Later at work, after being introduced by the team leader, I became a new human being.
This time, she applied to come to Egypt to work on her own initiative.
Ruan Meng had learned about Maggie's experience before. She grew up in the slums of Cairo. Her parents made a living by picking up garbage. Last year, her mother died of illness, and she started picking up garbage and selling it for a living.
Some time ago, the Human Resources Department went to Cairo to hold a job fair, and this girl took the opportunity to apply for the job. Although she was only 15 years old, the Human Resources Department still accepted her.
Ruan Meng stroked her chestnut hair and said, "You should take good rest and not get too tired. You can go to the stadium to exercise or watch a movie."
"Thank you..." Maggie thanked him quickly.
In fact, Ruan Meng asked her to rest more and play more, not because she was intentionally teaching the girl bad things, but because there was no need for her to study so hard.
The internal education of Zhiren Company now includes nursery for children aged 0 to 3 years old, kindergarten for children aged 3 to 6 years old, elementary school for children aged 6 to 12 years old, junior high school for children aged 12 to 15 years old, and high school for children aged 15 to 18 years old.
After that, you can choose a major based on your interests and hobbies, as well as your usual grades in various subjects, and then go to college.
Homo sapiens do not need to take the college entrance examination, because in June of the year when they turn 18, these high school students can have a biochip implanted, and by then knowledge will not be a problem at all.
Therefore, in the 12 years of education before adolescence, the educational system of Homo sapiens mainly focuses on happiness education, interest education, and ideological education, and does not focus on the score-only model of exam-oriented education.
Once the biochip is implanted, one will be able to learn anything very quickly and the whole person will be reborn.
Therefore, the university of Homo sapiens is the place where professional knowledge is truly taught.
Maggie is only 15 years old now, which is right in the middle school stage. There is no need for her to learn too much professional knowledge. The most important thing is to have fun happily.
Ruan Meng smiled and said, "I have good news for you. The school in Hongku Port will be ready for use in a few days. Then you can go to school with your peers."
"..." Maggie was silent for a while: "But I don't have any money."
Ruan Meng rubbed her hair again: "Don't worry! It's free compulsory education, and it also provides food and accommodation. You should live happily in the future."
"Really..." Maggie's face flushed with excitement.
