Chapter 1560 The global invincibility is so powerful
Large comprehensive industrial and commercial cities like Shanghai and Guangzhou need to be strong and have policies. People can flourish everywhere and do anything. It doesn't matter if they mess up one or two aspects occasionally.
But other places cannot have such superior conditions to do everything. If something goes wrong, everything will be lost.
As the saying goes, two birds in the bush are worth less than one in the hand!
You want everything, but you get nothing!
There are actually many such examples. For example, in Fujian, people are also vigorously developing the tea industry. Tea planting, processing, and trade have become the economic pillar industries of almost the entire Fujian Province.
The tea industry chain in northern Zhejiang, represented by Fujian and Ningbo, has become the two largest tea production and processing bases in the country, and they are also each other's biggest competitors.
There is also Lingao County in Qiongzhou Prefecture, Guangdong. In the past 20 years, they have done nothing else but focus on the fishery industry to become bigger and stronger.
The consequence of this was that there was at most only one Erjiu Fishing Company in Lingao County back then.
But now, a small county in Lingao District accounts for at least 20% of the national fishery output value in terms of fishery-related output value, although this figure is limited to seafood and does not include freshwater fishery industry.
However, you have to know that many coastal areas in the country are basically engaged in fishing, especially some coastal cities that have no special advantages, and they regard fishing as their main industry.
However, even in this situation, a poor place like Lingao still accounts for more than 20% of the national fishery output value in terms of fishery-related output value, which shows its strength.
At the same time, in recent years, Lingao has also vigorously developed the whale industry, organizing large ships to go out to sea to catch whales, and then processing various whale products for sale. In order to catch whales, Erjiu Fishery Company has invested at least 200,000 yuan in custom-made professional services over the years.
Whaling ships, training relevant personnel, establishing processing plants, etc., led by Erjiu Fishery Company, has established a complete whale industry chain.
Because Lingao's companies were early in the whale industry and invested heavily in whale-related products, Lingao's major companies combined basically monopolized more than 90% of the country's whale products.
Relevant markets.
There are many more examples of these, and they are basically those that focus on an industry until death, and finally gain a dominant position.
Lingao's fishery, Fujian's tea, Huzhou's raw silk industry, and Dangtu's steel industry are basically the same routine, and they can often achieve good results. Well, the premise is that you go the right way.
If you take the wrong path and dive in headfirst, the end will naturally not be good.
But it’s much better than having a hammer here and there!
When inspecting Ningbo, Li Xuan expressed his affirmation of Ningbo's economic development, which made the local civil servants very happy. After inspecting Ningbo's industrial and commercial economy, he naturally would not forget to stop by to see the local naval base.
Ningbo is also one of the important bases of the Tang Navy. Although Wusong Port at the estuary of the Yangtze River is the largest military port of the Tang Navy in the central waters of the empire, due to the huge scale of the imperial navy and the huge sea area that needs to be controlled,
It is said that a mere Wusong Port Naval Base is naturally not enough.
Therefore, the Ningbo Zhoushan Naval Base next door is not only the base of the Datang Navy, but also the location of the Third Fleet and the branch of Haixuetang.
The Zhoushan Naval Base is actually the entire Zhoushan Islands. After the navy eliminated pirates in this archipelago, it established a naval base here.
Later, the scale of the naval base became larger and larger, and later it was simply used as a training facility for the Imperial Navy. The Third Fleet of the Reserve Fleet moved directly here. On Zhoushan Island, there is also a branch of the Naval Sea Academy.
Generally speaking, after Haixuetang students complete the first two years of basic theoretical studies at the Jinling campus, they will go to the Zhoushan campus for internship teaching in the third year.
When Li Xuan inspected the local navy, he also went to the Zhoushan branch of Haixuetang to have a look. On the way, he also watched the training of many training ships of the Third Fleet.
Compared with the many problems related to people's livelihood and economy, the military did not have any issues that Li Xuan paid attention to.
This is true for the army, and so is the navy. Their tactics, equipment, etc. are all at the forefront of other countries around the world.
To put it bluntly, the only one who can defeat the Tang Empire militarily is the Tang Empire itself.
Globally invincible, so powerful!
Therefore, the military does not need to worry too much about Li Xuan. The main thing is to maintain the interests of the military services and the balance of interests among the military bosses.
As for the next time Li Xuan focuses on the navy, I am afraid it will be the time when the navy plans to build the kind of steel and steam warships of seven to eight thousand tons or even tens of thousands of tons that are still under design.
Now, Li Xuan is too lazy to pay attention to too many messy issues, even if the admirals of the Third Fleet say that several training ships of the Third Fleet are old ships and cannot be reused, these are all
It was an internal problem within the navy, and Li Xuan was too lazy to intervene directly.
The Navy has its own established plans to build capital ships, secondary warships, and various auxiliary ships, including training ships. Interfering indiscriminately will break the balance within the Navy.
Besides, this tour is mainly for domestic economic issues related to people's livelihood.
Li Xuan needs to go to various parts of the country to see with his own eyes what the empire under his rule has become, and then make targeted adjustments.
Military issues were not the focus of Li Xuan's inspection this time. At most, he just stopped by for an inspection.
After leaving Ningbo, the imperial special train returned to Hangzhou again, but it did not stay in Hangzhou for long, only more than an hour. Li Xuan did not even get off the train. After completing the supplies, the special train continued its journey and arrived in Huzhou.
Here, Li Xuan's special train stopped, but it was expected to be only for one night. Li Xuan did not intend to go to Huzhou for inspection. He also did not get off the train. He just met with local military and political officials on the special train to encourage them.
After a while.
Early the next morning, while Li Xuan was still sleeping, the special train started again and then slowly headed towards Jinling City!
The special train's route from Ningbo back to Jinling City did not take the original railway line through Shanghai, Suzhou, and Zhenjiang, but took the Jingning Line of the Jiangnan Railway.
After arriving in Hangzhou from Ningbo, we went north to Huzhou, then passed through Guangde and returned to Chengtian Mansion. However, Chengtian Mansion was actually very big, so the special train had to travel for a while before returning to Jinling City.
According to the planned formation, the first half of this holy tour plan has been completed, the eastward tour, followed by the westward tour and the northern tour.
Li Xuan did not return to Jinling City for long. The preparation work for this patrol was too great. Even after returning to Jinling City, the special train group was not actually disbanded.
In fact, the special train only stayed in Jinling City for three days before starting again and heading west along the Jiangnan Railway.
In the past three days, Li Xuan took the time to focus on a batch of official duties. After arranging many other matters, he continued the tour plan.
The imperial special train passed through Dangtu that day, but it did not stop.
When Tu Lixuan went there many times, it was at least ten times. Basically, he would go once every year or two, even when the railway was not opened before.
Nowadays, he is in a hurry to go on patrol, so Li Xuan naturally will not waste time in Dangtu, which he is already familiar with, but skips Dangtu and goes straight to Wuhu.
I stayed in Wuhu for more than two hours because I needed to replenish coal and water. In addition, in the past, Li Xuan only went to Dangtu Industrial Zone. He had never been to Wuhu, which is dozens of kilometers away, so
So I stayed for an extra two hours.
Taking advantage of these two hours, Li Xuan got off the train as if he were just looking around, and then walked around Wuhu City, talking with local officials on the way.
Two hours later, Li Xuan got on the special train again and left Wuhu, then stopped in Chizhou and spent the night here!
However, when staying in such a small place, even though it is for one night, Li Xuan usually does not leave the special train, but stays directly in the special train, briefly meets with local officials, then rests for one night, and continues his journey the next day.
, all the way to the mouth of Jiujiang Lake.
After arriving at Hukou, Jiujiang, Li Xuan took a steam unicycle at Hukou, crossed Poyang Lake, and then arrived at Jiujiang City, where he briefly inspected Jiujiang.
The next day, we continued our journey south.
By this time, special trains had already started running on the Southern Railway operated by the South China Railway Company.
The many railway branches under Datang Railway Corporation have been constantly changing over the years, some have been split up, and some have been merged. However, these branches are basically wholly owned by Datang Railway Corporation, and they are also
Before it was listed, the railway company wanted to go public and sell its equity. However, businessmen at that time would rather borrow money than invest directly. Later, when the benefits of railways came out, businessmen wanted to invest, but the Railway Corporation
Reluctant.
So so far, although Datang Railway Corporation owes tens of millions in debt, the equity of its head office and its affiliated railway branches remains 100% owned by the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises, and there has been no outflow of shares.
!
But then again, at present, the equity of the major branches of Datang Railway Corporation are basically mortgaged for loans...
The Royal Bank, Imperial Development Bank, Zhili Textile Bank and other medium and large banks are all creditors of Datang Railway Corporation. Once it cannot repay the money, most of the shares of Datang Railway Corporation will fall into the hands of these banks.
Inside.
However, unless Li Xuan falls, this kind of thing is unlikely to happen.
