"My dear, the port of Colomba is ahead. What is that dark area there?!"
Mary on the boat looked at the looming port in the distance and asked Tangning.
"That should be the welcoming crowd."
Tangning had seen many scenes like this in her past life and made a quick judgment.
"Well, we are indeed welcoming the crowd." After Tangning raised her binoculars to observe, she gave her own judgment full marks.
"My dear, it seems that our royal family is indeed very popular, and your rule is widely recognized by the Brazilian people."
"Of course, I am Brazil's hunk from heaven!" Tangning boasted unceremoniously.
"Without my appearance, Brazil's future will be dark, and it will not be able to fulfill its talents as a great country. Because of my appearance, Brazil's history will be turned upside down."
After inspecting and staying in Cuiaba for three days, amid the warm farewell of the people, the Brazilian royal family left Cuiaba, the capital of Mato Grosso state under the Central Region, and set sail for the next stop in the South Region of the South.
Mato Grosso.
Mato Grosso do Sul covers an area of 357,000 square kilometers and is an administrative region separated from the original Mato Grosso state.
The state is bordered to the west by the former Republic of Bolivia and the Republic of Paraguay, and is a veritable borderland. However, these two countries have now been controlled and annexed by Brazil, and it is now the heartland of Brazil.
Most of this state is located on the southwest edge of the Brazilian Plateau; the central part runs through the Maracaju Mountains, with an average altitude of 300-400 meters, and is the watershed of the Paraguay River and the Paraná River; the western part is the floodplain of the upper reaches of the Paraguay River, with low-lying terrain and high altitude.
It is only 90-120 meters long, forming a swamp at the border. The plateau has a dry and hot climate, and the vegetation is mainly shrubland with alternating grasslands; the floodplain has a hot and humid climate, with many grassland pastures, and deciduous forests in the south.
The capital of Mato Grosso do Sul is Campo Grande, but the largest city is Columba. The economy is now mainly based on agriculture and animal husbandry. Cattle are raised in the western lowlands. The surrounding area centered on Campo Grande is rich in coffee and rice.
, cotton, sugar cane, corn, etc. Dorados in the south is a key area for Brazil's coffee planting industry. The state's resources contain gold, manganese, diamond, nickel, iron, platinum and other minerals, making it one of the mineral-rich areas in Brazil.
one.
The environment of Mato Grosso do Sul is similar to that of Guangdong and Guangxi. Because of its vast territory and sparse population, it lacks manpower, so it has become a gathering area for Eastern Cantonese immigrants and southern Italians.
Mato Grosso in the Central Region, Mato Grosso do Sul in the Southern Region, the Principality of Paraguay, and Alto Chaco. These four regions in the Paraguay River Basin are the future Central Engine of Brazil, the country’s three major
One of the core.
In terms of immigrant distribution, people from Guangdong and Guangxi, southern Italians, and other immigrants adapted to the high-heat climate were resettled in Mato Grosso, Mato Grosso do Sul, and Alto Chaco. People from Jianghuai, northern Italians,
The Japanese and other people were unified and placed in the Principality of Paraguay.
Although except for Paraguay, which is undergoing large-scale development, the other three states are still developing agriculture, light industry, and heavy industry without large-scale deployment, and they are only deployed in the Columba region.
There are a large amount of iron ore resources near Colomba, which forms the southern corner of Brazil's Iron Four. The area is rich in water resources and is located at the intersection of rivers. External communication is extremely convenient, so it was selected as an industrial zone.
Columba in Mato Grosso do Sul, together with the Principality of Paraguay downstream, is currently one of the key investment areas in Brazil, in addition to coastal industrial areas, where real investment is made, and is operated as a national industrial center.
The Paraguay River Basin is simply an industrial paradise given by God to South America. It has many iron ore producing areas such as the Urugong Mining Area and the Mutong Mining Area. The iron ore reserves are hundreds of billions of tons. Each of these large mining areas does not cost less than 40 billion.
Ton.
Brazil is now a resource-exporting country. Iron ore sales are very good, and mining areas are widely distributed. However, there is one thing. Tangning only sells some large mines close to the coast that are easy to transport, and does not sell any large mines in the interior.
There is a limit to selling resources. A truly industrial country has no future in getting rich by selling minerals.
It is impossible for Brazil to follow the old path of selling resources. Tang Ning temporarily sold resources in exchange for technology and funds.
When the people on the ship discovered the harbor, the Columba people in the harbor also discovered the arrival of the royal ship.
Columba, a city with a population of just over 100,000, almost came to the port today to welcome His Majesty the King.
Columba has always considered itself better than Campo Grande, but unfortunately it was not made the capital due to geographical reasons.
This time the royal family went on tour. Campo Grande was not included in the plan, but Columba was included. This made the people of this city very excited.
"Woo~"
Amid the eager expectations of the people, the royal ship finally arrived at the port.
The moment they docked at the port, the originally exciting music became even louder. The crowd waved their arms and shouted slogans with joy, expressing their warm welcome to the royal family.
"Long live the King!"
"Welcome the King and Queen to Columba."
"Welcome Your Majesty the King!"
…
After the welcome ceremony, Tang Ning, who had expressed her closeness to the people, quickly summoned municipal officials to the station to discuss local development.
"Hassan, tell me about the development of Columba. First tell me about the population."
The mayor of Columba, an important inland industrial city, Hassan, was naturally appointed by Tang Ning.
Brazil is developing very fast, and Tang Ning pays attention to many things. Although Columba is important, there are not many others that are more important than him, or even more important. Therefore, while in Rio de Janeiro, Tang Ning did not have many opportunities to pay attention to Columba.
A relatively important city.
During this tour, Tang Ning planned a large circle and passed through many key cities. In fact, it was largely to understand local development.
If she was just in a hurry to go to the ancient Inca city to be crowned emperor and reach the pinnacle of honor, Tangning wouldn't have needed more than nine months of planning time.
"Your Majesty, the current population of Colomba city exceeds 100,000. Of the total population, 45% are immigrants from the East, 30% are from Italy, 12% are from other European countries, 10% are from Southeast Asia, and 3%
From India.”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "In less than half a year, more than 40,000 people immigrated, which is not a small number. Have their living conditions been arranged?"
Tang Ning introduced these people because he planned to treat them as his own subjects, not slaves for exploitation.
These people are valuable labor force, but he is not prepared to use them as slaves. He will never allow excessive exploitation to cause hatred. These people and their descendants are all Brazilians.
Ethnic conflicts, discrimination and oppression, Tangning will never allow these things to exist.
They are not noble Angsa people, Portuguese, Italians, Orientals, or even Indians. How can there be so many differences?
Brazilian officials do not engage in racial classification or ethnic identification at all. They only conduct statistics by checking the origin areas of immigrants in the early stages.
Once the people are settled in Brazil, the Brazilian officials will definitely not conduct any ethnic census. Once you come to Brazil, you will become one family.
To learn from the American emperor, Tang Ning only learned it after her brain was beaten.
"Your Majesty, they all have resettlement houses with a standard living area of 65 square meters and simple furniture. We have arranged the work and they have entered the formal process."
"How do they feel about Brazil?"
"The immigrants are grateful to the king and the government. They are very grateful to the Kingdom of Brazil for providing them with living conditions and getting them out of the sea of misery."
"Are there any dissatisfied people?"
"Your Majesty has some dissatisfactions. Some people are greedy for a lot and will complain from time to time."
"I will deport all those greedy and dissatisfied people." Tangning would not tolerate such dissatisfied people.
"Your Majesty, we all act in accordance with your instructions. Those who are dissatisfied will be sent back to their original places. There will be no black sheep left."
"How is the industry? Let's talk about steel first. Columba is a key industrial city. How is the output now?"
Steel is the foundation of a country. Columba is an industrial city in national planning, and it is a heavy industrial city.
Tangning, she still values this city very seriously. From now on, this city will be one of the engines of the Paraguay River Industrial Zone.
"The steel plant was built in mid-March, and the output has increased every month. In April, the iron output was 25,100 tons, the steel output was 13,500 tons, and the special steel output was 3,535.22 tons. In the most recent May, the iron output was 28,300 tons, and the steel output was 28,300 tons.
The output is 14,600 tons, and the output of special steel is 3,612.25 tons."
The output of the steel plant is adequate, and Tang Ning is very satisfied with this output.
The current steel plant in Columba is not comparable to that of later generations. This is the situation in this era. Technology restricts output. Tang Ning is not an expert in engineering and does not know that much. What he tries to do is to let Brazil learn and catch up.
