Section 53 Economic Conference

The main leaders of the First Northwest Army, the Second Northwest Army (Northern Luzon Legion), the South Jeroke Legion and the Tengger Legion were officially announced. Liang Chongxin, Helianbo, Kang Jianguo and Cui Wenxiu served as the commanders of the four major legions, and made relatively major adjustments in the defense area. The main troops of the First Northwest Army were all mobilized to the Bonan-Longdong-Tianshui line, and the northern defense zones including Yinchuan, Taixuan and Molington were handed over to the newly established South Jeroke Legion, and the Second Guard Division was also assigned to this area to strengthen the defense against the north, especially the Kamans.

After obtaining Wufeng's approval, Cui Wenxiu set up the headquarters of the Tengger Legion in Loulan City. The First Cavalry Division was stationed here, echoing the Western Regions Joint Army, which was headquartered in Wusun City, and guarding the entire Western Regions. The house also completed the mission of clearing and rectifying in Xikang Prefecture, leaving only the newly formed security corps led by the local Gaoyue people stationed in Xikang Prefecture City. These are also two corpses that were specially approved by the War Readiness Administration. According to regulations, one prefecture can only form one alliance.

The guard troops of the team, but given that most of the militia troops in Xikang Prefecture came from Gaoyue people in the mountains and participated in the battle against the Lang family at night and had certain combat experience, they made an exception to agree to form two wings of security forces, and Xikang Prefecture no longer had regular army garrisons. The Second Division of the Tenggeri Legion in the house was ordered to be transferred west to the heart of the Mot people, the Spark Gathering on the shore of Boyue Lake, and together with the Mot Autonomous Defense Army, assumed the defense responsibility of the Mot Autonomous Territory.

The largest adjustment should be the Second Northwest Army. In addition to the Second Division led by Yan Tong, the other four divisions advanced eastward under the leadership of the commander Helianbo, and entered the northwest Qingyang, and were stationed in the barracks outside Qingyang City in Qingyang. This is also the general reserve team that Wufeng is preparing to enter the Eastern Front battlefield. Once the situation on the Central Plains on the Eastern Front changes, the First Northwest Army will naturally be the vanguard and main force. The four divisions and First Guard Division of the Second Northwest Army will also be the follow-up troops and reserves on the battlefield. The more than 200,000 troops are also the largest capital for Wufeng to fight for the Central Plains. With these ten divisions as backing, Wufeng has the confidence to fight with any force, and now he is just waiting for the conditions to mature.

At the end of April, the first financial and economic conference in the Northwest region was held in Qingyang. Not only the six northwest governments, including the two northwest governments, the Western Region Alliance, Mot Autonomous Territory, Lu Long, Xikang, and Longdong governments and officials in charge of the economy were present. Xiao Tang, Su Qin, James, Yang Zhengbin and Su Minshun all attended the meeting. The meeting was chaired by the new Northwest Finance Director James. The meeting consulted and discussed many economic issues such as unification of tariffs in various regions, promoting industrial and commercial investment, mining development, road traffic construction, farmland and water conservancy facilities construction, and other economic issues. It also had the

The problems were analyzed and studied, and a package of solutions were proposed. For example, the domestic cargo circulation tax issue in the Western Region Alliance, the cargo circulation customs tariff issue between the South Jeroke region and the northwest region, the tariff issue of the Indian Kingdom and the Northwest, the development issue of the border area of ​​the southern Luzon and the Grand Duchy of Luzon, the development issue of the green sea swamp area, the issue of increasing the development of Hengduan Mountains, the issue of mineral development of gold mines, silver mines, iron mines, and coal mines, and the issue of building a northwest highway network have all been raised by many officials.

Financial issues have been raised as an important topic, and the role of the Northwest Bank has also been paid attention to by many officials. As a temporary monopoly bank for the Western Regions and the Motel Autonomous Territory, officials from both regions have expressed their hope to open up the financial market as soon as possible. In particular, the Western Regions Alliance officials led by Saipo strongly demanded that the Northwest Administration open up the financial market and introduce foreign financial departments to establish branches in the Western Regions countries to promote the rapid recovery of the economy of the Western Regions countries. He even asked the Northwest Finance Agency to separately provide interest-free loans to the alliance's infrastructure, prompting the improvement of the conditions of the Western Regions countries to ease the pressure of ordinary people on the newly appointed alliance institutions. Luman and Mu Haoran also jointly proposed the same request to issue a franchise and agreed to enter the North Luzon government to meet the growing capital needs of the southern region.

The Director of Finance James took a long time to give a special lecture on tariffs, finance and financial issues, and introduced the current tax system, fiscal revenue and expenditure projects, and the purpose and operation mode of the establishment of the Northwest Bank. In response to the doubts of the Western Region Alliance, James naturally couldn't say that it was to better control the economies of the Western Region countries. He could only follow the negotiations to prevent possible financial risks and review the foreign financial sectors.

The opening of the financial markets of the Guo and Motel Autonomous Autonomous Territory will be placed in the last batch, but at the latest it will not exceed one and a half years after the Northwest Bank established institutions in the Western Regions countries, and guaranteed that the Northwest Bank would give priority to meeting the financial needs of the Western Regions countries. After receiving these replies, the Western Regions League barely accepted this statement. After the fact, the Season still found Xiao Tang and James and demanded that the opening time of the Western Regions financial market be shortened. However, after Xiao Tang and James' patient persuasion, they finally reached an agreement.

The issue of transportation construction has also been listed as an important matter, especially the two prefectures in Northern Luzon are even more popular. At present, whether it is Shuangdui Prefecture or Vito Prefecture, its main transportation channels can only rely on the big business road from Zijing Pass to Qingyang, which runs across the east and west. Especially with the continuous development of the southern part of the two prefectures, road traffic has become a bottleneck restricting the economic development of the two prefectures. The tobacco plantations, coffee plantations and sugarcane plantations in the south of Shuangdui and Vito continue to expand in the scale of tobacco plantations, coffee plantations and sugarcane plantations in the south of Shuangdui and Vito, but the planters and merchants are deeply troubled by their harsh road conditions and constantly make suggestions to the autonomous government in the name of the Chamber of Commerce of the two prefectures, demanding the repair of the two roads from Vito to Manlong City of the Grand Duchy of Luzon, Shuangdui to Jaipudu City, which is the Zhaipudu City of the Grand Duchy of Luzon, and the new road from Shuangdui to Dasonglin City of the Grand Duchy of Luzon to promote the economic takeoff and market expansion in the southern part.

In particular, after the guard of Shuangdui City Luman took the lead in learning that the Northwest had obtained a large amount of funds from the people of the Bangzhe, he not only took the opportunity to delay the mine auction funds that should have been paid to the Northwest Finance Agency, but also continued to make articles of Green Sea Swamp through various means, requiring the Northwest Administrative Office to allocate funds to develop the surrounding areas of Green Sea Swamp to strengthen border preparations, fulfill the promises made by Wufeng when he inspected the Green Sea Swamp, and first used the "Northern Luzon Express" to promote and incite, praising the Northwest Military and Political Military Control Commissioner Li Wufeng, the Northwest Governor of the North Luzon, for his concern about the development of the Green Sea Swamp minorities in the border area, which made Wufeng difficult to get on the tiger, and had to let Xiao Tang include the development of the Green Sea Swamp area in Shuangdui Prefecture as a general task of the Northwest Construction Agency.

During this meeting, he repeated the same trick and bribed the editor-in-chief of the Northwest Star. On the front page of the Northwest Star, the merchant highly praised the governor for attaching great importance to trade exchanges between Northern Luzon and the countries in the Western Regions, and prepared to build a road from Shuangdui to Wusun City. He generously stated that the Shuangdui Autonomous Government was willing to bear the funds for road construction in Shuangdui Prefecture. However, this time Luman's beautiful idea seemed to have become a shooting himself in the foot. Xiao Tang, on behalf of the Northwest Administrative Office, clearly stated that the Northwest firmly supported the construction of the strategic road from Shuangdui to Wusun City, given that the Shuangdui Prefecture City leads to Shuangdui Prefecture.

The roads on the Wusun border have been completed due to the development and construction of the northern iron mines. The road from the border to Wusun City was funded by the Northwest Finance Office. However, the Shuangdui Autonomous Government used the mine auction funds that should have been handed over to the Northwest Administration to build the road, and made a mandatory completion time requirement. This boring stick hit Luman almost crazy, and he could not steal a chicken and lose a handful of rice. In addition to repeatedly entangling Xiao Tang, Luman even stood by Wufeng's mansion and asked Wufeng to handle the incident fairly. However, Wufeng happened to inspect Tianshui, which made Luman feel depressed.

The Northern Luzon governments also proposed a proposal for tobacco monopoly. In view of the rapid expansion and increase of tobacco plantations in the southern part of Vito Shuangdui, the tobacco plantation and processing industry is becoming increasingly important in the economic status of the Northern Luzon governments, and has surpassed the traditional rice planting and wood processing industries. With coffee planting and processing, sugarcane planting and sugar production have become the three pillar industries with the most Northern Luzon characteristics. In order to increase tax revenue and protect the investment enthusiasm of large tobacco planting and processing majors, the Shuangdui Chamber of Commerce and the Vito Chamber of Commerce submitted this request to the Governor General of the Northern Luzon Palace, but this proposal has sparked controversy in the top leaders of the Northwest.
