Chapter 286: Centennial Talks (2)

(TXT ) (TXT ) (TXT ) "You have the final say? Is that really the case? If this is the case, let alone merging Lao Tzu's ship into China Merchants, it is to fund the construction of the Jinghan Railway, and Lao Tzu has nothing to say, but what you said doesn't count!

I appreciate your Sheng Xuanhuai's ability, but it's a pity that your path is not right, storytellers often say a sentence, success is also Xiao He defeat Xiao He, you Sheng Xuanhuai is Cheng is also an official businessman! ”

In addition to the restraint with the officialdom, Sheng Xuanhuai's biggest weakness is in the right to operate, everything is decided by the imperial court, there are too many constraints, this kind of business is different from the state-run, the business matters, by the imperial court too much, many things do not need to be restricted by the imperial court, before doing it will be restricted by some rules of the imperial court, and most of these so-called rules are absurd, a generation of officials and businessmen, if not changed, XT website

"Second master, save me!"

Li Dacheng's words were on top of Sheng Xuanhuai's sore spot, getting rid of Li Hongzhang's attachment to Zhang Zhidong and resisting Yuan Shikai was Sheng Xuanhuai's self-help method, but these methods could only save a momentary emergency, once the situation changed, he would still be exhausted.

Once he can't maintain his position, it's not just as simple as losing power, after the First Sino-Japanese War, Sheng Xuanhuai wanted to resign from the hat of officials and businessmen several times and get rid of the quagmire behind him, but the court didn't allow it!

Whether the imperial court values him as a person or his assets, this Sheng Xuanhuai knows in his heart, he wants to play the golden cicada shell, the fault is to give up the vast majority of industries, otherwise it is impossible, but to give up the vast majority of industries, it is also impossible for Sheng Xuanhuai.

Sheng Xuanhuai is not unclear about what Li Erye said, but as Li Erye said, he is too deeply tied to officialdom. I can't break free.

"Hey! This is the same as the Three Kingdoms Opera, let's be open and honest with each other, don't be afraid to say the wrong thing, even if you say the wrong thing, I can't do anything to you.

Now that you've opened your mouth. Then I'll talk about it, in fact, it's also simple, that is, to remove the official supervision and business office, and change it to a commercial office, or a joint stock or sole proprietorship, so that there is a way to live. Otherwise, no matter how much you have now, it will be a waste in the future.

Don't tell me that you can't break free, there are some things that are man-made, and if you don't want to do it, you can't break free! ”

For Sheng Xuanhuai's thoughts. Li Dacheng also pondered thoroughly, this person! If Sheng Xuanhuai is as he said, then his assets will be greatly discounted, Sheng Xuanhuai doesn't want to see his assets shrink on a large scale, so he trapped himself.

"But the court ......"

"Humph! You've got a southeast mutual guarantee in the south, what else do you mention about the imperial court?

You don't care about the court. It's those assets in your name, and some things that are yours are yours, not yours. No matter how much you fight, you can't fight!

Sometimes, it is not necessarily a bad thing to look away, how can you get it if you are willing to give it up or not?

In this shopping mall in the Qing Dynasty, there are too many blank spaces, you look at that Zhang Bishi. His main business is nothing more than sugar production. 80 million net worth! How big the Qing Dynasty is, how many such deals. As long as there is a suitable method within the rules, 80 million is really nothing! ”

The Qing Dynasty's fiscal taxes are sixty or seventy million a year, but what about the wealth of the Qing Dynasty? There are hundreds of seventy or eighty million, which is why the great powers and countries are staring at the Qing market, the commercial field of the Qing Dynasty is too monotonous, although the foreign affairs have driven the development of commerce, but those businesses are a business in the eyes of others, and the scale is too small in the eyes of Li Dacheng.

Dasheng Yarn Factory, the investment is only 600,000 taels, plus the later fundraising, it is only one or two million, this is the largest yarn factory in the Qing Dynasty, and the scale of other yarn factories is not as good as Dasheng! How many such factories do you need for a population of 40,000 in the Qing Dynasty? Dozens or hundreds are not much, and machine spinning cannot be called an industry in the Qing Dynasty, but only a few machine yarn factories.

Similarly, the so-called shipping industry in Sheng Xuanhuai's mouth, dozens of ships are the shipping industry? How many boatmen and sailors were there in the Qing Dynasty from south to north? More than a few million, a hundred boatmen, sailors, tens of thousands of ships, this is the shipping industry.

Relying on tens of thousands of spindles, dozens of ships are kings and hegemons, and the difference is too far and too far, as for industry, the Hanyang Iron Works is not counted, and the arsenals everywhere are considered to be somewhat shaped, but they are still too small to support the rise of this huge country.

There is not even a road network, the railway is just a joke, the so-called official roads everywhere, there are still some roads around the prefecture and county, out of the city, most of the official roads, can only be regarded as country roads, these are the gap between the Qing Dynasty and the great powers.

"Can the second master help Xingsun?"

"Naturally!

So be it! Let's not talk about it today, tomorrow you take Zhang Bishi and Meng Luochuan to Weishan Island, how about we have a good summary? ”

If Sheng Xuanhuai takes off the hat of an official businessman, Li Dacheng doesn't mind cooperating with him, he has a detailed understanding of Sheng Xuanhuai, Meng Luochuan and Li Dacheng, Zhang Bishi's side because of the channel, Li Dacheng only knows some big things, Meng Luochuan Li Dacheng wants to use his reputation, Zhang Bishi Li Dacheng wants to use his connections in Nanyang, and his ability is the most important side to cooperate with Sheng Xuanhuai.

Although Sheng Xuanhuai is an official businessman, he is quite pioneering in the field of business, the first joint-stock company in the Qing Dynasty, the first large-scale mine Daye Iron Mine, which uses machines to mine, and the first iron factory, Hanyang Iron Works, can continue to operate, Sheng Xuanhuai is indispensable.

After the success of business, running a school and doing charity, although Sheng Xuanhuai has a lot of controversy in the eyes of future generations, but it can't cover up his ability, if he can really work hand in hand with Sheng Xuanhuai, some of Li Dacheng's plans can be completed at least one or two years in advance.

For example, in the opening of mines, Daye, Pingxiang, Sheng Xuanhuai has practical experience, in the purchase of machinery and equipment also has a way, Shandong Zichuan iron, as long as Sheng Xuanhuai is sincere cooperation, I believe that in one year, Zichuan iron mine, iron plant will be built prototype, as long as there is no officialdom fetters, how to cooperate, Li Dacheng does not matter.

"How can the second master help me?"

Li Dacheng's words can't make Sheng Xuanhuai approve, no matter how he says it. He is also a big official and businessman with a net worth of tens of millions, and just two words are not enough to make Sheng Xuanhuai feel at ease.

"How do you want me to help you?"

People who are in a desperate situation, once they have a life-saving straw, will ask for more. Glancing at Sheng Xuanhuai, who was full of hope, Li Dacheng also wanted to hear how ambitious he was.

"How about letting Lord Belle help Xingsun enter the Ministry of Works?"

Entering the Ministry of Industry to be a department, when the dynasty is a product, Sheng Xuanhuai feels that he is much safer in this way, and after entering the sixth department, it is not difficult to go further with his ability. If he can achieve Li Zhongtang's position, he and his net worth will be stable.

"Huh...... How about I help you make a dragon chair? ”

With a sneer, Li Dacheng shook his head, officialdom is not the way, Sheng Xuanhuai wants to solve his dilemma once and for all in officialdom. That's impossible, even if he is pushed to the position of Beiyang minister, his stability will only be more than ten years, and when the time comes, it will inevitably be liquidated.

When encountering an opponent like Yuan Shikai, it is difficult to say whether he can be stable for more than ten years, compared to the experience of officialdom, Yuan Shikai is no worse than him. And there is still a mistake, there is another point that Sheng Xuanhuai is not as good as Yuan Shikai no matter what, Lao Yuan has a gun in his hand. That's the key.

"The second master laughed."

After listening to Second Master Li's words, the expression on Sheng Xuanhuai's face froze, and the hope on his face suddenly disappeared, replaced by a worried face.

"Jokes? I'm not joking at all, I want to solve your problem in officialdom, and it's not my fault to push you down on the dragon chair. Otherwise, your problem will never be solved, and you want to solve it in officialdom. There is no second way to go other than to make a dragon chair.

It's not difficult to help you make a dragon chair. But it's hard to say whether you can sit still, in my opinion, you can't sit steadily.

In the future, whether this dragon chair will have to be talked about or not, but I can be sure that no matter who can't sit on that dragon chair, the times are different!

Look at this world, the Qing Dynasty still has a few years of life, it's time to lay out in advance, if you don't do it, you won't have a chance to do it! ”

Sheng Xuanhuai wants to be greedy for power, it is impossible, he is willing to be reluctant to be reluctant, Li Dacheng doesn't want to watch him fall in the officialdom, so he puts his heart in his heart, if this person really doesn't want to abandon the hat of the official businessman, when he is unlucky, Li Dacheng doesn't mind falling into the well, after all, Sheng Xuanhuai still has millions of properties, and it is better to rot in his own pot than to cheapen others.

Listening to Li Dacheng's statement, Sheng Xuanhuai is also thinking about the gains and losses, the words are good, but sometimes he is really reluctant!

"Second master, there is no other way?"

"Yes! While doing official business, you can do your own business, as long as you can withstand it!

However, if you sit in such a position, it is impossible to make your business bigger, and once you become big, the people in the officialdom will inevitably participate in it, which you can't stop. ”

Sheng Xuanhuai's first rat at both ends, Li Dacheng can also understand, this is Sheng Xuanhuai's own path, what kind of go, Li Dacheng doesn't care, what he cares about is Sheng Xuanhuai's role in him, as long as Sheng Xuanhuai can walk with him all the way in the short term, after achieving the goal, what should be done.

"What kind of business is your own business?"

"Of course, it's a profitable business, but who will do it if it doesn't make money? I didn't expect Sheng to be so suspicious, I am a real person, and what I say is what I say, and I basically won't discount it.

How to go on the road, I don't count, you have the final say, that's your way, I still say that, as long as you don't betray the country, everything can be discussed, take the interests of the people of Daqing, ask for benefits from foreign devils, the ends of the earth are dead ends, whoever I want to kill, I must have killed! ”

Seeing that Sheng Xuanhuai was still hesitant, Li Dacheng once again said his bottom line, if you don't betray the country, you can talk about everything, and you will talk about it after you sell the country and kill it.

"Got it!

Second master, what are we going to talk about tomorrow, Xingsun can go back and prepare for it. ”

Speaking of this extent, Sheng Xuanhuai also recognized Li Dacheng's statement, Li Dacheng really wants to promise him something, so that Sheng Xuanhuai will have doubts, not promising only support, this is the attitude.

"There are too many railways, highways, industries, and mining, and we have to do a good job in the Qing Dynasty, and we have to do a good job in the business that the Qing Dynasty does not have, we have to learn from foreign devils, as long as it is business, it is within the scope of our discussion, let Zhang Meng and the two prepare some changes of clothes, maybe a day or two, we can't finish talking."

There are too many things to talk about, Li Dacheng doesn't know what to talk about now, after tomorrow's gathering, let's start with what Dacheng Gong did in Shandong, sugar and wine making is something that needs to be solved urgently, and Li Dacheng needs to rely on Zhang Bishi in the near future.

"Then Xingsun will go back to prepare, thank you for the second master's guidance."

Although there is no pressure to go away, but taking the line of Second Master Li is enough to make Sheng Xuanhuai feel at ease, Second Master Li is Gui Beile, as long as Gui Beile maintains him a little, during this time, he will not have an accident.

"Then I'm not polite."

got up and sent Sheng Xuanhuai off, Li Dacheng did not go to rest, but asked people to find his eldest nephew Li Chengyou, Dachenggong's recent progress, Li Dacheng only had a rough understanding.

In addition to building warehouses and stores in the near future, Dachenggong's most critical task is to promote sweet sorghum.

"Uncle, to promote sweet sorghum, Wuding Mansion is the best, followed by Yizhou Mansion, Jiaozhou Mansion again, Linqing Prefecture and Dongchang Mansion are also okay, other places are not very good, only a few states and counties can push sweet sorghum down."

Li Cheng said that Li Dacheng sketched a map of Shandong in his heart, the promotion of sweet sorghum has a great relationship with land disasters, Wuding Mansion is the Yellow River disaster area, almost every year flood, every year drought, in recent years, the people there also have a way to deal with flood and drought disasters, that is, to plant sorghum such as water and drought tolerant crops, sweet sorghum promotion in Wuding Province is the best, but also a disaster.

As for Yizhou Mansion, Li Dacheng went from Jiaozhou Mansion to Jinan Mansion, and he took that line, Yizhou Mansion has many mountains and thin land, and cotton, wheat and millet and the like are not good to grow when planted, and crops such as sorghum and sweet potatoes are the main crops of Yizhou Mansion, and sweet sorghum is promoted smoothly in Yizhou Mansion, and there is also evidence.

As for Jiaozhou Mansion, the general number of Dacheng Gong is set up in Jiaozhou Mansion, and many people near Jiaozhou Mansion have made a lot of money with Dacheng Gong during this time, which is determined by the mass base.

Relying on government decrees to promote sweet sorghum does not seem to be a method, this thing can only be done once, and if you do too much, you will inevitably get into trouble.

"Hmmm! Let's take these places as the standard! Where the planting area is too small, we will not build a sugar and wine workshop, and we will build it in the near future, taking the state and county as the benchmark, and not radiating to the township level.

Recently, I sent someone to Yantai to get in touch with the people of Rende Foreign Company to see if it was possible to let someone go there and build a few schools in Shandong to teach crochet lace work.

In addition, let people get together, Shandong's willow and straw craftsmen, gather to Weishan! ”

After calculating the things that need to be solved urgently, in addition to sugar and wine, it is the livelihood of the little people mentioned by Meng Luochuan, and this is also a problem that needs to be solved urgently.

After continuing to put a few burdens on the eldest nephew, Li Dacheng asked Dacheng about the manpower again, there is no shortage of manpower for the time being, thanks to Jiang Huiyun who was recruited in Cangzhou Mansion, if he hadn't gathered a group of masters in the south, Dacheng Gong's side would have faced a personnel crisis.

I kept talking to Li Chengyou late at night, and Li Dacheng let go of this poor nephew, and in the next period of time, Li Chengyou was afraid that he would be busy with his foot hitting the back of the head. (To be continued...) )
