Chapter 960 Businessman’s Perspective (3)

After King Chu Chenyang calmed down, he sat down and drank a cup of tea.

Then he looked up at Wang Sen and asked, "Congressman Wang, you have conducted business inspections in various European countries.

From a businessman's perspective, tell us your views on European countries.

Chu can learn from the good aspects of other countries.

Chu must also reflect on the bad aspects of other countries."

Wang Sen heard that Chu King Lu Chenyang had already said this, so of course he did not dare to make up lies.

"The King of Chu and his ministers were conducting business inspections at that time, but they only briefly skimmed over some situations and did not have an in-depth understanding of them.

What I said is based on my own feelings, and there will definitely be deviations."

King Lu Chenyang of Chu did not let Wang Sen continue to talk.

He also knew what Wang Sen was worried about?

"Congressman Wang, please speak quickly!

Whether the relevant policies are implemented or not, I will discuss with the ministers, so you don’t have to worry about taking responsibility for this matter."

When Wang Sen heard the promise of Chu King Lu Chenyang, he stood up straight and recounted the story.

"I will first talk about the Song Dynasty. It is an extremely wealthy country, but the status of merchants in this country does not seem to be high.

Because officials of the Song Dynasty could directly set up companies to do business.

The Song Dynasty was a country integrating government and business.

Steel, minerals, telegraph, electricity, and tap water are companies that can bring endless benefits and have natural monopolies.

The empire and most countries are monopolized by government-owned companies, or are partially open to private companies.

The Song Dynasty was completely open to private companies established by these officials.

King Zhan Tie of the Song Dynasty wanted to create a powerful steel fleet.

He chose to give profits to the civil servant group and let them divide the Song Dynasty's assets.

It feels quite like the Song Dynasty. The king of Song Dynasty wanted to share the world with the scholar-bureaucrats.

The advantages and disadvantages of this system in the Song Dynasty are obvious.

The business of the Song Dynasty has been divided up by officials and merchants with strong backgrounds, and ordinary businessmen can only rely on these officials and merchants to act.

But the Song Dynasty had a lot of money and devoted all its efforts to developing the shipbuilding industry. It could build a steel fleet and arm its own navy as quickly as possible.

The Song Dynasty is isolated overseas, and it has a strong navy, so it will not be invaded by foreign enemies."

After Wang Sen finished talking about the Song Dynasty, he only saw Chu King Lu Chenyang shaking his head slightly, obviously not optimistic about the Song Dynasty's system.

He expressed his opinion: "King Chu, King Song did this, which shows that King Song did not have much ambition.

Chu’s waters will be safer.”

King Chu just shook his head and said, "You don't understand."

Wang Sen suppressed his voice immediately. When he saw that Chu King Lu Chenyang did not continue speaking, he immediately began to organize his words to retell the story.

"I have been to the Shu Kingdom, and it gave me the feeling that it has a strong sense of official status.

The status of officials, especially civil servants, is very high.

The officialdom of Shu seems relatively clean.

I have never had any contact with officials from the Shu Kingdom, and these information are purely hearsay.

The development of Shu's industry is also relatively simple.

They vigorously developed agriculture and its ancillary industries, such as grain processing plants, canneries, sugar mills, and oil mills.

There is also the textile industry, which generates money relatively quickly and is closely related to agriculture.

The most special thing about Shu is that there is no governor's office, and the Ministry of War is directly in charge of the army."

Wang Sen saw that after he finished talking about the situation in Shu, Chu King Lu Chenyang showed a smile on his lips.

He became more confident and continued: "Rui is our northern neighbor of Chu, and King Sulei of Rui is a prince.

The relevant policies of Switzerland are basically replicating the relevant policies of the empire.

Only when it comes to policies related to immigration and aborigines, Switzerland will make certain adjustments based on the actual local conditions.

The overall impression given by Rui Guo is that he is relatively rigid and does not have much vitality.

The country founded by three European princes all felt this way.

Chen speculated that this was too much imperial policy transplantation, that the policy was in conflict with the actual situation of the country, and that adjustments were not made in a timely manner.

King Rui has great ambitions. They are now focusing on developing the machinery industry with nationwide efforts.

Switzerland can now independently produce boring machines for artillery, steam engines for trains, and large clocks for daily use.

Even though King Sulei was not financially wealthy, he still promoted primary education.

Switzerland's preferential treatment for businessmen is the strongest among all countries.

I just said that the Swiss parliament has great power.

The country of Rui is developing very well, but I think the biggest problem for the country is that King Su Lei of Rui has an unstable temperament."

Wang Sen saw that Chu King Lu Chenyang was thinking deeply. The situation in Rui State should have touched Chu King Lu Chenyang.

He also hoped that Chu King Lu Chenyang would learn more about Rui's policies.

If he were younger, he would go to Switzerland to gamble.

He was now over fifty years old and could not stand up after this failure, so he chose the more stable King of Chu, Lu Chenyang.

Wang Sen saw that Chu King Lu Chenyang did not interrupt his narration and continued to talk about what he had seen.

"To the east of our Chu State are the Gui State and the Wu State.

The strength of these two countries is also very strong. King Qutian of Gui and Qi Gangyi, the king of Wu, are also making every effort to develop their armies and strengthen their country's industry.

Gui State and Wu State are two equally big countries, and one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers.

Since the founding of the Gui State and the Wu State, frictions between the two countries have continued, and now there are deep grievances between the two countries.

The two countries are desperately strengthening their heavy industries and preparing to build a strong army.

As the conflicts between the two countries Gui and Wu continue to deepen, they will definitely clash.

Gui and Wu made every effort to develop heavy industry, mainly military industry.

They no longer care about other industries.

Agriculture in both countries is dominated by farms, with little policy support from the state and all relying on the strength of farmers.

The development scale of the light industry in Gui and Wu is also very poor, mainly grain processing.

It was precisely in this way that Qi's textile industry and Tang's pharmaceutical industry had enough markets to develop.

But we must be wary of Gui and Wu, these two countries are developing too fast.

Once they feel that they and the other party are stronger, both parties will lose in a fight, and they will inevitably expand to the surrounding areas."

When the King of Chu Lu Chenyang heard what Wang Sen said, he snorted coldly.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "The strength of my King's Chu State cannot lag behind that of Gui State and Wu State.

King Qutian of Gui and King Qi of Wu were both generals at the founding of the country and had not led troops for a long time.

These two men know the relationship between the military industry and military strength, but they have no idea how to command a purely firearms army to fight.

I learned that Gui and Wu established a large number of artillery factories and firearms and ammunition factories.

They did not set up a tractor factory. Instead, King Shwe Sule set up a tractor factory.

In today's battles, victory can no longer be achieved by relying on trenches and a large number of artillery.

Whether it's a machine gun or an artillery piece, it must be activated.

This king commanded a chariot regiment and destroyed tens of thousands of European cavalry in a short period of time.

The war now is completely different from the war they thought it was."

Wang Sen saw the confident look of Chu King Lu Chenyang, and his sense of security was fully guaranteed.

When he heard Chu King Lu Chenyang say this, he immediately remembered that Chu, Yue, and Rui all had tractor industries.

These three countries are not big agricultural countries. They developed tractors originally to accumulate technology for tanks.

Wang Sen said in fear: "I have little knowledge. Please ask the King of Chu to punish me for my crime."

King Lu Chenyang of Chu saw that Wang Sen had a good attitude in admitting his mistake. He waved his hand and said: "Those who don't know are not guilty.

Congressman Wang, you are just a businessman, it is normal for you not to understand military affairs.

Don't say you don't understand. Gui Wang Qutian and Wu Wang Qi Gangyi don't understand either.

I'm just waiting to see their jokes now.

Times have changed, and wars are still being fought using the same methods as ten or even twenty years ago."

Wang Sen saw that Chu King Lu Chenyang had no intention of punishing him.

Only then did he feel confident and bold, and continued: "The national policy of Gui and Wu is to develop the army and military industry.

The military occupies a large amount of resources, and among the two countries, the military's voice will definitely be extremely strong.

If the state of Shu used culture to control military force, then the two states of Gui and Wu used military force to control culture.

I found that the national policies of these two countries were very similar to those of Cao State in America.

They should learn from Cao Guo’s policies.”

King Chu Lu Chenyang snorted coldly and said: "King Gui and King Wu still want to imitate King Cao.

King Su Lei of Rui was the nephew of King Cao Li Dazhuang, and he did not want to learn Cao's policies.

The situation of Europeans and Native Americans is completely different, and they are not afraid of acclimatization."

After Chu Wang Lu Chenyang finished speaking, he suddenly enlightened and said: "Gui Wang Qutian and Wu Wang Qi Gangyi have nothing to do.

They didn't expect that the other party wouldn't give in even a step.

The two countries have intensified their efforts step by step, and now the situation is hard to come back from. Whoever dares to take a step back will be doomed.

Now that the situation has developed to this point, they can only continue to maintain it and wait for the other party to collapse first."

King Lu Chenyang of Chu thought he had analyzed the reasons for the development of the situation.

Even if a full-scale war does not break out between Gui and Wu, a fierce conflict will definitely break out between them.

Wang Sen saw the eyes of Chu King Lu Chenyang drifting over, and he continued: "When I arrived in the Qing Kingdom, I felt very strange.

There was a sense of leisure throughout the Qing Kingdom, and they were still figuring out how to distribute the land.

There was neither large-scale immigration nor any rush to develop industry.

Qingguo seemed to have no sense of crisis and looked relaxed and at ease.

But I always felt something was wrong, because prices in Qingguo were out of balance.

The price of rice in Europe is about ten cents per pound, which is already a very high price.

The price of rice in Qingguo has reached as high as thirty cents per catty.

If the price of rice rises again, it will be the price of rice in troubled times.

Except in the big cities of Qing Dynasty, I rarely see mobile caravans in small towns. This situation is very strange."

King of Chu Lu Chenyang said with a smile: "Your feeling is correct. King Qing Jiang Zhiyu is leading the Qing army to suppress the indigenous rebellion.

Our countries are in dire straits and are trying our best to rebuild.

The Qing Kingdom has not yet ended this war, and King Qing will suffer.

The territory of Qingguo was occupied by the Ottoman Turks.

The empire captured the Ottoman Turks, and the locals immediately surrendered.

They originally thought that the empire would be the same as Ottoman Türkiye, ruling in name only.

When King Qing Jiang Zhiyu established the country, these indigenous people realized that something was wrong, and they immediately began to rebel in series.

King Qing Jiang Zhiyu will definitely kill him as a warning to others, he is currently quelling the rebels."

Wang Sen wiped the sweat from his head. Fortunately, he listened to the dissuasion and did not go deep into the Qing Kingdom.

Otherwise, he would probably lose his life if he got involved in the war.

"The ministers of Tang and Qi can also say this together.

Both countries were founded by princes. The two princes are younger and they rely entirely on the support of their mother's family.

The mother of Su Sheng, the king of Tang Dynasty, was of the same race as Qutian, the king of Gui, and they had a feeling of adversity when they were young.

Tang State actively moved closer to Gui State, but Tang Wang Su Sheng was not too radical. He was learning how to become a king.

The Tang State did not have the strength to invest in heavy industry, so it mainly focused on light industry and focused on the development of the medical industry.

King Su Ming of Qi did not move closer to any country, he was just quietly developing Qi.

However, due to the small territory and limited capabilities of Prince Su Ming, Qi's strength is average.

Qi State is now mainly engaged in the textile industry.

The state of Qi successfully tried to plant mulberry leaves and raise silkworms, and they planned to call it the silk producing area of ​​Europe."

King Lu Chenyang of Chu praised: "My two nephews, they do not aim high and develop the country down to earth.

The step-by-step expansion of strength, although slower, will be more steady, which is suitable for young people like them who are just starting out."

Wang Sen took advantage of the fact that King Lu Chenyang of Chu was happy. He said that the last European country and Chu's most vigilant neighbor was Yue.

"When I went to Yue, they were holding the imperial examination.

The article about Mi Youde's number one scholar was published, and I went to take a look.

Bai Yuangui, the king of Yue, was a very capable king.

Vietnam's industry and agriculture are developing well, and the local aborigines have been well appeased without causing too much trouble.

When the Yue State adopted the policy suggested by Mi Youde, they were not afraid of others knowing about it because it was a conspiracy.

Boarding schools were established in Vietnam, and all school-age children lived in the schools.

This policy mainly targets aboriginal people, allowing aboriginal children to isolate their parents and prevent their parents from instilling hatred education.

Aboriginal people trained in schools are much more loyal to their country than their parents.

Vietnam is also preparing to develop southward to obtain raw materials and markets from West Africa.

Vietnam has already begun to implement these two policies.

Mi Youde's third suggestion is to focus on developing a certain industrial field.

Before I left, the country of Yue had not made any big moves."

King Lu Chenyang of Chu said with emotion: "King Bai Yuangui of Yue and I were comrades in arms before, but now we are fierce enemies.

On the one hand, the State of Yue is good, and the State of Chu must learn from the State of Yue.

I really didn’t expect that just by holding the imperial examination in advance, the King of Yue would actually gain a great talent.

The Chu State’s current steel output far exceeds that of other countries. I am not afraid of competing with the Yue State now, and I will be even less afraid in the future.”

After Chu Wang Lu Chenyang finished his emotion, he looked at Wang Sen and praised: "Congressman Wang, you performed very well.

This time, I learned about the policies of some countries from the perspective of businessmen, and also discovered the shortcomings of Chu State.

Only when there are more people like Councilor Wang can Chu State usher in better development."

When Wang Sen heard the praise from King Lu Chenyang of Chu, he immediately bowed and saluted.

"All of these are things that I should do. If I look at these issues from a personal perspective, I will inevitably deviate.

I hope that what I have learned can help the King of Chu draw parallels, and I will be satisfied."

King Lu Chenyang of Chu smiled and said: "You don't need to be trembling in front of me. I am a very easy-going person. If you have merit, you will be rewarded."

Wang Sen took the reward from the King of Chu and respectfully left the palace of the King of Chu.

When he came to the street outside the palace, the breeze blew by, and he realized that his whole body was soaked with sweat.

He performed very well this time and was praised by King Lu Chenyang of Chu. He will definitely have smooth sailing from now on.
