Chapter 58

It was the turn of the Dutch Minister of Industry, Wem Cotter.

"After these years of development, the industry of the Netherlands has developed rapidly, especially after the Netherlands put forward the first five-year plan in 1857 when His Majesty was still the crown prince and started to implement the first five-year plan in 1857, the level of industrialization in the Netherlands has improved rapidly. As a result of the Prime Minister's words, Now the annual economic development of the Netherlands is developing at a speed of 5. Now our annual GDP is 6 billion Dutch guilders. The most common pound is 240 million pounds in terms of total value. In the same period, the British Empire is 1 billion pounds and Tsarist Russia is 600 million pounds. , France 800 million pounds, Austria 600 million pounds, Prussia 600 million pounds. The north of the United States is 1.8 billion US dollars. The exchange rate of sterling is 5:1, which is 360 million pounds. The south of the United States is 200 million yuan, equivalent to 50 million pounds"

"Our industry in the Kingdom of the Netherlands has developed rapidly in recent years. According to the domestic GDP, until 1861, that is, at the end of last year, according to the domestic GDP ratio, the ratio in the world has reached 3%. If the East India side has accelerated the deployment of eastward development in recent years, then at least give us 0.5% of the regular price, mainly because all kinds of industrial products made in East India are directly sold to the most powerful ones in the Far East. The market, because there is an ancient country with a population of 300 million, the John Empire, the Netherlands has accelerated its cultivation there in recent years, and it has also become the main reason for our development."

"The Ministry of Finance plans, the second five-year plan to start this year, will be in addition to East India, in New Guinea and other Pacific islands, will expand more trade centers in order to increase trade in the Far East The transaction share and the huge market of John's Empire will make the miracle of the East India happen again in other places in addition to the achievements of the Netherlands in the East Indies in the future."

"Nowadays, the industrial output value of the Netherlands is developing rapidly. If calculated by country, our country accounts for 5% of today's industrial output value, and the 2% of the East India side is equivalent to 7% of the world's industrial production. Its share exceeds that of Spain and Tsarist Russia, second only to 25% of the British Empire, 13% of France, 10% of the United States, 8% of Tsarist Russia and Prussia, more than 6% of Spain and 7th place with Austria. , higher than Sardinia at 2%, Argentina at 1.5% and Japan at 1%, Denmark at 2.5%, Sweden at 3%, Belgium at 1% and Portugal at 2%."

Capellor didn't seem to want to pass the baton so quickly, but continued to look at the report in his hand, saying, "Our department's research has found that the gap between the empire's current population and that of other countries hinders the growth of the Netherlands' GDP, so the Ministry of Finance It is believed that the Netherlands needs to implement more incentive policies in the area of ​​population growth to enhance the disadvantage of the Netherlands."

"Oh, I don't know, does the Ministry of Finance have any suggestions?" William I and others looked at Kalope. The shortcoming of the Netherlands is its small population. Today, with a population of 10 million in Europe, the Netherlands has a mere 6 million. Man, it really isn't enough. Although Sweden is also the same population, it is still the king in northern Europe, but don't look at the geographical environment there. In the cold winter, the people are cold, and many Europeans feel disgusted, especially in winter. .

Moreover, almost one-third of the food there is imported. Under such conditions, it is no wonder that William IV thought that after 150 years, the population of Sweden would increase by only 50%, and the population could barely reach the threshold of 10 million people.

There are 590 countries with a population of 590 that cannot even enter the world in later generations. The theory of great powers is only nominal. In the same period last year, the populations of the world's countries were 35.41 million for the Austrian Habsburg Empire, 33.69 million for the French Empire, 3145 for Prussia, and 3300 for the British Empire. 10,000, 61 million in Tsarist Russia, 31.44 million in the United States (22.34 million in the north, 9.1 million in the south), 23 million in the Kingdom of Spain, 25 million in the Ottoman Empire, 2.6 million in Denmark, 6 million in Sweden and the Netherlands, Norway and Belgium Both are 2.5 million, and Portugal is 4 million.

Capet said: "Our Netherlands can actually introduce elites from other European countries to settle in the Netherlands. After all, the living standard of the Netherlands is second only to the British Empire in Europe and the world. This is our advantage. For this reason, Our Ministry of Finance is preparing to launch a plan for 10,000 people, and we are ready to ask His Majesty to see it."

"What did the Ten Thousand People Plan say?"

William suddenly became interested. He thought of a country's talent competition strategy, the motherland's strategy for thousands of talented people, and a company's talent youth plan. They are all high-paying, high-equity, and waiting for them to carry out point-to-point talent poaching operations.

At the same time, William IV suddenly had the urge to slap himself. Until now, he had been cultivating talent plans at home, only limited to the Dutch, but with so many foreign talents, he did not have any plans. It's not that he looks at the gold coin in front of him, but he looks unmoved.

Genius descends from the sky, no need, but suffers from it!

"This makes me curious, let's talk about it, right?"

Sure enough, it is to use money as the first priority, scientific research or the environment, to entice the talents of these countries, and finally achieve the goal - to bring people to the Netherlands.

Everyone else who heard the words couldn't help but light up. All have seen the benefits, especially the Minister of Industry Wem Cotter and the Minister of Education Rude Bells.

They all thought of a lot of celebrities who are famous in Europe and fit the candidates for their respective departments.

Watching the pair in these Privy Councils emit a wolf-like light that devours people.

William IV burst into arrogance and said, "It's a great talent plan, a great plan for ten thousand people!"

"If the Netherlands has such a talent plan to complete, with the extra 10,000 talents, then why not make another leap forward in the Netherlands, Prime Minister, Capeluo's plan is good, and the cabinet will start to formulate relevant supporting plans after returning home. , all departments will cooperate to strive for rapid passage in the House of Representatives and enter the policy implementation stage. Then bring it to me to sign it into effect. "

"Yes, Your Majesty," Tolbeck nodded.

Home Secretary Jonrell suddenly said: "Finance Minister Capellor's plan is very good, I got inspiration from it, Your Majesty, Prime Minister, I think the plan of 10,000 people just now belongs to high-end projects, while the Netherlands is in the middle and low end. The shortage of talents and population is another shortcoming.

The Ministry of the Interior has already launched an internal discussion on this issue, especially this year, His Majesty asked each department to set up the Policy Research Department of the Ministry of the Interior, and our new department has also discussed this issue many times. One of the most realistic answers to the current Dutch predicament, we have a set of data, you can listen to it, and after listening, everyone will know what I want to express."

"Before 1800, the U.S. population was quite stable. But after that, the U.S. population test changed drastically, especially in the ten years to 1810, the U.S. received a total of European immigrants, and 60 percent of European immigrants came to the U.S. in the past 10 years. 10,000 people"

Suck!

Everyone, including Tolbeck, looked at Jonrrell in disbelief.

"The number of immigrants received by the United States in a year has reached 600,000 people. You must know that the current population of the Netherlands will be around 600. That is, if all of them are Dutch, then in just 10 years, the United States will get almost the Netherlands. 10% of the population. Moreover, it is not an exaggeration to know that these may be high-quality population, and it is not an exaggeration to become a talented person. It is no wonder that the United States can develop so fast, from a place where the British exiled prisoners, it has become one of the world's largest industrial powers. Among them, the contribution of European immigrants is definitely one of the biggest reasons."

Foreign Secretary Heisbet Fung sighed.

"Continue." The William IVs didn't say anything, but Prime Minister Tolbeck did.

A thoughtful look appeared on his face.

So do others.

"Among the 600,000 people, there are 30,000 French, 80,000 Prussians, 20,000 British, 100,000 Sardinians, 40,000 Danes, 100,000 Swedes, 80,000 Spaniards, and 50,000 Portuguese. 50,000 Tsarist Russians, 30,000 Dutch, others are less detailed"

As Jonrrell said the data one by one, the expressions of the people present changed greatly.

They are all populations of big countries, especially when they hear that there are 30,000 Dutch people, they are all embarrassed.

Although there were previous conjectures, the immigration of 30,000 people made them discover the seriousness of the situation. Moreover, this is only 10 years before 1810, then after that?

"What's the reason?" Tolbeck asked gloomily. There are still 50 years from 1810 to the present. There are still 5 statistics in ten years. improve.

Yes, at the moment of Tolbek, it means that the veteran who has been in the Dutch political arena for more than ten or twenty years is no longer calm at this moment.

"The main reason is that there was a war in Europe. Don't forget, what kind of war was there at that time?" Jonrell's question made everyone fall into the war between the Napoleon Dynasty and European countries in that era. UU reading www.uukanshu. com

Yes, it was Napoleon I's war that led to the loss of European talents. This answer made them relieved. It was a forgivable factor that they avoided peace in the United States during the war years. Who doesn't want to live a peaceful life? Well.

"However, with the loss of population from 1810 to 1820, a total of Europe emigrated to the United States..." Jonrrell suddenly stopped, his face changed greatly.

"How much?" Seeing this, without waiting for Tolbek to ask, Minister of Agriculture Erne Bevin asked first.

Jongleur's expression revealed a question, could it be more than 600,000?

William IV was silent.

The United States has laid the firmest foundation by relying on Europe's population development period at the beginning of the 19th century. The United States has laid the most solid foundation. It can be said that it has grown up by absorbing the elites of other European countries. The established talent plan for hundreds of years is still the same. Later generations have changed their methods to suppress other countries, so that the elites of other countries feel that the United States is the ultimate belonging and fall into the arms of the United States. This is the ultimate goal and method of American talents.

If the Netherlands wants to get rid of the population restrictions, it seems that the only way is to learn the method of the United States.

(ps: There are too few tickets of all kinds today, so please give your support. Also, the next chapter has a big move, the map of this world will be expanded, and you can see a brand new world map screen unfolding, especially Regarding the Far East, I especially thank a previous book friend for his suggestion in the comments. I accepted his opinion. The Far East cannot disappear in vain. Therefore, replace it with another country. Even the Anglo-French Combined Fleet suffered a defeat under it, demarcating the territory of the two sides, and this was the beginning.
