Alien Arms Empire.

Chapter 472 Chapter 472

Guo Cheng is a businessman, a Zheng Guo businessman.

In the past, he was in the cloth business, owned his own workshop, and also purchased finished products from other workshops for sale, and was well-known in many places.

With the development of Zheng Guo's Westernization Movement, he also moved his mind, went out and bought a batch of equipment from Dongwan Island, and started Guo's Textile Factory with the help of the Westernization Movement.

At its most glorious time, the factory had more than 1300 workers and was the largest textile factory in Zheng State.

But with the outbreak of the war, his factory was also forcibly requisitioned by Zheng Tong, and even destroyed. Until the end of the war, the production capacity before the war was not restored.

Guo Cheng, who had been robbed of most of his family property, also became decadent. He was drunk every day, and he had long since lost the vigor of the past.

Although Zheng Guo, who caused him to lose his fortune, has died, and although Zheng Tong's family has not died well, Guo Cheng is still depressed and shows no sign of cheering up.

However, today he was summoned by the new ruler. A soldier of the Tang army came to his mansion with a gun and sent an invitation. He was so scared that he didn't even dare to drink anymore. clothes, tremblingly went to the city lord's mansion.

There was no way, he was afraid that if he dressed too well, he would be remembered by the government, and he was afraid that he would offend the adults in the government if he dressed too well, so he was very careful, and found an unremarkable dress to wear on his body, which was extremely cautious .

When he arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, he found that everything in front of him seemed strange.He saw many cars parked in front of the city lord's mansion, and there were all kinds of people coming and going, including soldiers and civilians.

A deep ditch was dug on the side of the building, and stone pipes were piled up beside the deep ditch. It didn't look like a secret road was being built, because it seemed that the pipes were really inappropriate for people to leave.

Before he could think too much, the soldiers leading the way urged him to move on.As he walked, he explained to him what the telephone line and the sewer main line were...

He has heard of wires, which are still used in his factory, and he has heard of sewers, but he has never seen them... But Guo Chengcheng really doesn't know what this telephone wire is.

Walking through the familiar and unfamiliar corridor, and passing the same unfamiliar and familiar hall, Guo Cheng came to the office where the former city lord worked.

This set of things was also learned from the Westernization Movement. The city lord used to work in the government office, and it was not so complicated inside and out.

The reason why I say familiar is because Guo Cheng has been here before, and he often deals with the city lord, so he often goes in and out of here.

Speaking of strangeness, it was because the original gorgeous paintings and furnishings were gone, replaced by various ladders, and the construction team screwing the lamp sockets on the wall.

As soon as he entered the room, Guo Chengcheng saw an ugly, artistic young man sitting at the head and dealing with a pile of documents.

Seeing Guo Cheng enter the room, the young man with raised eyebrows and lowered eyebrows and eyes with one big and one small introduced himself: "I am Pang Tong, the governor of this city... well, you can call me the mayor, or My lord consul."

Then he didn't wait for Guo Cheng to speak, and immediately said, "I called you here this time to inform you that your textile factory will start operation as soon as possible, and the scale will also expand..."

"Ah?" Guo Cheng, who hadn't recovered from his senses at all, was taken aback for a moment, and then questioned in surprise.

Pang Tong put down the pen in his hand, frowned and asked, "Is there any difficulty?"

In a way, his action made him uglier... uglier.

"I, my factory, wasn't quilt, quilt..." Guo Cheng couldn't react, because he never thought that his expropriated factory would return to his hands one day.

Pang Tong explained: "That was an order issued by Zheng Tong. We have canceled this order. We are contacting the previous owners to return all the factories he illegally expropriated."

"Return, return it to me?" Guo Cheng was taken aback by this statement. He has seen everything in his life, but he has never seen such a thing as a government debt repayment.

Pang Tongtong took it for granted and said, "Yes, you paid for the construction of the factory. Is there any reason not to return it to you?"

Obviously, Datang Group can still take over all the factories and eat the food of a country alone.But this approach couldn't mobilize everyone's enthusiasm for production, and it took up too much energy, so Tang Mo never planned to eat alone.

He wants to make the whole cake bigger, and then share the cake with everyone!Only in this way can everyone get more benefits.

Pang Tong's rhetorical question directly made Guo Cheng a little bit incapable of playing. He stood there in a daze, not knowing how to answer: "Uh..."

As a businessman from the state of Zheng, he really did not expect that the property he had taken away by the state of Zheng would be returned so easily by the state of Tang.

"What?" Pang Tong looked at Guo Cheng.

"Thank you, thank you." This time, Guo Cheng said these two words from the bottom of his heart.

Pang Tong nodded and accepted Guo Cheng's thanks: "Thank you so much, then start working quickly! I have visited your factory, and it can accommodate at least 1000 female textile workers..."

"Female, female?" Guo Cheng was taken aback, startled by this statement.

Pang Tong explained: "Yes! Don't worry, let me explain to you. It is safer to use female workers in the textile industry. This is Bunas' experience. Women are careful and adhere to safety rules. Advantage."

"But, but..." Guo Cheng still felt something was wrong.

On the other hand, Pang Tong was very calm: "Don't worry, I'm not here to trouble you! Believe me, I will send 20 experienced textile workers to your factory for training. Textile workers, you can’t hire a talented person even if you want, and make sure that all the female workers meet your requirements!”

"Then..." After talking about this, Guo Chengcheng had nothing to say - he had heard of the textile factory in Bunas, and he had also heard that the textile workers there were very good. If he didn't have this knowledge, he would What about the textile industry?

Seeing that Guo Cheng was appeased, Pang Tong added: "At the end of this month, I need you to resume production. Within a month, I need you to resume production, and then... double the production!"

"Ah?" Guo Cheng was a little stupid when he heard this, he didn't know why the other party was so anxious to resume production.

Pang Tong didn't say much, and directly put the purchase quantity in front of the other party: "You are in charge of production and quality control. As long as it is qualified, I will buy it according to the market price! I will buy as much as you produce!"

Hearing the other party talking about the acquisition, Guo Cheng suddenly became energetic: "Really, really?"

This is great news!Before, he was self-produced and self-sold. Whether the production capacity is large or not depends mainly on whether he sells well.

Now someone has bought all his cloth, and he is only in charge of production. How can this not excite him?money!That is a steady stream of income!As long as he works overtime and produces more, he can earn money that he never imagined before!
Pang Tong smiled: "I came to you just to lie to you once? Do you know how precious my time is? However, there is a prerequisite for all of this."

"Sure enough! Things are definitely not that simple." Surprised in his heart, Guo Cheng seemed to be a little calm again—there is no such thing as a free gift in the world.

Pang Tong stretched out four fingers and gave a deadline: "You have made money, but you can't take the money away! All your profits must be invested in reproduction, expanding the factory, increasing production capacity, buying machines, and training workers. ...In short, you need to expand your factory to ten times its original size within 4 months!"

Guo Cheng felt bad when he heard this statement: "What? Ten times? How is this possible? My lord, it's just equipment..."

"You don't need to worry about the equipment! I can apply for you! Blowing machine, carding machine, combing machine, drawing frame, roving frame, spinning frame... I will give you whatever you want!" Pang Tong naturally has this aspect of self-confidence.

The person behind him is the entire Datang Group!What equipment do you want?Do you want any technology?How much money do you want?
Guo Cheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Then, is this factory... still mine?"

Pang Tong said to him with certainty: "Yes! Finally, in this factory, you own 50.00% of the shares, and the state gets 40.00% of the shares! Your shares only have the right to dividends, and the sale needs to be negotiated with relevant departments."

"Here, give me half?" Guo Cheng didn't expect that the other party really planned to give him a huge benefit.

Pang Tong nodded: "Yes, if you expand ten times, I'll give you half of it! No matter what, you've earned it."

"Is this true?" Guo Cheng still couldn't believe it.

Pang Tong continued to nod: "It's absolutely true! I'll give you 3 hours to sort out the things and ideas you need and give them to me! Don't go back, just go to the meeting room next door and find a place with paper and pens ready That’s right, just ask the people inside. Let’s go.”

"Yes, my lord." Guo Cheng got up, turned back halfway, straightened his clothes, and bowed deeply to Pang Tong: "Thank you, lord."

And when Guo Cheng came to the meeting room next to him, he was surprised to find that there were already many people inside.These people are scattered in every corner, some are writing hard, some are biting their pens and thinking.

Guo Cheng knew these people, some of them were the bosses of the ironworks, some were the gold owners of the mines, in short, they were all reputable businessmen.

These people were forced to confiscate factories and mines in the last month of Zheng Guo's rule, but now they are all sitting here.Guo Cheng is not a fool, he has already thought that these people have experienced the same thing as him.

He just glanced at it, then hurriedly took the pen and paper handed over by the waiter, hurriedly found an empty seat and sat down, and began to write his plan.

While writing, a thought flashed through his mind: This Tang Dynasty, it seems, is not as unbearable as those landlords and gentry said...
