Chapter 131 Teaching a Man to Fish is worse than Teaching a Man to Fish
Chapter 131 Teaching a Man to Fish is worse than Teaching a Man to Fish
Looking at the fish on the table, Cheng Nuo suddenly felt in a daze that this "fish" had already been hooked as soon as he stepped forward, and the only thing missing was a chance.
Now that they come to the opponent's home court, it seems reasonable to make a request after getting closer.
"Justice does not seek profit, and understanding the way does not count merit. Anyway, I want to see what kind of medicine the other party sells in this gourd, to see if it is nourishing and nourishing qi pills, or Jiuqu heartbroken pill."
Cheng Nuo put down the rice and burped on purpose, pretending to be full.
"Sure enough, as long as there is any trouble in this Shanghai beach, it will not escape the insight of the uncle."
"We were born in poverty. If we want to do business and earn some money, we have to work harder than others." Yu Qiaqing picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Besides, with such a big commotion at the bazaar, the entire Shanghai Beach Knowing everything, how could someone Yu be missing."
"It seems that I'm short-sighted. No wonder you can make such a big business. I have to ask you to teach me how to make the business bigger and stronger some other day." Cheng Nuo deliberately said good things for the sake of cliche.
"Hey, I don't dare to take this seriously. How can I, who haven't even graduated from high school, teach a class to a dignified Peking University professor? If I can't tell others, I don't know what to say, and my face is flustered with embarrassment." She refused, but the wrinkles on Yu Qiaqing's face turned into a flower with a smile. Obviously, she was very happy with the kind words.
The preparations were almost done, Cheng Nuo put his job a little farther away, and asked in a low voice, "To tell the truth, thanks to the help of colleagues from all walks of life in Shanghai, mainly cornmeal, supplemented by winter clothes, Zhili's preliminary supplies for flood fighting are almost ready. Yes, it can be shipped to Tianjin as soon as the inventory is completed."
Yu Qiaqing took out a handkerchief, wiped his mouth, and put it on the corner of the table, with a look of grief: "The stagnant water has not yet receded, but now it is suddenly flooded, and the newly sown wheat seeds are half submerged. Next year's early autumn There is no hope. Coupled with cloudy and rainy weather, all kinds of grains are squeezed and moldy, and there are not many people who are gradually sprouting, and the sky is dark."
All I had to do was introduce myself by name, but Cheng Nuo just didn't like it.
"But this is just a thing of the past, and it is very different now." In the face of such a large profit, Yu Qiaqing gritted his teeth and said: "The China Merchants Bureau is called the Guandu Merchant Office, but it is actually a feudal yamen with many redundant staff. The management is chaotic, the efficiency is extremely low, there are malpractice, and corruption is rampant. It is thankful to have [-] catties of grain from Shanghai after arriving in Tianjin.”
Yu Qiaqing clapped her hands, and asked the servants to clear away the food first, and put a pot of hot tea on it: "At present, the countries in Thailand and the West are drowning in bitter battles, and there are German ships wandering in the sea. Shipping by sea is very difficult, and the shipping cost is much higher than before. , the cost of so many materials will not be too low all day.”
Cheng Nuo looked like he had met a confidant, deliberately ignored the second half of Yu Qiaqing's sentence, and pretended to be happy: "Although Mr. Zhang's steamship company mainly serves Dasheng Cotton Mill, life is at stake in disaster relief. He wholeheartedly saves the country and founded Industry is also for this.
But the problem is still under control. We have cooperated with some weather stations in Japan and Nanyang through telegrams. They will notify us in advance when encountering extreme weather, so that we can prepare as soon as possible. With double guarantees, not to mention Tianjin, it is We can also drive safely in Malaysia. "
Yu Qiaqing still has some patriotism in his heart, and thinking of the original intention of the China Merchants Steamship, he couldn't help feeling: "Li Zhongtang once said that the China Merchants Steamship can transport officials, food and customer loans when there is nothing to do, and load reinforcements and ammunition when there is an emergency. It is a key to the implementation of coastal defense, and now it seems that it is really useful.”
Although Yu Qiaqing is a big comprador, this guy is also a big dutiful son.Before going out to Shanghai, his mother specifically told him: "If you make a fortune in Shanghai, you should do something that is beneficial to your hometown, and don't always think about your own life."
"Can you elaborate?"
At the critical stage of "walking the fish", if the fisherman is careless, he may get unhooked if he makes a slight mistake.
Cheng Nuo sighed and said: "During the Jiayin period, that is, the third year of the Republic of China, I was still studying in the United States. At that time, the Mexican president apologized to the United States for arresting Americans, but refused to salute the American flag. The president directly ordered the mobilization of 52 warships to send troops to Mexico.
Cheng Nuo filled up the tea, handed it to the other party, and said with a smile, "That's what I thought, so we are going to contact our own shipping company, so that it will be more comfortable to use."
"How is the quality, price and workmanship compared to Taixi?"
Hearing this, Yu Qiaqing couldn't sit still at all. He was born in the sea, but he knew how important the correct weather forecast was for sea navigation.Not only can the risk of going to sea be greatly reduced, but also the shipping time can be shortened.
A bird in the hand is better than a hundred birds in the bush.
At that time, others were envious, and the people of the country were inspired. I was also inspired by him, and I spent 150 million silver dollars before and after, and followed this path. "
With such a historical background, the other party still asked the question knowingly, and Cheng Nuo instantly understood that he was waiting for him to ask him.
Looking at the tea, Yu Qiaqing didn't drink it, and she didn't drink it, it was too bitter, so don't drink it, and her heart was overwhelmed again. Now that the other party can predict the weather in such a large area in advance, her mentality has quietly changed.
In a limited time, the temptation to earn the most money with maximum safety is too great.
Recalling the history of China Merchants Steamship, Cheng Nuo nodded and said: "Only one year after China Merchants was established, Japan sent troops to occupy Taiwan, and China Merchants was ordered to send ships to transport troops across Taiwan to defend the island; Loading the armies of Anhui and Chu to the Shanhaiguan Yanghekou defense line, of course, the Sino-French war, etc., lived up to the original intention of the establishment, and we should support it.”
Considering that his hometown is close to the sea with a lot of tidal flats, it is rich in cotton but travel is inconvenient, and the people's life is poor, so he directly built a port and a steamship company in the local area. The original purpose was to transport things from his hometown.
Cheng Nuo nodded: "So this batch of supplies is considered a life-saving food for them. Now they are worrying about how to send them to Tianjin. If they are delayed on the road for a long time, I don't know how many victims of the disaster will die early."
Whoever is willing to cooperate with us this time will give priority to selling our ships. "
After a pause, Cheng Nuo continued: "As for us at that time, the British McMahon took away a large part of Tibet's territory without permission, but we had nothing to do. Now the German wolves are scattered in the East China Sea, and the sun is stalking them. The swimming pool, sir, I am really not reconciled!"
In a trance, its importance even exceeds this "kill three birds with one stone" plan.
Now that the local people are in trouble, Mr. Zhang has donated a large amount of supplies, and now he comes to him for help. This matter is definitely nothing to him, and all problems can be solved easily. "
"Hiss~ Xiao Cheng, I didn't expect you to be so powerful, you really don't show your face."
At that time, thousands of U.S. Marines attacked the Mexican mainland and occupied their seaport of La Cruz, resulting in the death of more than [-] Mexican troops. This greatly inspired the patriotism of the Americans and enhanced their international prestige. "
The abacus was so loud, how could Cheng Nuo do what the other party wanted, and began to ramble: "The problem of water transportation was also what I was most worried about at the beginning, but now that I think about it, it is not a difficult matter."
Cheng Nuo gathered all his energy from the bottom of his heart, and smiled again: "This is a big deal. As the saying goes, if you don't listen to the elders, you will suffer in front of your eyes. You can just say it straight, sir, I will definitely listen to you."
Cheng Nuo shook his head, pretending to be tricky: "No, my race must have a different heart, so it's better to leave it to my compatriots at this time."
Yu Qiaqing didn't care at all on his face, but he was shocked in his heart. It seems that his Sanbei Shipping Company can also use this kind of weather forecast and benefit a lot.
"The China Shipping Merchants Bureau is the one founded by Li Zhongtang. It has a long history." Cheng Nuo also took a sip of tea, and said slowly: "Li Zhongtang once said that the Steamship Merchants Bureau can strengthen the coastal defense militarily, and the coastal defense is very important. Ships cannot be laid out gradually."
After making a fortune, Yu Qiaqing, just as his mother introduced, gave back to his hometown all his life and contributed a lot to the welfare of his hometown. He has invested a total of 500 million yuan in his hometown Ningbo for the construction of his hometown, including running schools, building banks, repairing Roads, phone calls, clinics, and more.
Yu Qiaqing was secretly delighted that the largest shipping company in the country was under her own hands. If so many supplies were not handed over to her, who else would she be? It’s very reasonable, my own food is the most palatable, and any steak and pasta are more gimmicks than strengths.”
"This..." Yu Qiaqing was at a loss for words for a moment, her face could hardly hold back, and after she drank the tea in the cup, she gritted her back teeth and forced a laugh: "Brother Ji Zhi (Zhang Jian) threw 60 silver back then The Dasheng Lunbu Company founded by him can be regarded as the first private shipping company in Shanghai.
"Using a furnace tube boiler instead of a steam boiler to increase the pressure of the steam, and changing the original dark wheel to paddle wheel propulsion, etc. Of course, this method is too troublesome. If possible, we will use other means."
Hearing these words now, the double desires in Yu Qiaqing's heart were completely seduced, and she could hardly sit or sleep.
Before getting the actual benefits in the distance, it is better to catch the fish near the mouth first.
Therefore, during the more than 1873 years from 1905 to 30, no private shipping company appeared in Shanghai.After the Sino-Japanese War, these restrictions were lifted.Later, during the Reform Movement of [-], the voices of "revitalizing industry, recovering rights and interests, seeking to strengthen and suppress insults" were very loud.
Yu Qiaqing only felt that the bitter taste of the tea in his mouth was more important than the fragrance, and he persuaded unwillingly: "The system of the Steamship Merchants Bureau is 'official supervision and merchant management', which is to increase the income of the Manchu Qing government. It is also considered a foreigner in essence. Discuss and discuss."
The corner of Yu Qiaqing's mouth twitched slightly, and she put down the cup she had just picked up, and said calmly, "I heard that Mr. Tesla, a famous American scholar, has a very good personal relationship with you. Could it be that the American company is willing to lend a helping hand? , which shows the friendship between the two countries.”
Cheng Nuo scratched the back of his head honestly, and said with a smile: "After all, you can't just support the development of the domestic shipping industry with words, you have to show it in action, right? I'm not thinking that there are so many like-minded people, what I can do , if you can do more, do more.”
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yu Qiaqing's port company has developed rapidly. In just a few years, the company's capital has rapidly expanded to one million, and several thousand-ton freighters have been purchased one after another, and the routes have been expanded to other areas along the eastern coast of my country. Go to Nanyang and help Yu Qiaqing become the earliest ship king in our country.
Yu Qiaqing was very satisfied with this attitude, and said kindly: "Because Dada Lunbu Company established the port earlier, the ships bought are small and old, and the tonnage is low and can't carry much cargo. , You have to plan ahead for this matter, it is best to find a newer and larger shipping company, that will be reliable."
At that time, not only will the other party not pay a penny, but they will also receive disaster relief for nothing, and even the shipping fee that should be paid will be increased by another sum, which is really killing three birds with one stone.
Seeing this, Cheng Nuo was still not satisfied, so he prepared the scrap net in his hand, and said solemnly: "Of course disaster relief is important, and right now we should focus on small reforms to maintain stability, but in the future, we will definitely build our own ship manufacturing company.
Yu Qiaqing was anxious in his heart, and he was unwilling to give up the delicious food no matter what. Reluctantly, he poured another cup of tea: "The weather has been changing recently. It is rainy from Shanghai to the north, and the sea conditions are changing. Mr. Zhang’s ship has not traveled such a long route to the north, so it may be powerless to deal with emergencies.”
Cheng Nuo deliberately filtered out the overtones in his words, and said thoughtfully, "It's really not enough, after all, the weather changes dynamically, and there are inevitably some sudden situations that we can't figure out, and the weather forecast may be inaccurate.
A group of bureaucrats, compradors, and businessmen successively established factories, mines, banks, and shipping companies under the banner of saving the country through industry, which is what Cheng and Yu said.
Yu Qiaqing took the tea and bowed his head slightly to express his gratitude, took a sip of the tea, rolled his eyes, and suddenly smiled and said, "It seems that Xiao Cheng already has a goal, I wonder which company is your first choice?"
China Merchants was protected by a monopoly when it was born. The Qing government imposed various restrictions on Chinese merchant ships other than China Merchants.
"High quality and low price, naturally wins!"
"The world is getting worse, and people's hearts are not old." Cheng Nuo naturally knew about these situations, but he still had to do superficial work, deliberately ignoring Yu Qiaqing's face, and "thinking" of an idea while sighing: "Master, what do you think?" Dada Lunbu Company, Mr. Zhang and I have a very good personal relationship, and we have been friends for many years, so he will not refuse to agree to this matter."
Although the Sanbei steamship he founded had only three [-]-ton steamships at the beginning, and only sailed in the vicinity of the Yangtze River Delta, it was unexpected that during the First World War, Western capital had no intention of looking eastward, and water freight rates soared.
Cheng Nuo thoughtfully served Yu Qiaqing more tea, and said confidently on his face: "Our Academy of Sciences is busy with maritime weather forecasting. Currently, there are meteorological observation points in the East China Sea and Yellow Sea through the Xujiahui Observatory. Hazard forecasting, so navigation problems caused by weather are not that big."
Now that the "fish float" has sunk, it's time to pull the lever and walk the fish.
"Master, we have expected this a long time ago. Isn't it just burning coal? We have already made an improvement plan, and we should thank Mr. Zhang."
It's a pity that he was still not reconciled. He seemed to have made a decision, and said: "In this way, the ship can go to Tianjin freely. My worries are unnecessary. But because of someone who has experienced it, Xiao Cheng, I still want to go to Tianjin again." Say one more thing."
"But in this way, do you have professionals to do it?"
Yu Qiaqing shook his head, shook off what he thought was "frivolous", and drank the tea in the cup again.
After asking this question, Yu Qiaqing himself did not believe that the Academy of Sciences did not have mechanical talents in this field.
"Just forecasting the weather in the two seas is probably not enough."
Clutching his bladder, he hurried out:
"I drank too much tea, let's talk later. By the way, your uncle and I also have a steamship company!"
It can be said that it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish, and it is better to teach a man to desire than to fish.
A complete conversion of offense and defense.
(End of this chapter)
Looking at the fish on the table, Cheng Nuo suddenly felt in a daze that this "fish" had already been hooked as soon as he stepped forward, and the only thing missing was a chance.
Now that they come to the opponent's home court, it seems reasonable to make a request after getting closer.
