Almighty Manor

"Before I expand in detail, I would like to ask, how much do you know about shipping?"

The deacons present, who are not elites, have said the truth.

What shipping accounts for more than 90% of the world's transcontinental logistics, what accounts for the vast proportion of world trade ...

However, this is what they know, and it is not particularly deep.

"Everyone knows that the scale of ocean shipping is very large, so how big is it? I have a set of data here. The total global trade value is 16.5 trillion knives, 85% of which are transported by sea. Of course, the value of seaborne cargo is usually relatively low, even if it is It ’s only 50% of the value, so the total amount is $ 8 trillion ... ”

What is the concept of 8 trillion knives?

"That is to say, the scale of shipping is about to catch up with the state's economic aggregate?" The servants were also surprised.

This is the state, it should be regarded as the second largest economy in the world!

And this is still the economic aggregate! The scale of ocean shipping is really incredible.

"Even if only one-tenth of the seaborne supplies pass through our port, they will be worth 800 billion dollars in trade each year!"

If there is 800 billion yuan of logistics, 365 days a year, there is a continuous flow through a certain place, this place is difficult to think of whether it is rich or not!

Some people may ask, "The ocean is big, and you run wherever you want to go. Why should you go through a certain port?"

Is n’t it good to just point to point?

The problem is that the earth's land is unevenly distributed. Most humans and developed regions are located in the northern hemisphere.

Therefore, most of the shipping takes place between several major states in the northern hemisphere.

Within this range, there are several levels that cannot be bypassed from the nearest channel.

The Vest Channel, the Suershi Canal, and the Banauru Canal. These are the few places where humans can hardly get around!

So look at the denseness of the port cities near these places, and you will know.

So, how can you make money from this place?

Charge for berth? loading fee? Service fee? Towing fees? Service fee?

This is really just a small amount of money. This is what a port company cares about.

But in a city, the eyes are much bigger than this.

The laws of the world determine that logistics is the center of this world economic activity.

The center of logistics must be the center of capital flow, because a steady stream of logistics arrives, you have to unload, exchange, buy and sell, and transship, which involves money transactions. Money transactions definitely require a lot of capital flows, and then the bank comes;

The center of capital flow must be the center of finance. A large amount of capital flows in. What should I do when not trading? What if the ship is at sea? Where is the money lost waiting for the baby? Nothing to count and play? Of course it has to work and play finance! Here comes the financier!

The financial center has raised a large number of rich people, and a steady stream of ships brings a large number of seafarers. Naturally, business centers, living centers, and service centers will be created.

The logistics center also has a large amount of cheap raw materials and low transportation costs. Of course, an industrial center will be born.

What kind of education center and high-tech R & D center after that is almost everything, let alone how simple it is!

This is probably the fastest development lane for cities on earth. It's like riding a rocket. Soaring into the sky, there are no twists and turns in the middle.

But the problem is ...

"Zhuang owner, there are so many routes in the world. There is no important route that passes through Green Island Port. Why do people come to us?"

Zhuang turned away and pointed to a map of the world behind him.

However, this world map is a little different from others. In the blank space of the map, there is an area where a map of a manor is drawn with different rulers.

A large sea area surrounds a round island.

"This is Green Island Harbor." Zhuang not far drew a circle at the southern end of Green Island.

"Lvdao Port is located in the northern part of the Western Ocean, close to the Arctic Ocean, not far from Nut State, Maple Leaf State, Midi State, and all continents along the western coast of mainland China. This is the pole of the world economy.

Not far from Zhuang again, a circle was drawn in the north of Pingyang.

"This is the Pingyang Ocean. It is very close to the state, Fuso, Korea, and the western part of Nut State, and it is another pole of the world economy."

"What is the shortest route between the two poles? For example, from the state to Midi, is it the route of Pingyangyang, Vestline Strait, Feihai, Suershi Canal, and Geocentric Sea?"

Everyone looked at the map for a long time, and that seems to be true.

There are no other fairways to go.

"Wrong!" Zhuang not far waved: "The shortest way is here!"

Zhuang not far away, pulled out a scarlet scarlet straight line, directly from the green island port to the manor, and then from the manor to the Pingyang Ocean!

"The shortest way is to enter the manor from Green Island Port, and then enter the flat ocean from the manor! There is no need to cross two oceans, several straits, a canal, dozens of days of travel, and it only takes a moment to get from the west Ocean to flat ocean! In an instant! "

At that moment, all of his servants were shocked!

Then a servant raised his hand timidly:

"Village owner, you want to let the outside ship enter the manor?"

"Yes, that's what I said, open port!"

Open the estate to the world!

After so long development, the manor is no longer afraid to open, and no longer needs to shrink to protect himself!

"As long as we are in the northern part of the Pingyang Ocean, we can find any place, plant an empty grass, and then ..." Zhuang not waved his hand and was domineering: "We are the best port in the world, no one! "

Of course not one!

People's ships must run and they must be transported. Your boat is simply crossing!

"The landlord, you cheat!" Everyone is going to scold the mother, so much better! Zhuang mainly bullies so that everyone can't sail!

Wait, why should I scold my mother? I'm the owner! I want to help the owner curse someone's mother!

"Wait, owner, there's a loophole here ... How do you explain that your boat went from here to there in an instant?"

"No, no, this direct crossing, of course, is our own ship ... if it is someone else's ship, passing our port, of course, we have to go ... here!"

Zhuang not far drew a long line, swiped across the entire North Pole.

"Arctic Waterway!"

Although the North Pole looks large on the map, it is actually because the map is unfolded. According to this proportion, Mao Bear State is almost half of the continent.

The earth is a ball. The Arctic waterway is only 3,000 nautical miles in total. It can save more than ten days of flight than the vestibular waterway ~ www.wuxiaspot.com. It is a dream waterway in human legend!

The problem is that this channel is frozen all year round, and even the short thawing period is extremely dangerous, and even insurance companies are unwilling to cover it.

"Do you want to open the Arctic Channel?"

"Of course not. I investigated. The entire Arctic waterway is full of icebergs. There are only 17 coast stations. We put hundreds of icebergs in the inner sea, get some fog, interfere with their GPS, fake the coast stations, and let them Let ’s go around, go around, go around, release it enough time, duang, it ’s Ping Dayang ... ”

What the servants can say, can only praise him sincerely: "You are so shameless!"

Praise and praise, the servants ran outward.

"Hey, what are you running?"

"Let's go buy some boats!"

So excited so excited!

It's about to get rich!
