(There is something to do in the evening, so I will change it today)

Wei Yungong wanted to fool Ye Kai, it was a complete miscalculation, not to mention that he knew the root cause of the disadvantages of these yamen enterprises, just take his personal experience, he has been in the officialdom for decades, how can he not know the dirty things between officials and businessmen, and what is even worse is that before he came, Li Pingshu told him the truth and truth, he didn't come here to wander around, and his homework had already been prepared. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

In fact, since ten years ago, the business situation of the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau has deteriorated, and later it has completely become a parasite relying on financial subsidies, this grim reality made Ye Kai determined to do something to it.

"Isn't Governor Liang joking?" Wei Yungong smiled unnaturally.

Ye Kai stiffened his face and didn't answer, it really didn't look like a joke.

"Good Governor, although these foreigners do not obey discipline, but relying on the skills in their hands, they are rampant in the factory on weekdays, and they are really unaccustomed to their humble duties, but then again, if they are gone, the guns that the court wants..."

"So you can't do without them?" Ye Kai turned around and said.

Wei Yungong nodded solemnly, "Although this is ugly, the truth is like this. ”

"Hey.." Ye Kai almost laughed, "General Office Wei, you say, is it the foreign technician who is important, or are you important members of the imperial court?" ”

Wei Yungong's face stiffened, and he didn't know how to answer.

Ye Kai said for him: "If you people are important, then the foreigners can be dismissed immediately, so as not to get in the way, if the foreigners are more important, then you don't have to stay, all of you are dismissed, if neither is important, I think, the brand of the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau can be picked." ”

After Ye Kai finished speaking, he strode away, leaving Wei Yungong and a group of escorts, their faces as pale as dirt.

"This..."

After a long while, he came back to his senses and asked Li Pingshu on the side, "Brother Se Zhai, what did you say about Governor Liang?" His eyes were full of surprise.

"Brother Changzhi, you, you.."

Li Pingshu walked up to him, patted his shoulder, and showed a self-satisfied expression, "Lord Governor's eyes are like lightning, he knows no less than you and me..."

....

"Good Governor, please have tea."

When the group came to the conference room, Wei Yungong was a lot more attentive, running up and down, afraid that Ye Kai would find trouble with him.

"This is the best Biluo Spring, there are seven years of Tibet, the good governor is afraid that he will be tired after a day, and he will taste a cup of fragrant tea, which is the most relieving of fatigue." Wei Yungong said with a smile on the side.

Ye Kai took a sip, the tea was good tea, but the person in front of him couldn't help but have a longer tongue.

"General Office of Wei"

"Humble Duty"

Leaves open under the teacup.

"I ask you, where does the funding for the General Administration come from?"

Hearing this, Wei Yungong's heart immediately sank again, but he didn't dare to make up nonsense anymore and answer truthfully.

"Customized by the imperial court, drawn from the customs silver."

"How much?"

"400,000 a year"

"Is it enough?"

"In addition to the purchase of raw materials, the cost of guns and cannons, and the salaries of craftsmen and officials, there are still forty or fifty thousand taels left every year, and all this money is used to research new technologies, such as imitation stun guns, twenty-four bead continuous guns, etc..."

"In other words, the General Administration under the General Office of Wei is still peaceful." Ye Kai glanced at Wei Yungong and stared at the latter sweating, "Except for a few foreigners who are unruly?" ”

Wei Yungong blushed and said, "No matter if everything is peaceful, but do more for the imperial court." ”

"The Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau is the largest weapons manufacturing plant in Jiangnan and even in the Qing Dynasty, and it is not enough to do one, but to do a little more." Ye Kai flicked the table and said lightly.

"Why don't you want to be humble." Wei Yungong immediately nodded.

"Well, since General Manager Wei also thinks so, things will be much easier, Commissioner Li, can you tell General Manager Wei about it?"

Ye picked up the teacup and stopped talking abruptly, let's talk? Say what? Wei Yungong was confused.

Li Pingshu said: "Brother Changzhi, the good governor means to reorganize the General Manufacturing Bureau. ”

"Reshuffle?!"

As soon as he heard this, Wei Yungong was completely blindsided.

Li Pingshu naturally didn't care if Wei Yungong was surprised, and Ye Kai didn't, "Commissioner Li, General Wei is the person in charge of the General Manufacturing Bureau, and he should be informed about the reorganization, and you can explain it to him clearly." ”

"That's what the good governor said"

Li Pingshu nodded and continued: "According to the meaning of the marshal, in the General Bureau of Manufacturing, all coal chemical plants, steel mills, pharmaceutical factories, manufacturing plants, translation schools, surveying and mapping schools, and these basic factories and departments that have nothing to do with weapons must be independent, and then, one by one, they will be relocated to Pudong, and only the five factories directly under the General Administration will be left in the General Bureau: the machine factory, the gun factory, the gun factory, the ammunition factory, and the fire and mine factory. ”

A huge military industrial enterprise not only produces weapons and ammunition, but also comes with steelmaking, ironmaking, and coal, this kind of specialization and non-specialization is simply backward, which is equivalent to hanging an oil bottle behind him, how can it not breed corruption during the period, Ye Kai did this, it is to refine and specialize the General Administration of Manufacturing, and those basic industries will all be changed to civilian use.

"Coal, pig iron, what to do?" Wei Yungong hurriedly interjected.

"Order outward" Li Pingshu gave the answer.

"This... Isn't that redundant?! ”

"The raw materials used in the purchase of weapons must be clearly marked with the price of the General Office of Wei and recorded in the record, and the Governor's Office will send people to inspect them regularly." Li Pingshu didn't pay attention to it at all, and continued.

Wei Yungong stopped squeaking.

"Oh, by the way, the Jiangnan Shipyard under the General Administration will also be independent and move to Changxing Island in the future, and the Jiangnan Shipyard will be established on this basis to be responsible for shipbuilding."

"In addition, after the reorganization, a board of directors will be set up above the General Administration to be responsible for the size of the factory. Naturally, there is no doubt that the general director, and the other directors, when they turn around, the good governor will specially send someone to serve as the director. ”

The more Li Pingshu said, the more Wei Yungong's heart sank.

"General Wei Office, Governor Liang said that the scale of production should be expanded, how can two thousand guns a year be enough, at least eight thousand, as for how to expand, when to expand, listen to Governor Liang's orders."

Wei Yungong had to nod.

....

Li Pingshu said more than a dozen, Wei Yungong's eyes were dull, and he didn't know if he had written them all down, but it didn't matter, anyway, after today, his general office was just a decoration.

"Since General Manager Wei's office has the heart to be loyal to the country, it is necessary to implement the action, but this reorganization is very important, and I am afraid that it will not be possible to do it by relying on General Manager Wei's office alone, so let's do it, three days later, the governor will send someone to personally inspect it, and by the way, I will help General Manager Wei." Ye Kai got up and said, "It's not too early, and the governor will go home." ”

Wei Yungong has the heart to cry.

Back at the Governor's Office, it was already evening, back and forth, the road taken today was indeed not short, even an energetic person like Ye Kai felt slightly tired, but the "results" were quite rich, and splitting the General Administration of Manufacturing into two parts, military and civilian, is a good thing to kill two birds with one stone.

Technology, personnel, machines, everything is ready-made, and the heavy industry he dreamed of has a foundation in this way, although it has the nature of robbery and robbery.

It's better than nothing... (To be continued.) )
