The investment in the Valencia Shipyard was only 25 million Pessetas, which for Carlo was just a small test of his skills.
Next, Carlo mobilized a large amount of funds to invest in and support Spain's relatively weak heavy industries, such as metallurgy, machinery manufacturing, chemicals, and materials.
In these five major areas, each received an average investment of more than 20 million Pessetas, with a cumulative investment exceeding 100 million Pessetas, marking his substantial commitment.
Even with an investment of over 100 million Pessetas, it was still impossible to rapidly advance these industries in a short period. What could be achieved was effectively promoting industry upgrades, which would take a long time to yield certain results.
At least with more than 100 million Pessetas from the Royal Family's support, private enterprises in these industries could continue to survive and have ample funds for technical improvements.
