Chapter 649 Cigarette Factory

At the beginning of the opening of the station with Myanmar, Tang Chendong had already designed a development path for Sanli City, that is, to grow tobacco leaves.

After the analysis of soil quality, geological conditions and climatic conditions by Mr. Shen Guozhen and his team, it is very suitable for growing high-quality tobacco leaves.

Originally, it has been tested in practice here, and the quality of the smoke is very high.

Therefore, before the war began, Tang Chendong had asked Zhou Bing to call on all the farmers in Sanli City to open up the wasteland to grow tobacco, and he was responsible for recycling.

However, after the war, many tobacco plantations were destroyed. Fortunately, the victory in the war gave the farmers a lot of confidence, and everyone invested in the cultivation of tobacco leaves.

Tang Chendong invited several agricultural experts in this field from China to give training.

As soon as the war ended, Tang Chendong contacted two leading cigarette factories in Caiyun Province and Guiyun Province, and the Commerce Department of Tongguò Sanli City planned to invest in the construction of a cigarette factory in Sanli City and develop a new cigarette brand. The brand name is named after the place where the Sanli cigarette factory is located.

Long Xiang.

It's a very Chinese name.

It can be seen that Sanli City is simply a city in China.

There is a town called Longxiang Town on the outskirts of Sanli City, which is close to a small river, and the terrain is relatively gentle, which is very conducive to setting up a factory.

This cigarette factory, or the regular name is Longxiang Tobacco Group Company, with an investment of 100 million yuan, three production lines, and an annual output of 100,000 boxes of cigarettes.

Of course, this is only the initial planning, if the local tobacco is not enough to digest, anyway, Caiyun Province is too large because of the tobacco planting area. Growers' profits are too low, and they can absorb some of them here.

For the company, the main problem is the market positioning.

Of course, the most important market is actually the Chinese domestic market, because it is very bad with the Burmese government, Tang Chendong does not pin his hopes on the Burmese market, besides, the Burmese market is too small after all.

However, Tang Chendong strongly advocated setting up a factory in Sanli City, not in Caiyun Province or Guiyun Province. So. The cigarettes produced here are imported products for China.

The tariffs are very high, and the controls are very strict.

Plus cigarettes have a very large regional protectionism. Tang Chendong didn't know if this market would be easy to open. Fortunately. In Guiyun and Caiyun provinces and several surrounding provinces. The brands of Guiyun Tobacco Group and Caiyun Tobacco Company are very good, and I believe that the products produced by these two companies will definitely have no problem in the initial reputation.

The key is the quality of the tobacco grown here in Sanli City.

Again. With Tang Chendong's influence in China and in Sanli City. It's still easy to get cigarettes into a competitive price.

You must know that in China, the profits and taxes on cigarette factories are very high, and Tang Chendong can completely let the Sanli Municipal Government charge less taxes on cigarettes, so that it can form enough competitiveness in China.

Besides, the cigarette factory will definitely not be the pillar industry of Sanli City in the future. Charging more taxes and collecting less taxes is not Tang Chendong's final say.

Tang Chendong wants to build Sanli City into a second HK in the future, but he knows that this is very difficult, after all, Sanli City does not belong to Huaxia, and HK has more natural geographical advantages, people are close to the sea, there are excellent ports, and there is nothing here in Sanli City.

The task of building an international financial centre is basically a very big idea.

But Tang Chendong wanted to spare no effort.

Even if it is not an international financial center, at least the level of urbanization and per capita income must be on par with that side. However, for a mountainous place like Sanli City, which is deep in the plateau, it will be difficult to build any kind of leading industry.

Therefore, as the ruler, Tang Chendong's first consideration must be that multiple industries go hand in hand and complement each other's advantages. In the continuous development, we have sought a suitable path for the development of Sanli City.

In any case, today's Sanli City is fundamentally different from the previous Sanli City.

The difference is a complete makeover.

After months of reconstruction and proven work.

The Sanli City City Hall, which Tang Chendong secretly managed, has formed a set of effective management plans.

Tang Chendong spared no effort to recruit a lot of talents who were willing to pay for him in Sanli City at home and abroad to fill all positions in the Sanli City City Hall.

Of course, the city of Sanri, which has almost complete autonomy, recognizes dual citizenship. And even if you don't have Burmese nationality, you can still work at the city hall of Sanli City.

In this regard, Sanli City Hall is more like a company than a government.

Of course, when Sanli City was first established, it was already commendable to be able to do so. Sanli City needs development and talents.

And it takes a long time to develop more talent locally.

Whether it is household registration management, business administration, or municipal management, the Sanli City Hall has a set of methods, although it is not mature enough, but at least it can cope with the current situation.

After building a barbed wire fence stretching for more than 100 kilometers in the Zhanzhì area of Sanli City, and then arranging for the army to patrol the border at any time, the phenomenon of smuggling has been greatly alleviated.

Sanli City needs people, but it needs talents with at least one skill in various industries, not unemployed vagrants who only want to eat here and refugees from Myanmar.

For the refugees and poor people who are so poor, there are enough in the city of Sanli.

At present, Tang Chendong has not thought of enough solutions.

In the future, several places to digest these people are to grow tobacco leaves and mine.

But after all, at least 99 percent of the more than 100,000 people in Sanli City are peasants, and they are peasants who can't read a few big characters.

Therefore, Tang Chendong has a long way to go, compared with Gujing Village, there are advantages here, that is, the land area is large and the resources are relatively rich, but the disadvantage is that the population is low.

As the best tobacco industry enterprises in China, Caiyun Tobacco Factory and Guiyun Tobacco Factory have a complete set of plans, but Tang Chendong is not too worried about factory management.

Therefore, the most important thing for Tang Chendong to do is actually supporting work, such as urban infrastructure and roads.

The most important thing is the airport.

Regardless of whether the money can be scraped together at this stage, at least Tang Chendong has asked Zhou Bing to bring this topic to the city hall meeting.

With Tang Chendong's will, this issue is not a problem at all.

As for the feasibility, there is no need to study at all, it must be feasible.

The first is the airport, followed by the highway.

It is not a highway from Sanli City to the capital of Myanmar, but a highway from Sanli City to Kun Minh City in Caiyun Province, and then relies on the high-speed network in China to link to all parts of China.

From the very beginning, Tang Chendong positioned Sanli City as a city in Huaxia rather than a city in Myanmar. He is not afraid of the Burmese government, which signed the peace agreement, going back on it.

If the Burmese government is concerned about the development of this side and wantonly sabotages, Tang Chendong will give up his position of not personally participating in the first place, and teach the Burmese government a good lesson. Such a small country, even if he has the United States behind him, he will not be afraid of anything.

If he is strong and the national level can't help it, can't he do whatever he wants.

Therefore, Tang Chendong spared no effort to carry out construction in Sanli City, although the current tax revenue is basically equal to zero, but the government budget led by Zhou Bing has reached billions.

That is to say, in the future, the tax revenue of Sanli City will soon be one billion.

Fortunately, now the Sanli Municipal Government has several hundred million yuan in finance, and some projects can still be implemented immediately. (To be continued......)
