Rigavia panicked.
What happened in Port Pierce spread throughout the country in just one day.
As a country that mainly exports agricultural products and construction materials, the only port in the country has been shut down.
What does it mean?
In the parliament building early the next morning, representatives of various industries gathered. They did not want to hear what the parliament said, “All of this is done by the giant industry.” They only demanded that this group of members must be within a month. Solve the trouble of sinking ships.
The barley industry has the largest number of representatives, coming from various cities.
They said aggressively: “In ten days, the nationwide barley harvest will start one after another.”
“Barley is the backbone of our economy, bringing in hundreds of millions of dollars in GDP every year.”
“At that time, Port Pierce will not be repaired well. I’m doing you guys. Have you thought about how to deal with those angry wheat farmers?”
“I… we can use rail transport.” A member of the Diet said, “We have an interconnected railway with Lithuania. With the help of this railway, we can send barley to European countries.”
“You pay the freight? The European railway department, you go to negotiate?”
A representative immediately complimented him.
The profit of bulk agricultural products is inherently low. The three Baltic countries are generally suitable for growing barley due to climate reasons.
Barley in Rigavia must be transported by rail, but Lithuania is the only country to borrow?
In more than forty countries in Europe, due to historical reasons, some of the railway track specifications of these countries are not interoperable, and the train wheels need to be replaced in order to move forward.
Let alone the problem of a train’s capacity of only a few thousand tons, the increased cost of railway transportation alone will be more than three times the price of ocean freight. There are also changes in the transportation time of the goods and the changes in the delivery of the goods by the customer.
Barley is not the exclusive product of Rigavia. The only railway with Lithuania is not mainly for freight, but for passenger transportation.
Can the European railway department re-plan the railway transportation for the barley in Rigavia?
Those beer factories, are they willing to wait for nearly half a month for the freight to change the pick-up location from the original convenient port to various freight transit railway stations?
And pay two-fifths of the price of barley?
“Please don’t keep thinking about barley. We still have building materials to solve.”
“Building materials, it is important to have daily necessities? Before most of our daily necessities came in through Port Pierce, where can we arrange rail transportation in a short time?”
Seeing that the parliament had a tendency to change into the vegetable market again, Mr. President had to pat the table, “Just be quiet.”
“I know the importance of Port Pierce to us.”
“But there has been a problem on the port side, and we cannot change this situation with any argument.”
Mr. President exhausted his speech, “Now I can tell you very seriously that Port Pierce will not return to normal in a short time. We can only do everything possible to transport our barley and construction materials by rail.”
“Even if we are facing a loss, it is better than letting barley rot on the ground.”
Someone retorted: “I am at a loss, and Mai Nong is happy?”
The president frowned, “This is not a question of whether we are happy or not. Our export economy in Rigavia has reached a precarious moment. We must work together to overcome this difficulty.”
“Mr. President, since yesterday, we have received news from some beer factories in Europe that they will cancel this year’s orders.”
“Among these, Britain, France, Spain, and a few beer factories far away from us have the most.”
“I think we should come up with a freight compensation plan for railway transportation as soon as possible.”
“Otherwise, the anger of the wheat farmers will drown us.”
…
The fierce quarrel meeting in the vegetable market lasted until noon and had to be interrupted.
During lunch time, Mr. President was exhausted and hid in the office to find some leisure.
But even if he had hidden here, he still couldn’t stop him, and the bad news came one after another.
First of all, the most powerful ocean construction group in the national law came to inspect and believed that there was only one way to save Port Pierce the fastest.
——Rebuild a port next to it.
Port Pierce is completely abolished.
The water depth near Pierce Port is only 30 meters. The sunken giant ship just took up this depth, and even a small cargo ship of several thousand tons could not be docked.
Today, the tens of thousands of tons of concrete loaded in the warehouse have become as hard as the port.
Demolition by blasting will not work either, let alone that it will take at least three years and more than four to five hundred million dollars in salvage costs. Just the shock wave generated by underwater blasting can shook a nearby port into chunks of tofu.
With this time and money, it is obviously better to rebuild a port.
Perhaps, Behemoth Industry can have a way.
As far as they know, the world’s most advanced marine crane ship is a super giant ship called the Titan, and the lifting capacity of this super giant ship may exceed 20,000 tons. If it has its assistance, the Ocean Construction Group may not have a solution.
However, in the current state of Rigavia, the relationship with the giant beast industry is obviously the most reliable to rebuild the new port.
The news from the European railway department is also very unoptimistic.
The railway department currently rejects Rigavia’s application for new freight train commuting, because Rigavia’s railway station does not have the capacity to add freight trains unless they renovate the railway station.
In addition, Lithuania also strongly opposes this move.
The addition of freight trains will seriously affect their passenger and freight trains.
There is only one railway between the two countries, and it is still a one-way non-electrified railway. Adding one or two more columns is okay. If there are more, do you still need the traffic in Lithuania?
The sum of these news is simply disheartening.
In the afternoon, ten minutes before the beginning of the parliament, the president who was in a daze in his office suddenly received a call from the station master of the railway station.
“General… Mr. President, it’s not good.”
“What’s wrong?” Mr. President immediately felt like the sky was spinning.
Although the webmaster hasn’t said anything bad, Mr. President suddenly has a strong feeling of bad feeling in his heart.
Could it be…
Behemoth Industry has dealt with the railway again?
This should not be possible, Mr. President kept praying in his heart.
The head of the railway station’s voice was full of fear, “Mr. President, our railway station received an anonymous call half an hour ago. That man claimed to be an adventurer who likes to explore the mountains.”
“He said that just before the call, he was walking along the Sioly and Dauga city railway line, preparing to go through the mountain tunnel and come to our country to explore.”
“result……”
“As a result, after passing through the tunnel, he found that the railway bridge that crossed a canyon in front was gone.”
“Mr. President, the man’s tone was very excited, so we sent someone over to check it suspiciously.”
“As a result, the thirty-meter-long railway bridge completely disappeared above the canyon.”
