    The reason why politicians become figures is that although they are shameless at certain times, they can always fulfill their promises to the extreme.  After Liang Shiyi counterattacked, in order to express his gratitude to Zhang Zuolin for his idea of ??"giving help in times of need", he took the initiative to accept the second benefit proposed by Zhang Hanqing.

    Isn¡¯t it just investment?  With a pair of "money" eyes trained in many years of economic management work, Liang Shiyi certainly knew that building coal mines and iron mines in Fengtian was a sure profit, and no one else played the role of "talker" in Fengtian except Zhang Zuolin.  Replaceable.  It¡¯s not like the wealthy men from the communication and energy department headed by him have never thought of investing in the Northeast, and they have made some gains here and there. However, given that the Japanese are disrupting the situation and the risks of large-scale investment are too great, this step has never been taken.

    But Zhang Zuolin should have this ability.  He didn't have much contact with Zhang Zuolin before, but Zhang Zuolin's rise in recent years has been obvious. He has long wanted to find an opportunity to connect with each other, and now, this is just an opportunity.  I am politically connected to Fengtian through economic ties. Will it be easy to talk politically when we meet in the future?

    He took the initiative to send someone to invite Zhang Hanqing to the Liang family and met with a series of his economic team. At the same time, he finalized plans for future investment in Fengtian.  Of course, Zhang Hanqing must have revealed the news "in advance" that Zhou Xuexi and Xiong Xiling were going to take shares.

    The reason why it is said to be in advance is that before this, Zhang Hanqing only touched Xiong Xiling, and Zhou Xuexi's matter was not mentioned at all.  But this did not prevent him from hitting the target with time difference: using Xiong Xiling's reputation to give Liang Shiyi confidence, using Liang Shiyi's status effect to give Zhou Xuexi confidence, and then using Zhou Xuexi's goodwill to strengthen the confidence of Xiong and Liang.  The three of them nested inside each other - they were all trapped.

    Lao Xiong didn't have much money and was a weak-willed person. Zhang Hanqing relied on using his political reputation to attract sponsorship and advertising; Liang Shiyi's political reputation was of course worse than Xiong Xiling's, but he couldn't resist being rich at the same time.  This can make up for the shortcomings.  The joining of these two people made Zhou Xuexi feel that with Optimus Prime on his side, he could withstand the danger of Zhang Zuolin's local snake going wrong.

    Therefore, Zhang Hanqing is really confident when he dares to meet Zhou Xuexi

    Generously representing Zhang Zuolin, Zhang Hanqing brilliantly encouraged the three bosses to take a keen interest in Fengtian Coal and Iron Industry and began to send people for on-site survey and planning.  When negotiating the share capital, Zhang Hanqing also generously allowed the Fengtian Provincial Government to obtain 30% of the shares on the basis of land, investment in surrounding facilities and human resources.  Of course, this money will be transferred to the provincial finance. On the surface, Zhang Hanqing will not let anyone question Zhang Zuolin.

    In addition to half of the capital, Zhou Xuexi will also provide managers and technicians; Liang Shiyi will ensure the transportation and sales of coal in addition to investment.  They will all do professional things in professional fields, which is a necessary prerequisite for the success of partners.

    Zhang Zuolin, who was sitting in Fengtian, did not expect that such a good thing as a pie in the sky would really fall on his head.  When Zhang Hanqing Power Generation asked him to arrange manpower and prepare for factory and mine exploration work in advance, he was still doubtful - which one of Zhou Xuexi, Xiong Xiling, and Liang Shiyi is not famous in China for his promises?  Now they all want to come to Fengtian to invest and build a mine. They can get 30% profit out of thin air without having to pay for it at all. Where can I find such good things?

    But not long after, the industrial teams sent by Zhou Xuexi came to Fengtian one after another. During the same period, there was also a money order of 200,000 yuan as the preliminary inspection fee.  Only after looking at the money order that amounted to nothing, Zhang Zuolin believed that this was true.  While being curious about his eldest son, of course he had to pretend to be real and make the money really take root in Fengtian.  Zhang Hanqing also said that this is just asking for advice. If it is done properly and businessmen are confident, there will naturally be a steady stream of investment in the future. This is also an opportunity for the future industrial development of Fengtian.

    Zhang Zuolin would not do the stupid thing of killing the goose and taking the eggs.  He still understands the principle that a steady flow of water should last forever, and reputation is the capital.  As a man with a beard, he has a much stronger respect for "faithfulness and righteousness" than Zhang Hanqing, who drinks a lot of ink.  In the past, Zhang Hanqing and himself discussed using methods of attracting investment to gradually increase Fengtian's industrial strength, so as to point out areas and radiate far and near to the northeast. After the time travel, Zhang Hanqing had been promoting the benefits of unification outside the customs in Zhang Zuolin's ears, which made him  Zhang Zuolin was determined to realize this vision.  Although there is no glimmer of hope yet, Zhang Hanqing is confident that it won't be long before his father and his son have the chance to realize their ideals - history has proven it!  It will be fine even if you lie down and do it.

    Zhang Hanqing now remembers the idea of ??establishing an "investment promotion bureau" that he discussed with himself before leaving.  Good guy, this son who drank foreign ink is really capable!  Although I don¡¯t know what it means, my son has spoken it first, and the result has verified his idea, so I have to do this alone.What's more, investors come here for the "China Merchants Bureau" sign. No matter what, this sign must be erected.

    With the cautious intention of firing the first shot, Zhang Zuolin arranged for Yang Yuting, his first adviser and the general counselor of the General Office, to be in charge of the establishment of this "investment promotion bureau" and the handling of mineral processing and mining matters.

    This general counselor is not the chief of general staff in the general sense, but the role of political and military general assistant who combines the power of the later generations of the Secretary-General of the Military Commission and the Director of the General Office of the Central Committee.  The great wisdom and trust of the chief officer cannot be done.  Historically, Yang Yuting was able to sit in this position for more than ten years before and after the establishment of the Fengtian Department. No matter how many part-time jobs he had, he never took off this position, which shows that his ability is average.  He also played an important role in Zhang Zuolin's development of the Northeast economy. At the same time, he was also the well-deserved leader of the Shenyang Arsenal. He ran it prosperously and was first-class in the country, which shows his management ability.  Zhang Zuolin asked him to take charge of Fengtian's industrial development. First, there was really no one at present, and second, he was using the right person.

    The construction of iron mines and coal mines will naturally touch the nerves of the "good neighbors" Japanese.  The Japanese have huge economic interests in southern Manchuria, and they also occupy many mining industries "free of charge".  Fengtian presides over the investment in these two mines, so it is natural that he will have entanglements with them.  Under the disadvantage of running a division in a miserable state, Zhang Zuolin naturally did not dare to confront them head-on, so at the beginning of the mineral processing, he used various relationships to make it clear to the Japanese: I, Lao Zhang, are purely trying to make money.  Production will never compete with the Japanese.  Wherever the Japanese dump, these two mines will not get involved, whether domestic or foreign.

    It is said that Zhang Zuolin still has some "good friends" in the Japanese military circles. The Japanese also want to support him as a puppet to control Fengtian and even the Northeast. Therefore, they have a certain degree of "understanding" of his actions and only delineated some areas to avoid  "accidental injury".  In any case, the construction of these two mines is quite orderly.  If it were someone else, they might not be able to drive next to the Japanese.  Zhang Hanqing had some understanding of the situation in Fengtian, and he made the right move.

    The initial investment went smoothly, which naturally stimulated the confidence of investors.  In the early days of the Republic of China, far-sighted Chinese businessmen had some ideas about the Japanese mining in Northeast China.  The richness of natural resources in the Northeast is far from comparable to that in the customs. However, considering the unfamiliarity of the place and the fear of competing with the Japanese, the natural resources have been held back.  Therefore, just because the Northeast is a large land, it has accommodated countless people who fled to reclaim the wasteland, but no industrialists have ever entered, except for officials.

    Now, with this gap and Zhang Zuolin as the dominant figure, major businessmen and industrialists have joined forces to join the company by raising funds and dividing shares.  With Liang Shiyi, a celebrity from the central government, and Xiong Xiling, the former prime minister, as his backers, and business tycoon Zhou Xuexi personally setting an example, it is both safe and profitable, so it would be strange if they didn't flock here.

    Capital is all about chasing fish, and capital also has an accumulation effect.  If someone takes the lead, there will naturally be countless followers. Anyway, Fengtian's economy is underdeveloped, and there are opportunities everywhere for investors.  Didn¡¯t you build an iron mine and smelt iron?  I opened a steel forging plant and a steel rolling mill.  Didn¡¯t you build a coal mine?  Good opportunity, I will build a thermal power plant.  Not enough machines?  I run a machine manufacturing factory.  Bad luck with something?  I run a transportation company

    Zhang Zuolin also kept in mind Zhang Hanqing¡¯s advice: Never use power to suppress the enthusiasm of businessmen for immediate interests. The Fengtian government must change its functions, not to ¡°manage¡± the industry, but to guide or simply ¡°serve¡± them.  Lao Zhang may not understand the meaning of the word service, but Zhang Hanqing put it bluntly: treat them as masters.

    Yes, Lord, God of Wealth.

    According to statistics, maintaining a modern army division requires at least 30,000 tons of steel production capacity per year.  In the history of the Republic of China, until 1949, China's annual steel output did not exceed 30,000 tons at its peak.  "Millet plus rifle" is a reflection of the helplessness of that era, and cannot just be a matter of pride.

    Expanding reproduction is the simplest instinct of all capital, and once the market opens up and profits are sufficient, other capitals will compete to get involved in this industry until production is saturated and its average profit is the same as other industries. This is Marxist political economy.  A lesson learned.  But for Zhang Hanqing, the production of coal and iron is not only not saturated at the current stage, but will definitely be in short supply for a long time. This is because China is too big and too weak, and China is still a long way from being an industrial society.  At this stage, China's coal and iron output lags far behind demand. Decades of development debts need to be repaid. Industrialized production still has a long way to go in the future. Not to mention net domestic consumption, this industry will require at least several more investments in the future.  ten years.

    Hidden benefits such as boosting consumption brought by manpower employment are not yet apparent. Taxes are temporarily exempted in the first half of the year - this was negotiated with Zhang Zuolin by Zhang Hanqing before establishing the "Investment Promotion Bureau" in order to attract  invest.  Factories and mines cannot run away without fear of being unprofitable in the future, and sooner or later they will become Fengtian's cash cow.

    Zhang Hanqing¡¯s gold-digging feet are moving forward steadily.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)p; Zhang Hanqing¡¯s gold-digging feet are moving forward steadily.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
