Chapter 530 Situation Description

At that time, Li Nai heard the news about the great changes in Qiongzhou Island in Guangzhou, and actually had some premonitions in his heart. Although he did not know the connection between the pirate invasion and the counterattack of the militia, since the Haihan people took this opportunity to attack Qiongbei,

With the troops stationed, I am afraid they will not be able to evacuate easily due to their style of doing things, and the speed of evacuating the Ming court government on Qiongzhou Island will probably be greatly accelerated as a result.

However, what the Haihan people did was beyond Li Nai's expectation. If Li Jifeng's analysis is true, then the Haihan people have put their ambitions into action in advance. Judging from the current reaction of the Guangdong government, it seems that adults

We have not yet realized how fundamental the situation on Qiongzhou Island has changed.

Thinking of this, Li Nai suddenly felt a trace of resentment towards Haihansheng. He had not even communicated with the Li family about such a major move. If the news leaked out and the Guangdong government discovered it in advance, the safety of the Li family would be really in jeopardy.

When the Haihan people were doing these things, did they still remember the Li family as a partner?

Just as Li Nai was about to complain to his father, he heard a servant outside the house loudly report: "Master, two young masters, a distinguished guest is here!"

Li Nai swallowed the words that were on his lips, got up, walked to the door, opened the door and asked, "Who is the guest?"

"It's Mr. Schneidersch from Haihan who has arrived!" The servant quickly handed over the name card.

"Hurry up and invite me!" Li Nai didn't care about the topic just discussed in the room at the moment, and quickly ordered the servants: "Hurry up and bring the tea and cakes!"

Schneider's status within Haihan was very high, so Li Jifeng could not wait in the room, so he also went out to welcome Schneider's arrival with his two sons.

"Boss Li, everyone's time is precious and we are all our own people, so I won't talk in circles here." After a few pleasantries, Schneider quickly got to the point: "This shareholders' meeting will be held in Zhennangang.

We will announce some new development projects, and we hope that Fulifeng can provide some necessary assistance after our announcement as before."

Schneider's words were very tactful. If it were more straightforward, he actually invited "Furuifeng" to take charge of Haihan's development plan. In many previous project launches, "Fruifeng" has played the role

Similar roles influence other businesses with a very positive investment attitude and encourage them to join Haihan's development plan.

And this kind of cooperation is not only good for Haihan, "Furuifeng" also benefits a lot. Putting aside the additional preferential conditions given by Haihan to "Furuifeng", this also makes "Furuifeng"

"In the maritime business circle, it has gradually established a leading image and gained high popularity and prestige. This benefit to the daily operation of "Furuifeng" even exceeds the remuneration given by Haihan people.

The two parties have always had a very high tacit understanding in this regard, and "Furuifeng" does not need to worry that the Haihan people will cheat themselves in the process. As long as it is a project raised by the Haihan Ministry of Commerce, there has been no loss so far.

, it’s nothing more than a difference in how much money you make and how fast you make it. Since it’s a business that’s guaranteed to make a profit, Li Jifeng has always been happy to cooperate with the Haihan people.

However, when the situation reached this stage, Li Jifeng did not dare to agree to it as quickly as before. Instead, he cautiously asked, "Can Mr. Shi reveal a little bit about this new development project?"

Schneider did not answer Li Jifeng's question, but asked: "Does Boss Li think there is something wrong?"

Although Schneider asked softly, Li Jifeng felt a chill on his back and quickly explained: "No, no, I'm just a little curious. After all, you just launched a war, there should be many more

The transaction has not been completed..."

As Li Jifeng spoke, he was also observing Schneider's expression, but Schneider seemed very calm and did not show any obvious emotional reaction to Li Jifeng's statement.

Schneider said calmly: "Since Boss Li mentioned the recent situation on Qiongzhou Island, I will inform you of the situation by the way, so as not to worry about your property on Qiongzhou Island."

"Don't worry! Don't worry!" Li Jifeng smiled politely and looked at Schneider eagerly, waiting for him to explain the situation.

"This time Qiongzhou Island was invaded by foreign forces, and the Guangdong government was unable to rescue it. We sent troops to help in response to the request of the government and the general public. We did not raise troops to cause trouble privately. Do you all know this, right?" Schneider asked.

"I know, I know, there are notices posted in Guangzhou about this matter. People know that this is a direct order from the governor's office to mobilize the Haihan militia to defend the enemy. There are no other rumors on the market." Li Jifeng quickly responded: "The Haihan militia resisted foreign enemies and recovered.

Territory, this contribution is of course undisputed!"

After Li Jifeng said it, he felt something was wrong. If the Haihan people were determined to take over Qiongzhou Island, wouldn't it be a mockery to his face if he said "recovering the country"? Look at Schneider's expression, but he is still calm. Li Jifeng's words

I felt a little relieved.

"We sent troops, fought, and now are stationed and managed. These step-by-step actions were all approved by the Guangdong government. All our military actions on Qiongzhou Island are well-founded.

Reasonable and legal." After Schneider said this, he changed the topic: "In view of the fact that this pirate invasion destroyed many facilities and properties in the Qiongbei area, it is estimated that a lot of recovery and rescue work will be carried out after the war. If it were just us Haihan

The strength of one family is a bit weak, so we want to follow the successful practices of the past and introduce more funds and resources to the Qiongbei area for large-scale development."

After Schneider finished speaking, Li Jifeng was stunned for at least ten seconds before hesitantly responded: "What Mr. Shi means...is that the new development project to be announced this time...is in Qiongbei?"

Schneider nodded and acknowledged Li Jifeng's guess: "Yes. Due to this pirate invasion, Qiongbei's government agencies are now in a state of paralysis, and all civil and military affairs are temporarily managed by us. If Qiongbei cannot be released as soon as possible,

If more than 100,000 people in Qiongbei get rid of the war and start their lives again, then large-scale civil unrest is likely to break out in Qiongbei. The purpose of our investment promotion is to help the people who lost their property in this war

Having a bowl of rice to eat gives them a chance to start over. Of course, these follow-up measures will be carried out under our planning and leadership to ensure that the bosses can obtain reliable returns on their investment."

It’s really a high-sounding statement! If before Schneider came here, Li Jifeng was only 30% sure about Haihan’s motivation for sending troops, now he is at least 90% sure that the chaos in Qiongbei was actually written, directed and acted by the Haihan people.

What a great show.

The scale of this pirate invasion was so large that thousands of thieves attacked several cities in Qiongbei, beating the officers and soldiers to the point where they were unable to fight back. They almost captured all of Qiongbei. Such a powerful military force had not been able to fight back in the past few years.

But I have never heard of its existence, which is a very strange thing in itself. However, such an armed force behaved extremely weakly in front of the militia, completely defenseless, and in just a few days, it occupied all the territory

Throw it away, and the militiamen were driven directly into the sea from Danzhou Bay where they landed. The difference in combat power before and after was really too big, and it already seemed a bit incredible.

Facing this area that had just been liberated from pirates, the Haihan people did not want to return these areas to the hands of the Ming Dynasty as soon as possible, but to make these areas their new development targets. Although Schneider had vowed before

All troops sent out to fight were at the request of the Guangdong government, and all actions were approved by the government. But what is certain is that the Guangdong government has never heard of Haihan's use of the Qiongbei area as a development area.

Moreover, the war in the Qiongbei area has just ended, and no one knows whether the mysterious pirates will come back, but the Haihan people are so determined that they will immediately invest money in development in the Qiongbei area. With the Haihan people's caution and ability,

Can you come up with such a careless thing? Li Jifeng believes that the chance of this happening is extremely low. After the Haihan militia helped the northern court fight the civil war in Annan, they were not in a hurry to develop the territory they obtained in Annan. It is said that part of the reason is

Because the Executive Committee is worried that the local situation will repeat. But why can the Haihan Executive Committee make such a decision unscrupulously this time? Li Jifeng feels that the most reasonable explanation is that these pirates are simply accomplices under the instructions of the Haihan people.

.

Why are the Haihan people eager to attract investment and development in Qiongbei at this time? If these clues are connected in series, Li Jifeng thinks it can be explained - the Haihan people are trying to use profits to attract a large amount of private capital injection from Guangdong.

On Qiongzhou Island, a considerable part of these capitals have official backgrounds, and behind many business firms there may be a big shot in the government holding certain shares.

When these capitals were injected into Qiongzhou Island, the interests of Ming Dynasty, to be precise, the interests of Ming officials, were integrated with the interests of Haihan to a certain extent. Even if the fact that Haihan invaded and occupied Ming Dynasty was exposed, Guangdong would probably

It would be very difficult for me to deal with such a problem.

Don’t fight. Qiongzhou Island is the territory of the Ming Dynasty after all. How could it be occupied by a group of foreigners without any noise? Fight. Let’s not talk about whether we can win. First of all, the adults’ wallets will suffer because of it.

After a loss, who would be willing to take the initiative to take the blame? You can't live with yourself.

Li Jifeng can be regarded as a veteran who has been involved in politics and business for many years. He quickly came up with a relatively clear idea of ​​the whole matter in his mind. However, it still made him feel a little apprehensive that the Haihan people did such a bold thing.

Uneasy. If Haihan makes a mistake, compradors like his Li family, who are in the Ming Dynasty and whose hearts are in Haihan, will be confiscated and exterminated by the government in minutes.

Li Jifeng thought for a while and asked Schneider in as tactful a way as possible: "Mr. Shi, may I venture to ask, how confident are you in developing Qiongbei?"

Schneider put down the tea cup in his hand, looked at Li Jifeng with a half-smile and said: "If I say that the confidence is not too great, are you going to give up cooperation with us, Boss Li?"

"This..." Li Jifeng was shocked and quickly responded: "I have no intention of doing this. I just want to know more details and make this thing more beautiful."

Schneider smiled softly and said: "We won't hide things you need to know. We don't tell you some things for your own good. Knowing too much is not necessarily a good thing. Boss Li, what can be better than making money?

Is getting rich important? You think so?"

"Yes, yes, what President Shi said is absolutely true!" Although Schneider's tone was very relaxed, cold sweat began to break out on Li Jifeng's forehead.

Compared with the Ming government, the Haihan people were indeed more terrifying. Li Jifeng seemed to have temporarily forgotten this when he was weighing the pros and cons. Schneider's words reminded him again that the price of betraying Haihan would probably not be higher than betraying the Ming Dynasty.

Where to go.

Li Jifeng also knew a little bit about how many big businesses the people led by He Xi in the Guangdong Office had done in and outside Guangzhou in the past two years. Last year, the only time they borrowed people and troops from the Li family was to set up deployments in and outside Guangzhou.

Numerous secret sentries were sent to capture the Jinyiwei sent by Nanjing to Qiongzhou to investigate and deal with Haihan. For the Haihan people, there was really nothing they dared not do. At most, they just weighed the benefits and losses to see if there was anything they could do.

There is no need to do it.

Regarding people and matters that may affect Haihan's interests, Li Jifeng knew that Haihan had a special agency to deal with it, and He Xi from the Guangdong Office was one of the people in charge. He did not dare to risk trying to betray Haihan people, because this

Someone has tried this kind of thing for a long time. Last year, a big business owner in Guangzhou City had a problem with the accounting settlement with Haihan's Ministry of Commerce. In anger, he wrote a secret letter to accuse Haihan of smuggling arms and salt, but this letter

Only one day after the letter was submitted to the Governor's Office of Guangdong and Guangxi, more than 30 members of this family disappeared collectively from their house in the middle of the night.

No one knew how these people disappeared, but Li Jifeng could vaguely guess why they disappeared. Because a few days later, the Office in Guangzhou summoned a group of big businessmen from Guangzhou City to gather at a manor outside the city.

And showed them this informant letter. This kind of warning was far more effective than beating them in front of them. From then on, Li Jifeng no longer had the idea of ​​betraying Haihan, because he really didn't want to betray Haihan one night.

The whole family disappeared from this world without any reason.

Therefore, just by Schneider's question, Li Jifeng was already confused and did not dare to ask any more questions.
Chapter completed!
