Australia, the southern capital of Sydney. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Li Weiguo took a family of more than 500 people on vacation here, and it is expected that he will return after the cold winter in the northern hemisphere.

At this time, Wuhan was carrying out large-scale real estate development and construction, and real estate giants from all over the country have invested billions of yuan to build the imperial palace, the parliament building, the yamen of the official offices of the three provinces and six ministries at all levels, and the new official residences of civil and military officials for the Chinese imperial government.

The local people in Wuhan beat gongs and drums to celebrate warmly, because the imperial court moved the capital to Wuhan and changed Wuhan into the great Kyoto of the Chinese Empire, which made Wuhan's land price continue to rise, and the people got a huge amount of demolition money, and tens of thousands of local tyrants who got rich overnight, 10,000 households, and millionaires are countless.

You must know that in the Chinese Empire, the quality of life of a family of 10,000 yuan is equivalent to that of a family with an annual salary of one million in later generations.

This is only the direct beneficiary group, due to the construction everywhere, the wages of workers have surged, the surrounding areas provide a variety of tools, materials businessmen are also making a lot of money, all kinds of catering, transportation, daily necessities and other enterprises and private business boom, extra million new jobs, especially to promote the economic development of the central region.

In fact, by the time of the Chinese Empire's current economic aggregate and industrial development scale, there was already a vague situation of overproduction.

On more than one occasion, Li Weiguo received information from various departments that due to the growing antagonism between the Entente and the Allied bloc, the economic and trade exchanges between the two sides began to be affected, and the Entente countries vigorously banned and made it difficult to import materials from the Allied countries, which virtually affected the export trade of the Chinese Empire.

You must know how terrible the industrial production capacity of the Chinese Empire is, so many industrial products, once external trade is affected, the products are unsalable, and it is easy to cause an economic crisis.

Of course, Li Weiguo did not want an economic crisis to break out in the Chinese Empire, but fortunately, the state system and political system of the Chinese Empire were different from the parliamentary and cabinet systems of Europe and the United States, and had unique advantages in macroeconomic regulation and control.

Therefore, after Li Weiguo discovered this situation, he began to expand domestic demand to continue to stimulate economic growth and offset the impact of the contraction of foreign trade.

The relocation of the capital is actually a large-scale investment behavior, a large-scale direct investment in the central region.

At present, the economic development level of the Chinese Empire is most developed in the southeast coastal areas, which is directly related to Li Weiguo's earliest management of the area south of the Yangtze River, but the northern latecomers prevail, because almost all the heavy industries of the Chinese Empire are concentrated in the northern region.

The central and western regions are developing more slowly, and this time the capital of the Chinese Empire was moved directly to Wuhan, which is the Central Plains, connecting the east, west, north and south, which is just in line with the expansion of domestic demand in the Chinese Empire, and the transfer of economic center of gravity and productivity to the central and western regions, which continues to drive the country's economic growth.

The construction of the country's new capital is in full swing.

Sydney, as one of the eight major capitals of the Chinese Empire, is also undergoing large-scale construction.

Li Weiguo nominally came to Sydney for a vacation to escape the cold, but in fact, as a qualified emperor, every step of his journey was of strategic significance and important purpose.

In Australia, with Liu Mingchuan's iron-blooded suppression, the resistance forces supported by the Entente bloc were almost wiped out, and the remaining Australians became good citizens of the Chinese Empire.

There is still a certain difference between this good citizen and the citizens of the Chinese Empire, and it will take time to prove that these good citizens of the white and black races will have a sense of belonging to the Chinese Empire before they will become real citizens of the Chinese Empire.

Liu Mingchuan's suppression in Australia was too ruthless and bloody, and for a while he would even rather kill 10,000 by mistake than let go of an enemy.

This is not the 21st century, where even the Holocaust cannot be accurately recorded by history, and once the government deliberately blocks public opinion, it will not be known to its own people, and it will be even more difficult for the people of the world to know the details, and they will often forget it quickly.

Liu Mingchuan did a very good job in this regard, not only to bloodily suppress the white rebellion, but also to prevent international public opinion from discovering it, and even the Entente bloc shouted all day long about the atrocities of the Chinese Empire's Australian Army, but could not produce favorable evidence, in front of international public opinion, he was laughed at, and the people of the whole world thought that this was just the Entente bloc deliberately attacking and smearing the Chinese Empire, which made the Entente bloc very sad and difficult to argue.

However, the white community in Australia deeply felt the horror of Liu Mingchuan, did not dare to discuss current affairs and politics, and hated Liu Mingchuan.

And the arrival of Li Weiguo is to be a good man.

The white terror that Liu Ming brought to the Australians brought bitter resentment, and Li Weiguo was the opposite, he came to show grace.

First of all, Li Weiguo exempted Australians from paying taxes for three years.

You must know that Australians are not official citizens of the Chinese Empire now, and the proportion of taxes paid is much higher than that of the citizens of the Chinese Empire, and there is even a poll tax.

Li Weiguo's announcement of a three-year tax waiver has greatly reduced the burden of living on Australians and made them grateful.

In history, the Qing army Yangzhou Massacre, Jiading Massacre, and Sichuan Massacre killed millions of Han people, but Kangxi only exempted these places from taxes for three years, and as a result, he won the cheers and love of the local people, and even the people in other places thought that Kangxi was a good emperor from then on, and directly forgot about the hatred.

This is the common people, the real people, the common people who only care about their immediate interests.

Li Weiguo exempted Australians from paying taxes for three years and immediately won a good reputation.

At the same time, Li Weiguo ordered to stop the White Terror, stop arresting suspects, and stop implicating innocent people.

Among them, the system of protecting armor and sitting has completed its historical mission, and with the stability of Australian society, the system of protecting armor and sitting is bound to be abolished.

Li Weiguo canceled the system of armor protection and joint sitting in a timely manner, and naturally won the gratitude of the Australians again.

Next, Li Weiguo announced the expansion of the scale of Australia's economic construction, announcing that the Chinese Imperial Government would invest 2 billion yuan in Australia for the development, production and processing of Australia's agriculture, animal husbandry and mining resources.

The move will provide 800,000 jobs in Australia and significantly improve the living standards of Australians.

For the common people of Australia, when their lives are stable, they have jobs, and their wages under the rule of the Chinese Empire are high, then they will be at ease, at least they will not make trouble anymore.

However, while Li Weiguo has won the popularity of Australia, he is also promoting the policy of de-Westernization of Australia and the centralization of Australia.

Li Weiguo promised to implement nine-year compulsory education in Australia, and Australians have the opportunity to complete junior high school courses and get graduation certificates, which makes Australians very happy.

You must know that even when the British Empire ruled, Australia was a penal colony for criminals, and the level of education was very low, all of which were the preserve of the aristocracy, and it was difficult for ordinary people to obtain education.

And what does it mean to be a new Chinese?

In this era, for Australians, a level of initial Chinese is actually equivalent to the treatment of college students when China was just liberated in later generations, which is a senior talent in the eyes of Australians.

When Li Weiguo announced that Australia would also implement nine-year compulsory education, all Australians were boiling, and they were extremely cheering and unprecedented support for the new emperor in their hearts.

However, they didn't know that the nine-year compulsory education implemented by Li Weiguo was mainly Chinese, English was not taught at all, and all Australians had to start learning Chinese.

Fortunately, the Chinese Empire has occupied Australia for many years, Australians know more or less some daily Chinese, as a large number of Chinese move to Australia, Chinese is becoming more and more popular, and Australians don't care whether they learn Chinese or English, for them, there is value and interest will learn, and Chinese in this era, has become an international hit, learning Chinese means having a good job, and even can go to the mainland of the Chinese Empire to find a better job in the future.

White people only value profit in their bones, so they accept this very calmly.

Of course, there are also some Australians who resolutely resist, and they call on Australians not to believe in Li Weiguo's hypocrisy and not to be deceived by Li Weiguo.

But after all, they are only a few people, the whole public opinion is beneficial to the Chinese Empire, they can't set off the wind and waves at all, as Australians recognize Li Weiguo more and more, feel that Li Weiguo is a good emperor, these people have no room to play, and finally either run away in disgrace, or are arrested and imprisoned by the Chinese Imperial Police on various charges, and the entire Australian society has become more and more harmonious.

First Liu Mingchuan was the bad guy, and then Li Weiguo was the good guy, and the two of them staged a ten-year-long double reed play, which finally eradicated the hostile forces in Australia, completely incorporated Australia into the territory of the Chinese Empire, assimilated the Australians, and made them recognize themselves as the new identity of nationals of the Chinese Empire.

Li Weiguo's trip to Australia, in addition to establishing the image of a good emperor for Australians, has many important things to do.

Economically, two billion yuan has been invested in Australia, which is a huge amount of money, and there is no room for error.

At present, under the situation that the industrial output of the Chinese Empire is surplus and the total amount of foreign trade is shrinking, it is the most important thing to stimulate domestic demand to digest the excess production capacity, once something goes wrong, I am afraid that it will detonate the economic crisis of the Chinese Empire, which will be very terrifying, and the Chinese Empire will suffer heavy losses at the light level, and shake the fundamental rule of the Chinese Empire at the worst.

In this regard, Li Weiguo has never been sloppy.

With a huge investment in Australia, Li Weiguo focused on the development of mineral resources.

Australia has developed agriculture, animal husbandry, and abundant mineral resources, so Li Weiguo will focus his funds on Australia's agricultural construction, build water conservancy, expand the cultivated area, and increase grain production.

In terms of animal husbandry, Australia is known as a country of sheep, and there are cattle and sheep everywhere!

Li Weiguo continued to promote animal husbandry, and at the same time set up a large number of textile factories in Australia, processing meat into canned food and wool into wool, which were then shipped to the Chinese Empire and other vassal states to be sold, and then purchased back to their own daily necessities and industrial products.

For this reason, Li Weiguo deliberately stopped setting up large-scale heavy industry and light industry in Australia, the purpose of which was to produce complementarity, so that Australia could not be separated from the mainland, and form a large cycle of commodity exchange, so that it would be a complete national economic development system.

Therefore, in terms of mining development, Li Weiguo only set up mineral mining and preliminary processing in Australia, and then shipped back to the mainland of the Chinese Empire for further processing and manufacturing of finished products.

At the same time, in terms of mining, in addition to high-quality iron ore, which is a necessary raw material for the iron and steel industry of the Chinese Empire, Li Weiguo also focused on sending people to explore Australia's diamond mines.

Li Weiguo knows that Australia will be the world's largest supplier of diamonds in the future, and there are huge diamond mineral resources buried in the western mountains of Australia.

In Li Weiguo's memory, the Argyle Diamond Mine is the largest diamond mine in the world, located in the Argyle Mountains in western Australia.

It's just that Li Weiguo didn't have the opportunity to go to that place in his later generations, so he could only send more than a dozen exploration teams to explore in the Argyle Mountains.

The Argyle Mountains are very large, and at the beginning more than a dozen exploration teams encountered problems, because their theoretical knowledge was limited, and the current diamond deposits in the world belong to placer mines.

Among them, the representative is the kimberlite deposit in Orange, South Africa, which is transported away from the primary ore by natural factors such as rivers, glaciers, and floods after weathering and denudation, forming secondary placers. Less hard minerals and lower quality diamonds are broken up during the transport of rock chips, while harder and tougher minerals and high-quality diamonds are retained, enriching in the middle and lower reaches of rivers, coastal and offshore continental shelves to form diamond placers.

This is the world's only theory of diamond exploration, and more than a dozen exploration teams have initially used this theory to search for the Argyle Mountains, but have found nothing.

All the members of the exploration team, who wanted to give up many times, thought that there could be no diamond deposits in the Argyll Mountains.

However, since this matter was assigned by Li Weiguo, out of respect for His Majesty the Emperor, they had to persevere.

At first, Li Weiguo didn't pay attention, thinking that he would be able to find it soon, but there was no news for a long time, and Li Weiguo immediately called the relevant officials for questioning, and then he knew the truth.

Li Weiguo thought about it and suddenly realized that the Argyle diamond mine is a very special vein, and he does not belong to the category of placer mines, but a rare potash and magnesium porphyry barrel in the world. The rock layer in which this diamond mine is located is an ultramafic potassium-rich rock that is formed in the deep part of the earth at high temperature and pressure, and then invades from the mantle to the earth, forming a cone-shaped rock tube near the surface, characterized by volcanic eruptions and volcanic breccia (angular fragments) in the rock tube.

As a result, Li Weiguo expressed his views to the officials in charge and the experts of the exploration team.

Although the experts were also very surprised, out of respect for the emperor, they had to do it even if they didn't believe it in their hearts.

Not to mention, they quickly found several hilly areas formed by volcanic eruptions in Mount Argyle according to Li Weiguo's description, and then drilled a drill bit, and after reaching the depth of normal diamond veins, they found associated minerals suitable for diamond production.

So the mining team was overjoyed, and hurriedly accelerated the survey around it, and it didn't take long to mine the first diamond, and it was an extremely rare pink diamond.

They presented a few pink diamonds to Li Weiguo, and Li Weiguo was immediately happy, knowing that he had guessed correctly, this was indeed the Argyle Diamond Mine, because only here produced the rarest pink diamonds in the world.

Li Weiguo gave a few pink diamonds to the queen and a few favorite concubines, and the result immediately caused strong dissatisfaction among the other concubines, and the whole was nagging and grinding his teeth in Li Weiguo's ear.

A week later, the miners finally mined another batch of pink diamonds, although the particles were smaller, but some were better than nothing, and quickly sent people to Sydney, Li Weiguo distributed these pink diamonds to the concubines, and finally calmed them.

However, Li Weiguo still secretly gave the best three of the largest pink diamonds to his three queens.

For Li Weiguo, the three queens are his wives, and no one can replace their status in Li Weiguo's heart, even the most favored concubines Li and Concubine Ying recently.

When the other concubines saw it, they were only envious, but it was difficult to rise a trace of jealousy, and they only hoped that they would be able to enjoy this treatment one day in the future.

Li Weiguo is of course very happy to have found the world's largest diamond mine in Australia in the future, this is a huge amount of wealth! Enough for the Chinese Empire to squander for quite a long time!

However, Li Weiguo also thought of another place rich in diamonds.

South Africa, currently under the control of the British Empire, was an important source of finance for the British Empire.

"How long can the British Empire hold out if South Africa is cut off from its financial resources?"

Thinking of this, Li Weiguo suddenly smiled. (To be continued.) )
