Chapter 163: Dividing the Spoils

War is a continuation of politics, and politics is a continuation of the economy.

Most things in this world can be measured in terms of economic benefits.

Shanghai Tang Qingbang and the Chen family may have just seen the Xie Group's factories and many industries in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, but they didn't know that they had been favored by more people.

On the cruise ship on the high seas, Xie Niancheng ushered in an acquaintance: Chen Qin.

Now Chen Qin is the commander of the 18th Army of the Chinese Revolutionary Army.

Jiang Wei sent Chen Qinlai, which was already an attitude in itself.

On this boat, with Jiang Wei's people, as well as the people of the Kong family and the Song family, the fate of the Qing Gang and the Chen family is actually doomed.

What everyone needs to discuss is that after the Qing Gang and the Chen family fall, who will eat meat? Who drinks soup? Who gnaws bones!

What surprised both Xie Niancheng and Chen Qin was that Kong Xixiang, the head of the Kong family, and Song Shujia, the head of the Song family, also got on the boat.

"Little brother, you're a treasure this time." Kong Xixiang joked when he saw the brother-in-law of Song Shujia.

The Song Shu family is planning to marry Song Meimei to Jiang Wei, which is not a secret.

"I can't help it!"

Song Shujia shook his head with some distress, "Meimei said, she won't marry...... I'm here this time, to be honest, and I also want to see what kind of character this Commander-in-Chief Xie is...... My daughter's lifelong events, I, as a father, don't worry about it, who will worry about it? ā€

When Kong Xixiang heard this, he couldn't help but sigh when he thought of his baby daughter Kong Lingying's style.

The two got on the boat, and Xie Niancheng greeted them together with Kong Lingying, Song Meimei, and Chen Qin.

The Kong family and the Song family were already de facto allies with Jiang Wei. So when discussing things, I didn't deliberately avoid anyone.

"Gongzi Kong and I are partners, and Miss Song is an old friend. Commander Chen and I fought hard together...... None of them are outsiders, so I'll just say it today. ā€

"I'm responsible for clearing Shanghai Tang and the Chen family, and my part is directly deducted from the loans of the Kong and Song families, what do you think?"

Kong Xixiang said: "Commander Xie, how to deal with the Chen family's factories, land and real estate, as well as the Qing Gang's industry in Shanghai?" As far as I can see. It's not very suitable to package and price directly, so it's better for everyone to take what they need? ā€

Kong Xixiang's main business is finance, and he has little interest in land and real estate.

"Commander Xie. What Brother Kong said makes sense, and I also think it's better to divide it carefully. Song Shujia was talking about business, and his attention was completely on Xie Niancheng.

Xie Niancheng nodded, anyway, he wasn't going to take those things.

"Good. Business matters. Boss Kong and Boss Song have the final say...... It's just that I wonder what you're interested in. ā€

Chen Qin said: "Commander-in-Chief Xie, I'll say it first...... What Commander-in-Chief Jiang means is, can we hand over the industries of the Green Gang in Shanghai and the land and real estate of the Chen family in various parts of Jiangsu and Zhejiang to our revolutionary army? ā€

Kong Xixiang and Song Shujia had no objection to Chen Qin's construction, and it seems that Jiang Wei, the Kong family, and the Song family must have reached an agreement in advance.

Xie Niancheng simply didn't waste time, and directly said his requirements: "Boss Kong and Boss Song, the reputation of the two of them in my Han business community has always been reliable, so I won't say anything here." Anyway, this time around. I'll leave it to you, I'll just do the rough work and the tiring work. ā€

"Hahaha, Commander Xie is really a cheerful person, my Kong family has always been open and honest with partners, so this matter is settled."

Xie Niancheng nodded to Kong Xixiang, and then said to Chen Qin: "Commander Chen, I still have something to ask you to tell Commander-in-Chief Jiang." ā€

In the agreement reached in advance between the Jiang, Kong, and Song families, all the land and real estate of the Chen family, as well as the properties and properties of the Qing Gang in Shanghai, would be handed over to Jiang Wei, and Jiang Wei would distribute most of them to the officers at all levels under him after taking them. In return, the military and political financial services of Jiang Wei's territory will be handed over to the Confucian family's Huafeng Bank and the Song family's Daxia Bank to manage. As for the factory enterprise, it requires strong professionalism, and Jiang Wei does not think that he and his generals are capable of running it, so he has no intention of getting involved.

Hearing that Xie Niancheng had a request for Jiang Wei, Kong Song and the others were very interested in hearing it, did Xie Niancheng want to join forces with Jiang Wei?

Xie Niancheng said: "Please tell Commander-in-Chief Jiang that I would like to ask the central government to issue a trade order, abolish the tax cards of the provinces, and allow the free circulation of goods, so as to promote the economic development of our Han Dynasty." ā€

There are many reasons for the backwardness of the economy and the sluggishness of industry and commerce in the Han Kingdom, but the large number of tax cards is definitely an important reason.

Now from Shanghai to Chengdu, by water, there are more than a dozen tax cards; By land, there are hundreds of tax cards!

With such heavy taxation, how can industrial enterprises develop?

At present, the grain, machinery and equipment imported by the Sichuan government are all in the name of the Sichuan Revolutionary Army military, and people on the road naturally cannot tax these things. However, if Sichuan's light industry develops, if taxes are paid in every province or even county in Dahan, then the products will not be very competitive.

In the past, there were many tax cards in various places, because there were many warlords, and each grass king would set up cards on his own territory and pluck the feathers of geese.

Now that the Yangtze River has completely fallen into the hands of the revolutionary army, it is theoretically feasible to abolish the tax card.

However, Chen Qin also understands that the income of many revolutionary armies now depends on this, and it is very difficult to completely abolish it, but since Xie Niancheng proposed it, he could only nod and agree to pass on this word.

Xie Niancheng is not in a hurry.

A large number of light industrial products in Sichuan will be put into production at the earliest, and it will take a year at the earliest. Bringing up this matter now is just to let Jiang Wei think about this matter first.

The spoils distribution meeting ended successfully in a harmonious atmosphere.

Kong Xixiang and Song Shujia stopped Xie Niancheng and said that there was still something to discuss.

Here, Chen Qin, Kong Lingying, and Song Meimei walked out of the VIP room first.

Kong Lingying said: "Meimei, aren't you worried about anything like this?" ā€

What Song Meimei and Xie Niancheng have done on the ship in the past few days, Kong Lingying naturally knows clearly.

"I'm not worried about anything...... Oh, you mean Jiang bald? I'm not going to marry him. I heard that his head is the sequelae of Hualiu disease, and it is better not to marry him. ā€

"Then you want to marry the big head?"

"Isn't it good to marry him?" Song Meimei asked rhetorically.

Kong Lingying thought about it, it was really a woman who married Xie Niancheng. There's really nothing wrong with that.

Seeing Kong Lingying stunned, Song Meimei said again: "However, Xie Datou, I am not married." ā€

"How?"

"I think it's still a happy person, you can do whatever you want, unrestrained!"

"You're not afraid of breaking the heart of the big head?"

"Hmph, he. Didn't you see that he didn't even look at me today? In his heart, he doesn't know how many people there are. Behold, I am thy woman. He is also much more important in his heart than I am. ā€

Song Meimei is talking about Zou Xuan.

Zou Xuan followed and hid on the boat, which was something that Kong Lingying also knew.

Kong Lingying seemed to have thought of something, and her face was very hesitant.

"Cousin, what are you thinking?"

"You say. How about I let Zou Xuan and Ruan Xiangyu give me two children? ā€

Song Meimei's eyes widened: "You? Have a baby? ā€

You can't do it yourself. It is Kong Lingying's regret.

Kong Lingying said: "I asked people to help Zou Xuan and Ruan Xiangyu give birth to a child for me, what do you think?" ā€

"Wow, I don't know which man is so sexy?" Song Meimei almost blurted out.

Song Meimei thought about it seriously.

Kong Lingying has always regarded herself as a man, and if she has a child under her name, she will be able to really separate from the Kong family, which is something that Kong Lingying has dreamed of for many years.

In this era, adopted children inherit property. is a normal thing, some time ago Kong Lingying also thought about going to an orphanage to adopt a child.

Kong Lingying likes Zou Xuan and Ruan Xiangyu. If it is their child, Kong Lingying has been raised as her own child since she was a child, which is much better than raising two casually.

"Cousin, your idea is a bit bold, but it doesn't seem impossible...... It's just that Zou Xuan and Ruan Xiangyu know your plans? ā€

Kong Lingying shook her head, "They don't know, but they also want children, I know." ā€

Whether it is climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix, or being forced to be helpless, since Zou Xuan and Ruan Xiangyu have chosen to be by Kong Lingying's side, they can't marry lightly.

But they are women after all, and they also want their own children.

This is a taboo that cannot be talked about in a three-person room.

Song Meimei asked, "Aren't you afraid that they will run away with the man you are looking for?" ā€

"No, because the person I'm looking for must be reliable."

Song Meimei thought for a while: "Ah, you can't be beating your brother's idea, right?" ā€

"My brother? Gambling day and night, he is also worthy of Xiaoxuan and Xiangyu? ā€

"What...... Even your brother is not worthy, who else is worthy? Song Meimei was a little unconvinced.

Seeing Kong Lingying's somewhat strange expression staring at her, Song Meimei suddenly thought of someone.

"Ah, you're trying to make ...... No, no, I don't agree. ā€

Kong Lingying said: "I think the big head is good-looking, and his brain is good, so it's him...... Why don't you agree? Who are you? ā€

"I—"

Song Meimei was speechless for a while.

When she was in the United States, she fell in love several times, and she only had a temporary intention for Xie Niancheng. If you want to say how much love, there is no, the two are completely in love. Man cannon. Friendships.

Song Meimei pursed her lips, "You think well, but I don't think it can be done...... You, most of the time, lost your wife and lost your soldiers! If you really let Zou Xuan and Ruan Xiangyu and Datou do something, and get pregnant with Datou's child, I estimate that they will both have to go with Datou. Do you think the big head will leave his children and women behind? ā€

"What his women and children, obviously my women and children...... Besides, no one cares, I'm in charge! ā€

Song Meimei shook her head, her cousin and "best friend" sometimes does things too wishfully.

The Han people attach great importance to blood, don't she know?

The more Kong Lingying thought about it, the more excited she became, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that this could be done.

"Meimei, you said this, should I ask the big head first? Or go ask Xiaoxuan first? ā€

Song Meimei was a little speechless, "Whatever you want, it's time to smash it, don't say I didn't remind you in advance!" (To be continued......)
