Start 1861: I Just Inherited the Dutch Throne Chapter 572

William IV said:

"The overseas provinces have to carry out land reform and democratic reform, which has led to tax reform. Before the Netherlands did not manage all overseas colonies in a territorial way, the overseas provinces collected very little land taxes and fees for plantation owners. , the taxes and fees paid by a local middle-level industrial and commercial person are about 5-6 times that of overseas plantation owners. After the tax system reform, the tax payment levels of the two tend to be balanced, and the tax obligations of the lower-level civilians can even be exempted. "

Home Secretary Jonrell nodded in agreement.

William IV: "For example, in the provinces of New South Wales, William (Victoria), Queensland and South Australia in mainland Australia, and Java in the Dutch East Indies, the land tax per acre has been levied from 1 Dutch guilder before 1864 rose to 100 Dutch guilders in 1868. The taxable output value of all 20 overseas provinces in 1864 was less than 5% of the entire Kingdom of the Netherlands, but in the last year of 1868, the taxes paid The proportion has already accounted for 12%, accounting for 60% of the Dutch tax payment."

When William IV said this, this time Jane von Capel nodded most enthusiastically.

William IV: "Many plantation owners had to sell their land at a low price or confiscated their land because they paid too high taxes and could not pay the taxes. This caused the land price to drop sharply, by 50%-70%. A part of the land was sold to the natives, which formed the native small farmers. These can effectively solve the dissatisfaction of the natives and the white poor.”

Jonrell and Tolbeck also agreed, and Agriculture Minister Gates even agreed with it from the bottom of his heart.

William IV: "Third, reward industry and commerce, support, finance railways, and promote the development of the commodity economy. One should learn from New Wales, where Sydney is located. In order to support this policy, the province has issued hundreds of company charters. A special bill was also set up to stipulate: once some industrial and commercial enterprises profit less than 4%, they will be given preferential tax exemptions, which will increase everyone's desire to do business."

Industry Minister Wem Cotter: "Your Majesty's approach will greatly intensify the enthusiasm for doing business in the Netherlands"

William IV: "The investment in railways by local governments is also very huge. For each railway construction, the state government will subsidize 200,000 guilders. I think the Ministry of Finance should set up 250 million guilders for 20 years (10 million sterling) railway bonds to subsidize railway construction.”

Transport Secretary John also agrees, because in this way, the funds for the construction of transport infrastructure will be mobilized, and private funds will also be able to stimulate potential.

William IV: "The incentive policies of overseas provincial governments for industry and commerce have increased the investment of local developed businessmen and capital owners in overseas provinces, and increased capital and trade exchanges between local and overseas provinces, which will promote the development of overseas provinces. The economic development also creates business opportunities for those speculators, and there will be more and more people who get rich overnight.”

Ross, the Dutch justice minister, said: "As long as the money is obtained legally, it is worth encouraging the economic growth model"

William IV finally said: "The education system needs to be reformed, and more free public schools should be opened. This is the earliest implementation in mainland China and the Dutch East Indies. Everyone has seen it in small countries, and mainland Australia is also closely following these two places. In the past, white people have completed primary education 100%, but the literacy rate of indigenous people in the Far East is only 40%, and the indigenous people in Africa are only 10%. The illiteracy rate of African indigenous people has reached more than 90%.”

Education Minister Rude Bells was ashamed when he heard the words.

Seeing this, William IV said: "I know that this challenge is very big, but the population of white people in the Netherlands is only so large, and the European immigrants Bayern is less than 13 million, which greatly restricts the development of the Netherlands to become a world power. Potential, therefore, the remaining 19 million indigenous people are the key to our growth, and if they are used properly, they will be very important to us.

Provincial and municipal governments should realize that in order to have a good economic development, they must rely on a large number of talents, not only the top white high-end talents, but also the low-end labor force of the indigenous people. Some light industries such as garment manufacturing need to know this. The technology is not very strong but an indispensable labor force. That would free up more of the white Dutch workforce to other, more critical areas. "

William IV said to Education Minister Rude Bells and Chancellor of the Exchequer Jane von Capet: "Education is the only way to cultivate talents, so we must increase investment in education to help poor whites and people of color- Indigenous people of color offer the opportunity for low-cost or even free education.”

William IV thought that at this time, the main funding for the overseas provinces of the Netherlands came from the early establishment of the Free People's Bureau and local religious-religious groups in the Netherlands. From 1865 to 1868, the government's own civilian bureau's education funding has increased from 10 million guilders. It has risen to 50 million guilders (£2 million or $10 million), while the education funding raised by religious groups has reached 80 million guilders (£3.2 million ~www.mtlnovel.com~ more than 1.5 times that of the government) , which shows how powerful the Pope's appeal in the Netherlands is.

Education Minister Rude Bells: "The Ministry of Education has launched more projects to prepare for implementation. We have created many educational places from kindergartens to higher schools. At present, the majority of indigenous people are also aware of the importance of education. Some indigenous people are also aware of the importance of education. The rich also raised funds to build creative schools. From 1866 to 1868, the funding for the Aboriginal school has reached 4 million guilders, and the enrollment rate of Aboriginal children has doubled.”

After nodding, William IV said to Prime Minister Tolbeck and Home Secretary Jonrrell: "I also mentioned the issue of religious fundraising and indigenous self-funding to build schools. This involves the fifth item I want to say, That is the rise of philanthropy.

Affected by the different situations in the Netherlands overseas and the different levels of poverty, overseas provinces have also successively learned from the local establishment of hospitals, orphanages, nursing homes and other medical aid institutions, and also provided social welfare for the indigenous people. These all depend on the situation, but what should be done is still to be done. In short, hold the natives firmly in our hands, let them feel the benefits that they can see and touch, and let them understand that if they leave the rule of the Netherlands, what are they going to do? Not at all, so as to win their hearts of belonging, instead of forcing them to submit,"

William IV said to Bill Charlie, Director of the Royal Netherlands Intelligence Service, and Mackay Sean, Director of International Intelligence of the Netherlands: "In this regard, your Intelligence Service can use the resources at hand to drive public opinion, especially the propaganda of the newspapers must be in place, so that It is to assist the various departments such as the Ministry of the Interior and the Ministry of Education in their work.”

Bill Charlie and McKay Sean responded, "Yes, Your Majesty"
