Chapter 583: Company
Li Shenming responded with a smile, knowing that the staff officer presided over by Sun Yao was calm, although it was impossible to send someone to draw in person at this time, it was expected to be confirmed by many parties, rubbing the most credible version, this is just a small matter, he smiled and nodded, it can be regarded as thanking Sun Yao and inheriting this little favor.

Zhang Han ignored what everyone said, he just waited for everyone's emotions to be mobilized, and when he saw that it was almost over, he smiled and stretched out his hand and pressed it in mid-air.
As if there was a switch, the room was silent again.
"A group, the most afraid of no big policy and purpose, our purpose used to be to make money together, now we are thinking about restoring the homeland of our ancestors, these places, since the Tang Dynasty, some returned to the Hugues, some returned to Tibet, and then the Khitan rose, and then it is now the Beiyu, you sing and I appear, anyway, there is nothing wrong with our Han people, are we really inferior to our ancestors? Set the policy, whether it is a rush or a slow plan, there will always be a day when this thing will be done. ”
Speaking of this, Zhang Han glanced at Li Shenming, Li Shenming understood, stood up and shook his head, and said with a smile: "Under Li Shenming, some people recognize me, and some people don't, so I will give you a salute first." ”
There was a low laugh in the room, and everyone returned the salute with their fists clasped together.
Li Shenming continued: "I know that there are a lot of speculations and discussions, first of all, I am afraid that the chambers of commerce in various places are going to be canceled. ”
There was an uproar!
Li Shenming said quietly: "Previously, we and Yusheng wanted to take the trade route, whether it was trade with the Beiyu or in the Ming Dynasty, there must always be someone to help, now our situation is different from usual, just business is good to say, if the land laid down is to let go of the hands to reclaim millions of acres of land, even if many places are used for grazing, the benefits are not small." There is also a large number of copper ore found, it is also a good place to mine, do not hide from you, the Chamber of Commerce and I and Yusheng to do business, but also Zhang does not want to compete with the local profits, everyone together to make a fortune is stronger than fighting each other, but this northern place is I and Yusheng soldiers fought bloodily to get it, if we don't let this benefit to everyone, it will inevitably make everyone red, saying that I and Yusheng have only a lot of profits, if you let it out in vain, what is the reason? ”
Li Shenming said later, his tone was not very polite, after all, he said what many directors of the chambers of commerce said, if he said it politely, these guys in front of him are the masters of boiling oil in the stones, and they will definitely follow, these people are skinless and faceless, only by speaking first, and you are not polite, so as to suppress the careful thinking of these businessmen.
Li Dayong and the others glanced at each other, knowing that today's drama was coming, and under the instigation of their eyes, a commentator of the Tianchengwei Chamber of Commerce stood up and said, "Then is Lord Zhang going to dissolve the Chamber of Commerce now?" We also knew that many of the minority shareholders withdrew their shares during the last turmoil, which disappointed the adults, but we still stayed. In addition, when the army went north, we also assisted in the local area, and we also helped a lot with things such as hiring people. ”
Sun Jingting stood up and said unceremoniously: "You and the military supplies are compensated to the Chamber of Commerce according to the price, and the situation at that time is that the army does not go north, where can you continue to smuggle business, and the money you invested is not going to be wasted?" One is one, two is two, everyone has made a lot of money in the smuggling business, who can't look at this silver? The adult was impeached by Wang Xinyi a few more times, and the general soldiers of the Xuanfu and others were involved, and there were many Jin merchants in the middle to make it bad, if it wasn't for the lucrative business, how could they risk offending the adult to do such a thing? In the past two years, how much dividends have been paid by each person after they have become shareholders, and they don't count it in their hearts? ”
The commentator sat down speechlessly, and many people in the chamber of commerce looked at each other, they thought of such a thing, but they didn't expect that Zhang Han had just spread his ambitions, and he immediately turned his face.
Li Dayong couldn't bear it, stood up and said: "Mr. Sun means that I can use it when I need to wait, and now he has a big business with the Yusheng family, since I don't need to wait, just kick it away?" Isn't this a pot to make a pot for the night? ”
Sun Jingting stared at Li Dayong, Li Dayong was familiar with him, and he watched him grow up since he was a child, but it was rare to see Sun Jingting look at people like this, in his memory, Sun Jingting had always been gentle and elegant, even if he was good at martial arts, he never bullied others, and at this time, he was stared at by his eyes, and his body was cold, and there was an indescribable sense of fear.
"What proprietor Li said is too ugly, I only think you are angry for a while." Sun Jingting glanced at Li Dayong, and saw that the other party did not continue to say something more ugly, so he continued: "I don't talk about who makes whom, and you don't come in for nothing to join the Chamber of Commerce, and the bonus in the past few years has not been less than a penny for each person." In the past few months, because of the war, and because Dongyu is not very out of stock, so the trade has shrunk a lot, and everyone usually has a lot of strange words, just make money, and complain if you don't make it, there is such a reason? Besides, everyone in the Chamber of Commerce is doing things, they are trying to put their own goods out more, and the profits are also higher, even if there is a shortage of catties or poor clothing and fabrics, they also stuff the goods into the truck, and Yusheng has been blamed by Dongyu many times, if we check carefully, I am afraid that the proprietor of the Chamber of Commerce has few people who can get out of it, for the sake of the overall situation, we adults have been endured. We don't say these things just because we don't want to tear our faces, not because we don't know. ”
"What Mr. Sun said is actually reasonable." Ma Huaxian stood up and said, "It's just that I want to follow Master Zhang down, and once we disband, we are really uncomfortable." ”
"That's the case." Ma Chaoren, Zhang Yanhong, Jiang Dalin and others also stood up, and most of the directors of the chambers of commerce in other places also stood up, and everyone said: "We are also famous in the local area, and there are not many goods left recently, and everyone has not said anything, and occasionally there are strange things, and they are also blamed by us." If the quality of the goods is not good, we should also learn from Yusheng, establish a good system, carefully inspect, and never have such a thing again. ”
When Ma Chaoren spoke, his eyes kept looking at Zhang Han, and he was also a little resentful in his heart, but his intuition was not so simple, because of the past few years of getting along, Ma Chaoren had some understanding of Zhang Han, if it was really just the dissolution of the Chamber of Commerce, Zhang Han would not have said those words just now, and there was no need to gather everyone to the grassland.
"What the proprietor said is very good." Zhang Han really had a smile on his face, and he answered: "As long as there are rules in everything, you are not afraid, you are afraid of not following the rules." After all, the Chamber of Commerce is a loose alliance, and there are rules, but if you don't follow the rules, how to punish and who will punish it, this is a little difficult to do. Now my idea is that here in the north, we and Yusheng will have a bigger foundation, and the soldiers will be counted as a share of the Chamber of Commerce for nothing, which is not very reasonable, and the Chamber of Commerce is not very suitable for use on the grassland, and I think everyone understands the reason. ”
Ma Chaoren nodded slightly, and even Li Dayong knew it in his heart.
The Chamber of Commerce is useful in the inner town because everyone is the head snake of the land, Zhang Han gave away some interests, everyone helped Yusheng to do things, and took some bonuses, which is mutually beneficial, and Yusheng laid down the grassland land, the head snake here is the Beiyu, only a few Han businessmen have established the Qingcheng Chamber of Commerce, and it is not very useful, but Zhang Han gave the help of the Han merchants in the grassland, so that they did not deviate from Germany.
However, there were few representatives of the Han merchants in Qingcheng, and their attitudes were peaceful, and they did not look as angry as those in the mainland chamber of commerce.
Zhang Han said: "The grassland will be reclaimed in the future, within a few years, at least one million acres of land will be opened, except for a few grain fields, most of the land is used to grow cotton, Li Zhuang there, more spinning machines, weaving and selling, I northerners actually need cotton cloth more than southerners, but cotton spinning is the most prosperous in the south of the Yangtze River, which makes no sense." Now that the north-south canal has been opened, a large number of looms can be driven by water power, together with mining, planting, grazing, and building military platforms on the grassland, we need a large number of people and craftsmen, which is no longer something that the chamber of commerce can handle separately. This is a great cause, but also the only way to restore the glory of the Han and Tang Dynasties, there is money, you can raise soldiers, and there are soldiers, you can lay a larger territory. With our current idea, it is to abolish the Chamber of Commerce and establish a company! ”
Zhang Han's words were quick and categorical, making people feel the determination in his words and making people doubt his determination.
Li Dayong felt a little dizzy, he felt the determination in Zhang Han's words, but he didn't fully understand Zhang Han's intentions, and then looked at Ma Huaxian and the others, they also had the same expression.
Ma Chaoren's reaction was the fastest, and he was the first to speak: "Zi said: The public, the wealth of several people, the secretary, the meaning of transfer." Zhuangzi Youyun: Accumulating disadvantages is high, combining small is big, and merging is the way of public, which is called a company. May I ask my lord, is this the intention of this company? And before we had a chamber of commerce, a commercial house, what is the difference between this company and the two? ”
Zhang Han glanced at Ma Chaoren with appreciation, he turned the commercial houses and chambers of commerce into companies, of course, to carry out large-scale company operations, this year, the reason why the West had a Renaissance, everything was ahead of all civilizations in the world, and there was the Age of Discovery and early industrialization, the competition between feudal lords and the prosperity of commerce in small countries, and finally from various guilds to large-scale companies, commercialization made the banking industry flourish, investment into the field of scientific research, and then transformed into industrial and military power, Now Britain does not know if there is an East India Company, and if not, it will soon be established, and the Dutch East India Company is like the hegemon of Southeast Asia, constantly delivering benefits to the homeland, and also creating a large group of super-rich.
What the Dutch East India Company could do, Zhang Han could certainly do, and it was certainly better than what they did.
