As of August 5, the United States of Cuba had captured more than 67,000 captives, including more than 13,000 Spaniards. Among the captives were three counts, seven viscounts, and more than twenty barons. These nobles alone It's worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Because ordinary prisoners are large in number and relatively higher in value, Li Mu leases 15,000 captives to Green Giles. Green Giles needs to pay Li Mu 300,000 US dollars per month for this; Li Mu also returns It was leased to 20,000 prisoners in the United States of Cuba for the same price of $ 20 per month. Because the United States of Cuba had no cash to pay the rent, the rent was settled by plantations and mines in the Spanish-occupied area of the island of Cuba.

One of the benefits of using prisoners of war as labor is that you do n't have to worry about the death of the workers. If you are hiring workers, you have to compensate for accidents at work. The amount of compensation varies. Generally, it is better to die. The general standard is two years Workers' salaries, if calculated based on a monthly salary of 20 US dollars, is about 500 US dollars. If they are injured, it will be a big trouble. Counting the cost of treatment and compensation, the standard can break through the sky.

It may seem cruel to say so, but it is realistic.

In fact, the accidental compensation of prisoners of war in the work is higher, but for Green Giles and Sylvester, they can get a share of the compensation for the prisoners of war, and they can't get the compensation for the hired workers.

By comparison, prisoners of war are indeed very popular.

Relatively speaking, there is a larger labor shortage on Li Mu's side. There are more Li Mu's projects. Port repairs, factories, and plantations and mines need to be maintained. The remaining 30,000 people are It was actually a lack of manpower for the division, which forced Li Mu to send a telegram to Will and ordered him to get some prisoners of war.

In early August, asphalt from Trinidad finally arrived in Guantanamo.

Li Mu has been working on the idea of asphalt since May, but was struggling to find a suitable transport ship, so he had to order from the New York shipyard. Until last month, the first specialized asphalt transport ship was finally delivered and became Riem- Corbin Ocean Shipping's first professional freighter.

The Lim-Corbin Ocean Shipping Company is the company that Li Mu and Eble partnered with. The company now owns a total of six ocean liners, four on the route between New York and Europe, and two on the Far East to San Francisco. Although it seems that it has just started, the number of passenger ships is steadily increasing. With Li Mu and Abel as the backing, the company has a bright future.

"We have followed the path of Mr. Sanchez, the Chief Executive of Trinidad. The cost of such a 500-tonne asphalt from Trinidad to Guantanamo does not exceed two hundred dollars, and almost no cost is required- Gabriel Kirton, general manager of Rem Corbin Ocean Shipping, watched the freighter entering Guantanamo Bay with ambition and reported to Li Mu in a respectful but unreserved tone: "Follow your instructions, we report to Ten more such ships have been added to the shipyard, and all of them will be delivered within this year. "

Gabriel Kirton is a professional manager hired by Mu Mu through J.P. Morgan. Neither Li Mu nor Abel have time to manage the company, so hiring a professional manager is the best way, and for the sake of fairness, the company's finances are also Hiring a professional accounting company to take care of it, so what Li Mu and Ebble have to do is pave the way for the company, and then wait for the money to be collected.

Trinidad is currently a British colony. The British did not realize the great development value of asphalt, so Gabriel could easily obtain asphalt from Trinidad with almost no cost.

The improvement of road traffic is an important sign of social development. If you want to build roads before you get rich, Li Mu plans to promote asphalt roads in San Diego, Guantanamo, and Springfield. This will definitely require a lot of asphalt, so Li Mu will increase orders. To make the most of these asphalts.

"How much can such a ship of asphalt be sold to Europe?" Li Mu not only wanted to use it by himself, but also wanted to transport the asphalt to Europe. Others did not understand the value of asphalt, but Li Mu knew it well.

"Shipping to Europe-about $ 25,000-" Gabriel's eyes brightened and he immediately saw the prospect of asphalt.

One to fifty dollars, this price is very good. After all, the asphalt itself has almost no cost, and the transportation cost is almost all profit. This kind of business can make people crazy.

"What's the name of the British Chief Executive in Trinidad?" Li Mu decided to monopolize this sole business. The world's such an asphalt lake must be firmly controlled.

"Sanchez, Sanchez Trollope." Gabriel was lamenting in her heart, and saw another chance to get rich was so missing.

"It sounds like a South American--" Li Mu was a little skeptical. If it was a South American, it would be unlikely that he would be directly appointed as the Chief Executive by the British.

"A pure British, but born in South America. Sanchez's father was originally a British colonial official in South America." Although Gabriel was sorry, he did not dare to conceal. Only in Cuba did Gabriel know the power of Li Mu. How huge.

Aibu is under the banner of a U.S. President 's brother-in-law, right, but Aibu also has to abide by the rules of the game in the United States, it is impossible to be unbridled, and Li Mu is the real one-handed man in Cuba, where Li Mu is omnipotent and his power is not People constraints.

Therefore, although Gabriel regretted it, he absolutely did not dare to **** food from Li Mu. Gabriel may have entered the elite class in the United States, but in Cuba, Li Mu could make Gabriel disappear in minutes.

"Very well, tell Mr. Sanchez that I have a business to talk to him about." Li Muzhi was arrogant and wanted to turn the asphalt lake on Trinidad into his own small vault.

"Yes sir--" Gabriel bowed himself, and it sounded that Li Mu did not intend to go to Trinidad, but it said that Gabriel had to find a way to get Sanchez to Guantanamo.

In fact, compared to San Diego, the construction of Guantanamo City started earlier, especially the road from Guantanamo Bay to Guantanamo City, the roadbed was already repaired early, and the paving machinery purchased from Europe also arrived in Guantanamo long before the asphalt came over. And start work right away.

When the freighter is docked on the dock, the relevant technicians and workers are waiting on the dock. The asphalt is liquid. It must be transferred to a special carriage and sent to the construction site for heating before use. These things do not need Li Muguan. Naturally The staff brought by Green Giles are responsible.

"My God, this kind of stuff smells strange." Greene Giles complained about coming to Li Mu, and it seemed that he would go to San Diego with Li Mu at night, and wait for ten days and a half before coming back.

The taste of bitumen is indeed a bit big. In fact, this is only natural bitumen. If that kind of coal tar pitch, Li Mu had already hid in San Diego. The coal tar pitch contains carcinogens.

But even so, it has also made Green Giles intolerable. In the nineteenth century, Cuba has almost no industrial pollution compared to the United States in the twenty-first century. Green Giles has become accustomed to this kind of green Water can't stand this pungent smell.

"It hasn't been heated yet. When it's heated, the taste will be-oh." Li Mu deliberately stimulated Green Giles, full of malice.

"Don't say it anymore, I think we'd better go to San Diego as soon as possible." Green Giles couldn't bear it, and now wants to leave his post without permission.

What's the matter, anyway, no one supervises Green Giles, the chief executive of Guantanamo. At this time, the United States also had no right to supervise.

"The same is true of Santiago, and another ship will arrive in Santiago in a few days." Li Mu did not leave Green Jills alive, and now Cuba, like the dynasty at the end of the twentieth century, is a large construction site.

With more than 30,000 prisoners of war, the construction of the San Diego port area has made rapid progress. In just four or five days, the sewers in the port area have begun to be laid. It is expected that this work will be completed within half a month.

This is also due to the early construction of the Chinese workers. After all, before the prisoners of war entered the construction site, the tunnel operation of the main sewer was basically completed. This year, there is no shield machine. If you want to dig the tunnel, you can only use a shovel and a pickaxe. It is only one month. Kung Fu, the Chinese workers dug the main tunnel of five kilometers long, this speed is enough to prove the hard work of Chinese workers.

Of course, the work efficiency of the prisoners of war is also good. It has been only a week since the first batch of prisoners of war entered the work area. The work done by prisoners of war is twice as much as that of Chinese workers, thanks to the Cuba hired by Li Mu. Supervisors, with the hard work of Cuban supervisors, more than 70 prisoners of war died within a week of various accidents, with an average of nearly ten people per day.

With such diligent workers, the construction work of the port area is naturally a thousand miles away. The engineer in charge of the project, American engineer Norman Norge, proudly reported to Li Mu last night. It is expected that the first phase of the construction of the port area does not need to wait until the end of the year, up to October. Can be completed.

"Rim, I have a good place. How about going to the Bahamas?" Green Giles suddenly blinked.

"The Bahamas? Where can I go?" Li Mu did not know about the Bahamas, but only knew that the Bahamas used to be a tourist destination in the 21st century, but in this era, the Bahamas was a British colony, and Li Mu, an American, couldn't seem to go to Britain casually Let the colonies run.

"Of course you can. You don't have a Ranger. Let's drive the Ranger and bring your guard. No one dares to bother us." Green Giles said boldly, as if the Bahamas was The same as in Borderless.

"Go with the Rangers-do you want the United States of Cuba and the British to go to war?" Li Mu disagreed, and now Li Mu could not afford the British.

"No, no, at best, war against pirates, British talents won't control-" Green Giles was confident again.

pirate!

Li Mu immediately came to the spirit.
