The Ministry of War Shang Xuyi first jumped out to drink "absolutely not! Galeries Lafayette sold the General Manufacturing Bureau and the Bureau of Shipping, but where will our ships, guns and ammunition come from in the future? After these troops, the tooth tiger and even the people may not be able to shock! "
Aside from Rong Lu, "Lafayette’s slaves are also somewhat inappropriate. The special shipping administration is now the governor of Fujian Province in official enterprise. If an official in the shipping administration is also the manufacturing general administration, there are also many officials who are also western consultants. How to deal with these?"
Without a word, I replied, "Lord Xu, Lord Rong Lu, and Lord Wang have said that these two bureaus will cost us more than one million taels of silver every year. Now our financial situation is so tight that it is not appropriate to make such waves. Even though we are now in these two factories, don’t we buy guns and warships from the West? What’s the difference and earn a lot of money? At the same time, we can save a lot of money. How much equipment can we buy?"
Xu Tong, a college student, also echoed "the two adults who are in charge of Galeries Lafayette are now a chicken rib. It’s a pity that now there is just such an opportunity. Zhang Jian will spend huge sums of money to buy millions of silver. Galeries Lafayette is not so easy to take out such a large sum of classics. Once Zhang Jian buys it, where is it unnecessary to wage war? At least we don’t worry about Zhang Yi attacking us, and in this way, we can raise 12 million silver at least in the next three to five years. This money can be used for people’s livelihood, mining and setting up factories to consolidate national defense, and it is absolutely sure to make a profit without losing money! Li Hongzhang has been in charge of the ocean for decades and thinks it is feasible. I think it is absolutely feasible! "
Cixi questioned, "How can Chinese officials arrange for Chinese consultants to deal with them once the two bureaus are sold?"? These things need to be prepared for a charge. Rong Lu is really reasonable, otherwise it will easily lead to disputes. Xu Tong mused, Galeries Lafayette can negotiate with Zhang Yi first. Since Zhang Yi bought two bureaus, it is certain that Chinese and technical workers will be taken away with Western consultants. Zhang Yi can also negotiate with those officials and go directly to them. Zhang Yi can also make some compensation for the children. Since the negotiators want to negotiate, they can try to see where Zhang Yi’s bottom line is to strive for the best interests. Cixi nodded, in this case, this matter will be handed over to Duan.
Chapter five hundred Zhang Jian was overjoyed
Yuanfengtian Zhang Yi finally received the Beijing newspaper from Li Hongzhang.
Zhang Yi laughed after seeing the newspaper and cried, "How about Shaochuan and Xiang? How’s it going? More than half of this matter has been successful. If we want to start negotiations, we will have already included Jiangnan Manufacturing General Administration and Fuzhou Shipping Bureau! "
Tang Shaoyi wry smile way "you are really happy, but I’m worried. I’m going to throw it in once I turn my eyes. You spend money so fast. I haven’t reacted yet. How do you put the money together? Don’t always search for that group of Shanxi merchants. Now Shanxi merchants have already put all their money on two railways, and they have some investments. Their hands are running out of liquidity."
Zhang yi laughed. "Shaochuan, who said I’m going to hit Joe’s master? Shanxi merchants are short of money now, but don’t forget that we still have Shengjing Bank. Now Shengjing Bank has covered all provinces in China and branches have been opened in Frankfurt and new york. Now Shengjing Bank is not comparable to what it was three years ago. Don’t say that taking out millions of silver from them is to take out tens of millions of silver in one breath. Qiao Yingxia will never hesitate. They are afraid that their funds have exceeded 100 million! "
Tang Shaoyi surprised. "What are you going to let Shengjing Bank pay the money? Don’t forget that these millions of taels of silver are not a small sum of money. Can you afford their interest? "
Zhang Yi replied, "I can’t afford to pay for anything. When the two bureaus get it, I will form a new military corps, put the research department of guns and ammunition of the General Administration of Manufacturing in our arsenal, and let the arsenal pay for this part to buy the remaining shipyards, reorganize the shipping administration and establish our Jinzhou Shipping Administration! Moreover, the Bureau of Shipping will invite the public to invite a skilled manager to operate independently, and even allow him to manage the technology and share the shares to emulate the western mode of operation! Don’t worry, once the western company transportation model is introduced, our shipping group will find it hard to imagine the vitality in generate, and this investment will be earned back to us as soon as possible! "
Liu Buchan sink a way "firm you want to ship administration group independently? Is this feasible? All businessmen are mercenary. Once they cut corners when we build warships, our losses will be great and how can we control the shipping administration without official supervision? "
Zhang yi laughed "control? Why should we control the shipping group? What I want is for him to grow up independently. Don’t you know why things made by the General Administration of Manufacturing and the Bureau of Shipping for so many years are more expensive in Chengdu than in the West? The two bureaus are full of people who are in charge of taking money, and there are not many skilled workers. It’s a damn if the things produced by such factories are not high. Besides, it’s expensive for them to buy raw materials from abroad, and then it’s not expensive for those people to peel them twice. "
Liu Buchan thoughtful nodded not to talk.
Zhang Yi went on to say, "We set up a shipping group company to cut off all the officialdom departments and want to stay idle with the help of the real story. I’m sorry that the shipping group doesn’t keep such people! I will give the board of directors of the general manager department of the future shipping administration a supervisory power, and the general manager will only get an annual salary of 50 yuan. His income comes from the annual profit dividend of the shipping administration. With this, he will definitely see the shipping administration and have a good rest assured. "
Liu Buchan said with a wry smile, "Do you want our warships to be purchased from the shipping administration group after you decide?"
Zhang Yi laughed. "Why not? If you don’t pay for things, people will eat and drink?"
Liu Buchan said, "Why can’t the old man afford their warships? We don’t have that many naval forces."
Zhang Yi replied, "Don’t worry, Xiang, I think you promised that the naval force will maintain a growth rate of 20% every year in the next five to ten years. Now your naval force is two million and two thousand in the next ten years, and your army will skyrocket to * * * two million. What are you worried about then? With a lot of money, if you want to buy a warship, you will directly drop the money and someone will come and grab it! "
Tang Shaoyi said, "In this case, do you want to produce civilian ships at the same time as the Western Shipyard?"
Zhang Yi replied, "Of course, otherwise, it will never be easy to live on the basis of naval procurement. They must support themselves every year without naval procurement, and we can earn profits back. Otherwise, why should I pay dividends to the general manager?"
Liu Buchan took a deep breath. This president is trying to open up financial resources in the name of navy. This is not spending state money. This is building a cash cow for money-making machines.
Zhang Yi went on to say, "Now that the Qing government has agreed to start negotiations, we will organize people to go to the sea to start business negotiations with them. This matter will be made by Ji Zhi’s special envoy Xiang, so don’t show up. Let several brothers accompany Ji Zhi to take a trip from the Commercial Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to form a negotiating team. Be sure to bring the General Administration of Manufacturing and the Bureau of Shipping!"
Zhang Jian asked, "You need to tell me a final price. How much silver can we accept at the highest price? Now the two bureaus have about how much assets so that I can start negotiations to safeguard our interests to the greatest extent." Zhang Yi said, "I have raised 7 million and 2 million silver here. We can accept the price, that is, 7 million and 2 million silver, but I used to be all equipment engineers. Skilled workers have to be brought back to Jinzhou, and none of them have official titles. We can give them some compensation appropriately to keep back and forth in the negotiations. You are an expert, and you have never fallen into the wind in the face of foreigners. Let go of your hands and do it. I support you! " Zhang Jian nodded and said, "In that case, I’m going to prepare for this two days and leave for Haijian the day after tomorrow. Don’t worry, I will definitely bring you back a surprise!"
Chapter five hundred and eleven Money makes the mill push the ghost.
On the third day, Zhang Jian led a business negotiation team and went straight to the sea. Zhang Yi’s cards had already told Zhang Jian, and his heart was emboldened. In the past two days, he searched for information from the Fuzhou Shipping Bureau of Jiangnan Manufacturing General Administration over the years. How many things are produced by two factories every year? How many silver products are required to be paid by the court every year? Zhang Jian received very well. Please invite Zhang Peilun to go straight to the sea with the big files from Anhui Li Hongzhang. Zhang Jian was fully prepared.
Compared with Zhang Jianduan’s county, Wang Yi’s difference is beyond measure. The Prime Minister Shi Shiran came to Haima by ship and fell into the entertainment of officials in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces.
Zhang Jian is not in a hurry, just waiting for the drama to be played.
Finally, after three days, I was greeted and sent. After listening to the flattery of local officials, Yi finally settled down. But after a circle, tens of thousands of taels of silver have been obtained. In this respect, I am afraid that few people in China have more means than him.
Zhang Jian didn’t bring any entourage. Only one person called a rickshaw and sent himself to Yita Mansion.
At this time, the mansion has already been surrounded by heavy troops.
Zhang Jian just came to the door when the guards stopped him.
Zhang Jian took out an ingot of silver from his arms and said, "Mr. Qian has worked hard. Please take it to buy some drinks."
Snowflakes cost twelve ounces of silver. At that time, the guard’s eyes were worth it. "I don’t know what brings you here, sir?"
Zhang Jian said with a smile, "Mr. Qian, please take the trouble to tell the report that the old friend of the court came to visit us in the Sino-Japanese War."
The guard hesitated and said, "Good Lord, please wait a moment for me. I don’t know if the old prince will meet you."
Zhang Jian nodded and waited for an answer here.
Wang Yi, the county magistrate in the mansion, heard the report from the guards and frowned tightly. Who is this?
Suddenly, I felt a shock in my heart. Mountain Zhang Jian Zhang Jizhi straight? He’s the top scholar of the Golden Academy, which was hand-picked by the Queen Mother of the Third Class in the Sino-Japanese War. Is this guy crazy to come here at such a sensitive time?
Yi asked urgently, "I asked you if that person had anyone with him?"
The guard replied at once, "Old Master Hui made a rickshaw by himself and no one followed him."
Yi Shen said, "Well, you can go to the cashier’s office later and get fifty taels of silver. Today, nothing is allowed, or I’ll ask you to move your head and listen to it."
The guard was startled and quickly fell to his knees. "Don’t worry, old Lord, I will definitely forget this matter!" "
Yi said, "Go and ask an old gentleman to come here for me!"
In a moment, Zhang Jian came to the room and sat on the sofa waiting for him.
Zhang Jian fuels, "Ha ha ha, old report, it’s always been good for you and me to leave for several years."
Yi got up from the sofa and said, "Mr. Ji Zhi is TOEFL, and the King of Galeries Lafayette is doing well. I wonder what advice Mr. Ji Zhi has when he comes here at this time?"
Zhang Jian said with a smile, "Don’t you think it’s natural for my elders and my mentor, Mr. Weng, to visit you for many years?"
Without a big laugh "very good! Season straight you have a heart. "
