Lord Harland.

Chapter 292 Annual Summary
In a short period of time, Harland's territory can only walk on two legs.

While letting the Institute of Chemical Engineering continue to do research and separate various extracts from coal tar, improve the condensation system and increase the efficiency of collecting coal tar.In addition, the planting of natural dyes cannot be delayed. After all, chemical dyes cannot be produced for a while, and dyed cloth made of natural dyes can avoid capital outflow.

There are 10,000+ free citizens in Harland Territory [-], many of whom have very high incomes.If the luxuries required by high-income groups are not met, it will only cause capital outflow.

At the end of the year, Li Cha once again summoned the civil servants of the territory to hold a financial meeting. The reason why he invited officials from other systems was mainly to let everyone have a comprehensive understanding of the development of the territory.

Last year, the Harland Territory increased its population by 23 people, and this year, about 7 people have flooded into the Territory.

There were 6000 refugees who came in because of the plague, 2 were serfs purchased at the Commodity Fair, and [-] were high-quality people who voluntarily migrated to the territory of Harland.

Not counting the population brought by natural reproduction, the influx of the population in the last two years has been 30 people, accounting for almost half of the total population.

According to the statistics of the civil affairs department this year, the territory of Harland already has a population of 66, and the birth rate this year is about 2%.Even if you don't buy contract slaves from outside, the natural growth population of Harland's territory will exceed [-].

In recent years, the Harland Territory has purchased 10,000+ serfs from the slave market, which is about a quarter of the slave trade market.Through Richard's hands, about 80 gold coins were sent to slave traders like the Duke of Guise.

Because of the strong demand in Harland's territory, the slave trade expanded by a quarter, surpassing the population tax and becoming the most important tax in the Duchy of Guise.

A large amount of income has been increased every year. Two years ago, the Duke of Guise expanded his army by [-], bought a large number of armored bows and arrows, and increased his weapons and equipment.

Due to the large influx of people, this year the Harland Territory has increased the intensity of land reclamation, reclaimed 40 mu of arable land, and successfully developed potash mines. The large-scale use of potash fertilizers has increased food production.

The annual grain output exceeded 22 tons, ushering in a bumper harvest.

However, 23 tons of these grains were produced by freedmen. The territory of Harland was close to 100 freedmen, and the land allocated to freedmen was more than [-] million mu, which already exceeded half of the total arable land.If it weren't for the fact that the freedmen planted a lot of cash crops, the proportion of food production would be even higher.

Despite the large increase in food production, there is still no surplus in agricultural production this year because of the large increase in population.

The livestock industry also suffered heavy losses due to a sudden plague. In the pastures under the official control of the Harland Territory, only 60 sheep were slaughtered throughout the year, and the production was reduced by about half.

The free people who raised sheep lost even more, because they had less capital and less ability to resist risks. When they encountered a sheep plague, the losses were almost unbearable.

According to statistics from the animal husbandry department, more than one million sheep may have died from the plague last year.

Such a heavy loss has greatly dampened the enthusiasm of the freemen to breed.

Before the plague, there were about 300 million sheep kept by the government and the people of the Harland Territory, and 300 million sheep could be slaughtered every year.When a plague came down, the stock and slaughter were all reduced by about half.

This is the case with the farming industry, and the risks are very high.

Cattle and sheep are already less plagued livestock, and the risk of raising chickens and pigs is higher. After a plague, the accumulation of farms for many years will be in vain.

Of the 60 sheep slaughtered, the army consumed 10,000+ sheep, and officials, researchers, teachers, and factory management consumed part of it, and only about two-thirds could be placed on the market.

Moreover, this year's grain balance is relatively small, and some mutton needs to be stored in winter. There are only 20 sheep sold in the Heihebao market, and about [-] gold coins are exchanged.

Compared with previous years, the income from animal husbandry has dropped by two-thirds, which has greatly affected the fiscal revenue of the Harland Territory.

Although there is no war in the steel industry this year, due to the large increase in population, the domestic demand market is very strong, especially the real estate industry, which has an extremely outstanding ability to drive the economy.

The number of freedmen has increased by 10 in the past two years, and these people all need to build their own houses.The demand for steel bars and ironware increased significantly. Although Richard continued to lower the wholesale price of steel products, the steel production in Harland's territory exceeded [-] tons, bringing in an income of [-] gold coins.

Compared with when the territory was first established, the price of steel has dropped to about 30.00% of the original price.

According to the current development speed of the Harland Territory, once the steam engine is used in steelmaking, the output will usher in a surge, and the price of steel will also usher in a huge drop.

Although the woolen product market is not saturated, the output has been reduced by about half due to the impact of sheep plague.Due to insufficient production, the price of woolen products has increased by 40.00%. This year's income is only [-] gold coins, which is slightly lower than last year.

Affected by the plague, many aristocrats who planned to raise sheep and manufacture woolen products suffered heavy losses. Some aristocrats with insufficient family resources decided to withdraw from this industry. There were fewer competitors in northern Xinjiang, and Harland's territory may have a few more years to monopolize the market.

The Harland Territory has two pillars of agriculture and animal husbandry, which are the main contributors to tax revenue.In the past few years, the entry and exit of the territory almost completely relied on these two legs to walk.Although there was no agricultural surplus last year, animal husbandry brought an income of [-] gold coins to the territory.

This year, agriculture and animal husbandry, the two major contributors to finances, are lame, and the biggest contributor is taxation.

There are 22 free citizens throughout the year, and the land tax alone has a tax of [-] gold coins. In addition to the income from customs duties, commercial taxes, and real estate taxes, the tax revenue this year has reached [-] gold coins. largest income.

The growth of the brown sugar trade is also very good, and the output has increased by about 50.00% compared with last year.As the brown sugar trees continue to grow taller and the brown sugar plantations continue to expand, the high-speed growth in production can continue for a long time.

This year's brown sugar production is [-] tons. In order to absorb the increased production capacity, the Harland Territory is expanding the domestic demand market while continuing to reduce prices and export to the outside world.Not only has the export volume of the Grand Duchy of Stanik doubled, but the Nolan market has also completely destroyed the honey, with a total profit of about [-] gold coins.

This year, the magic crystal charging technology has improved, and the efficiency has increased to about 20.00%. In addition, the mage tower was built in Fort William, and the third set of magic crystal charging equipment was installed. The annual income increased by [-]% compared with last year. Into gold coins about [-] income.

The magic crystal is a very important strategic reserve, and the Harland Territory will naturally not exchange the magic crystal for gold coins.In addition to charging magic props, these magic crystals are also used for scientific research.

We were lucky this year, we hunted a seventh-rank alligator and caught a large herd of iron horned horses. In addition to the bonuses for the hunting team, Harland's territory earned about [-] gold coins.

The eyeballs of the seventh-level magic crocodile can be used to refine the magic eye medicine. Although the effect of this medicine is not as good as the life evolution medicine, it is also very helpful for the sixth-level fighters to break through to the seventh level.

Li Cha is already a sixth-tier fighter, but he knows from the attribute panel that his accumulation is far from enough.The magic eye potion can only be stored for half a year. In the end, this potion was traded out by Li Cha in exchange for a few pieces of precious magic minerals.

This year, the Harland Territory launched three kinds of products. The first one was alchemy bombs, which sold [-] pieces and brought about [-] gold coins in net income to the Territory.

The second type is soap, soap. There is a large amount of animal fat in the Harland territory that cannot be consumed. In addition, there are salt lake mines in the territory, which can produce a large amount of natural soda ash. The cost of producing soap is relatively low, and Richard does not sell it at a high price. The new product also brought Harland a net income of [-] gold coins.

The third type is dyed cloth. Dyed cloth is a luxury item in Grant Kingdom. The dyed cloth produced in Harland's territory is only sold within the territory and the four provinces of northern Xinjiang. The market is relatively small, with only about [-] gold coins in net income.

Although the territory of Harland was the first to invent highly distilled alcohol, it can only be sold in the domestic market now.Even the markets in the four provinces of northern Xinjiang have many competitors.This year, the domestic demand market has expanded, the army has expanded, the wine market has increased a lot, and the profit has reached about [-] gold coins.

Because of the plague in summer, Harland's territory sells medicines to suppress the plague, which is also a very important income this year, but when the medicine is developed, the plague is almost over. Received an income of 1 gold coins.

In the spring of this year, a new queen bee hatched in Harland's territory, and the production of hemostatic ointment continued to increase. Although the selling price decreased by 20.00%, the profit remained stable at around [-] gold coins.

In addition to these two star drugs, Harland's territory also has burn ointment, antidiarrheal medicine, painkiller and so on.This year's drug sales in Harland's territory brought in a profit of [-] gold coins.The pharmaceutical trade has gradually become a key industry in Harland's territory and an important source of income.

This industry has a high threshold and is a typical high-tech industry. Even if other people want to copy it, it will be very difficult. After all, other big nobles basically have no chemical or medical foundation.

The transportation industry has lost military orders, and the four-wheeled carriages have also been vying for the market with a large number of counterfeit goods. The total profit has decreased by nearly 40.00%, and the income is only [-] gold coins.

The output of the coal mine exceeded 30.00 tons, an increase of [-]% compared to last year. The number of miners did not increase, and the efficiency improved a lot. The net profit was [-] gold coins.

With the use of steam machinery, the output of coal mines will be greatly increased next year, and profits may double.

The number of free citizens has increased significantly, which has led to the development of real estate.There are many chains behind the real estate, such as masonry, cement, glass, furniture, etc. These industries related to the downstream of real estate have brought an income of [-] gold coins to Harland's territory this year.

The perfume industry is still very stable, the market size is relatively small, there are no competitors, and the profit is relatively stable, about [-] gold coins.

With the expansion of schools and hospitals, the amount of paper used in the territory of Harland is increasing. Small industries such as book printing, paper manufacturing, and fruit products have an income of about [-] gold coins this year.

On the whole, the cash income of Harland Territory this year is about 43 gold coins, an increase of [-] gold coins compared to last year, and the growth rate is about .

From the perspective of financial data, the industry in Harland's territory is becoming more and more abundant, and it no longer relies on one or two commodities for income.

This year, there is a cash income of 43, and there is also a huge financial expenditure.

The first is military expenditure. With the development of time, there are more and more free civilian soldiers. This year, there are already more than 8000 soldiers in the territory, and the military expenditure is about 9000 gold coins.In addition, the expansion of the army to [-] people is also a huge expenditure in logistics. Just food, clothes, and barracks construction cost [-] gold coins.

Weapons and armor for 4000 recruits, war horses and beasts, expansion of magical beast cavalry, etc., add up to [-] gold coins.

Li Cha raised the disability and pension standards, and the pension has increased to about 1 gold coins this year.

Although the paramilitary forces such as intelligence and public security have not expanded this year, they still need to spend [-] gold coins.

In addition, Harland Territory plans to manufacture hundreds of scorching ray guns, and also needs to reserve a part of blood steel and magic crystals, which will cost about 1 gold coins.

Counting some logistics reception, intelligence acquisition and other expenses, this year's investment in military expenses alone is 29 gold coins, accounting for about 60.00% of the fiscal revenue.The ratio is higher than last year.

Seventy percent of fiscal revenue is used for military expenditures, resulting in a lack of funds for education, medical care, and civil affairs departments, which slows down the speed of development.But to survive in northern Xinjiang, no matter which lord needs to maintain the highest investment in the army.

The military strength is not enough, no matter how well-developed the territory is, no matter how rich it is, it will be fat in other people's mouths.

In addition to the huge military expenditure, Harland Territory has invested [-] gold coins in education and medical care this year.
