Chapter 2570

Compared with local counterparts that are still trying to imitate, Qiong Lianfa already has a relatively mature operating model, and it has the support of Haihan Official Capital behind it. Tao Hongfang believes that it is unlikely that comparable private competition will emerge in the short term.

Opponent, but Li Fa thought that he thought things were too simple.

Li Fa said: "Xiao Tao, do you think that our colleagues want to imitate what we have just recently started to do? In fact, others have already been making relevant preparations. Business is not as good as the factories on Hainan Island. There are many secret technologies.

There are no secrets in this business. There are many things that are on the surface, such as how the firm under our name does business. An insider can figure it out just by paying a little attention, and then send someone in to learn it for three to five years.

, there’s nothing else I can’t figure out.”

Tao Hongfang said: "You mean, some colleagues sent people to Qiong Lianfa to steal the army?"

Li Fa smiled and said: "This is not a rare thing, and there is no way to completely prevent it. If we want to open a store in a certain place for business, it is impossible to transfer all the manpower required from Hainan Island. After all, we have to recruit people from the local area. This recruitment

It is impossible to check the identity and background of every person. After working in Qiong Lianfa for a few years and learning everything there is to learn, it is natural for him to quit his job and start a new business."

Tao Hongfang said: "The business model can be copied from others, but our country's commercial organizations have another advantage that they cannot imitate, and that is product supply. Most of them cannot get first-hand supply and can only become

Regional distributors are destined to be unable to compete on an equal footing with Qiong Lianfa."

Li Fa shook his head slightly and said: "Selling our country's industrial products will indeed bring huge profits, but not all big merchants will use this as their main business project. Before we came here, everyone was not making money every day.

Live well? On the contrary, the purchasing and selling channels controlled by many merchants are the resources we need to borrow. For example, the salt industry market resources controlled by Yangzhou salt merchants cannot be easily replaced by us launching low-priced salt.

When selling Han salt to inland areas, we have to rely on their channels. There are also many raw material purchases that are difficult for us to handle directly due to the origin, so we can only rely on middlemen to complete it."

"The advantages of operation are not one-sided. The so-called competition is not only reflected in the business model. Our country's business system is very advanced, but it is unlikely to replace the existing business system in a short time. Regardless of competition,

Or cooperation, in the future, old business models will coexist with our country’s business institutions, do you understand?”

Tao Hongfang and Ning Zijing nodded in agreement and thanked Li Fa for his advice. For second-generation people like them who stay in Sanya all year round, they really have few opportunities to come into contact with the outside world and understand the business conditions in unfamiliar areas.

Their understanding was mostly at the level of written information, and there was a serious lack of practical experience. The guidance Li Fa gave them could just make up for their cognitive shortcomings.

Young officials like them believe that since Haihan's business model has obvious competitive advantages, they should take advantage of it and completely replace the old business model. However, this one-sided and radical idea is obviously difficult to promote and implement in the former Ming Dynasty ruling area.

.Whether it is Shi Diwen, Wan Yan, or Li Fa, they have obviously chosen a more prudent approach, that is, cooperating first, and then gradually seeking changes, trying to subtly promote the business development of these areas.

From the current point of view, this approach should have achieved certain results. After all, according to what Li Fa said, not only did some people steal the company's example, but some businesses have begun to imitate the business model of Haihan Commercial Organization.

Li Fa continued: "I went to Yangzhou this time and had many discussions with local wealthy businessmen, and the harvest was not small. Let's take the salt merchants as an example. They have abundant funds, various connections and channels, and

They want to cling to the new owner, so they hope to take advantage of the change of dynasty to gain more benefits for their family...not just making more money, they also hope to get more opportunities to perform."

Ning Zijing immediately thought of the things Ha Jianyi mentioned a few days ago and asked, "Then they are not satisfied with just being businessmen and are planning to pursue an official career?"

Li Fa nodded slightly and said: "According to my observation, they have this idea that only if someone is an official in the court can they protect them!"

Tao Hongfang said: "After we arrived in Hangzhou this time, we heard that there are many children from Yangzhou salt merchant families in the army. Maybe these people can hold important positions in the army in the future. But is this a good thing or a bad thing? I

When your knowledge is shallow, you can’t understand something.”

Li Fa said: "Actually, it's not just the military. These big families have sent many of their children to study in Sanya under various names in the past few years. No matter what major these people study in Sanya, as long as they can pass the graduation exam, they will have a great impact."

There is a chance that I can find a position in the government."

The situation Li Fa mentioned does indeed exist objectively. Haihan's bureaucracy has always had a huge demand gap, but for the sake of safety and efficiency, it generally prefers to appoint talents trained by itself. As long as

If you can finish middle school in Haihan, you have a great chance of working in the government, and the background of these people is often only a secondary consideration.

For large families with rich family backgrounds, when they realize such a "shortcut", they will naturally try their best to send people to Sanya. As for the expenses required during this period, it is only a drop in the bucket for them, not to mention

Compared with the traditional way of becoming an official, this is much less difficult and expensive. The only risky and uncertain factor is that Haihan had not yet conquered the world at that time, and their behavior of hedging their bets may not necessarily lead to a successful outcome.

Satisfactory results.

Of course, now that Haihan has come to power and replaced Ming's rule, these early deployment measures are likely to bring unpredictable benefits to these families. Moreover, Haihan's demand for grassroots civil servants is much greater than that of military attachés. These personnel

As long as they enter Haihan's bureaucracy, the restrictions they may face will be much smaller than those of military attachés, and their development prospects will be better than those who serve in the military.

This immediately aroused Tao Hongfang's vigilance. He asked Li Fa: "Has this situation that uncle mentioned been going on for many years?"

Li Fa nodded and said: "Based on what I know, the Yangzhou salt merchants had already laid out plans in this area at least ten years ago."
