Valley Emperor - v2 Chapter 2204

Since the 61st year of Xuanping, the Datang Empire launched the second industrial development plan, the economy of the Datang Empire has once again achieved substantial development, and at the same time, a large number of advanced technology products have been continuously appearing and being used. application.

With the continuous construction and improvement of power supply facilities, major cities began to use electricity one after another, the night sky of the city began to light up, and some prosperous areas even appeared in the grand scene of the city that never sleeps.

Not only electric lamps, but also all kinds of electrical appliances represented by electric fans have also entered the homes of ordinary people one after another.

Electric lamps, electric fans and other household appliances, although they seem obvious, are actually not the focus of the electrification process of the Tang Empire.

The core of the electrification of the Datang Empire is to replace the steam engine with electric motors and become the main driving force for industrial production, thereby improving production efficiency and reducing production costs.

This can be seen from the construction of power supply facilities in the early days of the Tang Dynasty, which were mostly carried out around major industrial areas.

And this has also achieved great results. From the 61st year of Xuanping, power supply facilities have been built nationwide. By the 68th year of Xuanping, almost all major industrial areas in the Datang Empire were already electrified. , a large number of enterprises began to use electric motors to replace steam engines, as the main driving force for production, which promoted the further development and improvement of productivity.

At the same time, the development of internal combustion engines continues to accelerate, and various types of freight vehicles and construction machinery using internal combustion engines have appeared in large numbers and are widely used in construction, transportation and other industries.

By the time of Xuanping’s sixty-eighth year, it was almost difficult to see the four-wheeled freight carriages full of goods in the past in major cities, replaced by a large number of freight wagons.

These trucks travel between railway stations, ports and other material transfer stations and various places in the urban area, transporting countless materials to meet the needs of urban people’s life and industrial development, but also continue to create greater economic benefits.

With the full rollout of the national highway network construction, a large number of provincial highways have been constructed, many of which are still paved with cement or asphalt for road hardening, making automobiles the main force for short- and medium-distance transportation.

This is more evident in the area around the Taihu Lake. In this region with the most developed economy and the largest logistics demand in the Tang Empire, even though there is a dense train network and river transportation system, it is still unable to meet the huge material transportation. need.

Now, with the construction of the Taihu Lake Ring Road and a number of straight roads, cars have truly become the main force of mid-way transportation.

When the direct road from Shanghai to Jinling was opened, the traffic flow was huge, beyond everyone’s imagination. A large number of passenger cars and trucks passed through this direct road to travel between Shanghai, Jinling and Suzhou, Zhenjiang and Changzhou along the way. and other areas.

When the Jinling-Wuhu section, the Wuhu-Hangzhou section, and the Hangzhou-Shanghai section are also open to traffic, the entire Taihu Lake Ring Road is open to traffic, and countless vehicles travel on this arterial road every day.

Due to the excessive traffic flow, the Taihu Lake Ring Road had to be upgraded and reconstructed shortly after its opening.

However, the Ministry of Communications has criticized the upgrading and reconstruction plan of the Taihu Lake Ring Road, because it conflicts with the national closed high-grade toll road network planned by the Ministry of Communications in the past two years.

The Ministry of Communications has already planned to build a closed high-grade toll road in the Zhili area, especially in the Taihu Lake area.

As for the highway around Taihu Lake, even if the name is a bit tall, this kind of highway is still part of the national highway network in the positioning of the Ministry of Communications.

The development of roads and automobiles complement each other, and the development of this kind of transportation brings more convenient transportation and lower cost.

In addition, highway construction and the development of the automobile industry not only bring convenience, but also the two industries themselves will bring great market demand.

The infrastructure construction of highway construction can bring a large amount of demand for building materials such as cement, sand and gravel, and construction machinery. The most obvious is that in recent years, the annual production capacity of the cement industry in the empire has almost doubled or even doubled every year. The quadruple speed shows ultra-high growth. The highway construction itself and the huge market demand and jobs indirectly brought about further contribute to the economic prosperity of the empire in recent years.

Not to mention the automobile industry. When the scale of the automobile industry exceeded the annual output of one million vehicles, the automobile industry has undoubtedly become one of the important industries of the Datang Empire. When the annual output of such cars exceeded 5 million, the automobile industry has undoubtedly become one of the pillar industries of the Datang Empire.

In the automobile industry, the annual output value of passenger cars alone has reached more than 1.3 billion Tang Yuan. This does not include trucks and all kinds of professional construction machinery. It seems that the annual output of this part is not as high as that of passenger cars. High, but the unit price is more expensive, and the overall output value is not low.

According to statistics from the Ministry of Commerce, in the 68th year of Xuanping, the entire internal combustion engine-led machinery industry, including passenger cars, trucks, construction machinery, etc., had an annual output value of more than 2 billion Tang Yuan. Only the internal combustion engine industry, It can contribute hundreds of millions of Tang Yuan in direct taxation to the empire every year.

Not to mention, the internal combustion engine industry is also a downstream industry. If you want to produce automobiles, you need all-round support from the machinery industry, steel industry, chemical industry, mining industry, transportation industry, etc. This indirectly drives the output value of hundreds of dollars. There are more than 100 million, and countless jobs have been created.

The direct and indirect huge output value and huge employment positions make the internal combustion engine industry represented by automobiles become one of the new pillar industries of the Datang Empire.

Just like the steam engine industry of that year, it not only brought assistance to the industrial upgrading of the Datang Empire, but the steam engine industry itself was also a huge industrial chain with large output value, which could directly and indirectly drive a large number of jobs and market demand.

When factories began to widely use electricity as the main power, the short-distance transportation was mainly driven by automobiles, supplemented by the traditional steam engine developed by the empire for decades and a series of related industries such as shipbuilding, shipping, and trains, and the petrochemical industry. As well as the full outbreak of new types of mechanical agriculture and fertilizer industries.

These all laid the foundation for the second round of economic explosion of the Datang Empire!

The explosive development of the economy has brought production value to the empire, taxation, the application of new technologies, etc. are secondary and the most critical.

In the autumn and October of Xuanping’s sixty-eighth year, the School of Economics of the Royal Institute of Technology, after a detailed investigation and careful argumentation, published a sensational thesis claiming that due to the strong impetus brought about by the second industrial development, the economy was fully developed. With development, the output of agricultural and livestock has been continuously increased, and the people’s income has continued to increase.

In the 68th year of Xuanping, after decades of development, the Datang Empire finally lowered the food index to less than 40%!

This means that the Datang Empire as a whole has entered a wealthy society!

And in the autumn of this year, the eighty-four-year-old Son of Heaven, Li Xuan, announced to the world that he would cede the throne to his grandson Li Hongyi in advance.

In the first month of the sixty-ninth year of Xuanping, the Datang Empire officially held a ceremony of renunciation. After the renunciation of Li Xuan, the Son of Heaven, he was honored as the Great Emperor of the Great Tang Empire, and the grandson Li Hongyi was enthroned as the emperor, and was honored as the Great Emperor of the Tang Empire. According to tradition, the new name Chengping was announced to express the inheritance of the Xuanping era.

In fact, before the cessation, when Li Hongyi was just named the emperor’s grandson, Li Xuan had already let Li Hongyi act as the Yushufang to take full control of military and political affairs.

At that time, apart from controlling the general direction, Li Xuan was no longer involved in detailed affairs.

This is still the case after the cessation, Li Xuan still controls the overall situation, even the memorial is in duplicate, and sent to Li Hongyi and Li Xuan respectively, but he still does not interfere in any specific affairs.

Therefore, renunciation has no effect on many policy affairs of the empire, because these were originally in charge of Li Hongyi, and now he is still in charge. The most important changes in the renunciation ceremony are nominal changes.

Li Xuan wanted to completely assign Li Hongyi’s emperor status before he died to avoid any disturbance.

In recent years, he has known that many areas overseas are ill-intentioned.

After the death of the prince Li Hong, the overseas vassal kings began to be dishonest one by one. It was only the secret report that Li Xuan received over the years, saying that a certain vassal king had attracted people’s hearts and set up factories privately. There are dozens of guns in private possession.

Of course, Li Hongyi, the grandson of the emperor at that time, was not too bad. In the past few years, he has found many opportunities and beaten the vassal king fiercely.

Li Xuan knows all these things, but he doesn’t care too much. As long as it’s not a principled thing, for example, the vassal king immediately raises troops to rebel, or Li Hongyi kills the vassal king with a ruthless hand, Li Xuan generally ignores it. .

As for Li Hongyi and these vassal kings, there may be conflicts or even wars in the future, that is their own business.

Everyone is an adult and a smart person~www.mtlnovel.com~ Choose your own path and bear the consequences yourself. He, an old man in his 80s, can’t control it.

What’s more, the contradiction between the mainland and overseas territories is not only the contradiction between the new emperor Li Hongyi and the overseas vassal kings, let alone the overseas vassal kings who want to kill their native land to seize the throne. Some of them may have thought so before. Now there are people who think so, but it is estimated that people with a little normal brain will not do this.

Overseas feudal lords, what they want now is independence!

And this independent tendency is often not the idea of ​​the vassal kings themselves!

Many feudal kings lived a very leisurely life, and there was no need or desire to fight against the local royal family!

Sixty years ago when Li Xuan was in Xuanping, in order to appease the feudal lord and also to finally determine the pattern of the royal family all over the world, Li Xuan bestowed upon the twenty-five feudal lords Ke Yuanjue to inherit and to rest with the country.

The fief cannot be changed, and the king cannot be changed!
