Chapter 4183: interdependent

Scipio was a bold person. Without the support of sufficient information, he even dared to attack. For this point, Li Fu admired more and thought that the other party was too crazy. When they were so crazy that many things required them to ponder such things in detail, he had already begun to plan and act frantically. In this regard, Li Fu does not give any formal evaluation.

Carthage City, the lease area centered on South Korea began to develop rapidly, but there is a huge dark area in the middle of the lease area. This area is the lease area of ​​Zhao Guo, because there is no cooperation from the Carthaginians and a large amount of labor. It can only be carried out by the escaped slaves. The people of Zhao Guoren need to build a wharf, bank, hospital and government management office building, as well as various commercial facilities and so on. All these need to be re-established planning, but attracting investment will still be relatively slow, because there is no one here, only Zhao people come here with a patriotic heart to build here, a large area of ​​land is still free, of course. Some people also buy a piece of land as an investment in their leisure time. But even so, there is still a large amount of unused land, which is a huge waste from the perspective of the lease area.

However, some people soon began to have their own purpose of using such waste. For example, some escaped slaves did not have a place to live, and the local rents rose rapidly. Most of them did the lowest-level jobs. For a long time, they were not paid to pay the rent. Not only that, but the rental area The prices of goods are more expensive than those in the general area, and most of the money they earn is used to maintain their basic living expenses. There is simply not much rent to do such other things. It can be said that under such circumstances, letting them do such things obviously makes it difficult for them to proceed. This situation is for them. It is still relatively unacceptable. There is no way, they won’t have much remuneration. In the rental area, more labor force appears. Some people keep the price down to a very low level in order to get a job, and some areas are controlled by gangs and rely on them. It is impossible for the Aiji police to manage the security situation. Many Aiji police will cooperate with the gangs, and give a large number of public security conditions to the gang for management. In this way, it is the Aiji police management in name. In fact, it is those gangsters who manage, and they will uniformly pump water for the work in their protected areas. Some are less, but most of them are more. They are called the private tax bureau in the lease area. Because the rented area levies taxes on them relatively small, but these gangs generally exceed the tax bureau's more than three times. But the effect is still there, that is, there are a lot less criminal cases, but petty thefts still happen frequently, and this is the situation.

Those who come here to betray their coolies. It is difficult for them to do this.

But they have their own living requirements, so shanty towns began to appear here, that is to say, they live here as they feel, no one cares about them anyway, they also have a home of their own. Such slums appeared in Zhao Guo's lease area. Most of them are escaped slaves. Came here just to have a place to settle down.

The Korean rental area is located in an edge tavern near the Zhao Guoren rental area. This type of tavern is opened by the Koreans. It mainly sells some local Korean wines. Some people who have been away for a long time drink and taste the hometown wine. The side dishes are also very good, which is an acceptable result for them.

"The Carthage government kept protesting. They hope to release all the more escaped slaves unconditionally. Is this possible?" Yang Fang said with a smile. Then I took a sip of hometown wine, which is still acceptable to them. After all, people like them have been away for a long time. If they go home, it may take three months, sometimes longer. Of course. It might be faster if you walk non-stop. In this case, their situation will become even more advantageous.

"This is obviously impossible." Mara is also familiar with Korean local snacks. He can still accept, here he, he can eat all kinds of dishes. For example, the immature Indian food is ugly, but it is acceptable, but it is very uncomfortable for the stomach. He felt that he would smell a **** on his body. There are also Yueren dishes, most of which are rice, and there are also a variety of indescribable bugs. In short, you need to have a good appetite and be able to eat everything. Koreans have many colonies, and they can have many, many, various dishes that you can't even think of. Carthage rental area, this is Marathi's favorite place to come. There is a free atmosphere here, and there are all kinds of dishes. With money, you can eat everything. The salary given to him by the Carthage government is simply not enough to support his random expenses. The only way is for him to do some illegal business, which is the best way to maintain his stomach.

Regarding the matter of the escaped slave, Mara also felt very helpless. The largest trade in Carthage before was the slave trade, because the number of slaves needed everywhere is still extremely large, but after the establishment of the lease area, because the Central Plains countries have abolished their slaves, nevertheless, the dark slave trade began to It was only carried out in some shady places, but in name, the Central Plains countries abolished slaves. In other words, slaves will not trade. In addition, the Carthage government was unable to take some necessary measures against the leased area, such as extradition, arrest, etc., none of these things. This gives them a great opportunity. They can do things like this, and even they can do everything well. In this regard, what they can care about, obviously they can’t do it. This is a little bit, therefore, under such circumstances, Carthage has no way to deal with the slaves who fled to Korea. Their only way is to watch or make a useless protest. But these are of no use at all. Because many places don't care about such things.

In this way, a large number of slaves were encouraged to escape in disguise. The blacks from the south, as well as the prisoners of war slaves from other tribes, would escape in various ways. There are also failures to escape, and the punishment for failure is extremely cruel, and they will be crucified to death. Then they died from dehydration in the sun. The whole process was extremely slow and cruel. Day by day, many slaves watched their former companions die like this, and then they turned into corpses. Each corpse seemed to indicate that the slave escape would become What kind of situation. But even so, there are still a large number of slaves escaping. They are not afraid of this. What they are afraid of is losing their freedom and everything here. They are afraid of doing nothing, which will make them numb. The leased area is all their hope for escape and victory. Such news continues to spread. After opening, the number of slaves fleeing increased and the scale became larger and larger. Obviously, the situation seems to be going out of control. Under such circumstances, many things can no longer be dealt with. They must find a way to solve this problem, otherwise, everything will make their situation uncontrollable.

"Our government hopes to be able to control such a situation, but it is obviously impossible. Many slaves who fled have already caused great losses to our economy. It will be difficult to carry on the manor without labor. The escaped slaves cannot be replenished in time. Under such circumstances, it is difficult for them to accomplish such things. Therefore, this situation becomes more and more unfavorable." Mara said.

"I know this situation, but the question is, how do we solve such a thing. Instead of focusing on going back to the past." Yang Fang thought for a while and said. He can only express sympathy for the situation encountered by the Carthage government. In many cases, some behaviors in the South Korean leased areas have affected some of the economic characteristics of the Carthaginians. For example, some of their economic conditions have become very serious. Change, slave escape is such a little bit. Under such conditions, many times, great changes will be made to them. As a result, the situation will become extremely unfavorable.

"What do you mean?" Mara said with a slow political reaction.

"I mean, why don't you reform and adapt to the current situation, instead of making the situation so unfavorable? At this point, I don't think your Senate has any long-term plans. In this way Under one of the conditions, you are completely incomprehensible." Yang Fang said.

For the Carthage Senate. Korean newspapers jokingly call them nursing homes because they are old antiques that will not be civilized. They follow the old ways and will not carry out reforms at all. Many conditions in Carthage have changed, but they still seem to want to guard their past things. Under such circumstances, they cannot change such a situation. In other words, many, many things cannot be changed.

"They are unlikely to do such a thing." Mara said, shaking his head.

"Then we have no good way to help them. This kind of thing can only be done by themselves. Otherwise, no one can help them. I think you and I know this. The Carthaginians must Help yourself, no one will help them solve such a thing.” Yang Fang said. Obviously, the Carthaginian Senate's idea of ​​going back to the past is extremely unrealistic. No matter what they want to work hard, it is impossible to accomplish such a thing. This situation will only make their situation worse. It's unfavorable.

South Korea, Xinzheng. Supreme Command.

"It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous. The old antiques in the nursing home, since let us send all the slaves back. This is a joke. I really don't know why I took such a report and gave it to me." Han Shu smiled and looked at the report in his hand. .

"My lord, our colony in Carthage currently needs a lot of labor. These labors are what we need most. We should note that these labors will become more and more in the future. We should be in the colony, and In the leased area, build more and more factories to meet such a demand. After all, long-distance transportation is not good for us to deal with the development of the situation and some conditions. The local construction is still relatively complete. Yes, they can greatly help us solve this problem, which is a very good thing for us." Zhang Liang did not pay attention to whether the living conditions of the Carthaginians were feasible, or that, Does their idea work? In short, many things will become difficult to combine. Under such conditions, many things will become difficult to adapt. Under such conditions, this kind of thing will make it difficult for them to work. of.

The change is here. This requires them to make a lot of achievements to achieve this.

"Yeah. That's right. We need some factories to solve some market problems there. I heard that the development of the lease area is very good, and there will be some changes in demand. Under such circumstances, we naturally want to support them in doing so. This is extremely advantageous to us. Since it is advantageous, we will support them to do so, otherwise it will make our situation extremely inconvenient." Han Shu said.

factory. When the goods are exported to a certain stage, they need to be replaced by capital exports. They need to build a large number of local factories to meet some local needs. This kind of demand is. They can accomplish such a situation in other ways. This is an extremely advantageous situation for them. In this situation, many things will put them in an advantageous situation.

Prices will become lower, and they will hit more and more local areas that are not in line with production. This will make their situation more favorable.

Occupy more market, occupy more market share, this will be different. Obviously Zhang Liang's suggestion saw this.

"Yes, Majesty, we are already doing this. If we do well, we will further promote it. In this way, we can promote this method in more rental areas. For example, Persia, and more. Many areas." Zhang Liang said.

"Yes, your idea is very constructive, pay attention to this point and the way of promotion." Han Shu said.
