Timothy Li said: "Didn't we get the right to mine coal mines in the way of official supervision and foreign management, why don't we open a steel factory" Xuan Yuemeng smiled and shook his head, "It's not as simple as you think, the Qing government is not strict with coal mine management, there are small coal kilns everywhere, we also provide them with coal mines for free, and they don't need much, they don't do the same thing at all, steel is different, the Qing State adopts a monopoly on salt and iron, and it depends on these two to make money, otherwise, Which foreign firm did you see that opened a steel mill in China" Timothy Li sighed, "So, we don't have any way at all" Young Master Meng smiled and said: "It's not that there is no way at all, it's just that this place is not suitable for otherwise, how can I get a small shipyard first, it is mainly opened as a technical school, you can try to build some small barges from small boats to benefit, first avoid the British and French giant ships, and don't stimulate them In this way, you can seize the small mechanical steamship market of the entire Qing Kingdom as soon as possible, This market is no longer small. ”Timothy Lee was pleasantly surprised: "Mr.
Yuemeng, I found that you have changed, and you are now unwilling to stimulate Britain and France, which is very good." ”Young Master Meng laughed, "What do you mean I've changed, I didn't want to stimulate them from beginning to end, but if we want to develop, we will inevitably stimulate them After the last bloodbath of the Japanese and the British, they must be waiting to find our stubble now, if they catch any more sore spots that hinder British industry and commerce, they will definitely report to the British government When the British government wants to clean up us, our Klinsmann foreign firm will really not be able to withstand it, do you think Germany, or the United States, Will it be right to fight a country for the sake of our little foreign company?"
Timothy Lee nodded, "Then I can rest assured." ”Young Master Meng smiled: "Don't worry, what do you think I'm a reckless man, I only know how to move knives and guns at every turn, we are secretly developing in the cracks, so naturally we have to be careful." ”Timothy Lee smiled: "Yes, yes, yes, the secret development in the cracks, this sentence is very good." ”Xuan Yuemeng smiled: "Mr.
Timothy Lee, is there anything else" Timothy Li smiled: "No." ”Timothy Li had just turned around, and suddenly turned back again, "By the way, Mr.
Yuemeng, I want to tell you a good news, recently, not only have Chinese companies come to our concession development zone to buy commercial land, but there are also Chinese companies that want to buy land and build factories in our industrial zone, there are several." ”Xuan Yuemeng was pleasantly surprised: "Yes, this is great, I said earlier, there will always be Chinese people who will come" Timothy Li said with a smile: "It's that our price is too high, otherwise, there would have been Chinese companies coming in to invest, this kind of business, are all big businesses." ”Xuan Yuemeng said with a smile: "There is no way to do business, of course, you have to pay attention to strength, if you rely on discounts and charity, it is not a journey to help the commercial development of the Qing Dynasty, there should be a few small businesses without strength, or even a dozen."
Joining forces, or directly affiliated with a powerful firm like our Klinsmann & Co., can form a competitive advantage. ”Timothy Li nodded, "In a few days, the business that built a factory in the industrial zone will also hold a big opening ceremony, maybe invite your famous actors here to sing, and there will be dragon and lion dances, whatever, will you go" Xuan Yuemeng nodded, "I will go, Chinese set up factories in our industrial zone, this first, I must be the first." ”Timothy Li nodded and said, "Okay, I will tell you that you are too famous now, and many people who invest in us want to visit Mr.
Yuemeng." ”Xuan Yuemeng smiled bitterly, "It seems that I am still not low-key enough, you just say that I am not free, I didn't want to meet people to socialize, and I will solve the entertainment matter at your level in the future, if you are also annoyed, or can't get out, just leave it to those compradors to do, not every customer has to do it himself, otherwise you will die of exhaustion sooner or later." ”Timothy Li nodded, "Although the speed of our business has slowed down, the speed of investment has gone up, and I am getting busier and happier every day." ”Young Master Meng smiled: "Then congratulations on being busier in the future." ”After Timothy Lee left, Master Meng jumped twice in the same place, and was in a very happy mood, this step is of little significance for making money, but for the long run, the technology of the shipyard is of great significance, in this era, it has been exposed to the edge of heavy industry, so that Klinsmann Foreign Company has taken a big step forward in technology.Young Master Meng asked Dali to clean up a building next to the shipyard, which was originally planned to run a middle school, because the middle school was not possible to get up for the time being, so it was given to the technical school first, as a place to train skilled workers, and the students here took turns to learn theoretical knowledge every day, and participated in factory labor at other times, providing all kinds of apprentice workers for the shipyard.Young Master Meng is planning to let the more than 30,000 workers of Klinsmann have the opportunity to receive a little education, from which in order to select the excellent 500 outstanding workers, in order to send to the United States to prepare, this teaching system integrates teaching, learning and practice, looking at a hundred years later, it is also a very elite system.Compared with these foreign technicians, the local craftsmen are almost all wasted, and now it is the age of machinery, and then relying on manual equipment, they can't keep up with the development of the times, Young Master Meng and Xuan Yuewu are in the Seiko workshop of the shipyard.Xuan Yuewu was pleasantly surprised: "Yuemeng, I really don't regret giving up the imperial examination at all now, what I have learned in the past two months, I think it is more useful than the past ten years." ”Xuan Yuemeng smiled and nodded, "You know all these equipment" Xuan Yuewu smiled: "I can drive nuts, do you say I know it" Young Master Meng stretched out his little chubby paw and gave him a thumbs up, "Brother, you will let you be responsible for leading the team to study in the United States in the future, and now the affairs of the technical school will be handed over to you to be responsible" Xuan Yuewu said in surprise: "Is it really my job" Young Master Meng smiled: "Remove the word "yes, during the time you are in business, your processing task is a small steam engine, It's a pity that we don't have our own steel mill, we can only do some small equipment processing, as soon as possible with the foreigners' imported equipment to grab the market, the foreigners are not tight, the price is outrageously high, and they don't plan to do business with the small businessmen of the Qing Dynasty. ”Xuan Yuewu nodded and said: "I know, how much to produce first" Young Master Meng smiled: "Five hundred, at most that, it's good to have two units a month, the key is not so many materials." ”Xuan Yuewu Khan, "Then you still say that five hundred and two units a month, isn't it at most twenty units a year, how many years does it take to five hundred, more than twenty years" Young Master Meng smiled: "Who asked you to ask me" Xuan Yuewu scratched the back of his head, "Then I'm not used to asking you" Young Master Meng smiled bitterly, you are all used to asking me, who should I ask Actually, he is very slim many times.is developing, however, it's really too slow, the most important thing is to suffer from gains and losses, every step, I am afraid of making a mistake, and the scope is too small, the land in the American Concession is expensive, it is impossible to develop large-scale factories, let him go to the land outside the American Concession to develop large-scale factories, he really doesn't dare, one day the Qing court is happy, if the property confiscated to him, isn't it stepping on the Young Master Meng thought of the right question again, if there is a giant bull's background, it would be good if he could ignore the threat of the Qing court, It's best to be able to get in touch with the royal estate, and no one will confiscate the royal property, Young Master Meng suddenly felt that if Zeng Siping, his little fiancée was a princess.As a colt, he can let go of the bold work At the beginning, he still felt that Zeng Siping's identity was quite noble, but now it seems that Zeng Siping, Li Jingshou, these girls are noble, and they are all okay, this is an era when Manchus use bloodline to control the Han people, since they can't kill the Manchus all at once, they still have to honestly lie down under others.After that, Young Master Meng spent most of his time in the industrial area, sometimes going to the shipyard, sometimes going around, occasionally going to Dashu Hutong, listening to the old master's lectures, and Zeng Siping, Li Jingshou, Zhou Xuexi, Wu Baochu, Sophia and they went to class together.Life is also fulfilling.Since the last time Young Master Meng thought about Zhao Qingluo, and Zhao Qingluo clearly rejected him, he no longer talked to Zhao Qingluo, just like a real working relationship, Young Master Meng During this time, he was still like a little adult.It seems that he has really become a manager of this development zone.He has gradually become accustomed to this kind of life in the late Qing Dynasty, with electric lights, comfortable accommodation, exquisite food, and a leisurely life.The opportunity is still very pitiful to the cute young master.Two months later.The weather gradually got hotter, and Young Master Meng was naked, revealing a fat body, sitting on a recliner, and Xu Xiangzhi fed him watermelons.Xuan Zonglu said with a smile: "Okay, okay, the little belly that I have eaten is bulging" Young Master Meng smiled: "In a year, only summer can be eaten, alas, but unfortunately there is no greenhouse to grow vegetables and fruits." ”Xuanzong Luqi said, "What is the greenhouse" Young Master Meng sighed, thinking about how to explain, "It is a greenhouse made of plastic to make the temperature of the land the same in winter as in spring and autumn, so that you can eat vegetables and fruits out of season in winter, and you can eat watermelon in winter." ”Xuan Zonglu laughed, "This kid, I don't know how long his brain is, he has some weird ideas all day long, he eats winter things in winter, and he eats summer things in summer, what's so out of season" t1706231537:
