The first time Lu Ming entered Longgang, including when he met Liuli, he had not yet reached his twentieth birthday. Now he is twenty-two and a half years old. Counting the time, it is almost more than three years.
The changes in Longgang can be said to be earth-shaking. The production of the Jiuzhou Group Steel Plant is already in full swing, and related alloy material plants, new chemical plants, rubber plants, etc. have settled in Longgang.
In addition, although the Heishan Machinery Factory invested by Heishan Investment Company is named "Heishan", in fact the factory is also in Longgang, located on the edge of the administrative area of Longgang County, making it very mysterious.
Montenegro Machinery Factory is actually a military industrial enterprise that mainly produces armored vehicles, including personnel carriers, tanks, etc.
The imperial military-industrial enterprises were originally not developed, and could even be said to be half-dead.
Lu Ming did not foresee that a world war would break out, but with the consciousness of a time traveler, he would certainly not let go of shares in military industry companies that were priced at a bargain price. He held 15% of the shares in the three major military industry groups in the empire.
The above major shareholders.
With the civil strife in the empire, the military-industrial enterprises immediately experienced a boom.
But the worst thing is that most of these military-industrial enterprises are in the west, especially mechanical military industries such as armored vehicles.
Because the original biggest customer was the Royal Guards Corps near the imperial capital.
The rest of the local militiamen are engaged in minor disturbances and can be ignored.
However, as war breaks out, shareholders and others may gradually lose their say.
It's not obvious yet, but if you really go up against the second and third princes, in fact, the stocks you own in the military-industrial companies will be useless paper.
Moreover, the second prince and the third prince have implemented special management on the military industrial enterprises within their territory.
The Black Mountain Machinery Factory was actually in the chaotic period when civil strife broke out in the empire, and Lu Ming came to the rescue urgently.
The engineers are all the best, including some small equipment, all packaged by the original factory.
Moreover, the canton of St. Darren within the Eastern Economic Union has always been relatively developed in heavy industry and can provide production equipment such as machine tools and stamping production lines for military industrial enterprises.
Although it is a traditional settlement area for Westerners, it is located in the southwest of the East China Sea and is also the southwesternmost region of the Eastern Economic Alliance.
But at least they are still allies. In the foreseeable future, if any changes occur, they will be easier to control than the western states.
In addition, Lu Ming is also planning the production of firearms, ammunition and other weapons.
Nowadays, of course, the Montenegrin Army will not purchase infantry weapons and ammunition from the western states to avoid being stuck in the future. There are two main purchasing places. One is the Houseville Peninsula in the southeast, which is the Bisi Theoretically.
You can even inherit the Duke's autonomous territory. The research and development and production of light weapons are popular there. The prevalence of gangs may be an extension of firearms culture. Secondly, Hanzhou has a large firearms arsenal. In addition to light weapons, heavy machine guns and mortars are also available.
It also covers its research and development scope, and Lu Ming already holds more than 50% of the shares.
But again, if there is a war and unfriendly forces enter Hanzhou, the shares will be of no use at all.
We are planning to operate in the state of Antiguara, which is close to Hanzhou, and we are also taking precautions to create the possibility of quickly controlling the capital of Hanzhou when the situation worsens.
Of course, the technical threshold for the production of firearms and ammunition is relatively low. In Jingyang City, Montenegro Special Economic Zone, production lines have been introduced from Hanzhou and an ordnance factory is being built. I believe that within a few months, Montenegro will have its own rifles and ammunition.
But no matter what, if you can control things like Houseville and Hanzhou, it's better to have them in your own hands.
After all, it is impossible for all the production capacity of military industrial enterprises to be relocated to small Montenegro.
Driving on the asphalt road in Longgang, Lu Ming had a lot of thoughts about the changes in Longgang. He was also very lucky. As a time traveler, although he felt it was not necessary, he still followed the time traveler's intuition and started various manipulations and purchases very early.
Military industrial enterprise shares.
"What are you thinking about?" Christine asked from the passenger seat.
This was a small convertible sports car in the shape of a Beetle, but the carport fell down and it was not going very fast because there was a slightly bulky RV following behind it.
Longgang has changed a lot. Various companies have settled in Longgang. Passenger trains are now connected. Freight transportation volume has also increased exponentially. New policies have activated various mining industries. In addition, there is Shili Villa. At the beginning of this year, Longgang, in addition to mountain villages,
In plain areas, every village has been connected to asphalt roads.
But the village Lu Ming and Christine went to was very remote, in the Black Mountain Valley.
There is a mountain bike in the RV, so you can go on remote trails.
In addition, the RV is parked at the nearest location. I will stay in the RV tonight. Otherwise, I am afraid it will be midnight if I go back to Longgang County. Moreover, it is already five o'clock in the afternoon, and I am afraid that things will not be finished today.
Hearing Christine ask, Lu Ming smiled and said, "It's nothing. What about you? You look surprised all the time."
"I didn't expect that there are asphalt roads in the northern countryside, but it seems that they were repaired after you came." Christine nodded approvingly: "That's great, little guy. Those who can benefit the crowd are all
Worthy of praise!”
Lu Ming stretched out his head helplessly, "Would you like to rub my head and praise me? Mom?!"
Christine smiled slightly, turned to look at the scenery outside, and ignored him.
…
Sunset Valley Village is a mountain village. In the past, villagers mostly made a living by hunting. Although there is farmland in the valley, it often takes one year to plant and two years to cultivate. Otherwise, the fertility is not enough and there is no harvest at all.
Sunset Valley Village used to be a place outside the country's jurisdiction, with fierce folk customs. It was also called "Thieves Village" in the past. As the name suggests, the village itself is inseparable from the early thieves and later mountain bandits. There are many bandits in Lao Jackal's group.
Qingzhuang comes from this village.
People in Longgang outside the mountains have a bad impression of this village. No one has ever considered this village to be under Longgang rule.
Until General Lu wiped out all the bandits, this village was classified as Shanning District.
In Longgang, Lu Ming set up a test field. The entire Longgang County countryside was divided into twenty-three districts. Each district has an average of four to five thousand people. Depending on the geographical environment, there are districts with about a thousand people and large districts with ten thousand people.
.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Each district elects a "Civil Affairs Committee" to govern itself, and the committee is actually parallel to the "Municipal Committee" of Longgang, and does not have a superior-subordinate relationship.
These "civil affairs committees" and "municipal committees" basically have no power and are more like service organizations.
Taxation and other matters are integrated from top to bottom, and tax authorities are stationed locally.
The police department is also an integrated entity, and local committees have no jurisdiction.
There are summary procedure courts in each district, and Longgang District Court hears complex cases.
However, Lu Ming only implemented this East China Sea system in Longgang to see the effects of the experimental field first.
Lu Ming is still very confident in Longgang's control. If the effect is not good, he can just change it back.
Sunset Valley Village belongs to Shanning District, but the mountain residents in this village, except for going to the market to sell mountain goods and buy daily necessities, have basically no contact with the outside world, let alone participate in the election of the civil affairs committee of Shanning District.
It was the first election at the beginning of the year, and no one among the candidates for the Civil Affairs Committee went to the mountains to canvass for votes.
There are more than 3,000 people in Shanning District, and four civil affairs committee members have been elected. The committee basically has no staff. The four people divide the work and manage everything. There is nothing they need to manage, and they are very free. However, the salary is also symbolic.
They also want a reputation, and when they actually do it, they feel completely different from what they imagined.
When I went into the mountains today, I was accompanied by a committee member named Du Dewang. He was an old man in his seventies, but he was strong and could walk as fast as he could on the more than ten miles of mountain road.
Lu Ming's car parked at Xiaoheyan Village outside the mountains, where the Shanning District Civil Affairs Committee is located. Du Dewang is also a squire in the village.
Originally, the old gentleman was very reserved. He felt that he was in a different world to these two young lawyers in their twenties, and there was nothing to talk about.
But after chatting with Lu Ming, he gradually became interested. When he talked about the situation of the committee, he felt all sorts of new.
"Are you tired? Do you want me to carry you?" Lu Ming looked at Christine beside him.
Hearing from Du Dewang that there was a section of mountain road that had to be climbed and that was difficult for mountain bikes to pass, Lu Ming was a little reluctant. He was mainly worried that Christine would be too tired, but Christine insisted on going.
She changed into hiking clothes in the RV, into elegant blue and white hiking clothes, holding a hiking pole and wearing fashionable sunglasses. Christine became more and more a young and energetic girl.
"Not tired!" Christine shook her head.
"After passing the front, it's a downhill road, and we're almost there!" Du Dewang pointed to the narrow mountain road ahead. The slope of this section is very steep, and it may be forty or fifty degrees.
"Ah Qi, go and carry Miss Chris on your back." Lu Ming said to a thick and strong girl behind him.
Ah Qi's name is naturally Qing'e, and the one who used to carry a basket for Liuli was a super strong man.
After hearing that he was going to walk on a mountain road, Ah Qi bought a folding chair in Xiaoheyan Village and took it with him. If it was tied to the back, the owner could sit on it. However, the comfort was not as good as a special basket or a single person carrying a sedan chair.
, there must be too much difference.
"No, it's good to exercise!" Christine smiled, "I often go hiking, but I heard that you are very weak, so it seems that's not the case!"
Lu Ming rubbed his nose, as if it was difficult to reverse his reputation as a weakling. He coughed and said, "I exercise regularly and my physical strength is much better now."
