"Come on, go pick two more cooked apricots!" Wu Qinghou saw the rabbit and bleeded heavily when he saw it, "Give me a few more pieces of my chrysanthemums last year and soaked them in water for the young master!"

As he said that, he said with an apology: "It is said that food should be left, but there is nothing on this construction site and it is impossible to entertain the little master."

"I see that the Marquis raises a lot of chickens and ducks outside, and there are old geese in the pond." The British Duke deliberately teased him.

"No one here will be bald. My father and son are all looking at these chickens and ducks, imagining them like roast chicken and roast ducks to eat dry food." Li Wei blinked, and he had a thousand reasons to not treat them.

"Look at me for a few more times, my father used chopsticks to suck me, and scolded me for being greedy!" Li Wengui said angrily.

"Get out and mix the ashes!" Li Wei glared at his son fiercely, then smiled at Zhao Hao and said, "Let's go back and wait for the company to go public, please invite Xiaoge Lao to eat noodles at home."

"I'm sure this meal for the father-in-law of Taiguo!" Zhao Hao thought to himself, and he drew big cakes to each other.

"Your Ge, please tell me what to do with our Northeast Company?" Li Wei asked impatiently.

"Hey, how can the father-in-law worry about it? The biggest feature of the joint-stock company is that the owner and operator are not the same group." Zhao Hao smiled and looked at the British fairness: "If you don't believe me, please ask the British Duke, just take me as an example. I haven't returned to the capital for several years. Isn't Xishan Group doing it well?"

"Haha, that's not. We guys are just shaking the flag. Who knows how to manage the company?" The British Duke hurriedly smiled and agreed.

"Just just sit and collect money?" Li Wei said with wide eyes.

"That's not. Leave professional matters to professionals. Let's take the jobs of the people below. If you lose your identity, you may not be able to do it." The British Duke smiled and said, "Just sit up, eat, drink and have fun, and wait for the stock to go to heaven."

"That's great, it won't delay me from building the garden!" Li Wei said happily: "I have to do it!"

As he said that, he asked Zhao Hao with anticipation, "By the way, how much can our stock rise?"

"It depends on two aspects. One is whether the statement is beautiful or not, whether it makes money. The other is how the story is told, which makes investors feel whether there is room for growth in the future." Zhao Hao explained with a smile:

"The first one is easy to say. We set up a trading company, which can operate light assets and make any profit. As for the second one, it is my strength. At that time, let the three major groups help promote and hype it together, and it will increase by 180 times, just like playing!"

"Wow, then I'll just become ten million taels?" Li Wei was drooling when he heard it.

"Ten million taels are just the starting price. As long as you operate well, it will be doubled in three years and increase by five times in ten years." Zhao Hao fully reflects the characteristics of the Northeast company, which is that it is entirely up to fool. He described the infinitely beautiful prospects to Li Wei.

If someone else said these words, Li Wei would definitely spit on his face and scold him, why don’t you go to heaven?

But Zhao Hao said that, he couldn't help but believe it. Because ten years ago, Xishan Group, which was called Xishan Company, had a total share capital of only one million taels. Now the market value has reached 600 million taels. It has increased by a full six hundred times!

And there are Jiangnan Group, which is worth unknown how much, and Nanhai Group, which is definitely more valuable than Xishan Group.

This Northeast Company is completely unreasonable and can't make it...

"Don't leave at noon this day. We have nine dishes and one soup. I will give it to the young master!" Li Wei was excited and was about to treat him to dinner.

"It's better to obey your orders than respect." The British Duke agreed in one bite, not for anything else, but for the sake of being able to brag back and have to eat his meal.

~~

Soon, the food was served, a bowl of leek and egg soup, a bowl of coarse grain noodles for each person, and a pot of wine.

"Come on, let's eat. Don't be polite." Li Wei first scooped a large spoonful of leeks and eggs and added them to his own noodle bowl.

Zhao Hao and Zhang Rong looked at the soup bowl that was left with only leek leaves and even oil flowers, and their mouths were twitching.

"Is this nine dishes and one soup?" The British Duke said dumbfounded.

"You're not listening to it. I'm talking about leek leaf soup." Li Wei widened his eyes and said, "It's enough for meat, vegetables and pasta?"

"Uh..." The British Duke almost rolled his eyes when he was choked, "Drink."

So they poured glasses of wine, and the three of them clinked glasses. The British Duke tasted it, fuck, how much wine is mixed in the water?

The side-student Li Wei was still asking, "How is it, little master?"

"It's not bad, it's really a long aftertaste." Zhao Hao's speech became much more tactful. "If you taste it carefully, you can still taste the good taste of wine. I can drink this wine until I'm full."

"It's impossible to get drunk, it's just that I'm urinating a lot." The British Duke laughed.

"I can't work in the afternoon when I'm drunk." Li Wei smiled embarrassedly.

"Haha, right!" Zhao Hao slapped his head and said, "I almost forgot. I have to go to the Ministry of Rites to reconcile the accounts in the afternoon. This trip is to invite the father-in-law of Taiguo to go through the first."

As he said that, he took out a budget form from his sleeve and handed it to Li Wei.

Don’t look down on this bricklayer. Over the years, he has taken on many major projects and cleared the accounts.

Li Wei took it and looked at it, and couldn't help but frown and said, "The previous Lu King's crown firefight cost one million taels, but this time the son emperor's wedding was only one million taels?"

"One of the things that are engaged, not a big marriage; secondly, my father-in-law gave me this little budget." Zhao Hao smiled bitterly and said, "You can't pay for the public money by yourself, right?"

"Haha, of course not." Li Wei smiled embarrassedly, thinking that this is the emperor and he needs to increase the money. But the talks were so enthusiastic. If he made Mr. Zhao unhappy, wouldn't he delay the serious business?

If you weigh the two, it is more attractive to dream of going public.

But he had to ask clearly, and then suppressed the budget list: "When will our Northeast Company start?"

"It is better to choose a day than to meet the day. You can set the shares today. Next month I will send someone to Liaodong to manage it." Zhao Hao said happily.

"Then how much money I pay and how much share?" Li Wei asked nervously. It took him a lot of money to pay him.

"Let's do this, Tai Guofa doesn't have to make money, so you will convert your trading in and out of Liaodong into 20% of the shares. How about injecting it into the company?" Zhao Hao smiled and said, "The three major groups will each account for 20%. First, Northeast companies have to rely on their personnel and transportation capacity. Second, letting them occupy a large part will help enhance investors' confidence!"

"That's a company built by the three major groups, it's exciting to think about it!" Even the British Duke was tempted and said: "As soon as it goes public, it will definitely be very popular!"

"Yes, no problem!" Li Wei was overjoyed. He knew that those nobles only had a little share in Xishan Group, and he could exchange 20% of the shares for Liaodong's transactions. It was too young and old.

"What about the rest?"

"Will anyone see you have a share?" Zhao Hao smiled and said, "Take out 10% and give it to everyone in Beijing, and everyone will carry the flower sedan chair."

"Then the relationship is good." The British Duke was immediately happy and knew that he was indispensable.

"What about 10%?" Li Wei asked again.

"It's the final result," Zhao Hao picked up the wine glass, hesitated and put it down, "How about leaving it to your godmother Li Chengliang?"

"Hehe, it turns out that nothing can be hidden from the little master." Li Wei smiled embarrassedly and handed the budget form back to Zhao Hao.

"It's done, that's it!"

~~

The generals of the Ming Dynasty had no support in the court. Even Marshal Qi was a puppy under the sect of Xianggong Zhang. Marshal Li of Tieling was much more involved than Qi Jiguang. In addition to holding Zhang Juzheng's thigh, he also used a lot of money to open the way up to the Gaozhier of Wuqing Hou and recognized his eldest son as his godfather.

It is precisely because of this Liaodong general officer that Li Wei monopolized the transactions in and out of Liaodong. The Northeast Company wanted to gain a foothold outside the pass, but Li Chengliang's approval was also inseparable from Li Chengliang's approval.

Zhao Hao led Li Wei to build this Northeast Company and extended his tentacles outside the pass, to a large extent, to grasp the Northeast King.

Because Liaodong was the lesion that caused the sudden death of the Ming Dynasty, Li Chengliang was the culprit of the burning of the stove.

Yes, the demise of the Ming Dynasty was a joint effect of internal and external factors, and the most fundamental one was internal factors. For example, serious land annexation, population explosion, people have no place to stand, small governments have no control over the country, they cannot damage the excess and make up for the shortcomings, etc.

But it cannot be denied that external factors are catalysts and fuses. Therefore, the problems of Liaodong, Jurchens and Li Chengliang must be taken seriously.

First of all, the area where the Ming Dynasty effectively ruled in Liaodong was the Liaohe Plain. Most of the areas were military fortresses, and only the small areas of Liaoyang, Liaozhong, and Haicheng were truly prosperous. After two hundred years of reproduction, the Han people in the entire Liaodong were only about two or three million.

The chaos here is secondly, and the biggest problem is that it is too cold. Outside the pass, it is a bitter and cold place, and it is even more deadly after entering the Little Ice Age. Every year, only April to August, the spring season is in just a few months, and most of the rest is in the extremely cold weather of ice and snow.

The long and severe winter not only seriously threatens the lives of the people, but also causes Liaodong to have fertile soil but cannot be self-sufficient in food. Millions of soldiers and civilians must rely on the transportation of grain within the pass to supply.

In fact, it’s not bad now. At least one season of food can be grown. In another twenty years, entering the extreme cold period of the Little Ice River, it will be almost the same as Siberia.

Therefore, it is unrealistic to stabilize the Ming Dynasty's rule over the outside world by large-scale immigration to the Northeast.

Fortunately, Liaodong is now in its last strong period, and can achieve the same goal with clever efforts.

This period of strong period is closely linked to Li Chengliang. After defeating the local barbarians, the world of this warlord was already under the control of this great warlord.

As for the Jurchens, they are still in a state of being completely invisible.

Especially in the second year of Wanli, Li Chengliang led his army to eliminate the Jiannu leader Wang Gao, who had been in trouble for a long time, and escorted Wang Gao to the capital city Lingchi to be executed, the Jurchens became even more honest.

At the same time, the two grandsons of Wang Gao, Wild Boar Skin and Jirgalang. Two young men were taken as young men by him and fought with the army. They are still the two big-headed soldiers in the Ming army...

Mr. Zhao can move their heads with just one word. But what he wants to deal with is the entire Jurchen. He said before that killing them will not solve the problem.

The Northeast Company is used to solve this problem.
