Lin Gao Qiming

Chapter 594

"In terms of Jiangnan, it is nothing more than Nanjing, Suzhou, Yangzhou, and Songjiang." Yu Eshui said, "In fact, Songjiang can choose Shanghai County as its distribution point. Songjiang itself is an industrial and agricultural city. The value of commercial shipping is not as great as the port of Shanghai County.”

"What about Beijing?"

Jiang Shan said: "In Beijing, Delong Bank will definitely go to set up points. Yan Ming is also in the business of absorbing stolen money from corrupt officials and eunuchs. Our Intelligence Bureau should also open a small business or something, and get first-hand information from the imperial court."

"We shouldn't forget about Liaodong." Lin Baiguang's eyes glowed strangely, "it's not safe to let Li Luoyou be in the middle. Besides, this person may not be completely trustworthy. We send people to directly grasp the first-hand information locally. .If necessary, it is also worth setting up a business website."

"If you go to Liaodong to stay for a long time, you don't have to shave your head and keep your braids. No one wants it."

"It's good to send someone to look at it first, it doesn't have to be permanent." Jiang Shan thought, whether he can be permanent still has to be a big question mark.

The calculation was settled, Jiang Shan compiled a document on the issues discussed at the meeting and reported it to Ma Qianzhu.

After reading the report, Ma Qianju asked a few more questions, and then he said:
"I don't mind if you want to increase personnel. You can go to the Organization Department to see how many people are willing to be transferred to the Intelligence Bureau. Also, the Organization Department recently released a document about the staffing of various departments and agencies. You should take a look first. Write a compilation form."

"Yes, I'll be there soon." Jiang Shan knew that Secretary Ma was a leader who paid attention to "Soviet-style comradely etiquette", and liked short and crisp answers and neat expressions.

"The staffing includes not only veterans, but also indigenous personnel." Ma Qianju said, "You should discuss this issue more, because it involves next year's budget - from next year, all administrative agencies must have You have an idea of ​​the budget and final accounts.”

"Understood!" Jiang Shan nodded sharply, "There are a few things I would like to ask for instructions."

"Go ahead."

"The collection idea of ​​'government-supervised-private-run' mentioned in the intelligence activity plan I submitted, as well as setting up points on the mainland," he said, "this all involves the issue of how to deal with the business relationship with the colonial trade department. "

Although intelligence personnel can use all kinds of cover, businessmen are the most common and easiest cover identity after all, and they can establish a commercial network in the mainland, killing two birds with one stone.

"I have to discuss this matter with the Deputy Minister of the Colonial Trade Department." Ma Qianzhu said, "Since both parties benefit, it is appropriate for them to invest in the newly opened commercial site. Your intelligence is just a matter of incident."

"Yes, I think so too." Jiang Shan was very happy to see that the governor had accurately found out the key part of what he said, and expressed his approval.

"As for whether or not to send someone to Liaodong, my personal opinion is that it is unnecessary. Since Li Luoyou is our middleman, why send another veteran there? It's unnecessary. Houjin has such a big plate, and it can be smashed lightly. It’s all messed up, we don’t care what Huang Taiji, Dorgon, Da Yuer and Xiao Yuer think.”

"I feel that finding out the situation in Liaodong is of certain significance for the future military operations to conquer Liaodong." Jiang Shan said, "My idea is to follow the example of the activities of the Japanese ronin, and have a better understanding of Liaodong's geography, weather, city walls, commerce, Collect basic information such as population to provide intelligence support for future military operations and comprehensive elimination. In the long run, there is no need to send a veteran, but in the early stage, a veteran should be sent to take command."

"If you think it's necessary, I don't object to any veteran who is willing to shave his head and take the risk—in case someone says we don't respect public opinion." Ma Qianju said it didn't matter, "However, the person who wants to go must be approved by the organization department. Some people with special skills can’t go.”

"Good." Jiang Shan felt cold for a while.He had a feeling that he couldn't express: Ma Dugong looked at the elders in the same way as he looked at the aborigines.

"The dispatched intelligence station," Jiang Shan continued to report, "In addition to the overseas station that cooperates with the Ministry of Colonial Trade, I also plan to set up a separate system, which I call the 'Black Dragon Society' system."

Ma Qianju looked disinterested: No matter if you belong to the Black Dragon Society, the White Dragon Society, or the Red Flower Society, he is very clear about Jiangshan's reason for coming, and it is nothing more than money.

Engaging in information requires money, and it is a lot of money.Coupons cannot be used.You have to use a lot of silver or goods that can be exchanged for silver.Now Baiyin is a "foreign exchange" status, and it must be applied for one case at a time, and the procedures are very troublesome.

Jiang Shan continued the conversation persistently: "The Black Dragon Society organization is a non-governmental organization. The non-governmental capital under the time-traveling group system is funded to set up locations across the mainland. Recruit intelligence and operational personnel on the mainland on the spot..."

He talked for ten minutes about the organization system and operation mode of the Black Dragon Society.Only then did Ma Qianju speak:
"Have you considered which capitalists from Lingao will be the sponsors of the Black Dragon Club?"

The idea of ​​the government-supervised private operation of the Black Dragon Club is good, but the problem is that the overseas station is the property of the Transit Group, and cooperation can be carried out by relying on a single order from the executive committee.As for private capitalists, their only idea is to pursue profit. If there is not enough profit, who would take this risk to participate in some black dragon meeting!

"I've thought about it. One is Lin Quan'an's Quan Fu Xing. Lin Quan'an made his fortune by undertaking bulk purchases for us. Now our supply system is gradually improving, and the foreign trade system has also been established. He relied on his early monopoly Sooner or later, the days of gaining profits as a supplier will come to an end, and they will definitely choose to transform.” Jiangshan has done research, and Lin Quanan’s recent orders from the Transit Group are decreasing, and the profits are also much smaller.He was compensated, of course, with some profits from the rapidly expanding local population, but the general trend was downward.

Jiang Shan thinks: Lin Quan'an is now eager to find a new business outlet.Working with him is very possible.

"Lin Quanan already has extensive business contacts in various parts of Hainan, but the market in Hainan is very small, and many of the materials originally purchased by him have been directly obtained by us, so he has the intention to go out and develop in the mainland."

"Yeah." Ma Qianzhu became a little interested, "Go ahead."

"The reason why Lin Quanan has not moved is mainly because he feels that he lacks a backer on the mainland. After all, he relied on us to make his fortune, and we also provided escort for his business development. Once he arrives on the mainland, he will He has no confidence in breaking away from Lingao's influence.

"So I am going to use his mentality to make him fully feel that we have not forgotten him, that our interests are tied to him, and that there will be a powerful organization behind the scenes to support him, and Lin Quanan will be willing to become a member of the Black Dragon Club gone."

"Very good." Ma Qianzhu commented simply, "There are more."

"Of course it's Runshitang."

"You have wiped out all the capitalists in Lingao."

"Yes," Jiang Shan said, "Liu San from the Ministry of Health has a memorandum about the establishment of Daming's 'Watson's' chain of pharmacies based on Runshitang.

"Yang Shixiang, the owner of Runshitang, is investing in the mechanized production of Chinese patent medicines, and most of his products are sold on the mainland. Expanding investment in the mainland is his original intention. We just use this intention... ..."

"Cough," Ma Qianzhu coughed, "Yang Shixiang originally had his own business network in mainland China, and he is not as dependent on us as Lin Quan'an. You want him to take the risk of joining the Black Dragon Association to do Ming's intelligence work. Impossible?"

"The probability is half to half." Jiang Shan said frankly, "There is no need to let him know at the beginning, we only use his branch as a cover-directly insert intelligence personnel into his organization. Wait until he sees our intelligence agency I'll tell him about my abilities later."

This is of course also possible.However, Runshitang and Lin Quanan's Quanfuxing are different.There is only one model left for the significance of Quanquanxing to the time-traveling group; Runshitang is equivalent to a subsidiary of the time-traveling group.Moreover, Yang Shixiang and Liu San planned to follow the route of chain pharmacies in Daming.If a family makes a mistake, the whole army will be wiped out.Not to mention what will happen to Yang Shixiang's attitude, even Liu Sanhe's Ministry of Health invested in Runshitang will be furious.

"You must communicate with Liu San, the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Commerce about this matter." Ma Qianzhu reminded him.

"Yes, if they don't agree, we will suspend Runshitang's plan." Jiang Shan said, "Using the Black Dragon Club system, we can reduce a lot of investment, and part of it can be borne by these capitalists..."

The other part is naturally borne by us.Ma Qianzhu thought, after talking for a long time, he still had to return to the key issue.

He said: "Okay, you write a plan, and then send up the budget estimate."

Ma Qianfu told Hou Wenyong: All the documents received in the past few days about the Foreign Intelligence Agency were sent to his desk first.Hou Wenyong has been promoted to Secretary of State.He was happy that he was able to take up the position of "Master" at a young age, but he was embarrassed because he soon discovered that almost all the secretaries of various departments were young women.Every time a secretarial meeting is held, he becomes "a little green in a thousand reds".

"Then you go to the compound of the Ministry of Colonial Trade and invite their vice-officials to come." Ma Qianzhu ordered, "Well, don't come to the compound of the Government Affairs Council, go to the lounge of the office."

He thought: Although the other party is a vice-official, after all, he is also a vice-official in a department at the same level as his own. The two parties have no affiliation, so it seems too domineering to call here directly.The reputation will be very bad.

The Colonial and Trade Minister has not yet been elected.According to the "Common Program", the nine executive committee members are all political officials, who need to be elected by the Senate, but several of them have not yet been produced. These positions are either no one cares about them or there are too many peeping people. The court has held several plenary meetings and has not yet resolved it.

Therefore, those who are interested in these businesses took the route of affairs officer, and the positions below the executive committee are appointed. Skade took this route, and became the office director of the Ministry of Colonial and Trade smoothly--currently In other words, it is equivalent to the deputy minister of the Ministry, and actually exercises most of the administrative power of the Ministry.

Skade is a radar major-there are several radars in this place, but it is very difficult to make radars.He immediately understood what "Dragon Slaying Technique" is. So far, all his professional experience has been doing maintenance work for the few radars in the Transit Group.

Ma Qianju knew this person.This person is an oligarchist in politics, opposed to parliamentary democracy, and at odds with the Qian family brothers, the leaders of the North American branch, and called Shan Liang "a careerist on the soap box."Ma Qianju thinks it is appropriate for this person to be an official in the Ministry of Colonial and Trade Affairs: the work of this ministry is too universal and too democratic. Appropriate - they are too extreme, always want to express their loyalty to the ideal, do not know that many things have to be carried out in stages.

He puts a "Leaving" sign on his desk-this sign has two colors, one is green, which means a short-term leave within 15 minutes, and the other is yellow, indicating that the leave time may be as long as One hour.In case someone is waiting.

Ma Qianju went downstairs and opened the door from the backyard of the office building - there was an indigenous guard here.He showed his pass, and the guard carefully checked the photo and his face, and then wrote down the time of his departure and the pass number in the log book.

He looked at the dark face of the guard, who copied the Arabic numerals in a clumsy manner according to the guard regulations, and thought: Our system really needs to be implemented. Since people can be transformed, society can also be transformed.

"Your pass, chief." The guard stood at attention and opened the door to the backyard.

"Thank you." Ma Qianzhu put away the pass and walked out slowly.

Opening the back door is a long open-air corridor leading directly to the yard where the executive committee office is located.The lanes between the compound of various agencies can allow the personnel of each department to walk directly between each other's buildings without leaving the gate, which is convenient for security and access control.

There was no one in the aisle, it was very quiet.Ma Qianju could even hear the chirping of birds.This kind of bird song can be heard less and less near Bairen City. The roar of machines and thick smoke in the adjacent industrial area drove away the birds and animals here.

The singing of birds is so cheerful, by the way, the spring of Lingao has arrived.The place is subtropical after all, the winter is short and inconspicuous, the leaves never wither, the flowers bloom all year round, and at noon you can always run around in a shirt or even an undershirt.Ma Qianju likes places with four distinct seasons, where you can feel the prosperity and withering of plants, and the passage of time as the seasons change...

He put his hands in his pockets.Recalling the recent documents sent by the Chief Financial Officer's Department on several institutional constructions of the fiscal system, taxation system, and accounting system.In addition to the conversations of Yifan, Chen Ce and others at the Wudaokou Finance Conference, he felt an unprecedented pressure coming to him.

This kind of pressure is difficult for others to understand, or even can't understand-financial system, isn't this an upright system construction?As someone said: Without accounting and financial systems, is it going back to the barter system?

No, that's not the case.Ma Qianzhu thought to himself, this is a line struggle.

To put it simply, it is the conflict between engineers and accountants, and it is a struggle between two different development ideas.

Accountants are anxious to deal with finances, use economic indicators to control society, and manage enterprises in the same way as they manage enterprises.Engineers intend to use a complex set of technical indicators to expand industry as quickly as possible.

Ma Qianju believes that the idea of ​​an accountant is only suitable for a single enterprise, and it is the kind of enterprise that can switch between multiple suppliers, multiple logistics providers, and multiple sales methods at any time.Only such enterprises can manage funds as the center.

In his secret memo he wrote:
…Under the current economic situation in Lingao, the thinking of Yi Yifan and others is meaningless.Funds are not equally used at all by different suppliers—that is, production processes in other factories.It is not possible to linearly exchange one indicator for another.That is to say, currency notes are not real currency, and there is no mature market for industrialized products in this world where microeconomics can be applied casually.Therefore, marketization is not established.Complex indicators must be used, that is, technical core control.Only broad-based technology, mature technology, that is, technology that can be opened to indigenous operations, can take the route of pure capital control.
……

High technology will never leave the market.Because its own value cannot be measured by the market, it is reasonable to take the core route of engineers at this time.A planned economy must be maintained in core industries, using monopoly profits to make up for development costs, and using technological superiority to deal with micro-efficiency losses.

……

However, from the perspective of a government, it is difficult to deny the role of currency, accounting, auditing and accounting.It can even be said that without this system, the modern government cannot function, including the basic budget and final accounts of modern government operations.Therefore, how to strike a balance among them is a very critical thing.

He thought, he should talk to Cheng Dong, he should be able to understand his theory.Of course, Cheng Dong now also supports the plan of Yifan and his group—this is natural. Once this plan is passed, the power of the financial department will increase exponentially. It is impossible for people to resist this plan. Kind of tempting.

He suddenly remembered that one of the documents recently sent to the Executive Committee Secretariat by the Chief Financial Officer's Department was a request for instructions on adding "professional bank guards".This report is unremarkable, placed in a pile of transactional reports.According to the procedure, as long as it is approved by the executive committee and passed by the Senate executive meeting for the third time, the matter will be considered complete.

what!Ma Qianju thought, you want to set up the Ministry of Finance's Secret Service.Can this matter be used as a bargaining chip?He immediately vetoed his own idea—the bargaining chip is too small, can such an institution as the Secret Service of the Ministry of Finance be compared with the power that affects the overall situation?
