Over the years, Li Siya has been the brain and she is the arm, making great changes on the sea and reaping rich rewards, with a considerable surplus every year. ◎◎However, for future considerations, I have to store more. Part of Li Huamei's profits from each overseas trip was paid into Li Siya's account at a Jewish bank in Macau, and part was given directly to the lady.
Li Siya gave her 5% of the net profit from each voyage. According to the standards of the time, Li Siya's favor to her was already remarkable: in the final analysis, she, Li Chun, was just Li Siya's domestic slave. Running around the house to make money is your duty - if the master is willing to reward you with some extra money, it would be great, and if you return the dividends, it would be a great grace.
Although there is this dividend, apart from carrying part of the money with me, most of the money is still placed in a bank in Macau - also under the custody of Sister Nanny. Li Huamei originally didn't care much about money. She always felt that if a lady took care of the money, she would not suffer any loss if she followed her.
However, her mentality has undergone subtle changes recently: in the past, she always felt that she and Sister Nanny were a family, regardless of each other. But as I grew older, especially when I secretly felt that my years were passing away, I was shocked to realize that I had nothing. Even the Hangzhou number was my sister's property.
You have to plan a little bit for yourself. The young lady will never do this business in Macau for the rest of her life. What will I do when the lady leaves? Continue to follow her?
Li Chun has been troubled by such problems recently. She even thought about taking advantage of this marriage to fake it and completely get rid of Sister Nanny's control. In the past, she was surrounded by people from the Li family, and the boat also belonged to the Li family. This time the blind Danes sent a lot of money and sailors.
The income from the sale of the trophies robbed from the ship and the sale of the ship, excluding the expenses and expenses along the way, totaled about more than twelve thousand pesos. Profits from transporting goods for Australians are not included - this does not count as income from piracy operations.
According to the rules, 50% of the loot obtained from robbing the Griffin is divided between the captain and 20% of the leader. The remainder was divided equally among the sailors. She received six thousand pesos for herself.
In addition to six thousand pesos, she also received Captain Wishay's personal belongings from the captain's cabin of the Griffin: including a bag of gold coins and a small bag filled with Ceylon rubies, emeralds, and crystals. Miss Chun, who has always prided herself on being aboveboard, put the things in her pocket without hesitation this time.
With this capital, it is not difficult to get a boat - although every time I think of this, I curse myself for being heartless and unrighteous, but this idea becomes more and more stubborn...
No matter what happens in the future, let's settle down here now, Li Huamei thought to herself - I have officially surrendered to Kun.
Regarding Li Huamei's formal application for "joint membership", it has been on the table of the Civil Affairs People's Committee for a long time. The reason why he said he had to wait three months was mainly because Liu Muzhou was currently confused about the naturalized citizen policy of the Executive Committee and the Senate. This matter is related to national policy. Before getting a clear policy, he feels that it is better not to make any claims.
Executive Committee so far. There are no clear regulations on how naturalization should be defined and managed. Generally speaking, anyone who comes to Lingao to settle down is considered an "immigration". Regardless of whether they are organized immigrants or spontaneous immigrants, after arriving in Lingao, they must enter a quarantine camp for purification, and then be assigned to live in various places.
These people are registered and then uniformly assigned to various communes. In addition to the population of each village in the original counties of Hainan Island that had been incorporated into communes, completed the division of villages into households, and established basic organizations at the grassroots level, a "directly managed population" was formed under the control of the Planning Institute. A considerable proportion of this population is "indentured servants." The so-called naturalized people refer to this part of the "directly managed population". The Senate recruited soldiers from among the naturalized people, recruited workers and students, and selected cadres.
Naturalized citizens are subject to very strict control. The People's Committee for Civil Affairs, the Police Headquarters and the General Administration of Political Security jointly established a strict household registration system. Free movement is prohibited, and any permanent population movement must be accompanied by household registration transfer procedures. Use precise forms to control the specific whereabouts and movements of each naturalized citizen.
The population of other villages and towns that were not incorporated into communes paid taxes to the Senate to pay taxes and provide manpower. However, they are not included in the category of naturalized citizens statistically. At present, the Civil Affairs People's Committee has only completed the preliminary census and land clearing work for them, and issued land certificates and household registration certificates. In addition, effective grassroots governance has not yet been established in each village. Basically, it is still the routine of rural autonomy in the past. The gentry and clans still enjoy greater prestige and power. but. Due to the establishment of the National Army system and the severe crackdowns during the security war - especially a large number of gentry and clans who were purged in the name of "collaborating with bandits" during the security war, the arrogance of these traditional rural forces has been greatly reduced.
The reason why they are not included as naturalized citizens at present is purely due to the current shortage of cadres. Moreover, the entire Hainan area is vast, and it will not be possible to complete this task overnight. Moreover, the People's Committee for the Interior is currently focusing its main energy on resettlement. It will still take a long time to complete the "naturalization" of all Han, Miao and Shuli populations in Hainan. Two or three years.
But it is not difficult to become a naturalized citizen. As long as you volunteer to join the army, work as a worker or employee in an industrial, commercial and agricultural enterprise under the Senate, or go to a national school, you can be included in the category of naturalized citizen. In short, naturalized citizens are generally a class that can do whatever they want - as long as they can firmly "serve the Senate and the people." Regardless of origin, gender, or age.
Although it sounds simple in theory, in fact there has been debate in the Senate about who can be included as naturalized citizens: for example, can landlords be counted as naturalized citizens? According to the Senate's current rural work ideas, commercial landlords are encouraged to develop intensive farms. Since they are the targets of encouragement, it is obviously not a problem to include them as naturalized citizens. However, whether tenant landlords can become naturalized citizens has raised questions. Great controversy in the Senate.
Tenant landowners are the targets of "annihilation", but currently there are many tenant landowners who actively support the Senate, and many of them have sent their children to national schools and factories and enterprises. There are more than a dozen such landlords in Lingao: especially the Liu family of Xun Suji's father-in-law. Although they also joined Tiandihe and started to engage in intensive farming, their family still has a lot of leased land and tenants.
Numerous and detailed issues make it difficult to determine the identity of a naturalized citizen. Currently, Majia is taking the lead in developing a legal document on this matter to thoroughly regulate this matter.
If people like Li Huamei who have certain property and professional skills are willing to "naturalize" and become naturalized citizens, they will usually get approval. However, the Political Security Administration's political appraisal of Li Huamei is not high - although there is no clear evidence of the relationship between her and Li Siya, there are various signs that it is not groundless. According to the General Administration of Political Security, "there are historical issues and complex social relations."
So this matter has been pending. However, there were quite a few fans of Li Huamei in the Young Navy faction. They heard that Li Huamei was willing to come to "dedicate to freedom" and come to Liu Muzhou to work all day and night. Liu Muzhou couldn't bear the disturbance. After careful consideration, he decided to report directly to the executive committee and ask them to Decision-Anyway, everyone in the executive committee has heard of Li Huamei.
Li Huamei didn't know that there was a heated discussion among Australians about how to deal with herself. After dividing the money, she went to the store to see if there was any letter from her. The delivery of letters by merchants is also a service. Of course, the Political Security Administration will not miss the opportunity to check the letters.
The letter was written by a lady - of course it was addressed to a business in Macau, and the content was not to report on the purchase and sale of goods. She returned to her bedroom and burned the inside of the envelope with the flame of a gas lamp, and soon several paragraphs of writing appeared.
Li Siya asked her to collect the recent movements of the Australian Navy. In addition, she was asked to provide detailed information on the "smoky three-masted ship". Including how many cannons are mounted on it, how big the cannons it fires, and how secretly it is driven in addition to sails, etc.
Li Huamei put the letter on the gas lamp and lit it, watching it turn into ashes. She knew that her sister had given herself another problem. Of course, the essence of why her sister asked her to come to Kun was to collect information about the Australians.
"Smoky three-masted ship" - "beginning of spring" - she had seen it several times in Bopu. But this time when I came back to Lichun, I had disappeared. According to the information she had collected during her previous visits to Bopu, the Beginning of Spring had most likely gone to Kaohsiung, Taiwan, a port built by the Australians in Taiwan.
However, even if the ship is not here, she can still get some useful information from her "fans". What's more, there are some smaller "ships that spit out black smoke" in Bopu. If you are lucky, you might be able to go on the ship - she has boarded the holy ship in quite a few years.
As long as she could find an acquaintance, she would be 70-80% sure. In addition, she also wanted to take the opportunity to find her sister's whereabouts - since the young lady said that her sister was in Australia, then there was a high probability that she was in Lingao, the Australian homeland. It's probably in Bairen City, not far from here.
In order to avoid getting into trouble, she did not tell the Australians about her search for her sister Li Mo. She wanted to find someone to clarify the situation first. The girl Li Ying is the only African in Lingao. She is too conspicuous and is left at home. In fact, a woman with a height of 165cm is already eye-catching enough. It's just that the Australians have recently brought in many northerners, which makes it less conspicuous. Li Huamei put on an old uniform of a naturalized female employee, put on a straw hat and straw sandals, hung her temporary residence card around her neck, and carried a bamboo kettle on her back, barely looking like a girl from Shandong.
