Chapter 67: Development zone

He solved the artificial problem, and Ferdinand was worried again.
How to establish a development zone? What industry is the core?
It is now the end of the 19th century, and certainly different from the 21st century, many industries have not yet been born.
Moreover, Bulgaria is only a small country with a population of about 3.5 million, which is about the same as the population of a previous city.
It doesn't matter which real estate economy, Internet economy, high-tech science parks, and tourism services are all connected to Bulgaria.
So Ferdinand's choice is only processing and manufacturing! Combined with the current industrial situation in Bulgaria, light industry is dominant, and heavy industry is still gestating. And in the light industry, food processing companies are at the core.
A bunch of food processing factories gathered together, that scene, Ferdinand can already think about it.
If it is being guided, the first development zone in Bulgaria in the future will be a gathering place for food, forming a food city.
Alas, this is just the beginning! It is easy to build a development zone, and Ferdinand can slap his head and decide; but to play the role of the development zone, we need to consider the issue more comprehensively.
Firstly, transportation must be convenient enough to meet transportation requirements. Secondly, safety must also be taken into consideration. The Balkans have always been "European powder kegs". If they are blown up, the threat of war must be considered. Third, human geography and water resources. , Industrial raw materials, etc. are also essential factors.
I checked around, and Ferdinand found that there are not many places in Bulgaria that meet the conditions!
Ferdinand will be even more busy next time, while looking up relevant information, but also trying to persuade high-level government.
After a few days of frustration, Ferdinand was still hesitant about the choice of the development zone, and finally decided to give up, leaving the trouble to the government.
"Constantin government, is not the most energetic government in the history of Bulgaria? Then I leave him a development zone, it must not be a problem!" Ferdinand thought irresponsibly
I was in the office, and Constantine, who was reviewing the progress of the Five-Year Plan, suddenly called a spray, "Ah, cut."
Assistant Ai knocked on the door, strode forward and said, "Mr. Minister, the palace has just called, and Grandpa asks you to go as soon as possible!"
I heard Ferdinand asked, Constantine put down the documents in his hand, and stood up and said to the assistant, "Well, I know. When you call back, you will say I'll go immediately!"
Uh ...
Constantine hurried over and met Ferdinand in the parlor, after a courteous greeting. He said doubtfully, "Her Excellency, what are you doing in such a hurry to find me?"
Jeff Ferdinand smiled and said, "You sit down first, Alice adds a cup of coffee to Constantine!"
Constantine did it slowly, but my heart was cold, and I thought to myself: It is good that the Grandpa is so polite! Is something wrong?
This is the experience summarized by Constantine, and also a fact recognized by high-level Bulgarians. Every time Ferdinand is polite to talk to people, it means that the next thing is very troublesome!
If Ferdinand knew that Constantine had orchestrated him like this, he would surely let him know what the majesty of the king is inviolable.
"Constantine, you find no, recently Bulgaria's economic growth has begun to decline!" Ferdinand asked in a positive tone
Constantine was startled, cold sweat was about to rise, and he was secretly distressed: "What economic growth rate has fallen? Bulgaria's economic growth is inherently abnormal. It is entirely dependent on government investment in infrastructure.
之前 "Before, the annual growth rate was as high as 20% at one time, which is totally against the laws of the market. Well, it is still because of the small plate in Bulgaria that this record can be created!"
"Which country in the world has the economic growth rate comparable to Bulgaria's now? Does the Grand Duke want to maintain this growth rate? No, we must stop him, and then the government must go bankrupt!"
Constantine looked at Ferdinand with a smile, and seemed determined to say, "Hey, Grand Duke, this is normal! In the past two years, the government has invested heavily in infrastructure and stimulated economic development. Create this record. "
"From the second half of this year, some of the projects in the One-Five Plan have begun to be completed. The government investment will definitely be greatly reduced in the later period, and the Bulgarian economy will gradually normalize in the future!"
Of course, Jeff Ferdinand is aware of this problem. Now government investment accounts for three layers in Bulgaria's total domestic investment.
If the government abruptly stops infrastructure investment, Bulgaria's economy, not to mention continued growth, will be able to keep it from falling, a miracle.
Ferdinand looked at Constantine with a smile and said, "You're right, now that the Bulgarian economy is booming on the surface, there is actually a crisis inside!"
"From the data alone, from 1887 to the present, the total economic volume has increased by almost 80% ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Under normal circumstances, it is unimaginable, but the price is a large increase in government fiscal expenditure! "
"If before the end of government investment in infrastructure, we have not found a new economic growth point, the economic crisis will break out!"
When I heard the economic crisis, Constantine was scared out of cold sweat. That's right, once the government infrastructure project is completed, all related industries will be affected, and there will be no place for the resettlement of more than 100,000 road workers.
I thought of this, Constantine began to regret it. Government investment accelerated the industrialization of Bulgaria, but I did not expect such a serious problem.
Looking at Constantine, Ferdinand secretly whispered, "It's bad, it's overdone, nothing will happen! Hell, who knows he's not so scared!"
Ferdinand asked, "Mr. Constantine, are you okay?"
"Oh, I'm fine." Constantine said weakly
Ferdinand looked at the anxious Constantine, and secretly rejoiced: Fortunately, you have no heart disease, otherwise your legs will go to see God, where will I find the right person to top your class in the short term!
"You don't have to worry too much. The current crisis will not erupt, and during this time, we can also take measures to find new points of economic growth!"
When Constantine saw Ferdinand's success, he seemed to have a solution. He asked, "Master, what good way can you solve the economic crisis?"
Ferdinand thought, of course, there are ways, but can't say! If I tell you now, it can be solved by launching a war and I won't scare you!
"I intend to build a development zone to promote economic development!"
Constantine looked at Ferdinand, and asked in wonder: "His Grand Duke, what is a development zone?"
