Judging from Shi Diwen's proposed fundraising plan, it is obvious that he has a lot of dignitaries and resources in his hands.It goes without saying that the reason why these people are willing to spend money is because they hope to take this opportunity to get in touch with the big shots of the executive committee and develop contacts at the top.
And the establishment of such a special relationship is actually not a one-sided demand. Haihan also needs these people in the upper class of society to work for him.
In the process of changing dynasties, officials, nobles and wealthy businessmen often acted as the ballast of social order.From the ruler's point of view, the influence of these people's status may be more valuable than their donations.
Tao Donglai concluded: "So what Shi Diwen means is to take advantage of this year's celebration to invite all members of the Executive Committee to Hangzhou, and then arrange to meet and chat with local sponsors. , I understand that right, right?"
Ning Qi said with a smile: "If you want to understand it this way, there seems to be nothing wrong with it."
Of course, the matter is not as simple as Tao Donglai summed it up. If the big shots of the executive committee want to go to Hangzhou to watch the ceremony, it will definitely not be the only arrangement. At least they have to visit and inspect the local infrastructure projects to confirm the plan to move the capital. Implementation progress.
In the past 30 years, members of the executive committee have generally arranged to go out on business in batches, and never left Sanya at the same time, which means that the decision-making centers of the entire country have to move with them.
During this period, the uploading and distributing of information can only rely on telegrams, and the speed of government affairs processing by various departments may be greatly delayed due to this.
How to minimize the resulting adverse effects and maintain the smooth operation of the state apparatus is probably what the senior officials of the Executive Committee really need to worry about.
But everyone could hear from Tao Donglai's tone that his understanding of avoiding the important and trivial was obviously inclined to accept Shi Diwen's proposal.For others, it seems like a good idea to go to Hangzhou to see the construction process of the new capital, and to confirm the environment and construction plan of their own mansion by the way.
Beks said: "I only visited Hangzhou last year, so there is no need to go there again so soon. If everyone is going to Hangzhou, then I will stay in Sanya!"
It is definitely more appropriate for someone to stay in Sanya to watch the house than to go out all at once.In the executive committee, indeed, no one was more suitable than Bai Kesi, who had only been to Hangzhou a few months ago.
Ning Qi reminded: "If it is really decided to go to Hangzhou, then part of the local celebration activities will have to be cancelled. There are also foreign envoys who are going to be invited to attend the ceremony, should we also take them to Hangzhou?"
Tao Donglai said: "The invitation is sent out as usual, and the situation is explained to the embassies of various countries. If you are willing to go to Hangzhou, you can arrange the itinerary for you. At that time, Laobai will stay in Sanya and handle daily affairs on your behalf. The local celebrations in Sanya will also be presided over by Laobai. "
Tao Donglai's words basically set the tone for this matter.The subsequent voting resolution, the participants did not express any objection.Even Gu Kai, who had voiced his opposition before, changed his mind in the final vote and did not insist on being a minority.
The members of the Executive Committee each have busy schedules, and finally managed to coordinate a time to sit together for a meeting. Of course, they will not only discuss such a topic.
The next topic is related to national defense and military affairs, so Yan Chujie will naturally explain it in person.
"Everyone, it's time for us to review the North American Special Military Procurement Plan once every two years. This matter should have been done at the end of last year, but there was no meeting at the end of the year, so it was delayed until now. when."
"The document in front of you is the procurement content for the next two years, and the Ministry of National Defense has already approved it. If you have any questions after reading it, I will answer them on the spot."
Since the founding of Haihan, the overseas ruled area farthest from the country is the North American region on the other side of the ocean.
In 1652, Wang Tom, who was in full swing, voluntarily resigned from the post of naval commander, and took thousands of people to North America to break new ground.
Although this decision caused a lot of shock in Haihan's senior management, and the prospects and risks were unpredictable, the executive committee still tried its best to give Tom Wang the support he needed.
Personnel, supplies, weapons, ships... were all configured according to the standards of an expeditionary force at that time, trying to ensure that this team would have the capital to settle down and start a business after going to a wild land thousands of miles away.
And Wang Tom did not let such a huge investment go to waste. After several months of sea voyage, the fleet he led finally arrived at the destination on the west coast of North America, and quickly established settlements and ports.
Most of the troops Wang Tom brought to North America were naval personnel and their families. It was not a big problem to establish colonies there and achieve self-sufficiency in food, but many materials could not be produced by themselves, such as weapons and equipment, ocean-going ships, production tools, Some daily necessities, etc., still need to rely on domestic supply.
In order to meet the military needs of the North American region, the Ministry of National Defense has formulated a North American special military procurement plan since 1652. The content is drawn up by the North American region based on actual needs. After being approved by the Ministry of National Defense, it is approved by the Executive Committee every two years.
The special military procurement plan will not directly allocate military expenditures to the North American region, but hand over various military equipment, such as rifles, artillery, and warships, which are the main items.
These equipments are self-financed by the North American region, and are handed over to the Ministry of National Defense for unified procurement from the domestic ordnance industry department.Of course, the price of internal procurement is relatively low, and the delivery is basically at cost price.
Wang Anguo returned from North America the year before last, and some of the supplies he received in the East China Sea region were weapons and equipment purchased in China.
For the new colonies far away in North America, this is almost the only way for them to obtain weapons and equipment.
In the procurement plan submitted this time, it is not difficult to find that the number of purchased artillery and warships has increased significantly compared with before, and a plan to build a large-scale shipyard in the local area is proposed to solve the construction and maintenance needs of small and medium-sized warships nearby. .
"It seems that Tom Wang's progress in North America is going very well. This time he wants to buy so much equipment, and he plans to recruit troops and horses to do a big job!" Although Ning Qi is not a soldier, it is not difficult to deduce from the content of this plan. The situation on the ground.
Yan Chujie explained: "There is a plan to expand the size of a standard fleet at one time, continue to put pressure on the Spaniards, and seize the few natural harbors on the west coast as soon as possible."
Tao Donglai said with a smile: "With Wang Tom's temperament, I am afraid that it is not as simple as putting pressure on the Spaniards. When he finishes expanding his army, there is a high probability that he will try to drive the Spaniards out of the area."
