Expedition to Europe

In the 1920s, the service industry was just a vague concept, and no systematic theory had been formed.

For a country, heavy industry is the foundation for national development, light industry is a supplement to the economy, and the service industry - what is that?

It can be said that apart from Qin Zhiyuan, few people in the world can see the prospects of the service industry.

Like most people, Pierre does not understand what the prospects of a humble small workshop like a "fast food restaurant" will be if it grows rapidly.

Four stores earned 130,000 francs a week. If there were 100 stores, the annual profit would be calculated in billions.

This is still under the condition of limited products. Julie is organizing people to improve other small foods, such as hamburgers, French fries, pizza, etc. As the products gradually become richer, the profits of "KFC" will be further increased. No wonder Qin Zhiyuan said that Rockefeller will be jealous in the future.

How can he not be jealous?

At present, in the eyes of the Rockefeller family, "KFC" is just an ancillary product of a gas station, but if the profit generated by this "ancillary product" exceeds the gas station itself, then Rockefeller will definitely regret it.

With the help of the Rockefeller family, the fast food restaurants in the United States are advancing very fast. By mid-February, the first batch of fast food restaurants will open for business, and then it will be a snowball-like rapid expansion.

With the demonstration of the stores, Rockefeller will not be needed next. Those investors who are racking their brains to find investment directions will squeeze through the threshold of KFC.

Julie doesn't care much about KFC's layout in the United States. Julie is ambitiously preparing to expand in Europe. In fact, Europe is the current center of the world. Although wealth is shifting to America, the direction of the transfer has been diverted because of the emergence of Lan Fang. Europe still seems to be the most important now. Julie will definitely not let go of the European market.

Julie is indeed generous. With the successful experience of Corsica, Julie is ready to open 50 branches in major European cities at the same time.

International metropolises such as London and Paris are definitely the top priority, but secondary cities such as Madrid, Rome, and Amsterdam cannot be ignored, especially cities in Spain and the Netherlands, which Julie attaches great importance to. After all, these countries did not participate in the world war, or their participation was not enough. The degree of damage to the country caused by the war was not as great as that of Britain and France, and people still have more purchasing power.

Italian cities are more interesting. Although Lan Fang is now on bad terms with Italy, this does not affect the expansion of a French-backed company in Italy. Italians are still very receptive to food, at least much better than the Germans who only eat potatoes. Qin Zhiyuan is looking forward to the expressions of Italians when they find out that "KFC" sells pizza. They should be more entangled. On the one hand, they are proud, and on the other hand, they are probably envious and jealous, just like the feeling of Chinese people when they see Americans filming "Kung Fu Panda".

Qin Zhiyuan doesn't care about Julie's business expansion. Qin Zhiyuan's mind is currently on Sardinia.

When real estate developers in the 21st century recommend properties, they always come up with a few model houses to show off. Qin Zhiyuan now wants to build Sardinia into Lan Fang's "model house" to prove to the world whether Lan Fang has brought war or a happy life to the Sardinians.

On the other hand, Sardinia is Lan Fang's only legitimate territory in Europe, and Lan Fang also needs to build Sardinia into a bridgehead as a springboard for Lan Fang to expand its influence in Europe.

Since there is a demand in this regard, we must strive for excellence in our work.

Lan Fang still has many talents in urban construction. Qin Zhiyuan only issued a handwritten order, and various manpower and materials continued to gather in Sardinia. The first to arrive were a group of people from the Design and Planning Institute. This group of people is also called "urban magicians", of course, not the kind of "magicians" in road shows.

"The construction of Sardinia should be divided into three stages, first of all, infrastructure construction, then the improvement of supporting facilities, and finally the improvement of the overall image-" Lei Jingfu, director of the Design and Planning Institute, said in the conference hall of the Presidential Palace.

The standard for participants is a bit high. Qin Zhiyuan and Joshua Jody will definitely be there. Chen Kangjian also flew from faraway Djibouti to attend, giving Lei Jingfu enough face.

Lei Jingfu had been in Jerusalem before. The reconstruction of Jerusalem has not been completed yet. Although the construction of urban roads in residential areas has been completed, Jerusalem has high-end demand for religious buildings. It is not easy to build these magnificent churches and mosques. For example, the church covering an area of ​​350 acres has a construction period calculated in "ten years". Just one church will be completed in thirty years. If you want to complete all of them, it will probably be by the end of this century.

This is not a problem for Catholicism. Their history is calculated in "thousands of years". Waiting for a few decades is really not a big deal.

Qin Zhiyuan can't wait that long. Qin Zhiyuan wants to build Sardinia into Lan Fang's business card within five years. He must come up with a "Sardinia speed" or "Lan Fang speed" to live up to Qin Zhiyuan's fanfare.

"The first aspect of infrastructure construction includes railways and roads around the island, expansion of ports and construction of supporting facilities, basic urban construction and supporting power plants, etc. -" Lei Jingfu now has enough experience to speak. time to replace the display picture on the display board with A full map of Sardinia, with a detailed explanation of the picture: "According to His Majesty's request, Sardinia will build three relatively large cities, one is Torres in the north, one is Oristano in the center, and the last one is Cagliari in the south, these three cities have different functions. At the same time, Cagliari will be the most important city. This will be the transfer station for our Lanfang products in Europe. In the future, all Lanfang products will be gathered in Cagliari and then dispersed to all parts of Europe. . As for La Maddalena, it will be a pure military Our military base, our fleet and airport will be here. The geographical location here is very advantageous. It is located in the center of the Mediterranean. It is very convenient no matter which direction you want to go. It is expected that the entire construction process will last for fifteen years, of which the first phase The project should be completed within five years.”

When Lei Jingfu said this, he expressed sincerely to Chen Kangjian and Joshua Jody: "Of course, if we want to complete it on time, we need your strong help. Since we are starting work in many places at the same time, we estimate that we will need around 500,000 workers." , I learned about the situation before the meeting. The population of Sardinia is now on a downward trend, and there are not as many people moving in as there are people moving in. How to solve the human resources problem is a big problem. "

Lanfang's human resources are the richest in the world, but no matter how abundant the human resources are, they cannot withstand Qin Zhiyuan's crazy expansion. Now there is finally a gap in Lanfang's human resources. This is a problem that no one has thought of.

Chen Kangjian is a soldier and Joshua Jody is an agent. Let Chen Kangjian go to fight and Joshua Jody do some damage. These two are very handy. When it comes to the allocation of human resources, they are blind. When I heard Regarding Lei Jingfu's question, both of them looked at Qin Zhiyuan.

It is the consensus of Lanfang's senior management to approach His Majesty if you have any questions.

"No one - this is indeed a problem." Qin Zhiyuan was also a little worried.

Like other countries around the world, Lanfang is also actively introducing people. Needless to say, Chinese people have continued to immigrate from the Republic of China. Even the Japanese and Persian Qin Zhiyuan are not refusing now. They just want to obtain more manpower as quickly as possible. resource.

Just like living space, human resources also need to be competed for, and the whole world agrees on this.

"How about hiring? Let's go to North Africa or the Middle East to hire locals. They don't have high requirements for life, as long as they don't starve to death." Chen Kangjian has an idea, and it seems that Djibouti is doing a good job.

"Forget about your 'employment'." Qin Zhiyuan directly exposed Chen Kangjian's background without giving any face.

What Chen Kangjian called "employment" was actually slave-owning. Not only did he buy slaves from slave traders, Chen Kangjian also organized a "slave hunting team" himself.

This sounds a bit cruel, but the "slave trade" has not completely disappeared even in the 21st century. In this era, it is simply a matter of course.

In fact, it sounds pretty good. At least at Qin Zhiyuan's request, Chen Kangjian had no intention of abusing those "slaves". Those "slaves" were even paid for their work, which was almost the same as hired workers, although the salary was a bit lower. But there is a fundamental difference from "slave".

Chen Kangjian can be shameless, but Qin Zhiyuan cannot. Djibouti, a small place with bigger pigeon eggs, is located in North Africa and is still far away from Europe. Sardinia is in the center of the Mediterranean and is part of Europe. If Qin Zhiyuan is in Sardinia If the island uses slaves, then even if Qin Zhiyuan builds Sardinia into a prosperous place like London and Paris, it will not become Lanfang's business card, but Lanfang's scandal.

"It's true -" Chen Kangjian opened his eyes and cried out. He couldn't be more innocent: "Egypt now has a labor export bureau. We can hire people from Egypt. The price is very cheap. The salary is only one-third of our Lanfang workers." One, they don’t even need money, they just give them things, such as cans, wash basins, clothes, etc. They give them what they want. The Western Province now hires tens of thousands of people from Egypt.”

"Labor Export Bureau? What is this?" Qin Zhiyuan was a little curious.

After Chen Kangjian's explanation, Qin Zhiyuan understood what was going on.

After Yang Deshan ascended the throne in Egypt, he carried out a "secular" transformation of Egypt. First of all, he changed the name of the country "Egypt-Jordan" to purely "Egypt". This, of course, aroused opposition from some Jordanians, and Yang Deshan was not polite. As long as someone dared to rebel, Yang Deshan would directly suppress them, leaving no room for negotiation.

When there is a war, there will be prisoners. There are also many idle people in Egypt. Many Egyptians just eat and wait to die. Considering the actual situation, Yang Deshan set up such a labor export bureau to find jobs for the citizens and at the same time, it can also increase their income. government revenue.

It's really a good thing that kills two birds with one stone.
