Chapter nine hundred and twentieth made a low-level mistake
"Chairman Li has a big appetite, and he dares to take advantage of my batch of Changlu salt. I don't know whether to praise you for your due diligence in government work, or to say that you are ridiculously ignorant!" Chen Mingxiang said lightly.
"Director Chen, as the actual person in charge of the salt taxation of the Ministry of Finance of the Jinling Government, I facilitate the entry of Changlu salt into central China and reduce or reduce the salt tax for you. This fully reflects my sincerity in cooperation. Since you said this
If there is an inside story, I would like to hear the details." Li Hongfei said.
His biggest trump card is the Jinling government’s urgent need for salt tax, which is a crucial revenue at present and a top priority that the Jinling government’s top officials pay special attention to.
Even traitors know the bitter consequences of printing money excessively. If one day the money is no longer money because of printing too much money, then this regime will not be able to survive.
But he seems to have forgotten that the Jinling government is not an autonomous government, but a complete puppet government, and the final decision is made by the Japanese.
Take the salt from the Lianghuai Salt Farm as an example. The annual output is hundreds of thousands of tons, but only 90,000 tons, or a quarter of the output, are given to central China. Does the Jinling government dare to say anything else?
"You didn't understand the nature of this batch of salt. You're talking nonsense. This is salt transferred by the Consulate General in Shanghai from the Tanggu Salt Farm of Changlu Salt Farm through the Consulate General in Peiping in the name of the salt shortage in Central China.
Do you understand what it means?"
"The sales rights of Changlu salt belong to the Japanese Consulate General in Shanghai. How I operate it has nothing to do with Huazhong Salt Company. As long as you are a salt merchant selling Changlu salt, you have no right to tax. They are on the implementation date.
Party’s decision.”
"If the original order is to be restored, what is the original situation? There is a massive shortage of salt in various places, the price of salt is rising rapidly, and the people do not even have the minimum guarantee. This prompted Japan to allocate funds from the Changlu Saltworks. You should stop dreaming.
"Chen Mingxiang said.
Saving the salt shortage is just an excuse. The inside story involved is very complicated. There is no need for him to explain it to Li Hongfei. He just stabs his heart directly. Changlu Salt is operated by the Japanese, and I am the one who executes it. If you have the ability, you and I
The Japanese go to theory.
"I admit that there is a shortage of salt in central China, but it has not reached the level of salt relief from the Changlu Salt Farm. The Jinling government has not made such an application. That is the behavior of Japan."
"As an agency responsible for implementing salt affairs, we cannot allow the market to be chaotic and allow anyone to sell salt at will, leading to the loss of industry order and damaging the government's tax revenue."
"As the main force in salt sales in Central China in the future, Huazhong Salt Company has the responsibility to pool all resources and utilize them in a unified manner. Anyone who sells salt in Central China must obey this overall situation."
"Only by creating an orderly environment can sales be smooth and prices be stable. This is also responsible for the people in central China and establishing a good image for the government." Li Hongfei said.
He just insists on making a fuss about the functions of the Huazhong Salt Company. Even if the negotiations are now at a deadlock, sooner or later the salt sales rights will be returned to the Jinling government. If the problem of the salt merchants is not solved and he wants to take back the rights in the future, it will be almost impossible.
impossible.
Zhou Hai frowned when he heard this. Li Hongfei was a little too ignorant. The two of them were brought together today to solve the problem of the gendarmerie detaining the salt dealer. At the moment, Chen Mingxiang has the advantage and can maintain the current situation.
That's great, but instead you focus on the Changlu Salt in his hand. Are you putting the cart before the horse?
"This is because Huazhong Salt Industry Co., Ltd. wants to acquire Huazhong Salt Industry Co., Ltd., and the Japanese's monthly quota has only reached 14,000 tons, which is more than 4,000 tons behind the actual demand. It used to be 7,500 tons per month.
, there is a gap of 11,000 tons between the actual demand and this is not even called a salt shortage. What is a salt shortage?"
"Chairman Li, I would like to ask you. The Lianghuai Salt Field claims to be one million tons per year. In good years, it was only more than 600,000 tons. Because of the war, it is less than half of that now. Do you have the ability to get the Lianghuai Salt Field from the Lianghuai Salt Field?"
Do you want to get to the current indicator?”
"Based on the current calculation, if you cut off my 10,000 tons, how much will you have left? You can't even get the source of goods. Open your mouth and shut up to be responsible for the people and consider the image of the government. Are you kidding?"
Chen Mingxiang was too lazy to talk nonsense with him and just talked about the data.
The peak period of the Lianghuai Salt Farm was in the Republic of China for more than ten years. At that time, the situation was relatively stable. At least the salt farm was not damaged by the military disaster. It could produce more than 600,000 tons of salt. There was also some smuggled salt secretly, which was claimed to be worth millions in total.
tons of salt.
However, by the 20th year of the Republic of China, the Huainan salt field of the Lianghuai Salt Field had declined and relied on the four salt fields in Huaibei to operate. Coupled with the war launched by Japan, the damage to the Lianghuai Salt Field was too great, and the output dropped sharply. Last year's
The total output is only 260,000 tons, which is equivalent to the Japanese army plundering 170,000 tons of salt last year.
If the Japanese army maintains a quota of 14,000 tons per month and wants to meet the most basic salt needs, the Huazhong Salt Company will have to ask the Japanese army for at least another 4,000 tons per month.
But Li Hongfei did not have the guts to ask for salt from the Japanese army, and he was not stupid. Under such circumstances, all his words were false. In the final analysis, he only safeguarded the interests of the old salt merchants and only got a chance to take back the salt sales of the Lianghuai Salt Farm.
Quan's reputation!
"The more this situation happens, the more important the salt tax is to the government. As a special official of the Jinling government and holding the high position of police secretary, you should also consider the government and make efforts to solve the financial difficulties." Li Hongfei said here,
The words were interrupted.
"I made the lowest mistake. I can't discuss people's livelihood issues with people like you. For the sake of the old salt merchant's selfish interests, you can just sit back and watch the salt shortage and pretend that nothing happened. What are you doing?
They dig holes for the Jinling government without considering the possible dangers caused by the salt shortage!"
"Today we are at the minister's house, and I don't want to embarrass you too much. Changlu Salt and the salt merchants affiliated with Haiyuan Salt Company are not something you can think of. You guarantee me the 10,000 tons of salt from the Lianghuai Salt Farm.
The well water on both sides does not interfere with the river water!"
"If you have the ability, just make this request to the Consulate General in Shanghai and put Changlu Salt under the management of Huazhong Salt Company. I can guarantee that if you put it forward, you will have nothing to do with Huazhong Salt Company. If it weren't for this time,
Because of the minister’s face, even you have to go to the prison of the Military Police Headquarters to eat cornstarch, and the Japanese side almost wants your head, and they don’t know whether to live or die!”
"Li Hongfei, let me tell you clearly, even if the Huazhong Salt Company is established, you, as the chairman, will only obey orders. What I say is the rules of the game and the order of the salt industry. If I can do it, you can't, and you don't accept it.
It just doesn’t work!” Chen Mingxiang fell out on the spot.
