Romanian Eagle

Genius remembers the address of this site in one second: (Top Chinese), the fastest update! No ads! Time passed by in a hurry, and before I knew it, more than a month passed. Edel also spent Christmas with his parents and wife, and then The calendar turned to 1914. The situation in Europe is still tense, but there are many people who are optimistic, but Eder knows that this is the last time of peace in Europe. Just this year, the Allies headed by Britain, France and Russia and the Allies headed by Germany and Austria will fight fiercely for their own interests. Romania's small physique is now on the sidelines, making last-minute bets.

Recently, Edel asked the guards to hang a large world map in his office so that he could remind himself at any time. Romania is now sandwiched between the Allies and the Allies, not much better than the Balkan countries.

Moreover, according to Eder's request, Transylvania and Bessarabia, the two Romanian-occupied areas, need to be divided into Romania, which both sides of the Entente and the Alliance will not agree to now. Now that Transylvania is in the hands of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and Bessarabia is occupied by Russia, even the arrogant Romanians must admit that neither of these two countries can compete with Romania's current small size.

So Eder has only one preparation for this, and that is to wait, until Russia is occupied by Ulyanov, and until Austria-Hungary is almost unable to fight, even if the conditions given by Britain and France are reduced. Because then with the discoloration of Russia and the collapse of Austria-Hungary, coupled with the defeat of Germany, there will be a time window for power in Eastern Europe and the Balkans.

Although in the next ten years, with the rise of the Soviet Union and the rearmament of Germany, this window period will end. But Eder took a fancy to this time period and planned to control it during this time, which would be of great benefit to Romania. If the operation is good, it may not be impossible for Romania to win back the seat of an imperial power.

Now Eder knows the situation in Romania for the future seat of the newly promoted powers.

In the previous statistics, Eder warned the government's statistics department that the statistics are very important, so they should pay more attention to it. However, the statistical results this time are also worthy of Edel's warning, and the data is very detailed.

One more thing to say here, since the statistical survey at the end of 1910, Eder has handed over the statisticians to the government. Seeing that the statistical results are conducive to the adjustment of government governance, the government set up a special statistics department based on this group of personnel. Now there are more than 300 people specializing in this work, Eder looked at the statistical results of various Romanian statistics.

This year, due to Romania's participation in the Second Balkan War, the economic development has eased compared with previous years. This year, Romania's gross national product (GDP) (excluding the statistics of newly added territories) reached 6.301 billion lei, compared with 59.17 in the statistics at the end of 1912. Billion lei increased by 6.5%, the increase has been moderated. However, it is believed that with the improvement of the statistical department next year, the former Bulgarian territory will be included in the statistics, and Romania will have a substantial growth.

The main reason for the reduction in Romania's economic growth is the slowdown in the growth of the automobile manufacturing industry, which is its pillar industry. In Europe, Volkswagen's exports reached a new high, reaching an export volume of 521,500 vehicles, but the growth rate was only 3.8% higher than last year, and the export volume has entered a period of weakness. The European auto market further expanded, reaching 3.7 million units, an increase of 6.7%.

More than half of the new vehicles are occupied by other European car manufacturers. This trend is most obvious in France and Italy, where Renault and Fiat have added a new car production workshop, which is also related to the increase in car tariffs in European countries. has a lot to do with it. Previously, the auto tariff was only 15.7%.

However, after automakers in various countries lobbied the government to increase vehicle import tariffs, there were generally 5-10% tariff increases, while Romania imported less from France and Italy, leaving it with no countermeasures. industry is most important,

Therefore, it is also the highest increase in the two countries to reach an increase of 10%.

Germany, Austria-Hungary and Russia only increased by 5%, 5.5%, and 6.1% respectively because of their own interests, so that Volkswagen still guaranteed a good competitiveness. As for the UK, due to the dispersion of car manufacturers, although it also increased by 7.8 % tariffs do not hold much pressure on Volkswagen, which still dominates in this country.

Although the export of complete vehicles has been hampered, relying on low wages and large-scale assembly lines, Volkswagen still occupies 68% of the European car market and is still the number one target of car manufacturers in various countries.

The export of parts and components benefits from the existing market size, so that the public also has very good benefits. According to the customs statistics at the end of the year, the export volume of auto parts in 1913 reached 64.123 million lei.

Due to the large-scale use of automobiles, the oil consumption in Europe has reached 8.65 million tons, of which oil from Persia and oil from Baku, Russia, account for 41% of the market. And Romania, because of the funds of the government and the royal family, also allows its oil to occupy 18.7% of the market share, and the remaining share is occupied by the American oil company, which was split by Standard Oil.

It is worth mentioning that when the Standard Oil was split, Eder and the Romanian government demanded the redemption of the 12.5% ​​stake in the Romanian Oil Company that Standard had previously invested in. I don't know whether it was because Europe was about to go to war or what, so Rockefeller agreed to Romania's move. To this end, Eder and the government used 45 million lei to buy back 12.5% ​​of the Romanian oil company. And Standard Oil's move to quadruple the capital invested in the stock in 7 years was considered a beautiful talk at the time.

In addition to car and oil exports, Romania's other major export item is traditional food exports. In the statistics at the end of 1913, Romania's grain exports this year reached a new high of 3.17 million tons. Among them, the export of corn, mainly used as livestock feed, reached 1.36 million tons, while the export of wheat decreased to 874,000 tons, and the export of other types of grain was 936,000 tons, mainly crops such as barley, oats and potatoes. Among them, 39% of the grain is exported to foreign countries after deep processing.

Eder can see from this data that the quality of life of the Romanian people is gradually improving. While the output of wheat as the staple food has reached a new high, the export volume is shrinking. It can be seen that a large amount of wheat is consumed by the people of the country. The sugar beet, which is the raw material for sugar extraction, is basically not exported, which also shows that the quality of life in Romania has been greatly improved.

Even with the slow increase in the export of food and automobiles, Romania's total export volume has reached a new high of 1.378 billion lei this year, and the total import volume has also reached an all-time high of 1.198 billion lei.

As the government's most concerned fiscal revenue, Romania has also reached a total tax revenue of 612 million lei this year, of which the largest contribution is the import and export tariff, which reached 147 million lei, followed by the industrial and commercial tax revenue of 67.4 million lei. Iraq, then the agricultural tax of 48.7 million lei, and the rest is all other total taxes.

As for the value-added tax, which occupies the majority of the current society, it has no effect now. Eder did not study taxation in his previous life. Therefore, the Romanian government has taxes that are popular in all countries, and he does not know about the taxes that have not yet appeared.

PS Previously, Mantou suspended the update due to resignation and looking for a house, and now I want to make it up. As for time, take your time. ()
