Chapter 41: , Bring in labor

　　 Seeing Ferdinand's anger, Lauren Holman said: "Dear Lord, I can answer you this question!"
　　 "Oh, then Mr. Lauren will give me a reason!" Ferdinand said irritably
　　 Lauren Holman didn’t care about Ferdinand’s attitude, and calmly said:
Your Excellency, the railway project has been carried out so far. In fact, we have done a lot of work beyond the railway itself!

　　 "Oh!" Ferdinand let out a surprised cry
Lauren Holman continued:
In fact, while building the railway, we must also build the road first. Of course, the difficulty of construction was underestimated due to the underestimation of the geographical conditions at the time! These conditions add up to cause The current labor gap!"
Ferdinand understood, his face became normal, and he calmly said: "I understand. Mr. Lauren meant that in addition to the railway project, we also added a supporting road network. Isn't it? The budget of 10 million pounds will also be greatly increased?"
　　 Lauren Holman said simply: "Yes, your Excellency! It is estimated that it will increase by about 50%. Of course, the cost can be lower if only temporary roads are built, but this is not worthwhile."
When Ferdinand learned of the situation, the rain turned clear and said: "Well, yes, I know about this. Thank you, Mr. Lauren, the Bulgarian people will not forget your hard work! The government will solve this problem as soon as possible. You can safely construct!"
"Okay, Your Excellency, this is what I should do. Since there is nothing for me here, and I still have work on the construction site to finish, I just retire." It seems that I can see it, Ferdinand is next. Not suitable for him to participate, Lauren Holman chose to leave.
　　 Watching the three of Lauren Holman leave, Ferdinand turned his gaze to Chekov and Constantine and asked: "What do you think?"
　　 Chekov shook his head, saying no.
　　 Constantine thought for a while and said, "Why don't we buy black slaves! Although there are some moral problems, as long as we can ensure the smooth progress of the railway project, it is worth it!"
　　 Ferdinand rolled his eyes, and said to his heart: It's a totally bad idea. What age are you buying slaves? Is this the ethnic problem of Bulgaria too simple? Just by looking at the skin color, you will know that there will be no way to assimilate in a hundred years.
　　 also seemed to have noticed something wrong, Constantine said in a whisper, "Oh, this doesn't seem to work, the price of black slaves is too high!"
　　 Ferdinand almost laughed, you know the money when you work together!
After a while, Ferdinand cleared his mind and said: "Since we have a shortage of labor in Bulgaria, we should invest in foreign countries! We can introduce it to our neighbors. If it is not enough, we can go to the world's most populous country to find it! But we must ensure Two principles: the first nationalists cannot ask for it, and the second fanatical religiousism cannot ask for it!"
　　 Both Chekov and Constantine reacted. Now Bulgarian factories have sprung up, and the government is investing heavily in infrastructure construction. Naturally, there is a shortage of labor in the country, and even the wages of workers have increased a lot.
　　 But other countries have it. The Balkan countries have not many populations, and the idle labor force is estimated to be not much, but there are so many other parts of the world.
　　 The Manqing that is far away does not say too far, except Ferdinand estimated that few people would think that there are the best workers there.
　　In Eastern Europe, the labor force in Russia and Austria-Hungary is greatly rich. Hundreds of thousands of people are lost every year, and immigrants go to the Americas. As long as half of them can come to Bulgaria, it is enough.
　　 At this time, Ferdinand again thought of a way to increase the population, and said happily: "Yes, Chekov, your Ministry of Education is busy again, and we still need a group of language teachers."
　　 "For migrant workers, the basic wages are set a little bit higher than that of domestic workers. If you learn Bulgarian, you can add a part, and if you are willing to join Bulgaria, it will be the same as that of domestic workers."
　　 Chekov asked wonderingly: "Your Excellency, this is not an increase in expenses, and if the following projects are completed, if they repent and leave Bulgaria again, aren't we busy?"
　　 Constantine also had the same expression, obviously not understanding Ferdinand’s suggestion.
　　Ferdinand said with a smile: "I didn't plan to let them all stay. Someone will definitely leave. But the current economic situation in Bulgaria is not as good as Western Europe, but it is better than our neighbors!"
　　 "Moreover, our construction can be completed in a short period of time. At least in the next ten years, we will face a shortage of labor. If they stay in Bulgaria for a few years, many people will choose to stay!"
　　 Constantine suddenly remembered something, and looked at Ferdinand in surprise and said: "Your Excellency, are you planning to use economic means to deal with ethnic issues?"
Seeing Constantine saw it, Ferdinand did not deny it either. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com smiled and said, "Yes, this is just an experiment. It is good if it succeeds, but it doesn't matter if it fails, it is nothing more than an addition. Expenses. As long as one-tenth of the people stays, we are not at a loss!"
　　 A sentence above, a broken leg underneath. Ferdinand gave a big strategy, even if it's over, he will continue to discuss life with the girls.
　　 But the introduction of labor is definitely not as simple as imagined, and the number is still so large. Even in that era, the governments of various countries did not strictly monitor the private sector and did not need to apply for visas.
　　 It only takes tens of thousands of people to go to a foreign country, and it takes a lot of energy. There is also a need for careful organization and arrangement of food, clothing, housing and transportation.
　　 Constantine took over the task, and the government started to revolve around the matter. It was so busy that many people's vacations were cancelled.
　　 Even the Ministry of Education, which has always been relatively idle, is now starting to move around looking for teachers. The level of education is no longer required, as long as you have a few more languages. Even so, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack. Whether you can make up enough depends on luck.
　　 Minister Metiev, I am in a bad mood now. Since Ferdinand decided to introduce labor, the government organized to recruit people first, and then unscrupulous capitalists also joined in. That's all tricks and tricks, cheating, kidnapping and deceiving are everywhere.
　　Australia-Hungary and Russia have not felt it yet, the neighbors around them have suffered first. Serbia, Montenegro, Romania and Ottoman, the embassy in Bulgaria, all sent people to protest.
　　 Fortunately, in this era, everyone doesn't care about the life and death of the poor. Otherwise, the diplomatic pressure alone will be enough for Ferdinand's headache.
　　As the party who was in the wrong, Minister Metzhev had to apologize and give the red envelope from the University of Foreign Affairs. After a lot of effort, it was finally settled, and now something happened again.
