C3284 Distribution of compensation (1/2)
Xiao Hexin's words shocked everyone present to the point that they couldn't speak for a long time. Zai Chun could understand it, but he was scared stiff by the huge and complicated new world inside.
As for the other laymen, they were simply astonished by the scale of this temple. They had no way to understand what kind of scene it was when a hundred thousand people worked together to solve a gigantic math problem.
Xiao Hexin did not give them much time to think, they paused for a moment and replied, ”Returning to the previous question, Your Majesty would like to know how these war reparations will be used, I can give you an accurate answer!”
”60% should be used for the civil affairs, the remaining 40% should be used for the military affairs!”
”What?” Tongzhi's brain was still thinking about the relationship between the General Staff System and the General Logistics System when he was shocked by Xiao Hexin's words.
”60% for the civil administration? ”How much is this …” The little emperor desperately tried to calculate, but Hairy # 2 was the first to answer.
”290 million silver taels. 60% is 174 million silver taels …”
”That's right, one hundred seventy million silver taels …” Xiao Hexin proudly said, ”Before the war, we had never thought that there would be such a large amount of money as compensation, but this standard was set by the Führer previously.
”Out of this 170 million silver taels, 30% of it goes to education. We will invest a huge amount to establish an education system for all in primary, secondary, and university. All children of appropriate age will be forced to carry out education …”
”The remaining 50% will be invested in the Infrastructure s of the Chinese … What about He Wei's Infrastructure? is the railway, the river, the wharf, the industrial area, the factory and the mining equipment... and even the water supply system, the water system, the road traffic, the hospital, the theater, and so on... ”
”All this money is like a gold-eating monster, we have to split half of it...”
Everyone in the room was stunned, Da Sixi and the others could not even count the money that they had just exchanged. How much money was this?
One hundred seventy million silver taels! Take out half of it to fix something... What Base... Facilities?
85 million silver taels! School? Letting children go to school for free? To build the railway? Using such precious metal to build a road, wasn't this the same as tormenting yourself?
Xiao Hexin looked at them in disdain: ”50% are Infrastructure, 30% are compulsory education for all, the remaining 20% will become funding for Chinese scientific research!”
”We in China can't just keep chasing after European ass all the time! ”This money is our reward for scientists, and also the capital to dig corners in Europe!”
”Alright, this is the general plan for the civil affairs side. As for the military side, it's even simpler. The total compensation will be 40%, which is one hundred and sixteen million silver taels!”
”60% of these military expenditures will be invested in the naval construction, the remaining 40% will be split into two, the Army will allocate 20%, and the military research fund will be allocated to the last 20%.”
”This is the rough ratio. It's fine, but it's not too outrageous …” Now, Your Majesty, do you find this answer satisfactory? ”
On one hand, Xiao Hexin came to the Singapore to stop the assassination attempt on the Tongzhi Emperor, and on the other hand, he wanted to stabilize the little emperor's heart before the leader returned.
This brat was definitely dissatisfied in his heart. With the addition of the little Emperor who was about to return to the Forbidden City for her wedding and her personal affairs, she had to protect this situation.
He had to cooperate with the Chinese side's plan to move forward!
Jiaozhou Bay, Wuchang three towns, Minjiang River Haikou, Taiwan Island, Guangxi Beihai area, Hangzhou Bay area … When they reached the depths of the Yangtze River, such as Chongqing and Changsha, Tongzhi had to specially approve all leases that the Chinese people wanted!
How could he make the little emperor unhappy at a time like this? He was completely shocked, and in a while, the forbidden city would join the Qing Dynasty's conservative system, refusing to reform it what should he do?
