He raised a sharp question, the big treasurer of Richanglong is only an executor at present, and he is the executor of the commercial measures of the Richanglong Senate, but now with the change of personnel within the Senate, the power of the chief treasurer must be decisive, otherwise many things will still be delayed.

The Senate was originally set up by the partners and shareholders around the country to settle the elderly in the process of development, just to ensure that the new family members of the company would not deviate from the direction, and would not let the entire business of the company go off the track because of their youth.

First of all, due to geographical reasons, the elders were rarely able to get together for meetings, so they entrusted the exercise of their powers to others, and the level of these entrusted agents naturally varied, and then there was the gradual increase in the official color, and the Tokyo historian is a strong example of the official color.

Among the forces in the DPRK and China, there were forces of Zhou, Liu, Sun, and Wang to seek benefits for Richanglong, Shi Siming did not know what method was used to get the support of Zhou and Liu, and also waited for the position of Richanglong's elders.

And Xiao Ming is obviously an uncontrolled person, Xiao Ming can't help but think of what Jie Zhicong said to him when he was in Xuzhou, Jie Zhicong sighed that Richanglong is getting more and more powerful, he would rather stay in Xuzhou's Taiping Iron Factory, the entire mine is managed by Li Laohe, and there is no problem with his own assistance, although he belongs to Richanglong, but he is actually semi-out of state.

The senate basically gathered all this time, it was all the original treasurers and account offices from all over the country, some agents did not attend for the time being, everyone discussed Shi Siming's proposal, some agreed and some opposed, the opinions obviously could not reach a unity, but Xiao Ming, as a party, looked relaxed.

Su Bi was sick at the meeting, and he and Song Wu, the giant of the Mo family, had high authority in the Senate, and at this time he coughed and said: "Mr. Shi doesn't know what good candidates there are, can you choose an executive treasurer for our Richanglong?" ”

Shi Siming said: "My proposal is that Shi Wenjing should be the big shopkeeper, in fact, the virtuous do not avoid relatives, our Shi family was originally a branch of the Mo family, and Richanglong is now the base camp of the Mo family, even if we return now, this is also the meaning of Lord Zhou Besides, my historian has injected all the assets of the entire porcelain industry into Richanglong, plus we are opening up the channels of the city in Quanzhou and other places, in the near future, I think the income from exporting porcelain through us may be more than several times the income of Richang Longsang hemp silk silk!" ”

An old man from the Senate stood up and asked, "Does Mr. Shi mean that we want Richanglong to shift our main business from mulberry hemp weaving to porcelain burning?" ”

Shi Siming said: "That's not necessary, but in the future profits, you will naturally make a judgment, my historian will inject millions of taels of silver into Richanglong, in order to bring a new development space to Richanglong, how to say that we are also a part of Richanglong?"

The two elders of Jingxiang and Shu stood up and echoed Shi Siming, "What Mr. Shi said is also reasonable, now in the whole Song Dynasty, there are more and more businesses engaged in silk spinning, Hubei silk and Shu brocade are impacting our market, Richanglong has now cut off the purchase of the annual tribute, and the more I go down, I really don't know what to do with this business!" ”

Another patriarch stood up and said: "Since ancient times, porcelain has been a tribute to the royal and aristocratic wealthy, and ordinary people mostly use coarse porcelain and pottery, and the profits of porcelain are really amazing. ”

This time, there was a lot of discussion at the bottom, "I heard that the Fanbang region compares the porcelain of my Great Song Dynasty to a treasure, and the price is comparable to gold!" ”

"Yes, even the Liao Kingdom and the Western Xia Kingdom can't buy good porcelain with a lot of money, and the Tubo in the Western Regions once wanted to exchange a white elephant for the porcelain at the mouth of the Ruzhou kiln, but in the end it was not available!"

……

Obviously, Shi Siming has done his homework below, there are many people who support him and waver, Richanglong promoted cotton fields on a large scale last year, encountered financial difficulties, and at this time the Shijia's capital injection played a decisive role, which also bought a lot of high-level people in Richanglong.

But it is obviously not so simple to let Richanglong give up the pillar industry for many years and choose two main businesses, but a few elders stood up to oppose it, but finally did not raise any objections to the candidate for the big shopkeeper proposed by the historian, at this time Su Caier stood up and saluted the elders, and took out a piece of paper and motioned for everyone to listen.

What is recorded on that piece of paper is the sales summary of the last two years, of which the latest cotton sales have accounted for more than half of the weaving sales, and the latter record is the cost of Richanglong since the adoption of large-scale new looms and steam power, as well as the expansion of the weaving mill in the past two years, the increase in personnel, and the beneficiary population of the sericulture industry.

This is already very telling, all the elders are silent, Richanglong is still a leader in the field of weaving, no one can shake the position, and after a series of improvements, weaving is still the most profitable business of Richanglong, and even in the land possession and the recognition of the general public, no one can match.

Therefore, it is definitely necessary to continue to increase investment in silk spinning and weaving, so the trade between Liao and Jin and the traders of Xixia is still the top priority, so Su Caier once again proposed to invite Xiao Ming to become the master of Richanglong as the big treasurer of Richanglong through equity merger.

Everyone focused their eyes on Xiao Ming at this time, Xiao Ming felt that it was time to make a statement, but before he could speak, Shi Siming stood up again and said: "If Richanglong can't focus on the porcelain industry, will we put all our energy on the smelting mill in the future?" So I'm against it! ”

Xiao Ming said: "Who said that in the future, Richanglong will turn his energy to the refinery of iron?" ”

Shi Siming was stunned! didn't know what to do, but Xiao Ming said to him: "You said that you want your son Shi Wenjing to be the big treasurer?" I've heard that people are smart, and I think it's possible! ”

As soon as his words came out, they immediately caused a commotion among everyone, and Su Cai'er was even more stunned, everyone wanted to hear what Xiao Ming had to say.

Xiao Ming asked everyone a question, he said: "Everyone, now Richanglong can develop and grow, whether it is weaving, porcelain burning, grain transportation, and paper printing, are they all because of the preferential policies for industry and commerce that the Song Dynasty has always adopted?" If the imperial court had changed its policy that day, what would have happened to Richanglong? ”

Everyone was surprised, no one had thought about this problem, Xiao Ming continued: "Don't say anything else, if the imperial court now advocates agriculture and does not allow the buying and selling of land, all land produced must be destroyed except for grain, and the imperial court is strictly thrifty, does not wear silk and satin, encourages silkworm farmers to cultivate the land, can make more profits, and give subsidies, at that time, what will you do?" ”

Even Su Bi was in a cold sweat when he asked this, and he asked in a trembling voice, "Will the imperial court really do that?" If this is the case, it will be over! ”

Xiao Ming nodded and said: "As a big business, you must not only have the ability to make profits but also have the ability to resist risks, what I want to mention today is two words, that is, 'group'!" At present, Gu's Refinery exists as a brand, but in terms of time, he already has four large iron factories, fifteen mines, and a lot of cement factories, glass manufacturing plants, and iron craft manufacturing factories below. If you say, how much money did your historian inject into Richanglong, it is great to make porcelain! But now I want to say that I can inject all the tens of millions of assets under me just now into Richanglong! ”

There was silence at the venue, no one expected that Xiao Ming's industry could roll to such an exaggerated number, let alone that Xiao Ming would say this, injecting tens of millions of assets into Richanglong, which whole Richanglong is not surnamed Xiao? But what does he mean by group?

Xiao Ming ignored the people below, he wanted to finish what he wanted to say in one breath, and he spent a night preparing to sell this whole set of plans, so what would happen if he didn't finish it?

"I'm not talking about the injection is not to seek control of the entire Richanglong, although it will be very beneficial to get control, but what I need is not Richanglong's assets, but his brand, and sales channels all over the country, after the merger of the two big firms, still under the brand of Richanglong, then our industry can cover weaving, steel, ceramics, food processing and transportation, cement and building materials, glass manufacturing, chemical manufacturing, daily necessities manufacturing, textile, printing and papermaking and other fields, so as to achieve the real ' Group's words to operate, at that time, the "group" of Richanglong will definitely have the right to want to be a political discourse! ”

After saying so much in one breath, Xiao Ming took a sip of tea, and everyone was digesting the terms he said about "group, discourse, channel, brand", and they all looked at him dumbfounded, but Su Bi said: "Is it really possible?"

"Of course," Xiao Ming said with certainty, he looked at Shi Siming and said, "You said that there are so many industries, does every industry need to have a big shopkeeper?" ”

Shi Siming realized the gap between himself and Xiao Ming this time, it was not the gap in his mind, it was the gap in his thinking about the entire consciousness, he sat in his chair and carefully pondered the content of Xiao Ming's speech.

Striking while the iron is hot, Xiao Ming decided to take advantage of the situation to throw out a few of his propositions, which are the eight-point plan, and also the result of his own last night, these eight propositions are called "Xiao Eight Points!" ”

The first point: Richanglong must promote cotton manufacturing in the next step, and begin to manufacture wool products, the drawings of the loom are provided by Xiao Ming, and the raw materials are more and more wool imported from Liao.

Article 2: Begin to diversify on a large scale, including the participation of a variety of sideline businesses, such as: tea, salt, medicinal materials, publishing, printing and papermaking, civil ceramics and building materials, etc.

Article 3: Start a large-scale overseas trade, but not rely too much on the city of Quanzhou and Guangzhou, Xiao Ming wants to seek to establish a city port in Hangzhou, and get control of it.

Article 4: Carry out the standardization of factories, and vigorously develop the construction of steel, cement, shipbuilding, glass, matches, chemical manufacturing, arsenals, pharmaceutical factories and other factories.

Article 5: Carry out talent reserves, popularize basic education, set up workshops, and at a time when government and civilian studies are very popular, do not carry out utilitarian examination-oriented education but oriented to practical education, such as medical halls and technical schools, etc., which is precisely implemented and presided over by the Mohists.

Article 6: The financial accounting is presided over by Shen Bei'er, the big tent of Richanglong, mainly to account for the finances of a number of firms and factories, and to establish an independent but financial approval system to eliminate waste.

Article 7: Reorganize the Senate, for the Song Dynasty of the shopkeeper top heaven system, the Senate of the original Changlong is a freak, Xiao Ming has no intention of changing too much, but the appropriate reorganization is necessary, that is, the use of the collegial system, the identity of the senator must have a term, must be elected below, and the person who supports the Senate is called the co-chairman!

Xiao Ming explained here: "In order to implement the whole set of plans to the end, contemptible people, let's serve as the first chairman, serve for five years, and be re-elected after five years!" ”

Article 8: Based on the brand of Richanglong, we began to try to financialize the operation of funds, to put it bluntly, we want to set up a big bank! Used for financing and profit, this is the most important thing, and it is also something that Xiao Ming has been planning for many years, in order to avoid everyone's difficulty in understanding the word "bank", Xiao Ming decided to use the name of Yinzhuang or Qianzhuang!

The above is Xiao Ming's famous "Xiao Eight Points!" "The hammers are one after another, and the people who hit them are directly a little unbearable, and it will not take half a day for these people in front of them to digest these things proposed by Xiao Ming! This is simply ahead of its time!
