Chapter 454: Forming a New Company
Zhang Chu's words offended everyone, and only their family did the business together, and everyone else should not do it. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Even Liu Yu couldn't listen to it and said: "We are looking for you not only the idea of a few merchants in Ningbo, but also the commission of the merchants in the Songjiang area, the momentum of your development in the past two years is too strong, and other businesses engaged in textiles will not survive, if the merchants in the entire Songjiang area are offended, I think it will be difficult for you to do business in the future." ”
"Boss Liu listened to me finish speaking." Zhang Chu smiled at Liu Yu and continued: "I said that everyone should close the factory, not to let everyone not do textile business, but to organize everyone to make a fortune together, didn't the brother just now say that we use water-powered looms to reduce costs, if everyone also uses the same machine, can't you also make money?" ”
"Will you sell us a new machine?" Someone asked suspiciously.
"It's not a problem to sell the machine to you. But if you buy the machine, you have to rebuild the factory and train the workers to use the new machine, and it will take a long time to make money. And I believe that when the new machine arrives in your hands, someone will copy it, and when the time comes, the machine will be in the hands of those with more financial resources, and a bigger factory will be built, and I will have to drink the northwest wind like you. Zhang Chu understands that China has no awareness of intellectual property rights, and does not think it is wrong to copy other people's machines.
"What then?" This truth is very simple, and some businessmen here have thought about it if they get Zhou Jialin's machine to imitate it.
"In fact, it is very easy to do, let's build a big factory together, and strictly manage the factory, so we are not afraid of technology leakage." Zhang Chu's purpose was to draw the merchants into his camp.
"Build a factory together? How do you build a law? ”
"We all contribute money to build a new company, whoever pays more money will get more benefits, and then we will manage it together, and here is a charter for everyone to look at." Zhang Chulai had already had the idea of establishing a joint-stock company with the businessmen in Ningbo, and he had already brought several copies of the same articles of association as the company in Shandong. A guy came over and handed out the charter to everyone.
"We use this charter in Shandong, and we also use this charter, and we cooperate very well, and I believe that it will not be too bad in Ningbo. We unite and then continue to develop, maybe we are the only one in the entire Songjiang cotton production. Zhang Chucheng continued when everyone read the charter.
"According to this charter, if you invest the most money, you will have the final say in all the affairs of the factory, and our money will not be spent for you in vain, and if you say that you don't make money, you won't get a penny." Someone asked after reading the charter quickly.
"You can look at the articles of association, in the articles of association, who has more money who has the final say, this money is not a person's money, if several people together add up to the amount of money, you can also nominate a representative to say, don't worry about financial issues, the company will have special personnel to manage property, everyone can send their own accounts or guys to participate in it, every day to stare at, who wants to do what the hell is impossible." Zhang Chu is still very welcome for merchants to send people to join the company, with the expansion of the company's scale, a large number of talents are definitely needed, and it is definitely undesirable to have a skilled account clerk to join Zhang Chu.
Everyone no longer said anything, but took a serious look at the charter.
After a while, everyone sat there thinking about the feasibility of this matter, and Liu Yu, the president of the Chamber of Commerce, was the first to speak: "This charter is really good, and it is also very fair. But I still have a problem, according to what you said, this kind of new machine will have to top dozens of the original ones, and the production speed is very fast. We are going to build a big textile factory this time, and there will definitely be a lot of cloth produced, and if so much cloth is thrown out at once, will it squeeze out other people's factories in the Songjiang area, and then we will become the enemy of all Songjiang merchants, which is not good. ”
"Our company is open to the outside world, whoever wants to make a fortune with us can invest money in, we can expand production, make more money and share it with everyone."
"But that will produce more things, and won't there be no place to sell them?" Merchants still had doubts about Zhou Jialin's kind of water-powered machine that weaved cloth quickly, believing that there was no need for something like this to appear in this world.
"Our vision can be a little farther, and the cloth we weave can not only be sold in China, but also sold to the Japanese and Nanyang." Zhang Chu had already thought about the sales of the goods.
"We've heard of people doing this, and the profits are very considerable, but the imperial court has a sea ban, and ships are not allowed to go to sea, and we have no way to go to sea, so there is no chance to make this money." Everyone knows about smuggling from the sea, but they don't have the opportunity to participate.
"To be honest with you, I have a port and a fleet on Liuheng Island, in fact, most of the cloth produced by Boss Zhou has been sold to the Wa Kingdom, otherwise your life would have been unbearable." Zhang Chu said with a smile.
"Ahh After listening to Zhang Chu's words, some people were surprised, and some people were moved, and asked Zhang Chu: "Your textile factory has let everyone become a shareholder, and your fleet has absorbed people into the shares?" ”
"Of course I'd welcome anyone if they wanted to, but everyone should think about it, the risks at sea are very huge, and if you don't get it right, you will lose all your money, so you have to think about investing your money in this area." Zhang Chu wants to be captured.
"How big your fleet is, can we see how big it is?" Some people are not afraid of the risks at sea, they are afraid of the sinister hearts of the people, and they are afraid that Zhang Chu will talk big and cheat everyone out of money.
"That's easy, in a few days my fleet will sail to the port of Ningbo, with not only merchant ships but also an armed fleet to protect merchant ships. Everyone who is interested can go over and have a look. Zhang Chu knew that these businessmen didn't see rabbits or eagles, so they had to let them see the real thing.
The businessmen present said that if this Boss Zhang's words were true, then his courage and strength were too great. The smugglers also dared to swagger the fleet into Ningbo Port, and there were armed guards, so it seemed that the sailors of the imperial court were not taken seriously.
"At that time, I will definitely find Boss Zhang to buy shares." Some people can't wait. Such opportunities do not come every day. And they believe that Zhang Chu did not brag, because blowing this kind of cattle that will break in two days has no effect, and people can't see Zhang Chu's ship when they go to the port, and Zhang Chu can't get any benefits.
"Boss Zhang, I am still a little worried, if we join forces to form a company, build a large factory and make the accounts public, then it will become a big fat piece in the eyes of the government. Come over from time to time to take a bite, and our hard work will be in vain. "Liu Yu is still relatively stable. Rather than going to sea for adventure, he prefers to make money by weaving cloth steadily. However, the status of businessmen in the Ming Dynasty was low, and it was okay to make some money without making a sound, if the business was bigger, and there was no backer, maybe the powerful would say a word, and the business would become someone else's.
"You don't have to worry about this, the government dares to touch you, but it doesn't dare to touch me." He said confidently. (To be continued.) )
