Belgrano naval port,
San Jose and the new head of the naval base are chatting, Vice Admiral Harris Trey, who is only 46 years old and has served as the captain of the Argentine Rivadavia-class battleship and the Admiral Brown-class heavyweight for 10 years. The cruiser has witnessed the most glorious era of the Argentine Navy.
Harris is a "bastard" in the eyes of many people, but he is surprisingly lucky. The Trey family is a well-known business family in Buenos Aires, owning a series of well-known Trey Foods and Tracy Meat Factory. Industry, but Harris had no interest in doing business since he was a child. When he graduated from high school, he was admitted to the Military University in Buenos Aires with the lowest grades.
Later, he went to the Navy and started as a sailor. Later, he was promoted all the way because of his outstanding professional skills, and finally became a captain. The Trey family was liquidated for supporting Bilong, and Harris was originally going to be affected by this.
However, he had made good friends with San Jose early on, and had given a lot of support to the development of the Blanca Warship Factory. He also secretly took refuge in the then small mayor of Blanca, and received huge rewards.
Although the Blanca Warship Factory is small in scale, it is directly under the supervision of Saint Jose. At first, it only engaged in the maintenance and repair of warships. Later, it became independent to transform warships. Later, it even designed and manufactured coast guard ships, and obtained the title of San Jose. of attention.
To put it bluntly, the current Argentine Navy is actually a rag-picker. There are a large number of second-hand American warships in the series, some of which are decades old. The potential of the Blanca Warship Factory has been valued by San Jose. Argentina has never It has not produced its own warships yet. This guard ship is at best equivalent to the technology of the 1930s, but it is still quite remarkable.
After producing the coast guard ship, Saint-Jesse allocated 10 million US dollars to the warship factory for investment in military technology and the acquisition of old American technology.
Today, the Argentine Navy has purchased many old ships. Although the total tonnage of the navy is astonishing and it is known as the second largest navy in the Americas, it no longer has much combat effectiveness, its training is lax, and it owes up to US$3 million in maintenance fees to the Blanca Warship Factory.
Sanjesé is now both the creditor of the naval base and an important talker. He single-handedly manipulated Harris's promotion, spent a lot of money and connections to open up Harry's promotion path, and took care of everything. Now he is in Argentina The Navy also has its own agents.
Belgrano now belongs to San Jose, and with the support of one of the three major naval districts, San Jose has clearly become a major favorite in Buenos Aires.
Some of the leading figures in Buenos Aires also traveled to Belgrano to meet with San Jose.
But the city of Blanca was still in a mess, which affected Saint Jose's mood.

The shipbuilding industry, automobile industry, motorcycle industry, and metallurgical machinery industry are developing.

The scale of this loan directly increased the overall debt scale of La Pampa Province from less than 4 US dollars to 700 million US dollars, and does not include the debts of other private consortiums.
Under the instruction of San Jose, the three major state-owned banks in La Pampa Province and the Commercial Bank of Blanca also began their crazy off-site expansion, setting up bank branches on a large scale, absorbing deposits through high interest rates and financial management, and even vaguely surpassed the rate of inflation.

It’s just that the overall population of 4 million is difficult to meet the needs of industrialization, of which more than 3 million live in Blanca City. Especially when an all-round industry like the automobile industry truly develops, the talents and workers needed will start at 100,000.
Blanca is close to a population explosion and feels a bit overwhelmed. Saint Jose has also realized how difficult it is to manage a city of 3 million people in the non-information age, so population diversion and restrictions have been launched.
The three coastal cities must accommodate more people, the population of Blanca City must be controlled within 4 million, and the outer suburban counties need to be developed into satellite cities.
The other areas of La Pampa Province outside of Blanca City are sparsely populated. After integration and merger into a metropolitan city, the strength of the central urban area has increased, and the population has increased dramatically within two years. It has become extremely prosperous, absorbing the excess overflow population from Blanca City. .
It is already early winter, and the grass on the grasslands is gradually withering. In addition, there are large areas of cultivated fertile fields in other places on the Pampas grassland, and the wheat has just been harvested.

A large number of food factories, textile factories, and leather factories were opened here. Pig farms and chicken farms in the suburbs soon became influxed with Chinese. The Indian community competed with the Chinese at a high level, but they have obviously been taken over by the hard-working and intelligent Chinese. beat.
Chinese culture can be seen everywhere in the newly built Chinatown. Hard-working and smart Chinese immigrants soon replenished the corner market of Blanca. Many new Chinese immigrants initially worked in low-end jobs, and only wealthy Chinese families lived in the urban area.
However, since the local war in Nanyang, some wealthy Chinese immigrants came to Blanca City.
However, some Chinese immigrants who grouped together have mastered the skills of making money and entered the department store, catering and clothing and textile industries. The successful wealthy families in Cordoba's Chinatown became their role models.
Among the new immigrants, prestigious and wealthy Chinese families participated in the management of Chinatown and even began to build Taoist temples.

A newly built Taoist temple has also been sought after by some new immigrants. "Fusheng Wuliang Tianzun" has become a famous mantra, and cultivated Taoist priests have participated in labor to obtain funds.
The lion dance performance to celebrate the Spring Festival in Chinatown also attracted the participation of many new immigrants.
The Chinese delicacies in Chinatown are St. Hesse’s favorite. Pork is a meat that Western countries are not good at cooking. Its status is far lower than that of beef and mutton. Originally, it was mainly a matter of breeding.
, Westerners don’t understand pork at all, and the Chinese brought techniques such as boar castration, pig killing and bloodletting to improve the taste of pork.
Various techniques for cooking pork spread, and Peruvian Chinese and Nanyang Chinese brought a large number of Chinese delicacies, enriching the immigrant food culture of La Pampa Province.
New Chinese immigrants have opened the largest restaurants in Blanca City, and highly skilled Chinese chefs have brought a wide variety of recipes to enrich the dining tables of La Pampa people.
Nowadays, Chinese restaurants can be said to be everywhere in Blanca. The high-quality and cheap Chinese delicacies, from pig's trotter rice to braised spicy chicken, have conquered the stomachs of Argentinians who eat roast beef every day. This has attracted Chinese people to Blanca. City is more popular than Indian.
