Chapter 244: The Great Duke is Selfless
If the port city wants to develop, it cannot be separated from the strong support of the economic hinterland, otherwise the port conditions are superior, and it is difficult to have a better development ceiling.
For example, the port of Maputo in Mozambique has quite good natural conditions, and Maputo is located in the southern mouth of the Mozambique Channel, which is strategically located. As a result, the Portuguese established a colonial base in Maputo, which gradually became the capital of Portuguese Mozambique.
However, this port city of Portugal for 100 years has been overtaken by the port of New Hamburg in a very short period of time, and quickly opened the gap.
Because the East African investment in the Port of New Hamburg is certainly key, but the economic hinterland of the city of New Hamburg includes the Southern Frontier, Lorraine, the southern Matabele, and the provinces of New Württemberg (formerly the Zulu Kingdom, the Transvaal Republic, southern Zimbabwe, Botswana, and the British Bechuana).
In this way, the direct gap between the three ports is reflected, and in the future, Maputo will have to bow down in front of the new port of Hamburg if it is not annexed to East Africa.
Therefore, the development of port cities in East Africa is inseparable from the support of inland cities, and in turn, port cities also import the necessary conditions for development such as capital, technology, and manpower into the interior.
As for the conflict of interests, there are not so many bad things in East Africa at present, after all, East Africa does provide a way out for immigrants from Eurasia, which is basically in line with psychological expectations, as a big government country, the development of East African countries is inseparable from the guidance of the dictatorial and authoritarian government led by Ernst.
This is in line with the requirements of the people in East Africa, and they wish that the government would take care of it and that, because before they came to East Africa, more than ninety percent of them were feudal peasants who were digging in the land, and they had no own opinions, so let them manage the country by themselves.
While Claire and others were self-isolating, the East African government was not really laissez-faire, and the city of Gruusegen was also discussing the epidemic in the village of Rottinader.
The total population of the urban area of Grushegen is more than 1,300 people, and there are seven villages of all sizes below.
Therefore, Claire, the director of the city's Center for Disease Control and Prevention, is considered to be a high authority, otherwise he would not have suffered twice from the east to the west, he has seen the development of East Africa, so he is also very optimistic about the development potential of the west.
"Mayor, this is a letter sent back by Director Claire, we have disinfected the letter, you should see the specific content for yourself."
Mogwell, the mayor of Grussegen, took Claire's letter and read it carefully.
After a moment's pause, he spoke, "Director Claire has already said that the village of Lovinard is in good condition at the moment, and there is no sign of the epidemic spreading, but to be on the safe side, he will stay there for a while, so that we can get ready." ”
"Mayor, are we going to lock down the village of Rottinader?"
"There is no need for a blockade, if the village of Rottwinade is really not controlled, then it is better to say, isn't there a guarantee from Director Claire now? He had a lot of experience in the east, so just take his advice. ”
However, Mogwell changed his tone and said: "Of course, we can't do nothing, so send two policemen to the village of Rottinard to guard the road to the city, and if someone really runs over without permission, we can notify the city in time." ”
"Mayor, isn't there a little bit of a small number of people?"
"I naturally consider this, our city has a small population, the police force is not sufficient, and I also sent two police officers to Rowenade Village to command, if there are enough personnel, I definitely want to block Rovenade Village first, so how much ability, how big things, we can send two people to monitor it."
"Alas, that's what I'm saying, we haven't been in Grusegen for a long time, and we lack everything, especially the population, if there are more people, so it's better to say that you are the mayor, and you can take our Grusegen City to prosperity in this situation."
"Don't be afraid of sycophants, I know how many pounds and taels I have, my task is to draw a scoop according to the gourd, and discover Grushegan City according to the model of other regions, as for you, I will remember the merits, and I will punish you if you make mistakes, if you really want to develop well in the future, put away your careful thoughts, and honestly solve the problems of Grushsegan City."
"Mayor, what you're teaching you are."
"By the way, the problem of rations and materials in Rottwinade Village cannot be ignored, now the first phase of grain has not been harvested, we still have to rely on the provincial dispatch to prepare the part of Rottinad Village, as the saying goes, there is food in hand, do not panic, now the people of Rottwinard Village are determined to continue to let them stay in the village honestly."
"Straight to the village of Rottinader?"
"Didn't you design the material receiving station in the first place? Pack your things up, and don't let the beasts run away. ”
East Africa is also a long-term illness, quite experienced in dealing with the epidemic, the material receiving station was designed in advance, in fact, it is a small house in the middle of the village of Rottinard to the city of Grussengan, which is not usually used, and this one is used when there is an epidemic.
"By the way, every time you go, remember to do a good job of disinfection, especially the material receiving station, and don't be careless."
"Got it, mayor, do you have any other orders?"
Mogwell thought about it carefully, and it really reminded him of one thing, he said: "I almost forgot, Director Claire mentioned in the letter before, the cause of this epidemic is most likely caused by the killing and eating of wild animals, this group of people is really disobedient, we told them at the beginning, animals in East Africa cannot be disposed of at will, and now it's okay, not to mention losing our lives, and leaving us with a mess." ”
"It's just that we really don't take the government's words seriously, and when we encounter problems, we still have to deal with them in the end." The subordinate hurriedly followed Mogwell's words.
"Well, this shows that our propaganda work is not in place, otherwise it is very likely that this incident can be avoided, so well, it just happened that this kind of thing happened in Rottwinade Village, and we will take Rottwinade Village as a typical example to carry out a publicity and education in the whole city, so that they know that there are no rules that are set up casually for no reason, and there is no law."
"Yes, Mayor, but is that what the villages down there are arranged?"
"Well, in addition to the current Rottweird Village, other villages, as long as they are in our city, will carry out this education, as for Rottwinard Village, I believe that with this lesson, they also feel the most profoundly, eating a trench and growing wisdom, which is better than any education."
Mogwell thought for a while and then said: "There is also the province, after the end of this epidemic, report the work, what is there, what to write, don't think about fooling, we can do our own work." ”
"This ......"
"I'm not worried, what are you afraid of, even if something goes wrong, I am also the first person in charge, and besides, the reason for this epidemic is not necessarily that our work has gone wrong, and our follow-up work is also in place."
"Mayor, or your selfless ......"
