In late autumn, the weather gets colder and colder. The north wind blew on the face as if it had been scraped by a knife. However, no matter how cold the weather is, it is replaced by the atmosphere of the business alliance meeting.

In the Imperial Hotel, in the No. 1 conference room, business groups, enterprises and company spokespersons from all corners of the world gathered together.

Being invited to the conference is an honor and a symbol for any company. It shows that the enterprise enters the top club, and enters the top club, which cannot directly bring benefits, but can bring various business investment information.

With business investment information, are you still worried that you won't be able to make money?

The participants gathered together, chatted with each other, and waited for the arrival of the general. Everyone knows in their hearts that the generals never treat businessmen badly, and this has been verified over the years.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, Ye Tong walked into the conference room with a few entourage, chatted with the businessmen he knew while walking, and nodded very friendly to those he didn't know.

Actually, it's a show. There is no way, everyone does a show, Ye Tong can't be an exception, he also does a show. It is a pro-people policy that can gain the support of businessmen.

What businessmen pay most attention to must be interests, and it is useless to say more without interests.

Ye Tong walked up to the podium and said simply: "Welcome to this meeting, and I would like to express my gratitude to all of you here!"

Many people think that a general in charge of the imperial army is a bit wrong to hold a business meeting. Hehe! General Ben is really a bit of a good guy. However, General Ben did not interfere in the affairs of the Cabinet, and it was a purely private gathering.

Whether private or official, as long as it is a meeting, there must be an agenda. So, what's on the agenda for this meeting?

Ocean Trade!

Hearing about ocean trade, the presidents of some enterprises probably know a little. However, this ocean trade conference is fundamentally different from the ocean trade you know.

Our target is not those areas near the sea, but those countries far to the west.

To tell the truth, those countries in the West are really rich, too rich! General Ben is ready to lead everyone to the West to make money and earn a lot of gold.

You know? Among the Western countries, there are several empires, all of which are rich empires. Empires such as Rome, Aetra, Rest, and Rahi were all extremely powerful existences.

To make money in those empires, it was necessary not only to have good ships, but also to be escorted by warships. Without the escort of warships, it is estimated that there will not be even bones left when there or on the way.

Ocean trade is very dangerous, but the profits are huge.

General Ben doesn't know the specific situation, let alone what the science and technology of those countries are, and what their strength is.

Since you want to make money, make a lot of money. Then we must set a rule of law, set the rules well, and everyone abide by them. As long as it is a product of foreign trade, a price monopoly must be practiced.

In addition, all products produced will be subject to 30% export tariffs, and import tariffs will be determined accordingly. It is the duty of every citizen to pay taxes according to the law, and we must act according to the rules.

Therefore, General Ben convened such a meeting to prepare for the establishment of an association, which will be called the Chamber of Commerce, and as for what it is called, everyone will study and discuss and decide together. ”

Thunderous applause!

After Ye Tong finished speaking, there was a long applause in the conference room.

A merchant raised his hand and asked, "General, when exactly will the ocean trade begin?" ”

"In three months, General Ben will lead everyone to the West."

Another merchant said, "General, what about the ships?" We don't have any ships on our hands, and we can't transport any amount of products! ”

"Don't worry about this, the Imperial Shipyard began to produce ships a few years ago, and last year, General Ben also arranged for the production of a general-purpose merchant ship that can meet the needs of the Empire's ocean-going trade."

A businessman asked, "General, do you have to pay for naval escorts?" ”

Hehe!

"The Imperial Navy has the duty and duty to escort merchant ships. However, there were not many warships of the Imperial Navy, and it was impossible to escort them all, only a large fleet could be escorted, and some scattered fleets could not escort. Therefore, in the future, when we carry out ocean trade, we must consider centralizing it, so that it will be convenient for the navy to escort the ship. ”

A merchant said, "General, can the various institutional equipment produced by the empire be sold?" ”

That's a good question. At present, all institutional equipment in the empire is not allowed to be sold to the outside world, and this aspect depends on the announcement of the imperial ministry of science and technology. If it is a product that has been available in some countries for a long time, we will definitely be able to sell it, and if it is a product that we do not have, we will definitely not be able to sell it, depending on the specific situation. ”

Imperial patented technology products are very strict, there is no problem with domestic sales, once it involves export sales, there will be a clause restriction immediately.

To put it mildly, Ye Tong just wanted to take a look at Western countries, what level of scientific and technological development has been, and only by figuring out the other party's technical situation can the corresponding policies be formulated.

"That, that general, what products are good in those countries?"

Hehe!

"There's no need to be embarrassed, if you don't ask, General Ben will say it too. In Western countries, there is a large demand for our silk, ceramics, tea and other products. Of course, the development of the product market depends on us to induce. ”

"General, how to decide the sales price of the product?"

"This question cannot be decided for the time being. However, General Ben told everyone that it should be at least ten times the price in the domestic market, and as for how much, it can only be determined after getting those countries. ”

Yes!

Ten times over!

Is it really that high?

That's not a trip to send it!

In fact, ten times what Ye Tong said should be considered low. Those maritime merchants who engaged in offshore trade only went to some islands to trade, and their profits were almost ten times greater.

Of course, now those places are already the territory of the empire, there are no natives, and the natives are sent to civilized schools. Farther afield, the maritime merchants had never been there, but had only heard of it.

A maritime merchant said: "General, our previous merchant ships were a little smaller, and their ability to resist wind and waves was poor, but they can still go." I wonder if the region (country) I went to this time will be able to continue to use that kind of merchant ship? ”

Hehe!

"General Ben has no objection, but one thing to make clear, if the ship is small, you really can't go. Not to mention crossing the Indian Ocean, even if it is the South China Sea, it is estimated that it will be difficult. In fact, some ships are ready to be eliminated, don't be reluctant. In the future, the empire's ocean-going trade will become more and more prosperous, and more and more regions will be reached. ”

After a trip to Europe, we have to take into account the southern part of our Eastern Continent, where there is a Yama culture, and I really don't know what the situation is now.

Of course, the southern region is mainly produced by rubber and minerals. As long as the products are moved to those areas, a large number of resource products will be earned.

Next, things are much easier, elect the president of the chamber of commerce, name the name of the chamber of commerce, formulate relevant rules and regulations, determine the enterprise, and the annual fee that needs to be paid every year.

"Well, that's the end of the meeting. General Ben is waiting for everyone to organize the product as much as possible in the next three months. Since we want to do it, we must make it bigger and stronger, and we can't make small fights. ”

After the meeting, Ye Tong returned to the house and told Yu Ji some things, mainly to ask her to prepare products. Especially ceramics, tea, silk, cloth, perfumes, clothes, medicines, etc.

There are several main medicines, one is yellow ammonium, the other is a panacea (the main medicine is poppy, you know), and then there is the trauma potion. Other medical supplies are basically not sold to the outside world, and can only be sold in China.

Dingjun Mountain's strongest institutional products cannot be sold, and can only sell some agricultural products and textiles. Of course, rum can be sold, anyway, foreigners like it.

The next day, Ye Tong arrived at the military pavilion to study the western expedition with Zhang Liang, and informed Jiang Song and Fan Zeng in time.

"Ofan, Han Xin's army has completed the southern expedition, and you can consider going home."

"My lord, you still have to leave tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to garrison that place, after all, there is a powerful country very close to there."

Ye Tong nodded in agreement, the country he said was actually a poison, that is, a third brother. Although the technology is backward and the people are very scum, it has always been a densely populated area.

"Alright! Fifty thousand soldiers and horses were left behind. However, tell Han Xin to let him help select 10,000 soldiers and horses, adapt to the sea water at the Star Island base first, and go to Western countries with General Ben three months later. ”

"Yes!"

Han Xin's southern expedition, after a year and a half, completely controlled the southern region and brought those natives into the imperial administration.

For those natives, it is really good to get into a civilized school. The key is to have food, not to go hungry, there is no danger, at most to do some work. So what does it matter? If you want to eat, you must have to work, and you can't rely on others to support you for nothing!

The Southern Expedition, from the strong resistance at the beginning, to the later desperately drilled into the Qin army, for fear that the Qin army would not want to. Therefore, later, Han Xin's army basically took over and informed the natives of various regions that the Qin army was coming to rescue them.

As soon as they heard that the Qin army was coming, those natives would immediately flock to it.

Of course, there are still some natives who don't open their eyes and resist to the end. For that kind of natives, the policy of the Qin army was to fight to the death.

Relatively speaking, the situation of Zhou Yu's Marine Corps is better, after all, there are really few people on those islands, and they are basically empty islands.

But what?

After Zhou Yu's Marines arrived on the islands opposite Star Island, those areas had a large population. Although they are indigenous, they are not the same as indigenous!

The natives Zhou Yu met were a group of natives who were lazy and just wanted to eat well and didn't want to work. For that type of native, the Qin army gave the most severe education.

After arriving in the Southern Continent, Zhou Yu's marines were in big trouble, and the place was too big to run away.

After receiving Ye Tong's suggestion, Zhou Yu immediately arranged for warships to send tens of thousands of war horses to the Southern Continent, and the marines were transformed into commandos.

However, after Ye Tong got the news, he immediately sent 10,000 infantry to the Southern Continent to replace the 10,000 marines. Just kidding, the Marines are carefully selected, how can they be used as assault cavalry.
