Chapter 696 697 Officials"We are committed to improving the gap between the rich and the poor, and that's what we've been doing." Dez sat in the Conference Hall In the first place, he looked at the gorgeously dressed ministers sitting on both sides of the table.
The empire relied on merchants to start its business, and many chaebols and nobles gained their corresponding positions at the top of the empire.
And the profits of these imperial officials from the policies of the empire are also the investment with the highest rate of return in their life.
However, it is clear that these big chaebols, wealthy families, and nobles have no awareness of poverty alleviation.
The most they can do is, while squeezing the labor force and making more profits, they spill some leftovers from their fingers, so that the commoners who follow them have a bite. eat.
"The average wage of workers in the richest region of the empire, which is the core region, has reached a record 119gold coin a month!" Dez tapped the report twice with his hand, looking very unhappy .
Sitting in the position of the Prime Minister of the Empire, he was only in his early 20s, so he looked too young no matter what.
Young enough to be despised by a group of nobles and big capitalists here, this is Dez's disadvantage. Of course, no one dared to be foolish enough to provoke this suave youngster. After all, the surname Lontate was definitely synonymous with "can't provoke" in the Alanhill Empire.
Sitting next to Dez's right hand is the old minister in charge of the economy, Gurlo. The Old Master's health has been getting worse and worse recently, and he often needs to take leave. One third time is either in the hospital or in rest at home.
However, Alanhill's economy is still thriving, with no sign of chaos, thanks to Old Master's really good hands.
"In the poorest area of the empire, the per capita income is only 39 Silver Coins. The difference is hundreds of times!" Dez pushed the document in his hand to everyone, coldly said: "The Emperor Your Majesty has This question is very unsatisfactory, do you guys have to wait until Your Majesty is annoyed to find a solution?"
In the most cutting-edge field, the Alanhill Empire has already expanded its territory on the moon. Rich Serris nobles can even marry expensive Elf Race beauties, transforming their next generation into mixed-race longevity elites!
And in the poorest areas, the government often subsidizes cheap food such as Budd mustard to those on the brink of starvation.
When it comes to national major events, Elf Race's recent news has been buzzing with excitement, and it is not groundless at first glance. Once the inclusion of Elf Race becomes a fact, Alanhill will jump to a new level, the era of Human Sovereign has arrived.
Behind this brilliance, apart from the core areas and first-tier cities, most of Alanhill is still the same as it was five years ago.
That's why, Chris ordered Dez, the Prime Minister of the Empire, who was in charge of people's livelihood issues, to convene this meeting.
Chris hopes to improve the happiness index of the people in an all-round way. He hopes that the empire he rules will develop in an all-round way, not a deformed and perverted society that only knows expansion like the devil.
As the Emperor of the Empire, Chris hopes that his army's campaign will actually improve the living standards of the people. Only in this way can the entire empire develop in a healthy way, and it will not lead to a Road of No Return that has no way to turn back.
In fact, everyone here is willing to cooperate with the strategic decision to balance the gap between the rich and the poor at this time. They also hope that large areas of poverty-stricken areas can become rich and join the ranks of people who can spend money.
So that they can continue to dump the ever-changing high-tech products, so that they can guarantee what they produce and still generate profits for them.
"The industrial sector is trying to find a way to decentralize less important enterprises to more marginal areas, but the speed of implementation... is very slow." A minister intervened and said first.
Another minister sitting next to him also echoed: "Yes, now it really affects the whole body, we can no longer just plan an industrial base like before, and then ignore the cost. It is a large-scale investment.”
“Yes, just think about it, and now you have to ensure all kinds of production, and also take into account the livelihood issues in wealthy areas, you can’t make decisions casually.” An old man propped up the table with both hands and followed.
What they say are difficulties, and these difficulties are real. First of all, some military-industrial enterprises are not very active, because the opinions of the military are behind them.
At the same time, some companies have to give priority to ensuring the supply of Expedition Demon Realm, so they can't just relocate.
For example, the production of floating battleship includes more than 19,700 subordinate parts suppliers, including missile factories, steel plate factories, artillery factories, nuclear power factories, etc. - any one of these companies. If something goes wrong, the production speed of the floating battleship will be seriously affected.
Therefore, the conservative minister began to speak: "I propose to develop tourism, let these backward areas give full play to their own advantages, and try to increase some income first, so as to be more stable..."
As in the real world, giving priority to the development of some tertiary industries in backward regions can be regarded as a rapid improvement in income status - but if you take a long-term perspective, you will know that this is only an expedient measure.
"In the industry under the Emperor Your Majesty, I heard that in the next year, 3,000 factories will be distributed to underdeveloped areas... I think this method is worth learning from." As a last resort, Dez He opened his mouth to correct the direction of his speech: "The Lontate Group will also decentralize related enterprises to underdeveloped areas in the future. The number is about 1,000!"
"Traditional industries have no profit points. If someone is willing to take over, I don't care. Although I am not as big as the Lontate family, I am still willing to respond to Your Majesty's call." With Searle's model essay, other people's speeches are more unified.
"300 glass, stainless steel and other manufacturing factories, I am willing to take them out and distribute them to the corresponding areas..." The people who are sitting here are all people who have stood firm through winds and waves. , their decision-making has always been in line with the trend.
Those idiots who went upstream, the grass on the grave is now three feet high. Many of the people who buried these idiots are still sitting at this conference table.
"The lumber mill under my command and all the machinery can be relocated immediately... As long as the government in the border area provides the land, I will move immediately without frowning!" While patting his chest, One of the ministers promised while opening his mouth.
"With your great help, I believe that in the next six months, the livelihood of the marginalized areas will be greatly improved." Dez is satisfied with the attitude of these nobles , his face has also become a lot better.
"The Wallawa region is rich with mines. We will transfer 200,000 residents from here in the future and move to the Misak region, which is also rich in minerals." Then he began to introduce the follow-up economic development strategy.
"The Higgs region is rich in oil, and the local residents should also have a plan to migrate to the northern region of Norma, which is also rich in oil." Everyone knows the empire's plan to relocate part of the population, but they don't know the scale There is so huge.
"The government will allocate 300 million gold coins for road construction and other development in the Gushan area where there are many iron ferrite veins... This plan will start tomorrow." After finishing the migration, Dez said again Other development plan details.
"Similarly, for the fishing industry in the South Inland Sea, the government will invest 70 million gold coins to open canning factories there, develop seafood dishes with new flavors, and develop local people's livelihood." He said one by one Said, so many people are elated.
This is all valuable news. Even just buying some land in these places in advance is enough to make a lot of money.
"The two important ports in the southern region of Paston and Briburn will be restored in the next two years. The investment shares will notify you to bid later." But Dez still kept talking , as if everything was given away for free.
"The railway line and highway line extending from Sudo City to the hinterland of the Kasik area will be bid for later, with a total investment of about 3 billion gold coins." He said while looking at each The flower-like face of a man.
Then, the Prime Minister of the Empire changed his words: "The Empire will issue the "Land Use Regulations" in the next two months. This regulation was drafted by me. I can tell you here responsibly. Ladies and gentlemen, after two months, all the purchased land will be invested and used within half a year, if there is no investment and no use, it will be taken back to the state..."
Hearing this news, those who Ministers who were still planning to buy land, stared wide-eyed one by one, and ashen-faced in an instant.
"Is this a bit..." A minister looked towards Dez with a pale face, wanting to raise his objection.
Dez didn't even look at him, and continued each minding their own business and said: "I'm afraid of being repossessed, so I quickly invest in the project... I can get a loan if I can, and sell it if I can't! Tell everyone, don't blame me for being ruthless when the time comes!"
"33 city airports, 140,000 kilometers of railways, 220,000 kilometers of highways, 18 airports, 7 ports, and a total length of 7,000 kilometers. 35 nuclear power plants, 170 thermal power plants, 9 hydroelectric dams..." Dez said, leaning back in his chair.
Then he pointed to another stack of documents placed in front of Old Master Gurlo, and said to everyone in the look pale: "Don't say that the country has no way for you to make money, I have countless here. Qing's project depends on whether you are willing to participate."
When he said this, Dez's face finally showed the expression of submit to me and prosper oppose me and perish, which also made people realize By the way, this man in his early 20s is not easy to mess with.
Everyone swallowed involuntarily, and now they finally remembered that the man sitting in front of them was not just a 20-year-old emperor's henchman, he was also the prime minister of the Alanhill Empire, a member of the Lontate family. patriarch , a wealthy man who surpassed all the emperors in the past.
