Chapter 223: Economic Strategy

Now that Shi Bin has mastered Jinghu South Road, his strength has soared, and all the people close to him are very happy, even Jia Rudao also sent Erzhuang to verify the situation, because this is tantamount to setting up the pacification envoy of Jinghu South Road, and there will inevitably be some conflicts, but if it is handled well and a tacit understanding is reached, it will be fine, and the benefits will definitely outweigh the disadvantages.

The matter of the surrender has become a fact, and the pacification of Jinghu South Road can only look at it if he doesn't want to tear his face. In order to make him not hold a grudge against himself, Shi Bin, who understood that he was powerful, wrote a detailed letter to his family on the day Er Zhuang came, explaining the causes and consequences of the five state governors' actions. Inevitably, there was an accident, so he asked Er Zhuang to return to Ezhou with a letter from home that night, and asked Jia Rudao to help him deal with the rest of the problems.

Within two months of the good times, bad news came one after another: businessmen in Quanzhou withdrew their investment, merchants in Yuezhou closed their shops, and most of Shaozhou businessmen moved away... Almost all of these five states have experienced relatively serious economic problems.

How so? In Shi Bin's view, these five states are just missing some people and businessmen, so there should be no big deal, why did the businessmen withdraw and relocate?

But Shi Bin didn't care very much, in his opinion, there were no businessmen before, and ordinary people couldn't live on their own sufficiency? The kind of small villages with almost no traders seem to be everywhere.

This fully shows that there are no businessmen, everyone can still live, and this kind of official document does not have to be sent to him at all, and it is purely a waste of his time to send it. Since he had such an idea, of course, Shi Bin just glanced at it in a hurry, and after reading it, he didn't care about it anymore, and still focused his work on how to develop the four prefectures of Ding, Tan, Heng, and Dao as soon as possible.

After dragging on for three or four days, Wang San saw that Shi Bin had not yet approved the official document, so he finally couldn't help but come to inquire about the situation. He didn't think that Shi Bin would slack off so much that he didn't read this official document, but he should not realize the seriousness of the situation at all.

So when I came to see Shi Bin, my attitude was very soft, and when I entered the door, I said, "Big brother, I'm very tired these two days!" ”

Seeing that Wang San was coming, Shi Bin was of course happy and quite good at talking, Shi Bin was even more happy, and hurriedly put down the reward in his hand and replied: "It's okay, it's okay, it's not to thank you and Li Chao, let the eldest brother and I have more territory in the five states, although the impact is not very big." But with the territory, you have confidence, no matter how tired it is, it's worth it! ”

There is not much time, so Wang San naturally won't say any more kind words, "Brother came today to ask about something." ”

"What's the matter? Brother, please speak. ”

"It's the few documents I sent a few days ago about the economic problems of the five states of New Na, junior brother." Wang San reminded.

Documents on the economic problems of the five states?

As soon as Wang San said this, Shi Bin understood why he came. But Shi Bin still didn't care, and said with a leisurely smile: "Brother Xian really does his best to make my eldest brother ashamed, but why do you let you come to me in person for such a trivial matter?" It's just that the businessmen of those state capitals are just making a fuss, and now where are the businessmen not making such a fuss a few times a year? Big brother, I remember that there was a place where businessmen made trouble seven times a year, and then they all came back? ”

"A trifle? Hey, big brother, why do you think that? Wang San completely understood what Shi Bin was thinking this time, and he didn't put this matter at ease, so he said anxiously: "Before the five states went into service, we could wantonly plunder their population and economic resources, but now that they have served the eldest brother, then we have to be responsible for them." The younger brother is not to blame the eldest brother, it seems that the eldest brother does not realize the role of this businessman in the development of the region. ”

Shi Bin admitted that Wang San's words were right, but he

But it was not pleasant, not because Wang San's words were too straightforward, but because Wang San said that he 'did not realize the role of businessmen in the development of the region'.

He, a person who came from a commercial society, would not understand the important role of businessmen in the development of the region? It's ridiculous!

Now, it doesn't matter if it's just because I can't manage it, I can only put it aside for the time being and let it fend for itself. Besides, with their own intelligence organizations and agreements with those prefectures, the situation in the five prefectures is not much worse, so it can be ignored for the time being.

Perhaps because he regarded Shi Bin as a native hat who didn't know the economy at all, Wang San began to educate him on the basics of business. Although there is no systematic theory, I still came up with a few typical cases, so I didn't stop talking for a quarter of an hour.

At first, Shi Bin could tolerate it, after all, it was for his good, and it was his brother's heartfelt words. However, Wang San seemed to get more and more energetic the more he spoke, and in the end, Shi Bin couldn't bear it anymore and shouted: "Enough!" Do you still want to say it after saying it for so long? When I really don't understand this? It is nothing more than that as soon as the businessmen leave, the economy will regress and return to the era of pure agriculture, without which it will be much more difficult to develop? ”

Wang San, who was stopped drinking, didn't come back to his senses for a long time, he hadn't been so angry since he met Shi Bin, and this time the fire came very abruptly and big. Knowing that he looked down on Shi Bin, Wang San, who was worried in his heart, had no choice but to stop making a noise and wait for Shi Bin to speak.

understood that he had just done it, but Shi Bin didn't want to apologize, so he had to change his way, "Brother Xian, I already knew this, but even if I knew this, it was useless, it was difficult for a good woman to cook without rice." It's just out of sight and out of mind, so I didn't approve it. ”

I don't think Shi Bin is prevaricating, but Wang San doesn't want to dwell on this issue, because he is here to solve the economic problems of the five states, not to discuss with Shi Bin whether he has the ability to solve this problem.

"Big brother, I believe your words, at this time, we haven't found a suitable way to solve this economic problem, and this problem should not be so easy to solve, but you can't help but make an approval, at least you have to approve a 'pending discussion' or 'detailed investigation'."

Being so little bit by Wang San, he always understood what he was wrong, so he simply put down his body and asked: "I didn't do a good job for my brother, so what should I do if my brother helps?" What if I just approved the 'deliberations'? ”

"Won't I come to discuss with my eldest brother, junior brother?" Wang San said with a smile.

"Okay, what do you think you should do? Anyway, I won't agree to drive the businessmen who have already invested in us back to their hometowns, don't even think about it! Shi Bin said categorically.

As if looking at a child holding a toy and not letting go, Wang San smiled and said: "Big brother is too nervous, I didn't say that I wanted to drive these businessmen away, even if you drove me away, I wouldn't agree." ”

I'm here, and I'm just going to be in the city, what else can I do? This can make Shi Bin unhappy.

Because it will cost a lot of money to maintain the economic market of the five states, how can we develop the economy when the people are gone? It's no wonder that businessmen don't run. Everyone who can do business is a human being, and there are no fools. So you have to come up with something that appeals enough to them to keep them there.

Is it possible to subsidize businessmen? Although he Shi Bin is a little more prosperous now, his territory is also much larger, but he is actually still a poor household, so subsidies are impossible.

While he was thinking wildly, Wang San suddenly said excitedly, "Let's try to ask President Deng for their help?" ”

If you give some benefits, such as a free guarantee for one month's goods, President Deng will definitely help, and he should go to at least one state to open a store, but this is too much of a loss, and his Shi Bin's soldiers are used to fight wars, and they can't all be used as dart masters.

Handy

There are only so many resources, and it is impossible to turn the focus of development out, let alone ignore it, so we must think of a good way.

"Why don't we encourage more people to do business?" Shi Bin said tentatively.

"Unlikely," Wang San shook his head, "If before the invasion of the Yuan people, there were many people who were still vendors when they went out to do errands, and now in troubled times, who would dare to do business without force protection?" Either they are big merchants who have their own thugs, guards, and can afford to hire a dart master, or they have shops in the city, and they are not afraid of accidents if they are protected by the city army. ”

Indeed, isn't your own army just a dart master for those big businessmen? Helped them clear the water bandits of Dongting Lake? And there are refugees everywhere outside the city, and if they are hungry, no one cares about anything, and the righteousness of the master is naturally robbing, and there will definitely be no one to be a small foot trader.

It's no good that big businessmen don't want to go, and small businessmen don't dare to go, so does it really make those five states completely agricultural states?

Suddenly there was a horse neighing outside the window, it was Shi Bin's favorite jujube red horse, fat and strong, strong limbs, full of endurance, and human nature, he regarded it as a brother.

I thought something was wrong, but when I looked closely, it turned out that this naughty guy was teasing a mare: the estrus period had arrived.

Horse?

Thinking of this, Shi Bin felt that he had grasped something, and at this time Wang San opened his mouth and asked, "Big brother, is your baby calling?" The little brother estimated that he should be barking at a mare, hehe! I remember that it was smuggled back from the north by Zhao Gang with great difficulty. ”

The word 'smuggling' came into his ears, and Shi Bin immediately knew what he was thinking just now, and nodded with a slow smile.

Seeing Shi Bin smiling and nodding like this, Wang San was very happy, because Shi Bin was no longer sad. It's not surprising, but it makes him wonder after a long time. It's enough to agree with his opinion twice, where is there non-stop?

It didn't take long for Shi Bin to wake up and understand that his behavior just now must have puzzled Wang San, and immediately explained: "Brother Xian, I want to thank you for reminding me, the word 'smuggling' is said well." ”

These brainless words made Wang San a little confused, and immediately expressed his incomprehension.

"Isn't smuggling a business? It's just secretly. Of course we have to come secretly to do this with the Yuan people, if we do this with our own people, we should be able to come openly, right? Hahaha! ”

It turned out that Shi Bin wanted to do business by himself, and Wang San also agreed with his idea very much, it was better to ask for others than to ask for himself, and ask President Deng for their help, it was better to be his own boss.

"Then what is the big brother going to do? There must always be a framework, but you still can't come nonsense, so as not to lose your wife and lose your soldiers. ”

"I'm going to spend 50,000 to 80,000 taels of silver to do business, and let Sai Xi Shi be the boss, although she is a woman, she is very shrewd, and she is not conspicuous, and she is the best fit to manage my business." Shi Bin said with certainty.

I thought that Jia Ling would be in charge of doing business, but I didn't expect it to be Sai Xishi, which made Wang San a little surprised and worried. However, Shi Bin's words are also correct, Jia Ling's identity is too sensitive and her personality is too domineering to be suitable for business; Although Sai Xishi is also a little domineering, his identity is not sensitive, and he is very good at planning, and Shi Bin's wife can definitely be trusted, which is indeed the most suitable.

"Big brother's words are very correct, but please handle the relationship well." Wang San said very sincerely.

Understanding what this meant by 'handling the relationship well', Shi Bin nodded to Wang San gratefully, saying that he would definitely deal with these problems, "Brother Xian, please rest assured, I will discuss it with everyone before taking action." ”

Now that the matter has been settled, Wang San will no longer stay and go back to do his business. (https:)
