Chapter 107 The First Shareholders' Meeting of Dongguan Development Zone

Feng Ziyong asked, "Master, when will this matter start to be done?"

Zhu Hongsan thought for a while and said, "Second brother, you should do this first. Tomorrow, I will issue a notice saying that the government will requisition the land in Nancheng for development and see the reaction first. Then three days later, you are sending invitations to each company, saying that you will hold a meeting in the county government to allow powerful families to participate."

Feng Ziyong nodded.

Zhu Hongsan continued: "There is a notice tomorrow that the whole city will need a sanitation inspection in ten days, and let some merchants clean up the snow in front of the door. If the garbage in front of the door and the items occupying the road are removed in ten days, the government will help them get it done."

When Li Fugui heard that this was his job, he hurriedly said, "I can lead the yamen runners down to notify this."

Zhu Hongsan patted Li Fugui on the shoulder and said, "Old Li, do your best. Urban management is a promising profession."

Li Fugui felt that his body had been lighter by two pounds and hurriedly said, "Please rest assured, I will complete the task with quality and quantity."

When Zhu Hongsan heard that Li Fugui also learned new words, he laughed happily.

After discussing the big thing, the four of them naturally drank happily. Zhu Hongsan got a little drunk after returning home in the evening.

The next day, Dongguan County Government posted a notice as Zhu Hongsan said, saying that he would build a wharf in Nancheng and notify the residents of Nancheng to be prepared.

As soon as the notice was released, it immediately caused great turmoil in the entire Dongguan County. There were also smart people in the Ming Dynasty. It was not that they could not see the business opportunities at the Pearl River Estuary. It was just that development required too much money, and this was not something that only a few companies could do.

This time, a notice from the county government clearly told the people of the county that the government was going to take action to develop. Immediately, the big families in the county began to mobilize various relationships to inquire about details.

At this moment, the county magistrate Feng Tai-ye sent a letter to the homes of forty-eight landlords in the county. On the 19th of this month, he would invite the head of the family to go to the county government to discuss the construction of the wharf.

On the 19th day of the first lunar month, there were more people in the county than during the Chinese New Year. Some families who had not received invitation letters also sent people to participate. Feng Ziyong refused everyone and invited them to the mansion. In the end, the two halls could not hold on, so Feng Ziyong ordered people to clean up the lobby and had a meeting in the lobby.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the meeting officially began. Ma Jiyuan and Feng Ziyong came out to meet everyone with Zhu Hongsan.

Everyone recognized Feng Ziyong, the new county magistrate Ma Jiyuan had also seen him. The Ma family in Huguang was also the magistrate. When he saw the two of them coming out, the scholars with fame stood up and bowed, and those who had no fame quickly knelt down and bowed, shouting that they had seen the great master.

Even if everyone has never seen Zhu Hongsan before, they still think, who is this young man? It seems that Ma Feng and the other two have to focus on him.

Seeing Ma Feng and the others sitting down, Zhu Hongsan looked at the seventy or eighty people coming, stood up and stood in the middle of the ground and bowed and said, "Hello everyone, everyone. You may not recognize me. I am the son-in-law of the Ma family. I am Zhu Hongsan, lieutenant of Chufan Fengguo in Huguang."

As soon as these words came out, I was talking about it. Everyone thought it was a poor royal family. There were 180,000 lieutenants in Fengguo nationwide. Even if there were no 200,000 lieutenants, there were two royal families in Dongguan city, but they were almost begging for food.

Zhu Hongsan in front of him looked like he was begging, let me hear what he said.

Zhu Hongsan and others stopped talking and said, "I'll bring you good news today, which is good news for making a fortune. Everyone sees that our Dongguan is located at the estuary of the Pearl River. There are countless ships coming and going to Guangzhou every day, but they all go to Guangzhou. But what are they doing in Guangzhou? Who knows?"

Zhu Hongsan's move was indeed very powerful. From now on, all the local gentry in Dongguan stood on Zhu Hongsan's side, providing him with food and grass, soldiers, and some even died for him.

After the meeting in the afternoon, Zhu Hongsan and Feng Ziyong and Ma Jiyuan discussed for a long time, and finally decided to go to the refugees to recruit urban management team tomorrow. Then they began to demolish Nancheng.

Feng Ziyong asked, "Lord, there are more than 6,000 people in the south city. They all moved there to live?"

Zhu Hongsan said: "I have already thought about this. If you are young and strong, you can go to our farm to farm."

Feng Ziyong was just afraid that Zhu Hongsan would die, so he heard that Zhu Hongsan had an arrangement for them, so he didn't ask. As for what kind of work these poor people did when they went to do, it was not the matter that the county magistrate was worried about.

Then Zhu Hongsan talked about how to demolish it, and mentioned that no one here has any experience in demolition. After all, Zhu Hongsan was the director of the demolition office in his later generations.

Zhu Hong saw three measures, Feng Ziyong was sweating coldly, such as moving in the middle of the night, and traveling home without a house. The two of them were stunned by the various methods.

Zhu Hongsan despised: "This group of local rich men probably have never seen the highest level of demolition, so force it to demolish it."

After the meeting, Zhu Hongsan found Li Fugui and said, "Old Li, we will go outside the city to pick people tomorrow. Do you have any good candidates?"

Li Fugui said: "There are a few of them, my confidants in this county. Can the Third Master bring them with me?"

Zhu Hongsan said, "Yes, bring more of your own people. I am afraid that the refugees will be merciful and ruthless. Otherwise, you will take ten yamen runners to show off for the refugees tomorrow. Let them see how your yamen runners cause trouble in the village."

When Li Fugui heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "San Master, why don't you attract dozens of thugs in society? They are familiar with this."
