Bulgarian Empire

Chapter 68: , Contracting New District

  Ferdinand said slowly: "I intend to let the government introduce preferential measures to encourage domestic companies to gather together to form a huge industrial park, and then drive a new round of domestic economic development!"

Constantine asked puzzledly: "Your Excellency, this is equivalent to artificially building a city! But is it really useful? Enterprises are scattered all over the country and gathered together, and the total amount has not changed. Moreover, in the transportation of raw materials, The cost of many companies will increase?"

  Ferdinand said patiently: "This is only on the surface. When a large number of people gather together, it will inevitably promote the development of the catering and entertainment industry and increase employment!"

   "There is also the biggest advantage, gathering together in the same industry is conducive to promoting enterprise technological innovation!"

  ……

   Ferdinand tried his best to convince Constantine. Oh, now he is still not optimistic about the development zone, he only agrees with common sense, and he does not even have the will to let the government invest.

   Ferdinand thought for a while, but did not say anything. If the government does not invest, he can invest by himself.

   Anyway, this is also a profitable business. Real estate development alone is fat enough. Don’t you see so many businessmen waving banknotes and rushing to the development zone.

   It’s not difficult for him to run a city. The city he lives in the Hungarian fief does not run well.

   Ferdinand is relaxed, but Constantine is worried. Although he says to give it a try, he actually hopes the development zone will succeed more than anyone else.

  As the next prime minister, Constantine changed his voice about the economic crisis. As an international student, he has heard about the terrible nature of the economic crisis. Not to mention destroying a country, at least letting one cabinet fall is easy.

   took out a map of Bulgaria, called a meeting with government officials to discuss, and finally selected the suburb of Sliven after many twists and turns.

   Sliven is an industrial city in eastern Bulgaria and the capital of Sliven Province. Located at the southern foot of the Balyu Mountains. It has been a strategic location since ancient times.

   The city was established in 1153. It is one of the textile centers in Bulgaria. In 1834, the country's first woolen factory was established.

  There are wool spinning, silk spinning, textile machinery, machine tool manufacturing, food, wood processing, glass, and ceramic industries. There are libraries and museums.

   In terms of safety, it is hundreds of kilometers away from the border, and it can be defended by the Balkan Mountains. The railway has been run through, and it is not far from Burgas Port, which is convenient for transportation.

   Sliven is pretty good in every way. Ferdinand was also very satisfied, and later generations of Sliven were still famous for producing rose oil in the suburbs.

   There is another reason that cannot be said. Ferdinand wants industry to stay away from Sofia. In the years of rapid economic development in Bulgaria, Sofia, the capital, has developed rapidly.

   At the same time, environmental pollution is inevitably brought, and now the air quality in Sofia has dropped significantly.

   This year, it is impossible to introduce an environmental protection law. Ferdinand can only restrict the birth of Sofia's new factory in approval at most, but he can do nothing about the existing factories.

   Now the opportunity is here to pack them away, Ferdinand wants to live a few more years. The future of Sofia can be Bulgaria’s political center, cultural center, or economic center, but not an industrial center.

   The Bulgarian government has established a new development zone. As it has not yet achieved results, the administrative level is not high. It is only a municipal unit directly under the central government.

   With the introduction of preferential measures, of course the official media came out to sing hymns without morals. Oh, the opposition media, unfortunately, they are not mainstream.

   The "Bulgarian Press Law" clearly stipulates that news media practitioners shall be financially open, and the newspaper office shall be jointly and severally liable for advertising content.

   Several newspapers have already paid a **** price for this. The newspaper’s bosses and editors have been imprisoned. So now, newspapers are not very interested in advertising and rely on readers to subscribe for their lives.

   It is a pity that the Bulgarian market is too small, and many newspapers are forced to close. By the end of 1891, the total number of newspapers in the country was less than ten, which was less than one-third of that in the heyday.

  The public opinion circles in Bulgaria have become unified, and it is almost impossible for chaotic thoughts to spread through newspapers.

   The Social Workers Party, which Ferdinand ordered the intelligence department to focus on, has no embryonic form.

  Of course, the main reason is that the average wage of Bulgarian workers has increased by 20% in just three years from 1888 to 1891.

   There are also the promulgation of the labor law and the emergence of overtime pay. Now everyone is busy making money, has no interest in social movements, can't fool people, and naturally there is no soil for political parties to survive.

  Because of the previous brutal struggle between the Liberal Party and the Conservative Party, the Bulgarian people were disgusted.

   Under the guidance of Ferdinand, anti-party thoughts have emerged in Bulgaria, and the new generation of students is the main force among them.

  Bulgaria's first development zone was quietly established in peace. The first mayor of the development zone was concurrently served by the former mayor of Sliven. The officials at all levels were basically the original local officials and remained unchanged.

   From the Sliven Development Zone delimited by Sliven City, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com seems to have returned to the original system.

   It is enough to see from the above that the newly established development zone is so unwelcome in the government. Except for a new name and some more preferential policies, there is almost no change in personnel.

  No way, except for Ferdinand, the entire Bulgarian government has little expectations for the new development zone. Everyone tries to keep their influence as low as possible, lest they fail and end badly.

   Looking at the report sent by Constantine, Ferdinand thought for a while, but approved it. In the spirit of saving, the government has saved a sum of administrative expenses.

   Anyway, the infrastructure construction projects of the entire development zone have been contracted by the new zone development company just established by Ferrantz.

  According to the agreement, the government of the Sliven Development Zone has packaged the ten square kilometers of land in the zone to the New Zone Development Company at a friendly price of 100,000 Levs.

  Including the initial investment and construction, municipal service management, and later investment promotion, all are the tasks of the new district development company.

   Not only that, according to the agreement. The New District Development Corporation must also ensure that the total assets of the new district exceed 100 million levs and the population exceeds 50,000 within five years.

   If it fails, the development company must compensate the liquidated damages of 3 million lev, and the new district government has the right to purchase properties in the development zone at a discount.

   is simply an empty glove white wolf. The government has passed all the risks to the development company. If it succeeds, the government can continue to expand the area of ​​the new area and develop it all around; if it fails, the development company will pay for it, and there will be liquidated damages.

   Fortunately, the development company belongs to Ferdinand, otherwise no one would dare to sign this contract. Although the profit after success is very large, once any link changes and retreats, it will be nothing.
