The atmosphere in the Military Intelligence Service was oppressive to the extreme, and all the mandarin seed s' faces were pale. They couldn't avoid it after all, Xiao Letian had done so much for the little Kaiser, and was finally going to collect interest!
The name Head of State's Fortress Plan was a very confidential one and only the itself would call it this, while the outside world called it by the name of a whole package plan to rent space!
This plan was actually a secret agreement. When Tongzhi was in the Europa, he had already signed it, but at that time, because he did not have a relationship with his father, he could not carry it out!
This whole plan was very huge. Head of State paid a lot of money to rent the world from Ningbo, Changzhou, Wuxi, Jiangyin, Tongling, Anqing, Jiujiang … All the way up to Chongqing!
Along the Yangtze River, there were a total of sixteen Industrial Zones s of various sizes!
There were also coastal areas, Weihai, Jiaozhou Bay, Hai Zhou, Wenzhou, Fuzhou … All the way south to Qiongzhou and Ginkou, there were a total of 12 coastal Industrial Zones!
This was the first batch of plans, the secret agreement had stated that later stage Chinese would have the priority to rent a place, and these Special Administrative Region were not isolated, but allowed to build railways between themselves!
Of course, it was impossible for the regions that the railways passed through to be rented to the Chinese, so the Qing Ting, Chinese and overseas capital would jointly establish the Daqing Railway.
After all, the Beijing and Tianjin railways were the court's face works, no matter what, they had to be in his hands!
The twenty-eight Industrial Zones s had a total area of seventy-eight thousand square kilometers!
Is 78,000 square kilometers large? Compared to the Great Qing Kingdom which had a land area of more than ten million square kilometers, it was obviously a small zero!
Even the land taken by the Russia was much larger than this number!
However, in Xiao Letian's eyes, these twenty-eight Special Administrative Region s were enough for him, because the future generations of Hong Kong s would only cover an area of 1100 square kilometers, and Shenzhen would only be around 2000 square kilometers, but the wealth created in these places were astronomical!
The Chinese wanted wealth, not just the amount of land, as long as it was enough for industrial production, in the future, when they built the fort, it would be easier to protect the relatively small area.
Chinese had to pay Great Qing Kingdom twenty million taels of Realm silver every year. The contract was tentatively set at thirty years and Great Qing Kingdom had earned a rent of 600 million taels of silver.
The secret agreement that Zai Chun had signed not only benefited from the rent, but also supported by the Chinese. In the future, Great Qing Kingdom would have to provide a large amount of interest-free loans for the industrialization of Great Qing Kingdom, give him a lot of Technology s, and even provide him with political protection.
It seemed to be a mutually advantageous plan, but in the eyes of these old officials, it was as if they had seen the Black and White Impermanence who was reaping the soul!
Weng Tonghe fell to his knees with a sound of ”Putong” from his heart, ”Your Majesty! No, this won't do! All the cities in the secret agreement are the throats of my Daqing. Xiao Letian set up a Special Administrative Region here, has to station there, wants to control the local security, and even needs to use their own laws! ”
”Isn't this the kingdom among nations? The Tanggu District had caused the entire Tianjin area to be in a state of panic! How many had been lured away, and how many had been misled? How could he do that? The world is going to fall into chaos! ”
”Master is too serious! Why was the world in chaos? My Daqing has over ten million square kilometers, but it's only a small part of the leasehold. It's only over seventy thousand square kilometers, not even enough to house a county! ”
”Even if we can bewitch a small group of Popular, wouldn't there be more people s that they can't come into contact with? ”Words are too heavy, words are too heavy...”
