Section 441 Sub-economic centers

Thanks to miaoge, extinct stars, moon cold ^ ruthless, and today's brother's monthly pass, there are still two more left. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Thanks for the tip of the lonely brother. It seems that verse 440 is misplaced. When you look at it, turn it back and look at it, otherwise it may be incoherent.

The Nanyang problem was solved, as if a dead knot had been untied, Australia could immigrate more people, and Brazil's rubber plantation industry began to start.

Under Yang Chao's layout, the Chinese sphere of influence is still infiltrating in an orderly manner, not showing mountains and water, like grass growing, but they have the determination and perseverance to open the big rock.

The British were also extremely satisfied, and after letting go of their hegemonic mind, they focused on economic interests, and the development of the Malayan colony was also beneficial to them, and at the same time, they cooperated with Yang Chao, whether it was the British government or the Rothschilds, they all had their own benefits.

The British government got the pound stable, Rothschild got 1,000 tons of gold, and couldn't wait to issue the first loan to Germany to pay the British reparations, but they soon couldn't laugh, because the German monetary system collapsed a year later, and Rothschild was trapped.

This is all an afterthought, after Yang Chao concentrated on dealing with a large number of things, he immediately returned to Siberia, Jin Xuehui's belly has been eight months old, round and round.

Yang Chao quietly accompanied her for ten days before returning to Yishi, but he didn't expect that a person was already waiting here.

Mi Qing.

She came to Russia on behalf of the local government of Guangdong to discuss the issue of economic cooperation, and after Mi Qing left the presidency, she did not withdraw from politics, but returned to Guangdong, and in her capacity it was easy to seek the position of minister of economic development in the provincial capital, and she said in a high-profile manner that she would help the development of her hometown.

What is she doing in Yishi, and what economic relationship can Guangzhou have with Siberia?

She came to find Yang Chao.

After Yang Chao came back, he met with Olga together, and as the former president of Mi Qing, it was not a bargain for the Russian tsaress to meet in person.

After the official meeting, Mi Qing suddenly asked to see Yang Chao in private, and the two met in Yang Chao's territory, a secret office building of Yangzi Mining.

"What have you been doing these days?"

The first sentence of the meeting Mi Qing asked.

Yang Chao's face did not change: "I am dealing with some problems in Beijing, you should know, I sent Zaifeng away." ”

Yang Chao sent Zaifeng away, this matter is not a secret, the newspaper evaluation is still relatively positive, many people think that Yang Chao is affectionate and righteous, and arranged a good home for Zaifeng, did not let the nationalists persecute the emperor of the previous dynasty, and the old and young of the Manchurian people also praised it.

This is also a political act that is a plus.

Mi Qing didn't buy it: "Of course I know, I also know that you left ten days ago, otherwise why did I come so early, who knew that I couldn't see you when I arrived in Yishi, saying that you haven't come back yet." These ten days must be where to go to meet the lover, right? ”

Yang Chao smiled: "Aren't you my lover." ”

As he spoke, the two became entangled.

"It's time for you to think about getting married, right?"

After some lingering, Yang Chao sighed.

Mi Qing said: "Why? ”

Yang Chao sighed: "If you don't marry again, you should be old." ”

Mi Qing was already in his twenties when he returned to China, and now he is thirty-five years old, entering middle age, no matter what era's standards, it should be the age to get married and have children.

Mi Qing snorted: "You dislike my old Zhuhuang, right?" ”

Yang Chao smiled: "How can there be! ”

Mi Qing's skin is indeed not as elastic as it used to be, Yang Chao thought in his heart.

Mi Qing snorted: "Hypocrisy. ”

Yang Chao sneered.

Mi Qing was not angry: "Sooner or later, I'm going to get old." But I'm not going to get married. When hell freezes over. ”

Yang Chao sighed: "If you don't marry, you won't marry, it's up to you." It's a big deal, I'm raising you. ”

Mi Qing sneered: "That's what you said?" No repentance! ”

Yang Chao was stunned: "Do you mean it really?" ”

Mi Qing said: "Of course. ”

Yang Chao said: "How to raise?" ”

Mi Qing chuckled: "Of course I took the money to raise it." ”

Yang Chao understood: "Oh, it turns out that you are asking for money, how much do you want?" ”

Mi Qing spoke: "It's not much, one billion taels is enough." ”

Yang Chao snorted: "What are you kidding, one billion taels!" What are you doing? ”

Mi Qing said: "Of course I'm doing the right thing." ”

Yang Chao said: "What's the matter?" ”

"Does economic development count?"

Then Yang Chao understood that Mi Qing wanted to invest in Guangdong, and she was eager to improve Guangdong's economic level, after all, this is her base, Guangdong is her biggest political support, and serving here will help improve the loyalty of the people in her hometown.

Therefore, she wants Yang Chao to invest one billion taels in Guangdong to stimulate Guangdong's economic development as soon as possible, not to be comparable to Shanghai and Shandong, at least not to lag too far behind, at least to keep in line with Jiangsu and other places, and have the opportunity to catch up with the Northeast.

Yang Chao stopped talking, didn't put on clothes, and walked around the bedroom.

Mi Qing didn't bother him, she knew that Yang Chao was thinking about the problem, which didn't seem like a refusal, I was afraid that she was thinking about how to help Guangdong develop.

In fact, the development of Guangdong in recent years is not backward, as the only window to the outside world in the Manchu Dynasty, the people of Guangdong are more open-minded than other places, the vision is also broader, and the connection with foreign countries is closer, otherwise this place would not become the holy land of the Paoge Revolution.

Therefore, after the social stability in recent years, the enthusiasm of Guangdong people to invest in modern industries is still very high, but it is limited to the lack of strong capital, and most of them are concentrated in small industries, such as the silk reeling industry, silk weaving industry, and cotton textile industry that have a certain scale in the past, and these light industries are now developing better in Shanghai, and Guangdong obviously cannot compete with Shanghai.

Guangdong's development conditions are undoubted, so that Guangdong has a vast hinterland, water transport can be directly connected to Guangxi, the Guangdong-Hanzhou Railway has made Hunan also become the hinterland of Guangdong, the Shanghai-Guangzhou Railway makes Jiangxi without access to the sea The best sea base is also Guangdong, coupled with the excellent water system of the Pearl River, the sea ship can be directly connected to Guangzhou along the coast, and the freight is extremely low in the vast area of the Pearl River Delta covered by the Pearl River.

In fact, without intervention, the people of Guangdong are indeed developing slowly, but the timing is a big problem, Guangdong has missed the best opportunity for development, and they are now a little late, which makes their favorable conditions can not be fully brought into play.

Heavy industry Shandong and Northeast China make other places have no chance at all, that is, Shanghai is now barely able to compete with one or two, and in light industry, Shanghai has not yet eaten, Shandong's light industry is also strong, before the industrial transfer of these two places, Yang Chao can not see the opportunity for great development in Guangdong.

If Guangdong is not the most ferocious, it will stabilize and develop slowly as soon as possible, so that it will not be completely unable to keep up with the pace of Shanghai and Shandong.

But the importance of Guangdong cannot be ignored, this place has developed, can affect Guangxi, even Yunnan and Guizhou and other southwestern regions, but also can drive inland provinces such as Hunan and Jiangxi. In short, this is a natural economic center, and if its development is curbed, the southwest and Hunan and Jiangxi will naturally be contained.

It is not unreasonable that the three major economic centers along China's coast in later generations were the Bohai Bay in the north with Beijing and Tianjin as the center, the Yangtze River basin with Shanghai as the center, and the south with Guangdong as the center.

Now the economic status of Beijing and Tianjin in the north has been replaced by Shandong, Shandong's economic influence can cover the northeast, Beijing and Tianjin, and even outside the Guan, Shanghai along the Yangtze River, can already affect Sichuan, but Guangdong in the southeast region has not developed, and at the same time, the southwest and Hunan and Jiangxi and other inland areas, the current development is indeed not very good.

"It must be trade-oriented!"

Yang Chao turned around for half an hour before he finally spoke.

Mi Qing nodded hurriedly, people from the Rich and Strong Party have long been accustomed to listening to Yang Chao's wonderful opinions, even if they don't understand, they will be proved wrong in the end, they don't know that Yang Chao sometimes borrows the truth that later generations have explored with the lessons of blood, which has been formulated by countless elites and proven through practice.

Guangdong is undoubtedly the best outlet to the sea in the southeast, Fujian has many mountains and a small hinterland, and it is difficult to access the neighboring provinces, so it is obviously impossible to serve as a shipping center, but Guangdong has a water system that is abundant more than the Yellow River and is second only to the Yangtze River, and 5,000 tons of sea ships can go directly to Guangzhou, and 20,000 tons of sea ships can go to Huangpu (Huangpu District, Guangzhou).

There are 1,088 navigable rivers, including 79 major waterways, with a navigable mileage of 7,000 kilometers. The channel for ships of 1,000 tons is more than 700 kilometers long, and the channel for ships of 300 to 500 tons is nearly 1,000 kilometers.

These natural rivers are the best transportation base, and they are better than building a hundred railways, because the cost of shipping is always much cheaper than that of trains.

"Guangzhou is stuck in the critical position of the Pearl River, and the reason for the emergence of this city is because of the cargo consolidation, so he is naturally a material distribution center, and the development of shipping is the first priority. What the government should do is to improve the infrastructure, and the first thing is to build a seaport, a good seaport. ”

It is not too easy to build a good port at the mouth of the Pearl River. Later generations of Zhuhai, Shenzhen, Zhongshan and other super ports, not only because of the proximity to Hong Kong and Macao to develop, but also need their own hardness, their own conditions are also very important.

"The location of the port doesn't even need to be bothered to choose, the foreigners have been trading here for 80 years after the war, and the place suitable for building a port for trade has long been developed by itself."

At this time, although there are no particularly large ports in the Pearl River area, even the port facilities in Guangzhou and other places are also decades ago, but along the Pearl River there are many small and large ports, which have become a cargo distribution center, and the sailing ships are very lively.

"Therefore, Guangdong's most advantageous is shipping, and if it controls the right to speak in shipping, it will pinch the throat of commerce, and it will have the conditions to become an economic center and a commercial center. Although it is not as good as Shanghai, it is more than enough to be a sub-regional economic center, just like Chicago is better than New York. ”

Yang Chao concluded.

Yang Chao is indeed positioned in this way, building Guangdong into a secondary economic center and driving the development of the southeast and southwest. (To be continued.) )
