chapter 28

Holding a briefcase in his hand, Liu Hongsheng couldn't help but feel nervous when he entered the ** building.

At this time, wearing a suit, he looked no different from the senior employees of the company. He was wearing a customized suit and a leather briefcase. For the people in this building, this young man was difficult to attract their attention.

However, there are also a very small number of people who know that this "coal king" who made his fortune by selling coal in the agency company. There are not only one such person, but there are many such people. After all, for a company, he always needs to outsource appropriate profits to expand sales. Of course, what is more important is to expand the company's influence.

Therefore, some young people who graduated from Lianyun Business who are ambitious and want to show their ambitions will soon leave the company because of an opportunity and become agents of the company's products, so as to achieve the goal of getting rich quickly, and the company has always encouraged people to do this.

It is precisely with the efforts of those agents that the company's products can not only be sold to China in the short term, but also to Southeast Asia, the United States, India and other places. More importantly, those young people have tied themselves and the company together because of their success.

But among these people, Liu Hongsheng is undoubtedly an alternative. First, he is not from a commercial school, and second, he sells not industrial products, but raw materials. Even so, he has accumulated a lot of wealth. However, anyone knows that Liu Hongsheng's coal business cannot grow because the company's demand for coal is increasing every day based on tens of thousands of tons.

Today, Liu Hongsheng came to Lianyungang because on the one hand, he was thanked for the company's opportunity to realize his ambitions in the past, and for another matter. Of course, he also needed to express his opinion to the company. His loyalty was no doubt. Of course, this loyalty was loyalty to the company. A few minutes later, Liu Hongsheng came to the office of the company's general manager Mu. After the secretary passed the news, when he walked into the room, he saw that Manager Mu was stuffing some reports into a drawer.

Seeing Liu Hongsheng coming in, Mu smiled kindly.

"Kiding, you are here, sit down."

In fact, even if Liu Hongsheng cannot come, Mu will invite him to come by the end of the year. The reason is very simple. Because of the need for several newly built power plants, iron plants expansion, and ocean transportation, starting next year, the company will reduce coal output to Shanghai, which will undoubtedly have a great impact on Liu Hongsheng's coal business.

"Manager Mu!"

Sitting on the chair, Liu Hongsheng still seemed very respectful, and then placed a thick stack in front of Mu.

"Manager Mu, this is the land deed of 38,645 acres of land in the Shanghai Concession!"

In Shanghai, the acquisition of land for concessions was a task given to him by Manager Mu. When they acquired it, they found that it seemed that he was not the only one around him to collect it. Most of them were making great bids. Some people even used some rogue methods. In just half a month, all land for concessions changed their owners. Although he was a little puzzled by the company's acquisition of those "iron-core crops", he still quickly completed the company's entrusted to him.

This time he came here not only as simple as giving away a land deed. Since he persuaded Zhou Yangshan with the use of "the amount of coal paid in a year is worth billions of taels of silver", under Zhou Yangshan's lobbying, only a few of the fellow villagers were interested, but their interest was in coal rather than railways.

Railways are things that cost a lot of money, and they can't do it with just a few merchants, but they don't think about it. Without a railway, why should coal be transported out? This time, Liu Hongsheng wanted to take this opportunity to see if he could win the support of the company. Once the company supports him, even if he doesn't pay a tael of silver, the attitude of the merchants in Shanghai towards the railway will change immediately, and they will immediately change from hesitation to rush to...

The ** company supported nearly 100 companies before the war, which were all at the sight of everyone at that time, but now, those companies are not living in the Galaxy and making money. After this incident, I don’t know how many people want to take the ** company ship, but I just regret not having a chance. Fame, many times, reputation is money!

"Very good, thank you for your hard work!"

After putting away the land deed, Mu got up and left the desk. He signaled Liu Hongsheng to work with him on the sofa. After Liu Hongsheng sat down, he personally poured him a cup of tea.

"You came just right. I just looked at several company reports carefully and accidentally discovered this one. Last month, your company signed an overseas contract with Hong Kong. It seems that your business is getting bigger and bigger now."

Looking at Liu Hongsheng with a smile, Mu just laughed. For businessmen, the most important thing is profit. For more profits and more sales, Liu Hongsheng certainly hopes to sell coal to more places and sell more coal. However, for the company, coal mines are just "side business". They are just mining to ensure power and iron and steelmaking needs, and only export a portion of the coal that cannot be consumed temporarily. As for now, the company needs to first meet its own requirements and then consider exporting.

"Manager Mu, if it were not for the company's support and Hongsheng's current situation, Hongsheng would be able to have the current situation, and it would be entirely up to the company's strength!"

Liu Hongsheng quickly expressed his loyalty at the right time.

"Kedin, don't be so humble. It's the right thing to support the company, because you are the company's dealer, and it's up to you to achieve what you are now. Do you understand?"

Liu Hongsheng was surprised that Mu did not make any contribution. According to his understanding, his words should be quite helpful.

"Well, now that the European and Japanese countries' industrial imports have dropped sharply and exports have surged. Now many people want to invest,"

Out of concern for agents, Mu still hopes to help Liu Hongsheng complete the transformation of the company before cutting off his external exports.

"That's right, Manager Mu, there are new factories open almost every day in Shanghai, and three new power plants are built alone, and the demand for coal surges..."

Within three sentences, Liu Hongsheng still did not leave his true nature, but his words made Mu Zai smile in his heart.

"Keding, in the past two years, you have also saved some money when you are working in coal. How about it? If you are interested in investing in the industry, I can give you some suggestions..."

Mu's words only made Liu Hongsheng's heart slam, and he only woke up at this time. Manager Mu wanted him to leave the coal industry as soon as possible.

"Manager Mu, if you can give me some advice, it will naturally be a big business that makes money...just..."

Hesitating, Liu Hongsheng spoke.

"Now, the area along the river requires at least two million tons of coal a year, and a business worth tens of millions a year! I am afraid that I don't have the energy to intervene in other businesses!"

Although he didn't understand what he said, Liu Hongsheng was reminding Mu that if he gave up the coal business, the business would return to the Japanese. The market of tens of millions of taels a year would mean the outflow of tens of millions of taels of silver.

"Well...Kuding,"

Mu, who heard the hidden meaning of Liu Hongsheng's words, shook his head.

"Sometimes, when doing business, you have to learn to make choices. Shanghai needs coal, and the company......"

He pointed his hand towards the steel mill and Mu shrugged his shoulders.

"The third phase of Lianyun Steel Company has begun. By next year, the coal from the two Huaihe Rivers will probably not be able to leave Longhai. By then, your life will be difficult!"

While speaking, Mu handed an investment guide to Liu Hongsheng.

"This is the company's investment advice. The investment amount is less than one million. It is expected that the investment cost can be recovered within one year after it is put into production..."...

Listening to Mu's words quietly, Liu Hongsheng didn't say anything, and he looked at him and said.

"Manager Mu, I think...I want to run a coal mine myself!"

Self-run coal mine?

With a slightly raised brow, Mu looked up at Liu Hongsheng in front of him. His suggestion was something he said to his heart. In fact, if it weren't for the company's investment in factory construction, he also hoped to increase investment in coal mines. Although Lianghuai Coal Mine and small coal mines along the route could meet the needs of Longhai in the next three to five years, with the development of industry across the country, sooner or later, insufficient coal output will definitely become a bottleneck restricting industrial development.

He once made this suggestion to the chairman, which not only further increased the investment in Lianghuai coal mines, in order to double their output within three years. However, the chairman is now focusing on Shanxi. He tried to gather local capital in Shanxi, establish a series of modern coal mines in Shanxi, and transport them through the Beijing-Zhangjiakou Railway to ensure the use of coal in the north, thereby saving the company's funds so as to use the funds for factory construction. In order to accelerate factory construction, the company even compressed the construction of the field mine.

But now Liu Hongsheng's suggestion made Mu's eyes shine. Even though the company has no intention of further entering the coal field, it is possible to consider other capitals. Liu Hongsheng in front of him may be a good choice. However, in order to "exclusively" the coal mines of Lianghuai to ensure the company's energy security, Mu still gave up the practice of introducing external funds in Lianghuai.

"Oh, this is a good thing! How about it, where does the company need help? Is it exploration or technology?"

"Manager Mu, I'm going to hide the truth from you, I... I want to mine the coal mine in Ordos!"

Liu Hongsheng tentatively said carefully, but as soon as he said that he saw Mu frowning and his heart suddenly started to beat.

"Ordos!"

Hearing these four words, a nameless fire surged in Mu's heart. The reason is very simple. Ordos Coal Mine is a key coalfield explored by the company to ensure the supply of coal in the next few decades. The three major chemicals carried out by Gonghe Chemical, which the company belongs to, are nothing more than salting, coal chemical and the just-in-the-start petrochemical. The most important of them is coal chemical. Ordos is the company's reserve mine, but how did the news spread?

I think it must be someone in the company who talked too much! I had to rectify the company's employees, so Mu asked calmly.

"Kedin, where did you get this news?"

"this……"

A few dozen minutes later, Liu Hongsheng, who had left the company building, finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although he failed to get the coal mine in Ordos, he still got a coal mine in Hunan Province.

"In this case, only five kilometers of railways need to be built!"

As he thought so, Liu Hongsheng smiled on his face. Manager Mu pointed him at a location, which was only five kilometers away from the Guangdong-Hanzhou Railway. Although the northern section of the Guangdong-Hanzhou Railway has just been built to Changsha, there will definitely be no problem when the coal mine is built next year. You can transport the mining equipment with water, and build the mine while waiting for the railway to be completed. After the railway is completed, the coal mine can almost be produced.

While planning the future in mind, Liu Hongsheng's mind came to his mind. Now the Siming Chamber of Commerce is still discussing such a large project that requires tens of millions of yuan of investment. Although Zhou Yangshan is willing to come forward to help, he asked those people to spend tens of millions of taels of silver to build a railway that will only be invested in three years. They are obviously unwilling. At this time, those people are more willing to invest their money in factories, build one year, recycle them in two years, and run a business. It's like building a railway.........

Thinking of those people being so unsighted, Liu Hongsheng sneered in his heart and sneered at the short-sightedness of his fellow villagers. They are now making a lot of money, but next year, demand will increase next year and coal prices will rise, I wonder if those guys who are determined to start factories and make a lot of money can still laugh out loud.

"We have to think of a way to appease Mr. Zhou!"

Although he was helpless with his fellow villagers' short-sightedness, Liu Hongsheng was secretly grateful to Mr. Zhou's help. Although the coal mine had not been done yet, Liu Hongsheng had already left 20% of the shares for Zhou Yangshan in his heart. While waiting for a taxi in front of the ** Building, he accidentally looked back at the ** Building behind him. However, Liu Hongsheng couldn't help but think of the thing that he couldn't figure out - the land deed!

"Why did the company get the land in the concession? Is it possible?..."

"It seems that there is no harsh move, I can't get it anymore!"

Lu Tongren and Xiang Yangsheng looked at each other and wiped the cold sweat from their heads. They looked at Wu Yapeng with a confident look and vaguely guessed what he wanted to do.

Seeing the worried look on the two of them, Wu Yapeng laughed.

"Tongcheng, Zhiqun, in fact, the key to this matter is in the fish pond! You all know this in your heart! If we want to take back the land, we have to find a way to get Liang Laocai to move out of here. Why is he unwilling to sell land? Because half of his house is in the concession and half of the Chinese land in the British Concession in Tianjin, but half of the rented land in the British Concession in Tianjin are his homeland. Once he sells land, isn't it just a house? If we sell more houses, how can he sell it in the land? If he wants to sell land, he has to mess up the release pond!"

Tongren Lu patted Wu Yapeng's back of his hand.

"Section Chief, don't say anything more, or I'll go to the drug tonight! Even if you get into trouble, it has nothing to do with you. It's our business to deal with the release pond here. Just wait for the contract with that person after the holiday, and I'll come here too!"

His eyes suddenly opened and he looked at Lu Tongren. Wu Yapeng was stunned at first and then smiled.

"Look at what you said, we are businessmen, not rogues. We have to do this..."

As he said that, the three of them walked towards another house next to Liang's house. The next day, a derrick was formed in a courtyard next to Liang's house in the Ying Concession in Tianjin.

"Section Chief, is it really okay to do this?"

Seeing that the drilling rig began to drill the well, Xiang Yangsheng asked the subject around him with some uncertainty.

"Don't worry, as long as these three wells keep pumping water, within a week, the water level can be lowered by two meters. At that time, Mr. Liang's release pond......"

There was a smirk on his face, but Wu Yapeng was proud again. For him, there was nothing more important than land acquisition. But no matter how important he was, he was also a businessman, not a bandit, and he would not do anything to force buying and selling, but he could still use some tricks.

"A leaf tells autumn!"

Liang Shiyu, who was feeding fish by the releasing pond in the old Liang family's house, looked at the autumn leaves on the pond, but sighed that the Liang family had moved to this Tianjin Wei for almost a hundred years. Over the past century, the Tianjin Wei place has witnessed the decline of many prominent families, but the Liang family has seen no sign of decline over the years.

People learn to be kind, for Liang Shiyu, who is nearly 60 years old, his method of knowing to be kind is very simple. He turns the pond in his old house into a release pond, and buys fish here to release them every year. After twenty years, slowly, even the decent people in the British Concession knew that they bought fish here to release pond in Liang's house. Naturally, he would not object to this kind of accumulation of good deeds.

"You should be content!"

While feeding the fish and watching the scene of fish fighting in the pond, Liang Shiyu had a very contented smile on his face. Isn’t this releasing the pond just his thoughts, otherwise others would not have returned such a high price...

"The hardcore crops will be defeated one day!"

Thinking of the person who bought the land, Liang Shiyu smiled in his heart. Some people were always worried about their son. Didn’t the masters behind just want to leave some hardcore crops for his son while they were alive? The rent for this acre of land is 5 taels a year, 2,461 taels a year, which is more than 10,000 taels a year. Does he think that buying the land deed in the concession can be considered a hardcore crop? If he is a hardcore, how could he sell it? Maybe he will let go and his unscrupulous son will sell the land!

"Huh...what's going on?"

Suddenly, Liang Shiyu saw that the water line in the releasing pond seemed to have dropped a lot. It only took a few days to finish. It wasn't right. It couldn't drop so much in summer! Looking at the water falling down, Liang Shiyu felt strange, but he didn't realize that there was anything. The rise and fall of the pond was beyond the reach of manpower.

Another week later, when Liang Shiyu was still asleep in the new house in the concession, he heard the old servant shouting outdoors anxiously.

"Master, Master, it's not good..."

After half an hour, I entered the old house and came to the Releasing Pond. When I saw the dead fish in the pond, Liang Shiyu, whose face was pale, felt dizzy. The water in the pond was dry and the fish were dead...

The crying sound came into his ears, and Liang Shiyu, whose face was pale and as if he was lost, waved his hand powerlessly.

"Go and tell him Mr. Song, I sold the land......"

Many things are always like this. If you lose your thoughts, you will naturally lose the value of staying...
