Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
It was Chinese New Year's Eve in two days, and Lin Gui wondered why Jiang Kui wanted to find himself at this time.
The other former pirate leaders were also very puzzled, Jiang Kui was usually busy with his own things, and the Confucius Institute had consumed a lot of energy, and he had to write lyrics and make songs, and he didn't care what the former pirates were doing.
What's going on today?
A group of former pirates were led all the way to the Confucius Institute, cursing and swearing along the way, and finally gathered in a conference room.
It's not bad, the oval conference table is full of fruit snacks, and when this group of unsophisticated people sit down, there will be a maid serving tea immediately, and a guy will start to tease the maid until Jiang Kui appeared at the door and coughed heavily, and the vulgar plot did not continue.
Then, Lin Gui saw Chen Liang.
Lin Gui has seen Chen Liang, Mr. Jiang Kui Jiang is easy to talk to, but Chen Liang was born with a momentum that is not angry and self-authoritative, Lin Gui originally sat as if it was extremely unsightly, but when he saw Chen Liang coming in, he immediately stood up and saluted, and when the other people saw Lin Gui like this, they also stood up and saluted.
A group of usually unruly guys immediately sat down respectfully, they understood that it was better to know Chen Liang a little better if they came today. Legend has it that Chen Liang said the same thing in Annan Zhancheng, he can stop your coal transportation business with a word, and this person should not provoke him.
Jiang Kui simply came to an opening remark:
"Director Chen invited you to come over today, but there is an unusual good thing to tell you, please don't be impatient, please listen to Director Chen announce this good news for us."
Chen Liang glanced at these people, and the people present only felt that they were swept by Chen Liang's sharp eyes, and their hearts were scolded, and they said that they should not be reaping benefits before the year, when these people were pirates in the past, they always wanted to grab a vote before the year, and naturally thought that Chen Liang was going to slaughter a vote before the year.
Chen Liang also felt that he was not very friendly just now, so he changed his smile and said:
"Brothers, after washing your hands this year, business is good! As far as Chen knows, there are many more people and horses under your command than before, and there are more ships, and you can transport coal from Annan, and you can also transport back the goods of the Great Song Dynasty on the return trip, I think everyone here should make a lot of money! ”
When the people present heard this, their hearts were indeed the opening words of the slaughter.
"Everyone, the first thing you should be thankful for is Mr. Jiang, without Mr. Jiang, you are still a gang of thieves, you must remember that it is Mr. Jiang who makes you no longer have to be afraid, and all of them are doing a legitimate livelihood. Congratulations on your luck! ”
The people below say, the more you say this, the more money you want, please! Just say how much it costs!
"I invite you to come today, first of all, I want to remind you that this year's business is good, but next year may not be so good. Did you know? Many shipowners in Quanzhou have heard that the livelihood of transporting coal here is good, and they are interested in transporting coal after the year. You say, isn't that the truth? ”
Of course, these guys who were originally pirates were very well-informed, and when they heard Chen Liang's words, some people couldn't help but nod.
"I'm going to announce to you that it's about transporting coal after the New Year. After the New Year, you have to contract the coal transportation business, and you can't be so messy anymore, you have to integrate, integrate into a company, and a company will be responsible for contracting transportation, unified management, and unified freight rates. After the year, the coal transportation business will be transported by three companies, the company you set up here is one, the Taiwan Song Haimao needless to say, it is also one, and the other is the Quanzhou Shipping Company. ”
Depend on! It's finally here! Not to mention that Quanzhou Shipping Company wants to get a piece of the pie, just the integration of this is very fatal. Although Lin Gui is the most powerful, there are many people who don't buy Lin Gui's account, and it is not easy to integrate into a company! These people who were at odds with Lin Gui first felt that this was difficult to do, among them, He Zhu and Lin Gui couldn't pee in the same pot, and they suddenly felt that this matter was very tricky. However, everyone knows that Chen Liang has absolute authority to speak on the matter of coal transportation, and no one dares to interject and question casually.
"In addition, I said ugly things ahead, if anyone dares to do the deeds of the former pirates, and the Quanzhou Shipping Company can't get along, hum, the iron ship built by the Guogong is not vegetarian, if anyone dares to give birth to a heart of disobedience, there will be no forgiveness!"
Chen Liang's words were very loud, and the hearts of the people sitting were a pang again, someone was playing this idea, and wanted to use off-board tricks to plot against the newly intervened shipping merchants, so that they couldn't do it, and suddenly listened to Chen Liang's solemn warning, and said that he really built an iron ship, only Chen Liang wrote about an iron ship in his novel, and it is said that he killed the world's wooden boats, and it seems that he doesn't have to think about this trick.
Chen Liang saw that everyone looked nervous at the moment, so he smiled and said:
"Brothers, don't be polite, come and come, the snacks and fruits on the table are as you like, for the New Year, please come here for a good thing, don't be nervous. I also told you that after the New Year, during the Lantern Festival, Mr. Jiang will invite you to a whale feast. ”
Lin Gui was in a good mood, but at this time, his heart was also up and down, and he didn't know what Chen Liang's idea was, so he asked tentatively:
"Director Chen, I don't know if there's any good news?"
Chen Liang saw that these guys were almost beaten, so he smiled and said:
"Brothers, have any of you ever eaten whale meat?"
Everyone shook their heads, and said in their hearts, what is the purpose of you suddenly talking about this!
Chen Liang said in his heart, in fact, I haven't eaten it either, but today I have to start with this whale:
"Have you heard, Jinding went to Ezo Island, they made a lot of money there, have you heard?"
This time they all nodded.
The people of Taisong Haimao spread the news that Jinding went to Ezo Island to make a fortune all over the world, and everyone here heard about it.
"As far as I know, the whale meat still tastes good, well, delicious! However, what I want to tell you today is not a question of whether whale meat tastes good or not, but what I want to say is that whales can make people rich, and that is the key. ”
When the audience heard that they were rich, a gleam flashed in their eyes, but then they thought, whales can get rich, this has a relationship with us!
Chen Liang finally got to the point:
"Maybe you don't know, after Jin Ding arrived on Ezo Island, he made a lot of 100,000 yuan in the first month, and I heard that in the second month, it should not be less than 200,000 yuan, most of which are due to whales."
When Chen Liang said this, his expression suddenly became mysterious:
"You know what? Ambergris is derived from whales. ”
The people in the audience nodded, this doesn't need Chen Liang to say, this is almost a well-known secret, is there still a lot of people in Taisong Haimao!
"It's hard to say anything else about Ezo Island, but I can't stop that whales are abundant there. Why are there so many whales? You know, the fish in the sea like the most are in the hot current, so there are countless fish on Ezo Island, it is a large fishing ground in the world, as the saying goes, big fish eat small fish, then whales eat small fish, since there are countless fish on Ezo Island, there are naturally more whales there. ”
The audience was amazed that they still had this hobby! Is it true that they like to have cold water and warm water at the same time? What a long insight! Well, it must be that the fish like cold during the day, warm at night, and exposed to the sun during the day, of course, they should stay in the cold water, and if it is cold at night, they will naturally go to the warm water.
The reason why Ezo Island, or Hokkaido, has become the world's largest fishing ground, is certainly not what Chen Liang said. That's because the Kuril Snap and the Japanese Warm Current meet in Hokkaido. The confluence of cold and warm currents disturbs the seawater, and the upper water brings nutrients to the surface of the ocean, allowing plankton to flourish like never before, which in turn provides abundant food for fish, which is why a large number of fish schools make their home here. In addition, the confluence of cold and warm currents can create a "water barrier" that prevents fish from swimming, which is conducive to the formation of large fishing grounds. For these two reasons, Hokkaido is the largest fishing ground in the world.
Chen Liang only listened to Mao Geng's brief words, but he didn't understand the reason, but it didn't affect him to swing freely.
Listening to Chen Liang's flickering, he didn't feel anything wrong at all. The audience only admired Chen Liang, Chen Liang really wrote novels, sprinkled with joy, and all words were swayed. However, as the saying goes, a thousand words are written, and a digression is thousands of miles, Chen Liang said it with one mouth, and it was even more cloudy, and he didn't know when such a would be able to get to the right thing today.
"Ladies and gentlemen, you must be thinking in your hearts at this moment, what does it have to do with you when I talk about whales! Is it that I, Chen Liang, want you to go to Ezo Island? Hehe, I didn't mean that, the imperial court has already arranged for the matter of Ezo Island. But what I want to tell you is that in addition to Ezo Island, there is actually another place that is also rich in whales. ”
"Where?" , Someone opened their mouths and asked, and everyone was interested.
Chen Liang didn't say anything at this time, but drew a picture on the blackboard.
"Look, this is right here, and it's also a whale fishing ground."
Chen Liang was referring to the Bay of Bengal.
"If it had been too far to go here before that, even if we knew that it was rich in whales, we would have to sigh. It would have taken us more than half a year to get there, just at sea, but now we have the chance. ”
"Oh!" , the following gives a signal of benign interaction, apparently people who yearn for whale ambergris and then count on getting rich overnight, and there is an expected response.
"This is the good news I want to bring to you, because we at Huaxi Construction Company will soon be able to take this place, the Kra Isthmus. Do you see, the narrowest place in this place is the Kra Isthmus, where the east coast and the west coast are not more than a hundred miles apart, our West China Construction Company has a grand plan, in the first year, is to build a road, connecting the east and west coasts, after the road is repaired, the east coast and the west coast will be built ports, I think, just like Ha Long Bay here, it will soon prosper, because not only the whale fishing ground is within reach, but also, and Tianzhu business can be done once a year in the past. Increase to more than three times a year, think about it, Tianzhu's business is a lot of profitable business! One more trip will double the income, three times the past, do you want to join? ”
He Zhuxin said in his heart, since we can't get along with Lin Gui, why don't we just take a look at the opportunity over there, so he said:
"Director Chen, how do you join?"
"Of course, the road built by our Huaxi Construction Company is not built in vain, and this road will be a toll carriageway with four-wheeled carriages. Oh, 'if you want to live from now on, stay and buy road money', you can make two or three times more money by doing Tianzhu business, and the merchant will not care about paying some tolls. We are going to set up a joint stock company, which is called Malay Transport Holdings. In the first year, Malay Transport Holdings will build Krama Road, and then further build the Kra Canal, which of course is also charged, in short, to ensure that Malay Transport Holdings can make a lot of money. ”
"If you want to live from now on, leave to buy road money", it is very appetizing to the people in the audience, they originally did this. The name of this "Malay" is also very appropriate, build the road!
"If you wish, you can become a shareholder of Malay Transport Holdings, and you can also convert some of your shares according to the number of young people you participate! You say, "Isn't that a great thing?" ”
Finally, Chen Liang left the next sentence:
"The IPO will start after the year, please think about it! Come to me when you think about it. ”
