Chapter 1474 Investment and Development

He Li had already considered the cause and effect clearly when he came here. Haihan ran for thousands of miles and worked so hard to grab Liaodong. It was definitely not for charity, and it was very unlikely that he would take the initiative to return control to Daming.And even if Daming knew about the military tactics that Haihan implemented in Liaodong, the possibility of using force against him would not be too great. Otherwise, he would have just sent troops to deal with the Jinren before. .Therefore, what Sha Xi said just now, He Li thinks that he is just alarmist. It is unlikely that a large-scale battle will break out between the two countries. In this way, the development of Liaodong is actually the next focus. Haihan will definitely try to start from In the process of operating Liaodong, recovering the cost of military operations and perhaps attracting the injection of external capital will also be one of Haihan's business strategies.

Who will belong to Liaodong in the end is not something He Li is qualified to worry about, but what kind of real benefits Liaodong can bring to southern merchants, this is what He Li must be concerned about.Therefore, his question did not involve the relationship between the two countries at all, but went straight to the topic and asked whether Shaxi could open up the local trade authority.

"Boss He seems to be eager to invest locally!" Sha Xi personally greeted these businessmen, and the ultimate goal was to pull them to land here in Liaodong, and use their advantages in maritime transport capacity to seek benefits for the development of Liaodong.Now that He Li jumped out on his own, it saved him a lot of saliva.

Shaxi immediately explained to everyone: "Liaodong was a place that used to be rich in products, but after the Jin people occupied it, the various infrastructures here were severely damaged, and the fields were basically deserted. After our country took over, only everything We have all started from scratch, so as long as they are friends who are willing to join the development of Liaodong, no matter what their nationality is, we are all welcome.”

He Li nodded again and again, while thinking in his heart that Mr. Sha is so slick, he speaks beautifully, but there is no substantive content at all, and it seems that he is not the object of such an easy routine.It's just that the merchants from the south are not so easy to fool, so I'm afraid I won't get through this kind of scene.

Sure enough, another person immediately urged: "Can Master Nasha explain the details of the development of Liaodong in detail? I can also follow the rules and contribute to the reconstruction of the local area."

Sha Xi said: "Are you all so impatient? Then I don't think so. It's already time to eat, so let's change the place. Let's talk while eating!"

Haihan’s shopping mall culture is in the same line as Daming’s. It has always been a customary habit to talk about things at dinner tables and banquets, and it is not the first time for these southern maritime merchants to deal with Haihan people. After entering the small tea shop, a few carriages had already been transferred outside. After everyone got on the carriage, the carriage drove straight to the nearby Fort Lushun.

Although Sha Xi came to Liaodong to rule for a short time, after he took office, he mainly focused on the infrastructure projects in the surrounding area of ​​Port Arthur. Xi also arranged for people to transplant trees on both sides of the official road.

However, the renovation work inside Lushun Fort has not yet been completed, and most of the areas are still under construction. Sha Xi did not care about it.Although he was not in Lushun at the time, he also generally knew that the Lushun Fort captured by Haihan was almost in ruins. More than [-]% of the various houses and living facilities in this fort were newly built after Haihan occupied the place.

The labor force in the entire Haihan Occupied Area is a scarce resource. Even if Shaxi’s hands and eyes are open to the sky, there is no extra manpower to build banquet halls and other facilities in Lushun Fort, so the place where he entertains these southern merchants can only be placed in the fort. Military canteen.Of course, since a character like Sha Xi presided over the reception, he would definitely not use a large pot of meals to send these guests. Sha Xi specially let his personal cook go to the kitchen to preside over the work, and got a standard table of sea food. Chinese style entertains everyone.

Since the fleet had arrived at Port Lushun last night, Shaxi's chef had half a day to prepare the banquet, and it was a decent one.Although the environment was a little rough, with the presence of a high-ranking official like Sha Xi, the southern businessmen did not dare to dislike the reception of this high level.

The Haihan official who accompanied Sha Xi to attend this event was Liu Shang, who was recruited by the military to Liaodong earlier, and later sent to Lushun Fort in the rear to be in charge of logistical affairs.

For Liu Shang, since he joined the office in Sanya, he has dealt with Daming businessmen on behalf of Haihan officials a lot, and he is familiar with it.Shaxi asked him to come over today to participate in the reception work, and naturally he also took a fancy to his work experience in this area.

Since Liu Shang came to Liaodong, he has really seen the power of Haihan's force, his position and mentality have become more and more thorough, and he has really put himself in the position of a Haihan official to handle affairs and consider issues, and his performance has also been praised. Happy recognition.Although he is still an official recruited by the military in terms of administrative establishment, he has quietly become a subordinate official under the direct command of Shaxi in actual work.

I have to say that Liu Shang's life is really good, wherever he goes, he can meet noble people who push him, intentionally or unintentionally.When I was in Sanya, I met Jiang Han and Chang Degao when I was a storyteller, so I was lucky enough to get into the official Haihan organization, and then I got the appreciation of Yu Xiaobao by accident and took him around Hainan Island. After gilding the resume, he jumped from the bottom of the propaganda department and entered the Youth League.After being sent to Shandong, although he encountered some dangers in Majiazhuang, in the end Zeng Xiaowen and Chen Yixin removed him from the suspect list and issued him an officially certified good person card, completely whitewashing his identity.After being transferred from Shandong to Liaodong, whether in the army or in the rear now, Liu Shang has been able to mix things up like a duck in water and is quite comfortable.

Now Shaxi is quite satisfied with his performance at work, and even mentioned more than once that he intends to take him from the military and stay in Lushun to focus on local development.Today, let him participate in the reception of the carrier from the south, and it is for him to come forward to contact the other party to invest in local affairs.

Of course, Shaxi can also discuss these matters with the southern businessman in person, but once he comes forward, there will be less room for manoeuvre.But to Liu Shang to handle, many things can be handled more flexible.This kind of doorway, Sha Xi, needless to say, Liu Shang also knows it well, and maintains a tacit understanding of his superiors and subordinates. This is one of the abilities that Sha Xi sees in Liu Shang.

Sure enough, after three rounds of drinking, another impatient businessman raised the previous question, wanting to know what specific investment promotion plans and related rules there are in Liaodong.This time, there is no need for Sha Xi to answer in person, Liu Shang took the initiative to take this question down: "As for the investment promotion plan in the Liaodong area, the chiefs already have a comprehensive idea. If you want to know more, Liu will simply say Say."

When everyone heard the show, they put down their chopsticks and wine glasses, and listened to Liu Shang's explanation of what they were most interested in at the moment.

In fact, the formulation of the investment promotion plan is basically Sha Xi's idea. The military generals are currently directing the confrontation with the Houjin army in the north, and the project of rebuilding the Jinzhou isthmus defense line. I really can't tell much about the development and construction of the rear. .In addition, the meaning of the executive committee was to let Sha Xi come to Liaodong to handle the development affairs. In order to avoid suspicion, the military could not directly intervene, so it simply handed over the full authority to Sha Xi to handle it.Sha Xi knew that Liu Shang's mouth was also quite good, and he was fully capable of explaining the work. He had communicated with him beforehand and handed over the task to him.

"Since all of you are the carriers recruited by our Haihanguo, the sea transportation capacity is an innate advantage for those who want to invest and operate in Liaodong, and the projects we want to attract investment will also be considered as much as possible. At this point, make the most of what you have on hand.”

Liu Shang had already prepared the draft in his heart, and he talked to the crowd: "There are many productions in Liaodong that are not available in the south. As long as it can be shipped to the south at a lower cost, the rest will only make more money and make less money. This is the problem. The business that my country is going to operate in Liaodong is generally based on this guiding ideology. This is mainly divided into two categories, one is agriculture-related, including various plantations and farms, and the other is supporting services category, such as shops that provide local people with food, clothing, housing and transportation. You can choose the appropriate business category according to your own situation.”

Someone asked Liu Shang: "I heard that the people here have been emptied by gold thieves. If you want to do these transactions, where did the hired workers come from, and who can you sell the goods to?"

If the local population does not have enough basic population, there will be no system of consumption and circulation, and the military alone obviously cannot revitalize the economic situation here, so this question can be considered to be reasonable.

Liu Shang's eyes touched Sha Xi's, and seeing the other party's affirmative expression, he explained to the man: "The golden thief really took all the local people abducted, but after our country captured this place, they began to move to Dongjiang Town, which was relocated overseas. The soldiers and civilians have moved back in batches, and more than [-] people have been resettled in the vicinity of Lushun one after another. What you worry about will not become a problem that troubles everyone."

Everyone was a little surprised when they heard the news. Haihan was already an unconventional operation to allow the Ming army in Dongjiang Town to participate in the Liaodong operation. After the battle, he even planned to move the overseas Dongjiang Town military and civilians back to Liaodong. Aren't you really afraid that the people in Dongjiang Town will take advantage of the opportunity and come back to the nest?

As if he knew what everyone was thinking, Liu Shang continued to explain: "The combat troops in Dongjiang Town are currently deployed on the northern front, and their family members are stationed near Lushun, and they are currently building new villages under our organization. And began to reclaim the land. I believe it is more important for them to have their own homeland than to rush to distinguish which country the land they cultivate belongs to.”

He Li also felt that what Liu Shang said had some truth. He heard that the soldiers and civilians in Dongjiang Town have been living on the overseas deserted island for a long time. For these people, the chance of survival may even be more important than nationality.Having said that, recovering lost ground for the country has been achieved, at least in theory.Thinking of this level, He Li suddenly realized that Haihan had let the soldiers and civilians of Dongjiang Town move back to Liaodong, partly to make the outside world recognize that Liaodong had returned to Daming's control.

As for whether this batch of soldiers and civilians in Dongjiang Town who returned to Liaodong would still be loyal to Daming and obey the orders of the imperial court, the answer seems to be obvious.Haihan people are so shrewd, how can they be stupid enough to raise tigers?There must be some way to control Dongjiang Town, and it will be moved back to Liaodong for resettlement.He Li even thought pessimistically that the once famous Dongjiang Town might only have a shell left, and Haihan wanted to use this shell to complete the legal control of Liaodong.Maybe the Dongjiang Town troops who participated in the war were actually just a certain unit of the Haihan Army who changed their banner.

Although He Li's idea is not perfect, it is not too far from the truth. It is true that the army participating in the war belongs to Dongjiang Town, but its training and equipment are provided by Haihan. In this new army, Haihan's brand is no less deep than Daming's.

However, this topic was quickly brought up by Liu Shang, who began to explain the local policies on taxation and apportionment to them.These are all information that is closely related to the interests of investors, and immediately let the attention of businessmen skip the previous sensitive topics.While listening, everyone began to think secretly, how to operate in order to avoid tax reasonably and increase the income that the business can obtain.

Liu Shang looked at these people with blurred eyes, he had already guessed their calculations, and he was secretly amusing. He had been in Haihan for a long time, and he knew very well that the relevant departments of Haihan had carefully considered when formulating these policies, and that these measures did not The policies are based on the practical experience summed up by the southern colonies after many years of operation. How can it be so easy to take advantage of the loopholes.These businessmen just need to invest money to do business honestly. If they manage well for a few years, they will definitely be able to get rich and rich, but if someone really intends to test Haihan's bottom line, they will be afraid of stealing chickens and not losing money. Meter.

This luncheon lasted from noon to the afternoon because of the introduction of investment promotion. Later, Shaxi said that he had official business and left first.At this time, everyone had lost their appetite, so Liu Shang simply ordered to withdraw from the banquet and put some tea, and then slowly discuss the details of the investment promotion measures with these businessmen.Although no projects were finalized on the spot during the half-day discussion, Liu Shang could also feel the investment enthusiasm of these businessmen, and obviously did not want to miss the undeveloped virgin land of Liaodong.
