Chapter VII Shares for Land
The location of the negotiation was placed by Lu Liang in a mansion of the Wu family in Huizhou, and all the squires who received the post arrived, and Wu Shimin greeted everyone in the front hall first. Seeing that everyone had arrived, Lu Liang walked in from outside and sat next to Wu Shimin. More than 20 people sat in a circle around the oval table, which was Lu Liang's bad taste, imitating the layout of the conference room in later generations, and the table was newly built. Looking at the people who were a little overwhelmed, Lu Liang really wanted to talk to Ma Long. Brando raised his hand as slowly and methodically, and said in a hoarse voice, gentlemen, thank you Mr. Wu for the opportunity to talk, saying that the mafia boss is really imposing!
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is Mr. Lu Lianglu, and the Ziqiang Cotton Yarn Factory is jointly established by me and Mr. Lu. Mr. Lu, this is Master Dong, this is Master Song, and this is Boss Zhang's ....... Wu Shimin introduced each other, the squire bosses had been looking at Lu Liang for a long time, it turned out that it was not Wu Shimin's own factory, I said where did he get the machinery and funds!
Lu Liang stood up and greeted everyone with a smile, and after offering a circle of hands, Lu Liang took a document from Lu Wu, the secretary of the gene behind him, and said with a smile: "Everyone is Lu Mou's elder in terms of age, and when he returns from overseas, please bear with me if there is anything inappropriate." What I have in my hand is the production and sales of Ziqiang cotton yarn mill some time ago, as well as the plan for the next period of time. ”
After Lu Liang finished speaking, everyone's eyes widened, and they hurriedly put down the teacup in their hands. This posterity is really refreshing, so quickly to get to the point, our minds haven't turned around yet! Lu Liang spread out the documents in his hand and said loudly: "The Ziqiang Cotton Yarn Factory has been established for two months, and has five steam engines, 3,500 textile machines, 230,000 spindles, more than 6,000 workers, and has produced a total of 30,000 pieces of cotton cloth so far. In the next stage, we will continue to expand, and it is expected that by the end of the year, more than 20,000 workers will work in the factory, and strive to sell the products to all parts of Guangdong and drive out the foreign cloth! ”
These words caused everyone to breathe rapidly, and an elderly squire was sent to the backyard for emergency rescue because of his fast heartbeat. couldn't care about the old man who had a heart attack, Dong Huichang, who was originally very calm, stood up and asked in a trembling voice, "Is this true?" ”
Wu Shimin smiled and scraped the tea leaves in the cup, and said: "It's true, you don't know, Ziqiang Cotton Yarn Factory can have today, everything should be attributed to Mr. Lu Liang, his background is the American Ambrera Company, there are technology, machines, and skilled workers (genetic people), at the beginning, Mr. Lu just asked me to provide workers and venues, accounting for 50% of the shares." As soon as he said this, everyone's green eyes shifted to Lu Liang, how could this Wu Shimin be so lucky to meet the God of Wealth!
"Mr. Lu, if you can let the Dong family participate in a share, the Dong family is willing to exchange workers and land, and Mr. Lu can offer the required amount!" Dong Huichang immediately decided, he couldn't make a lot of money in the land these years, cotton cloth was different, if it was done, it would be a cash cow! There is a flour mill in Guangzhou, although the scale is very small, but the income is really good, and now it is the first source of wealth for the Dong family, not to mention the huge self-improvement cotton yarn factory.
"Lao Dong looks honest and honest, but I didn't expect to react faster than anyone else!" Everyone immediately followed and said that they would participate in the shares, and there is no need to be embarrassed if there is a leader, this is an opportunity to make a lot of money.
Lu Liang and Wu Shimin discussed in advance, and each of the two families took out ten shares to distribute to everyone, and as compensation, Lu Liang took out 30 percent of the shares of the printing and dyeing factory that was still in the plan to the Wu family. Lu Liang also had a plan not to tell Wu Shimin, after seeing everyone's reaction, he knew it was time to say it: "Everyone, my company not only has a cotton yarn factory, but also a flour mill, printing and dyeing factory, clock factory, garment factory, cement factory, etc., all of which are large factories that can participate in shares, of course, the cotton yarn factory that has become profitable now and I and Master Wu each took out 10% of the shares to distribute to you, and the distribution of these 20 shares is exchanged for land, and every 10,000 mu of land is exchanged for one share, what do you think?" ”
Wu Shimin, the squire and merchant family who came here, said that they were all big landlords with tens of thousands of acres of land, and the Dong family and several other families even owned thousands of hectares, and Lu Liang wanted to use the shares of the factory to exchange the land for his own name, not to be a big landlord like them, but to solve the grain problem through the technology provided by the base, high-yield seeds and fertilizer from the fertilizer factory. Agriculture is indispensable in one's own foundation, and only when the grain problem is stabilized can one's foundation be stable. And it can also attract more propertied people to invest their property in their own side through commercial success, freeing up farmers who are rooted in the land and providing labor for the factories.
The house is silent, everyone has prepared for the exchange of land for shares, but 10,000 acres for shares, which is a bit troublesome for everyone, thousands of years of inheritance, deep into the bone marrow of the attachment to the land makes everyone undecided, we all know that a share of cotton mill shares is more profitable than 10,000 acres of land, but that is land, without land, is it still a landlord? Isn't it just to buy land and heirlooms when you make money!
Lu Liang was not in a hurry, and asked Lu Wu to send the document to everyone, he believed that after carefully reading the data of the cotton yarn factory and the light industry development plan he formulated, everyone would definitely agree to the replacement agreement. And how to distribute it is left to Wu Shimin, who is the head snake and knows how to choose the best ally.
After the meeting, Lu Liang returned to the newly built courtyard outside the steel base, and the backyard was the gate of the base, so that the secrets of the base could be hidden to the greatest extent. Wu Shimin waited in the mansion in Huizhou, and sure enough, three days later, everyone returned here one after another, believing that they went back to hold a family meeting, and this kind of thing is not something that a family head can decide. Twenty-three families, in the end seventeen families agreed to the replacement agreement, which has been beyond Lu Liang's expectations, it seems that the business sense of the southerners is strong, and there are very few people who can have this courage in this era, if it is placed in the north, it is estimated that it will be a little difficult.
The light industry plan was formulated by Lvliang in combination with the suggestions of the genetic people of the base, with SITC as the center, to build a large number of large-scale light industry enterprises, which were jointly invested by Lvliang and the squires. Only one cotton yarn factory is still too thin, Lu Liang believes that those sensitive businessmen have noticed the self-improvement cotton yarn factory, this era is not an era of fair competition, and the logic of fighting bandits if they can't sell is the mainstream. The eastern trade of the West for hundreds of years lost a lot of gold and silver, but it just couldn't sell its own products, and the self-sufficient small-scale peasant economy blocked everything out, and finally opened the situation with ** and opened the trade route with naval guns. Therefore, if they feel that Luliang's factory is a threat, those people will definitely stop this side by any means. The strength of one person is a little weak, but the strength of the whole Huizhou should not be underestimated, they represent the relationship between businessmen, officials and fellow villagers all over the whole province of Guangdong, and the power to resist risks is absolutely strong.
After the development of light industry, the focus of Luliang will be on heavy industry, that is the exciting thing, now the output of steel is still produced by the steel base, and when their own steel plant is established, they can really take off their wings.
