869 Exchange of Interests
Rectification is very necessary, after all, these things are related to the future development of the Republican Army. Zhang Da's actions seem very cruel, but they are very necessary.
For a while, the entire Dongcheng area became chickens and dogs, and many people objected, but there was no way. After all, if you don't follow this method, you may not be able to eat, and what it feels like not to eat, everyone will know very well in their hearts that it is better not to do such a thing.
Zhang Da's efficiency is also rapidly activating, and he has formed his own management group. In addition, a small organization similar to the General Staff has been established to maintain operations, and such a speed can greatly speed up the management. Everything will be in a state of efficiency, which is extremely beneficial for the IRA.
Handan, a hotel reception room. Xun Yu finally found the person he needed to find.
If you borrow money directly from the bank, it is more difficult, after all, it has a lot to do with politics. The Lijiazhuang side has still not relented, and there has not been much progress on the issue of arms export trade.
Xun Yu was well aware of Cao Cao's financial situation, and it had cost a lot of money to build up an army of his own, and if he bought a large amount of arms, especially from those arms dealers who were directly related to the Republican Army, they might not be able to sustain themselves with only one company. The arms they sell are extremely expensive, but there is nothing they can do. The other side has such an advantage, they simply can't do anything to the other side. That's where they are. Because the other side has a monopoly on all the arms trade.
If you buy it directly, it will cost too much, and Xun Yu's method is still to get support from the Republican Army, just like Dong Zhuo.
After all, Xun Yu has been here for a long time, and he knows very well the way the Republican Army operates, and if he looks for it directly, it is difficult to find a way. So he met with a middle-aged local councilor. He's just a businessman. The business is not very big, but it is very prestigious in the local area. He is a good person, through him, he can contact more members of parliament, and then submit some bills, which in turn will affect the decision-making level of the IRA. It's kind of a curvilinear route. It didn't sound too good, but it was the best he could come up with.
"Doing business, you can understand it as resource allocation. Resources, do you understand? The congressman said in a way that he had come from.
"I don't understand." Xun Yu said with a smile. Doing business is simple, but sometimes it's complicated, but he knows that the IRA cares a lot about doing business, and they are very concerned about doing business, which is an extremely important thing for them, and if they miss such a thing, it may have a big impact on them.
"It's very simple, what is lacking in Handan now, what can you make up for this shortcoming, this is the allocation of resources for us. If you want to do what you want to do, you must first be able to impress a lot of people, and make such a thing seem to be beneficial to everyone, so that such a thing can be done, otherwise, it is difficult for me to persuade that parliamentarians are actually representatives of various interests, and discussing things there is actually an exchange of interests. This is extremely important to us. The councillor said.
Speaking of which, it is very clear. Xun Yu also nodded and agreed with some of these views, after all, he has a deep understanding of this, and there has been a great change in understanding. This kind of thing is definitely not something that can be done all at once, but it is not a situation that can be changed all at once. This often requires a lot of improvement.
"Please advise." Xun Yu said unceremoniously. It's better to let the other party put it forward clearly, so that you can deal with it calmly, if you wait until you passively deal with such a thing, it will be very troublesome. This is definitely not the outcome they would like to see.
"It's very simple, it's to find a way to mobilize more resources that you think you have, for example, the labor market in Handan has been lacking a lot of people recently, you know, although we don't agree with this kind of thing, but we still need to ensure the interests of some people, and a lot of the Republican Army is launched from the bottom. They need to increase their salaries and remuneration packages, but in terms of time, they have very strict time constraints, and most of them are in technical positions, which is extremely troublesome for us to improve our own profits. The councillor said.
Hearing this, Xun Yu suddenly understood what was going on. Labor, cheap labor.
The IRA repealed slavery laws, but it only worked for the people in the IRA, and in other places, the justice still did not reach more people, of course. This situation can be regarded as a great improvement, which is also an extremely beneficial result for many people. Of course, the IRA has also improved the wages and salaries of some illegal workers. But this is not the root cause of the problem.
With the continuous increase in remuneration packages, it is mainly some parliamentarians who want to get votes. They had to come up with higher wages and pay packages and a bill to limit working hours, and they still needed to pursue higher profit margins despite their compulsion. That's a big reason why they need illegal workers, and in fact, that's the need for cheap labor.
There is no way that many places need such people, and the construction of the railway has separated many people, and the labor remuneration is higher, and at the same time, there is also the opportunity to get the transformation of identity and have the right to vote, which is a point that others cannot compare.
In this way, in the small factories in the city, as well as on the construction sites, they will need more labor, how to get more labor, although the war has brought some labor, but some areas are still extremely stable, stability is not to attract more labor to arrive, although the pay is good, but don't forget. In many places, copper coins were needed in circulation, and the IRA could only give paper money. If there is a stable supply of cheap labor in a region, they will achieve their greatest benefit distribution, which is a very beneficial thing for anyone, and this will greatly satisfy their various needs.
"I see. We will provide more support in this regard, which is not a problem for us. Xun Yu said.
This is indeed an easy thing to do, and more and more peasants in the world have lost their land, which is an important reason for the continuous rebellion of the Yellow Turban Army, and they have no way out, because they have not enough to eat, and they are completely bankrupt. But here the situation is the opposite, there is an extreme shortage of labor, and the problem of food is not a problem at all.
And when those outcasts are created, they will create more trouble for them, and they will become terrible destructive forces. If you look at it as a kind of labor transfer, it solves more troubles. It can be said that at this time, the population is increasing, but it is a kind of trouble and burden, but if people are regarded as a resource, it is extremely beneficial to them, and this is the most favorable situation after all their circumstances have changed, and such things will satisfy them to the greatest extent a favorable result. War is like that.
"It's not a problem, we can provide more labor, but in terms of arms, we need some assistance, you know, our situation is going to get worse." Xun Yu said,
"There is no problem with this, as long as the labor force is sufficient, we absolutely support you, weapons, we have never lacked weapons." The councillor assured. Xun Yu nodded in agreement.
It was a quid pro quo, and Xun Yu provided more labor on behalf of Cao Cao, although most of these laborers were bankrupt peasants, and the people's power was also a symbol of strength, but to a large extent, the situation would have become much more advantageous to them.
In exchange, the legislators will pass a bill that will give Cao Cao more support, for example, military arms resources, loans, etc.
This is the exchange of interests between the two sides, and this can promote a great turn for the better.
Li Jiazhuang, the War Department, for the exchange of interests. Shang Wu is often unaware, and the role of parliamentarians is to pass more bills to balance the interests of all parties.
"The conditions for fighting in the south are still not ripe, and the main problem is still in transportation." Jia Xu said.
"According to the calculations and mapping of experts, it is very difficult to expand the road. Even with a variety of materials, this number is still large, equivalent to the material reserves for waging a war. On top of that, the demand for iron will increase to more places. In some places, steel is needed to achieve such a result. Jia Xu said.
Shang Wu looked at the relevant report in his hand. The only way to expand the volume of road traffic in a short period of time is to use technology to expand it. The expansion of technology requires a lot of materials, and the demand for iron and cement will become very large, and steel is used in special places. As for steel, technology cannot be completely solved, and can only be done manually. This number is extremely terrifying.
"Giving, we have to support this, time is not much for us, there can be changes in the south at any time, if something like this happens, we will miss such an opportunity, we cannot miss this opportunity. That's all I know. Shang Wu said.
