Tsarist Russia: Please Call Me Your Majesty The Tsar

Chapter 41 Transportation And Industry (Fourth Update, Please Collect!)

Mikhail handed over the plan of agricultural reform to the cabinet for full implementation.

Prime Minister Pobie Donoschaev, Minister of the Interior Stolypin, and Minister of Agriculture Demirit will carry out this work. Among them, Demirit, as the Minister of Agriculture, naturally put all his energy into it. The Prime Minister Podonos Chaf and the Minister of the Interior Stolypin are assisting.

After all, the prime minister is busy with affairs and it is impossible to focus on only one area. The Ministry of the Interior is preparing to deal with those landlords who are unwilling to sell their land.

In addition, the army is also ready. If necessary, the army will directly carry out suppression to ensure that the entire agricultural reform can be implemented smoothly.

In addition to agriculture, Mikhail also set his sights on transportation and industry.

The backward transportation situation of the Tsarist Russian Empire must be changed. At the same time, the level of industrialization of the Tsarist Russian Empire was very low, almost the lowest among the great powers.

In this era, it is obvious that an agricultural country cannot become a world-class power. Only by strengthening its industry can it become a powerful country.

Therefore, the Tsarist Russian Empire must vigorously develop transportation and industry next.

To this end, Mikhail also specially summoned Prime Minister Pobedonoschaev, Minister of Finance Ivan Goremykin, Minister of Transport Saltykov and Minister of Industry and Commerce Nilatov and others.

"Gentlemen, I am very worried about the current traffic situation in the empire. Although we are building the Trans-Siberian Railway. However, the current progress of this railway is still too slow. I hope that the Ministry of Communications can formulate a detailed plan to further Speed ​​up the construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway, and strive to complete the main project of the Trans-Siberian Railway within five years and realize its opening to traffic. Moreover, the subsidiary projects of the Trans-Siberian Railway and the double-track plan will continue to be implemented in the future!" Mikhail said The seriousness of the face.

Mikhail hoped that the Trans-Siberian Railway would have been opened to traffic when the war with the Orientals started in the future.

In this way, the army and war materials of the empire can be continuously transported to the Far East by railway.

In the case of a huge gap in national strength between the two sides, it is not so easy for the Orientals to defeat the Tsarist Russian Empire.

"Your Majesty, if we want to speed up the progress, I am afraid that the required funds will increase. If we want to build a double track, we will need to spend a lot of money!" Minister of Transport Saltykov said with a frown.

"In terms of funds, we fully support it." Mikhail replied directly.

Saltykov nodded. If this problem can be solved, then he will have no problem.

"Your Majesty, Siberia is vast and sparsely populated. It is enough to build a railway. There is no need to build a double track!" Minister of Finance Ivan Goremekin said.

After all, it costs a lot of money!

"It is true that the Siberia region is vast and sparsely populated, but it is rich in resources. The rapid development of the empire cannot be separated from the resources there. What's more, after the completion of the double track, the railway capacity will be further increased, which is conducive to the empire's development of Siberia and other countries. The control of the coastal area of ​​the Far East. At the same time, this is also a strategic consideration. The people who never set the sun are fully supporting the Orientals, which has already posed a huge threat to the empire. If the empire does not increase investment, it is very likely to fall into crisis ’ said Mikhail.

"Your Majesty, do you mean that the Orientals will use force against us? Do they have the guts?" Prime Minister Donos Chaf looked contemptuous.

The other ministers also had the same expressions.

Obviously, everyone didn't take the Orientals seriously.

"It's true that the Orientals don't have such courage. However, when the sun never sets and people support them, they will have the courage. They defeated the Qing Empire before, isn't it the same?" Mikhail said.

He doesn't intend to delve into this issue. It doesn't matter if the ministers don't believe it. He just needs to be prepared for it.

"In addition to the need to speed up the construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway, the empire's railway network in Europe must also be established. In addition, the same is true for the road network. Most of the empire's roads are dirt roads. Once it rains, they will be full of mud. The empire needs to build asphalt roads or cement roads, etc. The traffic situation has changed, not only to guard against the people of the empire, but also to benefit the development of the empire's industry and economy. Especially such infrastructure investment can stimulate the empire The development of industry!" Mikhail went on.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Transport Minister Saltykov replied excitedly.

He could tell that His Majesty the Tsar was planning to make a big splash in the field of transportation! This is undoubtedly a great thing.

"At the same time, the empire's industry also needs to further accelerate its development. The empire's industrialization level is very low. This and the empire's status as a world-class power are not exhausted at all, and it also seriously restricts the development of the empire's national strength. Next, the empire It is necessary to vigorously develop industry. In terms of heavy industry, the empire can directly invest to accelerate the development of this area. In terms of light industry, it can guide private capital to enter."

Mikhail then made a request.
