Chapter 130 Ziming Building

With a good idea, there will be a lot of wealth, and the eyes of several people suddenly become more white and less dark.

"As for purchasing, it's not clear what is available in Guangzhou, but since it is a thoroughfare port, there must be a lot of things that can be bought. My idea is: try to purchase primary products that can be processed and appreciated in Guangzhou."

Zhang Xin's proposal is actually a common exploitation method in international trade that purchases primary products and exports finished products.Based in Guangzhou, large-scale purchases of primary products such as liquor, tobacco, pig iron, cotton cloth, raw silk, raw sugar, and wood were processed in Lingao into high-end industrial products for export, earning a profit.This is much faster and less expensive than building a complete industrial and agricultural system from raw materials to finished products.

"Didn't Xiao Bailang say that we are Zenith Star Technology? Since our technology level is so much higher, we shouldn't focus on low-level product manufacturing and processing." Zhang Xin continued, "If you want me to say , including the current logging camp, Lingao is not a place with a lot of forestry resources, but the forestry industry in Guangdong and Fujian has been very developed in the 21st century, why not just buy wood here? With wood, large-scale papermaking can be done. I went to the market with Guo Yi a few days ago, and the price of writing paper is also very expensive, and this thing is shipped in large batches."

"There is a problem of shipping capacity." Xiao Zishan thought for a while, "There is not much diesel oil in stock, so we have to use it sparingly. I have no experience in shipbuilding myself, and the shipyard has to do a lot of infrastructure projects."

Zhang Xin smiled and shook his head: "It's not that I said that your executive committee is divorced from the masses—" After hearing this, except for Guo Yi, several people nodded, "Sometimes you just don't turn your minds and focus on making everything yourself. Even the toilet paper wants to be done by yourself, the result? You don’t know that men with wives and girlfriends are wiping their butts with dried leaves in order to save toilet paper?”

"Is there such a thing? There is no problem with the supply of toilet paper." As a member of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Civil Affairs, Xiao Zishan is well aware that things like toilet paper, which seem insignificant, actually have a great impact on the quality of life, and will hurt morale when it is serious.Therefore, whether it is the storage before the crossing or the distribution after D-day, we must pay close attention to it. Basically, it is calculated on a daily basis and distributed on a weekly basis.However, it is true that the self-production of toilet paper has not yet been completed.

"Commissioner Xiao, having enough and having enough are two different things." Zhang Xin shook his head helplessly, "A man who has a woman by his side naturally has to sacrifice a little bit. So my opinion is simple: buying a ship is worse than building a ship!"

"Buy a boat? Cantonese Sandboat?"

"I don't know what Guangdong sandships are." Zhang Xin waved his hand, "But Guangdong is rich in timber resources and there are many maritime merchants. The shipbuilding industry must be very developed. You can order a few ships here to solve your urgent needs. what."

Indeed, the current tonnage of the Dengyingzhou is too small. As the scale of maritime transportation between Qiongdong and Guangdong expands, it is imperative to expand the transportation capacity.Whether to build a ship or buy a ship, this issue was the same as in the previous time and space, and once caused controversy within the Executive Committee.People in the industrial sector insisted on building their own ships, whether wooden, iron or cement, to accumulate experience and train a group of professional workers through shipbuilding; the commercial trade sector insisted on buying ships and expanding their capacity as soon as possible.

The final result of this debate was the purchase of "Dengyingzhou" - the ship buyers had a slight upper hand for no other reason, and the industrial sector also urgently needed raw materials shipped from the mainland. If they wanted to build their own ships, they would not have a few months It cannot be launched into the water at all, and many raw materials are also lacking.

But the service of "Dengyingzhou" did not eliminate the fundamental differences between the two factions.The shipbuilding school believes that after the initial trade of a small ship is completed, the industrial sector can start building their own ships after the capacity of the industrial sector increases. Therefore, to buy a ship, you must not only continue to buy, but also buy more.

Xiao Zishan still has some headaches about how to resolve the conflict between the two factions.Personally, he thinks both factions are right, buying and building ships matters.But how should this matter be explained to them?

He suddenly had an idea: "Is the Guangzhou Advance Station actually a branch company? The production materials such as ships can be invested by ourselves."

Instead of going to the Executive Committee to put forward the suggestion that building a ship is worse than buying a ship and triggering the second big debate, it is better to let the Guangzhou Advance Station solve it by itself.

"You decide?" Guo Yi still couldn't believe his ears.

"Yes, you decide for yourself." Xiao Zishan patted him on the shoulder pretending to be graceful.The Guangzhou advance station is isolated on the mainland, and is responsible for two important responsibilities of trade and intelligence collection. Things are numerous and complicated. Of course, the executive committee should not engage in remote command.Moreover, there are many departments involved in the advance station. If remote command is required, it will become a problem to listen to who is better.

"Also, how to deal with the interest relationship with Gaoju?" Yan Maoda was still a little worried, "He used to be our agent, but now we are going to directly open a direct store, he must be dissatisfied."

"Didn't you say that when you talked about the plan of Treasure Shop? We operate things that are not the same as him. Let him manage the glassware."

"The problem is that he will also ask the headquarters to let him operate it? Businessmen are very greedy." Guo Yi is more worried about this.

"We are a wholesaler, so it's not bad to let him distribute. Distribution is generally more difficult to do, and it is difficult for non-local businessmen to handle it." Zhang Xin said.

"Let's divide the channels." Xiao Zishan thought about it for a while, and then expressed his thoughts.

"Engage in channel distribution?!" Zhang Xin and Yan Maoda certainly understand what this means, but they also have doubts in their hearts. This kind of channel marketing only started in China in the last decade of the 20th century.

"I know what you think, but my channel marketing idea is not that complicated. It's just walking on two legs." He explained his thoughts.

Gao Ju, as an agent of Australian goods, has opened up the luxury market in Guangzhou.He has strong local connections that the traversers don't have.Therefore, the agency system can be used for luxury goods: mainly glassware, including mirrors, wine sets, tea sets, etc. Anyway, glass has a wide range of uses, and new product development can be continuously supplied.

Salt, sugar, iron products, soap, and cigarettes are bulk consumer goods with low prices and large shipments.Adopt the method of opening commercial banks and organizing wholesale, so that the vast number of small and medium-sized merchants and small business hawkers can distribute.It can also use the two windows of Guangzhou and Macao to organize large-scale exports.

"That's not bad—" Zhang Xin hadn't finished speaking, only to hear a coquettish voice from outside the door: "Then what is my role?"

When everyone heard the words, they naturally knew that the special intelligence agent PEPI had arrived without looking back. They saw that he changed into a blue Confucian shirt today, with red lips and white teeth. .

"Didn't you agree to host the Ziming Building?" Guo Yi was a little dissatisfied. She really knew how to do things, and she couldn't help teasing, "With your ability, you can't be the only one, and the whole city is crazy? What? Intelligence is at your fingertips."

"Hosting the Ziming Building is a trivial matter." PEPI flicked his long sleeves, with the charm of "not taking away a cloud". "It is a trivial matter to engage in intelligence, and the big thing is to create a new era of Guangzhou's fashion industry."

really!This person regards the Guangzhou Advance Station as a stage for his self-performance.

"Then you can create it. Didn't you say that you are not allowed to create it?" Xiao Guo began to be dissatisfied.

"Hey, what can I say about you men?" Ms. P's eyes fluttered, causing goosebumps all over her body, "The fashion industry is a complementary industrial chain. Ziminglou leads the fashion trend and builds a brand. You also have to have a fashion brand." Stores as material support."

"That's a good idea!" Yan Maoda was the first to express his support. He originally planned to use his materials in the 21st century and his long-term experience and technology accumulation in the jewelry industry to open a jewelry store in Guangzhou and sell new jewelry.If Ms. P's Ziming Building can really become popular, wouldn't it be a living advertisement?He said excitedly:

"I can design a whole set of new jewelry for Miss P! Just wait and see, it will definitely sell well!"

Guo Yi hesitated for a moment. Although this proposal was a bit unexpected, it is indeed feasible - the premise is that Ziminglou can succeed.He nodded: "I think it's okay!"

Xiao Zishan also agreed with this point, so the matter of Zizhenzhai was settled like this, Guo Piaoyi and Yan Maoda were gearing up, ready to use his wrists in running jewelry companies in the past.

Then there was a ticking telegram, this time it was from the Industrial Committee, and it turned out that Xiao Zishan was to recruit some professional craftsmen in Guangzhou.

"Plasterers, carpenters, shipbuilders—shipbuilders?" Xiao Zishan wondered why he still wanted to go to the shipyard? "Potters, blacksmiths, coopers..."

There are always a dozen types of work, Xiao Zishan thinks that these are really needed, although they are all very basic types of work, but they have mastered many of the most basic hand-made skills.

This matter can be resolved with Sun Kecheng, Xiao Zishan wrote down the things to be done in his notebook.

"The radio station has become a treasure now," Xiao Zishan said with a smile, "Lingao has clairvoyant eyes and ears."

Guo Yi nodded: "Now as long as there is news of the crusade in Guangdong, the Executive Committee will know immediately. This is the so-called one-way transparency."

"However, what about intelligence collection? How about Daming's secrecy work?"

"Although I am not a fan of Ming history, I personally feel that it is not easy to keep secrets well in the medieval environment." Guo Yizhen said, "If you want to fight, it will involve the mobilization of food, ships, and troops. Complete secrecy cannot be achieved in modern warfare."

"Even so, Daming has Jinyiwei and Dongchang. Don't be too paralyzed."

Several people nodded heavily, the horror of these two families would be as loud as thunder in another time and space 400 years later.

"We have limited knowledge of the history of these two organizations." Xiao Zishan said, "But no matter Jinyiwei or Dongchang, they should have people in Guangzhou. You must always be careful. Don't do things that are likely to arouse suspicion."

"We'll be careful."

"About the captive instruction manual, have you all written it down?"
