In the past few decades, foreigners have become more and more proud of our land, three, this is our land! This is the foundation of this waiting, and if it continues like this, this great river and mountain will be decided by the foreign masters!

The three of them thought, should we be cheered up? ”

After Li Dacheng sat down, the negotiation began, it was supposed to be about business, but as soon as Li Dacheng opened his mouth, it was another big article, Li Erye didn't say anything in a row, Sheng Xuanhuai was also suspicious here, it didn't matter if he talked about business, but it was not good to talk too deeply in front of Zhang Meng.

"We understand what the second master means, Bi Shi and Jisheng may not have experienced it personally, but Xingsun has experienced this, and the whole country should be excited, but the major affairs of the country are not up to us businessmen!"

Sheng Xuanhuai retorted, Zhang Meng and the two also nodded slightly in approval, Li Dacheng said the truth, but what Sheng Xuanhuai said was also the truth, this is the Qing Dynasty, and it is not up to the businessmen to decide.

"What Master Sheng said is good, and it is also the current truth.

But! We are different from the merchants who roam the streets, with a net worth of millions, not only in the Qing Dynasty, but also in the world.

With a net worth of millions, we can't just be limited to one time and one place when we do business, we must have people in our eyes, which is the most important business we should do.

Making guns, making cannons, mining and smelting iron, can make the country rich and the people strong, but can't sugar, wine, and miscellaneous clothes, shoes and hats make the country rich and the people strong?

Meng Siye once said a sentence that I recognize, that is, the livelihood of the little people!

If our business is linked to the livelihood of the small people. Even if there are people in their eyes, even if they contribute to a rich country and a strong people.

Of the three people here, in terms of the livelihood of the little people, I think Meng Siye has done the best, and he is the best. Mr. Zhang! It's not nothing, compared with the investment of millions of taels, the people that Mr. Zhang can benefit are too little! Too little!

I wonder if the three of them agree with this? ”

Then Sheng Xuanhuai's rebuttal, Li Dacheng came up with one of his arguments, the livelihood of the small people! It's a little out of sight and can't be touched. Simply, Li Dacheng took the three of them as an example.

Meng Luochuan's trading was homespun cloth, silk and groceries, and farming and weaving were the basis of the small-scale peasant economy, and the people who were connected with his Sanxiang. The list is endless.

Sheng Xuanhuai's railways, shipping, mining, money villages, and pawnbroking can also directly or indirectly drive the livelihood of hundreds of thousands of people, and as for Zhang Bishi's investment, it seems that only a small part of the population in Yantai and Leizhou can benefit, and the scale is tens of thousands at most.

A small livelihood, a personal example, after listening to what Li Dacheng said. The three of them were frowning and pondering, directly linking their business with the livelihood of the little ones, and the three of them probably didn't think about it seriously. Even Meng Luochuan, who proposed the livelihood of the little people, is the same, many times the livelihood of the little people is just a sentence on his lips, and what he really cares about is Sanxiang's business.

"The second master's statement, Xingsun recognized, my industry can benefit the people at present, but it may not be the case in the future!

Railway and sea transportation can reach the north, south, central and west. With roads and ships, the output of the people can be transported. Export transportation can bring livelihood to the small people, and the more railways there are, the more ships there are. The more livelihoods the little people have, I don't know what the second master thinks? ”

Zhang Bishi and Meng Luochuan are still a little unable to let go, they can only be led by Sheng Xuanhuai, for the railways and shipping they are doing now, Sheng Xuanhuai also has full confidence, the territory of the Qing Dynasty is too large, there are too many types of goods, as long as the transportation is convenient, the livelihood of the small people will follow.

Li Erye said that he could not benefit too many people, and it also had a lot to do with the embarrassing situation that Sheng Xuanhuai was facing now, the Qing Dynasty was too much worse in railway shipping, there was no certain scale, and the livelihood that railways and ships could bring to the small people was indeed very limited.

"Not good!

If nothing else, let's talk about the Jinghan Railway! How much cargo does Shanda think can be transported after the opening of the Jinghan Railway? And how many people can afford it? Is the land grain route connecting the north and south done? How long does it take to recoup the investment? ”

Leaving aside Sheng Xuanhuai's telegraph, shipping, money bank, and pawnshop, Li Dacheng only talked about the railway, the Jinghan Railway is 2,000 miles, which sounds good, but the embarrassment is the most clear to Sheng Xuanhuai, who has now taken over, and most of Li Erye's questions are asked on the soft underbelly of the Jinghan Railway.

"But what does this have to do with food?"

Li Dacheng's problem is sharp, and Sheng Xuanhuai's side is the same, the relationship between grain and railways exists in Sheng Xuanhuai's opinion, but it is not big.

"Then we have to talk about this sweet sorghum, I have talked to Master Sheng and Meng Siye about this, I wonder if Mr. Zhang thinks this sweet sorghum is worth promoting?"

Sheng Xuanhuai said that Zhang Bishi is today's guest of honor, in Li Dacheng's view, it is true, today's Dacheng Gong really needs this Nanyang businessman to take a hand, the technology of green pole sugar and liquor, Zhang Bishi not only has but also mature, if Zhang Bishi can fully support, Li Dacheng's sweet sorghum industry can be formed in Shandong within two years, and can be formed in Daqing within five years, if there is no support from Zhang Bishi, Li Dacheng can also take the road of foreign business, but this time will be doubled.

Li Dacheng's plot against Zhang Bishi is not technology, the technology of making sugar and wine is not a secret, the real key is the technicians who can skillfully use these technologies, with these technicians, we should be able to see the results this year, if not, we can only build a factory this year, and the real technology may have to wait until two or three years later.

"Of course it's worth it, the French have tried it before, and I heard that the Americans also want to try it on Lu Su, but I don't know what I can do for Second Master Li?"

Zhang Bishi knew a lot about Lu Su, the French introduced from the Shanghai Sea Road, and the Americans followed, which would impact the business intelligence of his basic industry. How could he not know?

Although the yield of Lusu sugar is not as good as that of sugarcane, the scope of Lusu can be promoted is too large, and almost all the north and south of the Qing Dynasty can plant Lusu. In terms of sugar production, Nanyang is nothing, the Qing Dynasty is too big, and one-tenth of the land is used to grow Lu Su, and the sugar production may be several times that of Nanyang.

With the power of this Second Master Li, the success rate of promoting Lu Su is also quite large. The sugar and liquor made by Lu Suqing are also in considerable demand in the international market, and the merchants seek profits, and once someone tastes the sweetness, the sugar industry of the Qing Dynasty will replace Nanyang, and it will only be three or two years.

Sugar, liquor, vinegar. This is only the output of the green pole, if the by-products such as waste honey, sugar residue, distiller's grains, vinegar grains and other by-products can be used well, there are also considerable benefits, once these are promoted, his industry will be fatally impacted, and it is not too difficult to be replaced by this Li Erye.

As long as this Second Master Li can open up the market well, maybe five years later, he will be the king of sugar and wine in Asia. Although he was extremely resistant in his heart, for the sake of face, Zhang Bishi still said kind words.

"It depends on what Mr. Zhang means!"

"Look at what I mean. What does the second master mean by this? ”

Li Dacheng's sincerity made Zhang Bishi a little confused, looking at his own meaning, what he said was no different from not saying it, the scale of this, he was not easy to grasp.

"I built Dacheng Gong in Shandong. Presumably, Mr. Zhang knows about the promotion of sweet sorghum. It is Dacheng Gong who is doing it, and the purchase and sale of green poles and sorghum rice in the future. It is also to be done by Dachenggong.

On top of the two items of Qinggang sugar making and wine, Dacheng Gong is still a newcomer and needs Mr. Zhang's care.

Of course, Dacheng Gong will not let Mr. Zhang contribute in vain, or Mr. Zhang will become a shareholder, or Dacheng Gong will invest in the acquisition, these are all feasible, of course, if Mr. Zhang has other methods, he might as well say it, in business, I will not let Mr. Zhang suffer. ”

After talking about the types of cooperation in detail, Li Dacheng still put the initiative in the hands of Zhang Bishi, some things can't be done on his own, and he also hopes that Dacheng can do all the business in the world, but this is obviously impossible.

"Mergers and acquisitions, acquisitions, and other methods, I understand what the second master means, what the second master wants is the technology and machinery and equipment for making sugar and wine? This Zhang has some ways. ”

Li Erye's difficulties, Zhang Bishi also knows that the local method of making sugar and wine is far less efficient than that of Western law, and if you want to expand your income, it is the only way to use Western method to give up the soil method.

The Qing Dynasty did not have a Western method of making sugar and wine, and the Jingu War and the subsequent plague affected many things, but I was afraid that this Second Master Li would not be able to get a suitable Western Law for a while, so he thought of cooperating with him, and after thinking of these, Zhang Bishi felt that maybe this Second Master Li's mind was more than that.

Afraid that this Second Master Li would make too unorthodox requests, Zhang Bishi opened his mouth and responded to the matter of planning the technical equipment for making sugar and wine for Dachenggong, but he underestimated Li Dacheng's ambitions.

"Huh...... Technical equipment, as long as there is money, how much you need, Mr. Zhang, Shanda people are all from the past, the most important thing to do business is not these, but talents!

The Weishan Medical House I planned is not a place to specialize in studying medicine, Westerners want to learn Chinese medicine in the medical institution, it's simple! Bring the subjects in their university to Weishan, the university is built, it is naturally easy to study medicine, you can't bring these things, and it is difficult to study medicine!

There will be no shortage of talent in the next few decades, but now there is too much of a shortage!

What I am most lacking now is a technician who can make sugar and wine in the West, can Mr. Zhang help in the matter of talents? ”

Hearing Second Master Li's statement, Zhang Bishi's heart chuckled, it was really the most unfavorable situation he thought, this Second Master Li really wanted to plot his net worth.

"Second master, in business, such a technician is the foundation for domestic businesses, as well as for factories in Nanyang and even countries around the world!

You are asking for such a request, it is excessive! ”

When it comes to his net worth, Zhang Bishi has to argue with reason, the good technicians under his command can be counted with his fingers, and there are only ten or eight of them, such a good technician, he can't be hired for money, these technicians in his hands have spent a lot of effort and energy, and they have been cultivated little by little, Li Erye wants to even end the pot with a word, which is obviously impossible.

"I know! So I invited Mr. Zhang here. ”

With a confident smile on his face, Li Dacheng replied, if the request was simple, he didn't need to invite the three of them to meet and discuss, it was because the request was too much, so he needed to sit down and talk.

Listening to Li Dacheng's statement, Zhang Bishi smiled helplessly, and did not reply, but looked at Sheng Xuanhuai, he returned to the Qing Dynasty from Nanyang, although he had the idea of returning to his homeland, but it was inseparable from Sheng Xuanhuai's warm invitation, and now Li Erye wants to plot his foundation, and Sheng Xuanhuai needs to come forward to make peace.

"Brother Bishi, don't worry about it first, presumably the second master has a saying, and with the second master's mind, he will not do anything to take it by force."

was dragged out by Zhang Bishi to block the drive, Sheng Xuanhuai was also worried, if this Second Master Li didn't say anything, I am afraid this matter would be difficult.

"That's what Master Shan! I have a saying, if half of the land in Shandong Province is planted with sweet sorghum, Mr. Zhang should be able to roughly estimate the yield, right?

How does the sugar production of Shandong Province compare with the sugar industry in Nanyang as a whole? ”

Seeing the helpless smiles on the faces of the two, Li Dacheng didn't let the two of them suffer too much, but asked Zhang Bishi a question.

"The second master planned Lu Su sugar production, taking seeds and grain is the first, so that Lu Su's sugar production will be greatly affected, if grain is the first, the sugar production of Shandong Province is lower than that of Nanyang Sugar Industry.

If sugar production is the mainstay, the sugar production of Shandong Province is comparable to that of Nanyang, and making wine and vinegar from sugar residue is just a sideline, which is not easy to estimate. ”

As for Lu Su, a substitute for sugarcane, Zhang Bishi studied much more deeply than Li Dacheng, and although he did not know much about the amount of land in Shandong, his estimate was also very different.

The Qing Dynasty is not only a province in Shandong, but also the Lu Su that can be planted in the north and south does not have high requirements for land, so that many poor fields and mountains can be used to plant Lu Su, once the Western method of sugar industry is popular, the impact on the Nanyang sugar industry will be fatal, because the Qing Dynasty sugar industry promoted by Li Erye is just a sideline business to protect grain.

Compared with the sugar production of Nanyang's plantations, only the sideline business makes the sugar industry planned by Li Erye firmly invincible and fight a price war, and the plantations and sugar merchants in Nanyang are definitely not his opponents.

Even if this matter is still being planned, but Zhang Bishi knows that this is a foregone conclusion, and he has to consider changing careers, even without his own help, the sugar industry planned by Li Erye will replace the position of Nanyang Sugar Industry in five years at most, and five years is not a long time for a business plan of this scale.

"Oh...... This is the bottom line of taking seeds to protect grain, and even if the sugar production is affected, it is necessary to focus on grain conservation.

Mr. Zhang, can you estimate again, after the green pole sugar production, how much more will the income of this mu of land be compared with now? ”

Talking about business, it is impossible to impress Zhang Bishi and Sheng Xuanhuai, the promotion of sweet sorghum is not only Zhang Bishi's burden, but also has a great relationship with Sheng Xuanhuai, and even has a lot to do with Meng Luochuan, land income is directly related to the livelihood of small people, this is the key to Li Dacheng's words.
