Chapter 718: Future Planning

"Are you sure?" Fusu asked.

He was so shocked, yesterday he thought that there would be a tribal leader to agree, but he definitely didn't expect that basically all the leaders would agree.

Jiang Lu was not surprised by this, before leaving Xianyang City, he had already learned about the situation in the land of Baiyue from Ying Zheng.

The land of Baiyue is now very complicated, and many leaders have completely surrendered to Great Qin, especially those small tribes, who can only choose to be destroyed if they do not support it.

There are also some people who say that they support Great Qin on the surface, but in fact, they want to use the imperial court to develop their own power, and they may end up opposing Qin.

Although some defected to the imperial court, there was enmity between the various ethnic groups, and they often fought-for-tat, and even fought hard, but they were later settled by Wang Ben.

Especially the open and secret battles between the various tribes, only when Fusu is in the land of Baiyue, they have some restraint.

After learning everything, Jiang Lu was inexplicably excited and told Ying Zheng directly, and he would properly handle their relationship and ensure that the tribes would get along amicably.

Ying Zheng is that no matter whether Jiang Lu can do it or not, he must do it now.

Li Si has already established a chamber of commerce, so Jiang Lu must also become a chamber of commerce, and the Li Si family must not be allowed to dominate, otherwise the power of the nobles will become greater and greater.

Yingzheng can completely ward Li Si and let him take it easy, but in this way, it will discourage the enthusiasm of nobles or businessmen.

Now Daqin needs commerce to develop Daqin, therefore, Yingzheng needs to take a step forward than Li Si, so that the control is still in the hands of Yingzheng, that is, in the hands of the imperial power.

Jiang Lu knew what Ying Zheng meant, so he quickly came to the land of Baiyue and wanted to reach a cooperative relationship with the leaders of the major tribes.

But he didn't expect things to go so smoothly.

"Chiefs, since you agree, then we will sign the contract, my people have prepared everything, you can read the contents of the contract first, and then decide whether to sign it or not.

Of course. You can also discuss it." Jiang Lu said.

Then Lu arranged a group of shopkeepers to take the contract and hand it over to the tribal leaders.

After all the tribal leaders got the contract, they looked carefully, and everyone looked at it very carefully, for fear of missing a little.

After reading the contract, they found that there were many overlord clauses in it, for example, if they did not cooperate, Jiang Lu would have the right to directly tear up the contract without compensating for any losses.

Also, they had to obey unconditionally anything that was beneficial to the caravan, or else they would be expelled from the caravan.

In addition, during the construction of Hong Kong, some people stole women to play slippery, deliberately delayed the construction period, or cut corners, not only to be held legally responsible by them, but also to compensate the chamber of commerce and the imperial court for losses.

There are overlord clauses, and there are good clauses, such as if someone is injured or dies at work, and the chamber of commerce will give a certain amount of compensation?

For example, when you encounter danger when you go to sea, you will be given a hundred taels of silver for death, and fifty taels for broken hands and feet, and so on.

Or in the construction of Hong Kong, if you unfortunately die, you can also get compensation, even if you are sick, you can also get corresponding compensation.

Not only that, but gifts will be given to everyone during the New Year's holidays and so on.

After the construction is completed, how many houses and shops will be given to them in Hong Kong, etc., all of which are written in the contract.

This made all the leaders covetous, and such generous conditions made them forget about those overlord clauses directly.

Many of the leaders who had questions were patiently explained to them.

Finally, after everyone fully understood the contract, they began to sign the contract.

There are three contracts in total, one is a chamber of commerce contract, the chamber of commerce contract is overbearing, but free, you can quit at any time if you want to.

However, after withdrawing, it will lose some of the powers and interests of the chamber of commerce, including the fleet and the qualification to build Hong Kong.

If you leave the Chamber of Commerce, you will have to leave the fleet, and you will lose the qualification to build Hong Kong.

At this time, everyone has seen things very thoroughly, and the Chamber of Commerce is the general

They came together, then formed a fleet and built Hong Kong.

And the fleet and the construction of Hong Kong can give them huge returns.

Therefore, everyone did not hesitate to sign the letter, and in the Chamber of Commerce, there is another point that makes them very excited, that is, the president of the Chamber of Commerce will be re-elected every three years, and at that time, anyone may become the president of the Chamber of Commerce.

After everyone had signed, Jiang Lu said to everyone, "Congratulations to everyone for becoming a member of the Baiyue Chamber of Commerce.

I hope that after you enter the Baiyue Chamber of Commerce, you will always be a member of the Baiyue Chamber of Commerce, and do not leave the Baiyue Chamber of Commerce easily.

Of course, I hope that this is a request, not to mention that it is forced, if there is a good place to go, I also hope that you can go to the Baiyue Chamber of Commerce.

Today, my head still hurts, I hope to let me rest for another day, and at the same time, I hope you can find a good place to become the headquarters of Baiyue Chamber of Commerce.

Then establish more branches in the land of Baiyue, and the role of the branches is to attract businessmen to join and look for places to invest.

And the leaders will become the heads of the branches, and I will assign you a treasurer, and then look for projects where you can invest.

Once you have it, then they will pay for you to build roads. Although there are many places that have been known with Guangzhou City, there are still many places where roads have not been built.

In addition, I will pick a few places among you to build three workshops, a steam plough truck workshop, a steam harvester workshop and an automatic seeder.

You should have heard of these three things, they were made by the emperor, and from now on, there is no need to plough oxen to cultivate the land, which greatly saves time and manpower, and allows your people to have more time to do other things.

And I'm going to build a shipyard and a port, which requires a lot of manpower, so I need you to provide manpower.

But don't worry, I will pay the wages, arrange room and board, and ensure their livelihood. Of course, I can't give you the profits from these four workshops.

But I also have other workshops, such as cement workshops, pen, ink, paper and inkstone workshops, and lantern workshops, and I can let you invest, that is, give them to you according to the ratio of 28.

I'm eight, you're two, but what you have to do in these workshops is to have enough manpower, enough security, and the site of the factory, etc.

Otherwise, I won't be able to give you 20% of the benefits.

In addition, I hope that you can also support the construction of the road, after a cement road is repaired, it is not free for everyone to pass.

Merchants who want to use this concrete road will have to pay a fee, which of course is included in our interests.

Of course, the people of your tribe are free, but the foreign merchants charge for it, and the road will be free until we collect the cost we have put in."

Subsequently, Jiang Lu began to explain the future planning and the distribution of benefits, such as opening a workshop for large businesses, and building taverns and restaurants for small ones.
