Chapter 480 State Council-Urban Construction Marshal
"Next, I would like to ask Minister Cai to talk about our urban and rural construction situation."

After Cai Jinzhang stood up and nodded to the two heads of government as usual, he opened his notebook and spoke.

“In the past five years, the main task of our Ministry of Urban Development has been on infrastructure construction, such as the implementation of British-aided projects to build various supporting factories, dormitories and office buildings, with a main construction area of ​​500 million square meters.

In addition, our department has built 550 thermal power plants and 3 hydropower stations across the country.

The total designed power generation capacity of the thermal power plant is 8000 million kilowatt hours.

The Fuxin Reservoir (today's Vaal Reservoir in South Africa) on the Vaal River has a dam height of 54.2 meters and a storage capacity of 9.94 million cubic meters.

This dam can not only supply sufficient domestic water to Hanking and Lander Fortress City, but also generate electricity for use in the entire Zhongjing region.

The installed capacity of this reservoir is 5 kilowatt hours, which is enough to meet the current electricity demand of the Zhongjing Region.

In addition, we built a Hanking Reservoir on the Crocodile River, with a total reservoir capacity of 1.5 million cubic meters.

This reservoir is mainly used to provide domestic water and irrigation water to Hanking and surrounding satellite cities.

The entire dam is 88 meters high and 914 meters long. The total reservoir storage capacity is 59.6 billion cubic meters. When the dam is completed, it will form a reservoir of 374 square kilometers. The first installed capacity of this hydropower station is two 2 kW units.

……

The storage area of ​​this reservoir will exceed 5000 square kilometers, which is more than 3 times that of the Nova Reservoir, but the power generation capacity will only be three times that of this reservoir. "

In addition, we will continue to build thermal power plants and strive to achieve an annual power generation capacity of 1910 million hours by 8.

In addition to power construction, in the next five years, we will do more infrastructure projects in Hanking. The first is to build a government affairs center to solve the embarrassment of having to come to the Central Parliament to hold state affairs meetings. "

In addition, we built a large hydropower station on the upper reaches of the Orange River. This hydropower station is located near the town of Nova in the South Orange Region (now the town of Novaspunte in South Africa).

(This reservoir can actually only produce a maximum annual power generation of 7 million kilowatt-hours. I don’t know if it can be pressurized. If anyone knows, please let me know.)
“Currently, the expert demonstration of this reservoir is in progress. Once the demonstration is completed, we will build it immediately.

Although the power generation capacity of the United States has been greatly reduced, it is still the world's largest power generation country, still twice that of Germany.

So far, my country's total annual power generation is about 8165 billion hours, which is far lower than the level of major countries in the world. "

“The government center will be built at the end of King Street, on a hill to the east of the city, and a palace will be built on that hill, incorporating oriental garden styles and combining modern architectural features.

Now it's okay, the Minister of Urban Construction has spoken, and the matter is settled.

In the original time and space, the power generation of the United States in 1907 was a terrifying 141 billion kilowatt-hours, nearly four times that of the second-placed Germany. In this time and space, because Tesla stayed in South China, DC and AC power still coexisted in the United States.

This palace will be the residence of Chairman Shi and the future royal palace. This palace is called 'Xinghan Palace'.

“In the next five years, in addition to continuing to complete the Nova Reservoir (today’s Hendrick Verwald Reservoir in South Africa), we will also build the world’s largest reservoir.

At the same time, a government affairs center will be built under the palace. The government affairs center will be the office space of various cabinet departments.

This reservoir has not yet been completed and is expected to be completed in 1910. However, we plan to have an annual power generation capacity of 5 million kilowatt hours of this hydropower station.

This sentence made many senior officials present laugh, although everyone had long wanted to build a magnificent office building.

However, Chairman Shi remained silent and no one dared to mention it.

The Government Affairs Center will be built into a symmetrical curved building spanning the entire mountain ridge. Only by climbing hundreds of steps through the Government Affairs Center can you get to the Xinghan Palace.

In addition to the Xinghan Palace and the Government Affairs Center Building, we will also build a military building.

This building will gather various aspects of the navy, land and air force, as well as logistics equipment and intelligence. This is a pentagonal building complex, which we can call the 'Pentagon'. The military building will be on the far west side of King Street, close to the outskirts of the city, making it easier to get in and out of the city. "

After the Ministry of Urban Development finished speaking, Minister Herzog of the Ministry of Justice came next. He nodded to the two heads of government as usual and began to speak.

“Things have been relatively easy for our two departments, the Ministry of Justice and the Police, over the past five years.

Because most of our citizens live a peaceful and serious life, even if there are illegal and criminal acts, they are mostly minor crimes.

We also focus on strengthening the publicity of the law, reducing the number of family groups and the responsibility system of township civil servants, and reporting problematic matters to grassroots organizations as soon as possible.

We have also set up a reporting mailbox and legal direct telephone number. Once someone has an injustice, they can contact our judicial department through the reporting mailbox and legal direct telephone number.

The police department has also set up a public mailbox and a police telephone number. Once there is a call to report the police situation or injustice, you can report it to the police by writing a letter or calling the police.

In addition, we have also set up legal promotion periods on radio stations and newspapers to inform the public of various police situations or vicious cases, so that the public can fully understand that those who break the law will be punished.

In addition, we also cooperated with the cultural and educational departments to record a small theater for the popularization of law and broadcast it on the radio.

In the past few years, our legal department has handled only 1689 malignant criminal cases, 6799 ordinary criminal cases, and 55250 civil cases.

In terms of case handling satisfaction, 90%.

The police department handled a total of 223 million cases, 9.9% of which were civil disputes, and there were fewer vicious and large-scale criminal cases. "

Ouyang Geng expressed satisfaction with the Ministry of Justice's report. These data are far lower than the previously established crime rate of 5 per 10,000.

"Okay, everyone has worked hard, but this meeting is just to summarize the past achievements. The road to the future is still at our feet. No one can relax. We all need to continue to move forward firmly."

After listening to Chairman Shi's instructions, many senior officials stood up and shouted loudly: "Yes, I will obey Chairman's instructions!"

After Shi Jintang finished speaking, he looked at Ouyang Geng again.

"Premier Ouyang announced the work goals for the next stage."

Ouyang Geng picked up the folder in front of him, "Agriculture, urban construction, culture and education, transportation, finance, and overseas affairs will still set goals for the next five years in accordance with the development requirements we set last time.

The Ministry of Medicine and Health, the Ministry of Justice and the Police will just continue to maintain the existing data.

As for industry and commerce, we need to ensure that output value quadruples in the next five years.

In terms of population, I require that the population reach 1913 million in 3000.

How about it, Minister Wang and Minister Fu, are you confident? "

When Futong heard this, he felt a sudden shock in his heart. Prime Minister Ouyang was going to give me strength again.

The boss has given an order, and it’s okay if he doesn’t accept it.

"Okay, Prime Minister, I will work hard and try my best to fulfill your expectations."

Wang Zhongyi was full of confidence, "Okay, Prime Minister, don't worry, I will not let you down."

Now everyone was happy, and this meeting made everyone more confident.

Chairman Shi announced loudly in a happy atmosphere: "The meeting is adjourned!"
