"First and foremost, industrial development. ”

Fernan, dipping his wine and drawing on the table, explained: "The reason why the Western powers were able to prey on our country was that it was far beyond the domestic level of industry.

In the past few years, because of the European war, the West's supervision of us has been slightly relaxed, and the domestic industry has also developed to a certain extent, but it is still far from enough.

In the past few years, there are still many enterprises in light industry, heavy industry, many small factories, and few large factories. Many industries are not able to grow, and the number of factories added is very limited.

Take the textile industry as an example, in the war in Europe, the number of domestic textile factories was 231, and it only rose to 475 in a few years.

The smelting industry was eight before the war, and now there are only twelve. Do you look at how many big tobacco houses have opened across the country?

There is also coal mining, as of last year, more than seventy percent of mechanical coal mining is also controlled by foreigners, people are using industry to card our neck, without their own national industry, they will always have to be sucked by people's neck, and they can't resist. ”

Xu Wenqiang listened quietly, and then asked: "Brother Nan, you also support industry to save the country?" I met with several directors of the General Chamber of Commerce today, and one of the directors surnamed Mu also adhered to the theory of industry to save the country, and pulled me to talk for a long time about reducing workers' wages. ”

"Isn't that the king of cotton yarn?"

Fei Nan shook his head: "Don't listen to his nonsense, he learned Ren Fu's set, but he still thinks about things from his own standpoint."

It is true that industry can revitalize the national strength, but the interests of the capitalists must not be regarded as the interests of the nation as a whole and above the interests of the workers. ”

Xu Wenqiang was a little puzzled, and he asked suspiciously: "But Brother Nan, didn't you say that you want to support industrial development, why do you want to suppress the capitalists?"

"This is not a repression. ”

Fernan patiently explained: "Industry is the basis for the take-off of the whole nation, but the capitalists are not. It doesn't work to paint a pie for the workers, what the workers need is something tangible, to be well fed, to be warmly clothed, and these are the most important things to them.

It is the most shameless act for capitalists to think that they can save more money when they want to save their wages.

If you want the horse to run, you have to give the horse some grass, right? As long as enough money is given, the workers will do it desperately, and the Chinese have never been afraid of anyone if they bear hardships and stand hard work. ”

"But there are also a lot of people among the workers who fish in troubled waters, and if the wages are raised, won't it let these people take advantage?"

Xu Wenqiang is very interested in this topic, and many of the directors and bosses of the chamber of commerce he has contacted are very worried about the efficiency of the factory, and if this problem can be solved, then the production efficiency of the factory will definitely be greatly improved.

"It's very simple! Package production to the household, piecework does not keep time, team competition, bonus system, there is a way, I will give you a detailed explanation. ”

Fei Nan waved his hand and continued: "In short, the level of industrial development is the embodiment of national strength, and if we want to not be oppressed, we must find ways to develop industry, and we must not be stuck by Western forces.

I sent you to the Ministry of Industry to play a role, which is also what Mr. Sun meant. If we want to catch up with the gap between European and American industries, we must give full play to our advantages.

What are our advantages? There are a lot of people! Some of them are laborers. A few years ago, the European war could not buy industrial equipment, but the European war has ended, shipping has also resumed, this time, is a good time to develop industry.

The war in Europe led to a significant reduction in the productivity of European countries, so after the opening of shipping in the middle of last year, all kinds of domestically produced goods began to be sold in a steady stream.

At this time, it is completely possible to exchange materials for equipment, and if you can negotiate, there may not be no opportunities. ”

Taking a sip of wine, Feinan continued: "In addition to industrial development, there is another very important area that I would like you to fully support, and that is education. ”

When Xu Wenqiang heard this, he was immediately awe-struck and nodded solemnly: "I agree with this, in fact, I originally planned to vigorously develop education and open a school." ”

"Well, industry can only change lives, but education can change a person's soul. ”

Fei Nan leaned back in his chair and thought seriously: "You can seek the help of the Chamber of Commerce on this point, anyone who opens a factory is naturally very aware of the shortage of talents, let them pay for the training of professional and technical talents for themselves, they must be willing."

But what I want you to do is basic education, starting from the baby. The wisdom of the youth is the wisdom of the country, this matter cannot be expected to be done by the official school, we have to find our own way.

Mr. Sun, I also said that Mrs. Song is also working on this matter, you are already a director of the Ministry of Industry, and you must vigorously promote this matter. ”

"I understand. ”

Xu Wenqiang listened carefully, for fear of missing a detail.

Fei Nan thought about it, and before he knew it, the sky outside the window had lit up.

With his tireless expertise, Fernan did not feel tired.

However, Xu Wenqiang has also survived until now, and he is also full of energy.

He was more excited, and many things that Fernan told him were things he had never heard of before.

Whether it is industrial development, basic education, or even humanistic psychology, biotechnology, astronomy and geography, no matter which aspect, it seems to have opened a door for him.

He listened so hungrily that it was as if he had returned to a college class.

Looking at the way Fei Nan talked eloquently, he couldn't help but feel guilty for his ignorance.

Before today, Feinan was not a very positive image in his mind.

Killing people without blinking, maneuvering between various forces, and doing everything for their own purposes, such a Fernan is more like a wicked person.

However, today's remarks completely subverted his cognition.

It turns out that people can be so complex.

It turned out that Fei Nan had the world in mind.

It turned out that there was still hope for the country.

Until he sent Fernan away, he was still in a trance.

Touching the less obvious scar on his forehead, that was where he was hit by the butt of a rifle by the Beiyang Army.

The butt of the rifle not only smashed his head, but also his conscience.

However, today he suddenly found that his heart was still full of blood, and his ideals were back.

......

Huanhuan woke up, and when Fei Nan entered the house, he happened to see her rubbing her eyes and looking for herself.

Picking her up, Fernan walked around the room, but found nothing.

It seems that the mysterious man did not reappear.

While helping Huanhuan wash his face and brush his teeth, Fei Nan called up the system interface and looked at the prompt.

Before talking to Xu Wenqiang last night, he received a prompt from the system about the follow-up tasks of the plot line.

Plot line serial quest (end) - for the country and the people

Task completion conditions (choose one): 1. Hold a business gathering with more than 100,000 participants. 2. Double the average monthly income of 100,000 people in Shanghai.

Reward for completing tasks: 1. Rating +250. 2. Random reward*1. 3. Final reward. 4. Special rewards.

This is the last task of the plot line of "Shanghai Tang", which is easy to say and difficult to say.

If Fei Nan just wanted to complete the task, then just get a million oceans, find a person with a monthly income of less than ten oceans and send it, then the task will naturally be completed.

But Fernan didn't want to take advantage of this loophole, he wanted to do something serious.
