At that time, although the roads in the city were interconnected, they were of different widths, and the "[-]" in many places was still separated by some buildings, just like the old Jinling that was not planned at the beginning.

Roads of different widths, streets and alleys are distributed in disorder, which has brought great restrictions to the traffic in the city.

But after entering the city this time, Yang Jingkang found that the scene in the city had undergone earth-shaking changes.

The road that the passenger car runs is just a branch line outside the city center, even so, it is also a standard two-way four-lane specification.

Rows of street lights have been built on the wide road, sidewalks for pedestrians and non-motorized lanes for bicycles have been planned on both sides of the road.

At the very edge, there are also many sewer manhole covers.

This was only set up this year.

Although Cangzhou is located in the north, in summer, there are often heavy rains.

In the past two years, due to economic development, the city's road surface has hardened, but the drainage system inside the city has not been perfected for a long time.

As a result, when the summer rainstorm comes, there will often be a lot of water in the city.

At that time, the heavy rain was enough to form a small stream in the low part of the road, and then flow along the road to the low part of the city.

The resulting urban waterlogging can easily affect traffic travel.

But this year, Huayin Group, together with the people from the Ministry of Transportation, cooperated with the local municipal government to carry out a thorough transformation.

Under the cooperation of the three parties, the buildings in Cangzhou City that affected the road layout were completely demolished, and some original streets and alleys were also broadened and remodeled.

Now all the roads in the city have been rebuilt, obstacles in some places have also been removed, and the city roads have become more accessible.

Cangzhou municipal government has also improved the city's drainage system with the help of Huayin Group.

The municipal government recruited and dispatched a large number of workers to open up the underground drainage pipes in a short period of time.

In Cangzhou now, even if there is another heavy rainstorm, there will be no water accumulation in the city. The rainwater will be discharged into rivers and lakes along with the perfect underground drainage system.

The improvement of this kind of infrastructure has happened in cities all over the world.

Three or two years ago, in cities across the country, except for Jinling, Shanghai and other developed cities, the roads in the city were basically messy and narrow.

Not to mention street lights and a complete drainage system.

However, with the explosive growth of construction achievements in various places in the past two years, urban road traffic, as well as supporting facilities such as street lights and drainage systems are being improved nationwide.

In addition to the changes in the appearance of the roads, Zhao Jingkang also saw some buses appearing in the city.

Cangzhou is located in the north, and the influence of Huayin Group is not as strong as that of Jinling.

But even so, the passenger transportation construction of Huayin Transportation Company still extends here.

Nowadays, all domestic bus passenger transport systems are operated by Huayin Transportation Company, and these buses in Cangzhou City also come from Huayin Group.

Looking out the window for a while, Zhao Jingkang asked the two fellow villagers, "Brother, when did this Cangzhou city become so prosperous?

This is a street lamp and a bus, and there are so many high-rise buildings beside it? "

As he spoke, Zhao Jingkang pointed to a tall building in the distance.

The building is more than ten floors high, and it is located in the center of the city. The special glass around the building shines brightly even from such a distance.

When Zhao Jingkang came here last time, he didn't see this.

The two fellow villagers were surprised when they heard this.

"I said brother, you don't even know these things, don't you take the car from Cangzhou when you go home?"

Zhao Jingkang nodded: "The last time I went out to do business, I took the train going north directly from Hankou, and after arriving in Shanxi, I changed a few trains back home."

"No wonder you don't know about the changes in Cangzhou City."

Hearing this, the two fellow villagers nodded slightly.  …

Zhao Jingkang waited for them to introduce him.

The last time he closed the business in Hankou, he went north directly from the Beijing-Hanzhou Railway, and then turned to Shanxi to discuss the business.

Then I transferred directly from Shanxi and returned home.

At that time, he had never passed Cangzhou city.

Speaking of which, he was able to travel to so many places and return home smoothly, thanks to his development in the past two years.

The main areas connected by the Beijing-Han Railway are Beiping, Zhengzhou, and Hankou, which originally did not pass through the Shanxi area.

But in the past two years, especially this year, with the support of Huayin Group, the Ministry of Communications has not only opened up the northern ring road project, built most of the southern ring road, but also built roads between cities in various places.

After the completion of these roads, Huayin Transportation Company opened up passenger transport along the road almost immediately after it was opened to traffic.

Because of this, he was able to travel around by train and bus, breaking through regional restrictions to do business.

The fellow countryman glanced at the tall buildings in the distance, and said with a smile: "You don't know, Cangzhou City has changed a lot in this period of time.

I have inquired about the tall building in the middle of the city," the fellow countryman pointed to the one that Yang Jingkang saw just now: "It was only built in late spring this year.

It is said that a building materials company in Cangzhou built its headquarters here.

And I heard people say that this company also cooperates with Huayin Group.

As for what you said, the roads and sewers in Cangzhou City were only built this year.

4.3 Since spring of this year, the government has begun to vigorously build all roads and infrastructure in the city, and Huayin Group seems to have sent people to assist and guide them.

As for the specifics, we hadn't returned home at that time, and we couldn't ask clearly. "

Yang Jingkang stared slightly: "These things were built only this year?"

It was hard for him to imagine that the changes in Cangzhou City were completed in the first half of this year. After all, Cangzhou is still a city no matter how small it is, and urban construction is not just a matter of talking.

Another fellow villager shook his head slightly: "That's not true. It is said that preparations for the construction of Cangzhou City began a long time ago. It's just that the construction has not started yet.

This year, the municipal government invited people from Huayin Group to assist in planning and construction.

Based on the original plan, they completed the transformation of the city in one go. ".

Chapter 889: New Cabinet Candidates

"So it is!"

Yang Jingkang's eyes shone slightly after listening to what his fellow countrymen said.

In the past two years, the economy of all parts of the country has been developing, and the construction of cities in various places is also in progress.

Especially in the Jiangnan area, Changzhou, Zhenjiang, Wuxi and other cities around Jinling, which are located around Jinling, are the first places to be affected by development radiation.

Up to now, these cities have long been different from what they used to be, and have become the second-tier cities in China.

As for the first echelon, it is naturally Jinling, Hankou, Shanghai and other places that are already developed and have been well planned and constructed in the future.

In comparison, the cities in the north are far away from the headquarters of the Huayin Group, so they are less affected by the radiation. Although they are constantly building and developing, they are still somewhat slow in comparison.

For example, Cangzhou has a limited city size and development level, and is farther away than Jiangnan.

Because of this, Huayin Group's impact on this event was relatively late.

It wasn't until this year that the city's appearance was completely changed.

Yang Jingkang sat in the car, and the car drove along the roads outside the city all the way to Cangzhou Station.

In the center of Cangzhou City today, there are row upon row of large and small shops, and high-rise buildings have also sprung up. Even in the 09 outskirts of this area, many new buildings have been erected.

These are the initial manifestations of the city's transformation.

After arriving at the station, Zhao Jingkang got off the car and saw many people coming in and out of the auto show hall.

In the past two years, more and more people have come to work in cities from the countryside, and the group of "Southern drifters" who have traveled from the north to the south has also been expanding.

The development of the area around Jinling has created more employment and entrepreneurial opportunities for the local area. Many northerners took advantage of this opportunity and frantically flocked to the south.

From the scene of Cangzhou Station, we can see one or two.

Zhao Jingkang still remembers that Cangzhou Station was built only this year.

The Huayin Transportation Company built the station here after the Ministry of Communications rehabilitated the nearby road leading to the outside world.

From this point of view, this is just a new station.

Even so, there was still an endless stream of people in the station hall.

Most of these people were wearing rough clothes and carrying luggage, and most of them were locals near Cangzhou.

Zhao Jingkang knew without much thought that these people must be planning to go south to work.

Entering the hall, Zhao Jingkang and two fellow countrymen bought tickets together, and got on the short-distance bus to the railway station, where they would take the train going south and go straight to Pukou along the Jinpu Railway.

In the island country, the aftermath of Saito's resignation caused a lot of trouble among the high-level groups.

In the past few days, the army and navy of the island country have been looking for new candidates so that they can be elected to form a new cabinet and serve as the head of the government.

And many officials in the government are constantly asking for news.

Some of them have acquaintances in the military, so they don't hesitate to inquire about people who may come to power to form a cabinet, so that they can stand in line in advance and plan a good future for themselves.

The Army and Navy are in constant meetings.

Saito's incident made them clearly realize that the head of the cabinet elected this time must actively safeguard their own interests, and must also have sufficient economic acumen.

For this reason, the army and navy have conducted numerous discussions.

In the end, they determined their respective nominees.

On the morning of this day, the emperor held an imperial meeting again, and together with the army and navy, discussed the new cabinet members.

In the conference hall, the emperor sat upright.

On the army side, Prince Kanin, General Hayashi Mi, and the Director of Education sat in turn, and opposite them were Prince Fushimi, General Okaku, and the last lieutenant general from the navy.

The rest are senior officers of the army and navy, as well as some senior officials of the government.

After everyone arrived, the emperor first looked at the navy side, then at the army side, and then asked slowly.

"It has been many days since Saito was dismissed. You have been looking for a new cabinet candidate for this period of time. What is the conclusion now?"

After finishing speaking, the emperor first looked at Prince Xianyuan.

"Your Army, let me tell you first. Has there ever been a suitable candidate?"

When the emperor asked the question, the eyes of the soldiers in the army flickered a little. At the same time, one of the people in the government couldn't help but glance here.

They have candidates, but they are not from their army.

Because the Huayin Group's economic war this time can be said to be playing around with the army, which makes the army have to admit that they are like children in terms of economics, completely ignorant.

In order to prevent such things from continuing to develop, they have to choose a person who understands economics.

However, the education that members of the Army have received since childhood is doomed to know nothing about economics.

So they can only choose an "outsider" to come to power and form a cabinet.

But this outsider must be close to the army. Only in this way can the army's own interests be guaranteed.

The emperor noticed the trance of several people, and waved his hand: "But it's okay to say, as an imperial soldier, he hesitates and haws, this is not our style."

Only then did Prince Xianyuan say: "Your Majesty, after days of discussions, we have already found a suitable candidate."

As he said that, Prince Xianyuan looked at a group of people in the government, and then set his sights on a government official with a slightly old face and a thin figure.

The official named Hirota is the current foreign minister of the island country.

He is the person selected by the army to form a cabinet this time. 400

The important reason why the army recommended him to form a cabinet is that although Hirota was not born in the army, his attitude was biased towards the army.

Moreover, Hirota himself has outstanding abilities, and his understanding of the economy is very good, second only to Takahashi.

If Hirota can come to power and form a cabinet, it will be of great benefit to both the future development of the army and the alleviation of the current economic crisis of the empire.

Seeing Prince Hanin looking at him, Hirota nodded respectfully to the emperor.

But now that the candidate has not been determined, he cannot stand up and salute publicly. This kind of behavior can only be done after the candidate is confirmed.

The emperor was noncommittal about this, and turned his attention to the navy and others.

The emperor knew about Hirota's ability.

But he can't confirm it just because of the army's one-sided statement, and needs to listen to the navy's opinion.
