Zhou Chaowu arranged all the relevant matters of the General School, and only two months later, the campus was completed and opened.
Industrial.
Under the orders of Zhou Chaowu, Du Yuesheng found many foreign businessmen and lured them to invest in factories in China on a large scale with generous land prices and convenient conditions.
Xiao Baiying and Zhu Baosan also founded many industries in the Chinese community.
The only remaining problem for Zhou Chaowu was to expand the army.
He currently has only one division and a mixed regiment.
That's not enough for his ambitions or his next steps!
Although Shanghai has a prosperous economy, only the Chinese community is completely in control.
Land is limited
, and the financial revenue that can be obtained is also limited.
Counting public property, customs duties, salt taxes, and other taxes, the annual fiscal revenue is only 30 million oceans.
Planing urban construction, or other official needs.
I'm afraid I can only have a surplus of about 20 million oceans.
After all, most of the economy is in the concession.
As for a
regular full-fledged division, the daily military expenditure for a year, excluding the purchase of equipment, and not counting the military expenditure consumed in the war, is about 4 million oceans.
And the treatment of the Zhou Chaowu troops is much better, I am afraid that the consumption will be 5 million oceans.
The finances of Shanghai as a whole only allowed him to expand by three more divisions.
And this, there is still some distance from what Zhou Chaowu wants!
His next plan is to take another province and build his own military-industrial line.
Four divisions are enough to take down a province, but they are very capable of facing a complicated situation in the future, and it is difficult to keep it.
What's more, there must be troops left behind in Shanghai.
His goal was to be able to expand to seven divisions plus a separate artillery brigade.
Among them, the 1st Mixed
Division, which was expanded from the existing 1st Mixed Regiment, has an establishment of 20,000 people, and the headquarters must be elite, and the equipment configuration must also be the most sophisticated!
It can be regarded as the ace master that Zhou Chaowu is preparing to build.
The remaining three infantry divisions, with an establishment of 12,000 men, can be configured according to German weapons.
A reinforced artillery brigade with an establishment of 5,000 men and 500 artillery pieces of various types.
An armored division with 10,000 men and 300 tanks, which also includes motorized units instead of cavalry.
An air force division with an establishment of 2000 people and a hundred fighters.
A naval division with an establishment of 8,000 people and more than ten warships.
An army of about 80,000 people.
It is calculated according to the per capita annual consumption of 400 oceans.
The annual military expenditure is as high as more than 32 million!
In other words, Zhou Chaowu needed to purchase all military supplies.
I have to put 12 million oceans upside down every year!
The assets of the Zhou family
are known as rich as the country, and the entire southern big city has the Zhou family's money and salt villages, and the annual income is only more than 8 million oceans.
The accumulation of several generations has led to nearly 100 million ocean assets.
Even if the income of the Zhou family is included, this account is still a headache for Zhou Chaowu.
He began to understand that behind these warlords of the Republic of China were either consortia or foreign forces, and no matter how bad it was, opium was smuggled away.
Like today's Republic of China, wealth is mainly concentrated in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai, Guangdong, Yanjing, and the three eastern provinces.
If you want to be bald and arrogant, you can only start to make a fortune by relying on the support of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang consortiums behind you.
It can't be helped, the cost of fighting a war is too huge!
In fact, in essence, he can be regarded as a consortium, such as the Zhou family, his mother's Xiao family, or his father-in-law's Zhu family, all of whom can be regarded as rich people.
And because he has a kryptonite system, the way he develops the army is a little more violent!
Zhou Chaowu now has about 22 million oceans of wealth left.
It is still no problem to insist on paying out of your own pocket and building the army first.
But it's not a long-term solution.
And he didn't want to use Xiao Baiying's money all the time.
After thinking about it for a long time, Zhou Chaowu thought of a way to make a fortune quickly!
That's war money!
How did the United States rise so quickly to become the world's largest power?
It was because he amassed a lot of war money in both world wars!
This road, Zhou Chaowu may not be able to walk!
You must know that in the European battlefield at this time, the First World War was still in full swing.
The Central Powers, led by Germany and Austria-Hungary, fought hard against the great powers such as Britain, France, and the United States!
The situation was critical, and for another year in history the Allies ended in defeat and were forced to sign numerous humiliating terms.
It also laid the groundwork for the Second World War!
At this time, Zhou Chaowu would be able to provide the German-Austrian coalition with weapons with superior performance.
Even if the lion opens his mouth, they will accept it!
Zhou Chaowu's goal was placed on the golden treasure chest of the krypton gold system!
Treasure Chest Description: (Gold member unlocks, the price is 1 million oceans, the probability of rare items is increased to 15%, and you can open construction drawings in various fields).
Obviously, the
Golden Treasure Chest can be used to produce military drawings, and it is not limited by the time limit!
If he can prescribe suitable design drawings, Zhou Chaowu will be able to make a wave of war fortune ruthlessly!
His current consumption in the system is only about 5,542,000 oceans, and he is still nearly 5 million short of upgrading to a gold member.
"System, buy me two more armaments for the full number of German armorers!".
Zhou Chaowu will have to spend this money sooner or later, and he expects that the armament of the three conventional infantry divisions he will build will basically not change!
"Successful purchase! A total of 5.6 million oceans after the silver member discount!!".
"Congratulations on spending more than 10 million oceans in the dormitory!
"Reward a Golden Chest!".
"Is it on now?".
PS: The ban has finally been lifted!
