1303. Chapter 1303 Replacement establishment

 Chapter 1303 Replacement Establishment

For the rapidly developing country of Haihan, there has always been a huge shortage of professional talents in the field of publicity, so that the Haihan Propaganda Department had to recruit storytellers from the private sector. The quality of storytellers varied.

Qi, occasionally there are a few newcomers like Liu Shang with slightly better professional qualities who are often left to work in Sanya by the senior management. After all, as the political center of the Haihan Kingdom, the local area must have a special tilt in terms of resources.

take care of.

In a city like Danzhou, the human resources allocation that can be enjoyed is naturally one level lower. Although Zhang Xin has also tried to let local academies set up professional training for publicity personnel, the problem lies in the practitioners in this industry.

The training is all carried out in Sanya, and those with outstanding qualifications will inevitably be cut off again. Propaganda personnel who can really be trained locally and can eventually stay and work in the local area are often worried about their qualifications and quantity. In this way, a mind like Liu Shang's

Publicists who speak clearly and without stage fright are extremely rare in Zhang Xin's eyes.

After spending several years in Haihan official circles, Yu Xiaobao certainly understood what Zhang Xin meant, but he didn't want to get involved in the matter, so he smoothed over the matter. This kind of fight between gods

, Yu Xiaobao understood that it was best not to act as the messenger in the middle, otherwise it would easily become an unflattering situation for both parties.

Of course, Yu Xiaobao also admitted that Liu Shang was indeed a talent. He had brought several preachers who were former storytellers. Either they lacked professional skills and could not get on the stage, or they just talked about quackery and

He is not suitable for political propaganda. However, Liu Shang behaves like a scholar and has an excellent memory. Even among the current staff of the Propaganda Department, there are not many people who can memorize the entire text of a manuscript full of numbers and make unscripted speeches.

As you can see, coupled with Liu Shang's strong Typhoon, there was no sign of nervousness or panic even in the presence of hundreds of people. It can be said that Yu Xiaobao really couldn't find anything to criticize.

Yu Xiaobao's original candidate was actually a person from the Ministry of Commerce. He was familiar with the content of the manuscript, but his presentation level was much worse than Liu Shangke. Although Liu Shang didn't understand economics and trade, he could make the manuscript more reasonable.

The rhythm of the operation was narrated to the audience. Yu Xiaobao believed that the effect of his operation was better than that of the original personnel, which could be regarded as a blessing in disguise.

Yu Xiaobao actually has selfish motives for talents like this. The youth league he is responsible for already does a lot of publicity work, and there happens to be a shortage of professionals in this field. If possible, he would really like to be able to return to

After arriving in Sanya, he asked Liu Shang to work for him. Based on this idea, he naturally would not agree to help Zhang Xin come forward to ask for someone.

Liu Shangke didn't know about the secret dealings between the two Haihan officials in the audience. He didn't dare to be distracted and think about other things on the stage. Although the lecture was scripted and there wasn't much room for him to express himself, he didn't dare to think about anything else.

If you dare to be careless, if you say something wrong, the goodwill accumulated over the past few days may be wasted. Liu Shang was not even very able to understand the many data in what he said, but he heard the audience

The audience was not just sighing and whispering, but they also naturally understood that these data have greatly touched businessmen from various countries, and must have many vital interests for them.

Liu Shang only regretted that he had too little knowledge. Now even if the Haihan people clearly informed him of this economic information, he could only understand only 20/10 of it. It was a waste of such a great opportunity for intelligence gathering.

If it were replaced by someone who really knew the business, the value of the information that could be collected might be multiplied several times.

Liu Shang secretly made a decision in his heart. If this trip back is safe and he can continue to lurk in Sanya, he will have to try to enroll in more training classes in the future and learn some useful skills. Otherwise, gathering intelligence will be a waste of time.

It is really impossible to continue doing this job for a long time. According to Yu Xiaobao and others, Haihan does not set too high a threshold for the training qualifications of state agency staff. Basically, as long as they sign up voluntarily, they have sufficient resources at their disposal.

time, then as long as a formal application is made, it will in principle be approved.

Economics and trade definitely need to be learned, weapons manufacturing and military aspects also seem to need to be learned. In addition, in order to be able to understand the various trade routes between Hainan Island and the countries in the South China Sea, it is also necessary to learn navigation knowledge. Also

There is the principle of steam engines that Liu Shang is most interested in, and that is also a course that he must find a way to learn. Just think about it, there are a lot of things that need to be learned, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to learn in a year and a half.

Results.

When he visited local academies before, Liu Shang also listened to several mountain chiefs introduce the academic disciplines of their respective academies. Many highly professional subjects often cannot be taught in three to five months, and some subjects even require several years to train.

It is obviously unacceptable for Liu Shang to produce qualified practitioners. Even if he had so much time to study, his boss would not have the patience to wait for him to complete these preparations.

"It's really not easy to be a spy!" When Liu Shang stepped down from the stage after speaking, the thoughts that flashed through his mind had nothing to do with the speech at this time. Although the audience applauded his speech,

But he didn't have much reaction to this. Liu Shang understood that these applause were not for his wonderful speech, but for the many new policies and preferential measures given to the business community in this manuscript, as well as his so-called "Propaganda Department Officer"

He is just an official. Even if it were someone else who came up to read the manuscript and stumbled over it, the businessmen in the audience would also respond with warm applause.

Returning to his seat, Liu Shang saw that Yu Xiaobao also nodded to him in affirmation, and then quickly bowed in response. Upon seeing this, Zhang Xin said to Xiaobao: "It seems that your subordinates haven't adapted to our situation yet.

What are the rules here?"

Yu Xiaobao nodded and said: "I've only been in Haihan for two months, and I can't change many habits so quickly. But it's not a big deal. It's not surprising that there are many people with courtesy. From these details, I can see that he is a well-behaved person.

"

The preaching activity lasted until lunch time. According to Haihan's usual arrangement for such activities, there was naturally a grand banquet waiting for the guests to participate. And Liu Shang, as a member of the inspection team, was naturally indispensable.

However, Xiaobao had not forgotten that Liu Shang was "ill" and asked about his physical condition with concern. If he was not well, he would go back to the guest house to rest.

Liu Shang was not sick in the first place, but he didn't get a good rest last night, which made him feel sleepy today. However, social occasions like this can often collect a lot of information that is not shown on the table, so naturally he can't miss it, not to mention he can enjoy delicious food.

Good wine, there is really no reason to refuse.

Yu Xiaobao asked him again to confirm, and Liu Shang no doubt knew that he was there. He nodded and said that he was fine and did not need to go back to rest early.

Nanhai Restaurant is the most high-end dining place in Danzhou City, and this place has special significance to Danzhou officials. In March four years ago, Haihan set up a bureau at this place to arrest someone who planned to assassinate officials.

The mastermind Huang Zixing and others. It was also after the Huang Zixing case that some bad habits in Danzhou were quickly eliminated. A large number of local gentry who were resistant to Haihan were suppressed and arrested and relocated. Since then, Danzhou

The state was truly included in Haihan's rule.

Zhang Xin believed that this place was his blessed place, so he later held some large-scale banquets that were difficult to host in guest houses here. There were more than 300 guests attending the seminar today, so the subsequent banquets were naturally arranged here.

Moreover, the entire restaurant was booked to avoid security loopholes.

Liu Shang had already seen various banquets held by the Haihan people along the way, and he was not surprised at the moment. He could only sigh in his heart, "It's good to have money." Little did he know that part of this banquet was actually funded by the government.

It’s not much. Local chambers of commerce, college federations and other organizations will provide part of the funds, and the restaurant will also be very knowledgeable and give a quotation close to the cost price. Although it looks like a big scene, it actually doesn’t exceed the local management committee.

The reception budget for the meeting.

Entourages from all parties are arranged on the ground floor of Nanhai Restaurant, the second floor is dominated by businessmen, and the limited tables on the third floor are basically all official figures. The identity of Liu Shang's inspection team is

There, naturally, we sit on the third floor.

In addition to Haihan's own officials, civil and military officials from Annan, Champa and other countries also ate on the third floor. There were name tags with the names of the guests placed on each table. Only after Liu Shang read them did he know that the military officials

During the performance, the person who commanded the so-called Guangxi Navy was actually a naval admiral from the Lianzhou Prefecture of the Ming Dynasty. However, the man sitting in the seat had short hair no more than an inch, and he was dressed like a Haihan naval officer. This did not look like him.

Is he a military attaché of the Ming Dynasty?

Taking advantage of Zhang Qianzhi not showing up yet, Liu Shang asked Yu Xiaobao this question. Yu Xiaobao explained: "We will send out people and ships, Ming Dynasty will come up with a staff, and then everyone will work together to maintain the Navy brand.

It's that simple."

Liu Shang said in shock: "If this matter is known by the Guangdong and Guangxi Commandery Department or the Governor's Yamen, wouldn't the civil and military officials of Lianzhou Prefecture be in great misfortune?"

Yu Xiaobao smiled and said: "Do you think this can be done secretly? Of course, the formalities must be complete and officially recognized, so that the establishment of this navy can be preserved. Let me tell you the truth, the commander-in-chief and the governor-general's office

They are all informed, and all the procedures for establishing this navy are legal. This navy is indeed affiliated with the Ming Dynasty, but they only obey the orders of the Haihan Ministry of National Defense."

When Liu Shang heard this, he naturally understood the tricks of the Haihan people and replaced the establishment of the Ming Navy with his own navy. This way, the Haihan warships could appear majestically in the Ming Dynasty's offshore waters and control the coastlines in these areas.

This is just maritime arming. I don’t know if Haihan also implemented similar methods against the Ming army on land. If even the Ming troops stationed in various states and prefectures were replaced by Haihan with his own troops, then

Undoubtedly, it is equivalent to evacuating all the government offices in these places.

Liu Shang really wanted to inquire further about this issue, but he was also worried that his overzealousness would arouse Yu Xiaobao's suspicion. Through contact with him these days, he also knew that his young boss was quite sophisticated.

, is not as immature as his baby face, not to mention that Zhang Qianzhi, who is as smart as a ghost, appears from time to time.

Unexpectedly, Yu Xiaobao himself took the initiative to talk about it: "As for using the Ming army's establishment to support our country's army, it is actually beneficial to both countries. If you think about it, the Ming Dynasty only needs to spend a small amount of military expenditures.

We can raise an army with higher combat effectiveness, and when necessary, we will also let the army help the Ming Dynasty deal with local troubles. And we can use the garrison and military expenses of the Ming Dynasty army, and we can also save a considerable sum of money in terms of expenses.

money, and can effectively ensure the stability of the area near Hainan Island, it can be regarded as killing multiple birds with one stone."

Liu Shangxindao, your sophistry may sound reasonable at first, but how can it make sense to use other countries' territory and military expenditures to support your own army? It's no wonder that the coastal prefectures of Guangdong and Guangxi pretended not to notice Haihan's various measures. If this army

They have all been replaced, who dares to stand up to Haihan?

In fact, this approach was implemented when Haihan landed in Sanya, and the earliest target was the navy in Yacheng. At that time, Luo Shengdong's navy all switched careers and became private salt dealers, and the establishment of Yacheng Water Village

They were naturally replaced by the Haihan Army. Later, the Ming Army stationed in Yacheng was also replaced, and Yacheng was brought under the rule of Sanya in disguise. Now this practice has been extended to the Ming Dynasty mainland, and

The methods have also become increasingly mature, from being secretive in the past to being semi-open today.

Even if someone like Liu Shang realizes the harm of doing so, it is difficult to find any way to prevent Haihan from constantly encroaching on the local garrison of the Ming Dynasty. What's more, the local government does not blindly play the role of being oppressed. In this process of interest transactions,

Among them, part of the military expenditures awarded by the Ministry of War of the Ming Dynasty flowed into the pockets of local officials. Although Haihan took the lion's share of the benefits, for local officials, maintaining the status quo can not only ensure peace, but also get considerable personal income.

benefits, so why not do it?

As for what the imperial court thinks, does that matter? Who cares what the emperor thinks in the Forbidden City thousands of miles away? Even if the emperor wants to rectify the chaos in these far-off borders, the people sent from the capital will never be able to defeat the people with Haihan's backing.

Local snake. After Liu Shang figured out the key to this, he felt powerless and desperate about the situation in Guangdong and Guangxi.
