Holy Roman Empire

As soon as the news of the railway company's external share offering came out, it immediately caused a sensation. In less than three days, the initial shares of the five companies were divided up, and a total of 30 million dong was raised.

I have to say that the big aristocrats are brave, and the family invested 1.8 million dongs without blinking.

Everyone is well-informed. It is very clear that the purpose of the government to do this is to attract local power to make a fortune together, so that no one will disrupt the railway project.

Even so, there is no reason for everyone to refuse to get rich?

Franzken took them together to make a fortune, which meant that the emperor regarded them as their own, which made many people feel at ease.

As for the suppression of the killings of the rebels last year, they were automatically ignored. Unconsciously, the **** moved again, and the traitor should be killed.

With so many strengths sent into the stock, Franz doesn't need to worry about the later things. These people are even more anxious than him. The railway will be built one day earlier, and everyone will make money one day earlier.

The exploration team of the Ministry of Railways has already started. In order to speed up, the newly established railway company has also organized its own exploration team and joined the exploration work.

Five railways were started at the same time: Shuangbu Railway (Prague to Bratislava), Vissel Railway (Vienna to Szeged), Vimy Railway (Vienna to Milan via Venice), Lusa Railway (Lubble Yana to Zagreb).

Of course, the actual construction of the distance is definitely not the only one. These five are just the trunk lines.

For example, there is a branch railway link between the Shuangbu Railway and the Wieser Railway. The Wisser Railway will extend westward to Salzburg, and the Shuangbu Railway has a bunch of branch lines.

Not to mention the Lhasa Railway. The straight line between the two places is only over 100 kilometers. How can such a short distance become the main line?

Naturally, it extended to both sides, to the west to the Villach-Vimy railway link, and to the east to Slavonski Brod.

There are 4,000 to 5,000 kilometers of main roads alone, plus the mixed branch railways, and more than 10,000 kilometers is proper.

There is no doubt that the Ministry of Railways has brought private goods here, and has used bundling to pack some difficult routes.

This is also acquiesced by Franz. As compensation, the Austrian government will provide some free labor to the railway company, and the specific situation will be determined according to the construction conditions.

I've boarded the boat, but still want to quit? It is not easy for a railway company to build a railway without the labor that the government can use as a consumable.

Once the casualty rate is too large, even everyone's hands and eyes can't cover it?

Think about the social impact of tens of thousands of deaths? Not to mention, the pension alone can make them lose blood.

This is also one of the reasons for the slow growth of railway mileage in European countries. Several hundred kilometers of railways are repaired every year, and the number of casualties is controlled within a certain range, and everyone can afford it.

If the casualties are severe, the workers will go on strike. Is it possible to return slaves from overseas for construction? Slaves in this era were not cheap, and shipping was not a small figure.

Railway construction in this era can be said to be very cruel. There are too few mechanical equipment, and most of them rely on artificial shoulders and backs. People in dangerous areas often finish with equipment.

Opium is a lot of unscrupulous railway companies preparing daily necessities for workers. Most people can't bear this pain. They rely on opium to paralyze themselves, and they will be abolished after a few years.

There is no doubt that the newly established railway companies in Austria are all representatives of the unscrupulous railway company, and the shareholders behind the scenes are a group of respectable nobles.

Because of the aristocracy, they must take into account their reputation. Many things can be done secretly, but they cannot do it on the bright side.

It is not easy to wash white, and the reputation accumulated by the ancestors cannot be blasphemed. Just look at Franz's performance. The emperor himself does not touch, and the Habsburg family must invest in a vest.

In this case, what could be more reassuring than using criminals? No matter how many deaths, public opinion will not condemn them, at least in this era.

Of course, this is also indispensable to find a few managers, presidents, etc., to condemn them for management errors, and then there is no more.

These people are chaotic parties and have been hacked in public opinion. As long as the Austrian empire exists for a day, they cannot be reversed.

Don't think that the European government will not be connected without the Ninth Nation. When the rebellion is involved, the nobles who are supreme will be finished, let alone the people who rise up.

Everyone is pretending to be confused. The ordinary people will not admit that their homes are artificial. As long as they are safe and secure, the government will pretend to know nothing.

Anyway, during the war, it was so chaotic and it was very difficult to check the situation. It was directly handled as the death toll. Otherwise, how did Metternich come to the death toll?

These people have been killed in their household registration, and their families have treated them as dead. Many people's funerals have been held in advance.

Except when Franz cracked down the Vienna rebellion in the first place, the "rebels rushed to the ground" were taken lightly, the rebels in Italy and Hungary were basically dead.

These people have also become the best laborers. Those who have died once can't do it again. These people died and burned the fire.

No wages and no pensions. No family troubles, no media condemnation, and no follow-up troubles.

The only problem is that these people are in the hands of the government and want to use it at a price. According to the prior agreement, there are not so many additional sections, but it is also not promised to provide free labor, isn't it?

Without hesitation, everyone decided to fix it. It's just that these road sections are repaired in the back. Anyway, the largest labor cost is saved, and the budget can not be increased.

In the future, if there is a profit, they will be put into operation. If there is no profit, they will make a train every ten days and a half months. This is also their freedom.

As long as the Austrian railways control the operating frequency, the possibility of loss is actually not large. In remote areas, it can be shipped together for ten days and a half months.

The routes planned by the Ministry of Railways are all connected to the city and not to the countryside. How can there be no business?

The unpopular route cannot make money, but the problem of capital preservation is not large, even if it is a loss, it will not be too much.

This is the advantage of private railway companies. They can flexibly deploy trains, and freight and passenger transportation can be deployed according to actual needs.

Government operations will not work. If the following dispatchers are given such a large amount of authority, it is estimated that the railway system will be hollowed out by them soon, and this supervision is still very troublesome.

The owner of a private company will stare at himself. Whoever stares at the government cannot guarantee that it will not be corrupted. The Emperor Franz cannot pay attention to this issue every day, right?

There is also the need for the government to consider political factors. Many local economic developments require railways to operate daily. The railway system will lose money in the short term, but the local economy has also been driven and the government's tax has increased.

In the end, the government lost or made a profit. This account is difficult to calculate.

In order to avoid large-scale corruption and reduce losses, the frequency of most railways operated by the government is usually fixed.

If you want to schedule, you have to report in layers. Unless it is a special case, most of the time, few staff will ask for trouble, and the operating cost will naturally go up.

After a series of bargains, everyone finally reached an agreement, and Austria's railway construction was started.

In order to recover the cost in the shortest time, this time adopts the "trilateral scheme" (exploration, design, construction).

The railway construction work has just begun. Everyone found a problem, but it seems that the gravel mines around the railway have fallen into the hands of the Austrian Sandstone Group.

This makes many people regret it. Before the railway was built, the gravel around the city was worth a little money, and the gravel in the wild countryside was left unattended at all.

But now it's different. Railway construction will definitely use a lot of sand and gravel raw materials. There were no cars in this era, and they could only be transported by human or animal power. There was no choice but to get the materials on the spot.

As soon as this news was received, the management of the railway company was furious. They were originally shareholders who had invited them to do the dirty work. At this time, it was their turn.

Unfortunately, without their chance to perform, when the Austrian Sandstone Group showed up in the backstage, one by one, nothing happened.

No, it happened. When I came, I was ready to smash the field. After I understood the situation, it became a business talk. When I left, I took away a supply contract signed with the Austrian Sandstone Group.

The real children are fair and fair. All the supply of sand and gravel is based on the market price. If the market price is not controlled, it should be considered a fair trade.

Franz still knows how important it is to make a small profit. If the game is overdone, the influence will not be good.

Therefore, the market price of sand and gravel has not increased significantly, but it has been increased by three floors compared to the construction of the railway. Of course, the railway company is a major customer, and it has a 20% discount.

Taken together, the unit price has only increased by 4%, and the price has hardly been raised, which is definitely a price of conscience.

This is also within the rules. As early as the first half of the year, Franz bought these minerals at the price of cabbage, and many of them were bought from the nobles.

The most valuable thing in this era is information. There is no way they can't be informed enough, and they are eager to get cheap. They can only admit defeat.

The only thing that reassured them was that it seemed that His Majesty the Emperor was not specifically targeting the railway. Not only are the gravel mines bought, except for the gold and silver mines, which are too expensive, and other messy mines have bought a bunch.

Even these sand and stone mines are not all along the railway, and there are mountains and ridges. Obviously, they also make money by spreading the net.

With so many sand and gravel mines, it is naturally impossible for Franz to send someone to manage it in the past. After all, the unit price of sand and gravel is not high, and the profit is mainly based on the volume.

As an emperor who cares for feathers, the matter of squeezing workers cannot be done, including the fact that he is the boss behind the scenes.

At this time, it is necessary to find a contractor. Are the big nobles ignoring the traffickers of the second-class traffickers, are there still noble nobles and small capitalists?

This does not require Franz to worry about it. After the wind of subcontracting was released, someone soon contacted the head of the Austrian Sandstone Group.

With the order contract in hand, it is doomed to make a profitable sale and purchase, and negotiation is still easy.

The contractor is responsible for recruiting workers for mining, managing all work on the mine site, and assumes legal responsibility for this.

According to the actual situation, the Austrian Sandstone Group withdraws 20% to 30% of the profit of the contract, and the rest is at the discretion of the contractor, including paying taxes and paying manual wages. The contract for the completion of railway construction is terminated.

Whether or not you can make money depends on the management level of these people. Anyway, the contract with them is the Austrian Sandstone Group, and all the responsibilities are left to the contractor. Even if it is not a big problem, it will be the most. Traced to the vest of the Austrian Sandstone Group.

Then there is no more. The vest is still behind the vest. At this step, it is stopped. The insiders are smart people, and no one will open the lid.

No matter what other people's calculations are, or how they are fighting each other, Franz will make the biggest profit as soon as he changes hands.

It is estimated that when these railways are completed, Franz's investment in buying mines will be fully recovered, and the mine is his greatest benefit.

You know, this is just the beginning. Only a part of the gravel mine has been developed, and there are still a lot of mines waiting to be developed. At this moment Franz discovered that the mine owner was the happiest.
