Chapter 483 Submission
After the Russian Empire nationalized the railways, the situation did not get better, but worsened.
Although the Imperial Railways in the private era had problems of one kind or another, they could at least still operate. Although the railway companies would not take the initiative to improve service quality, as long as there were problems with the railways, the railway companies would work as quickly as possible. Solve it without delay.
After the railways were nationalized, the cost was not reduced and the efficiency was even lower. During the Russo-Japanese War, there was a general strike by railway workers, traffic was paralyzed, and front-line supplies were seriously affected.
Let’s not talk about the high cost of the Amur Railway. The efficiency is really high. It takes less than 2 hours to travel 86 kilometers from Shuangchengzi to Vladivostok.
Don’t be too slow. The 600 kilometers from Bingcheng to Shuangchengzi took almost two and a half days, with an average of only about 10 kilometers per hour.
The scale of Vladivostok Railway Station is larger than any railway station that Joao Lyon and Rotstein have ever seen. You can enter the station via an overpass and exit through an underground passage. You can directly transfer to the subway in the train station. , the transportation is very convenient.
The underground passage is very spacious, the sanitary condition is also very good, and there is no special smell.
In the glass showcases decorated with electric lights on both sides of the passage, there are color introduction pictures of some tourist attractions in Vladivostok. Joao Lyon and Rotstein even discovered introduction pictures of the Vladivostok Fort.
For most port cities, the forts are military restricted areas and tourists are not allowed to visit.
"In Vladivostok, as long as you are willing to spend money, you can not only visit the fort, but you can even experience the feeling of firing a cannon -"
Kotuno knows Vladivostok well.
Although the main business of Daosheng Bank is not in Vladivostok, Kotuno spends most of the year in Vladivostok.
This can’t be blamed on Kotunno, Vladivostok is so fun that it makes people linger and want to stop.
“How is this possible!”
Joao Leone is in disbelief.
Rotstein’s smile was sarcastic.
George rose to fame during the Russo-Japanese War and became the new God of War of the Russian Empire. To be honest, Joao Lyon and Rotstein were both a little dubious about George's record.
If George lost his vigilance because he defeated Japan, then in the eyes of Joao Lyon and Rotstein, George is probably short-lived.
That’s right, this is in line with the tradition of the Russian Empire.
"Blank bullets, those without warheads, are expensive, but they will never make you regret it."
When Cotunno mentioned George, he couldn't help but feel proud.
Although Cotuno's father and George didn't have much dealings with each other, they were not political enemies and had no fundamental conflict.
Joao Lyon and Rotstein are both French. Although the Russian Empire and France are allies, France has also caused serious harm to the Russian Empire.
And it almost destroyed the country.
Paris is not only a world-famous cultural and financial capital, but also an entertainment capital.
Compared with the Parisians, George is so playful. Tourists in Vladivostok can not only visit the fort, but also the "Trophy" captured by the Siberian Fleet in the Russo-Japanese War, and the flagship of the Japanese Combined Fleet. "Mikasa" number.
After the Russo-Japanese War, the "Mikasa" was fished out by the Siberian Fleet, repaired and towed to Vladivostok for tourists to visit.
See clearly, it is a repair, not a repair.
The "Mikasa" was severely damaged, and even if it costs a lot of money to repair, it cannot continue to serve.
If you just patch the holes, it's easy.
So George fished out the "Mikasa" and towed it back to Vladivostok and transformed it into a military museum.
"Mikasa" is waste recycling.
The "Trophy" is a warship in service and was highly featured in the Russo-Japanese War. George was actually willing to transform an armored cruiser into a museum. This is in line with the true nature of an imperial prince. In addition to visiting forts and warships, in Vladivostok you can also take an airship or a hot air balloon, rent a yacht to go fishing, or go to a special hunting ground to experience hunting, have close contact with the legendary Cossacks, and so on.
In short, there is something to do in Vladivostok all year round, and you will not be lonely at all.
“Can we meet Grand Duke Yuriev?”
Joao Lyon hopes to visit George to solve the root cause of the dilemma of the Eastern Railway.
"The Grand Duke is very busy, I can only say that I will do my best."
Cotunno is not sure either.
Joao Leone was destined to be disappointed. George was not in Vladivostok at all, but went to Coconut City.
After buying East India for so long, George has not been to Coconut City yet. He is too unqualified as a lord.
But what can I say about Coconut City? It is indeed a good place, but it is not suitable for George.
East India is indeed rich in products, but it is also really hot, and it is humid and muggy. This makes George, who is used to the Vladivostok climate, very uncomfortable.
Although Vladivostok is cold in winter, it is still very comfortable in summer. There are four distinct seasons, and each season has a different feeling.
The temperature in East India is about the same all year round, so you don't have to worry about the heat. The key is the high humidity, which makes you feel sticky and uncomfortable whenever you move.
Kanunikov is not afraid, he is used to the climate of East India.
"It doesn't matter if it's hotter. In East India, you can work all year round. It's simply a paradise for capital."
Kanunikov loved East India to death.
When people in the 21st century mention the tropics, their first reaction is that people in the tropics are too lazy to get mud on the walls.
Tropical people are indeed lazy. If you discuss things with them in a loud and angry manner, it will probably be of no use and will piss you off to death.
But if you look at East India with a colonial mentality, the result will be completely different.
Lazy!
Haha, the whip in the hands of the colonists will make them more diligent.
If the whip doesn't work, there's also a machete and a rifle.
Kanunnikov did not count on the East Indian natives either.
Many aboriginals are indeed so muddy that they can’t even cover the wall. They live their lives waiting to die after having enough to eat. They don’t feel ashamed but feel proud of it.
Most of the workers in Coconut City come from Korea and Japan. The people in these two places are not only not lazy, but also can be called model workers with their enthusiasm for work.
The most important thing is that the Koreans and Japanese do not resist Russian management, which is very rare.
Goryeo was okay, its relationship with the Russian Empire had always been good.
Japan suffered heavy losses in the Russo-Japanese War. Almost every household wore mourning, and its national destiny was completely robbed by the Russian Empire. Therefore, the Japanese attitude towards the Russian Empire should be extremely resistant.
The facts are shocking.
Not only do the Japanese not resist Russian rule, many Japanese are also proud of working in Russia. Even if mistakes are made at work because of the Russians, they will never blame the Russians. Find the reason from yourself.
Kanunikov was still surprised by this.
George took it for granted, it was so normal for this kind of thing to happen to Japanese people.
