Datang Nongsheng

Chapter 637 The Wave of Clan Reform

Greed is an inferior quality that most people have, and it has not diminished in the slightest because of the progress of human civilization.

Officials of the imperial court have been corrupted, and they can still be sent to prison for justice. The family members who are in charge of the family have embezzled in their own property, but the imperial court will not take care of it. Disposal usually means some beatings, scolding and punishment. The most serious ones are nothing more than expulsion from the family. After all, there is generally no patriarchal clan of that family, and it is allowed to kill the same clan.

Therefore, in the case of uneven distribution of benefits, the problem of corruption within the family is much more serious than that of the imperial court. The larger the family, the more difficult it is to manage it. Between the descendants and concubine, there is a natural competition for interests, but, for the sake of the clan's ship not sinking, they all maintain their own bottom line principles.

After Sun Xiangfu figured out the internal situation of the Wei family, or most of the aristocratic families, he said, "In this case, I suggest you choose Yuzhou in Henan Province, because it is the closest to Shanyang and grows the same medicinal materials. The cost of your delivery to Shanyang Pharmaceutical Factory will be much lower than other places."

After hearing Sun Xiangfu's suggestion, Wei Shuxie immediately began to worry about it, but such a suggestion would definitely not satisfy him, so he said again, "That's right, our Wei family is very optimistic about the future pharmaceutical market. You see, the pills produced by Shanyang Pharmaceutical Factory are not only intended to supply the tens of millions of people in Datang, but also to export to the Western Regions, a large market with hundreds of millions of people. The current production volume cannot be supplied at all. You said, we only have a pharmaceutical factory in Shanyang, isn’t the scale too small?”

"What? Your Wei family, do you have ideas about pharmaceutical factories?"

Wei Shuxie nodded and said, "This is in response to the market demand! Think about it, even if there are only a million mu of land suitable for planting medicinal materials in a state, the medicinal materials produced are quite amazing. To Shanyang, the transportation cost is huge, so it is better to open a pharmaceutical factory directly in Yuzhou, so that it will be much simpler and less troublesome to directly produce medicinal materials into light Chinese patent medicine pills and sell them outside."

Sun Xiangfu knew this, and said, "You can't talk to me about this matter! Who does the pharmaceutical factory transfer its pharmaceutical technology to to open a branch factory? If the issue of strategic reserves is involved, His Majesty should not have much problem."

"I've got it working! But I got stuck with Mr. Xiao. He said that drug prices and the market for external sales involve many strategic aspects and people's livelihood management issues. Before we have formulated good control measures, we will not easily disclose them to the public." Open, didn't I come here to ask you to think of a way to see if I can take advantage of my Wei family while protecting the interests of the imperial court?"

"What Xiao Xiang said is indeed a problem, just let me think about it." After Sun Xiangfu finished speaking, he quietly stared at the float on the water and began to think.

In fact, if the Wei family hadn't made reforms, it would be absolutely impossible for the imperial court to consider handing over such an important industry to them for development. This is why Sun Xiangfu suggested that Li Shimin give the first batch of opportunities to cooperate with local governments to those restructured families. If the equity is divided, the family will be divided, and only those who have been dispersed They will be more harmless to the country, and they will guard against each other and embezzle their own interests.

Now that the Wei family has entered the stage of liquidating their property and distributing shares, they have the basic conditions to cooperate with the imperial court to develop projects. For similar joint-stock companies, including some previous industries jointly developed by several companies, the imperial court will Introduce a company law to manage.

Whoever holds any industry and how many shares needs to issue legal documents from the Ministry of Commerce. With these legal documents, they can legally obtain the profit dividends of the corresponding industries, and the court will protect them at the height of the law. Interests.

Moreover, for industries with multi-person holdings and assets reaching a certain level, the imperial government will represent the shareholders to supervise the operation and assets of the industry. This is for the sake of national security and to protect the interests of all shareholders. .

It can be said that once this company law is promulgated, it will be difficult for unethical business practices such as hoarding and maliciously driving up market prices to appear in the market in the future.

As for the Wei family's plan to develop medicine fields and a pharmaceutical factory in Yuzhou, Sun Xiangfu gave Wei Shuxie a suggestion, that is, to invest in the Weiss Group established after the Wei family's restructuring, and become a Yuzhou pharmaceutical factory. As the major shareholder of the Yuzhou Chamber of Commerce, after the establishment of the Yuzhou Pharmaceutical Factory, there were many shareholders of the court, Webster, Shanyang Pharmaceutical Factory, and local people in Yuzhou, who were subject to multi-party supervision. Similarly, the Yuzhou Chamber of Commerce also had the imperial court, Webster, Many shareholders, including local people in Yuzhou, are also under the supervision of multiple shareholders, and will follow the various management models of the Nine Chambers of Commerce to publicly disclose financial accounts to all shareholders to prevent corruption or some illegal transactions.

Sun Xiangfu told Wei Shuxie about this whole set of ideas, and asked him to discuss with Xiao Yu and the others. Moreover, he himself wrote a letter to Xiao Yu, Wei Zheng, Ma Zhou and others, explaining the company law and this kind of law. I told them about the management of second and third-tier subsidiaries, multi-party shareholding, and multi-party supervision. I believe that with their wisdom, it is not difficult to formulate detailed management regulations based on this framework.

Moreover, this set of management framework will also elevate the basic conditions for the joint development of industries between the family and the local area, that is, it must be a formal company registered with the Ministry of Commerce, with clear equity, clear assets, and supervision by personnel selected by the imperial court and shareholders. Qualified.

This will lead to families like the Wei family who give priority to successful restructuring, and have no obstacles when cooperating with local industries. They can rely on the capital at hand, seize the opportunity, and quickly seize the market, whether it is the pharmaceutical industry or the salt industry. , or the cotton planting and textile industries, as long as they have enough managers and the money has not been spent, they can quickly seize the site and start launching.

One afternoon, after Sun Xiangfu and Wei Shuxie talked everything through, he hurried back to Chang'an. In the following days, Sun Xiangfu taught the common people in Jiuyuan County every day. Shuxie is mobilizing all family forces to quickly complete asset liquidation and share distribution, and strive to register the company as soon as Xiao Yu, Wei Zheng, Ma Zhou and others have produced a complete set of management regulations, launch projects, and seize the market.

This move of his may be able to hide it from others, but it can't be hidden from the families in Guanzhong who are close to Webster's. Generally, when they are very active in promoting a project like them, there must be huge interests hidden in it, so After inquiring, analyzing and speculating from many sources, these families guessed the things that Webster and the Changsun family in Luoyang, who had already moved, were going to do after vigorously promoting family reform.

Then, they found that if their family didn't follow up quickly, they might not even get a hair in Datang's development plan.

Therefore, there was no need for any publicity and promotion from the imperial court. Starting from Guanzhong, there was a wave of inventory of family property and clan reforms in the powerful families of the entire Tang Dynasty.

Wang Xu was caught off guard by this wave. In late July, when Li Shimin took a large ship, he went to Nanjun for a tour and returned to Guangzhou Bay. When the exploring Baotou steel fleet was sent off, the company law, which had been studied for three months, and the specific management rules and regulations for promoting the welfare protection project were promulgated.

On this day, in front of the Yamen of the Ministry of Commerce, there were huge crowds of people, and large bulletin boards were erected outside the door, with many company information posted on them.

The first piece of red paper stated that Datang Overseas Exploration Investment Co., Ltd. has a total share capital of 660 million shares and a stock price of ten.

Its industries broadly include...

Its major shareholders include...

All shareholders who hold the shareholder certificate of Datang Overseas Exploration Investment Co., Ltd. have the right to supervise and review the company's accounts. The board of directors must proactively inform all shareholders of the company's asset status, operating conditions, and profitability once a year. ······

Then, Weinan New City Co., Ltd., Weinan Smelter, Weinan Car Factory, Weinan Farm Tool Factory, Weinan Shipyard...
There are nearly [-] large-scale factories in total, and the state-owned enterprises of the imperial court, as long as the assets exceed [-] guan, and the industries involving multiple shareholders are all on the list.

After reading these lists, the first thought of all the aristocratic families is that these industries will definitely be better than their own industries in terms of management in the future.

Because the management structure, profit distribution, and regulatory system are clear and clear, the value of the shares held by its shareholders is increasing rapidly every year.

Just as they were envious of the shareholders of these industries, the members of the Wei family came out from the office of the Ministry of Commerce with a large piece of red paper, and then they happily posted the big piece of red paper on the bulletin board.

I saw that it said, the total share capital of Webster Group is 2000 million shares, and the share price is consistent. The industries under its name include wholly-owned subsidiaries, Weinan Coal Factory, Shanyang Coal Factory, and Guangzhou Salt Factory...

In the column of important shareholders, Wei Yijie, the owner of Xiangcheng County, holds 1000 million shares. Major contemporary members of Webster, such as Wei Ting, Wei Shuxie, Wei Shen, Wei Lian, and Wei Hun, all hold several shares. It ranges from 10,000 to [-]+ shares. In the end, all the Weiss men hold shares, most of which are only a few hundred or a few thousand, and even some offshoot sons have dozens of shares, up to thousands of people, everyone in the Wei family Directly in the Yamen of the Ministry of Commerce, a large cart of corresponding shareholder certificates was pulled back to distribute.
