Chapter 487
“I want Reynath’s engineering team to build a private train station on the outskirts of Howling Forest as quickly as possible, and there must be a special train in the train station for it!”
Donald inside The first request from the meeting sounded irrelevant to changing the status quo of Renas.
“Are you going to develop Howling Woods? Excuse me…I don’t think it’s a good idea.”
In response to Donald’s request, Huxley Immediately guessed his plan, but thinking about it did not mean agreeing.
It is true that according to the laws of the Ryan Empire, the nobles have the right to develop some unowned resources in the area under their control, although the city of Rainas controlled by Serveit Talos does not cover the Howling Forest , but at the same time there is no other noble’s territory that includes this forest, after all, it is really too big.
This means that although the Howling Forest is currently owned by the Imperial Government, it is also an unowned resource to a certain extent. After all, the Imperial Government simply did not think about it, nor did it have the opportunity to develop it. it.
Huxley admitted that Howling Forest, an area larger than the entire Reynors City, is very rich in wood or other resources. If it can be developed, it can be Create a large number of jobs in a short period of time and drive the development of certain industries at an extremely fast speed.
And in Donald’s current status, if you want to develop the Howling Forest, you don’t need anyone’s consent. If you have special resources, report it to the count family in East Germany, and go. That’s it for a process.
But there is no reason why the Howling Forest has existed for so long and no one dares to develop it. The legends in this forest and those adventure teams that went but never returned are enough to prove that this forest has suffered some kind of damage. Protection from mysterious power.
Want to develop it, easier said than done?
Not to mention that the construction of a private railway station, the laying of railroad tracks and other projects require a lot of money. With the current financial situation of Renas City, if the money is invested in this, the urban construction may be lost. will be in a dilemma.
In case, after the construction is completed, it is found that the interior of Howling Forest cannot be developed at all, the money will be completely lost, and it will not be able to return to the original cost, which will be a huge loss!
“I don’t dare to say anything else. I know the situation of Howling Forest better than any of you. It will become the biggest capital for Renas to turn around, and you just need to cooperate with me.”
” p>
If he didn’t even know his real home base, Donald wouldn’t know what else he would know. The resources accumulated in the forest over the long years are all real, and the only thing lacking is the development with clear goals!
“Naturally, your opinion shall prevail.”
Huxley glanced at a few people next to him, only Victor had the same doubts on his face, and the others had the same doubts as he did. This seemingly unrealistic decision was all an expression of as it should be by rights, which made him realize something very quickly, and he made a brief record in his notebook with a strange expression, and there was no more any rebuttal.
“The next most important thing is people’s livelihood. The two things I just said at the meeting are obviously not enough. I need a practical plan to improve people’s awareness of Renas City in a short period of time. A sense of belonging, rather than being hostile to the Renas government like an enemy now, will cause great resistance to our next plan.”
Donald’s eyes looked towards when he said this. It’s Victor, he knows that Victor has been thinking about this for the past two years, and now is the time for him to flex his muscles.
If you want to reform, you must win the hearts and minds. If the people don’t trust the government at all, then no matter how much the latter tries, it will be futile.
even more how Now Renas is in a situation that may collapse at any time. It is unrealistic to say that it is unrealistic to use policies to force people to make changes.
Donald didn’t want the reforms to begin, and the people at the bottom would start a big riot for themselves, and Renas couldn’t afford such consequences.
“I have referred to the current situation of many first-tier cities in the Ryan Empire, and I think it is completely feasible to follow the laws of those cities that have been tested by the public in terms of system. The first thing to cut is the various taxes levied on the city of Reina, and the second is to improve the treatment of the people… I understand that Reina is incomparable with those cities that are developing and prosperous in all aspects, and it is more impossible immediately. To imitate their welfare system, so my idea is to temporarily make limited changes and improvements within a certain range. Now the people of Renas are actually at rock bottom, and their expectations for the government are very low. Changes can get a good response in a short period of time…”
Victor glanced at Donald’s expression every time he said a word, although there was an agreement between them, but in the After learning that these people actually killed all the guards around Serveit Talos except for the steward and beheaded him to replace them, he was involuntarily a little terrified in the face of the brand new Serveit Talos in front of him,
So now I only dare to choose some of my own plans that are milder to the capitalists and nobles in Reinas City, for fear that the other party will suddenly go back and suspend the contract.
After all, they have changed from challengers to vested interests, and their differences will naturally change their minds.
“Victor, your plan is too conservative. What I want is a drastic reform, do you understand?”
Donald listened for a while and found that all Victor’s proposals were It was an innocuous plan. Knowing that he had some scruples, he took the initiative to say,
“Renus still has too many drawbacks and cancers, I don’t have so much time to waste with them. Several notorious families in Nas City have been destroyed by me, and the government is under my control. From tomorrow, I will order them to cooperate with our reforms in the name of the mayor. What I need is a bold enough because I am determined to remove the obstacles that stand in the way of Renas in the shortest possible time.”
In Donald’s view, as long as the reform starts, it is absolutely impossible to be a hello I want everyone to be in a harmonious situation. One or more parties must make sacrifices…
Donald doesn’t want to sacrifice himself, so naturally he has to find a way to sacrifice others.
“I understand, please give me two days and I will give you a new plan.”
Victor clenched the pen in his hand excitedly, Isn’t he preparing for such an opportunity in Renas for so long?
Now that the opportunity is in front of him, what is there to hesitate?
“Huxley, speaking of the families we killed before, have their properties been collected?”
Donald seemed to suddenly remember something, turned around and asked .
“I have confiscated all those unowned properties in the name of the government, and the inventory work has not yet been completed. At present, it seems that the amount is quite large. Those families hold nearly 30% of the wealth of Renas. …..”
These are the core families that were attached to the former Serveit Talos. To put it bluntly, in Renas they are the most powerful families under the Talos family. , large-scale grabbing of social resources is inevitable.
It’s just that now they all belong to Donald, and in a sense, they belong to the original owner, after all, the entire Reinas City is his.
“The gold pounds or other non-fixed property stored in their warehouses are all put into the next city construction. As for the factories and other miscellaneous shops under the names of these families, all Incorporated into my name, organized into a large company, and the reform will start from here!”
In exchange for the former Serveit Talos, he must gather those wealth into his own hands , refused to let out the slightest bit, but the current Donald’s thinking is exactly the opposite of him. Since he has decided to build Renas as another base camp in addition to Howling Forest, it will be worth the money!
Huxley looked at the high-spirited and vigorous youngster sitting on the chair in front of him. ,
Donald’s approach is very similar to the plan he had privately considered before, but it was impossible to achieve because of Serveit Talos’ obstruction, but now it has become “Serveit Talos” with all his strength Support ideas that, to the ex, sound unequivocally against your own interests.
“Incomparably wise decision.”
Hearing the other party’s voice firmly expounding his thoughts, Huxley pursed his lips, and finally said softly to himself.
