Chapter 767: In Lviv (top)

In winter, Lviv is covered in silver, making the whole city much more attractive. But today's Lviv is more lively. Military police are on duty around, and many people on both sides of the street are holding national flags and cheering for the passing convoy.

And Edel was in the convoy, and he was in the car with the mayor of Lviv, Osbic. This time Edel took time out of his busy schedule to come to Lviv, mainly because of his emphasis on this heavy industrial city.

"Your Majesty, at present, Lviv's steel and petrochemical industries are the most abundant, followed by machinery manufacturing, and then other heavy industry production. In light industry, the textile industry is the most stressed."

The mayor of Cheriosbik is reporting to Edel about the current industrial production in Lviv. Because he knew that Edel's visit this time must have a lot to do with the decline in Lviv's industrial production capacity this year.

The output value of Lviv’s industry this year has decreased by 5-15% compared with last year. Among them, the light industry has decreased the most, followed by other industries not related to military industry. As for the important steel, petroleum, and machinery manufacturing industries, the decrease Not much, but still somewhat lower.

Among other things, Lviv's steel output this year was 4.21 million tons, which is 210,000 tons lower than last year. Although the number of workers in the steel plant has not dropped much, it still has a great impact on raw materials and transportation.

This is still the main focus of attention of industries such as the steel and petroleum industry. As for other industries, it is even more miserable. In particular, the service industry has suffered a considerable loss, which has now been reduced to 64% of its employees. This is only the situation in industry, and the situation in agricultural production is even worse.

As more troops are recruited from rural areas, the number of agricultural workers is currently decreasing. At present, the number of agricultural workers in Romania has dropped from 11.34 million to 10.47 million. Half of the lost population is in the army, and most of them are male young adults.

If it is to be said that Romania's highest priority is to ensure production, agricultural machinery is definitely the first. Among them, the Lviv Second Machinery Manufacturing Plant, which is the main agricultural machinery, has reduced its tank production from the highest peak of 45 vehicles to the current 24 vehicles. All other production capacity is the production of tractors to help agriculture reduce production due to population loss.

As for other industries, the extractive industry has expanded to a certain extent due to the war. At present, the extractive industry has increased from 1.13 million employees to 1.2 million employees. Because many resources in Romania currently need to be mined by themselves.

As for manufacturing, the Romanian manufacturing industry currently employs 10.76 million people, which is 130,000 fewer than before. The main area of ​​reduction is mainly light industry. At present, domestic people's living needs have been suppressed due to wartime.

Therefore, the scale of light industry has also been suppressed to a certain extent, whether it is in raw materials or transportation and circulation basins, it is ranked behind.

Moreover, the government is mobilizing more women into factories to liberate the male labor force and satisfy the needs of the military.

At present, the number of Romanian troops mobilized has reached 2.6 million. The rapid growth is that the mobilization has been increased from the beginning, and the plan made by the military is to mobilize to 3 million by June 1940. In order to increase the mobilization efforts, Romania has now recruited the fourth batch, mainly males 20-35 years old without disabilities. The militiamen and reserve forces previously enlisted have been mobilized, and the fourth batch of mobilization is mainly to use them as supplementary troops to supplement the damaged and dissatisfied troops.

No one is spared from this war, every manpower must be squeezed out.

Of course, we must not forget the Jews that were exchanged. At present, there are more than 1.5 million Jews sent from Germany and Italy. With Germany’s collection in Poland, it is expected that within three months, Germany will send them. 500,000 Jews. And these Jews can free many workers from heavy work.

And this is already very good for the Jews, and they always want to go back to the concentration camp. Although I was a little tired from coming to Romania, at least my life was safe. Of course, those who are useful to Romania will definitely be selected.

In addition, the current number of employees in commercial finance is continuing to decline. Currently, Romania’s employment is only 1.81 million, which is 310,000 less than before. This also has a lot to do with Romania’s not being too prosperous in this regard, and of course it also has a lot to do with whether the government has too much support.

But in the transportation industry, that is another picture. At present, the Romanian transportation and communication industry is growing rapidly even during the war. Of course, transportation needs to be controlled during wartime, but it still does not affect the prosperity of the transportation industry.

Edel came here this time because Lviv is too important in Romania. Before obtaining a new heavy industrial base, the importance of Eastern Galicia to Romania is the most important.

"Mayor Osbic and the efforts of Lviv's development are in my eyes. These are unavoidable."

Edel comforted the mayor in front of him, so that he didn't have to worry too much.

Because Edel also knew that industry and agriculture in any country would be affected during the war. Romania’s previous semi-mobilization system has been in full production. It can be said that Romania’s current advantages are due to Romania’s advance mobilization.

Of course, Romania is much better than a poor German government. The German government is on the verge of bankruptcy all the year round. It can be said that war is the only way out.

However, the semi-mobilization system has actually emptied Romania’s finances. If the war does not come in another year, Romania will also follow in the footsteps of Germany, and there is only one way to go bankrupt. It can be said that Germany will not fight, and Romania must fight one year later, because Romania does not have much money financially.

Of course, this is why ~lightnovelpub.net~ Romania, with the strength of the world's fifth industrialized country, was able to make a splash in the early stage, because this is the result of Romania's accumulated possessions over the years.

And Edel's motorcade drove through the city into the suburbs, this time it seemed to have a broad view. On both sides of the road, there are more factories that are protected by walls, and the mayor of Osbic is constantly introducing Edel.

"Please look at your majesty. This is the Lasser Machinery Factory. The wire drawing machines produced by this factory are sold all over the world. However, due to the outbreak of the war, the factory is trying to transfer to military industry."

"This is the Luoer Textile Factory. The canvas produced by this factory is used in all walks of life. However, the current production capacity of the factory has been absorbed by the military industry, mainly producing backpacks and lanyards."

"this is……"

On his way to the Second Machinery Manufacturing Factory, the mayor kept introducing the factories along the road. It can be seen that the mayor is very familiar with this, and a lot of data is readily available.

In the introduction of the mayor, Edel came to the door of the Second Machinery Manufacturing Factory.
