Chapter Seventy-Five: Reorganization

The first update is here!

Thank you again for the ambiguity with you 12, the first helmsman of this book was born!

――――

On the second day, Xia Jun talked in detail with Tao Chengzhang and Liu Yazi, and both agreed to merge the two sides, and on the third day, Xia Jun convened high-level personnel of the Han People's Party, announced the merger of the Han People's Party and the Guangfuhui, and announced the reorganization of the Han People's Party.

The Han People's Party was renamed the 'Renaissance Party', and the core banner of the Ba'ath Party was 'Recovering China - Rejuvenating the Nation', which was tantamount to combining the will of the Liberation Party and the Han People's Party.

After the reorganization of the Renaissance Party, Xia Jun served as the chairman of the Renaissance Party, Tao Chengzhang served as the vice chairman of the Renaissance Party, You Zhengbin, Liu Yazi, Lin Debao, and Li Shijing served as members of the Renaissance Party Central Committee, and more than ten people including Wu Feng, Yang Lie, and Zhang Jiyu (four dogs) were ordinary members, and then there were ordinary party members.

The reorganized Baath Party is more professional and well-organized.

In fact, no matter how the Baath Party is reorganized, as long as Xia Jun has military power in his hands, then he is the boss, and everyone else has to obey his command.

Tao Chengzhang and Liu Yazi have no ability to lead troops, they don't pose any threat to Xia Jun, if they dare to jump around, Xia Jun can use thunder to eliminate internal hidden dangers as soon as possible.

This reshuffle is tantamount to swallowing the Liberation Society along with the belt bones.

At the same time, the party also set up a Ministry of Justice, a Liaison Department, a Finance Department, and a Propaganda Department.

Tao Chengzhang was the head of the Liaison Department, responsible for liaising with revolutionaries and various intelligence work, and Liu Yazi was the deputy director of the Liaison Department.

The Propaganda Department is headed by Liu Yazi and You Zhengbin is the vice president.

The Ministry of Justice is headed by You Zhengbin, the Ministry of Finance is headed by Li Shijing, and Xia Jun's finances have always been handed over to his wife.

The Liberation Society and the Han People's Party jointly formed the Baath Party, so that Xia Jun would soon have a large number of people. Tao Chengzhang consciously took out the 500,000 silver dollars given to him by Xia Jun and used them as public funds.

Tao Chengzhang and Liu Yazi returned to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to contact members to come to Jian'an according to Xia Jun's instructions, and at the same time, Xia Jun began to infiltrate Jiangsu and Zhejiang in a planned way.

The main area is Shanghai.

During the Republic of China, Shanghai was claimed to have enough income from opium alone to feed three divisions, and it has always been a coveted territory for warlords.

The Shanghai Manufacturing Bureau, as well as the Shanghai Vault, are all targets to be seized by Xia Jun after the uprising. However, for the sake of secrecy, the Liberation Society still existed under its original name, but only as a subordinate organ of the Ba'ath Party.

……

After Tao Chengzhang and Liu Yazi returned to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, many members of the Liberation Society came to Fujian that month, and the scale of Xia Jun's school expanded rapidly.

At this time, Xia Jun's fiscal revenue has grown rapidly, firstly, because of the establishment of the tariff system, a lot of tariffs can be collected every month, and at the same time, the tax bureau began to collect turnover tax, which also increased the fiscal revenue.

Turnover tax is to collect goods value-added tax, business tax and other taxes, turnover tax is not directly collected from everyone, but indirectly taxed.

For example, the cost price of a pack of cigarettes is only five cents, and the political axe charges a tax of four yuan and seven, and the retail price soars to five or six yuan. However, Xia Jun's turnover tax is not heavy, and it is only 5% for general goods.

At present, the tax revenue is still a small share, and the large share is still in the industrial aspect, and the variety of goods exported by Xia Jun to the United States has tripled.

Xia Jun's cigarette factory has tripled, the number of sanitary napkins manufactured has increased fivefold, the lighter factory has also tripled, and the steel mill is making steel from imported iron ore every day, which is then produced into various products to be sold at home and abroad.

Those private industries are not inferior, because Xia Jun gave them technology and equipment support, so that the export of products increased by dozens of kinds.

As far as the market in Fujian province is concerned, Xia Jun has already ceded the market for cotton cloth and paper, while the goods of the textile and paper mill he opened are sold abroad.

Tea, furniture, timber, matches, small hardware, ironware and other commodities all have the existence of private industries, and their products have advantages over foreign goods in terms of competitiveness.

These advantages come from the fact that after Xia Jun started smuggling, Xia Jun helped them export without collecting any tax, although it was only a temporary surname and did not collect export tax.

At the same time, Xia Jun's transportation company has a Yankee license, so after transporting the goods to other ports in China, the tariffs are also very favorable.

In terms of labor costs, Fujian's labor costs are obviously much lower than those of the powers, so the products contain a demographic dividend.

In terms of quality, it is similar to that of foreign goods, because they use similar production equipment to foreign goods, but because the workers are not very skilled, the quality of some goods is not as good as that of foreign goods.

In addition to selling goods to the United States, Xia Jun also began to try to sell goods to Europe, and the market proved to be good.

And his partners have also set up factories one after another, the production lines of these factories are much worse than the equipment used in the factories opened by Xia Jun, plus Xia Jun has a demographic dividend, and dealers have a competitive advantage compared with those joint stock companies, which makes Xia Jun's monthly income soar.

Xia Jun has always been in the layout of foreign trade, and the smuggling in Ningde Port has obviously been targeted by the customs recently, and it may not be a problem to continue to use the license plate of the Yankees.

Chen Jiayi has recently registered transportation companies in various European countries, and has also acquired two shell companies, and has obtained a lot of licenses.

After a while, let the cargo ship hang some license plates of any country, and repaint the cargo ship after leaving the port a few times, and the brush is different from before.

Due to the expansion of the trade volume, Xia Jun exchanged another 10,000-ton cargo ships, and the Germans' transportation at sea has almost caught up with the British in these years, and the transportation service in Germany is obviously much better than that of the British. Germany's commercial expansion was also the main cause of World War I. Because Xia Jun wants to smuggle, he has to use his own boat, and at the same time, involving the sea is an inevitable step for a big country.

Although Xia Jun's financial income at this time was relatively large, his expenses were also very large, especially when it came to hiring doctors and engineering teams to come to Fujian, as well as the increase in the number of students who came to Jian'an, and the increase in administrative personnel and troops, all of which needed money, not to mention the construction sites everywhere.

In terms of finance, Xia Jun was very extreme, and his monthly income of nearly 10 million US dollars was squandered by Xia Jun, and he could only leave 1 million US dollars a month.

For this reason, Li Shijing enlightened Xia Jun a lot, asking him to save some money, so as not to have no money for emergency in the future, Xia Jun doesn't care every time, anyway, just find a bank for emergency.

Next year, after Fujian is fully planted with high-yield crops, not only will agricultural income skyrocket, but at the same time, farmers' income will increase, and market demand will also expand, so as to further stimulate industrial development.

In terms of making money, it is not realistic to lend money to the gringos, who will lend you money and have to promise them all kinds of benefits.

To put it another way, it is a traitor, selling national interests to gringos in exchange for loans, such a thing is naturally impossible for Xia Jun to do.

Historically, Sun Cannon often did such a thing, cheating money everywhere, and went to Nanyang to deceive overseas Chinese to go to Britain, France, and the ......, and every time he went to a country, he would inevitably make a wish, and all kinds of conditions for betraying the country one after another, but in addition to saying that he was a little supportive of Sun Dacang, other countries were not very cold to Sun Cannon, and he was only a liar. Sun Dacang's most notorious traitorous clause was the "Sino-Yue Covenant" signed with Yue Ben, which was more extensive than the "Twenty-one Articles" that Yuan Shikai had received.

Therefore, Xia Jun had no illusions about borrowing money from foreign powers.
