There was chaos and confusion on the dock.
Although someone shouted loudly to maintain order, except for the children, everyone else either cut in line or crowded together, as if everyone wanted to get to the front.
The shouts of men, the cries of women and the crying of children made the dock look like a vegetable market.
The chaotic scene made Zhu Xianhai frown and he gave orders to Sun Hu.
"Sun Hu."
"have!"
"The queue is not in order, send someone over to teach them how to line up!"
"yes!"
Sun Hu shouted immediately after receiving the order.
"Chen Erwei, lead the people to follow me! Teach them to follow some rules."
The crowded pier was in chaos. Li Lin, who was in the crowd, tried to squeeze forward like everyone else.
"Hurry forward, forward..."
As soon as the words fell, a cry of pain was heard from the other side.
"Line up, line up..."
Sun Hu, holding a wooden stick, led a team of guards. When they saw people not queuing according to the rules, they would beat them with the sticks.
It was very painful when the batons as thick as a child's arm hit people, but it only took a moment for the noisy pier to become quiet. Under the punishment of the batons, they finally lined up obediently and registered in an orderly manner.
"Why do you want to do this?"
Elizabeth was puzzled.
"order!"
Zhu Xianhai said.
"When there are more than 10,000 people, there will be chaos. In the past, Nanhua was stable because there were few people, so there was no problem with paternalistic management. But that won't work in the future. The more people there are, the more likely it is that there will be chaos. We don't have any laws here right now, so we can only control them through discipline..."
After a pause, Zhu Xianhai said.
"Military law, let's use military law for now, use discipline to restrain them!"
Staring at these new immigrants, Zhu Xianhai was thinking secretly in his heart.
It's almost time to introduce laws. Without legal constraints and a sound legal system, Nanhua is just a residential village and has no future.
Law means order and system.
Of course, it also symbolizes the regime’s violent apparatus!
All things are difficult at the beginning. Let’s use military law to control these people first.
Why military law must be used? Of course, it is because he does not have the time or energy to make mistakes again.
So after much deliberation, Zhu Xianhai decided to learn from the experience of later generations and implement paramilitary management in Nanhua.
In fact, Zhu Xianhai had never studied management. Even the management knowledge given by the system still required further practice, so he simply applied the military approach to the management of Nanhua.
How effective is this trick?
Zhu Xianhai was not sure, but at least he could ensure the normal and effective operation of Nanhua.
Just look at Foxconn in later generations and you will know that quasi-military management is still necessary for labor-intensive industries.
Foxconn's production area has hundreds of thousands of workers. Since they can use quasi-military management to manage such a large area, this management method must have its merits. Moreover, this management model can also bring higher production efficiency!
From now on, Nanhua will be just a big military camp!
Let’s give them some military training first!
On May 29, 1861, the arrival of new immigrants made the population of Nanhua exceed 30,000 for the first time!
For Nanhua, the population almost expanded tenfold in just one day!
If it weren't for the simulator, Zhu Xianhai would never have imagined that Li Fugui would bring so many immigrants.
More than 28,000 people!
And even this is just the first batch.
In the future, more and more immigrants will come to Nanhua.
According to Zhu Xianhai's plan, all immigrants will be trained for three months after arriving in Nanhua, just like new soldiers, living in a group, training and working in a group for three months. Because of this, these second-generation immigrants who have just arrived in Nanhua have been constantly shocked since they set foot on this land.
After leaving Nanhua, there are endless wheat fields. On the dirt road in the field, which is half a person's height, horse-drawn carriages are driving slowly towards the morning sun. Most of the people sitting in the carriages are staring blankly at the surrounding fields.
"Oh, it's so big..."
Standing on the carriage and looking at the endless wheat fields, Li Lin, Liu San and others were all dumbfounded. They stood on the carriage like fools, looking at the golden wheat fields.
"Oh my God, why can't I see the end of ?"
The boundless land was all golden. Such endless fields were undoubtedly shocking to them who were used to the small paddy fields in Zhejiang.
"This land must be at least tens of thousands of acres!"
"Tens of thousands of acres. In half a year, we have reclaimed a total of 100,000 acres of land..."
Li Laoliu said proudly while driving the horse-drawn carriage.
"Let me tell you, when we came here, the ground was covered with grass, half a person deep. We had to burn the weeds first, then drive the horses and use the iron plow to open the land..."
In fact, it is extremely simple to reclaim land in the Pampas. There are no forests or even shrubs here. Sometimes you don't even need to burn the land. You can just plow the land and sow seeds. As for burning the land, it is just to burn the grass seeds.
"Half a year, 100,000 acres, my God! Uncle Li, you guys will be exhausted to death!"
"Tired ass, you think I'm pulling people with my hands."
Li Laoliu pointed at the equipment on the carriage and said.
"We use this double-share, double-wheeled plow to cultivate the land. Two people and two horses use one plow. We can cultivate at least ten or twenty acres a day without any problem. It's not tiring at all. Today you will first learn how to drive the horses to use the plow. This is a technical job, but you must all learn it. We in Nanhua cultivate the land with horses and various machines. Let me tell you, when we get to the reclamation area, there will be another new thing..."
Just as Li Laoliu was speaking, Li Lin suddenly said in surprise.
"Uncle Li, what is that?"
In the wheat field, a horse was dragging something that looked a bit strange, and a person was sitting on it. As the horse dragged the thing, several "knives" on one side kept spinning. As the "knives" turned, fields of wheat fell down.
“The harvester… is also pulled by horses .”
"Harvester?"
Li Lin looked at the harvester in amazement, watching how easily it cut down large tracts of wheat while moving. Such a machine could do the work of at least dozens of people!
"Hey, can we use machines to harvest crops?"
"You didn't expect it, did you? Let me tell you, there are many things you can't imagine in our Nanhua Sea..."
Li Laoliu raised his whip with pride.
"When we get to the reclamation area, I'll let you guys open your eyes..."
Half an hour later, before they even got off the carriage, they saw a "monster" spewing black smoke slowly passing through the fields. They almost fell off the carriage amid the deafening whistle...
