As an emerging city with great potential, since the branch of Daosheng Foreign Bank settled in Taonan, foreign banks such as Zhengjin Huili have also entered Taonan, adding a new vitality to the active economy of Taonan.

"My subordinates will give my lord a greeting for his old age." On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Du Liming, the number one economic cadre who managed many industrial factories under Qin Yu, personally rushed to Taonan to pay New Year's greetings to Qin Yu.

"I even mentioned so many things, I'm not a literati, I don't like the dance and ink, you can get the money, I can't look down on it, next time you want to give a gift for the New Year, just give some good wine, delicious food." Qin Yu didn't hide it in the face of his own henchmen, and said directly.

"My lord said something wrong this time, and the money that my subordinates took out is guaranteed that my lord will definitely be moved." Du Liming said with a smile.

"Rubber stocks?" Qin Yu's heart moved, Qin Yu couldn't tell the situation of the factories in his hand clearly, but it was not easy to hide from Qin Yu in big affairs.

"The adults are wise, and they can guess the 300,000 silver taels that the adults invested in the rubber stocks have now increased more than 16 times, and the stock value has reached an astonishing 4.96 million taels." Speaking of rubber stocks, Du Liming's face was also slightly colorful.

"It's been more than a year and a half, and I haven't paid much attention to it before, but I didn't expect it to be so crazy." As a descendant, Qin Yu knew that no matter what stock it was, it was impossible to keep the limit up. It has increased seventeen times in two years, and rubber is not a high-tech thing, the foam ingredient must exist, but when the foam will explode, Qin Yu can't say.

"Isn't this rubber stock thing very sought-after?" Qin Yu asked.

"Not only is it sought-after, it is simply crazy to the extent that Mrs. Kuo in Shanghai, gentry and businessmen, sell jewelry, and even sell house deeds, land deeds, and family property to speculate in rubber stocks." Du Liming said.

"I'm very satisfied with making so much money, you directly use the name of Huaxing Money to contact the foreign bank in Japan, 4.96 million taels of rubber stocks, 5.5 million taels, transfer out of the country, if the Japanese foreign bank can't eat, and then find another foreign bank, within a month or two, the rubber stock will be sold as soon as possible, and I will wait for the money here." Qin Yu instructed, "You can make so much money this time, you have made great contributions, and after the stock is cashed out, you will get 200,000 taels of hard work." ”

"My lord, the hard work is secondary, rubber stocks are rising so fast, will it be a pity to make a move now?" Du Liming is usually very calm, but all the industries under Qin Yu's hands are not as good as the income on rubber stocks, not even a fraction, and in front of the income of millions of taels, Du Liming is not so quiet.

"People have to know enough, to be honest, I only believe in those things that can be seen and touched, such things as stocks, saying that they are worth money, once they can't get rid of their hands, they will fall down in a blink of an eye." Qin Yu shook his head, there are not a few cases of tears running in tears because of stocks in later generations, and even running naked, he has made so much money, Qin Yu doesn't know much about rubber stocks, but he knows a lot about Du Liming, although Du Liming is a rare financial expert, but as a Qing Dynasty person, his vision is inevitably somewhat limited, and he also doesn't know much about the ups and downs of stocks, and he doesn't know how terrifying it is once the stocks fall. Qin Yu would rather earn a little less and be safe.

"Yes, my lord, the lowly government will sell the rubber stocks within two months, the rubber stocks are also very sought-after among foreigners, and the Japanese will definitely not refuse, even if there is more, they can eat it." Although Du Liming is unwilling, Qin Yu will not easily interfere in specific operations, and once Qin Yu makes a decision, Du Liming cannot make any changes.

"My lord, there's an Englishman named Carl out there asking to see you."

Not long after Du Liming left, Qin Yu ushered in the first foreign guest of the year.

"Happy New Year, Lord Qin." When Carl saw Qin Yu, he gave Qin Yu a Western-style blessing.

"Xie Lu Xie, Mr. Karl, you didn't come to me for a simple blessing, did you?" For foreigners, Qin Yu likes to go straight to the point, they haven't seen each other before, they don't have friendship, so naturally they don't need to talk about the past, in fact, for this kind of exchange test, Qin likes it very much, no need to go around the corner, both sides save trouble.

"Of course, Lord Qin, the achievements you have made in Taonan are remarkable, but the development of a city, you need to pay attention to many aspects, I have been in Taonan for more than three months, and I found that every time it rains in Taonan, there is a lot of stagnant water on the road that cannot be discharged, which has a very big impact on a city, and with the increase in the population of Taonan, the new garbage is also increasing day by day, once these things are not treated, one day, Taonan is full of disgusting rancid smell, do not solve these problems, It is also difficult for Taonan to develop into a truly large city. Carl said from the bottom of his heart.

"I understand what you're talking about, but I don't have any expertise in the planning of a city with a mature sewer system and a garbage disposal site, so I can only put this issue aside for the time being." This foreign devil is right, the population of Taonan Fucheng was not large before, and the situation was fine, but with the rapid increase in population, garbage was constantly generated, and some sewage was too late to be treated, and every time it rained, many places emitted a foul smell, and some garbage floated everywhere, which was really disgusting.

And most of the buildings built by foreigners are solid and reliable, unlike some tofu scum projects in later generations, in modern buildings, foreigners want to pull down a large section of the Qing Dynasty, which is an indisputable fact.

"My lord, as long as you are willing to invest, I can help you solve these problems." "The British Empire has the most advanced theory of urban planning and construction in the world, as well as a great deal of practical experience, and I can do it for you. ”

"In your opinion, how much money will it cost to build a sewer system and a garbage dump treatment site in Taonan?" Qin Yu asked.

"160,000 taels, including the greening of the city's streets." Karl first reported a number, saw that Qin Yu was unmoved, and then said, "120,000 taels." ”

"Mr. Carr, I can't entrust you with all the construction of the whole city, I don't think it's as good as this, I hire you with a high salary, as my senior urban planning officer, responsible for the construction and renovation of Taonan City, the weekly salary is temporarily set at 4 pounds, as long as your measures are really effective, I will give you a salary increase."

Qin Yu thought about it, he didn't know how many things he needed to build the groundwater system in Taonan now, Rendong, let this foreigner handle everything, and if he was played by Dang Kaizi, he might still be helping others. How can this work?

"Lord Qin, it takes a team to complete the planning and construction of the entire city, and I can't do it alone, I also have a few colleagues, and their role is also crucial." Karl said again.

"I can also hire a few of your colleagues, of course, my money is worth the money, and now I can only use the situation of employment for the time being, my territory will not be only Taonan City in the future, Baicheng is the closest to Qiqihar and Harbin, and it is also going to develop, if you do well enough in Taonan City, there will be no problem in considering contracting the entire project to you in the future." Qin Yukou is not authentic, these foreigners are only responsible for commanding, and the specific construction affairs are completed by their own people, and when they learn the foreigners, Qin Yu can't wait to kick the other party away.

Carl thought about it, and finally nodded in agreement, four pounds a week, which is equivalent to twenty dollars a week, is already a very good salary.
