Chapter 260: The Fish Takes the Bait



c_t; "This ......"

Tian Xiali sighed slightly, and said: "Mr. Jianzhi, we in the United States are different from Germany, as the government, we advocate a free market economy, and the government has never interfered in the production and investment of enterprises, I can only promise you to match you and assist you in introducing some enterprises, but as for whether they will stay, in what way, they will invest in Mukden, open mines and set up factories, I can't interfere with this, please understand." ”

Zhang Yi smiled slightly and said: "Mr. Minister, when I was a child, I used to travel around the Western hunting countries, and I have some understanding of the political system and national conditions of the United States. I only hope that you will be able to exert your influence in the United States, and you will be able to introduce us to Mukden and invite you to come to Mukden for a business visit, but I know that you have tremendous power in the U.S. Congress and the business community, and you will undoubtedly do a good job of that. ”

Tian Xiali's face showed a slight smug look, and said with a smile: "Mr. Jianzhi has a good reputation, I will do my best to serve you." ”

Zhang Yi waved his hand to the guards behind him and said, "Go, bring the gift I prepared for Mr. Minister." ”

The guard turned around and went down, and after a short time, he brought up a beautiful wooden square box and handed it to Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi said: "Mr. Minister, thank you for being able to come to Mukden this time, this is a small gift I have prepared for you. According to the legend, you are very fond of Chinese culture and are quite proficient in Chinese art, and this is a gift that I sent to collect for Mr. Minister. ”

As he spoke, Zhang Yi opened the gift box, and presented a beautiful gift in front of Tian Xiali, Zhang Yi said with a smile: "Mr. Minister, this is the most famous blue and white porcelain in the pre-Ming Dynasty, shepherd wine bottle, please smile." ”

Tian Xiali opened his eyes wide and looked at the blue and white in front of him. "Oh God, it's so beautiful, Mr. Kenyuki, you're so kind, I love your gift very much, God." This is the blue and white treasure I have been waiting for for a long time! ”

Zhang Yi smiled: "Mr. Minister, these days. Due to my busy official business, more time will let Shaochuan accompany you in Fengtian to investigate, visit everywhere, and see the scenery of our Fengtian today, I think today's investment environment must be what the entrepreneurs of your country yearn for, I hope that these days, Mr. Minister can spend a happy time. ”

Tian Xiali smiled slightly: "Mr. Jianzhi, compared to the inspection, I actually pay more attention to. I hope that Fengtian can let my goods enter Fengtian and open the market in Fengtian, which I am very much looking forward to, and I have to say that I am very dissatisfied with your country's closed national policy, if your country continues to be not in line with the international market. It has been outside the world, more than ten years later, China will be even more backward with the world, only by communicating with each other, can we both share the benefits and close the country. There is no benefit at all. ”

Zhang Yi looked up to the sky and smiled, and said: "Mr. Minister, what you said is quite reasonable, of course, I am only a Fengtian general now, and I have no ability to intervene in China's national policy. I can only guarantee that in the future, Mukden, and even the three eastern provinces will be open to the Americans, and of course, other friendly countries. It's just that you also know that our country is now lagging behind, and if your country's goods enter Mukden on a large scale, it will have a huge impact on our country's economy, and we must protect the interests of our local enterprises or people from being harmed. ”

"Oh?"

Tian Xiali's eyes lit up, and he was quite moved by what Zhang Yi said, and was about to continue to answer.

Zhang Yi said: "Mr. Minister, you have come from afar, I have prepared a sumptuous banquet for you to receive you, in the next few days, you can have a good time in Fengtian, any needs you put forward, the General's Mansion will do its best to meet you, as for the topic just now, we can delay it for two days, and then continue, what do you think?" ”

Zhang Yi "slyly" brought the topic over and began to prepare a banquet to entertain Tian Xiali and his party.

In the next five days, Tian Xiali, accompanied by Tang Shaoyi and Liang Dunyan, conducted a detailed business inspection of Fengtian.

Tian Xiali looked at the increasingly prosperous Fengtian, and marveled again and again, today's Fengtian is full of factories that have started construction, and businessmen from Shanxi, Zhili, and even Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Huguang have come here to take root and start a huge construction.

In less than a year, the population of Shengjing has doubled, from 800,000 to 1.5 million, becoming one of the few prosperous cities in the Qing Dynasty.

Tang Shaoyi also explained to Tian Xiali Fengtian's current policy of benefiting the people and the preferential policies for industry and commerce, Tian Xiali was shocked in his heart, this Shengjing general is too powerful, he can make such a huge change in Fengtian in just a few months, incredible, incredible.

Tang Shaoyi said to Tian Xiali: "Mr. Minister, what our general said is right, in the next three years, the population of our Fengtian will definitely exceed 20 million people, industry and commerce will prosper, and it will become a rich province comparable to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and the market potential is huge. Also, this oil field of the Liaohe River definitely exists, think about the coal and steel complex, at that time Jianzhi was selling to various countries, no one was interested, and the result was picked up by the Germans, next year, the coal and steel industry is fully completed, and every year it will produce millions of tons of high-quality coal, hundreds of thousands of tons of high-quality steel, hundreds of thousands of tons of iron, what a huge benefit it will be, in the future these will grow exponentially, it will bring huge benefits to Fengtian and even Germany! ”

Tian Xiali swallowed a mouthful of foam with difficulty and said, "Shaochuan, you are wrong in this matter. Why didn't you introduce this coal and steel complex to me at the beginning, so cheap to the Germans, our Americans are definitely no worse than the Germans in terms of technology and capital, and we will provide more favorable conditions! ”

Tang Shaoyi smiled helplessly and replied: "My dear Mr. Minister, when our general was selling the coal and steel complex, I was still a staff member in Jiangsu, and I had not yet come to the general's side, and I had no idea about such a situation, how could I provide you with such news." Now I, as the general's most trusted subordinate, saw this Liaohe oil field, and I just introduced it to you as soon as possible, you must know that this news has not yet reached the ears of the Germans, if the Germans know about it, with the greed of the Germans, I think, the Liaohe oil field will probably also be included in the German bag, and will not leave you with half a point! ”

"Dream! We will never allow the Germans to meddle in this matter! Tian Xiali's face was hideous, and he said viciously. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
