Mikhail handed over the plan for agrarian reform to the cabinet for full implementation.

Prime Minister Pordobeschaev, Home Secretary Stolypin, and Agriculture Minister Demirit will do this in an all-round way. Among them, Demirit, as the Minister of Agriculture, naturally put all his energy into it. Prime Minister Podornotszaiv and Home Minister Stolypin assisted.

After all, the prime minister is too busy to focus on just one area. The Ministry of the Interior, on its part, is prepared to deal with landlords who are unwilling to sell their land.

In addition, the army side is ready. If necessary, the army will directly suppress it to ensure that the entire agrarian reform can be carried out smoothly.

In addition to agriculture, Mikhail also set his sights on transportation and industry.

The backward traffic situation of the Tsarist Empire must be changed. At the same time, the level of industrialization of the Russian Empire was very low, almost the lowest among the great powers.

In this era, an agricultural country obviously cannot become a world-class power, and it is necessary to make industry strong in order to become a strong country.

Therefore, the Russian Empire must vigorously develop transportation and industry.

To this end, Mikhail also specially summoned Prime Minister Pobedonoschaev, Finance Minister Ivan Goremekin, Transport Minister Saltykov and Minister of Industry and Commerce Nilatov and others.

“Gentlemen, I am very concerned about the current traffic situation in the Empire. Although, we are building the Trans-Siberian Railway. However, the current progress of the railway is still too slow. I hope that the Ministry of Transport will formulate a detailed plan to further accelerate the construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway, and strive to complete the main project of the Trans-Siberian Railway and realize its opening to traffic within five years. In addition, the subsidiary works of the Trans-Siberian Railway and the double-track plan will continue to be implemented! Mikhail looked serious.

Mikhail hoped that by the time of the future war with the Orientals, the Trans-Siberian Railway would have been opened to traffic.

In this way, the empire’s army and war materials could be continuously transported to the Far East by rail.

In the case of a huge gap in national strength between the two sides, it was not so easy for the Orientals to defeat the Russian Empire.

“Your Majesty, if the progress is to be accelerated, I am afraid that the funds required will increase by a great extent. If you want to build a double line, you need to spend a lot of money! Transport Minister Saltykov said with a frown.

“In terms of funds, the finance is fully supported.” Mikhail replied directly.

Saltykov nodded, if this problem can be solved, then he has no problems.

“Your Majesty, Siberia is sparsely populated, it is enough to build a railway, there is no need to build a double line!” Finance Minister Ivan Goremekin said.

After all, it costs a lot of money!

“It is true that the Siberian region is sparsely populated, but it is rich in resources. For the empire to develop rapidly, it is inseparable from the resources there. What’s more, after the completion of the double line, it will further increase the capacity of the railway, which is conducive to the control of Siberia and the Primorsky region of the Far East. At the same time, this is also considered from a strategic aspect. The people of the sun do not set are doing their best to support the oriental people, which has already posed a great threat to the empire. If the empire does not invest more, it is very likely to fall into crisis. Mikhail said.

“Your Majesty, do you mean that the Orientals will use force against us? Do they have the guts? The Prime Minister looked contemptuous of Donoschaiv.

The other ministers also had such expressions.

Obviously, people did not take the Toyo people seriously at all.

“The Oriental people really don’t have such guts. However, when the sun does not set to support them, they will have the courage. They defeated the Qing Empire before, wasn’t it the same? Mikhail said.

He did not intend to delve into the matter, and it did not matter if the ministers did not believe it, he was prepared for it.

“In addition to the need to speed up the construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway, the imperial railway network in Europe must also be established. The same is true of the road network. The roads of the empire are mostly dirt roads, and when it rains, they are full of mud. The empire needed to build asphalt or concrete roads, etc. The traffic situation changed, not only to protect the imperial people, but also to benefit the development of the empire’s industry and economy. In particular, such investment in infrastructure can stimulate the development of imperial industry! Mikhail continued.

“Yes, Your Majesty!” Transport Minister Saltykov replied excitedly.

He could hear that His Majesty the Tsar was preparing to do a big job in the field of transportation! This is undoubtedly a great thing.

At the same time, the empire’s industry also needs to be further accelerated. The level of industrialization of the empire is very low, which and the empire’s status as a world-class power are not tired at all, and it also seriously restricts the development of the empire’s national strength. Next, the empire needed to vigorously develop industry. In heavy industry, the empire can invest directly to accelerate its development. In light industry, private capital can be guided in. ”

Mikhail then made a request.
