In recent years, the Spaniards have been increasing their cooperation with Datang in shipping. They have not enough ships of their own, and they run slowly, which is greatly affected by the season.

Therefore, many Spanish businessmen have actually begun to hire Datang's transport ships to help them transport people and goods.

Not to mention the transportation of goods, let's talk about the transportation of people.

For these Spaniards, if the laborers died too much on the journey, it was also a great loss, and it was better to be alive or not.

And the personnel carrier of the Pacific Shipping Company seems to be in poor condition, but that is compared with passenger ships, but if you compare it with the Spanish, and the ships used by the English to transport slaves, the conditions are very good. too much.

The Pacific Shipping Company received the stimulus of moving from various countries in the South China Sea, and placed orders for dozens of ships in one go, and those who received these orders were not large shipyards, but basically small and medium-sized shipyards, many of which were established In the shipyards in the river, the technology is not very good.

However, the technology of this thousand-ton personnel carrier is very simple, and many inland shipyards can build it.

The Pacific Shipping Company did this, and other shipping companies did the same, and they all ordered a lot of personnel carriers.

These shipping companies are all preparing for the relocation of the Southeast Asian countries.

At the same time, it prepared for the larger immigration activities of the Empire in the following years.

The cooperation agreement signed by the Immigration and Reclamation Division and them not only moves for Nanyang countries, but also has its own immigration activities.

These shipping companies are also shrewd people. From this, they have already seen that the passenger transportation industry will continue to rise sharply in the future, and the freight industry will continue to rise sharply.

For this reason, orders for various passenger ships and cargo ships flew to the desks of major shipyards like snowflakes.

These passenger ships are not simple personnel transport ships, but serious passenger ships.

For these professional passenger ships, the Empire has strict regulations, and there are some strict regulations on construction technical standards and safety standards to ensure the safety of passengers at a minimum.

At the same time, considering the issue of operating costs, the new passenger ships ordered by major shipping companies are relatively large. Generally, the tonnage is more than 3,000 tons, and there are many more than 5,000 tons. Even several leading shipping companies have also ordered luxury ships of 10,000 tons. Passenger ship orders.

Since the Pacific Shipping Company placed an order for the 10,000-ton luxury passenger ship New Pacific, although the luxury passenger ship has not yet been built, other shipping companies have followed suit.

The leader of the shipping company, the Yangtze River Shipping Company, has already placed an order for a 10,000-ton luxury passenger ship.

The second runner-up in the shipping industry, Feng Shipping Company, is not far behind, and has also placed an order for a 10,000-ton luxury passenger ship.

Then there are the top ten shipping companies, who have successively placed orders for 10,000-ton luxury passenger ships, which is regarded as an official launch of the competition for 10,000-ton luxury passenger ships.

At that time, these 10,000-ton luxury passenger ships will become a new model of ocean passenger transportation. If these huge 10,000-ton luxury passenger ships have more third-class cabins and more berths along the way, they can transport thousands of people at one time. Woolen cloth.

Of course, even if these luxury passenger ships are built, they are actually relatively expensive and small in number, so there are probably not many people who can actually ride them at that time.

For the outflow of hundreds of thousands of people from the Datang Empire every year, the carrying capacity of several thousand people on a few luxury passenger ships is nothing at all.

The main ships for more migrant transportation are still large numbers of ordinary passenger ships.

The conditions for these rides are generally normal. Passengers with a tonnage ranging from two to three thousand tons to four to five thousand tons are the main force of the maritime passenger transport of the Tang Empire.

Every year, hundreds of thousands of immigrants are shipped overseas.

However, only the immigrants of the Tang Empire itself are so precious, and hundreds of thousands of people have used such a huge capacity.

If it is the labor of the Spaniards, or the labor of several labor service companies, their annual transportation volume is not small, and they add up to hundreds of thousands, but the transportation capacity required to transport these people is even 5% of the imperial passenger ships. Not one of them!

When the major shipping companies received the huge immigration plan of the Nanyang relocation and subsequent immigration and reclamation divisions, when they started large-scale shipbuilding, it also brought a new round of surging development opportunities to the shipbuilding industry of the Datang Empire.

In the past, although the shipbuilding industry of the Datang Empire was also developing at a high speed, this rapid development has actually slowed down in recent years.

Because after more than ten years of rapid development, when the total tonnage of Datang's ships has exceeded 4 million tons, the follow-up development will continue, but it has already experienced the initial explosive development.

Although there are many orders for new ships, due to the development of shipbuilding technology~www.wuxiaspot.com~ the requirements for the shipbuilding industry are constantly improving. Although the shipbuilding industry in the Datang Empire has developed rapidly, the total number of shipyards It can be seen that there is no explosive continuous growth.

Because the orders for these new ships, especially the orders for the most profitable offshore and ocean-going ships, are generally relatively large in tonnage, and small shipyards are not strong enough to undertake such orders, and they are all robbed by medium and large shipyards.

But now, when the major shipping companies start a new round of placing orders for dozens or even hundreds of ships almost like dumplings, it is not only the medium and large shipyards who are stimulated.

Even those small shipyards want to take advantage of this opportunity to develop a wave!

For a time, the shipbuilding industry of the Datang Empire showed the explosive prosperity of ten years ago, and it can be seen that major shipyards are expanding their production capacity.

This also indirectly drives the development of other industries, such as the steel industry, which is the most connected.

Nowadays, the shipbuilding of the empire, even inland ships, is generally made of steel. The entire shipbuilding industry has become the largest single steel consumption market in the empire, and its importance is comparable to railway construction.

Thanks to the development of the shipbuilding industry, several major steel companies have also received a large number of orders for shipbuilding steel, and then successively started the rhythm of expanding production capacity.

Also greatly affected is the coal industry!

Today, a major customer of the coal industry is the shipping industry.

The shipping industry has set off a wave of explosive growth, which immediately led to the development of the coal industry.

The first is the rise in the price of coal, and as soon as the price rises, more people see profits, and a lot of capital begins to pour into the coal industry and start to mine more coal.

In particular, coal mines in Tangshan, Shanxi, Northeast China and other regions have been opened to expand production after receiving a large amount of investment.
