Tianjin.

Xinglong Machinery Factory.

The establishment of this machinery factory is still somewhat legendary!

The general manager of Xinglong Factory is called Su Yulong, and his father Su Daxing is also a businessman, and the Su family can be said to be a family of merchants.

Su Yulong originally did business in a foreign firm.

Later, he offended the foreigners, and in a fit of anger, he handed over his resignation.

After Su Yulong left the foreign firm, he was introduced by his father to Gongxing Iron Works to solicit business. Gongxing Iron Works is a private machinery manufacturing factory, founded by Xu Fushou, Du Abao, Wang Xingfa, etc., just a few years after the establishment of the factory, the main business is to repair small steamers, textile machines, etc., but also to undertake the business of striking iron and turning sand.

Since the opening of Gongxing, although the business is passable, it is not prosperous, it is just maintained. The main reason for this is the lack of a person to do business with foreign parties. In the past, there were a few people who ran away, some were messing around, and some were in Cao Ying's heart in Han, and they were all overwhelmed. This time, Xu Shoufu heard Su Daxing say that he would send his son, who was working in the foreign bank, to run away for him. I was so happy that I didn't know what to do. He thought to himself, "It is said that this young man is both shrewd and able to speak foreign languages, which is very rare." God bless me, and my wealth will roll in from now on. When Su Yulong stood in front of him neatly dressed and polite, he looked this young man up and down, and sincerely liked Su Yulong, and said:

"From now on, you will be in contact with foreign ship business. This road can make a lot of money for our factory, and I will not treat you badly if this errand is completed. ”

Su Yulong heard it and felt that this boss was very discerning.

After Tianjin became a treaty port, foreign ships came one after another, and it was very lively. Ships come and go, how can there be no bad reason? As soon as the machine breaks, the ship has to break down, how can there be any reason not to repair it on the spot? This is called business experience, but it is not easy to really master and use it well. For the ambitious Xu Fushou, how could he let it go. And Su Yulong, who was born in a business family and has been deeply influenced by it for a long time, has a talent for business.

Now the master and servant can be regarded as chess opponents, and they will meet good talents. The foreigner's money is earned.

Su Yulong's brain is flexible, and he is also diligent. Within a few days, I received several foreign business. Xu Fushou rewarded him and used him even more. Gradually, I entrusted the more important things to him, and carefully observed them from the side, and tested them in many ways. Xu Fushou felt that Su Yulong was quite reliable. So, I didn't bother with him anymore.

Tempus fugit. The sun and the moon are like a shuttle. In the blink of an eye, more than half a year has passed. During this period. Su Yulong is running around for Gongxing wholeheartedly, and the days of Gongxing are becoming more and more prosperous.

There are unpredictable circumstances in the sky, and people have good and bad luck. There was a man named Zhu Shunsheng who originally ran outside the Gongxing Iron Works, but he was dismissed because of his relationship with Xu Fushou. Zhu Shunsheng has always held a grudge. Always looking for an opportunity to avenge the past. Since Su Yulong came to the factory, Gongxing has become more and more developed, Xu Fushou's pockets have become more and more bulging, and Zhu Shunsheng has not been angry. He was calculating and calculating, but he had nowhere to start. Suddenly, he suddenly thought of Su Yulong.

I thought to myself, although this person is smart and capable. But still a chick. I only know how to do stupidly, I don't know how to make money, I am a pure fool. As long as I enlighten him, I can borrow his hand to avenge my old revenge. It's a brilliant idea. This method is called killing people with a knife. The more Zhu Shunsheng thought about it, the more proud he became, so he chose an auspicious day to stop Su Yulong on the road, and pulled Su Yulong into a hotel with both soft and hard measures. Su Yulong had no choice but to accompany him. At the wine table, Zhu Shunsheng was extremely enthusiastic, pushing the glass and changing the lamp, filling Su Yulong in a daze. Zhu Shunsheng saw that the time had come, so he persuaded him to enter the boss and do his own private business.

At first, Su Yulong felt that this was not righteous enough. can be enlightened by Zhu Shunsheng again and again. Finally stopped insisting. Zhu Shunsheng saw that Su Yulong was silent, and thought that there was a door. Today's money is not spent in vain. As the saying goes, a gentleman takes revenge. Ten years is not too late.

I, Zhu Shunsheng, will take revenge today, and I won't take revenge on my husband.

After Su Yulong and Zhu Shunsheng finalized, they contacted more private jobs. Zhu Shunsheng has a group of masters who specialize in private work. In this way, the interests are evenly distributed, and I have a lot more money. Su Yulong gradually tasted the sweetness, so he became more and more bold, and his feelings for Gongxing were also weak.

Su Yulong never dreamed that the good times would not last long. It didn't take long for Zhu Shunsheng to take another step out of the second chess piece in order to fight Xu Fushou!

He secretly sent someone to tell Xu Fushou what Su Yulong had done: "Boss, there has been little work in Gongxing recently. Have you ever noticed? ”…,

Xu Fushou asked puzzledly, "How do you say this?" ”

"You're still in the dark, and no one in the factory knows? You may be the only one who doesn't know. ”

Xu Fushou heard that there was something in the words, so he asked, "How do you say this?" ”

"It is said that there is a person in Cao Ying's heart in Han, who runs away with your money, but makes money and stuffs it into his pocket, and Gongxing will become his in the long run."

When Xu Fushou heard this, he was a little skeptical, thought for a while, and said with a calm face: "Don't talk nonsense in the future, Su Yulong works hard all day long, running around and thinking about Gongxing." Is it reasonable for some people to be jealous of others? ”

Xu Fushou said this, but he muttered in his heart. He began to pay close attention, and sure enough, he realized that something was wrong, and he was so angry that he almost fainted.

When he calmed down, after careful thinking, he felt that Su Yulong's talent was rare. The young man is fluent in foreign language, has a flexible mind and strong ability to do things. There is no one in the whole factory who can compare with him. The young man is young, and it is inevitable that he will be a little negligent. Maybe it's understandable that you are short of money and have to do it as a last resort. After thinking about it, he decided to talk to Su Daxing, Su Daxing is a smart person, and if he comes forward to give him a lesson, Su Yulong will definitely change his ways.

immediately found his old friend: "Brother Su, it's been good recently!" ”

Su Daxing saw Xu Fushou's sudden visit, and some of the second monks were confused. He estimated that Su Yulong had something to do, so he asked:

"Brother Ren, is there something wrong?"

"Nothing. I miss not seeing you for many days, so I came to see Brother Su. “”

"How's the dog doing?"

"The virtuous nephew is smart and capable, but he is just slippery, and he also asks Brother Su to give him a lecture."

Hearing this, Su Daxing knew in his heart that his son had never made a big mistake. I think that I am not willing to live under others for a long time to be motivated, "in the love field, on the battlefield, any means should be used", when my son studied in the UK, the British proverb brought back can be described as extremely incisive. Thinking of this, Su Daxing couldn't help but smile slightly, but pretended to be deaf and dumb.

Xu Fushou repeatedly hinted at Su Daxing to no avail, so he had no choice but to decide to teach Su Yulong a lesson in person and warn him, so as not to make him more and more bold. Unexpectedly, as soon as he spoke, Su Yulong had already prepared, and Xu Fushou was speechless after a few words. Before he could react, Su Yulong had already left.

At this time, Su Yulong's mood was extremely complicated. The breakdown of relations with Gongxing led to the implementation of his long-brewing plan. This is the excitement he has never felt in his life, and he will be self-reliant, his own master, and no longer under the fence and at the mercy of others. He longs to break into society alone and use his wisdom and strength to do something great. It was the first major event in his life. This matter was placed in front of him like a priceless jewel, and it was dazzling. He decided to take it, but he knew that it would take a lot of money, and that it might not be successful. Although he decided, he still had some concerns about failure. There are many difficulties in front of me, and although I have some ways to solicit business, I am not familiar enough with production technology. In addition, there is a lack of funds in hand, and it is also difficult to set up a factory as a sole proprietorship. What made him even more troubled was how to explain the matter to his father. As a result, all kinds of complex thoughts came to his mind, making him sometimes happy and sometimes worried. He doesn't pay attention to everything around him. He was immersed in his own thoughts, and stood there for a long time

In fact, Su Yulong's worries were completely unnecessary. His father didn't mean to blame at all, but seemed to have an approving expression. Su Yulong's little tricks had long been seen through by the old man, but he didn't want to interfere, so he indulged and instigated him to this day. After all, the Su family is a comprador family, and they have been in contact with foreigners for a long time, and they have been soaked in Western customs intentionally or unintentionally.

Although Su Daxing has the majesty of a parent, he is never arrogant, but allows the development of the children's personalities.

Su Yulong saw that his father was so well-informed, so he didn't want to hide anything from him, so he told his father all about his plans.

It turned out that Su Yulong had already successfully negotiated with blacksmith Chu Xiaomao, and the two set up a joint venture factory, each contributing 2,500 taels. Chu Xiaomao was born as a blacksmith, proficient in craftsmanship, and handled things roughly!

At the beginning of the collegiate discussion, Chu Xiaomao insisted that he find someone in the account room, and Su Yulong understood Chu Xiaomao's intentions in his heart, and agreed very happily. The boss of Gongxing is also a person in the old gangster society, and he is all played by me, not to mention that you are a rough person? I can work with you today, but I just borrow you for a while, how can he be there? …,

Su Daxing listened to his son's plan and felt that there was not only a shortage of funds, but also many things that needed to be solved. Jiang is still old and spicy, Su Daxing is scheming, and invited his son's father-in-law and uncles to help his son.

Things were as Su Daxing wished, and everyone helped solve most of Su Yulong's problems.

Su Yulong's father-in-law promised to help a share.

Uncle Su Xiaoping undertook the import of machinery abroad in the name of her husband Mao Yangxing; Other relatives may have promised what they could.

Everything is going well. So Yulong came forward to lease two bungalows for use as temporary factories.

At the same time, seven skilled workers and four apprentices were recruited, and business relations were established with Mu Xianghuang's Yitai ginning factory and German Laohu silk factory. At first, due to the lack of equipment, it was nothing more than some simple and sporadic repairs.

Soon, the machines ordered by my husband Mao & Co. arrived abroad, including eight lathes, one bull planer and one gantry planer, and a set of 20 horsepower cements furnace engine equipment. After the equipment is installed, it shows that the plant is not enough.

Su Yulong consulted with his father again. Su Daxing thought for a while and said: "The year before last, I bought a piece of land on Pingliang Road, about two and a half acres, with twelve iron-sheet and wood-plank bungalows, which have not yet come in handy. ”

Su Yulong couldn't wait to say: "How about the father rent it to his son first?" ”

Su Daxing nodded and smiled: "Of course you can." It's just a lease and the rent is paid monthly. Pro-pro, wealth is wealth, and it must be clear. Do you understand? ”

Su Yulong Nonolian claimed "yes".

As a result, the "Xinglong" machine factory was officially opened!
