Of course, Bulgaria's industry is still dominated by light industry, and agricultural processing enterprises are the most prominent.
84 There are a total of 84 agricultural product processing enterprises across the country, accounting for 25% of the total number of enterprises, and 8 processing enterprises with assets exceeding 5 million levs. Its total output value accounts for 35.4% of the total industrial output value, and flour mills rank first in the food industry.
However, the monopoly economy still dominates. Ferdinand's Shuanghui Food Group, a company accounts for more than 70% of the output value, almost monopolizing all exports!
领域 The field of machinery manufacturing is still the biggest shortcoming of Bulgaria! Except for the "Bulgarian Machinery Factory" created by Ferdinand, there is no one to take the shot.
The few remaining machinery factories are also single products lacking market competitiveness. Even if the Bulgarian government has waived taxes, it is still struggling on the survival line.
In contrast, Ferdinand's Bulgarian machinery factory is much better, and it is already a comprehensive machinery manufacturing group.
Basically, it can copy the main machinery in the world, such as textile machines, reeling machines, most steam engines and other products. The quality has been in line with international standards!
Even made a car, but it is not yet available on the market, either the cost is too high or the performance is too poor to be competitive in the market!
At the same time, Bulgaria Machinery Plant is also the largest spare parts manufacturer and supplier in Southeast Europe, with a market share of about 53.5%. The machinery factory can proudly announce that there are no parts in the world that they cannot imitate!
By the end of 1895, Bulgaria had a total of more than 9,800 kilometers of railways and 15,000 kilometers of highways. The main trunk lines were basically connected. Although the traffic level is not as good as that of Western Europe, it is an absolute ride in Southeast Europe.
In the field of basic education, Ferdinand can proudly announce that Bulgaria is already the world's top level! Although there is no compulsory education, it is almost the same. The primary school enrollment rate in Bulgaria has reached 96.6%.
The enrollment rate of Middle School reached an astonishing 20.4%, surpassing the powers and ranking first in the world! (Historical is the world's first)
Of course, higher education, Bulgaria is still far from the powers. There is only one science university in the country, supplemented by more than ten various vocational education colleges, which is all for Bulgaria's higher education!
It's not that Ferdinand doesn't want to go to a few more universities. It is really a university professor this year. There are treasures everywhere. It is not easy to be able to make up the teachers of Bulgarian universities!
Between quality and quantity, Ferdinand did not hesitate to choose quality. If the quantity is not enough, use technical school to make up!
Anyway, the main purpose of Bulgarian University is to cultivate cutting-edge talents. Based on the population base of Bulgaria, the number of enrollment of five to six hundred people per year basically wipes out geniuses!
Compared with only 2,000 poor students in Bulgaria, the scale of vocational colleges is much larger, with more than 38,000 teachers and students.
其中 Among them, the personnel commissioned by the factory accounted for a considerable proportion! Since it is training engineers, the requirements are much lower!
Compared with education, the development of Bulgaria's remedy sector is far behind. At the end of the 19th century, there were not many advanced medical devices, and doctors could not rely on mechanical examinations to treat diseases. Most of them could only rely on experience.
Therefore, the training period for doctors is much longer. Unlike doctors trained in the last four or five years, there is no ten or eight years of study in this era. Don't want to start a teacher!
Ferdinand is powerless because of a lack of adequate doctors. The measures taken in the short term are still: organizing local doctors and conducting short-term training. How much can be improved.
As for the medical college, sorry for not having graduated yet? The earliest group of students have only studied for seven or eight years, and are still interns now, accumulating experience!
Of course, the level of medical care has been greatly improved. It is much easier to train nurses, and basically it can basically meet the needs.
In 1895, Bulgaria's total import and export trade amounted to 760 million levs, a nearly fourfold increase from 1887. The total import is 365 million levs, the total value is 395 million levs, and the trade surplus is 30 million levs.
Among them, trade with Russia accounts for 71.5% of the total. It is Bulgaria's largest trading partner and has always been a trade surplus in this trade. Of course, the introduction of immigration expenditure is basically a trade balance!
Financial revenue continued to grow rapidly, an increase of 25% over 1894, reaching 218 million levs! Far higher than the 13% growth rate of Bulgaria's economy, which is mainly the bonus of the "One Five Plan"!
In order to stimulate economic development and encourage private capital to invest in industry, the Bulgarian government has taken administrative measures to intervene in the market. Provided many industries with tax benefits ranging in years. Now some companies have reached the tax cut time, and government finances have started to harvest dividends!
After listening to the cabinet report, Ferdinand secretly sighed: Not easy! After ten years of hard work, Bulgaria has finally developed by leaps and bounds, both in the field of industry and agriculture and in the military field, it has achieved remarkable development!
I saw Ferdinand nodded and said, "Yes! I have been working hard for ten years, and today Bulgaria can be said to be the threshold for entering the industrial country!
However, now we still can't relax, new challenges are coming, Jackie Chan and Worm are here!
The next year is the most crucial year since the founding of Bulgaria! What is the plan for the cabinet? "
Prime Minister Constantine calmly said, "Dagong, next year, except for the implementation of the" Two Five-Year Plan "that has been formulated, the government does not plan to carry out any major construction!
保证 In order to ensure an advantage in the upcoming war The cabinet will invest the most energy to prepare for the war and maximize the potential of our war! "
Jeff Ferdinand nodded, motioning to continue.
The current situation in Bulgaria is known to everyone who is sitting. Industrial development has almost reached the limit of this country!
Raw materials and market, these two dual factors restrict the further development of Bulgaria!
This is also the previous estimation error of Ferdinand. If the 1894 War did not consume some of the supplies, the rapid development of the Bulgarian economy would have stopped!
No way, who can call Bulgaria's limited market? And international trade, for most small and medium enterprises, is undoubtedly a dream!
First of all, product quality is not superior to developed countries.
Secondly, Bulgarian products are exported by land: the cost is too high, and the farthest reaches Austria-Hungary is the limit;
Export by sea: In addition to the Russian Empire, the Ottoman Empire, and Romania, if you export to other countries, you must first be levied a tariff by the Ottoman Empire and raise the cost! After increasing a tariff, the price also tends to be inferior.
This is why, one of the reasons for the booming trade between Bulgaria and Russia is that they were forced out and blocked by the chickens. Except for a few special products, other products are difficult to compete internationally!
Of course, there are disadvantages and advantages, and industrial and commercial products of Western European industrial powers must also experience double tariffs when entering Russia. Regardless of quality, the price alone adds freight and another tariff, but the competitiveness is not comparable to Bulgarian products!
Similarly, the export of Russian goods (mainly food and industrial raw materials) had to be peeled by the Ottomans, seriously blocking the way of the noble masters!
