Red Alert 1895

Chapter 763: Municipality (below)

Hearing Wang Guorui's questioning of the significance of the establishment of municipalities in Quanzhou and Taipei, someone immediately explained it, and this reason almost made Wang Guorui faint.

"Your Majesty, Quanzhou is your ancestral home, your majesty, and that is the land of Longxing! And the land of Longxing is intended to be one of the capital cities, and Quanzhou is the birthplace of the emperor, the real dragon emperor. Why? Can it be ignored? And Taipei is the place where the emperor started his family, and it is the land of Longxing! Since ancient times, the land of Longxing has been listed as an important capital, even if it is not the capital, it is also listed as an accompanying capital, so Quanzhou and Taipei It should be listed as a municipality directly under the Central Government. Since ancient times, the land of the emperor's Longxing, isn't it always like this?"

"Yeah, when Li Tang was in Taiyuan, Li Tang flourished in Taiyuan, so Taiyuan is also the land of Longxing, and it was listed as Taiyuan Prefecture. Its status is the same as that of Chang'an Luoyang, not an ordinary prefecture. During the Song Dynasty, Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin once lived in the Song Dynasty. Songzhou served as Jiedushi, so Songzhou also became the land of Longxing in the Song Dynasty, and the name of the country in the Song Dynasty also came from this way. Songzhou was also promoted to Yingtianfu, and later became the Four Capitals The same is true of the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty almost regarded Fengyang as the capital, and later promoted it to Fengyang Mansion, known as the capital. Therefore, the land of Longxing is even more meaningful. Is this Isn't it very important?"

Many people came out to agree, and they were obviously touting the so-called Land of Longxing here, hoping that Wang Guorui could list Quanzhou and Taipei as so-called municipalities directly under the Central Government and gain a higher status. This is also a consistent practice throughout the dynasties, so it is not surprising.

"Crack!" Wang Guorui slapped the table hard, and then said angrily, "Have you said enough?"

All the officials were taken aback by Wang Guorui's anger, and obviously felt that Wang Guorui was really angry this time. Wang Guorui seldom slapped the table so angrily, but now he slapped the table, so he was obviously very angry.

"It's enough of you to talk about these useless things. The land of Longxing? You talk nonsense without checking whether it meets the requirements. You actually want to flatter me and do this. You know that the establishment of a municipality directly under the central government means What? It means a large amount of investment, it means a lot of changes. It means the overall situation of the national strategy. Is it interesting that you use this kind of thing to flatter and flatter? You can’t do something practical, and you are here to flatter , even talking nonsense about such an important matter as the establishment of a municipality directly under the central government. How do you ask me to believe you?" Wang Guorui said angrily.

Wang Guorui was really angry. These guys actually used this method of establishing a municipality directly under the Central Government to please Wang Guorui, thinking that the establishment of a municipality directly under the Central Government in the land of Longxing is a good thing, and then it can be regarded as flattery. But don't these guys know that the meaning of setting up a municipality is very different! The political significance brought by a municipality is completely different. The impact is completely different. Once a municipality is established, the country's appropriation and various status treatments are completely similar to the status of a province.

Therefore, municipalities directly under the central government are not so easy to set up casually. Almost all countries except the capital rarely set up so-called municipalities directly under the central government. For what, isn't it necessary to be cautious? This kind of municipality cannot be established casually, once established it will inevitably cause a series of changes.

In good conscience, both Taipei and Quanzhou are not suitable for establishing municipalities directly under the Central Government. At present, the most important resource provider of the empire is in Nanyang, and Taipei is no longer available as a key investment target. After all, Taiwan's resources are too few, and Taiwan's resources have severely restricted further development in the future. If a so-called municipality is established, is it necessary to continue to invest money in vain? Quanzhou does not have such important strategic significance. Although Quanzhou is a major trading port, its military and political significance cannot be compared with other cities at all. Moreover, the geographical location of Quanzhou is not suitable, and the population is seriously below the standard. With Wang Guorui taking control of Nanyang, Quanzhou's strategic position in history has been weakened by more than half, and it cannot become a city of important strategic significance.

But these guys actually use this kind of thinking to measure, and think that Quanzhou and Taiwan, which should be the land of Longxing, should be established as municipalities directly under the central government, so that they can obtain higher political and economic status. This is obviously flattering, so this guy is flattering. Wang Guorui was tolerant of flattery. But the problem is don't flatter too much, if it is too much, Wang Guorui will not be happy. Instead, you will be angry. The establishment of this kind of municipality can be used as a reason to flatter, that is really absurd. If a municipality is established just for the sake of flattery for a while, it will cost a lot in the future.

The status of a municipality is treated as a province. So all kinds of investment in the next step will be completely in vain. The local development conditions do not have this kind of potential at all, and it is completely half the effort to get twice the result with half the effort. Moreover, the investment in the next few decades or hundreds of years will be a bottomless pit. For a momentary flattery. Unexpectedly, the cost is the financial investment of decades to hundreds of years in the future, so Wang Guorui was completely angry. You flatter, can't you use your own money? But the price of this flattery is the financial investment in the next few decades or hundreds of years, and the price is extremely huge. These guys don't spend their own money to invest, and then spend the country's finances for decades or hundreds of years in the future. resources to flatter. Therefore, Wang Guorui really couldn't accept such a costly flattery!

Wang Guorui doesn't believe that they don't know the cost after the establishment of the so-called municipality. Once the municipality is established, the cost will be very high, especially the cost of capital resources investment. It will be extremely huge. At that time, all the money will be spent The water is gone. Wang Guorui didn't believe that these guys didn't know, but they did it anyway, wouldn't it hurt to spend other people's money?

"You bastards, be more pragmatic in the future, don't give me such nonsense. If it was the farming era in the past, then I wouldn't say anything, because it's the same with more investment and less investment. But now it's the industrial age. If it’s just for temporary flattery, a lot of money will be invested in it. What will happen in the end? In the industrial age, more things are invested, and the cost is also higher. Once excessive funds are invested in a place that is not suitable for development , then in the end it can only be half the effort with half the effort, or even in vain. In the industrial age, the whole country can be affected by one hair, so how can you do it casually? You are flattering now, but in the future, you will let future generations and the people of the whole country To bear the consequences? At that time, the huge amount of capital investment will have no effect, are you interested? It really doesn't cost your money, you don't feel sad!" Wang Guorui snorted.

"I'm dead!" Someone came out to intercede immediately.

Wang Guorui quickly said: "Your salary, your salary, your people's fat and people's anointing, this is something that Song Taizu also knew. You collected taxes from the people, and didn't think about how to benefit the people, but here you are holding the money of so many people in the future." People's fat and people's anointing to please me? It's nothing more than to please, you have to see the price behind it clearly. It is really unreasonable that such a thing as the establishment of a municipality can be used as a joke. It’s not beneficial to the country, it’s not beneficial to the people, it’s not beneficial to me, understand? Everything should be done in the interests of the country, not for the benefit of me and my family.”

"When you govern in the future, don't always think about what the emperor and leaders like, but think about what the people need!"

It is unreasonable for Wang Guorui to go back to his hometown to intensify construction after becoming an emperor, and then blindly invest in it regardless of the so-called reality. And this kind of project is nothing more than a face project for a certain leader, but the price is also borne by the whole country. And I have never seen how much investment was made in Yan'an, the so-called "Land of Dragon Xing" after the founding of the People's Republic of China in later generations! Especially in the industrial age, one hair will affect the whole body. If the investment is increased in a certain place that is not suitable for investment, it will inevitably cause a series of chain reactions in the end, and it will really be the end~lightnovelpub.net~So In this era, how can governing be so easy, and how can it be as casual as it used to be? With the development of the times, all aspects must be considered, and it is not necessary to consider farming education and the army as in the past. In this era, every aspect has to be considered, and there are far more things to consider than in the past. So be careful with every step, don't just slap your head and get it out.

Immediately, someone began to shout: "Your Majesty is wise! Your Majesty is indeed a wise master once in three thousand years. He can put the interests of the country first, and then ignore personal gains and losses. He is indeed a wise master of a generation! And the emperor can not care about his hometown. Instead, he puts the people first, so he is truly a wise king!"

"Your Majesty is a holy man! Your Majesty regards the whole world as his hometown, instead of narrowly treating Quanzhou as his hometown. Your Majesty's level is so high that we cannot match it. The whole world is your Majesty." The hometown of the emperor, we really admire the open-mindedness of the emperor!"

After hearing this, Wang Guorui immediately said: "Retire from the court, go to your own business, and stop flattering. Think more about what the people need!"

"Okay, we're leaving the court!" Jun Zhixian, who was in charge of court affairs, immediately asked the female secretaries of the peripheral secretarial bureaus to guide the ministers to leave. (To be continued.)
