After all, if you want to let workers come here to work, you have to build their basic living conditions first.

Apart from this, issues such as the security of the industrial area, transportation and the like require the personal participation of each minister to properly resolve, which is why most ministers have come along.

Convitly, the location chos for the first phase of the industrial area was not far from Leonora. After a short 0-minute car ride, Arthur and his party arrived at the selected site in the southwest of Leonora.

At this point, some people were already planning the specific location of the industrial area, dividing the area in detail according to the blueprints provided by the industrial sector to facilitate future construction.

Walking through, Arthur personally expericed the advantages and disadvantages of the currt industrial area.

The advantages are self-evidt; the mineral resources near the selected site for the industrial area are abundant, which creates a prerequisite for the establishmt of the industrial area.

But, the currt transportation vironmt of this area is not so good, only Leonora has a highway, and the road to the industrial area has only be temporarily wided and cannot be used normally in the future.

This means that the most important thing for the industrial area at prest is the construction of a railway connecting the southern industrial railway and the oping of a main road for trains and trucks to transport goods.

Thinking of this, Arthur looked at the Minister of Transportation and asked, "Minister Laur, wh can the transportation issue of the industrial area be solved?"

Minister Laur immediately replied, "Your Majesty, the specific design drawings for the industrial area have be completed, and road construction can be started at any time.

We estimate that under the premise of employing ts of thousands of indigous people, the transportation railway connecting the industrial area and the industrial railway can be completed and put into operation within a year, and the highway is expected to take just over six months."

Arthur th nodded in satisfaction and instructed, "The various constructions of the industrial area must be tak seriously and absolutely not shoddy. The industrial area and all its affiliated facilities are major projects for the country and a prerequisite for the future industrial developmt of Australasia.

I do not want to hear any stain on the industrial area in the future, do you understand?"

Arthur's words were not light, for a despotic monarch like him who held the power of life and death, such words were not only a warning but also a sharp sword hanging over the heads of these officials.

"I understand, Your Majesty. Please rest assured, I will personally supervise the road construction of the industrial area, suring that there will be no skimping or shoddy work," Minister Laur promised.

Minister of Industry Pierre also chimed in, since what Arthur said was about the tire industrial area, the responsibility of the Ministry of Industry was the heaviest of all.

Arthur nodded in satisfaction and, with a smile, said, "The construction of the industrial area is a national priority. If you find any problems during construction, you must report them promptly and not conceal anything. Of course, if there are any financial issues, your Cabinet Governmt can study and resolve them on your own.

As long as the budget is used for the right purpose, exceeding the budget is no problem."

Although the Finance Departmt has made a preliminary budget for the construction of the industrial area, after all, this is just a preliminary estimate, and it is inevitable that there will be overruns during construction.

Arthur expressed understanding for budget overruns, as long as all these financial budgets are used for the right purpose, ev if the budget is doubled, it is an acceptable situation.

After all, what Australasia needs now is not only to establish an industrial area, but also to establish a quality industrial area that can withstand scrutiny.

On such key national projects as the industrial area, Arthur does not allow any accidts or unexpected situations to happ.

If these officials turn a deaf ear to Arthur's words, they will also witness the power of a despotic monarch firsthand, who holds the power of life and death, which is not to be joked about.

The establishmt and layout of education and medical care cannot be fully determined right now.

After all, a large integrated and comprehsive industrial base will be built here, and it is only the first phase now. The corresponding medical and educational vironmts must be planned according to the complete form of the industrial base.

Good news is that the construction cycle of the industrial district will take at least a year and a half, plus the introduction of foreign factories and domestic capital. The time for the industrial district to fully start production may be at least two and a half years.

This period of time is sufficit for various departmts to establish corresponding education, medical care, public security, and transportation vironmts, thus providing a complete living vironmt for the industrial district.

In order to convitly distribute salaries to workers in the future, it is necessary to establish a Royal Bank near the industrial area.

However, this is a matter for Butler Kt, and Butler Kt will not disappoint Arthur.

Ev if it is just the construction of the first phase of the industrial area, it is estimated that ts of thousands of indigous people will be involved, striving to be completed as soon as possible and to sure both quality and quantity.

Currtly, the indigous workforce is gradually being prepared. Wh the construction team and the number of indigous people are all ready, it will be time for the industrial district to officially start construction.

Arthur believes that this time is not far away. After all, he has se a large number of indigous people in the industrial area, and it is estimated that the number of indigous people is almost ough, and they are just waiting for various construction teams from home and abroad.

After visiting the tire industrial base with the ministers from various departmts, Arthur stayed in Leonora Town for a few more days.

Actually, there was no need to stay at all, but upon hearing that the industrial district was about to officially start construction, Arthur decided to stay, so as not to make any futile trips before the start of construction.

After all, as a major national construction project like this, Arthur has to participate in its official commcemt.

After waiting for a few days, on January 7, 908, the construction of the Leonora Industrial District officially began.

Arthur attded the gbreaking ceremony and couraged all construction teams and officials at the ceremony.

Arthur repeatedly emphasized the importance of gineering quality, suring that the construction site must guarantee both quality and quantity, and th speed.

In order to sure the construction of the industrial area is not hindered, Arthur specifically arranged for the Ministry of Finance to allocate a total of two million Australian dollars to various departmts.

Combined, the total cost of the first phase of the industrial base is 8 million Australian dollars, comparable to the cost of four dreadnoughts.

However, wh the industrial district is successfully completed, the return on investmt for Australasia will be significant. This comprehsive industrial base will able Australasia's industry to reach a new level, not just in scale but also in terms of its foundation and diversity, achieving the status of an industrial powerhouse.

With the investmt of ts of thousands of indigous people, in just a few hours, the construction of the industrial area has become well-organized, and various facilities have begun construction according to differt divisions.

Naturally, Arthur doesn't have time to wait. After instructing the ministers from the various departmts again, Arthur decided to return to Sydney. After all, Sydney is about to celebrate another National Day, and Arthur needs to be there for the evt.

In fact, once the construction of the industrial area ters a stable stage, there is no need for the ministers from the various departmts to always be prest.

They only need to come and check the progress and specific conditions from time to time to sure that no problems arise.

After all, Arthur's emphasis on the industrial district is well known. If problems were to arise in the industrial district, they would most likely lose not only their official positions but also may face criminal charges.

After all, it only takes a word from Arthur to pin a criminal charge on someone. Although Arthur has never done this, it doesn't mean that Arthur doesn't have the power to do so.
