Tang Shaoyi said in a deep voice: "Jianzhi, now we look at all the world's powerful countries, almost every powerful country is the most economically developed place, is facing the sea area, as a port, there is a convenient 'traffic', convenient trade, with the port as the leader to radiate a large area to drive the development of the region, we can follow the example of the great powers, promote the development of our port!" ”

Zhan Tianyou on the side also said: "Not only that, but now the economy of various countries is booming, but also depends on the construction of railways, whether it is the United States, Britain and Germany, these countries have developed railway systems, and this railway system is still in rapid development, relying on the railway system, commodities can be quickly circulated, promote social and economic development, but where the social and economic development of the hub of 'traffic' must be at the forefront, I think we must also speed up the construction of the railway network!" ”

Zhang Yi nodded and said: "Shaochuan, Cheng, what you said is very reasonable, 'transportation' is the main artery of social and economic development, not only that, but also the military development also depends on the construction of railways and ports, which will be the key to our development in the next ten years!" ”

Zhang Yi continued: "First of all, we look at the trade port, in the north, our ports are actually not very many, can be used, mainly concentrated in the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea coast, I plan, in the next few years, start the construction of Jinzhou, Qinhuangdao, Tanggu, Tianjin and Yantai, Qingdao, Lianyungang and other seven seaports, as well as in Taiwan, but also to start the construction of Kaohsiung Port, eight ports, can become the leader of our social construction, of which Jinzhou Port, for the entire three eastern provinces, all the commodities of our three eastern provinces, All through the Golden State, transported to the world; Qinhuangdao, Tanggu and Tianjin, mainly for Zhili and Shanxi; Yantai Qingdao for Shandong, Lianyungang for Jiangsu, Henan, Anhui, the future goods of several provinces will be continuously transported through these ports! ”

Tang Shaoyi said excitedly: "Yes, as long as our ports are built and international capitalists are introduced to invest and build factories here, we will achieve a rapid development!" ”

Zhang Yi nodded and said: "These ports will be dominated by light processing industries, such as textile and other industries, at the same time, it is not enough to rely on these ports, because they are all on the coast, once we face war, then these ports will bear the brunt, facing the blockade and aggression of the enemy's navy, and now our comprehensive strength is not strong enough to resist all foreign enemies, so we also have to build inland national industrial clusters, and use our railway network to completely penetrate them, so that the port will be formed as the leader, The industrial dragon with the railway station as the skeleton will be the key to our take-off! ”

Zhan Tianyou laughed and said: "Hahaha, president, as you said, then we can do it in the future!" ”

Zhang Yi said with a smile: "Chengcheng, I'm afraid that our huge railway development plan will make you tired and vomit blood." [Ran^Text^Library] []. [774] [buy]. [com], latest chapter access:. [I love to read]"

Zhang Tianyou didn't care and said, "Vomiting blood? As long as our railway industry can develop as soon as possible and the railway network can be completed as soon as possible, I will vomit my heart out when I am tired, and I am willing! ”

Zhan Tianyou has been thinking about revitalizing the national railway industry all his life, and if he really can, he will die and die willingly.

Zhang Yi asked, "Cheng Cheng, do you have any plans?" ”

Zhan Tianyou Shen 'groaned' and said: "For the railway network, I have a rough plan for the national railway planning, that is, several vertical and horizontal, 'cross' fork operation, and finally form a big chessboard, our train is the carriage and horse artillery on the chessboard, can reach any corner of any China along the railway trunk line, now the south is still under the control of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, as far as North China is concerned, we want to build, in addition to the railway trunk network in the northeast, the first thing to do is to open from Lanzhou through Xi'an, The east-west arteries from Datong to Tianjin or Qinhuangdao, and from Xi'an to Lianyungang via Zhengzhou, these two railway lines will connect all the important cities in the east and west of our country, which can not only realize the rapid mobilization of troops, but also realize the mutual flow of goods; At the same time, there are the north-south arteries connecting Xuzhou from Shengjing to Beijing, as well as the arteries connecting Datong Zhengzhou from Baotou and Hohhot, and the arteries that will go straight to Wuchang in the future, plus the original trunk line from Baotou to Shengjing through Hohhot and the coastal railway line connecting various ports, we will form two vertical and three horizontal trunk line supports, once completed, then our country's prosperity will be just around the corner! ”

Liang Qichao frowned and said: "Brother Cheng, the cost of such a large-scale railway construction is huge, and it will be even more huge than the railway construction of the three eastern provinces!" When our country was first founded, could it afford such a huge project? ”

Zhan Tianyou pondered: "This railway plan, the total mileage will be more than 20,000 kilometers, each kilometer will invest thousands of taels of silver, the total cost will be more than 100 million taels of silver, it is indeed a huge cost, and our railway engineering team is also very lacking now, this plan is only afraid that it will be difficult to complete without more than ten years of hard work!" ”

Zhang Yi smiled and waved his hand, and replied: "Zhuoru, Cheng, don't be frightened by the difficulties in front of you, indeed, railway construction is a money-burning thing, that is a bottomless 'hole', but you must also realize that the annual benefits brought to us by the railway will also be extremely huge, our national industry will be greatly promoted, timely feedback to our finances, and the income on the railway is enough to fully meet our investment in the next ten years!" ”

Liang Qichao still has to say, Zhang Yi continued: "As for the problem of the shortage of workers in the railway industry, it is easy to solve, and the method I originally proposed to 'extract' and transfer the engineering troops in our army and supplement them to the railway is completely feasible. The power of the lean, do a few big things, moreover, the railway is also the lifeblood of our country, to maintain the security of the people, we can not let it go unchecked, the construction of several major trunk lines, we must control the hands of the country! ”

Tang Shaoyi on the side smiled bitterly: "Jianzhi, you are naturally bold, but several railway lines are being built at the same time, and the funds we need will be a sky-high price, but it is not what our current finances can afford, if all the funds are invested in this, our education, people's livelihood, national defense and other things will not be done?" ”
