Chapter 559: A Way Out

"Mr. Zhao, since you and Scholar Li are fellow villagers, then you have to worry a lot about this matter."

Seeing that everyone at the scene was talking about Li Hongyu's words, Liu Dahai glanced at an old man with a white beard who was sitting at the same seat, and the old man then opened his mouth and said to Li Hongyu:

"If the imperial court can really recruit us, then it will be a good thing for us, at least we don't have to worry about it in the future, and we won't even be able to sleep."

"Yes, if the government can accept us, we won't have to be chased by the official army anymore."

"I heard that the sailors of Fuzhou are practicing diligently, in case they come to attack Jilong Port, how should we deal with it?"

"If the imperial court can really let us settle down in Chicken Coop Harbor and reduce our taxes for twenty years, it will be a great thing."

"Although Scholar Li is young, he is an auxiliary minister of the imperial court, so he must not have deceived us under his fame!"

"If there is really this day, then we can enter Fuzhou City in the future, and we will no longer have to worry about being arrested by the government."

……

The old man's words immediately resonated with many people at the scene, they are all people with families and businesses, and they are no longer stunned young people who were strong and strong, so they naturally want to live a stable life.

The corners of Li Hongyu's mouth flashed with an imperceptible smile, it seems that the vast majority of people in Jilong Harbor still hope to be recruited by the imperial court, they have spent half their lives laying down today's industry, but they don't want to give it to others, and only by being included in the rule of the Ming Dynasty can they sleep at ease, and they don't have to worry about the outbreak of incidents like Wang Ren.

Of course, not everyone wants to take refuge in the imperial court, and some people don't want to be recruited for one reason or another, so they fell silent at this time, which is why Li Hongyu uses "overwhelming majority".

Li Hongyu can only shake his head helplessly in this situation, the people on Jilong Harbor and Xiaoliuqiu are complex, with all kinds of characters and intricate interest relationships, so it is impossible to keep all the people.

Therefore, Li Hongyu's proposal to be recruited by the imperial court will inevitably lead to a split between the pirates and armed smugglers and maritime merchants on Xiaoliuqiu Island, some of whom will accept the imperial court's recruitment, while the other part will go away to find a new way out.

"Mr. Zhao, the top priority is to rebuild the Chicken Coop Harbor, what do you think should be done?" Seeing that the atmosphere at the scene had become lively, Li Dahai couldn't help but ask Li Hongyu in a deep voice.

Unlike Shi Hu and Onitsuka Saburo and others, Li Dahai "knows" Li Hongyu's origins, and naturally knows that Li Hongyu and Li Dashi are fellow villagers, so they believe what Li Hongyu said more than others, but the first problem to be solved now is reconstruction, and we need to give everyone an idea.

As Li Dahai opened his mouth, the scene gradually quieted down, and people looked at Li Hongyu in unison, waiting for his reply, and now they have to find a way to restore the vitality of Jilong Harbor to its former vitality.

"Joncoop Harbor is everyone's Joncoop Harbor, so we need everyone's collective efforts to rebuild it."

Under the gaze of everyone, Li Hongyu groaned slightly, and then looked at the people at the scene and said loudly:

"But the responsibility and power are equal, it is impossible for everyone to contribute in vain, which is unfair, so I think we can set up a chamber of commerce based on the port, and those who contribute will share the dividends of the port and have the corresponding equity in the chamber of commerce."

"Chamber of Commerce? Equity! Li Hongyu's words suddenly caused a slight commotion in the hall, and then they all looked at Liu Dahai, Shi Hu and Onitsuka Saburo.

The port of Jonlong Port has always been the focus of contention between various forces, and with the port, it controls the goods entering and leaving the port, and then earns dividends from it.

Judging from the current situation, the port of Jilong Harbor is shared by Liu Dahai, Shi Hu and Onitsuka Saburo.

In other words, the port of chicken coop is divided into three parts: eastern, central and western, of which the eastern port is controlled by Shihu, the central port is controlled by Liu Dahai, and the western port is controlled by Onizuka Musashi.

Over time, all the ships that came to Jilong Harbor had reached an agreement with the three forces, and they naturally sailed into their respective port areas to stop their ships.

If you accidentally stop in the wrong place, the consequences can be serious, ranging from losing a sum of money to confiscating the cargo on the ship.

Therefore, Li Hongyu's suggestion actually moved Liu Dahai, Shi Hu and the cheese of the precious Musashi, so everyone naturally had to watch the reaction of Liu Dahai and the three.

Liu Dahai and Shi Hu's brows furrowed slightly, but the port took a lot of effort to fight back, and many brothers were killed and injured because of this, so they naturally didn't want to hand it over subconsciously.

And Onitsuka Saburo only had a wry smile, he didn't know what Sakurako Yamashita thought, and before he came, he specially explained everything to Li Hongyu, which made him have to agree to Li Hongyu's plan even if he was unwilling.

"Mr. Zhao, can you be more detailed?"

Soon after, Liu Dahai asked Li Hongyu about the details of the "Chamber of Commerce" in his mouth under the gaze of everyone, after all, Li Hongyu was the private school Mr. Liu Dahai "invited", so of course he had to break the silence on the scene.

Although Li Hongyu has a life-saving grace for Liu Dahai, but the port is his brothers who have worked hard to get it, he must be responsible for his brothers, if Li Hongyu's statement cannot satisfy him, then he can only refuse, otherwise how to lead his brothers in the future?

This situation also plagued Shi Hu and Onizuka Musashi, on the one hand, because of Li Hongyu's kindness, and on the other hand, because of his affection with his brothers.

"I took a look on the way here just now, the buildings in the town are seriously damaged, the so-called is not broken and not standing, and now that we have suffered this catastrophe, then we might as well take the opportunity to plan the town well and make its layout more reasonable."

Li Hongyu knew that it was impossible to make Liu Dahai and the others make a decision now, so he solemnly explained to everyone, "If Scholar Li can fulfill his previous thoughts about Xiaoliuqiu, then Jilong Port will be everyone's in the future, and with such a chamber of commerce, everyone will have a foothold in the future." ”

"I estimated that if Daming opens overseas trade, then Jilong Port will become an important transit place at that time, and the investment money will be earned back in three years at most."

Saying that, Li Hongyu looked at Liu Dahai, "Haiye, you, Tiger Ye and Mr. Musashi each account for 20% of the equity of the Chamber of Commerce, because you have the most equity, so the president and vice president of the Chamber of Commerce will be elected from the three of you, and the remaining 40% of the equity will be purchased by interested people in Jilong Port and become shareholders of the Chamber of Commerce." ”

"Taking into account everyone's financial resources and interests, the forty percent equity of the Chamber of Commerce will be evenly distributed to those who want to buy, so that everyone has the same number of shares."

Then he looked around at the people who were looking at him with concern and said, "The president of the Chamber of Commerce will be elected by secret ballot by all shareholders, and the person with the largest share of shares among the three people, Haiye, Tiger Ye and Mr. Musashi will become the president, and the remaining two will be the vice presidents. ”

"Mr. Zhao, this seems to be about the same as the number of roads in the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce!"

At this time, a middle-aged man present couldn't help but ask, "May I ask Mr. Zhao, is the operation of the Chamber of Commerce in charge of those 'managers'?" ”

"That's why the president decides who will be the manager at all levels, but the manager must pass the assessment and have the corresponding qualifications, and this is done to ensure the interests of everyone."

Li Hongyu heard a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth, nodded quietly, and then explained loudly to everyone, it seems that the matter of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce has spread to Xiaoliuqiu and has been concerned by some people.

"What is a 'manager'?"

"It's the hired shopkeeper, the words are different but the meaning is similar."

"Mr. Zhao's idea sounds pretty good."

"It's strange, Mr. Zhao is a scholar, how do you know about the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce?"

"You are stupid, Mr. Zhao and Mr. Li are fellow villagers, and I must know a lot about Mr. Li."

"Do you want to buy it?"

"Let's see!"

……

Subsequently, the people at the scene were in a commotion again, and after hearing what Li Hongyu meant, they were talking one after another, this was a great matter for them, and it was related to their vital interests in the future.

However, because they have never been in contact with the operation mode of the Chamber of Commerce mentioned by Li Hongyu, coupled with vigilance, the people at the scene are in a wait-and-see state, and they all want to make choices according to the reactions of others.

"Mr. Zhao, how much is a share?" Soon, a voice came from the crowd, and it seemed that someone was interested in what Li Hongyu said.

In the final analysis, the people who can come here today are all those successful people in Jilong Port, people who belong to the upper class, and they naturally want to live a stable life.

If a large sum of money could be spent to buy a peaceful life, then everyone present would not hesitate to do so, even if they did not think about themselves, for the sake of their children.

For these people, they have accumulated enough wealth in the first half of their lives, they have done everything that should be done, the years have already smoothed out the edges and corners of their bodies, and they have begun to live for their children in the second half of their lives.

After hearing the voice of the question, the noisy scene suddenly fell silent again, and people looked at Li Hongyu curiously, wanting to know the price of each share.

"The total share price of the Chamber of Commerce is one million taels, a total of one hundred shares, one thousand taels each."

Li Hongyu had been prepared for a long time, and after hearing this, he replied in an orderly manner, "Part of this money is used for the reconstruction of the homeland, and the other part is used to rebuild the port." ”

"Ten thousand taels!"

Many people at the scene breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, although 10,000 taels was not a lot, but it was not a sum of money that they couldn't get out.

Li Dahai, Shi Hu, and Onitsuka Saburo suddenly understood, as the largest shareholders of the Chamber of Commerce, they each had to take out 200,000 taels of silver, which was a lot of money.

As Li Hongyu picked out the stock price of the Chamber of Commerce, the people in the lobby whispered about it, for them, it was not whether they could get the money, but whether the money was worth spending.

"I decided to join the Chamber of Commerce, the current situation is extremely unfavorable for us, so we have to plan early, and it will be too late to rush when trouble comes."

In the whispered discussion of everyone, Liu Dahai secretly weighed it in his heart, thinking that the idea proposed by Li Hongyu was the best way to solve the current crisis in Jilong Port, so he stood up and announced loudly.

The sound of the scene suddenly stopped, and everyone looked at Liu Dahai in surprise, and then their eyes fell on Shi Hu and Onitsuka Saburo, wanting to see what attitude the two of them had.
