Chapter 138: Giving and Reaping
[The author of the data in the article is very headache, and it took several hours to check the information before writing this chapter, and he was depressed and .....]
According to statistics, in 1887, the gross domestic product of the Han Kingdom reached 620 million taels of silver, of which the agricultural output value was 370 million taels of silver and the industrial output value was 130 million taels of silver. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
You can't see anything from simple data, but if you compare it with other countries in the world, you can find the great changes in the Han Kingdom.
In '87, the gross domestic product of the United States was 13.7 billion US dollars, or 9 billion taels of silver, about 15 times that of the Han Kingdom.
The overall industrial output value of the Han Kingdom (including the Yan industry) is close to that of Tsarist Russia, which means that the industrial output value of the Han Kingdom accounts for nearly 4 percent of the world, and at the same time, the industrial output value of the Han Kingdom is not even 1 percent.
The steel output of the Han Kingdom alone has reached 950,000 tons in 87 years, ranking fourth in the world, the first United States produces 3.4 million tons of steel, the second Britain produces 3.1 million tons of steel, the third Germany produces 1.68 million tons of steel, and the fifth France produces only 490,000 tons of steel, in fact, the steel production capacity of the Han Kingdom has expanded to 1.1 million tons in 87 years.
Just a steel industry, the value can not be imagined, you can imagine how huge the heavy industry controlled by the Yan family, if you count this part, I am afraid that the GDP of the Han Kingdom will exceed 1 billion.
In 87, the financial revenue of the Han Kingdom was 65 million taels of silver, compared with 84 million taels of silver in the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
The former only controls the land of four provinces and one province, while the latter rules an area of more than 10 million square kilometers, but the gap between the two financial revenues is less than 20 million taels of silver, which can be seen.
This is the result of the four years of efforts of the Han Kingdom, and it is also where Yan Xueyi's confidence lies in overthrowing the Manchu Qing and defeating the foreign powers.
However, don't only see the harvest, but not the Yan family's contribution, only with the annual financial income of tens of millions of taels of silver of the Han Kingdom, it will not be able to support the rapid development of the economy of the Han Kingdom.
The tens of millions of wealth accumulated by the Yan family in ten years, an immeasurable Yuanhe City, and hundreds of millions of taels of silver secretly transferred back to Yuanhe City by Yan's money villages all over the Manchu Qing Dynasty, this is the capital of the Yan family.
Yan Xueyi took out all this wealth and used it to develop the economy of the Han Kingdom, which led to the take-off of the economy of the Han Kingdom today.
A huge amount of silver can indeed promote the economic development of the Han Kingdom, but the foundation for the rapid development of the Han Kingdom is Yuanhe City, an industrial city that Yan Xueyi spent ten years to build.
Four years have passed, and the harvest season has arrived.
In 87 years, the financial income of the Han Kingdom has reached 65 million taels of silver, but the net income of Yan Xueyi's private property Yan's Commercial Bank has exceeded the financial income of the Han Kingdom, reaching 73 million taels of silver.
No matter how much money there is, it's just a number, and the proceeds of the Yan Merchant Bank will eventually be invested in the Han Kingdom.
Changes in the kingdom of the Han Dynasty, violent. Exposed in the eyes of all forces.
Foreign forces feel very incredible about the development of the Han Kingdom, how can such a Manchu inland province be blocked by hundreds of thousands of Manchu regiments, how can there be such a big change.
Look at the concrete roads that extend in all directions and the railroads that are about to be built, which are rare in Western countries, how can they appear in a province of the decaying and backward Manchu Dynasty?
There are also factories all over the Han Kingdom, although the industrial development has not caught up with the United Kingdom, the United States, Germany and other industrially developed countries, but the industrial development of the Han Kingdom has far surpassed the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Yueben and other relatively backward countries.
Regarding the earth-shaking changes in the Han Kingdom, the Western powers believed that there was a country behind it, and if there was no other country behind it, how could the Han Kingdom develop so rapidly?
It is a pity that the Western powers, no matter how much it costs, have not found the "mastermind behind it".
The British are already guessing whether only 100,000 Beiyang Army can wipe out this Han Kingdom, and once it can't be eliminated, but the Manchus are wiped out by the Han Kingdom, then there will be a big problem.
The British were not at all afraid of the backward and decaying Manchu Qing Dynasty, but in a country with an industrial base and a large population, the British did not want to provoke too much.
After all, Britain is the hegemon of the seas, not the land.
Once the Manchus could not destroy the Han Kingdom, all countries would directly send troops to help the Manchus as they had done when they destroyed the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, resolutely eliminate the Han Kingdom, and destroy its industry by the way.
In this regard, Yan Xueyi expressed disdain, for more than four years, the military strength of the Han Kingdom is not the same, you must know that the huge income of the Yan family is not only used to develop heavy industry, but also a considerable part of the military strength.
