Great Entrepreneur of the Universe

Chapter 224 Is this how you understand the escort agency? !

June 6th Dragon Boat Festival.

When Wang Shouliang appeared in the director's office of the Zhujiang Instant Noodle Factory, it was already past nine in the morning. He had just returned to the Genesis Plane and stayed there for more than a month.

For more than a month, in addition to being very angry, I went to Zhou Zuer and other girlfriends to have in-depth exchanges of feelings. I also gave myself space in my pocket and exchanged goods.

After the mechanical equipment for the industrial assembly line production of [Pearl River Instant Noodles] was filled in the factory, after several adjustments, Mr. Wang personally led the team and taught the newly recruited literate workers step by step how to work and how to produce.

When he returned this time, he prepared garment-making machinery and equipment for industrial assembly lines, including some basic bicycle production lines.

In the Genesis Plane of 1993, Wang Shouliang... No, he stayed home for more than a month, and it was already February 1994 over there.

I won’t go into detail about these minor issues.

It took him a few seconds to adapt to the plane shuttle. He kept his body steady and listened to the movements outside. In the entire instant noodle factory, there was no longer any sound of military training from the Sihai Escort Bureau's operators and escorts.

Since recruiting workers and starting production here, apart from leaving some workers from the escort agency to work as security guards at the noodle factory, all the others have been transferred to the Zhujiang Garment Factory, Zhujiang Bicycle Factory, and Zhujiang Construction Factory.

As long as it is not a firearms exercise with live ammunition, it is not easy for the outside world to know the situation inside each factory under the cover of high factory walls.

Just when he was about to inspect the production process of the factory, the landline phone on his desk rang. After it was connected, Shi Aihua's voice came over, "Cousin, your noodle factory is ready for production? Can I go and take a look? ?”

"Brother Long and the others are also on vacation today..."

Wang Shouliang laughed and said, "Come on, you are welcome to visit and try some food."

The two-story factory office building is made of reinforced cement concrete. This building can not only be used for offices but also for living. The living environment is still very comfortable, better than many small villas.

When Mr. Wang went downstairs, he walked around the production workshop and guided some workers who were not yet familiar with production techniques. He walked around for more than an hour.

Shi Aihua came together with Ma Rulong, Dazui, Taibao and others.

Wang Shouliang arranged for workers to deliver a box of instant noodles. He opened the box and soaked it in boiling water. It was just a bowl of noodles. Taibao and Dazui almost bit their tongues after eating it.

Shi Aihua was shocked and said, "It tastes so good? This is unreasonable. It feels much better than the noodles I cooked carefully."

Ma Rulong didn't say anything, he tore open another pack and started boiling water.

Taibao sighed, "It's so easy to make and so delicious. If it becomes available in the future, who will go to a noodle shop to eat?"

These people will not consider the production capacity or profits. The technology and the seasoning bags and bread made by Henhuo, which are nearly a hundred years apart, are really sweeping and bombarding the taste buds of people in the early 20th century.

Wang Shouliang laughed and said, "I think it tastes good. Then when I leave, I will give you a box each."

The birth of this thing stimulated the supply and demand of military rations the most.

As for whether to make ham? Upgrade the Zhujiang Instant Noodle Factory to a Zhujiang Food Factory? It depends on the progress, take it step by step.

The next moment, as Ma Rulong, Dazui and others politely excused themselves, Wang Shouliang said with a smile, "By the way, Aaron, Dazui, do you know some people who are good at water, who reported to the water police but were not admitted, or some who have been working for several years?" Resigned and retired marine policeman??”

The two Zhenyuan and Dingyuan class ironclads are still the largest ships in the Far East at this stage. He is planning to annex the Luo Sangun team. It has been almost a month since he sent out 200 fast guns and three Maxims.

Luo Sanpao was still hesitating and considering, but it was Li Chujiu who traveled between Pirate Island and Hong Kong and Kowloon and met him several times.

Mr. Wang's patience is not bad, but he is not too tolerant of Ren Ci... Once the two ironclad ships arrive at Hong Kong Island in July or August and are handed over to him, Luo Sanpao will not join him at this big dock.

Then we can only send Brother Sanpao to the grave or into the sea!

The future Water Guards of the Sihai Escort Bureau certainly cannot count on Sanpao's group of pirates. He is sure to tame them, but recruiting good family members and good people is also a must.

Not only recruiting people in Hong Kong Island, but also in Foshan and Yangcheng.

The big ships and patrol gunboats come together and walk a few times along the Pearl River. They are not afraid of not being able to recruit people. After all, in order to make a fortune in this era, how many people have been deceived into boarding ships to North America and sailing across the ocean to die? ?

Ma Rulong was stunned, scratched his head and said, "What does Aliangqi want to do with these people??"

Wang Shouliang smiled brightly, "If my instant noodle factory sells well, it will also require a lot of shipping, whether it is to Haojiang, Bend or Thailand, or to Foshan or Yangcheng."

"What if we are robbed without skilled sailors and escorts?"

Ma Rulong and others suddenly realized, "You want to transport it yourself, instead of leaving it to other trading houses? That's right, you can make more money by contracting the transport yourself, right?"

"I actually know some people like this."

Whether it is Hong Kong Island in 1901, or 1951 or 1961, being a policeman or a policeman is something that many young people aspire to, and even need to pay bribes to successfully work as a policeman.

Before the Marine Police Commando was disbanded, in which year did a group of people not gather to sign up for police recruitment? Choosing the best of the best? There are also people who quit and change careers in public.

After Da Zui brewed another bowl, he smiled and said, "This is easy to say. I will introduce a group of people to come over and try it tomorrow."

Wang Shouliang laughed and said, "Okay, I won't let your work go in vain. Once the people you introduce successfully join the company, I will give you a black Xige Yingyang's hard work fee each."

Dazui shook his head hurriedly, "How can that be okay? No, I didn't do anything..."

Ten Ying Yang is equivalent to more than seven taels of silver. How much is his monthly salary? The monthly salary of regular soldiers at Yuan Datou's small station is only 4.5 taels. Those are regular soldiers who will go to the battlefield.

Wang Shouliang smiled brightly, "That's it. The same goes for you, Taibao. Aaron...Along, you also have to save money so that you can marry my cousin, right?"

Ma Rulong blushed instantly, scratched his head and changed the subject, "By the way, Ah Liang, we are planning to deceive Zhou Yongling and find out from him where Luo Sanpao's lair is."

"I heard that the guy surnamed Zhou still has business dealings with you? That guy is not a good person. Their company's ships have never been robbed by Luo Sanpao when they go to sea."

Wang Shouliang tapped the table twice with his fingers and said with a smile, "Before I established my cargo ships and fleet, I could only buy flour, starch, oil and salt from safer traders."

Is Ma Rulong planning to deceive Zhou Yongling? You must know that in the original trajectory, Ma Rulong grabbed the gown, took away the 100 Li's long rifles that Zhuo Yifei traded to Luo Sanpao, and fought to death with Zhou Yongling's large group of horsemen.

In this process, Luo Sanpao not only looted the Shantou passenger ship, but also killed seven and injured twelve.

They also robbed and kidnapped a large number of white people including a rear admiral from Yanlun.

In order to save the rear admiral, the high-ranking Gui Lao of the Hong Kong Police Force negotiated a deal with Zhou Yongling. Then Zhou Yongling was kidnapped by Ma Rulong and beat him up to force him to confess...

He wanted to annex the Third Artillery Department a month ago, and what he had discussed with Li Chujiu was that it was pointless to rob ordinary ships. Stop attacking ordinary people and small merchants. Instead, he would gain more by robbing the Japanese big ships.

Luo Sanpao has not yet agreed to join him, but he has not been robbing Chinese merchant ships at will this month. Ma Rulong scratched his head again, and dandruff began to fly. He was so frightened that Dazui and Taibao hurriedly ran away with bowls of instant noodles. He also said, "You are right. When opening a factory and starting a business, unstable sources of raw materials will also have a great impact. ”

"After all, it's still damn Luo Sanpao..."

"I will also introduce you to some good players who are good at water and don't get seasick as soon as possible."

………………

Two days later, the experts introduced by Ma Rulong, Da Zui and others who were good at water-based and did not get seasick came to the Zhujiang Instant Noodle Factory for interviews one by one.

Wang Shouliang also quickly received the news that Zhou Yongling had brought Luo Sanpao and Li Chujiu ashore. Sanpao still gave up after thinking about it for so long.

Just yesterday, the six gunboats that Kevin, Cliff and others helped purchase had arrived at a certain dock in Kowloon.

The Marine Police system did not know this information, nor did the Land Police system, but Zhou Yongling and Li Chujiu knew and confirmed it. After all, Wang Shouliang personally said that he wanted to buy Zhenyuan and Dingyuan class ironclads as early as a month ago.

Even if you haven’t seen it yet.

But there are 96 fast guns, a large number of Mauser C6s, more and more land raiders and escort groups, and gunboats in place.

You must know that last time, the Marine Police Commando only planned to send three gunboats to sea to attack the third artillery department.

These gunboats are small, but they are indeed real. The mobile forts on the water developed to cooperate with the fixed coastal defense forts on land, a water weapon for port defense in the late 19th century, can also pose a considerable threat to the ironclads.

Small boats resist cannons.

This is not something that a wooden sailboat can withstand, nor can it be easily handled by ordinary naval battles. There are 6 mobile turrets on the water, plus Wang Shouliang's many fast guns and Maxim machine guns.

Based on Luo San Artillery Department's current experience in gang warfare, if the main force at sea really faced the main force, it would not be difficult for them to die in one battle.

Regardless of victory or defeat, the Third Artillery Department will be crippled.

………………

Some time later, in the reception area of ​​the Zhujiang Instant Noodle Factory and the factory director's office, Zhou Yongling, Luo Sanpao and others were invited to eat several bowls of instant noodles with boiled water.

These few people also enjoyed the food so much that their taste buds exploded.

Wang Shouliang smiled and said, "Brother Sanpao, how many people are there in total at your place?"

Luo Sanpao hurriedly raised his hands and saluted, "Since Shopkeeper Wang thinks highly of me, a cripple, and gives me a chance, I can't be too ignorant. Just call me Sanpao from now on."

"There are about three to four hundred people on our island, and they are all the most capable front-line elites. Of course, the fighting method is definitely different from that of the Sino-Japanese War of 1898. We are far behind."

Wang Shouliang laughed and said, "Okay, according to their positions, my Sihai Escort Agency is divided into chief escorts, escort chiefs, senior, intermediate, junior escorts and escorts."

"The escort's monthly salary is 3 Yingyang, the junior escort's monthly salary is 10 Yingyang, and the intermediate escort's monthly salary is 30 Yingyang. They all have three meals a day. If they want to start a family and start a business, they will arrange dormitories as soon as possible and rent them to them."

"Sanpao, are you willing to come with me and become a bodyguard first? The monthly salary is 300 Yingyang, and there are many related benefits. Wait until the Sihai and Nanhai come back."

"How about you take the brothers and take charge of the Nanhai first? A Nanhai costs 175 million taels of silver. It must be led by a veteran."

"As for the waters of Hong Kong Island, including Hainan, Bend, and the Fujian coast, when Sanpao you are familiar with everything about the Nanhai, you can annex as many of your colleagues as possible."

Luo Sanpao was surprised and delighted, "Did the boss really buy the Zhenyuan and Dingyuan class ironclads?"

He was shocked that this guy really didn't brag. He could just buy it if he said he would buy it? Although this is more than 20 taels of silver more expensive than the Zhenyuan class purchased by Beiyang more than ten years ago.

But many times, there are some things that you can’t buy and own with money.

Compared to being in charge of a Zhenyuan-class ironclad ship, is this currently the first-class ironclad ship in Asia? If not first then second gear.

Once such a large ship is familiar with it and annexes more scattered pirate groups, then it can sail in the South China Sea, collect protection fees from the merchant ships of the island countries, and take care of it, even if the island countries bring the strongest fleet over...

That is another island country war!

They won the Sino-Japanese War, and there were a few more big ships here on Hong Kong Island. Are they going to have an island country war with a escort agency? Can the Japs afford the gamble?

Wasn't it because the late Qing Dynasty was too corrupt, so could the Jiawu Japs win the bet? ?

Wang Shouliang nodded, "As soon as July, as late as August, it will be delivered to me by the Yilun Navy. A group of people will be left to help you familiarize yourself with ships and modern naval warfare."

"I have not purchased other supporting supporting small and medium-sized ships, but if there is a war crisis, I will spend money to ask the Yanlun ship to help us fight a commercial war. After the Sino-Japanese War, the combat power of the Japanese Navy has increased a lot, and there are a few more Fuji, Shikishima-class battleship, but we are not afraid of trouble."

If something big happens and the Japanese have to rely on a few more Shikishima-class battleships with a displacement of more than 10,000 tons, Wang Shouliang will not regret the money and spend money to hire... It depends on what Yan Lun wants How much money do you want him to print?

Luo Sanpao was so excited that he was a little drunk before he even drank. As a pirate, what could be more exciting than sailing a big ship and fighting a commercial war that was as exciting as the other country's national war?

Li Chujiu was also very excited.

It was Zhou Yongling who felt numb. He once again felt that he, as a businessman, was a bit too shabby compared to Wang Shouliang, the boss.

You are an entrepreneur and industrialist who opens an instant noodle factory, a food factory, a clothing factory, and even plans to set foot in a bicycle manufacturing factory.

In order to facilitate the purchase and transportation of various raw materials and the transportation and sale of goods, it is a basic need to establish your own security team.

But is it too outrageous for you to play such a big role? ! Is this how you understand escort agencies? !

There are examples like you in the business community on Hong Kong Island. How can you let others do business with peace of mind and call themselves boss? entrepreneur? ?

Next, there was another detailed discussion. Everyone was very satisfied with the discussion. Luo Sanpao also began to confirm and ordered the horses from the pirate island's lair to go ashore. Everyone used to return to the island and enjoy the hot and spicy food. .

But issues like starting a family and having children are big problems.

It's different now. The most basic guard has a monthly salary of 3 Yingyang, and the junior bodyguard has a monthly salary of 10 Yingyang. The monthly salary of the junior bodyguard is higher than that of the training leader of the small station, but lower than that of the deputy platoon leader.

There are also other rental houses with low monthly rent, three meals a day, a uniform, extra benefits during the holidays, and holidays.

Is this a temptation that grassroots pirates can resist? !

Driving Asia's first-class ironclad ship to sail across the South China Sea and the East China Sea is also a temptation that no pirate can refuse.

Their pirate island can still leave some troops to serve as a midway supply station or a place for ambushes at sea, but most of the younger brothers, Ma Zai, have to go ashore to collect.

As long as Shopkeeper Wang gives him enough, it's no problem to change from a loose and free pirate to a sailor with strict rules and regulations.
