Bulgarian Empire

　　 The artificial problem was solved, and Ferdinand was worried again.

　　 How to establish a development zone? What industry is the core?

　　 It is the end of the 19th century. It is definitely different from the 21st century. Many industries have not yet been born.

　　 And Bulgaria is just a small country with a population of 3.5 million, which is similar to the population of a city in the previous life.

　　 It doesn't matter what the real estate economy, the Internet economy, the high-tech field technology park, and the tourism service industry are all related to Bulgaria.

　　The only choice for Ferdinand is processing and manufacturing! Combining with the status quo of Bulgaria's industry, light industry occupies a dominant position, while heavy industry is still gestating. And in the light industry, food processing enterprises are the core.

　　 A bunch of food processing plants gathered together, Ferdinand can already think about that scene.

　　 If we are guiding, the first development zone in Bulgaria in the future will be a gathering place for foodies, forming a gourmet city.

　　 Oh, this is just the beginning! It is very easy to build a development zone. Ferdinand can make a decision with a slap of his head; but to give full play to the role of the development zone, it is necessary to consider issues more comprehensively.

First of all, transportation must be convenient enough to meet transportation requirements; secondly, safety must also be considered. The Balkans has always been a "European gunpowder barrel", which explodes at one point, and war threats must be considered. Third, human geography and water sources. , Industrial raw materials, etc. are also essential factors.

　　 After taking a round, Ferdinand found that there were few places in Bulgaria that met the conditions!

　　 Ferdinand will be even more busy next, and while consulting relevant information, he has to find ways to persuade the senior government.

　　 After a few days of tossing, Ferdinand was still hesitant about the choice of the development zone, and finally decided to give up and simply throw the trouble to the government.

　　 "Isn't the Constantine government the most energetic government in Bulgarian history? Then I will throw him another development zone, it must not be a problem!" Ferdinand thought irresponsibly

　　 was in the office, and Constantine, who was reviewing the progress of the First Five-Year Plan, suddenly said, "Ah cut".

　　 The assistant knocked on the door and strode forward and said, "Mr. Minister, the palace called just now, please come as soon as possible!"

　　 Hearing that it was Ferdinand’s request, Constantine put down the documents in his hand, and stood up and said to his assistant: "Well, I know. If you call back, I will go right away!"

　　……

　　 Constantine hurried over and met Ferdinand in the meeting room, after a courtesy greeting. Suspiciously said: "Your Excellency, what's the matter with you looking for me in such a hurry?"

　　 Ferdinand smiled and said, "Sit down first, and Alice will add a cup of coffee to Constantine!"

　　 Constantine slowly did it, but he felt a chill in his heart. He thought to himself: There is no good thing for the grandpa to be so polite! Isn't something wrong again?

　　 This is the experience summed up by Constantine, and it is also a fact recognized by the top Bulgarian leaders. Every time Ferdinand politely talks with people, it means that the next thing is very troublesome!

　　 If Ferdinand knew that Constantine arranged him in this way, he would definitely let him know what the majesty and inviolability of the king is.

　　 "Constantine, did you find out that Bulgaria's economic growth has started to decline recently!" Ferdinand asked in a positive tone

　　 Konstantin was startled, cold sweat was coming out, and he was secretly distressed: "What is the decline in economic growth? Bulgaria's economic growth was originally abnormal. It is entirely dependent on government investment in infrastructure, which is artificially driven, alright!"

　　 "Before, the annual growth rate was as high as 20%, which is completely against the laws of the market. Well, this is due to the small Bulgarian plate to create this record!"

　　 "Which country in the world has an economic growth rate comparable to that of Bulgaria now? Does the Grand Duke want to maintain this growth rate? No, he must be stopped. If this continues, the government must go bankrupt!"

Constantine looked at Ferdinand with a smile on his face, and seemed to have made up his mind, and said firmly: "Your Excellency, this is a normal phenomenon! In the past two years, the government has invested heavily in infrastructure and stimulated economic development. Create this record."

　　 "From the second half of this year, some of the projects in the First Five-Year Plan have been completed one after another. Government investment will definitely be reduced significantly in the later period, and the Bulgarian economy will gradually return to normalization in the future!"

　　Of course, Ferdinand is aware of this problem. Now, in Bulgaria’s total domestic investment, government investment accounts for three levels.

　　 If the government suddenly stopped investing in infrastructure, it would be a miracle that Bulgaria’s economy, not to mention continuous growth, can keep from falling.

　　 Ferdinand looked at Constantine and smiled and said, “You’re right. Now the Bulgarian economy is prosperous on the surface, but there is actually a crisis inside!”

"From the data alone, from 1887 to the present, the total economic volume has increased by almost 80%. Under normal circumstances, it is unthinkable, but the cost is a huge increase in government expenditures. !"

　　 "If we have not found a new economic growth point before the end of government investment in infrastructure, an economic crisis will break out!"

　　 Hearing about the economic crisis, Constantine was so scared that he broke out in cold sweat. That's right, once the government's basic projects are completed, all related industries will be affected. There will be no place to settle the more than 100,000 road workers.

　　 Thinking of this, Konstantin began to regret that the government investment accelerated Bulgaria’s industrialization, but he did not expect such serious consequences.

　　Looking at Constantine, who was unsuccessful, Ferdinand murmured secretly: "Oh, it's too much, it won't happen! Hell, who knows he's not so scared!"

　　 Ferdinand asked with concern: "Mr. Constantine, are you okay?"

　　 "Oh, I'm fine." Constantine said weakly

　　Ferdinand looked at the anxious Constantine, secretly rejoicing: Fortunately, you do not have a heart attack, otherwise you will go to God with your legs on the floor, where can I find the right person to take your class in the short term!

　　 "Don't worry too much. The current crisis will not break out, and during this time, we can still take measures to find new economic growth points!"

　　 Seeing that Ferdinand was confident, Constantine seemed to have a solution, and hurriedly asked: "Grand Duke, do you have any good solutions to solve the economic crisis?"

　　 Ferdinand thought, of course there are ways, but I can’t say! If I tell you now, it can be solved by starting a war, and it won't scare you to death!

　　 "I intend to establish a development zone to promote economic development!"

　　 Constantine looked at Ferdinand and asked in confusion: "Your Excellency, what is a development zone?"
