Chapter 58 Urbanization
58 Urbanization
Luo and Meizi were puzzled by Cao Yu's words.
Cao Yu then patiently explained: "In my strategy, Yunzhou and Longcheng will be temporarily abandoned!"
"Give up? What does it mean?" Mei Zi and Luo looked at each other, with deep doubts in their eyes. The two of them would also communicate in private. In the future, their ideas on how Longcheng and Yunzhou should be dealt with. Mei Zi believes that it should be a three-legged tripod and coordinated development. Luo believes that Chuzhou should be the core, and the other two cities should develop around Chuzhou, but no matter who it is, they have never given up Yunzhou and Longcheng.
That's incredible!
Cao Yu smiled and said in a temptation: "I'll ask you first, what will happen to Chuzhou in the future?"
"It will definitely be very good!" Meizi and Luo answered in unison without thinking.
"Yes, it will definitely be very good. So, have you ever thought about what a good way would it be?"
Well?
What would be a good way?
Meizi and Luo were both stunned for a moment.
They really never thought about this question.
After three or four seconds, Mei Zi first said: "Master, I think there will definitely be more and more high-rise buildings in Chuzhou in the future, and there will be shops everywhere. Oh, by the way, there will be more and more people."
"There will be more and more factories, and more and more people will do business!" Luo added.
Cao Yu nodded: "What you said is right. Chuzhou's future will definitely be as you said. There are more and more factories and shops, but there is a prerequisite for this, and more and more people must.
But there are only more than 400,000 people in Chuzhou. Even if they all come to the city, there are not many people. So, where will the workers find the factories built? Who will do business with the shops built? In a word, where does our city population come from?"
"Master, what do you mean is that you want to move all the people of Yunzhou and Longcheng to Chuzhou?" Meizi asked in surprise.
Cao Yu nodded.
"But...what if they don't come? I think many ordinary people are still unwilling to leave their hometowns? Could they be forced to relocate?" Luo asked back.
"Of course it is impossible to force relocation!" Cao Yu laughed. He reached out and wanted to bring a cup of tea to take a sip. He was talking to two officers from Yunzhou just now, and his mouth was a little dry, but when he reached out, Mei Zi hurriedly took the tea and blew it gently, then handed it to him, as if he knew his wishes.
Cao Yu took a sip of tea and said calmly: "The people are indeed reluctant to leave their hometown, but...
If I come to Chuzhou, I will arrange a job. If I come to Chuzhou, I can work in a factory, I can earn more money, live a better life, and eat meat every meal!
Moreover, after coming to Chuzhou, all children can study for free, and they can go from elementary school to middle school, or even college!
In addition, after coming to Chuzhou, there are some living places, some delicious food, and you can also browse the streets in the city every day. So...
Why don’t ordinary people come to Chuzhou?
Hometown is very important, but...Isn't life more important?"
Meizi and Luo listened, look at me, look at you, you can't speak anymore. After thinking about it carefully, what the coach said was even more reasonable.
If most of the people in Longcheng and Yunzhou came to Chuzhou, the population of Longcheng and Yunzhou would become smaller and smaller, and eventually declined into a small village-like place. At that time, there was no need to send professionals to manage it.
If that day really comes, then the population of Chuzhou will surge and will soon exceed one million. In that case, Chuzhou can be regarded as a metropolis.
There are few metropolis with a population of more than one million in the entire West.
With more people, factories can recruit more workers. With more workers, factories can produce more and more products. The higher the output, the faster the industrial products in Chuzhou can form a scale effect and the products can be sold further.
I dare not say that weapons and steel alone form economies of scale, as long as I sell them, I can earn a huge amount of money back.
With money, Chuzhou can be built better.
After Chuzhou is built better, more people will come to Chuzhou. At that time, more factories will appear, more trade will appear, and more industries will appear.
The increase in industries brings about an increase in population and an increase in population, driving industrial development, affecting each other, and forming a virtuous cycle.
In this way, it won’t take long to make Chuzhou the largest modern city in Xizhou, and even the imperial capital cannot be compared!
If Chuzhou really becomes the largest metropolis in Xizhou, there is no need to expand its territory and fight in the east. At that time, naturally, the center of gravity of Xizhou will shift to Chuzhou.
At that time, as long as you have sufficient military strength to ensure the safety of Chuzhou, the prosperity and prosperity of the imperial capital will soon reappear in Chuzhou.
The people and wealthy men from other cities in Xizhou will all come to Chuzhou.
By then, the Grand Marshal will be the emperor who is not the emperor.
As long as Chuzhou becomes prosperous, other places will take the initiative to throw themselves into Chuzhou, and there is no need to fight with real swords and guns!
After thinking through the joints, Meizi and Luo couldn't help but take a breath of air conditioning.
this?
The strategy of Dashen is too grand!
The far-sightedness of the Grand Marshal is indeed not comparable to that of them. What they have been thinking about these days is when they wait until the anti-demon operation is over, which place, Lanzhou, Huangcheng, or where?
But the great man-
People defeated others without fighting!
They could see at most ten meters away, but the coach's eyes could see at least ten kilometers away.
The gap is really not too big!
It took Mei Zi to come back to her senses. She hurriedly asked, "Master, then we are in Yunzhou now?"
Luo also raised his ears and listened.
Cao Yu thought for a while and said, "I plan to send two battalions to the Dafengkou north of Yunzhou to guard."
Dafengkou is the only channel for the basin to the north, which is the other parts of Xizhou. If you keep it there, you can cut off all connections between Yunzhou and Chuzhou and other places from the outside world.
Yunzhou Chuzhou and Longcheng, three cities are located in a basin, surrounded by mountains and high mountains, making it difficult for people to climb, and vehicles and equipment, it is even more impossible to read. The only entrance and exit is the Great Wind. As long as you close it there, Chuzhou can be completely isolated from other parts of Xizhou.
Cao Yu’s current focus is on farming development and vulgar development. He doesn’t want to participate too much in the battle for hegemony in Xizhou, so by keeping the big wind, he can keep the safety of the basin.
As for foreign trade, he planned to use sea transportation to go directly from the sea to Nanzhou or Beizhou and Dazhou. Those places are good places with stupid people and a lot of money, and are much more profitable than other cities in Xizhou.
Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, he planned to send two battalions to Dafengkou to station, on the one hand, manage the border, and on the other hand, clear out the bandits and bandits in Yunzhou and other places. Moreover, Dafengkou is not far from Yunzhou, and is more than ten kilometers away. You can send a company to station in Yunzhou to maintain basic public security and order.
After defending the gust of wind, Cao Yu found a way to attract the people of Yunzhou and Longcheng to Chuzhou.
In that case, the first step of his grand strategy would be basically successful!
He had considered this plan before, but because Yunzhou had been out of control and he had not had much energy to fight with Yunzhou for the time being, he had been stranded. But he never expected that his luck was so good that the Yunzhou City Defense Forces actually rebelled on their own, killed the city lord and his people, and surrendered to them collectively!
