A larger office with pink wood floors and elegant and colorless desks made the whole room look very harmonious. On a leather chair is Lin Sheng, who is not too old. There are thick documents piled up on the right side of the table, and he reviews the documents in detail with a little against his head. Now the establishment of the Southwest People's Union Government has been completed. Lin Sheng, who has been busy for several months, can finally sit in his office a little stable.

Lin Sheng picked up a document and read it. It was a report on the economic situation of southwestern provinces in 1914, as well as a large number of basic mines and factories that were about to start construction in the first half of 1914. These include the top-secret new generation fighter jets and imitation American B-21 bomber factories, new TNT explosives factories, tank and armored vehicles joint factories, self-propelled artillery machinery factories, and high-power and long-distance radio factories. The current southwest can be said to be changing with each passing day, and endless fresh patterns are constantly impacting the fragile hearts of some old stubborn people who hold the ancestral system.

He knew that starting these projects now may not necessarily catch up with World War I, and the main weapon of the Army in World War I was still various rifles and machine guns, plus heavy artillery. If China started building these military factories now, even with strict confidentiality measures, it would not be possible to prevent all-in-one agents. Thinking of this, Lin Sheng wrote in the document without hesitation: It is recommended to consider starting construction after consultation with the security department. It is best to build the factory near Panzhihua, Sichuan. It is better to postpone the construction until three years later!

Opening another document, the Military Staff of the Southwest Government proposed to accelerate the resolution of Guangxi warlord Lu Rongting, and could completely get rid of the southwest without a nearby sea outlet. The Staff has formulated a complete and effective offensive plan, and at the same time, the specific amount of personnel, equipment and materials needed was initially calculated, and the maximum and minimum losses suffered by this battle were estimated.

The General Staff initially plans to draw four divisions from Yunnan, two divisions from Guizhou, and attack Guangxi in three directions. At the same time, it is recommended to draw two newly formed brigades from Sichuan to defend Guizhou and prevent Hunan. In this way, only two divisions remain in Yunnan. The bandit suppression work in Yunnan has not yet ended, and most of the troops are scattered in various counties, which will take three months to assemble. It seems that the General Staff has not taken this situation into consideration.

Go. Guizhou also has the same problem. The bandit problem must be completely eliminated, otherwise the safety of transportation materials will not be guaranteed and the materials will not be circulated, and the southwest economy will not be able to improve at all. In the northeast, Zhang Zuolin also needs a large amount of supplies to supplement the nominal aggressive attack of the Northeast People's Army. It is difficult! Lin Sheng relied on the high-back chair in announcing that he closed his eyes and thought to himself with his right hand clenched his fists.

What to do? The economy needs to develop, bandits need to be cleared out, Guangxi needs to be taken down, Northeast needs support, Hunan and Hubei need to be guarded against, the cultural quality of the people needs to be improved, medical security needs to be kept up, and advanced weapons also need to be built. World War I will also begin this year, Japan will invade Shandong, Yuan Shikai's treason treaty will be announced, the ambitious British Empire intervenes in the issue of Tibet's border line, and Sun Yat-sen will establish the predecessor of the Kuomintang, the Chinese Revolutionary Party. It seems that 1914 is really a troublesome!

The economy near the Sichuan Basin in the entire southwestern provinces has basically begun to be primary industrialized. Both in China and even the world's economy and industry are not behind other countries. All they lack is supporting culture and education and qualified workers. In addition to agriculture, Yunnan and Guizhou are still poor in industry. If they take over Guangxi next, there is a lack of talents from all walks of life. After Gu Hao went abroad to recruit some technical talents, he was instantly divided by various departments.

Lin Sheng stood up and opened the drawer and took out a pack of Zhonghua brand cigarettes produced by Chengdu Cigarette Factory. The mellow tobacco smelled the sensitive nerves and gave people a taste of enjoyment. He stood up and walked to the wide floor-to-ceiling window in the house, opened the white curtains in front of him, and looked at the tall chimneys of the power plant in the distance. The progress of social productivity will inevitably bring environmental pollution. This point himself, including all the soldiers from the future, understand that it is worth sacrificing the environment of human survival in exchange for the position of a famous Chinese nation standing in a world power. Outside the house, I remembered a crisp knock on the door, "Please come in," Lin Sheng turned around and returned to his chair. Song Jin, the new president of the Southwest People's Government, walked in with a smile and said: "Chairman Lin, good news! Good news!"

"Oh! It must be a big deal to be called good news by President Song!" Lin Sheng stood up and walked up to sit on the sofa side by side with Song Jin. "Yes! Today, he received a telegram from Panzhihua Iron and Steel United Enterprises that the first 100,000-ton steel furnace was successfully tested in one go, producing completely qualified steel. Compared with the world's most advanced countries in Britain, the United States and Germany are in a leading position in technology and output." Song Jin explained excitedly, but Lin Sheng was not as excited as Song Jin imagined.

"Celebration should be celebrated! Let the people below do it!" The blast furnace with a production of 100,000 tons will not have a shocking effect on Lin Sheng from later generations. What I want to consider most is the current changes in the pattern of the whole country and even the whole world, what practical benefits can China or the Southwest get from it, and the next step to expand the territory without affecting the economic system of the southwest.

"Director Song, you are here so good. I want to know if the State Council has extra financial money this year?"

"Fight Guangxi?" Song and Jin also knew that the People's Army was interested in marching into Guangxi, seizing an actual control for the Southwest government and contacting deep-sea ports overseas. "Yes, everyone has different opinions on the two issues of Northeast China and Guangxi. In addition, there are constant bandits in Sichuan, Guizhou, and Yunnan, and it has not been completely resolved." Lin Sheng raised the questions he was worried about at the right time.

"What does political commissar Xie mean?" As a government official, Song Jin sometimes did not want to participate too much in some sensitive issues. Now, both in the government and the military, party issues inevitably arise, although they have not been clearly shown. Overall, they are clearly divided into three factions. One is to absolutely support Lin Sheng's direct person, including the base personnel who have been following Lin Sheng before, the second is to support Xie Ping's subsequent joining and people in Guizhou and Yunnan, and the third is to support Cai Mingyuan, a soldier and local officials from Shuangliu, Xinjin and Sichuan. Fortunately, the three people have maintained a good relationship and support and cooperate with each other, so that the Southwest People's Government can move forward in a consistent manner.

"Political Commissar Xie originally planned to go to Northeast to preside over the work. I haven't discussed it with him yet, so I want to have fun with you first." Lin Sheng leaned on the sofa and looked at Song Jin, who looked a little rigorous.

"If we consider it from the perspective of our government, it is best not to take too much action in the first half of the year. The government has no extra money. In order to maintain market financial stability, about 600 tons of gold and 17 million silver have been invested. There are also three provinces and regions to establish six-year high school compulsory education funds, Chengdu-Chongqing Railway, Chengdu-Campan Railway, and Chengdu-Kunming Railway all started construction at the same time. Most of the funds for these infrastructure construction were paid out by the government, not including the newly started factory costs in various places." Song Jin faced those old men who came to ask for money every day every day, and they had repeated these topics many times.

"Yes! The family is too thin, you are hard to be a steward, I understand." Lin Sheng sighed, "Tomorrow we will meet, I'm discussing with Political Commissar Xie and the others."

"Okay, I'll come to the Chairman today and there's one thing."

"Oh! You said."

"The mayor of Chengdu City submitted a letter to me about the establishment of a securities trading market, and many wealthy businessmen called the government unanimously." Song Jin took out a telegram from the folder he was holding and handed it to Lin Sheng.

"Is that right?" Lin Sheng rarely showed a puzzled smile on his face. He took the message and looked at it. He lamented that the sensitive sense of businessmen is always ahead of others. He also knew that securities trading can gather idle funds in society, which is conducive to the rapid development of his own company. "I think it's OK, have Gu Hao's work arranged?" Lin Sheng remembered Gu Hao, a foreign player who was responsible for doing business and plundering funds.

"I just came back last month, and the equipment of several military factories he built in Guangxi has been basically in place. It is in the trial production stage. I think he will be the director of the Military Equipment Department?" Song Jin did not expect Lin Sheng to ask Gu Hao. At the same time, Gu Hao's work arrangements have been at a standstill. Although the factories abroad and Guangxi were all built by Gu Hao, the specific management has been ready for the personnel.

"Well, it's still not necessary. We can form a corporate group for foreign holding companies, and Gu Hao is responsible for it. I don't think there is any problem in establishing a stock trading market. The general direction is referring to the Western stock trading rules. At this stage, we must also combine the actual situation of China, especially Sichuan. Don't be exploited by others to take advantage of the law. If you suffer a loss, you have no place to seek justice." After Lin Sheng said that, he stood up, and Song Jin also knew that he had returned the work and it was time to leave.
