Chapter 736 The foundation of clockwork industrialization
Absorbed by the military police knights, three carriages in front and behind slowly set off outside the exchange gate and headed towards the Uffizi Palace.
Looking at the sunny side of the canal, people wearing short hoods and burqa shirts, came and went.
A few black swallows were parked on the eaves of spring.
At the love nest they built, you can also see a brick stained with charred marks.
In order to commemorate the Battle of Rapids and the people who died in that battle, newly built houses in the city often use a piece with black smoke marks.
"Catherine?" Horn, who was sitting in the carriage, suddenly spoke.
"Huh?"
"Are you interested in getting out of the car and walking with me?" Horn glanced at the street scene outside, "At the intersection in front, we can walk next to the canal for ten minutes, and then we will arrive at Uffizi Palace."
"What?" Catherine didn't know what she thought of, and coughed, "What do you do when you get off the car suddenly?"
"I just want us to go out alone."
Catherine looked down at her knee-length horse boots: "What should the senior partners do?"
Horn doesn't care: "Then let them wait, it won't be long."
"Since you said that, okay."
The carriage stopped at the intersection. Under the security of countless guards and Cheka, Horn and Katherin walked into the willow-like canal sidewalk.
Catherine wore a gauze hat that covered her face, and white lace gloves held Horn's arm.
Steping on the stone slab next to the river, the two of them were walking along the river like newlywed couples.
The two of them were speechless for a moment, and Catherine spoke first: "Milson, what are you going to do?"
"I remember his name."
In this vote, Horn did not give the main player Milson enough rewards, but instead gave Duterty's main assets to Goonzi.
The reason is also very simple. Most of Duterti's assets are in the banking and housing industries. As a marine tycoon, Milson has no experience or interest.
Milson's talent, Horn has other uses.
"Milson has a straight personality and is often rude and careless when doing trivial things, but he is firm in will and is suitable for positions that do not look at his abilities and standpoints." Catherine naturally had to say a few words to this old friend.
"Well, I remember."
The two continued to walk forward two steps along the noisy river, and then Catherine said quietly: "How many years will my Megdi Chamber of Commerce live?"
After all, the Megdi Chamber of Commerce is Katherine's long-term effort, and it is inevitable that she will be ruthless when she was split by Horn.
"Megerdi Chamber of Commerce may go bankrupt, but I will never allow it to deteriorate." Horn said apologetically to Catherine, "Megerdi Chamber of Commerce can exist, but its large number of business territory must be split out."
This is an inevitable thing, industry and commerce such as dyes, chemicals, furs, and textiles can be given to these people.
But industries such as transportation, banking, peat, etc. must be controlled by the Shenglian government, and the Shenglian government will implement a monopoly.
30% of the profits of all monopoly industries are paid, 30% are reserved as operating reserves, 20% are given to management (shareholders, shipowners, managers), and 20% are paid as dividends for employees.
"It would be nice to leave the name Megdi." Catherine shrugged, "I was the head of the Megdi Chamber of Commerce and the President of the Saint Bank, which made many people criticized me.
You just happened to have the Megdi Chamber of Commerce demolished megdi Chamber, so I don't have any questions about this... Can I ask, how are you going to split it?"
"It's very simple. First, it is to integrate key industries such as transportation and banking chambers, either merge or abolish.
The integrated chamber of commerce is converted into a Monastery of St. You, issuing franchise rights, and the Monastery of the Sage Court monopolizes the key industries.
As for those small workshop owners and small handicraftsmen between townships, they will establish a business and business convention for common labor."
To be precise, Horn's arrangement was to establish a business convention in the priest town, bringing together the originally scattered small handicraftsmen.
Efficiency and production capacity are improved through similar mutual aid and advanced equipment, thereby improving profits and economy.
This is a preparation for future expansion of production and promotion of consumption. Next year will be 1449.
In Horn's plan, the first four years were just laying the foundation, and it was only in 1449 that it truly entered the era of industrial ignition.
Currently, the raw materials are produced in Black Snake Bay in the south.
The big market of the Kingdom of Flange has existed.
The transportation revolution caused by the canal network and the infrastructure construction of 200,000 pounds in four years has occurred.
The technological innovation brought by the Shangong Engine and the alchemy revolution has been made.
The districtization of Baihu and Sipu system agricultural revolution has brought about increased grain production and excess labor.
Stocks, bonds and exchanges have the financing methods.
The sharp increase in the number of goods and the emergence of consumer culture brought about by the innovation of the ideological innovation of the Holy Dao School.
The great changes in the publishing industry brought about by printing presses and paper and ink, and the innovation of education system and knowledge dissemination brought about by public schools and the master-apprentice system.
No mistakes, one poem, one post, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one read!
In addition to the new army that protects these achievements, the chain of industrialization and most basic conditions, Horn has forced himself to make it up.
The price is a lot of bloodshed and sacrifice, countless complicated work, the political situation of embroidery on steel wire, and the hidden dangers of partial cracks in the Thousand River Valley.
Of course, there is most of Horn's personal life.
The year is always full of high-intensity work and a closely arranged schedule, not to mention the time to fight outside.
Jenna was training recruits and presided over the army, Catherine ran around the rapids, Shilov was doing research in the Sanctuary Court, and Moriyati was even presiding over the overall situation in Xia Green City.
Everyone is very busy and can hardly take time.
The people Horn most often contacted in a year were Armand, Pettier, René and Sissi.
But no matter what, the previous efforts finally paid off.
Horn is currently only three problems left, including the technical research of the lightning furnace (steel), the imperial market's doubts about the investment of the Saint League (capital), and the destruction of the results by the invasion of the Lea Kingdom (politics).
As long as these three problems are solved, the positive feedback chain of clockwork industrialization will appear-
Technical breakthroughs improve productivity, so profits are reinvested and production are expanded, so infrastructure is built to reduce transaction costs, and finally the expansion of the market size further stimulates technological innovation.
Among these three problems, the first one is unhurried, and it can be done with the existing technology, while the latter two can be solved by defeating the Lea Kingdom.
"It's just Meliati...ah." Horn felt a headache when he thought about this. "I really don't know whether her decision was right or wrong."
Catherine also smiled bitterly: "Mialiati is stubborn, and she can't even pull back the nine cows.
The good thing is that she will never waver, and you can definitely trust her in the same direction.
But the bad thing is that once she gets into the horns, she won't give up until she dies."
Horn remained silent until Uffizi Palace was approaching and spoke again: "At the end of this month, I will set out to North Munde County to have her face to face again."
"You can't persuade her."
"At least let her not be so extreme and use too much force."
Time moved forward with great strides, and May soon came.
Horne inspected Fort Joan of Arc, Longdee and the Court of the Holy Court on the prescribed schedule.
He was about to go north to Nanmander County along the newly built Teppo River and go to North Munde to meet Meliati when he heard a new news from North Munde.
"His Highness Meliati gathered troops in Laden Castle in the name of revenge and fighting for the Duke of the vassal Baron Moragg, and threatened the Duke of Wingchas to hand over the salt flats!"
