Otherworldly Castle Era
Vol 4 Chapter 80: Steel resolution
"Your Majesty, my colleagues, this year there will be a new population of 2 million, among which the new population is 500,000. The total population of this country has now reached 7 million."
At the end of the eleventh day of the apocalypse, Xun Yu reported at the end of the dynasty meeting: "There are 3 million people in the three counties in the Linhai Basin, and 4 million people in the south of the Tianqi Mountain Range."
In addition to the two counties of Linhai County and Siling County in the three counties in the Linhai Basin, there is also a new county named "Xigui County".
Xigui County is the county where the super-large iron ore was discovered. There are three towns under it: Liangshan Town, Xigui Town, and Ningshan Town.
Ningshan Town is a town whose main business is to mine iron ore. Liangshan Town is located in the westernmost part of the Linhai Basin, in the mountainous area where the two mountain ranges meet. A brigade of city guards is stationed here.
The reason why a 300-man city guard was stationed in Liangshan Town was because in recent years, some natives from the deep mountains have been discovered.
After these aboriginals were discovered, the young and strong were taken into labor, and the rest of the old and weak were cleaned up. In order to prevent other aboriginals in the deep mountains, two or three towns also have the meaning of being a sentry post.
Xigui Town is where the original hunting bow-collar castle was located. The original building was cleaned up, and Xigui Town was rebuilt on it.
"It is estimated that there will be an increase of 3 million next year." Xun Yu continued to report: "The railway between the industrial town and Tianqi City is running well. There are two passenger trains and four freight trains every day."
The trial operation of trains and railways belonged to the Post Bureau of the Administrative Office, which received great attention from Yang Song. After all, the success of the trial operation represented that Xia Guo could expand the railway on a large scale.
If it were not for steel production to keep up, Yang Song really wanted to build the railway to every important place in Xia.
"This year, the country's steel production has reached 110,000 tons, of which 90,000 tons are produced in the industrial town, and 30,000 tons are produced in Ningshan Town. The plan for steel production is 300,000 tons in the industrial town and Ningshan Town. Seven hundred thousand tons."
The ten-year plan for the production of one million tons of steel is based on the principle of proximity. Where there is iron ore, there is an iron smelter, but coke as an energy source needs to be transported.
"...This year, this country has added a new affiliated island country in the Northern Territory. This is the country's most outstanding diplomatic achievement in recent years..."
Xunyu gave a detailed report on the work done by the Xia State Administration Office in the eleventh year of Apocalypse.
At the end of the report, Xun Yu raised a problem: "Although the country has added a new county, the mining of Ningshan Iron Mine and the new iron smelting plant consume a lot of manpower. If you want to build a new railway, the manpower will be insufficient. ."
Yang Song didn’t ask Xun Yu why he didn’t recruit the people because he knew that the people’s recruitment was not just a matter of food, but a whole set of system issues. It is impossible to call the people out and let them sleep on the streets.
In the past two years, Yang Song has focused on the development of people’s livelihood and recruited a large number of people. Under Xun Yu’s suggestion, Yang Song ordered every county, every town, and every village to be expanded.
The nationwide expansion has given Xia Guo a lot of surplus to the residences. This is the reason why two million people have been added every year in the past two years.
But every place has its limits of development, and it is impossible to expand indefinitely. Therefore, new counties and towns are being built at the same time as the expansion, and there is a new county under construction in the Linhai Mountains.
"Well. I know this problem alone, and I will continue to report next." Yang Song this is to bring all the problems together to discuss and solve them.
"The country's fiscal revenue this year will be 9.3 million taels, and fiscal expenditures will be 9.3 million taels." Zhang Juzheng then reported.
"In the fiscal revenue, Guihua City’s foreign trade is 800,000 taels, commercial revenue is 3.3 million taels, agricultural income is 5 million taels, and other income is 200,000 taels."
Zhang Juzheng did not mention the details of the fiscal expenditures, because Xia Guo’s actual expenditures were far more than 9.3 million taels, which had already exceeded 10 million taels. All of these extras were paid by Yang Songlai, so this problem is not straightforward. Make it clear.
"The country's army continues to remain unchanged, and the navy has built three new destroyers and assigned them to the exploration fleet." As the deputy director of the Military Department, Li Jing is responsible for military reporting.
"The detection fleet has three destroyers and three supply ships. The defense fleet has six frigates." The military report was as concise and vague as before, without more details.
Actually, the navy is building a fast battleship and two cruise ships, all of which are built for the exploration fleet. After all the warships in the exploration fleet are built, it's time for the defense fleet.
Next, the education, science and technology, legal and other departments all made reports. Once it was over, Yang Song asked the question just now: "Do you have any suggestions about the manpower required to build the railway?"
Hearing Yang Song's question, the meeting hall suddenly fell silent, and all the officials frowned and began to ponder, thinking about how to solve this problem.
"Your Majesty, the minister suggested using indigenous labor to build railways." After waiting for a while, Liu Ji first suggested: "The minister knows that building a railway requires enough labor, and these indigenous abilities are sufficient."
"Master Liu, there are only more than 80,000 indigenous labors left, which is already unusable. If a large amount of labor is allocated to build railways, where does this gap come from?" This is Xun Yu's doubt, otherwise he These natives have long been transferred to build railways.
Yang Song nodded in agreement with Xun Yu's question~www.wuxiaspot.com~ He also looked at Liu Ji with puzzled eyes, waiting for the other's explanation.
"Your Majesty, Director Xun." Liu Ji bowed his hands to the two of them, saying: "Domestic labor is not enough, but foreign countries have them."
"What do you mean?" When Yang Song heard this, his eyes lit up, looking at Liu Ji, waiting for his next words.
"Enlighten you!" Liu Ji solemnly said: "The minister has two suggestions for obtaining labor from abroad."
"Talk about it all." Yang Song couldn't wait to wave his hand and let Liu Ji continue.
"Yes, Lord." Liu Ji handed his hand: "One is to use money. There are many slave traders abroad. The country can use money to buy a large number of strong slaves. The disadvantage is that it needs to consume a lot of money."
"The second rule is to **** it." Liu Ji said this, watching the officials in the hall, many people changed their faces, hesitated for a moment, and continued: "Send troops out to plunder directly. The disadvantage is that it consumes military power. Materials, and will make the country’s reputation even more unbearable."
"The minister seconded Liu Junshi's second suggestion." After Liu Jigang finished speaking, Li Jing immediately agreed with Liu Ji's suggestion of leaving the customs and plundering.
"The minister is opposed!" Xun Yu immediately objected: "My lord, my country has not fought with other countries outside the pass for so many years. It is unwise to make my country's reputation unbearable for some labor."
