Chapter 785 Cooperative Development
Anxi shook his head and replied: "You want more land than the Li family. They will definitely come to me for land later, and they will definitely want to suppress your family's limelight. With the cooperative relationship between Haihan and Furifeng, you say
Should I give it or not? After giving it, how will you treat me?"
Dong Yanyun naturally knew the origins between the Li family in Guangzhou Prefecture and Haihan. When the Haihan people first arrived in Shengli Port, the first place they did business with was the branch of the Li family's store, Fulifeng, in Yacheng
.After that, Furifeng participated in almost all the business activities hosted by Haihan. While using Haihan's productivity to continuously earn wealth, it also helped Haihan open up the market in the Ming Dynasty, Guangdong and Guangxi. There are countless businesses that the two parties have cooperated with.
, the people also regard the Li family as Haihan's number one spokesperson in the Ming Dynasty. The Li family has not missed any preferential support policies that Haihan can provide to its partners.
Under such a relationship, the Li family can naturally enjoy the treatment Haihan gives to other families. No matter how much land is granted to Xu Xinsu, the Li family cannot be treated badly. If these two families start to compare, it will definitely be endless. This principle
It's not complicated. An Xi clicked a few sentences and Dong Yanyun understood.
"In that case, please ask Mr. An to grant the same conditions." Dong Yanyun is not a person who does not know his sense of proportion, so he did not continue to struggle with this issue. In fact, a 150-foot-long dock plus 60 acres of land is quite a lot.
, you must know that the exclusive wharf he negotiated in Sanya was only thirty feet plus ten acres of land. If it were not for the example of the Li family, Dong Yanyun originally planned to negotiate according to the previous land acquisition standards.
Of course there is no problem with this. Qian Tiandun arranged for Dong Yanyun to come to Kaohsiung Port to inspect, originally to recruit Xu Xinsu to join. For such a large port, if there is not a large number of maritime merchants involved, how long will it take Haihan alone to do so?
Only in this way can the scale be built. However, Anxi is unwilling to grant too much land to these two companies at once because of its resources. It is because it is afraid that they will be unable to compete with each other. If they take the land but are unable to develop it, it will slow down the port.
The overall construction process is over.
In one morning, I finally finished looking at the planning area of the "Kaohsiung Port Phase I Project" mentioned by Anxi. This area alone is almost as big as Sanya Port, and it is only about five minutes of Kaohsiung Port.
A range of one to one sixth. If you want to continue visiting areas that have not yet been included in the development plan, I am afraid that you will not be able to do it by horseback. You will have to take a boat and take the waterway.
During lunch, Dong Yanyun asked An Xi a question that interested him: "I heard that the natives here are very ferocious. Do you have any countermeasures?"
In fact, he had already asked Yang Yun this question once on the way to Kaohsiung, but Yang Yun's answers were all clichés and contained no practical information. Dong Yanyun guessed that Yang Yun might not know the specific arrangements in Kaohsiung, so he asked directly
Ask Anxi for answers.
"Cruel? This is the first time I've heard of this." An Xi was stunned at first, then laughed and said: "I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding. I wonder where Mr. Dong heard such rumors?"
"I also heard this from the Han merchants who came here in the past. It is said that these natives are fond of cannibalism and have many inhuman behaviors, which are very terrifying." Dong Yanyun told the rumors exactly as he heard them.
"Traveling merchant?" Anxi pondered for a moment and then thought of the possibility: "Is he a businessman who specializes in flip-flopping business between the Dutch and the natives?"
"Absolutely." Dong Yanyun's answer was not very clear, because Xu Xinsu had actually done a similar business in the early years, but because the natives couldn't squeeze much money out of their hands, they gave up quickly.
"Mostly in order to monopolize the supply of goods for the natives, they made up this scary story." Anxi explained: "The only valuable thing that the natives can trade is deerskin. I know that the senior officials
The Dutch in Hong Kong have been buying this thing, and the price is quite good. However, the natives have little information and can only exchange for what they want through middlemen. Although the transaction volume of deerskin is not too large, if
If you can monopolize the deerskin production in an area, the profits will actually be quite considerable."
Dong Yanyun is also a veteran of shopping malls for many years. He naturally understood what An Xi meant when he heard it. However, he had never thought of this possibility before and was still a little shocked after hearing it. The natives on the island have always been unruly and unruly.
It is not surprising that he is incompatible with outsiders and has all kinds of bizarre behaviors. He has never connected such rumors with business operations. He may still be suspicious when others say this, but the Haihan people have obviously already had a relationship with the local natives.
That's why An Xi was so sure that the rumors Dong Yanyun heard were wrong.
"So that's the case, I just listened and believed!" Dong Yanyun said with emotion: "At first I wanted to bring people to explore the environment of this place, but after hearing the rumors, I gave up the idea for fear of getting into trouble.
Unexpectedly…”
"Mr. Dong, there is no need to feel sorry. How much you can eat depends on how big your belly is. Let alone a few years ago, even now, if this place is given to the Fujian government for construction, how big of a scene do you think it can create? How many years will it take?
Build a port city? Can it have sufficient self-protection capabilities?"
Dong Yanyun was really at a loss to answer these questions. In terms of infrastructure capabilities, the Fujian government was at least a few blocks behind Haihan, let alone Xu Xinsu, who was still a businessman at the time. Even if Xu Xinsu was willing to pay at that time
If people work hard to occupy this place, if it is done well, it may be able to operate a smuggling port that is inconspicuous. If it is not done well, it may become a very ordinary fishing port like Stupid Port.
Of course, all this was on the premise that no armed conflict would occur. No matter it was the Dutch or the Eighteen Zhi, Xu Xinsu was unable to resist at that time. If he really wanted to operate a port here, he would probably only be able to do it after a little situation was created.
Being reduced to someone else's meal. Xu Xinsu, who was once so overwhelmed by Shiba Zhi that she couldn't stand up straight, should feel this very deeply.
Of course Dong Yanyun knew that Anxi was not really seeking answers from him, but was just using this method to remind himself not to have any unrealistic illusions - for example, Haihan actually gained control of this place through a mistake.
"Mr. An is right, but I think too much." Dong Yanyun did not shirk, and readily admitted his wrong idea. If you don't have regional control like Haihan, it will be difficult to settle down and do it.
Develop and colonize. If you are not strong enough, even if you can occupy this place in the early stage, it will change hands sooner or later.
"Mr. Dong, are you going to go south for a walk in the afternoon? Half a day is almost enough for a round trip in the harbor." Seeing that Dong Yanyun had given up, An Xi stopped pressing the issue and took the initiative to change the topic.
Dong Yanyun shook his head and said: "Since the area to the south will not be developed in the near future, there is no need to rush to see it. In my opinion, I might as well sign the relevant agreement in the afternoon, so that I can go back and report to Mr. Xu."
The "relevant agreement" that Dong Yanyun refers to refers to the operating method used by Haihan in the investment process, that is, both parties will sign a relatively detailed written agreement, which will serve as the normative basis for their cooperation.
For example, building a dock involves land demarcation, registration, construction, etc., which also involves details such as who will provide manpower and building materials. These contents are reflected in the new port investment activities brought about by Haihan's continuous immigration and colonization.
Standardized operating terms have been formed in the application. You only need to copy the corresponding content and fill in the blanks according to the actual situation. It is not very troublesome.
Since his counterparts in Guangdong have already taken the lead, Dong Yanyun can't wait to go back to Zhangzhou to ask Xu Xinsu for instructions before making a decision. If it is delayed for a few more days, it is uncertain how the situation will change, so it is better to sign the cooperation agreement first to get reassurance.
Eat it before you put it in your mouth.
Anxi will naturally not object. The original invitation to the other party to inspect was for this effect. If the Fujian side shows a lack of interest, then Haihan will be anxious. As for the content of the agreement, it can basically be compared with the previous one.
It would not be particularly troublesome to dig out the agreement signed by Furifeng and copy it.
In the afternoon of that day, Anxi and Dong Yanyun respectively signed the "Draft on Joint Development of Kaohsiung Port" at the temporary port center of Kaohsiung Port on behalf of Haihan and the Fujian Maritime Chamber of Commerce. It was also a temporary agreement. Generally speaking, it only stated that the maritime
Han provided the land to Fujian, as well as the responsibilities of coordinating resources, armed escorts and other obligations. This draft was so rushed that Dong Yanyun signed his name before he even had time to enclose the land in the harbor.
"Specialists will pick out this land in a few days. Mr. An must leave the better land to my family." Dong Yanyun put down the brush and gave a special warning.
Anxi responded with a smile: "Easy to say, easy to say."
"In this case, Mr. Lao'an will send a boat to take me back." Dong Yanyun said goodbye to Anxi immediately after signing, not wanting to wait any longer for one night.
An Xi also knew that Dong Yanyun was eager to return home and had to rush back to plan related matters. At that time, he did not try to persuade Yang Yun to stay, and invited Yang Yun into the house and asked him to send Dong Yanyun to Zhangzhou immediately.
Dong Yanyun left Kaohsiung Port overnight and rushed back to Zhangzhou City the next morning. He didn't even bother to go home to rest. After getting off the ship, he directly called a car and rushed to the Xu Mansion in the city. Although he had already missed the trip before leaving Penghu.
He came back first to report the news, but Xu Xinsu must still be waiting for him to come back and report the specific situation.
"Sir, I'm glad you have lived up to your fate!" After Dong Yanyun arrived at Xu Xinsu's study, he immediately took out the draft cooperation agreement signed with Anxi and placed it on the desk for Xu Xinsu to review.
After Xu Xinsu took a quick look, she asked Dong Yanyun, "How is the local situation?"
Dong Yanyun responded: "More than a dozen trestles have been built at the local temporary wharf. Haihan has an armed fleet stationed there. The specific strength of the troops is unknown. In addition, Haihan has currently settled about two thousand people in the local area. The villain has witnessed it with his own eyes.
It can be seen that its determination to build a port is indeed not small. The villain took a brief look inside the harbor and found that the local conditions are really good and the place is large enough. The port conditions are better than those of Victory Port and Sanya Port."
"How did the Dutch and locals solve the problem?" Xu Xinsu asked curiously.
Speaking of this, Dong Yanyun not only blushed, because he was the one who gave Xu Xinsu the information and told how the local natives were doing. As a result, Xu Xinsu gave up on this excellent real estate project, perhaps out of scruples.
"According to the Haihan people, the Dutch have reached some kind of agreement with them. What I heard below is that the Dutch will exchange their population for peace." Dong Yanyun responded.
"The longer these red-haired people live, the more they go back!" Xu Xinsu snorted disdainfully: "Do they think they can protect their port with just population? It's just a matter of sooner or later! The population transported to Haihan
The more there are, the faster they die!"
"Your Excellency is wise!" Dong Yanyun quickly gave him a high hat: "While talking to the local Haihan officials, I can feel that they will not be satisfied with this, especially when there is competition under my nose.
The existence of human beings. Human trafficking can only prolong their lives for one or two years at most. If Haihan develops smoothly, it may be possible to advance this time much earlier."
"What about the natives?" Xu Xinsu did not forget this and asked again.
Dong Yanyun had no choice but to repeat what An Xi said. Xu Xinsu's expression did not change much after hearing this. She just nodded and said: "Even if there were no relevant rumors, I would not go to Taiwan to build a new port. Without it, we would
Even if they occupy the land, they will never be able to hold it. The Haihan people have always had a way of dealing with the natives, and their operation will definitely be much smoother than ours."
Xu Xinsu has now taken control of the military power of a province, and his vision is naturally much higher. He immediately pointed out the key to the problem, which basically coincided with Anxi's comments.
"Your Majesty is right." Dong Yanyun had already figured out the key when he was in Kaohsiung Port, so naturally he would not question Xu Xinsu's point of view.
"Has the Li family in Guangdong gone?" Xu Xinsu asked another question that concerned him.
"The Li family's wharf is already under construction, but they don't have many manpower and the progress of the project is relatively slow. If we hurry up, we can still seize the opportunity." Dong Yanyun responded.
Xu Xinsu nodded silently. He knew this without asking. If the Li family hadn't gone there first, Dong Yanyun wouldn't have needed to rush back in such a hurry and sign such a draft agreement with incomplete details.
"Today you go to the accountant and pay 20,000 taels of silver, so that your second uncle can select a group of craftsmen in Zhangzhou and set off as soon as possible." Xu Xinsu quickly made a decision: "You can decide on your own if you need it.
The list will be submitted afterwards. Although the Cantonese people move quickly enough, it is inconvenient for them to supply, and it is not convenient for us to allocate manpower. Let them enter the field first. This is probably the Haihan people's intention to find a balance."
