Chapter 536: The shadow of the economic crisis

Romania's New Deal has begun various constructions under the strong push of the government.

In February 1930, the Bucharest-Odessa railway started.

In April, the Bucharest, Constanta, and Varna circular railways started construction.

In June, the construction of the Constanta to Békéscsau-Baoduo railway started.

In July, the construction of the Békéscsaba-Lviv railway, which is the most difficult to construct, began.

In just half a year, Romania is like entering a large construction site, and infrastructure is being built everywhere. These infrastructures range from tunnels and bridges, power stations and railways, to irrigation canals and rural dirt roads. At this moment, Romania is busy with these infrastructure constructions.

Since everyone is so busy, Karaturi, who is the highest person in charge of the government, is no exception. Now as soon as he opened his eyes, there were a lot of things waiting for him to deal with. In the prime minister's office, the secretary is reporting to Karatuuri what he needs to deal with at the moment.

"The Prime Minister, the report sent by Transsiniva Province, claimed that the construction materials they currently store are not enough to support the various construction tasks of the province. I hope the government can coordinate a sum of materials and supplies to the province."

Karatuuri felt a little strange after listening to the secretary's words, so he asked. "This is directly transferred to the construction department, how come it is put in my place?"

"Isn't it because Li Dier, the Minister of Communications, went down to inspect, and the other people who can take care of this matter are not in Bucharest, so they were transferred to you.

The secretary's explanation relieved Karaturi. Now the large-scale infrastructure construction across the country keeps people from the Ministry of Communications too busy, and it is completely normal for some things to be transferred to themselves for review.

So after listening to the secretary's explanation, Karaturi picked up the report and reviewed it. In fact, Transylvania doesn't need much, only 30,000 tons of cement, 20,000 tons of steel, plus some other materials.

It seems that there are not many supplies in Karatu, but it seems to be very good in Transsini Waka.

It's pitiful, although Transylvania has a very high strategic position in Romania, but when it comes to economic development, it is a bit of tears, which makes people sad. Since the province was liberated, the province has received very little financial support from the government, except for some assistance like pepper noodles at the beginning. From the previous development of Western Galicia to the later infrastructure construction plan, Transylova Province is the one with the least share. This has disappointed the two million people in the province.

However, it cannot be blamed for the government's low support for Transsiniva, as long as you open the map and see why this is the case. Transsiniva has almost rounded up the Carpathian Mountains in the country, and its territory is either mountainous or hilly. Moreover, the hilly areas adapted to human life only account for two-fifths of its territory. This makes it possible for the government that mainly develops the economy to invest a lot of money here.

It is a peaceful age and the importance of Transniva is not revealed. Only when the situation in Europe is turbulent, the importance of the region to Romania will be revealed. Therefore, the province’s economic growth has been in the bottom of the list over the years, and the areas that were still prosperous have gradually become unsupported. Of course, the government is also very clear about this, so take this opportunity to build a large amount of materials for the area. It is mainly used for water conservancy construction and road expansion.

After solving the problem of building materials in Transylova, Karatuuri continued to listen to the secretary's report on other tasks.

"Then there was an accident in Bacau County, Moldavia Province. When the road was built here, a landslide caused a landslide and 19 workers were killed."

Karatuuri's expression became serious when he heard that the accident had occurred. "How was the aftermath work done?"

Karaturi is not afraid of accidents, but now the construction projects can prevent accidents from happening. The most important thing is to appease the families of the victims and not cause delays in construction and dissatisfaction from other workers.

Obviously, the secretary also knows where Karaturi's focus is, so he said directly. "The local government has sent people to appease, and the pension has been adequate. The family members have done nothing except sadness."

"Which company was responsible for that project?"

No wonder Karatuuri asked like that. Because the current construction projects are too large to be undertaken by state-owned construction companies, they will inevitably release a lot of bids for private companies. These private construction companies come in all types, large and small. The Prime Minister is afraid that these private companies will only take care of them. Make money and don't care enough about workers.

The secretary turned out the information and said. "It's a construction company called Shirko. The company was founded by a local Gashko, but it had three more shareholders six months ago."

Karatuuri knew it should be a construction company composed of local government and businessmen. It is estimated that a local businessman gave the company that can determine the tenderer’s shares, and Karatuuli has seen this a lot. So he said. "Hit this company to make them pay attention to the safety of workers. If such a serious matter happens again, they will be disqualified."

"Okay, I'll post a question later."

"Anymore?"

Karaturi asked about the secretary.

"There is also a report on the decline of Polish exports."

The secretary said that he handed this report to him~lightnovelpub.net~ This was just done by the customs. "

Karatuuri looked at the export report and couldn't help saying, "How come it has dropped so much."

It turned out that in this report, Romania's exports to Poland fell by as much as 24%.

This economic crisis has gradually affected Europe, and now all countries have suffered heavy losses in the face of this crisis. A large number of unemployed workers also affects Poland’s most important food exports. The sluggish export of Poland naturally affects its consumption capacity. In the middle of 1930, Poland's imports and exports decreased by 18%, of which exports fell by 13.7% and imports fell by 28.4%.

As Romania's largest exporter, Poland's sharp decline in import and export trade has been most directly affected. A large number of orders from Poland have been cancelled, leaving these factories with insufficient operating rates. Fortunately, domestic consumption has not yet decreased, and the operation of these factories can be guaranteed. If the domestic economy is also in the downturn, it will be the most uncomfortable. I believe that many factories will be in danger of closing down by then.

So this made Karatuuri immediately feel the importance of this matter. After handling the other things in his hands, he immediately rushed to the palace. He planned to find King Edel to find a way.
