The Rise of Australia

After visiting Timor's agricultural construction, Arthur inspected Timor's animal husbandry and railway and transportation construction. new

Because of the help from the excellent local livestock industry in Australasia, Timor's livestock industry is still developing very well.

Timorese rancher Henry, who generously donated his cattle and sheep during the influenza period, received the Victoria Memorial Medal and a knighthood. The development of animal husbandry has become increasingly smooth, and he has received strong support from the Timorese government.

At present, Sir Henry is not only the largest rancher in Timor, but also a member of the Timor Colonial House. He is highly respected in Timor, and his identity and status are no longer the same.

When Arthur visited Timor's livestock industry, he naturally couldn't avoid visiting Henry's farm.

Arthur had great respect for this patriotic man who donated generously during the flu, and said many words of encouragement, which also made Sir Henry feel more excited.

Arthur's status is unquestionable in Australasia, and those who can be encouraged by Arthur will have bragging rights in the next few years.

Even for someone like Sir Henry, it is not impossible to spend his whole life boasting.

After all, there were very few people that Arthur met and encouraged in person. Sir Henry was already a big step ahead of others in this regard.

There is no need for Arthur to worry about the development of animal husbandry. Timorese ranchers, represented by Sir Henry, will take the initiative to develop their own animal husbandry industry.

Australasia itself is a powerful country in the livestock industry, so there is no need to worry about the development of the livestock industry and the problems it faces.

The next thing to inspect was the traffic situation in Timor.

Before large-scale immigration, Timor had only one city, Dili, and it was indeed small.

But after a large number of immigrants, Timor already has two cities and five villages and towns, large and small, and they are still developing.

This has also increased the traffic pressure in Timor in disguise. After all, there was only one city before, and only urban roads in Dili City needed to be built.

But now, roads between cities and villages and towns need to be connected, and even corresponding railways need to be built. After all, it is an island with a height of 30,000 square kilometers. The future population will remain at least hundreds of thousands, and it is very likely to even exceed one hundred. Ten thousand.

Under such circumstances, it would be difficult to meet the transportation needs of the entire Timor without trains.

Even in the future, not only railways but also airports will be built. The shorter the communication time with the local area, the better.

The Timorese government has done a relatively good job in building transportation. After all, it is only a road between a few small cities and villages, plus a railway between the two cities. Not only is the mileage relatively short, but it also does not consume too much manpower and material resources.

As long as there have been indigenous people, Timor's roads have been under intense construction.

Although most of the indigenous people have now been repatriated, Timor's transportation construction will not go backwards. new

It is worth mentioning that although it is only an island, the number of cars in Timor is not low due to the promotion of the Timorese colonial government.

Although it has a population of only 120,000, Timor has nearly 2,000 cars, most of which are small and medium-sized trucks purchased by the Timorese colonial government and engineering teams.

Although there are hundreds of civilian cars, most of them can only be owned by government officials and a small number of high-income people in Timor, such as nobles like Sir Henry.

After being ennobled as a knight, Sir Henry immediately bought a Benz car, firstly to support Arthur, and secondly, it could also serve as a front.

After all, as a nobleman, how can you do it without a car that represents high-income people?

This also increased the sales volume of Benz Automobile Factory in Australasia in disguise.

You know, Benz cars have always been representatives of low price and high performance. Not only are they cheaper than other cars, their performance and stability are also better than other cars.

At present, Benz cars have sold more than 10 million units, and the profits these sales have brought to Arthur are even immeasurable.

A little calculation shows that based on the profit of 35-45 pounds per car, the profit that tens of millions of cars can bring to Arthur has already exceeded 300 million pounds.

Although this involves dividing accounts with several United Automobile Plants, plus Benz's shares and so on. However, Arthur can at least obtain a profit of nearly 200 million pounds, which is why the royal consortium has expanded so hugely.

As the royal consortium was split into multiple consortiums, even Arthur didn't know how huge the property controlled by Arthur was.

Arthur only knew one thing, if he wanted to, his income could always exceed that of the Australasian government.

You know, Australasia has entered the level of great powers, and is now firmly among the top five powers.

Arthur's personal income can exceed that of the entire country. This is the true sense of a wealthy country.

Talking back to the development of Benz Automobile Factory, the most representative Benz One is definitely the most representative car in the world today, and it is also the most famous car with the highest sales volume.

With more than ten years of sales, Benz One has entered thousands of households around the world and has become the first choice for many European and American people when traveling.

Even if you are just a middle-class person, after solving the three problems of food, clothing and housing, you will most likely choose a car when faced with the choice of travel.

After more than ten years of development, car prices have already dropped, and at least the middle class can afford them.

When Benz cars were first launched more than ten years ago, the price was generally around 150 pounds, and the profit was about 70 to 80 pounds.

Today, more than ten years later, the price of Benz cars has been reduced to 110 pounds, and the profit remains at the level of 30 pounds.

You know, compared with more than ten years ago, today's cars have added some configurations, but the prices are still falling. new

And that’s not even taking into account more than a decade of currency depreciation and rising per capita incomes around the world.

What can be expected is that as long as the economy does not suffer a major crisis, car sales will not decrease. After all, there are still many rich people in Europe and the United States.

The sales of automobiles can promote the development of more industries, which is also a good thing for the economic improvement of Australasia.

Arthur's method of promoting car sales in Australasia is also very simple, that is, using cars as rewards for meritorious deeds, or turning them into prizes for some projects, and distributing them directly to the target group.

Using cars as rewards is much more practical than food and other things.

First of all, Benz Automobile Factory is Arthur's industry. You can directly enjoy the cost price of the car, and the cost of using the car as a reward will not be too high.

Secondly, with the development of transportation construction in Australasia, cars have become one of the main modes of transportation for Australasians.

Most people still accept the car as a reward.

After all, the official selling price of a car is as high as hundreds of pounds, which is the income of an Australasian without food or water for two years.

Nowadays, government officials, capitalists, new aristocrats, small and medium-sized businessmen and other people are the big users of cars. Coupled with the large number of taxi drivers in Australasia, the car usage in Australasia ranks among the top in the world.

new

According to the sales data of Benz Automobile Factory in Australasia, a total of 713,700 vehicles were purchased in the Australasian market, with an average of one car for every 28 people.

Although this number is not high, it is not bad at this time point.

As more immigrants arrive, and as per capita income increases in Australasia, the number of cars and car ownership per capita will naturally increase.

The biggest change brought to the world by the frequent use of cars is the increase in oil prices.

Whether they are small family cars or medium and large trucks, they all use diesel or gasoline refined from petroleum.

This has undoubtedly greatly increased the demand for oil in the world market. Judging from the current situation, as of 1, the price of gasoline has tripled, which is enough to show how huge the value of oil will be in the future.

As one of the countries with the largest oil reserves in the world, the rise in oil prices is actually a good thing for Australasia.

As of now, most of the world's oil-producing areas are in the hands of Britain, Russia and Australasia.

The situation in Russia is chaotic. Not to mention whether oil can be developed, or even the domestic oil development rights may fall into the hands of someone.

It would also be a good thing for Australasia that the British Empire controls part of its oil reserves.

After all, the area with oil is too vast, and Australasia alone cannot fully control it.

But if the British are also part of the oil interests, the British will try their best to control the oil reserves in the hands of other countries to achieve the purpose of controlling oil prices.

With the British attracting firepower in the open, Australasia will not be coveted by other countries by using oil supplies to make profits behind the scenes.

In other words, if you want to covet Australasia's oil supplies, you must first see whether the British agree.

And until France and the United States, their two most serious concerns, are completely eliminated, it is absolutely impossible for the British to abandon Australasia, their natural ally, for a little profit from oil.

Therefore, while European countries are focusing on restoring the economy and industry damaged by the war, Australasia has formulated plans for oil exploration, will establish a complete defense system in the Persian Gulf territory, and officially carry out oil exploration and extraction.

Although Arthur was very sure that the Persian Gulf region contained more than 60% of the world's oil reserves, before the oil reserves were completely explored, Arthur naturally told others this data without any basis.

Not to mention how horrifying it was to hear such exaggerated data from Arthur in advance, I am afraid that not many people will fully believe in the value of the Persian Gulf region before there is actual evidence.

1 alliance.

Although this was just a regular meeting of the World Alliance, the people attending the meeting generally had serious faces, and it seemed that something big had happened.

In the center of the meeting, in the four most spacious seats, the four representatives representing the four major powers of the Allied Powers all looked unhappy.

"Everyone, Russia needs your help!" Glenn Vasilyevich, the Russian representative to the World Alliance, said with a serious face and a little pleading.

Representative Glenn has appealed for help more than once, but the response has never been as huge as it is today.

After hearing Representative Glenn's request, almost everyone looked at Billy Gray next to Representative Glenn.

Billy Gray is the representative of the British Empire in the World League, and his opinions actually represent the opinions of the British Empire.

In the current World Alliance, the opinions of the British Empire can influence the choices of most countries, and can even directly promote the decision-making of the World Alliance.

"Representative Glenn is right, we can no longer sit still and wait for death. God will not allow a wrong belief to rule Eastern Europe. As a member of Europe, we must do our best to maintain peace and prosperity in Europe." Billy Gray He stood up and expressed his attitude without hesitation.

The last tough intervention in the Hungarian Civil War brought benefits to many countries, including the British Empire.

Although the Hungarian Civil War has been ended, Hungary has also paid a lot of costs to allow the World Alliance troops to withdraw from its territory.

Russia is larger than Hungary, and the World Alliance is bound to gain more benefits from Russia.

"Yes, the civil war in Russia has exceeded our expectations. It is time for the Russian people to enjoy a peaceful environment." Australasian representative John Yandali nodded in agreement and expressed his opinion.

Under normal circumstances, Australasia's diplomatic strategy is basically in line with Britain's. After all, Britain and Australasia are now close allies, and only by cooperation can the two countries gain greater benefits.

Just like this time, the British decided to intervene in the Russian Civil War, and intervening in the Russian Civil War would not harm Australasia's interests, and would even be beneficial to Australasia's interests, so it was impossible for Australasia to stop it .

In fact, at this time, two of the four major powers have already expressed their stance, and the other one is asking for help, which has basically determined the attitude of the entire World Alliance.

It is impossible for the French to refute this kind of thing that is almost certain.

Besides, the continued existence of Tsarist Russia is not a bad thing for the French. After all, it was Tsarist Russia that signed the alliance with the French, not the current Soviet Russia.

After several big powers expressed their stance one after another, it was the turn of small and medium-sized countries to show their loyalty.

After some manipulation and voting, dozens of countries in the World Alliance voted overwhelmingly to intervene in the Russian Civil War by force, and decided on the number of troops each country would send.

Because the British were the leader, they also sent the largest number of troops in this intervention war.

According to the British commitment, the British will form at least 200,000 troops within three months, land in Danzig, and join forces with other countries to intervene in the Russian Civil War.

In addition to Britain's 200,000 troops, the World Alliance's civil war intervention coalition forces also include: France 100,000, Australasia 100,000, Italy 100,000, Romania 100,000, Serbia 80,000, the Netherlands 50,000, Belgium 50,000, Greece 30,000, Montenegro 20,000, Hungary 20,000, a total of 850,000 troops.

The 850,000 World Alliance forces, plus the army of Tsarist Russia, have been able to maintain their numerical advantage over Soviet Russia.

Although I have no intention or even expectation of annihilating the entire Soviet Russia through this coalition, of course I also hope to extinguish the flames of Soviet Russia, at least to prevent the expansion of Soviet Russia from being as rapid as in history.

The best outcome for Australasia would be for Russia to split into two. The continued existence of Tsarist Russia was a good thing for Australasia.

The containment of Soviet Russia will allow Germany to continue to face the pressure of multi-front operations in World War II in the future, and will not let Australasia itself bear the burden.

Of course, judging from the current development of the world situation, no one can tell what will happen in the future, but the division of Russia will not hurt Australasia.
