Chapter 710 Consolidating the Economy

“Mr. John Reeders, can you provide more detailed information about the three cities? After all, I have been away from East Africa for so long, and I don’t know much about East Africa anymore,” Wells said.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Wells, I actually don't know much about the cities in East Africa. After all, there are many cities in East Africa now. The information you have is from China. But if you ask me, Nairobi and Bulawayo Kisan City should be the best choice. Both places are connected by railways. This alone is currently unmatched by Kisan City. Moreover, Kisan City is said to be in the Congo Basin in western East Africa. You must have lived in a plateau area before. It’s definitely more suitable climatically.”

“Well, if we don’t hurry, I want to think about it for a while, and it’s best to get more news from the country.” Wells said.

"The time is the 13th of next month, so you can still think about it for ten days. It's best to give us a reply as soon as possible. I'm working at the Miter Street branch now. I went there to report my name, but the result was that it had to be sent back to China first. So that the other side can be prepared, the deadline is three days next month." John Reeders said.

"No problem!" Wells said. This time was enough for him to discuss it with his family. What Wells actually wanted most was to communicate with his family.

Subsequently, Wells and Director Grayling saw off John Reeders.

Grayling: "Mr. Wells, you'd better take over your work before leaving. Your departure is actually a loss to our factory."

Although he said this, Grayling was not really eager for Wells to this extent. In fact, Germany did not lack talents in this area. Of course, it would be great if Wells could be retained. Unfortunately, East Africa will not let go.

“Thank you for your care over the years, Director Grayling, and wish you a prosperous business.”

Graylin waved his hand to see the guest off and said: "Let's pack our luggage first! After all, East Africa is a bit far away, and you have lived in Germany for so many years. I think you need to take a lot of things with you."

Ernst continued: “According to my country’s current economic situation, vigorously developing light industry and adjusting the industrial structure are also important indicators for increasing East Africa’s international competitiveness.”

“Involving textile industry, machinery manufacturing, shipbuilding industry, food processing, glass, ceramics, paper making and other industries, strengthening the weak links of our country’s economy.”

“We recalled more than 2,000 elites and leaders from all walks of life from Europe at one time. Although their talents may be limited, after years of training in Europe, they can effectively identify and optimize deficiencies in all walks of life in East Africa. "

“Light industry is an important part of the national economy and is related to the basic necessities, food, housing and transportation of East African citizens. Blindly developing heavy industry and military industry can easily lead to an imbalance in the industrial structure and is not conducive to the stable operation of the country.”

…

The shortcoming of East Africa's industry is light industry, and these are the industries that East Africa can best penetrate in Germany and Europe. Heavy industry, on the other hand, is difficult to arrange for manpower to learn.

The return of talents is also to further improve or consolidate the East African industry. Before this, the industrial system in East Africa could only barely operate, so more professional talents were needed, especially those who had accumulated rich production experience in Europe and had certain qualifications. Young East Africans with academic qualifications will take on the responsibility.

The exports of military industry and heavy industry are obviously not as good as the export of light industry. First of all, the military industries of all the great powers are basically not too bad. That is, the countries in the Far East established a strong military industrial system in the 1970s and 1980s.

Therefore, the international competitive pressure on heavy industry products is greater than that on light industry. The four countries of Britain, France, Germany and Austria firmly hold the right to speak in this field, and it is related to system issues. It is difficult for any country to squeeze into the arms market of these countries.

In addition to the issue of weapons and equipment systems, politics is also an important reason. The above-mentioned powers, together with Tsarist Russia, the United States, and Spain, basically divided up the world's political resources. This is also a major shortcoming of East Africa. The only big country that can influence East Africa is probably the Abyssinian Empire, but the Abyssinian Empire is only a medium-sized country in Europe.

"The integrity of the industrial system is extremely important for a large country like East Africa. Small countries cannot build a complete industrial system, and at the same time they have very little right to make decisions about their destiny. They are inevitably controlled by others, and we in East Africa are obviously out of the small country level. So in order not to be controlled by others, all walks of life, of course, I am talking about serious businesses, must be fully developed."

“Now that the Hessian Railway is about to be completed, the industrial production in East Africa is bound to be affected by the upcoming war. In order to avoid the negative impact of the war on factories and facilities, more professionals must be invested in stabilizing production.”

“Therefore, it is extremely important and urgent to provide a fast track for these returning talents and arrange for their accelerated integration into East African social production.”

The completion of the construction of the Hessian Railway is the time when East Africa will eliminate potential threats to East Africa's surrounding areas, so the business of the East African government is also the busiest now.

“His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can rest assured that all departments, the Immigration Department and the embassy will actively cooperate to let them perform their duties as soon as possible. We promise to arrange the return of talents before March next year.”

Now East Africa is in a tense situation, especially in the central and southern regions. The residents in the east do not have much reaction. This is related to the fact that they are far away from the central and southern borders that may become the front line of war. However, the factories and factories in the eastern provinces Both the military and political agencies felt that the storm was coming.

As soon as the cannon is fired, there is a thousand taels of gold. East Africa must work overtime to produce production materials to prevent the war from stagnating production and causing social problems. Therefore, two-pronged preparations must be made. One is to hoard daily necessities, and the other is to ensure the safety of factories and other institutions when war breaks out. normal operation.

According to the unanimous judgment of the Ministry of National Defense and the General Staff Headquarters, once the war starts, the problems faced by East Africa will definitely not be the usual trivial fights.

Because the enemies of East Africa have been well prepared in recent years, and the war is likely to spread to East Africa from all directions in East Africa, basically the entire territory of East Africa may be directly threatened.

Ernst: "Very good. The return of talents must be accelerated, and preparations for war must also be accelerated. In particular, reserve registration and training must be carried out across the country. All military regions, especially the central and southern regions and northeastern regions, as well as the navy must do a good job Preparations for war.”

"This war is also a real battle for East Africa's national destiny. If we win, East Africa's status as a world power will be recognized by the international community. At the same time, the harsh geopolitical environment faced by East Africa will be eliminated, and it will pave the way for East Africa's development in the next few decades. If we want to level the road, we will have to be prepared to cede territory and pay compensation, and even lose development opportunities in the next few decades.”

The problems facing East Africa are actually the last battle for "shipping tickets" among the great powers in the context of the times, just like the United States is with Spain and Japan is with the Far Eastern Empire, the winner takes all.

In fact, if the Far Eastern Empire can defeat Japan in the 1990s, the Far Eastern Empire can continue to maintain its status as a great power and represent the success of its Westernization campaign.

Everyone is fighting for national destiny, but the enemies in East Africa are obviously the most difficult. In fact, if the British do not target East Africa, they can also achieve the same effect in East Africa if they face the Portuguese and Transvaal alone. However, the British suppression of East Africa is obviously There will be no room left.

An important reason why East Africa faces a more dangerous situation than the United States and Japan is that Britain and the United States have already fought with each other, and there are interests between the two, and the culture of the United States is inextricably linked to that of the United Kingdom. As for Japan, it is completely Supported by the UK.

Only East Africa is ideologically mainstream, belongs to the mainstream of German culture, and is economically decoupled from the United Kingdom. At the same time, it poses a huge threat to Cape Town, British Somaliland, Egypt, and India.
