Travel through the 1945 super power construction secret base

The next day, major newspapers reported the news that the Xincheng Canal was completed, and the news attracted widespread attention.

Not only that, newspapers in Southeast Asia also published a shocking photo.

A huge battleship slowly passed through the canal.

The scene is breathtaking and demonstrates the scale and versatility of the New Town Canal.

With the completion of the canal, cargo ships in the new city no longer need to pass through the busy Strait of Malacca.

They can be loaded directly into ships at Neustadt Port and sail to their destination via the Neustadt Canal.

In this way, the transportation time is greatly shortened and the time to reach the mainland can be saved by three days.

Shortly after the canal was completed, Thai Prime Minister Sarit personally visited the new city.

At his strong request, Wang Ze agreed to meet with him for communication.

Wang Ze couldn't help but be surprised when the other party spoke to him in fluent Chinese.

Although there was still something strange about the accent, he could clearly hear what the other person was saying.

Regarding Wang Ze's curiosity about his Chinese proficiency, Sali smiled and explained: "Although I am not Chinese, I have many Chinese friends. Therefore, I can still understand Chinese. Especially after the opening of the new city a few years ago, I studied Chinese seriously and now I can express myself."

This explanation greatly changed Wang Ze's impression of Sali and made him like him more.

So when Sarit asked for Thai ships to pass through the canal, Wang Ze readily agreed.

This time, Wang Ze showed great concessions, saying that the two sides will establish friendly neighborly relations and promised to give special care to Thailand.

Thai ships will be allowed to pass through the canal in the future, but will have lower priority than ships from the new city.

Once encountering Xincheng ships, Thai ships must give way first.

Regarding the issue of fees, Wang Ze generously stated that he would provide Thailand with an annual service package of 10 million Singapore dollars per year.

Wang Ze waived this little money so that Thailand could use the canal.

After hearing the news, Sali was so excited that he couldn't control himself and kept expressing his gratitude to Wang Ze.

Even in private, he suggested that Wang Ze should become a member of the royal family and manage the new city in a royal capacity.

Sarit was a staunch supporter of authoritarianism.

In his eyes, the existing political system in the new city is essentially an autocratic government, so why not just adopt a monarchy?

Why do we need to cover it up through an organization like the Patriarchs' Council?

Wang Ze also never expected that Sali could talk about it to such an extent in private.

Has the relationship between Thailand and New Town developed to such a close level?

In fact, what Wang Ze did not know was that Sarit came to power through a coup in 1959. Sarit did not feel that the loss of land by the previous government was a loss. He even felt that it was because of this that he was able to successfully reach this position so smoothly.

He would never confront Xincheng's military force head-on. After all, he knew well that if a real fight broke out, Thailand would definitely not be its opponent.

Therefore, in domestic propaganda in Thailand, Sarit attributed all the responsibility for the loss of territory to the previous president.

He said that the failure was caused by the greed of his predecessor.

At the same time, he also vigorously advocated peace and friendly coexistence with the new city.

In this way, not only can we reduce our own pressure, but we can also win the support of the people.

It is precisely because of his publicity that the new city and the Thai border have become more and more prosperous.

This is also one of the reasons why Thailand grants visa-free policy to new city residents.

Later, Sarit also proposed to purchase rifles from Xincheng for the Thai army to replace their equipment. Wang Ze also agreed. Later, military personnel will have detailed discussions with the Thai side.

When Sali left Wang Ze, his face was filled with a satisfied smile.

He felt that the visit was very successful, not only solving the canal problem but also gaining support for the new city.

After Sali left, Wang Ze told Wang Jixin the results of the communication.

When Wang Jixin heard that Thailand was temporarily free, he didn’t say much.

He knew that although it seemed that Xincheng had made concessions on the surface, in fact Xincheng did not suffer any loss.

After all, the cost of building the canal in the new city is very low, and is not as huge as outsiders speculate.

The main difficult mountainous areas to build were all constructed by Wang Ze using his supernatural powers, and the cost was probably just the fuel cost of the ship carrying Wang Ze.

Anyway, the government doesn't have to spend much money, so just give it to Thailand for free. This also gives Xincheng the means to control Thailand instead of just threatening it with force. Wang Jixin feels that it is worth it to spend 10 million in exchange for a loyal neighbor.

Wang Jixin signed the canal agreement with Thai Prime Minister Sarit in the new city government building.

It specifically stipulates that ships must give way to Xincheng ships when passing through the canal, and Xincheng personnel are required to check whether the goods are consistent with the documents.

Sarit agreed to everything. His goal was to allow Thai ships to pass through the New Town Canal. Everything else was minor issues.

In the future, Thai ships will be able to reach Bangkok directly through the canal, saving a lot of time.

The time saved can be converted into money and can also make Thailand's various agricultural products more competitive.

The success of this visit made Sarit immediately promote it vigorously upon returning to Thailand, as it was his political achievement.

It is also because of this success that he has more motivation to learn Chinese. He hopes that next time he goes to Xincheng, he will not have accent problems.

After half a month of discussion, the criminal law was finally finalized.

There are still civil laws that need to be determined, but Xincheng can't wait.

Wang Jixin considered establishing the country in December, otherwise it would be troublesome if it was delayed until the rainy season.

Wang Jixin felt that it was inappropriate to hold the National Day parade in the rain.

So after deciding on the national anthem with Wang Ze, they officially began the process of building a nation.

The melody of this song is passionate and the lyrics are powerful, which makes people feel excited when listening to it.

The creator of this song is a composer from Hong Kong. Nowadays, whether it is movies, TV series or music, Hong Kong is the core of the Chinese entertainment industry, and many excellent works and talents are here.

As for the TV station in the new city, after a period of construction, it is now basically completed.

Wang Chun worked hard day and night, which greatly accelerated the progress of the project.

Now we are just waiting for the day when the country is founded so that the TV station can officially start operation.

During this time, the TV station has conducted several test broadcasts and everything went very smoothly.

Various invitations have been sent to various countries, inviting leaders of various countries to attend the founding ceremony of the new city.

In the following days, various countries sent confirmation information of their arrival personnel.

The final founding date was set as December 1, 1960.

As the day approached, people spontaneously decorated every corner of the new city.

There were ribbons and colorful flags hung everywhere, and a festive atmosphere filled the air outside every house.

Every day the port of Xincheng is bustling with ships coming and going in an endless stream.

Xincheng Airport also welcomed special planes carrying heads of state from Europe and the United States, such as leaders from the United States, the Soviet Union and other countries.

Wang Jixin is busy every day receiving these guests from afar, communicating with them and showing them the development of the new city.
