Chapter 1302 Danzhou Propaganda
Liu Shang tossed and turned that night and hardly fell asleep. When he woke up the next day, he inevitably had two big dark circles under his eyes.Yu Xiaobao was taken aback when he saw it, and quickly asked him if there was any discomfort, and asked the old doctor in charge of medical and health affairs in the inspection team to give him a pulse diagnosis.Liu Shang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and it was impossible to tell the truth, so he could only infer that he had been traveling all the way for the past few days, probably because his body couldn't take it anymore.

Yu Xiaobao was silent for a moment before he said: "Then, Mr. Liu stays in the local area to recuperate for a few days, so don't force yourself to follow the rest of the itinerary. After recuperating well, you can take a boat back to Sanya by yourself."

Liu Shang didn't expect that he would be self-defeating by just making up an excuse, so he quickly waved his hand and said: "If you can't do it, it's important. Although the villain is a bit thinner, it's not so easy to fall down. Director Yu, don't worry, the villain will support you." Gotta live!"

Yu Xiaobao said: "There is a lecture arrangement for today, don't force yourself, can you really hold it?"

Liu Shang hurriedly patted his chest to promise that he would not lose the chain in the preaching activities.Yu Xiaobao was still worried, so he asked the doctor to prescribe a medicine for his body, and ordered the people in the guest house to go to the pharmacy to get him the medicine according to the prescription.Liu Shang couldn't refuse, so he had no choice but to thank him first.

Not long after, the owner of the pharmacy also rushed over with his doctor and assistants. It was said that a high-ranking official from Sanya who came to Danzhou to inspect government affairs was unwell. The tonic came in a hurry.The boss is also considered careful, afraid that there is no guy who decocts the medicine at the guest house, so he even asked the guy to bring the medicine jar.

"It's really good to be an official..." Liu Shang could only sigh sincerely when he saw such a scene.Although he also knows that he is not a high-ranking official of Haihan, but just a small person who was temporarily recruited to this inspection team. Enough to move him.

Of course, Yu Xiaobao also knew that these people had misunderstood, but he had a high position and authority, and he didn't bother to explain to the little people in the market, so he immediately asked the staff from the guest house to take the pharmacy group to the kitchen, and arranged a stove for them to cook. medicine.As for the related expenses, someone will naturally come forward to settle the settlement with the pharmacy, and it is not necessary to use the official position to take advantage of these ordinary people.For him, these trivial matters are far less important than Liu Shang's health. After all, the trade policy presentation in charge of Liu Shang is one of the important tasks of the inspection team, and the lack of this link will inevitably affect the completion of the task.

Originally, Liu Shang didn't have a good night's rest because of excessive anxiety. In fact, he didn't have any illness, let alone need to take medicine for treatment.But the current situation is beyond his control, he can only obey Yu Xiaobao's arrangement.

Not long after, Zhang Xin also came here to coordinate with Yu Xiaobao on the arrangement of today's lecture. Hearing that someone in the inspection team was sick, he also came to comfort Liu Shang.Liu Shang can only helplessly express once again that his health is fine and will not affect today's work arrangements.

After Zhang Xin left, Liu Shang felt a little frustrated when he thought about the way he nodded and bowed just now. Did he take the role of Haihan official too deep into the drama, why did he unconsciously begin to bow down to the high-ranking Haihan officials?This phenomenon is really scary, and we must stop it as soon as possible, otherwise, after a while, I am afraid that we will really be assimilated by this evil Haihan system.

After a lot of tossing, Liu Shang still didn't have time to take the medicine before departure, but the pharmacy owner guaranteed that the medicine would be sent to the venue as soon as the medicine was cooked, so as not to delay his illness.And Liu Shang is well aware of his physical condition, so naturally he doesn't care too much about such things.

The publicity activity at Danzhou Station was the one with the largest number of listeners during this trip. There were not only many representatives from the local business, cultural and political circles, but also foreign envoys and businessmen who recently participated in an arms fair in Danzhou. There are more than three hundred people.Coupled with the staff at the venue and the security personnel who maintained order outside, the total audience was at least five hundred.

The whole set of loudspeaker, microphone and battery that the inspection team specially brought out from Sanya finally came into use. It was set up and debugged by technicians at the venue last night, and today it only needs to be used directly on stage.However, Liu Shang had never used this kind of amplifying device before. After arriving at the venue, Xiaobao explained how to use it, but he didn't understand the principle at all.

After Liu Shang arrived in Haihan, he had seen too many strange things, but he had already gotten used to this novel feeling. He knew that this thing was probably some kind of black technology mastered by the people of Haihan, even if Yu Xiaobao If you are willing to reveal the principle, you must not understand it yourself, so you simply didn't open your mouth to inquire about the mystery.

"As you can see, there are many foreign businessmen including Daming present in today's lecture, so the content of trade should be as detailed as possible. You should slow down your speech and speak clearly, so as not to be confused Foreign businessmen don't understand." Yu Xiaobao didn't forget to give Liu Shang another warning before the opening.

Liu Shang didn't dare to be negligent, and quickly responded one by one.At this time, the owner of the pharmacy hurriedly brought the decocted medicine to the venue with his assistants, and Liu Shang could only hold his nose and drink it.In fact, what the doctor prescribed to him was nothing more than an ordinary prescription for treating a cold, and drinking it would not cause any harm to his body.

According to the practice of previous lectures, Zhang Xin, the local chief executive, still made the first appearance, explained the meaning and purpose of the lecture, and introduced the identities of the members of the inspection team.When he was introduced to Liu Shang, he didn't mention that he was temporarily caught by Yu Xiaobao as a substitute, but he was given the position of "Propaganda Department Officer".

Of course, Zhang Xin did not forget to do some publicity for the local area: "... After buying guns and armor locally, don't forget to take a break from your busy schedule and go around Danzhou City. The local food and scenery are also quite good. If you plan to buy houses and land in Danzhou, invest in farms, and set up academies, on behalf of the Danzhou Management Committee, I also welcome everyone to come. Of course, everyone will report my name Zhang Xin when the time comes...then there is no discount."

There was a burst of good-natured laughter from the audience. People who are capable of buying property and land locally understand that Zhang Xin is just joking. In fact, the Danzhou area has quite a lot of incentives for investment promotion, especially for investment in plantations and land. For long-term projects such as farms, Haihan will give great tax incentives, and will promise to purchase the output of these private farms and plantations at a reasonable price in the agreement.In the past few years after Danzhou changed hands, the area of ​​arable land has increased by two or three times compared with that of the Ming Dynasty. Most of the increased arable land area is plantations and plantations developed by the Haihan Ministry of Agriculture and foreign investors. private farm.

More and more foreign businessmen have realized in the process of dealing with Haihan that in the business cooperation with Haihan, in addition to agency sales, there are two other businesses that are also very profitable. One is that Haihan foreign trade is very dependent on Shipping, and the second is to invest in the development of plantations on the territory of Haihan.

When Haihan first engaged in plantation projects, except for a few die-hard followers such as Fu Ruifeng, most foreign businessmen still held a wait-and-see mentality and did not invest heavily in such projects.On the one hand, this is because they are worried about whether the agricultural technology of the Haihan people is as advanced as they boasted. On the other hand, they are also worried about Haihan's nationalized land policy. After all, almost all the land occupied by Haihan used to belong to Ming Dynasty. If one day Daming calls back, the funds and efforts invested in these places will be in vain, and they may be charged with collusion with foreigners or the like.

Later, as Haihan's national power gradually emerged, the experience of the plantation gradually gained recognition from the outside world.With the support of the Haihan Ministry of Agriculture, almost all the first batch of plantations operated by private investment have achieved quite good returns, and this kind of income is not completed in one year, but can last for several years, and the long-term return on investment The rate is quite impressive.

In addition, these projects are most favored by investors because of their small operating risks. Hainan Island under the rule of the Haihan people has basically been recognized as the most important place in the entire South China Sea, even in mainland China including Daming and Indochina Peninsula. , can be regarded as the safest and most stable place.There is basically no risk of war or man-made disasters when investing in Haihan, which can be said to be a condition that is difficult to meet in other places in the Far East at the same time.

Especially for businessmen from Daming, investing in a farm outside of Daming is almost equivalent to leaving a way out for themselves and their families overseas.In case the war in Daming intensifies and the imperial court can't come up with an effective way to control internal and external troubles, then at least you can go to Haihan to escape the war. Even if you can't take any property with you, you will still have your own property in Haihan Can provide for the family.From this point of view, the investment in Haihan is actually buying an insurance for the future of his family, and the protection of this investment is the most powerful armed force in the entire South China Sea. This long-term investment is also worthwhile for the protection promised by investors.What's more, in the business cooperation with Haihan, I haven't heard of anyone losing money.

Based on this consideration, many people decided to invest in various agricultural and forestry projects on Hainan Island after observing the situation for a period of time. relationship so that he can obtain Haihan's asylum when necessary in the future.

Although Danzhou is not as good as Haihan's current capital Sanya in terms of business environment, it also has its own advantages.After the Danzhou assassination case in 1631, Haihan cleared up a large number of disobedient landlords in Danzhou on the grounds of eliminating the chaotic party, and at the same time took a large number of unowned land into national ownership.Therefore, when Danzhou implements the plantation development plan, there will be very few disputes over the ownership of the land. As long as the funds are in place, investors can get thousands of acres of contiguous land for development at one time. It can also greatly reduce the initial development and construction costs.

Danzhou can successfully become one of the three municipal administrative units in Haihan, which is directly related to the regional prosperity brought by foreign investment. Although there are not as many foreign investors here as in Sanya, they are already A very substantial amount.

After Zhang Xin finished speaking and stepped down, Yu Xiaobao signaled Liu Shang to come on stage.Liu Shang had already given lectures elsewhere before, and he knew that this job was nothing more than reciting manuscripts, and he was good at storytelling and acting, so there was nothing to be nervous about.Immediately stood up, bowed slightly to Zhang Xin who came off the stage, and then appeared on the stage.

When Liu Shang walked to the podium, he still couldn't help looking at the vertical microphone on the table. Yu Xiaobao had told him before that as long as he spoke to this thing, he could make the whole world feel at a normal volume. The audience heard clearly, Zhang Xin's speech on stage just now has also confirmed this point.

Liu Shang took a breath, and then introduced himself: "I, Liu Shang, is currently working in the Propaganda Department of Haihan. Today, I will tell you about our country's recent trade policy..."

Although Liu Shang didn't take the time to memorize the manuscript these days, he has an excellent memory. After reading the manuscript twice last night and this morning, he was able to give a speech without it.Moreover, when he was a storyteller, he was used to being watched by the crowd, and he would not be nervous when he talked on stage. He would observe the audience's emotional reaction while speaking, and make adjustments to his speech.Even by professional standards, Liu Shang can be regarded as a good speaker.

Zhang Xin listened for a while, then turned his head and asked Xiaobao in a low voice: "Is this the newcomer recruited by the Propaganda Department this year?"

Yu Xiaobao nodded and said, "It's very new, and it was taken out by me during the induction training."

Zhang Xindao: "That means it hasn't been assigned yet? Later, I will tell President Ning to assign Liu Shang to Danzhou."

Yu Xiaobao shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it won't work. This Liu Shang is quite capable. After I go back this time, I will report his performance truthfully. At that time, most of the higher-ups will directly name important people and let him enter ministries to do things."

Zhang Xin sighed and said, "Fort Victory has wiped out all the talents, which makes it difficult for us to carry out work at the local level! Go back and report to your superiors, and assign some professionals to the local area!"

Yu Xiaobao smiled and said: "I will convey your opinion on my behalf, but I dare not complain to the chiefs like this. I probably can't help Liu Shang's distribution. If you really want someone at ease, then Better to send a telegram to the Executive Committee yourself."

Liu Shang, who was talking on the stage, never imagined that he had become a fragrant bun unknowingly, and a high-ranking official in Haihan had already named him and wanted to include him as a subordinate.
