Anderson of Qichang Foreign Bank has been a little upset for the past two days.

Although the contract for the Guangzhou shipyard was signed, the result was not satisfactory, oh, not as Anderson intended. The share distribution ratio is 40% of Tianbao Bank, and 30% of Qichang Foreign Bank and Lihe Foreign Company. Although Tianbaoxing does not have a controlling stake, it is still the largest shareholder, so the position of chairman of the board of directors is still held by Tianbaoxing. But the original plan of the Jews was for him to own 40-50% of the shares, in order to achieve this goal, he promised a lot of favors to do Loew's ideological work, and Lihe Foreign Bank did not want to control or be a major shareholder because of financial strength, so Loew agreed to him.

But when the three parties met together, it was chaotic. After calculation, he and Loew agreed on a capital of 1.5 million taels of silver, but Young Master Liang raised it to two million taels, he and Loew both objected, Loew was originally insufficient, and 1.5 million taels was enough, so Loew's opposition was normal.

The reason for Anderson's opposition is also capital, if the capital is raised, the capital of Qichang Foreign Bank will not be enough to account for 50% of the shares.

This kid is clearly smashing people with silver! So the first tripartite meeting collapsed.

The next day, the conversation continued, and what was surprising was that Loew actually supported Young Master Liang's proposal! Anderson was so angry that he almost lifted his leg and left on the spot, but after all, the Jews love money more than life, reason calmed him down, and finally negotiated such a contract, do you say depressed or not?

The problem is Loew! Oh my God, this seemingly honest guy is not an honest person at all! There must be some behind-the-scenes deal between him and that "wonder boy"!

Although he knew what the problem was, he still pinched his nose and admitted it, because he felt the coldness in Young Master Liang's expression, if he continued to oppose these two people, he might kick him out and abandon him, in order to be able to rely on this project that could make a lot of money, Anderson could only endure the humiliation.

Young Master Liang, of course, did Loew's work. He explained to Loew that the increased capital was to build a larger dockyard and purchase more machinery and equipment, so that the shipbuilding enterprise could have the ability to manufacture ironclad warships, and that the machinery and equipment in this area were promised to be purchased from Prussia, and that was enough! The profit here alone is not small, not to mention that Master Liang also promised that this enterprise could become one of the Prussian warship manufacturing bases in the future, and could provide them with warships slightly higher than the cost price for the Prussian Navy. This means that 55% of the shares of this shipbuilding enterprise are controlled by Young Master Liang.

Then some people may ask, why can't Anderson himself do it alone, so he has to endure the humiliation and be wrapped up with Young Master Liang?

Guangdong was the most open area in the Qing Dynasty in recent years, and Guangzhou was the only foreign trade port in the country before, and the trade between Cantonese and foreigners has been done for hundreds of years, but the people of Guangdong can't tolerate foreigners in their hearts, they don't like foreigners, and the xenophobia is surprisingly serious, and it is almost the most xenophobic area in the Qing Dynasty. The foreigners fought two opium wars in Guangdong, and very few foreigners died at the hands of the Qing government army, and many more died at the hands of the peasant army organized by the people of Guangdong.

If foreigners set up factories in Guangdong alone, they might not even be able to find workers to work for them, so without the local snake of Young Master Liang, Anderson would not be able to open any factories at all.

In the seventh year of Tongzhi, July 1, 1868 in the Western calendar, it is a day that will be remembered by history, and the establishment ceremony and groundbreaking ceremony of the Sino-foreign joint venture Daqing Telegraph Company were held in Hong Kong (in Guangzhou, Young Master Liang did not dare to make such a big fanfare, and he could only quietly enter the city in China, and he did not want to shoot). Master Liang's sworn brother, the British Swire & Co.'s big class Robin was full of red light, the whole ceremony was presided over by him, and the focus of the audience was also him, whether it was invited or spontaneously came over by reporters from all over the world (that is, reporters from all over the Qing Dynasty) all surrounded him, speeches, interviews, photographs, and photos with celebrities such as the Governor of Hong Kong, so busy that Robin felt the pinnacle of life for the first time, which made him deeply intoxicated and didn't want to extricate himself!

Young Master Liang looked around like an outsider, and didn't even want to sit on the rostrum, which made Liang Lao Liu, who was sitting in the middle of a bunch of ghosts, excited and nervous, his English ability was just average, and he couldn't communicate fluently with the ghosts, so he simply sat on the stage seriously and watched Luo Bin, the big nephew, perform, anyway, this Luo Bin is six years older than him, this generation, chaos!

Anderson, who felt badly injured, didn't bother with Loew, and sat alone on the stage as a wooden man, hoping that the damn ceremony would end soon.

"Hi Ronnie! Why are you here? Young Master Liang was suddenly tapped on the shoulder, and then he heard the words, he turned around and found that he was facing a doll-like face: "Hi Alice, it's nice to see you again", the doll is his classmate at Morrison School, the daughter of a Belgian couple.

"Me too, but you haven't answered my question yet, aren't you going back to Guangzhou?" said the doll as he stared at him.

"Oh, did you say this celebration? Because I founded this telegraph company, I took a look" Young Master Liang told the truth, the consequences of cheating female classmates are very serious.

"Cut, I don't believe it! Ronnie, how did you become like this now, you used to be not able to talk big," the doll said unkempt.

Yes, Liang Sihan was very honest in the past, but that honest Liang Sihan went to heaven, and now Liang Sihan is a young man with an uncle's soul. At that time, there were 23 classmates in their class, 10 foreign children, 13 Chinese children, all Chinese children were boys, only 3 foreign children were boys, and the remaining seven were girls. In 1868, foreigners also had a preference for sons over daughters, and generally well-off families would allow boys to be educated in Europe rather than in Hong Kong, an underdeveloped city. Because there is no university in Hong Kong now, and there is no formal middle school, foreigners in Hong Kong can only send their children to this kind of church school, Alice's father runs a foreign company in Hong Kong, so he brought his wife and daughter to live in Hong Kong together.

Looking at the doll's tender face with fluff, he was actually a little moved. The doll is so beautiful, the skin is white and tender, although it is one year younger than him, the height is not shorter than him, the girl develops early, the foreign girl is estimated to be earlier, alas, where do you want to go, Young Master Liang found that his young body seemed to be awakening, and he felt out of control! It seems that the uncle's soul has not known the smell of meat for a long time, and the anger is a bit big! In my previous life, I heard that Lori is the nemesis of my uncle, and this sentence still makes sense.

"Believe it or not, Alice, I have never deceived you, not before, not in the future, really!" Young Master Liang said something inexplicable. The doll seemed to recognize the taste, and the little face suddenly became red, and 1868 was naturally not as open as later generations, and this kind of words were vaguely expressions of love.
