In general, the efficiency of the British and the Jiangnan Bureau was still good, and after the three battleships entered Shanghai, they soon entered the dry dock, and a series of repair and maintenance work was carried out. Compared with those busy shipyard workers, the officers and men of the Beiyang Naval Division have become the most leisurely, looking at the devastated battleship, many officers and soldiers left tears of sadness, yes, this is their ship, with them after several naval battles to bring them back safely to the ship.

Leisurely does not mean that there is nothing to do, in fact, there are too many things to deal with Xu Jie and others, first of all, the wounded are a problem, being burned by picric acid charge is very strict, in the era of no antibiotics, infection is basically unavoidable, especially dragging a braid behind the head increases the chance of wound infection. Therefore, the wounded must be rescued immediately. And the rest of the thing? It is also very important to deal with the aftermath of the war dead, the pipe bands of Beiyang can not fall into a indifferent infamy, and finally and most importantly, after going ashore, how to deal with these soldiers who have been fighting for more than two months? It is said that after a bloody battle, it is normal for soldiers to relax, but how to relax? It's not okay to fall apart at once. Xu Jie doesn't understand this, if you want to talk about naval warfare and technology, Xu Jie's brain naturally has rules to follow. But Xu Jie hasn't studied this thing. And as the officers and soldiers went on vacation, another problem arose, the issue of counterintelligence. Although Leshantang, Japan's largest spy agency in China, has been swept away, the spy system against China that the Japanese have painstakingly operated for more than ten years cannot be pulled out in Beiyang in a few years, not to mention that in Shanghai, Lao Li is still a little beyond his reach. But fortunately, Peng Haifeng and others, who have been operating in Shanghai and other places for 4 years, are willing to help, and with Boss Peng's people to provide guidance and protection, it is said that there will be no major problems, right? Xu Jie said in his heart. As for Xu Jie's own plans? Once you've taken care of what you have to deal with, get a good night's sleep. During this time, he was frightened and nervous, and Xu Jie decided to go through the most difficult years of his life.

The idea is good, but there is a huge gap between the idea and the reality. Just after Xu Jie dealt with a series of large and small bureaucrats with the Jiangnan Bureau, the Jinling Bureau, the British, and Shanghai Dao, just when Xu Jie was ready to sleep well, Boss Peng came to the door! If it were someone else, even Lin Yongsheng and Xu Jie, they would dare to sleep first before doing things, but this Peng Haifeng, Xu Jie didn't dare to slack off, the son of the family still had to bring thousands of children and the Japanese to work hard, and the sea transportation still relied on the fleet of the Chinese in Nanyang. And Peng Haifeng's biggest advantage is that the Nanyang Chinese and Li Hongzhang, the old forces in Beiyang, are not in the same line, and there is no benefit to the Qing government, if Xu Jie wants to do extraordinary things, Peng Boss is far more reliable than Li Hongzhang's Beiyang or even Liu Mingchuan. In terms of fundamental purpose, Peng Haifeng and Xu Jie's purpose is closer. Therefore, so far, in addition to the fleet in his own hands, Boss Peng is the most suitable and important ally!

"Boss Peng, ten minutes, ten minutes at most. I'm going to sleep. Xu Jie's eyes were red and swollen and he said.

"Mr. Xu, the old money is here just to spread the news, and the Shanghai silk merchants want to talk to Mr. Xu about something. I wonder if Mr. Xu can enjoy his face? Peng Haifeng looked at Xu Jie, whose eyes were red and about to run away, and said with a hint of apology. To say that the silk merchants in Shanghai at the end of the Qing Dynasty were mostly from Nanxun. The climatic conditions of this place are unique, very suitable for silkworm breeding, as early as the Song Dynasty has been an important silk production area, hundreds of years of prosperity. Especially after the Taiping Rebellion, a large number of silk merchants relied on Shanghai in order to escape the war, and Shanghai was the largest commercial port in the Far East at that time. So these shrewd merchants immediately embarked on the road of exporting silk. The huge profits from the export of silk made the assets of these Nanxun silk merchants grow rapidly, and there is a saying in history that there are four elephants, eight cows and seventy-two dogs. How is this classified? There is a folk saying that the so-called elephant refers to a large merchant with a family property of more than one million taels. A hundred thousand taels to five hundred thousand taels is called a cow, and a two hundred thousand taels to five hundred thousand taels is called a dog. Although this is only a folk saying, it is not without basis, these silk merchants occupied a very important position in the economic life of Shanghai at that time, and even in the entire southern Qing Dynasty. …,

If you want to talk about how the Nanyang Chinese led by Boss Peng dealt with these silk merchants, we have to start from the time when Chinese capital entered the Qing Kingdom in a big way. After a large number of Chinese capital entered Shanghai, Guangzhou, Guangzhou, and Taiwan, the first industry to invest in was light industry, and the silk reeling industry was the top priority. This created a head-to-head competition with the local silk merchants in Shanghai. The Nanyang Chinese factory has Shanghai Road, and the Huai system is covered, so naturally there is nothing to do in the government, so the silk merchants in Nanxun use the raw material channels and market contacts in their hands to compete with the Nanyang Chinese, and although the Nanyang Chinese are outsiders, there is a saying? If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools! In terms of efficiency, no matter how high the level of your handmade silk reeling is, can it compare to machinery? And you haven't developed all the raw material channels, the Chinese in Nanyang are a one-stop internal circulation system from production, transportation to sales, and the cost is much lower. Nanxun silk merchants only master the two links of raw materials and production, while Nanyang Chinese are the whole system from raw materials to the final market. Moreover, there is still a significant generation gap in the technical level of the two sides, and in terms of capital, the Chinese in Nanyang are more abundant and more familiar with foreign trade. Later, an incident occurred that contributed to the final compromise between the two sides, that is, the purchase of warships in Nanyang that year, the vast number of Nanxun silk merchants in order to curry favor with Liu Kunyi paid a lot of money, and later after the outbreak of the economic war against Japan, under the instruction of Liu Kunyi, the silk merchants naturally had to make some moves, and under Xu Jie's arrangement, the Nanyang Chinese also began to join the economic war against Japan, so that the two sides had a common goal, and there was a basis for cooperation. So the two sides began to shift from confrontation to cooperation, and specifically, the silk merchants were responsible for the domestic affairs of the Qing state, such as raw materials and workers. Nanyang Chinese businessmen are responsible for production, transportation and sales. The result of the union of the two great forces is to directly let MADEINCHINA's raw silk beat Japan's raw silk to the ground! After this incident, the two sides began to re-divide the sphere of influence, the Nanxun silk merchant family is doing this, naturally can not lose the old business, and the Chinese businessman naturally can not spit out the meat in the mouth in vain, so the two sides agreed that the Nanxun silk merchant is responsible for raw materials and production, and the Chinese are responsible for providing relevant machinery and technical support for the silk merchant as well as transportation and sales, and occupy a stake in the silk reeling factory. In this way, the two parties established a system of raw silk production similar to that of a trust. The silk merchants who have broadened their horizons are less and less satisfied with simply operating the raw silk industry, and they find that the profits of the modern industrial transportation industry, especially the machinery industry, are very large! And the Nanyang Chinese also need to pass the road of guò silk merchants to obtain a broader development prospect in the Qing Dynasty, after all, there is such a saying that a strong dragon does not suppress the head snake!! What's more, this is a group of ground snakes!!

But now the problem has come again, the Nanyang Chinese did not have any experience in heavy industry at the beginning, when they were mixed in Southeast Asia, they were all engaged in plantation transportation and light industry, when a vote of Nanyang Chinese arrived in Europe, they immediately confused those dealers who blew their products into the sky. Some people are in a hurry, and after buying a batch and coming back, they find that many of them are outdated products, and some people are calm, what is the result? Came back empty-handed.......

Boss Peng explained to Xu Jie for about half an hour, and the dizzy Xu Jie figured out what was going on with this so-called pick-up, it turned out that he wanted him to come forward and use Xu Jie's knowledge and European connections to help these Chinese businessmen purchase products! In the eyes of Peng Haifeng and others, Xu Jie bought naval guns from the British, land artillery from the Germans, and power systems from the French. In the end, where the Italians built ships, several major powers have traveled all over! It shouldn't be any problem to help Peng Haifeng procure these things.

"What the hell, I already knew that I was traveling, and I was looking at more historical materials in basic industries!" Xu Jie complained in his heart. However, Boss Peng's request, he couldn't ignore it, so he agreed to come down, anyway, no matter how early this matter is, it will not be carried out until the end of the war, and he will go to make a statement, and then set a general strategy. However, Xu Jie didn't want to participate in any troublesome banquets, so he asked Boss Peng to call a few representatives over and sum them up at his residence, at this juncture of the war, Xu Jie didn't have so much effort to take care of these things.
