The power of business is extremely powerful. This cannot be suppressed by a certain person or a country. It can be said that the progress of human civilization owes a lot to the power of business.
The essence of business is communication, the exchange of what is needed, and the improvement of the quality of life of both trading parties through exchange, instead of being a miser like Grandet, taking all other people's money into his own pocket, leaving others with nothing. Play.
Once a business becomes dominated by one party and attempts to force the other party to death, the game will change. Let alone whether there will be a war, this kind of unilateral dominance is inherently unsustainable and is against the laws of nature. .
Because this kind of thought and behavior is unreasonable. Trade is an interactive human behavior. If you monopolize everything, you will have no rival buyers, and the wealth will be accumulated in your hands. Others cannot carry out trading activities. Then The final result can only be to use a knife to rob you.
There are many reasons for China's seclusion since ancient times. Some are for security purposes, to stabilize people's hearts, to control thoughts... But one thing that cannot be ignored is the arrogance in the hearts of Chinese literati.
I am a huge country, the center of the world, rich in products and self-sufficient. Only you foreign devils are begging for my good goods, but I have nothing to ask you for.
It is this arrogance that makes them ignore the driving force for the development of human civilization, which is commerce and trade.
The overpowering economy of the Central Plains has caused the rulers to have a cannibalistic mentality. They always want to dominate the business and make all the money in the world. They can only get in but not get out. Do you think you are a brave man?
The so-called seclusion is actually just a relative concept. China has not been strictly closed since ancient times. During the most severe period of seclusion in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Europeans could also buy Chinese porcelain, silk and tea.
Kangxi and Qianlong did not close the Guangzhou Thirteen Banks in the end, so how did the legend of seclusion come about?
In fact, China's rulers are not closed-minded, they are just greedy. They do not respect the commercial trade that comes and goes, and they always want to be the only one who dominates this trade game.
There is always export but no import, which results in a serious trade deficit, a serious backflow of currency, gold and silver to China, and the final result can only be war.
In the final analysis, the outbreak of the war was caused by economic problems, and 90% of the economic problems were caused by trade.
This truth is too profound and cannot be understood by Zai Chun at his age. Xiao Letian looked at the confused Zai Chun and said with a smile, "Now do you understand why I want to bring the Duke of Newcastle into the gang? Didn't you all feel sorry for this before? Do you want some shares?"
"That's the problem, because the profit from this transaction is really too big. The daily turnover of 200,000 pounds will not be lower than the daily turnover of 100,000 pounds in the future..."
"With such a huge amount of money, can I live alone? Do you think the UK will let me take away thirty to forty million pounds a year in vain?"
"What caused the Opium War? Isn't the issue here worth pondering?"
"If you want to make money forever, you have to consider the interests of multiple parties. If we recruit the Duke of Newcastle to join the group, he can get the entire British aristocracy to join the group, and he can even issue stocks in the Financial City!"
"In this way, we will be integrated with the entire British aristocratic circle. We will be prosperous and suffer losses. Only then will they allow me to continue operating with peace of mind year after year, and will not try their best to kill me!"
"To put it more clearly, I am relying on Chinese food to dig out wealth from the British people, and then use the British's own wealth to bribe the entire British top brass!"
"Eat mine, take mine... I think no matter how shameless they are, they still have to give us ten years of peace!"
"Luo Huo! Aren't you the most emotional just now? Then you will be my representative to negotiate with the Duke of Newcastle. Let's make the Chinese food business bigger and stronger together!"
When the Duke of Newcastle enthusiastically welcomed General Luo Huo into his living room, and when he learned about the new plan of the head of state, the Duke, who was in the excitement of making money, almost lost his breath with excitement.
In Xiao Letian's new plan, the future development of Chinese restaurants will take two steps. One leg will stand firmly on the high end. These four stores in London will be used as a model to cultivate talents and explore experience, and then promote it to big cities in Europe.
At the same time, we cannot abandon such a large market of ordinary people. Chinese food must be made into fast food. Some classic snacks in Chinese food can be standardized and produced, and then supplied to the market in large quantities.
The delicious taste of Chinese food cannot always be locked in high-end restaurants, and ordinary people cannot have the opportunity to try it. Xiao Letian discovered that many snacks are very popular during the previous promotion of Chinese food festivals.
For example, steamed buns, siomai, pancakes, dumplings, fried rice, etc. These delicacies that are not high in cost and easy to produce in a standardized way can be promoted through the fast food restaurant model.
What makes the Duke of Newcastle even more excited is that Xiao Letian does not have absolute control this time. He hopes that this concept stock will be listed first and raise funds through the stock market to see how big the market can be in the end.
The popularity of this plan can be seen based on the scale of financing, and then the money will be used to invest in fast food restaurants. Xiao Letian only retains the first management qualification. Xiao Letian has to buy as many shares as he can in the market.
Of course, the Chinese have another treasure, which is the training of Chinese chefs. In the future, Ryukyu will establish a chef training school to train Chinese chefs that cater to the market for the entire world.
As long as the source of technology is controlled, the entire industry chain cannot escape Xiao Letian's grasp.
"Great, really great! I can already smell the smell of money. The key to this fast food restaurant is its large number, and it faces a huge population base. In the end, it will definitely make more money than a high-end restaurant!"
"The head of state is really a genius in business! I'm sure this stock will be very popular. With the promotion of our four restaurants, the Chinese fast food restaurant plan will also be popular in the market!"
"No, I want to go see my old friends in the Financial City right away, and I want to push forward this big money-making plan right away!"
When Xiang Ying heard about this plan, he said to Cai Bixia with great emotion, "The master has thoroughly understood human nature. The high-end restaurant he unites with is the British aristocratic circle, and the fast food restaurant is listed on the stock market, but it is to unite Countless British capitalists!”
"If the master is willing to let go of such a profitable business, then countless British capital tycoons will become shareholders on the same boat. For the rolling money, these capital tycoons will also have to show some kindness to us Chinese people!"
"Use the wealth of the British to bribe the top management of the entire UK, and in the end we can make a lot of benefits ourselves!"
"The head of state is really a heavenly being!" chapter;
