As the saying goes, a penny is hard to beat a hero. Yang Zhi could see that Jiang Chengbi was really anxious.

The so-called black cauldron is actually well-founded. But in troubled times, in order to achieve the goal, often unscrupulous means. The battle between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao in Guandu, due to the lack of food in the army, in order to stabilize the morale of the army, deliberately dug a pit and beheaded the grain officer, which is the most typical example.

Born in troubled times, Yang Zhiruo and many subordinates pay attention to democracy, and they are definitely in the brain. He values brainstorming, but when he makes a decision, he always says the same. Jiang Chengbi directly admits his work, which shows his loyalty.

Jiang Chengbi was born in the Sanshan Wang clan of Beiyan, his family is rich, he is full of poetry and books, and he is an all-round talent in civil and military affairs. The reason why it has fallen into today's situation is due to the influence of the old master of the world, who was poisoned too deeply. This public is faithful and principled, but it is not pedantic. In other words, such a person is not easy to fool and cannot be fooled.

As Jiang Chengbi said, Yang Zhi not only wants to give him a convincing statement, but also let him do it. The reason why Xiaoxiong can become Xiaoxiong is because he can see what others can't see, he can think of what others can't think of, and he dares to do what others dare not do!

Talking heart-to-heart with people of Jiang Chengbi's level cannot be compared with the old man who can't read a basket of big characters. Yang Zhi smiled leisurely and said: "Sir, the sage has clouds, there are things that he does not do, and he must do something." Knowing what you can't do is sometimes unwise, and sometimes it can make the seemingly impossible a reality. ”

"Let me start with the so-called open source of the gentleman! As the saying goes, scarcity is precious. The scale of operation of Goldlion firm can only maintain the current level, and it is not appropriate to blindly expand. If there are more things, it means that they are not so rare. It will definitely affect the market price. Not only that, but the principle of giving benefits to others must be adhered to. He is well versed in economics. It should be known that as long as we hold the control of the trade routes, sources of goods, and markets of overseas trade, we hold in our hands. It is undoubtedly very beneficial for us to maintain the situation of short supply and demand for a long time, to ensure the relative stability of the price of goods, and to take a long-term view. If you think about it, the market is still the market, and the people who buy things are still who, if you expand the scale of business, the growth of profits is very limited. …… When I say so, sir may understand? ”

Put it in a past life. In a word, it is said that the monopoly position in the seller's market must be maintained for a long time. Jiang Chengbi thought for a moment and admitted: "It does make sense. ”

Yang Zhi continued: "Then the next one, Mr. is not difficult to understand. Mr. said that he would increase the number of patrols and expand the scope of activities, and that was to put it mildly. To put it bluntly, it is to grab diligently, grab more, and grab it far away. It is important to know that businessmen are valuing profits, but they also cherish their lives. How unwise is it to fish in the dry waters? Most businessmen are shrewd people, how many of them will risk their lives to make money? No one dares to do business anymore. Who are we going to rob? is still the same sentence, even if it is a robbery, it must be moderate, and you must think about how long you can rob it. ”

"Speaking of our cooperation with Qin. I admit that our strategy has adjusted with the changes in the political situation in Great Xia. In the past few years, the Qin clan has hoarded a large number of supplies on the islands off the coast of Shandong. The establishment of the Yamen of the Governor of Customs and the landing of various matters in Yizhou. It's a lot of investment. Sir, my brothers have to settle accounts! Now we have food for our soldiers and materials for our craftsmen's workshops. Most of them were shipped from the islands off the coast of Shandong. A large part of them belong to the Qin family. ”

"I would like to say a heart-to-heart word to my husband, we are cooperating with the Qin family, not merging. If it's extortion and scoundrels, I'm a good hand. But it also depends on the person and the time! It's a person who does this, so who will dare to deal with me Yang Zhi in the future? Since it is cooperation, I have my dignity, and the Qin family has the principles of the Qin family. Sir should know that aside from my brotherhood with Qin Kongyun, is the Qin family so easy to get along with? ”

"The Qin clan's reduction of the semicolon is true, but it has a huge structure, and it is all timed, do you think the Great Xia Emperor is a pig? To tell you the truth, I have drawn a cordon for Brother Kongyun, and the gold hoarded by the Qin clan will be exchanged for fifteen million taels of silver, and it will not be moved again! Without a firm with guaranteed gold reserves, the Qin family is no longer the Qin family, but a liar who brings disaster to the country and the people. The Qin clan also doesn't need a partner who blindly asks for money, and if we want to ask him for money, he will give it, but he will definitely make it clear with me first. The two of us are a partnership, not a merger! Why bother? Why? ”

Yang Zhi sighed: "Throughout the ages, but there are other ideas that do not accept the king, and population is the most important resource. Whether it is to fight or to treat, it must be done by people. What we lack most today is people. If the population of Yizhou is more than 3 million, and it only needs to be cultivated for 10 years, it will definitely be self-sufficient, and the supply of soldiers can be guaranteed, and none of us need to be afraid. But not now! If the recruitment is suspended and the placement standard is lowered, who is willing to come? Who would dare to come? For the people who are eager to live and work in peace and contentment, no matter how much truth they say, it is better to show them in a down-to-earth manner. ”

"I once told Emperor Xia not to be warlike and not to forget to fight. If you are reckless, you will die if you are warlike, and you will be in danger if you forget to fight. Although I, Yang Zhi, have attacked a corner of the camp, I have no intention of being called a king and an emperor. However, in order to protect themselves, how dare they slack off? Sergeant's salary, weapons and equipment, workshop research and manufacturing, not a penny can be saved! With a knife in his hand, and better, faster, and more ruthless than someone else's, will he still come to mess with you? Do you dare to mess with you? ”

Speaking of this, he said with a deep smile: "I want to remind Mr. in particular that the trade in armaments is not an ordinary business. In the future, you will know that not only is it ten times more profitable, but it may be able to determine the victory or defeat of the war of the nations. There is a way that is great and profitable, how can you give up halfway? ”

As for the dividends of Xiong Zhan and his wife, they must not be reduced. At the beginning of the merger of the three companies, there was an appointment first. Today's backbone generals in Yizhou are mostly from the old team of the three families. Yu You have faith, I tell myself, I am by no means a good type who abides by the faith of holding the pillar. Once it is reduced, it will inevitably lead to sudden suspicion and distraction, and internal division! ”

"Xiong Zhan and his wife were exiled at sea as bandits, fighting for half their lives, and they are already middle-aged. Do you think they don't want to live a peaceful life? How far can I go and how long I can last, they don't know the bottom of their hearts. But as long as the family is rich and rich, with the ability of their husband and wife, but in case, where can the world go? The dividend guarantee of Goldlion is not only my credibility, but also their indispensable reassurance! ”

Yang Zhi patiently refuted one by one, leaving Jiang Chengbi speechless for a while. Since all the suggestions of opening up sources and reducing expenditure do not work, the lack of money is a real fact in front of us, and the problem must be solved!

I only listened to Yang Zhi's confident words: "The way of wealth endowment, when it is used, it is used, and if it can be saved, it is saved." My husband is well-intentioned and conscientious, and I have always admired him very much. There is merit in Mr.'s suggestion. For example, the resettlement and subsidy for immigrants can be reduced year by year according to the number of years of residence, and the subsidy can be cancelled for those who have settled for more than three years. If you live for three years without illness or disaster and can't get enough food and clothing, then such a person is either lazy or stupid. ”

"As for the solution to the problem, I only think of two for the time being: one is to open a money bank under the Jinlilai firm as soon as possible. Those who have spare money save, and those who need it lend. As soon as this month's customs gold arrives, one million taels will be taken out as start-up funds. ”

"Second, isn't our fleet still ready to go to sea for actual combat? In the end, it's still a grab, but it's a little farther. Out of the chicken coop to the northeast, it is the place of Dongying Fusang. The broken islands of the Japanese people have nothing else, but there is a lot of silver. In the future, as long as there is a shortage of money and urgency, we will grab it! (To be continued.) )
