Damn it, I'm in the garbage book I wrote

Chapter 576 Industrial Zone Development Plan

If a modern person discusses the word "industry", most people who can read Braille can make a few remarks about it. This is not a result of a crushing IQ, but an instinctive reaction resulting from what they have seen and heard.

But in this era, if we want to discuss what industry is, even the most eloquent people will not be able to explain it clearly in a short time. Perhaps after long thinking, what they get in the end is still the workshop-style small handicraft model.

Let me emphasize again that this is not stupidity, but a lack of a systematic concept.

The biggest problem facing Fuliang at present is that families, home workshops and small handicraft workshops cannot be systematized and integrated into a real industrial model.

But as we all know, the transformation from a small peasant economy and handicraft economy to a complete industrial model requires a lot of hard work, whether it is colonial plunder or exploitation of the local people. Wasn't sheep eating people a classic example at that time?

But Xia Lin didn't want to go down this path. He had been reading the Teachers' Quotations desperately recently, trying to find the answer to the current problem from this direction.

The Gongwu Yamen was his pilot project, and he wanted the success of the Gongwu Yamen to encourage more people to join in the reform.

After all, only when people can see that this thing can make money, and make a lot of money, can the overall vitality be activated.

Douyazi has been really busy these days. She is a very conceited person. She thinks that there are too few supporting factories under Dongfeng Trading Company and the production capacity cannot keep up, which will affect the sales of her products.

She is rich and powerful, and she is working at full speed. Moreover, this little girl has a very stubborn temper. She wants to control the entire industrial chain of something in her own hands.

For example, the simplest thing is canned food. She is currently working on the conversion of canned food from military to civilian use. If this thing is not just limited to military products, then the cost must be reduced. So starting from the glass bottles, to the processing, she even wants to grow the fruits and vegetables herself.

For this batch of things, she wanted to concentrate everything from the raw materials in one area, because the cost increases by one penny for every additional mile of transportation from raw materials to finished products.

This cost cannot be reflected in military supplies because military use does not take cost into account, but if you really want to sell it for money, this thing will be very important.

Saving as much money as possible is the way to do business.

In addition, she also wants to allow people with a certain level of education to enter the factory, because according to Douyazi's statistics, for every additional 100 words a person knows, the losses caused in daily operations will be reduced by 10%.

This is a great thing, but it seems unrealistic given the current situation. However, Douya is not someone who gives up easily, so she made a request to Xia Lin.

"Give me a piece of land."

At this moment, Xia Lin was using the toilet, and Douyazi was blocking the door of the toilet.

"What do you want the land for? No, you're going to die later, right?"

"You must grant me a piece of land, or I won't leave. I have your paper in my hand."

"You are sick, take medicine if you are sick."

Douyazi snorted coldly: "I want 5,000 acres of land."

"I think you've gone crazy. How is that possible?" Xia Lin also shouted from inside: "Five thousand acres, you want to kill me? Where can I get five thousand acres for you?"

"Three thousand acres will do."

"No, not even one acre."

Dugu Han snorted softly upon hearing this, his tone was full of disdain: "Without the land, what will your Public Works Office do? I have figured it out. You suddenly pushed me up, just to ask me to lead your Public Works Office to take a new path. Others don't have the financial resources and courage to do this, but now you want people but don't give them money. Oh, you want to destroy the bridge after crossing it, right? Very well, there is no need for you, General Xia, to do it. I will tear down the Dongfeng Commercial Bank tomorrow, and I will treat the money I invested as food to the dogs."

"Give me the paper."

Douyazi handed the paper over. Xia Lin came out after wiping it. He glanced at Douyazi, then went to the water tank to wash his hands and said, "You want land, and you want 10,000 acres right away. That's not how you bargain in business. I've calculated it for you. The maximum is 3,000 acres. If you want one more acre, you can only plant trees."

"I was planning to plant some trees because we're going to put a cannery in there too."

Others may not understand the meaning of this, but Xia Lin knows it very well. Douyazi is planning to create its own industrial ecosystem.

"Oh?" Xia Lin looked at her in surprise and said, "Make a report for me."

"I don't want to bother. I'll just tell you directly."

"Then you speak."

Douyazi felt something was wrong, but couldn't put her finger on it for a while. She felt like he was taking advantage of her again, but it didn't matter. She was too old to play coy like a little girl. But when Xia Lin heard her plan, she was a little surprised. Has the Dugu family always been so brave? They were investing tens of millions of taels of silver in a new and unknown area? The whole area would need to accommodate 100,000 people to meet the needs of this giant beast.

This is not a small number. It can be said that if it is placed in any place, it may be enough to shake the foundation. But looking at Douya's appearance, she seems to be unwilling to give up.

"One hundred thousand people, you mean you want to build an industrial park for one hundred thousand people? Do you know that if something goes wrong, it will be a civil unrest?" Xia Lin sat there, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "I didn't react when you asked for the land, and you're asking me for one hundred thousand people?"

"Just a hundred thousand." Xiao Douya twisted his neck, obviously not taking it seriously: "Just wait and see how I handle it."

Xia Lin put his hands behind his back and circled around the bean sprout: "Do you know..."

Did he know that before he finished speaking, someone rushed in from outside: "The Turks of the grassland proclaimed themselves emperors and established a country, changing the country's name to Yuan, claiming the orthodoxy of China."

Xia Lin almost vomited blood: "What? What is orthodox?"

"They said they were the descendants of Emperor Wu of Han who stayed there to fight the Xiongnu, and they wanted to build the Han Dynasty for the fourth time for Emperor Zhaolie of Han."

This sentence made Xia Lin and Dugu Han both confused. Xia Lin knew they could play, but he didn't expect them to play so well. What is the Four Great Han? Explain, what is the Four Great Han. What is Liu Yuan of the Five Barbarians and Sixteen Kingdoms? Oh, Liu Yuan and the Xiongnu are barbarians, but in your Turkic world, they are orthodox, right?

Very good, very fun, there must be some Han Chinese guiding behind this.

Xia Lin stroked his chin in silence for a moment, then turned back to look at Dugu Han: "Okay, I'll approve 100,000 people for you."

Xia Lin was actually somewhat helpless about this sudden turn, because the grassland was seriously planning to compete for the Central Plains. According to the current climate and temperature, the grassland's military expansion was estimated to be almost full, and they began to count the days until they could move south.

Li Yuan could not possibly not be on guard. After he dealt with the internal problems of the aristocratic families, he would launch a new round of military expansion. Once the military expansion took place, the grain production of the entire Central Plains would be affected, and some people would definitely migrate south with their families in order to avoid going to the battlefield.

This is almost a law. Jiangnan Road is naturally the best destination for these migrating people. The population will experience a surge, and the highly concentrated industrial model can just absorb these people.

That's why Xia Lin agreed to Dugu Han's request.

It’s interesting to say that Xia Lin didn’t believe in luck before, but since he met Douyazi, he has begun to believe in it a little.

Good luck, good luck, that means he is really blessed. As long as Dugu Han wants to do something, there will definitely be unexpected blessings even if there are difficulties and obstacles.

Before, she wanted to deal with the southern noble families who were against him, which was difficult in itself, after all, it was a complex system. But it happened that Emperor Hongbao passed away, and after Emperor Jingtai ascended the throne, he wanted to use the destruction of Buddhism to withdraw the savings of Emperor Hongbao in Buddhism, which directly helped her to settle the matter.

Afterwards, the Dugu family showed signs of dividing power between the north and the south. Xiao Douya went to Chang'an in person but failed to accomplish this task. But unfortunately, the Western Turks attacked Chang'an and were beaten back. The northern families were collectively hit by an aoe attack, and everyone was stunned. Douya took the opportunity to seize power from the northern Dugu family.

Now she is just about to embark on a new path. This is purely a reckless act done with passion. No one in the world, let alone Xia Lin, will support her.

But as luck would have it, the grasslands are now trying to create the Han Dynasty again, forcing the northern border to move south...

Let’s put it this way, Dayun has done nothing in her life, but she could almost become an emperor just by luck.

"Hey, your Chinese name is Liu, right?"

"Liu Han, what's wrong?"

Xia Lin rubbed his face vigorously: "The last person like this in your Liu family was called Liu Xiu."

Without further ado, just be prepared to absorb the population.

However, Dugu Han is about to implement the policy, but the preliminary preparations are not yet ready. But it doesn’t matter. She has nothing, no experience, no skills, and she doesn’t even know what industry is, but she has money.

If you have money, you should spend it. Dugu Han's goal in life is to spend all the family's money in her lifetime, but she doesn't seem to have succeeded so far, and instead has more and more money.

A few years ago, she was already rich enough to rival a country. Now, she is even rich enough to rival several countries. Her industry is almost causing panic among emperors at all levels, and is even beginning to spread across China like a plague.

She wanted to donate it, but no one dared to accept it, not even the royal family, because once her Dugu family started selling off their properties, it would cause panic in the local area, especially during this sensitive period.

If Xia Lin hadn't held her head tightly, who knows what rebellious thing Douyazi would have done.

So today there was an opportunity for her to build a national-level industrial park. Douyazi rolled up her sleeves and did three things right away: spend money, spend money, and spend fucking money!
