Chapter 619: It's a Bit Hard to Be a Good Person (Third Update)
"This year's work will focus on the installation of broadcasting, the construction of roads, the popularization of electrical equipment, education and the increase of food production."
Wang Lanling spoke at the meeting on the key points of this year.
Gong Yueman said suspiciously: "In terms of business, what plans do you need to make this year?" ”
Wang Lanling explained: "At present, our development tends to be saturated, and it is unlikely that we can grow by leaps and bounds just by relying on the cotton spinning market in several surrounding places. ”
"In terms of cotton mills, it can probably last for more than 20 years, and now it is okay to continue to maintain a steady upward trend, and there is no need to blindly expand."
The cotton spinning mill is now second only to the arms business in terms of huge income, and the rest of the people do not have the same big heart as Wang Lanling, so it is not important to say that it is not important.
Qi Kaifu said: "At present, the income from cotton spinning is not only to support our various financial and wage expenditures, but also to support the livelihood of nearby herdsmen and farmers, as well as the vast majority of workers and women in the county, and I think this must be treated carefully." ”
Tie Jinqi said solemnly: "The textile machine is currently investing a lot of manpower in research, if the machine is successfully updated, the production efficiency and quality will be improved, to ensure that the outside of the fabric quality can be thrown off." ”
Wang Lanling said lightly: "The truth is indeed like this, but haven't you found out now?" The cotton spinning industry has become our main pillar! ”
"Once the outside blocks our market and uses administrative power to strictly control those merchants, then there will be no market for our huge goods, and no one will buy them."
"Although the population of Lanling County is large, but it can't digest the huge commodities we produce internally, think about it, who of those workers is willing to use cotton cloth instead of wages?"
"From the No. 1 cotton spinning factory to the 15 cotton spinning mill to be expanded this year, at least one million of the more than 6 million people in our county are engaged in cotton spinning-related work."
"Wool, cotton, textile machinery, cotton spinning transportation, cloth cutting and ironing, as large as cotton clothes, cotton shoes, carpets, curtains, and curtains, as small as cotton warm covers, insoles, socks with hot water bottles."
"I need to remind you that if the outside world really blocked the external market before we transformed, then we must have solved the problem through war, but to do so would be unjustified."
Wang Lanling glanced at the people attending the meeting, "I'm not afraid of war, the current empire is vulnerable, as long as I want to fight, I can win." ”
"However, the war of aggression is not the same as the war of defending the homeland and defending the country, and I have not yet thought about what kind of impact my decision will have if I do that, thirty or fifty years later."
At present, Wang Lanling has no stones to touch, and the situation of the two worlds is no longer the same.
Wang Lanling had no enemies who could threaten him, and no one sanctioned him.
Because there is no powerful enemy eyeing him, Wang Lanling does not need to hide and not preach his justice.
He has always been preaching his ideas everywhere.
In terms of strength, he has always done it, but the contest of ideas has always been "arrogant", completely ignoring anyone's face.
What should Wang Lanling's characteristic doctrine do when faced with the dilemma of insufficient resources?
He has always been in the name of benevolence and righteousness, when there are economic problems internally, does he retire peacefully and live a hard life, or choose to tear his face and kidnap the whole world?
Gong Yueman showed a contemplative look and asked, "Is the matter that serious now?" ”
He wasn't very sure, but Wang Lanling's gaze was different from theirs, and he had always been very advanced.
These people can't even think about things in a year or two, but Wang Lanling can clearly see the impact after a few decades.
Wang Lanling said: "At present, it is not serious, even if the market in Muzhou and Yunzhou is gone, the market in Shazhou, Yuzhou and Haizhou will not be greatly affected." ”
"The production of the factory needs to look at the market, not blindly expand."
"I've been expanding to the next few states just to prepare for this kind of economic problem."
Tong Yue and the others breathed a sigh of relief, since Wang Lanling has a way, everyone just needs to follow suit.
Chai Tuo said: "In the final analysis, our current territory is too small, and the three places of Shanhai County, Dumu County and Shazhou alone are completely insufficient. ”
Shanhainan retorted: "The county magistrate has always repeatedly explained our legitimacy, what is the difference between us going to fight other places and ordinary rebellions? ”
Tong Yue quickly said: "Why don't we have legitimacy? We're here to make the people out there live as well as we do! Besides, Shanhai County was also taken from the Jiang family, why can't he take some more? ”
Gong Yueman said: "It's different, here we have a mass base, and the people here believe in us, but other places are different, we rashly start a war, which will only make people think that we are invaders." ”
"I don't approve of the use of troops where it's not necessary, the reputation we've built up over several years can be ruined in a foreign war," he said. ”
Dian Ni said: "If you can buy it, don't fight." Now people in many places are facing us, and once we go to fight other people's hometowns, it will be difficult to say anything after that. ”
Everyone in the conference room expressed their opinions one after another, and most of them did not approve of the fight.
It's not that I'm afraid of failure, with Wang Lanling here, and hundreds of thousands of troops in Lanling County, everyone believes that they can take any state in the south.
However, Wang Lanling's ideological guidance over the years has still been effective, and everyone knows what the legitimacy and justice emphasized by Wang Lanling are.
Now everyone is worried about economic problems, because Lanling County is now facing more than just economic problems.
The real solution to this problem must be a core figure who holds great power and has economic, strategic, military, and political talents.
Nothing less is possible, less is the same, and if there is less of the same, you have to make concessions in some way.
Wang Lanling said: "It's been a few years, and the textile factories outside have also begun to exert their strength, whether to make money or not is one thing, and more problems are market problems." ”
"It's too complicated to say, dozens of pages of reports can't be written, and the impact is huge."
Wang Lanling took a sip of water, covered the tea lid and said: "My idea is to bring in the labor force of Yuzhou Yuanzhou and buy a part of the land through political negotiation after five years. ”
"Three years ago, I told Hu Zhong about a 10-year plan, which is to build a hydroelectric power station in 10 years to meet the daily needs of 10 million people."
"At present, the population of Shanhai County is more than 6.8 million, with more than 200,000 people over the age of 60, accounting for 3 percent, nearly 3 million people under the age of 14, accounting for 45 percent, and 3 million working people."
In this place of Shanhai County, the old man does not live long.
It should be said that in all dynasties, except for the good place of Longzhou, where people are outstanding, the old people in other places will not live long.
The population is mainly concentrated in the level of unmarried men and women, accounting for about 60 percent, and after that, they are basically those who can work.
"The current majority of births are between the ages of 17 and 35, and two million new people are expected to grow in the next seven years."
——————
Medical care and treatment have been improved, coupled with the current land and subsidies for children, the population is really explosive.
"The power plant is being built faster than I expected, and it is expected to be completed in another three to five years, so the 10-year plan is generally stable and close to the goal."
Wang Lanling summarized the past work, and at present, the immigrant population in Shanhai County is relatively stable, and the main population growth is the new population of the original immigrant population.
The first generation of immigrants liked to have children, which is an objective phenomenon.
"In view of the economic and demographic problems that we have at the moment, as well as the development problems that will arise in the future, I have decided to start moving closer to the next eight-year plan."
"In 20 years, we will double the size of our country!"
It's a good goal to accomplish, and if you win any state, you can exceed it.
But Wang Lanling obviously didn't want to do that, and he was currently in a daze.
He doesn't have a saying from ancient times, and not only that, but the relationship between the people of Muzhou and the rest of the places is not very good......
Wang Lanling is Wang Lanling, and the people of Muzhou are the people of Muzhou.
This is the land in Shanhai County since ancient times, Wang Lanling has already occupied everything that can be occupied, and now if he wants to occupy territory outside, it will be an invasion.
Especially in the neighboring states, they don't want to fight with Wang Lanling, unless Wang Lanling makes up his own excuses, otherwise he is really unknown.
It is true that there are people in various places who have a good impression of Wang Lanling, but the vast majority of people will definitely not welcome Wang Lanling to their doorstep with a large army.
There is no model to learn from!
The Soviet model is also unreliable, and now the outside states do not mean to ally with Wang Lanling, and most of the states remain neutral and still belong to the Yanlong State.
It is necessary to maintain justice, but also want to be the boss and expand the territory.
Thinking about it, he could only expect Yanlong Kingdom to take the initiative to beat him.
However, now that the political struggle in Yanlong Country is becoming more and more acute and fierce, he has no heart to deal with Wang Lanling at all.
It's too hard to be a good person......
