1890 King of Southeast Asia

In Australia, Liu Yiming has always been eye -catching, especially before the establishment of the Huaxia Empire, Australia was the best choice.

Looking at the sea across the sea, there are no strong powers around, rich in resources, vast land, and small cultivated land in the south.

To some extent, this heavy location is a narrow version of the United States, and its geographical location is relatively rich.

If there is enough population, it is the foundation of a big country.

Unfortunately, Liu Yiming's eyes are useless. This is the British site. Unless Liu Yiming played a fight with him, there was no way.

Being, it must be required, but it is not now.

On the second day of January, the second day of the first month, major cities such as Changan, Surabaya, Coconut City, Jinling, Shuntian, Chengdu, Yangcheng, and three towns all held grand celebrations to celebrate the beginning of the first year of the empire.

The Empire Government announced that in 1916, the year of Bingchen Dragon was the first year of the Huaxia Empire. This year, it will complete the reorganization of government affairs and began to discuss the relocation of the metropolis.

Others are not very concerned about the people. For the general public, they suddenly enter the election stage and are unrealistic.

In fact, the awakening and opening up of the people's wisdom without experienced a few years or even decades and decades, and the people who have been foolish by hundreds of years cannot understand the essence and significance of the election.

The people, especially the people of major cities, are most concerned about where they are. After all, this is directly related to the interests of the people of the Beijing division in the future.

What other reorganizations, members, universal elections, most people do not care, only students and speculators are very excited about it.

However, Liu Yiming was not ready to decentralize his power, at least let him finish the matter, let the people's brains move again, and let the extinguishing heart jump up again, Liu Yiming will truly use the local council.

When the people's wisdom was not open, the parliament would definitely have a good side as the representative of the people, but members of the parliament were not necessarily.

Most of the members are smart people, but in order to vote, money, rights, sex, and so on, they will perform very stupid and short.

After all, the world at this time is not the world that is open to the world. The enthusiasm and subjective initiative of the people are not very good. The rights will be taken down and will only be requested by someone who is attentive.

"This is this year's budget report. This is the general government expenditure. This is a few things we have to do this year ..."

After holding the case, Xu Hui came to Liu Yiming's office with a bunch of confidential documents or policy documents.

The empire expanded more than doubled at once, and the rule of ruling suddenly expanded by more than ten times. Basically, all departments were busy, and even the holidays were shortened to two days.

In these two days, I actually have to come to work, but I can go back after doing things, such as Liu Yiming's speech.

"How do you spend such high military expenditure? Last year we did a series of military operations and fought with Japan. I understand, why did it increase to 500 million yuan this year?"

Liu Yiming opened, and the expenditure in 1916 was as high as 6 billion, which was equivalent to five times the US fiscal revenue last year.

Of course, some of these 6 billion are raised through national bonds or other debt.

Some people think that the income of the United States is too low, how can such money support the construction of large fleets.

In fact, the debt of the United States has not been low. In the era of the Grand Navy, national debt is issued every year.

In 1916, its revenue was only more than $ 800 million, but its total Treasury bonds were 36.1 billion. Compared with 600 million compared with 1915, debt growth reached 75%of revenue.

It is only under the support of debt that the United States has afforded the construction of the Grand Navy. It does not mean how much it costs to make. In that case, the United States cannot support the two ocean navy.

The income of the Huaxia Empire's soaring is monopoly, not only the monopoly in the necessary materials, but also the monopoly in supply.

The outbreak of the war was very sudden, and the preparations of various countries were not very sufficient. Compared with the United States, the order can be collected to change the material to change the production line for production. Nanhua has long prepared the steps before production.

When receiving orders, you can start production directly, because the supply is full in time. During the war, the British made a lot of choices.

Just like buying a car, you have to use it right away. The same car is configured with a color. One four sons shop allows you to increase the price for half a year. Although the other four sons shops also have to increase the price, they will choose the car directly. Bar?

"The base construction of the navy, the transformation of the Lushunkou and the Jiangnan plant keeps keeping up.

"The airport construction of the Air Force, we must build 20 military airports in the Mainland to moor and release airplanes and airships."

"There is also the Army Base. According to the plan, the army must build multiple bases and exercise fields, and to establish a tank training base. This must be a lot of money."

"But the big head is still war. The war consumption of war with the Japanese this year is expected to be 350 million.

"I think we should speed up the crash of Japan."

Xu Hui knew that Liu Yiming was able to interfere with Japan. Through the intelligence department, for so many years, the special funds of the intelligence department took the strokes, and how could he move out.

As for why I was anxious, I still felt that it was not worth spending so much money to break Japan.

Three o'clock, if you put it on the local area, a large industrial area will be built, and it can directly provide tens of thousands of jobs to drive a province and radiate several provinces.

The most important thing is that money invested in construction will have output, but invested in the war with Japan will only make a sound.

This year, multiple plans have been launched, and the government has started to go into debt again. Xu Hui wishes he could split it into two.

Seeing so much money invested in Japan, Xu Hui felt distressed. Japan is such a small place, and there is nothing to ask for. Last year and this year, there are hundreds of millions. How can he get it back?

You can't get so much even if you scrape the ground three feet.

Of course, the main reason is that Xu Hui feels that Japan can no longer threaten the Chinese Empire. After all, the size is there, and China is not Tsarist Russia. It is too far away and the power cannot be projected.

"I have my own considerations on this matter. War is an opportunity. I will solve it as soon as possible." Liu Yiming looked at the expenses and nodded.

Such a huge expenditure did exceed his expectations. There were reasons for the intensity of Japan's resistance and the increase in war costs caused by the European war.

"By the way, Sun Zaizhi recently conducted a survey on opium. I took a look and it was shocking." Xu Hui nodded and changed the subject.

"Are there any specific details?" Liu Yiming was not too surprised to hear about opium. He was prepared for this, but was surprised that it was Sun Zaizhi who did it.

After thinking about it, he felt that it was reasonable. After all, this matter was a comprehensive issue, involving a wide range of issues and was very complicated. Last year, he was busy with this and that and did not have enough time to solve it.

One of the duties of the parliament is to urge the current government to solve current affairs. Such a big problem is there, and it is normal for Sun Zaizhi to raise it as the speaker.

"I haven't received the documents yet. I heard that he is still making final statistics. I wonder what attitude we should take towards this thing." Xu Hui asked.

Liu Yiming has been thinking about this issue for a long time. Initially, he wanted to continue the laws of Nanhua and ban it with severe punishment.

It is not just as simple as banning. Of course, those who transport and sell are sent to mining if they are caught, but there is also a huge group among them-opium farmers.

At the end of the Qing Empire, there was almost no country that did not grow opium, especially the southwestern provinces, which were famous for their high yield and high quality.

There are countless people who gave up growing crops and stopped growing opium. Most of the arable land in western Sichuan was used to grow opium.

In a short period of time, local opium not only defeated foreign opium and seized its domestic market, but also became an export product and was marketed abroad.

After the revolution, the provisional government managed this, and grassroots organizations made efforts to gradually reduce the scale of opium cultivation, but the effect was limited.

"This matter must be handled properly, otherwise good governance will turn into evil governance that eats people." Liu Yiming nodded, took out a cigarette, and the two lit it.

"First of all, we must further increase the control efforts. Let's not talk about planting first, but we must speed up the large-scale manufacturing, transportation, and sales."

"Their thugs, relatives, etc. are all excellent labor forces. It's just right to send them to the Western Regions to build railways."

"You will do this. As for the peasants, wait for Sun Zaizhi to send the documents. I will talk about it after I understand the specific situation."

Liu Yiming took a few puffs and put out the cigarette irritably.

The crux of banning opium lies in the landlords and peasants.

At the end of the Qing Empire, the landlords and tyrants forced the peasants to grow opium, and even did not allow them to grow other crops. Otherwise, they would be beaten, tortured, insulted, and killed.

If it was just like this, Liu Yiming would not worry at all, but the problem was that the peasants who grew opium had, to some extent, become a community of interests with the landlords and tyrants.

After all, the peasants, especially the tenants, lived on the things in the fields, and the income from growing opium was higher than that from growing grain.

Forced prohibition, without the subjective initiative of the sunny years, could not be solved, especially in China, which had not experienced so much suffering.

(The melee and the war of resistance had not stopped for decades.)

The only way Liu Yiming could think of was to solve it from the root - no buying and selling, no killing.

Clean up the merchants responsible for the circulation of goods, and artificially cause the market to shrink rapidly.

This would lead to a market shortage of supply and soaring opium prices, and many people would take risks, but it would also cause oversupply in the production area, making the peasants lose their enthusiasm for planting.

At that time, it was time for Liu Yiming to take action to rectify everything.

And no one can say Liu Yiming is wrong. Shouldn't the drug dealers die?

As for why no compulsory measures were taken, there were so many people, time, energy and money. Do you know how many people were mobilized to suppress the bandits?

That was the result of the participation of all people under the superposition of various buffs. Has anyone succeeded in other countries?
