After discussing the political affairs, it was afternoon, and he had a simple "working meal" with the people. Then Li Yuanqing had time to go back to the inner study and let Xiaolian have a cup of tea, carefully weighing the details and gains and losses.
In terms of government affairs, Li Yuanqing was not afraid of the leakage of these core secrets. He even encouraged more gentry and scholars to participate in the government affairs of Changsheng island.
Therefore, at this meeting, people from both the military and political sectors, including the military equipment workshop, attended the meeting together.
Of course, this is not to say that Li Yuanqing has "opened his heart" to the newly joined gentry.
The key point is that Changsheng island is an island. Because of its geographical advantages and congenital control conditions, Li Yuanqing absolutely controls the external traffic of Changsheng island. In this way, the outflow of information can be controlled to the greatest extent.
Even so, and having already made the gesture of "buying horse bones with thousands of gold", how can Li Yuanqing not allow himself to be more tolerant and magnanimous?
With more than 500 years of experience in the world, Li Yuanqing deeply understands that if Changsheng Island wants to prosper, it is obviously not enough to rely on his own efforts.
The best way is to let more people participate in it and let them integrate into the Changsheng island system. According to the location advantages of Changsheng Island, both sides can obtain practical benefits together.
At this time, Zhenjiang was eliminated, southern Liaoning and Dongjiang were flourishing, and the defense line of the later Jin Dynasty was further tightened. The two huge markets of Liaodong and southern Liaoning formed a huge vacuum.
Of course, because of the congenital conditions, southern and Eastern Liaoning have been almost no man's land, and in a short period of time, it is doomed to be unable to become a market for commodity dumping. However, southern Liaoning and Eastern Liaoning, especially Liaodong, have incomparable advantages over other provinces.
The most direct point is the medicinal materials of Liaodong.
The vast Changbai Mountain is near by, the dense primeval forest in Eastern Liaoning Province, and the Yalu River basin with abundant water system. Because of the love of nature and human beings, this land is full of endless treasures.
For example, ginseng, deer antler, bear paw, bear gall, mink, as well as many Chinese herbal medicines that Li Yuanqing can't name. Many of them are necessities for people's life.
In addition, Korea's most famous Korean ginseng, as well as many Korean specialties.
For a long time before, these precious materials were transferred through Zhenjiang City and then flowed to Guannei.
At this time, Zhenjiang has been abandoned by Li Yuanqing. How can Li Yuanqing waste this opportunity?
Of course, in this respect, Li Yuanqing is not without competitors, that is, Mao Wenlong and Dongjiang.
Unfortunately, with the financial resources of Mao Wenlong and Dongjiang at this time, how could they compare with a series of gentry like Li Yuanqing and Zhenjiang?
In addition, Mao Wenlong's reputation among the merchants was not good, especially in the Denglai and Denglai prefectures.
However, the most critical factor is the limitations of the times.
Mao Wenlong's ambition to serve the country was almost all concentrated on military affairs. Naturally, he could not give too much attention to these "low-grade" business transactions. In addition, Dongjiang had already started to attack the hinterland of Laozhai, which was the best time for Changsheng island to make efforts.
Such as Ren family, Qi family, such as the accumulation of previous, coupled with the support of Li Yuanqing, want to pick up the business before, do not need to spend too much effort.
As for North Korea, those small retail investors who eat inside out.
How could Li Yuanqing have too much pity for them?
Catch one kill one, catch two kill a pair!
Forced them to fear, fear, can only sell the goods in hand to Changsheng island.
With Li Yuanqing's influence in Dongjiang, at this time, who dares not to give Li Yuanqing face?
These "small retail investors" in North Korea are very difficult to make effective resistance, and they can almost be ignored.
However, in order to connect this line more quickly, Li Yuanqing also needs a good fulcrum.
After all, the distance between Changsheng island and Zhenjiang is still a little far. In addition, the land route is not smooth, so the transportation cost and risk will increase a lot.
After watching the sand table carefully for a long time, Li Yuanqing slowly stopped his eyes on an island at the mouth of the Yalu River.
That is Zhangzi Island.
Zhangzi Island is a small island, which is about ten or dozens of miles around. It has been abandoned for a long time and has no people to live in.
After Dongjiang occupied it, it served as a fulcrum to spy on the Liao land, where hundreds of soldiers were stationed.
However, with the relationship between Li Yuanqing and Mao Wenlong at this time, how could Mao Wenlong disagree with Zhangzi Island?
After thinking for a long time, Li Yuanqing vomited out a long breath. He came to the Kang beside him and sat down. He picked up a pen and paper and wrote quickly.
It has been more than an hour since the "planning" was finished. At this time, the door was suddenly snapped, and a young voice called out: "Dad, Dad, shopping, shopping."Li Yuanqing quickly came to open the door, but found that his eldest son, Li Dingbei, was looking forward to him.
Li Yuanqing couldn't help laughing. He picked up the boy and gave him a hard kiss on his face. "Boy, you're a man. How do you want to go shopping?"
Li Ding's northern dialect is not complete, but his small hand is forced to say: "Dad, ice sugar gourd. I'll have ice sugar gourd. Good food... "
Looking at Li Dingbei's lovely appearance, Li Yuanqing couldn't help laughing, "OK, OK. Dad will take you to eat sugar gourd now
At this time, Zhang yunniang, Qu minqiu and his party also quickly arrived, especially a few nannies, almost scared out of their souls.
See Li Yuanqing is holding Li Dingbei at this time, all people just slightly put down their heart, a few nannies quickly kowtow to apologize.
Zhang yunniang was also frightened and said, "Yuanqing, Dingbei is running too fast. I was stunned. The little thing came here. "
Thanks to Li Yuanqing's hard work last night, Zhang yunniang is very beautiful today. Her skin looks like she can be broken by blowing bullets. However, her baby son ran to the inner study. She was really shocked and her pretty face was pale.
Li Yuanqing laughed, but he didn't get angry. He said with a smile, "get up. After that, I'll give you some memory and take good care of the children. If this happens again, we will be punished with a heavy penalty. "
If a few nannies were granted amnesty, they quickly kowtow to Li Yuanqing, and then they got up and surrounded Li Dingbei.
Li Yuanqing said with a smile to Zhang yunniang and Qu minqiu: "yunniang, minqiu, go and prepare for me. Go to the gate of the mansion and wait for me. I've got a bit of chores here. I'll be right there after I've dealt with it. "
After thinking about it for a while, Li Yuanqing said again, "by the way, see if Baozhu wants to go. If she's not in any way, let's go and have a look. "
Zhang yunniang and Qu minqiu are busy smiling and nodding, taking a group of women and children to the front of the house.
Li Yuanqing took the "plan" that had just been written and came to the office of the sixth senior businessman in the front yard.
Shang Laoliu is staring at a few accounts room Mr. accounting books, see Li Yuanqing come over, he can't help but smile, "Yuanqing, how about? Have a good idea? "
Li Yuanqing also a smile, handed the plan in hand to the sixth hand of Shang Lao, "for the time being, so much. Brother Shang, take a look and we'll discuss it again. "
Shang Laoliu quickly glanced at him, but his eyes were not bright. "Zhangzi Island? Yuanqing, if you can take Zhangzi Island, it will be 80%. However, in terms of Qi family... "
How could Li Yuanqing not understand the meaning of Shang Laoliu? A light smile said: "brother Shang, Zhangzi Island, I will write to Mao Shuai immediately. As for Qi family? In a short time, let Qi family follow Ren's family first. "
Shang Laoliu nodded with a smile. In a short time, we can't let go of the private ship business. "
Renjia's main business is to purchase medicinal materials, while Qijia's main business is to operate a shipping company, belonging to the transportation industry.
But at this time, because of many conditions in Changsheng Island, the transportation industry is obviously not open. If the Qi family can go downstream, Li Yuanqing naturally doesn't mind giving them a bite to eat. On the contrary, if they don't open their eyes, Li Yuanqing naturally doesn't mind sending them to the hell to repent.
When Li Yuanqing was about to leave, Shang Laoliu slapped his brain and said, "Yuanqing, wait a minute. Look at my brain. It's really funny. Yuan Qing, there is another important thing, almost forgot to tell you. That's kerosene. In the aspect of ordnance workshop, higher purity kerosene has been refined. Even in the cold state of ice and snow, it can be easily ignited by only one Martian. However, there is still a shortage of raw materials. Yuanqing, you have to make up your mind about this matter. "
"Kerosene?"
Li Yuanqing was stunned, but nodded slowly for a moment.
Kerosene is oil, which has been used in the early Ming Dynasty.
However, these things are mostly used for fire and lighting, but it has never been used in military precedent.
After many wars, Li Yuanqing had already played the fire attack skillfully.
After refining and filtering impurities, the kerosene is undoubtedly the best combustion helper, which is dozens of times higher than the combustion supporting materials such as animal fat.
However, due to the limited conditions, this kind of treasure is not produced in Changsheng Island, and the army can only buy it from other places.
In Li Yuanqing's memory, the two most famous oilfields in China are Daqing Oilfield in Northeast China and Shengli Oilfield in Shandong Province.
As for Karamay in the northwest, even if the oil reserves are more abundant, it is too far away. Li Yuanqing can only think about it.
But even the area of Daqing Oilfield is almost impossible for Li Yuanqing to touch.
The only effective way is in Shandong, where Shengli oilfield belongs.
In later generations, Li Yuanqing vaguely remembered that there were also a lot of oil reserves in the Bohai Bay. However, according to the level of science and technology at that time, even if there were, Li Yuanqing could only do nothing to exploit it.In the Shengli oil field area, Li Yuanqing could only "sneak into the village, not the shooters" because of the strong power of Yuan Keli, governor of Denglai.
"Let's go according to the original process. It's no harm to spend more money on the way of merchants in Denglai. Be sure to stock up more. " Li Yuanqing whispered to Shang Laoliu.
Shang Laoliu nodded quickly, "Yuanqing, don't worry. I will do it as soon as possible. "
Li Yuanqing nodded and slapped Laoliu on the shoulder with a smile. In the evening, let's have a good drink
Shang Laoliu couldn't help laughing. Yuanqing, we haven't settled down for a long time and have a drink. "
