207 External and internal troubles

The Zhoushui Alliance and the Xiangping Walled City completed a deal totaling up to 20 million copper coins for cheap raw materials for 50 heavy sailing ships, which was undoubtedly a huge purchase order for the Zhoushui Shipyard, from which it obtained extremely high profits. The Zhoushui Shipyard sold these raw materials to the Zhoushui Alliance industrial merchants in Tanggukou, providing the industrial merchants with an abundant supply of raw materials.

However, the deal also poses a problem.

After Xiangping Chengzhai had a large fleet of its own, it began to abandon the three major shipping merchants of Zhoushui and directly sell the raw materials produced in Liaodong to the hinterland of the Yellow River and the Shandong Peninsula at higher prices.

The Zhoushui Alliance can no longer continue to monopolize the sale of raw materials in Liaodong, which has brought a long-term negative impact on the industrial and commercial exhibitions of the Zhoushui Alliance. This deal is good in the short term, but bad in the long run.

This transaction involves a series of changes in interests, which is enough to dazzle.

As the leader of this transaction, Qin Xiaobai is clear about every detail of the stakes.

From the perspective of the Zhoushui Alliance and the Xiangping Walled City, this is actually a silent and active concession by the Zhoushui Alliance to the Xiangping Walled City -- the Zhoushui Alliance has monopolized the shipping of Yingkou to the Zhoushui Alliance and the Xiangping Walled City. The price of raw materials in Yingkou is no longer unilaterally decided by the Zhoushui Alliance, and the players in Xiangping Walled City also have more say in it.

This concession was made on its own initiative.

Qin Xiaobai knew. If it is pressed too tightly, sooner or later, the Xiangping Walled City will join forces with the powerful player forces of Yan and Qi in the Yellow River, Shandong and other places to break the monopoly of the Zhoushui Alliance on the Bohai Sea. The leader of the Xiangping Walled City sent people to buy sailboats everywhere in the present life. It is a precursor to joining forces with other shipyards in the Yellow River, Shandong and other places. Rather than waiting to be sniped by many opponents, it is better to break the game in advance, make certain concessions to the Xiangping Walled City, and take the situation into your own hands. Wait until trouble arises to realize it, and rush to solve it, that is not what a qualified leader should do.

This concession is to take the initiative to open the pressure reducing valve to reduce pressure.

The Zhoushui Alliance sold a large number of sailing ships to the past and present lives. Now the Xiangping Walled City has its own large fleet. You can transport raw materials to any place in the Bohai Sea to sell them at will, which naturally greatly reduces the sense of urgency to join forces with other forces and players to fight against the Zhoushui Alliance.

What Qin Xiaobai is thinking about now is not just external competition. He sensed that the balance of interests of the various factions within the Zhoushui Alliance was also gradually getting out of control, and the discontent between the factions had increased.

Internal and external troubles, either of the two can destroy a huge force.

Not to mention the external troubles, there are as many external troubles as there are competitors, and it will not be able to solve the external problems for a while and a half. Qin Xiaobai relieved the pressure of external troubles. To a large extent, I also want to solve the internal worries that have arisen first, and then concentrate on dealing with external troubles.

Let's talk about internal worries first.

In the last two months, the Zhoushui alliance has swelled dramatically. The sphere of influence has rapidly expanded from the Zhoushui Walled City to the Tanggukou Base and the Lushunkou Fortress. In addition, the power of the Bohai Alliance has also spread all over the Bohai Bay, including Jicheng, Bohai Walled City, Liaoxi Walled City, Qinhuangdao, Leling, and the Yellow River, and the sphere of influence has become so complex that it is difficult to estimate.

The two pillars of Qin Xiaobai's control of the situation are the Zhoushui Alliance and the Bohai Alliance.

Under these two pillars, his circle of influence has swelled more than tenfold compared to two months ago. But he didn't think it was a good thing. The faster the power swells, the more members of the team will be. The more internal factions. There are many factions within the country, each with its own interests and needs. Direct conflicts of interest are also increasing. If there is not enough interest to balance them, then the crowd will gradually drift apart, and the risk of the entire alliance will collapse out of control. Just like there are many emperors on the throne in history, but there are very few who have done it steadily.

Whether a leader's level is high or not depends on the balance of interests.

Take Zhoushui Shipyard, for example. Qin Xiaobai himself accounted for 99% of the equity, and the Micai Qingniu accounted for 1% of the equity. When the shipyard was first established, the investment was huge but the income was small, and it was far weaker than other industries such as bronze, herbs, armor, and ceramics. The various power giants within the Zhoushui Alliance were not very interested in it. Two months later, today's Zhoushui Shipyard has tens of thousands of NPC craftsmen, and has become a behemoth, involving the interests of many players, and is one of the core industries of the Zhoushui Alliance, with extremely high profits.

In the transaction worth 20 million copper coins with the Xiangping Walled City alone, a net profit of millions of copper coins was earned. Other industries made much less profit from this deal than shipyards. This will undoubtedly affect the interests of the various faction leaders.

If Qin Xiaobai occupies 99% of the equity alone, it is already very unsuitable. Only when everyone is involved in the interests will everyone be happy, and everyone will compete to serve.

He decided to relieve this internal trouble first and take the Zhoushui Shipyard as a knife.

He retains 51% of his own shares, increasing his stake in the Lost Fortune Green Bull directly to 9%. The other 40% will be transferred to all the giants within the Zhoushui Alliance in the form of "sale and transfer", and everyone has a share.

As soon as his decision came out, it immediately caused shock and surprise among the top leaders of the entire Zhoushui Alliance. Zhoushui's shipbuilding industry has become a large industry second only to the bronze industry, with broad prospects. The little white boss has a large amount of equity transfer, which is undoubtedly extremely attractive to them.

The stake of the Lost Fortune Green Bull has increased to 9% at once, and I am grateful for it. Sheep, nameless, thousands of miles do not stay, become kings, god kings, blood killing, all the lines of Sima, various industrial and commercial departments have rushed to invest in the purchase of equity.

Of course, the portion size varies, ranging from 5% for the high to about 0.1% for the low. Equity cannot be transferred privately. The transfer must be agreed to by Zhoushui Shipyard, but dividends can be paid on a monthly basis. Through such an equity transfer, the interests of Zhoushui Shipyard. Each faction's leader can enjoy the land, which minimizes the complaints of each faction's leader. Qin Xiaobai also deliberately reserved an equity for the firmament of the Tanggukou base and the Dapeng wings of the Lushunkou base to enhance cohesion.

The ordinary players of the Zhoushui Alliance heard that Zhoushui Shipyard was going to sell part of their equity and wanted to buy it, but after learning that the equity transfer of Zhoushui Shipyard did not include ordinary players, their enthusiasm quickly cooled down.

This is just the beginning, and the matter is far from over.

This time, Zhoushui Shipyard redistributed its equity. It mainly involves the interests of the high-level leaders of the Zhoushui Alliance. Pull these brains together. But what Qin Xiaobai wants is not only to let the interests of all factions within the alliance be equalized, but also to eliminate the various mountain factions within the alliance and fully integrate the interests within the entire alliance.

Next, Qin Xiaobai continued to take the number one industrial chain of the Zhoushui Alliance of "bronze smelting industry, bronze processing and casting, bronze weapons and equipment manufacturing, bronze farm tools, and bronze sales". The bronze smelting industry has always been the sphere of influence of hundreds of players in Qin Xiaobai, Sheep, and Xiaobaijun, and outsiders cannot interfere.

Qin Xiaobai officially transformed this industry into "Zhoushui Heavy Industry", specializing in smelting, researching, and casting heavy equipment. And in accordance with the Zhoushui shipyard model for allotment. He is 30 percent personal, 10 percent sheep, and 20 percent of the hundreds of members of the Little White Army. The remaining 40% is still sold to the giants of the Zhoushui Alliance. This time, it still doesn't include ordinary Earth Circumferential Water players.

Zhoushui Shipyard and Zhoushui Heavy Industry, the two major industries personally controlled by Qin Xiaobai, first implemented the equity system. It caused a great shock within the Zhoushui Alliance. The high-level players seemed to understand what Qin Xiaobai wanted to do, and some ordinary players with a keen sense of smell had already sniffed out a big storm coming.

Sure enough, after the implementation of the equity system in these two major industries, the interests of Qin Xiaobai and the leaders were deeply bundled. Qin Xiaobai immediately began to meddle in other important industries within the Zhoushui Alliance.

There are more than 200 industries in Zhoushui's three major shipping companies, Zhoushui herbal medicine industry, Zhoushui bow and arrow manufacturing industry, Zhoushui carriage industry, mining industry, pharmaceutical manufacturing industry, ceramics industry, silk industry, and glass manufacturing industry, which are integrated into factories one by one in batches and implemented equity transformation. Like thousands of miles without staying, bloody mining is controlled, and the god king controls the herb industry. They all have to be taken out and transformed.

Most of these industries are controlled by oligarchs from various high-level factions. Huge profits are made from it. They should take the initiative to take out the equity transformation and distribute a part to others. The difficulty is very high.

But Qin Xiaobai set an example, first took his two major industries and transferred part of his equity to them. and then ask them to follow themselves and carry out equity reform, so that they have no reason to shirk.

And this time, ordinary players within the Zhoushui Alliance also have the right to participate in the shares. The enthusiasm of the more than 100,000 players of the Zhoushui Alliance, which had been hit, finally burst out, cheering for Xiaobai's large-scale transformation of the entire alliance this time, and expressing strong support. In such a situation that everyone wants, no giant of that faction dares to refuse to open up his sphere of influence.

There are three modes of equity distribution: high-level shareholding in factories, ordinary players in factories, and mixed participation.

Leading shareholding factories - mainly military industry and heavy industry, only Zhoushui high-level leaders are allowed to participate in shares. Qin Xiaobai alone has participated in dozens of core factories.

Ordinary players participate in factories - mainly civil and light industry, and ordinary players are allowed and must participate in Zhoushui, and a single player is not allowed to participate in more than 51%.

Mixed Equity Participation - Mutual equity participation between factories.

Use these three models to integrate the interests of the forces within the entire Zhoushui Alliance, forcefully merge the interests of various factions, and resolve the conflicts of interest between various industries and business factions. It avoids a situation where one family gains and the other suffers.

The player's equity is only allowed to take dividends, or return to the factory, and private transfers are invalid. Because the conditions are not yet ripe, equity transactions are not allowed for the time being. The first equity distribution center was located at the Tanggukou military base.

It can be said that after the equity transformation, a situation of both prosperity and loss has been formed. The success of any industry will benefit players from other industries within the alliance. Of course, the decline of an industry will also bring many losses to the members of the alliance.
