But no matter what, the military is not willing to see an arsenal appear in the Americas or elsewhere that day, which means that the risk of rebellion in overseas territories has increased sharply!
The military has a very strong voice in the National Defense and Safety Supervision Commission. Without the approval of the military, don't expect to get approval from the National Defense and Safety Supervision Commission.
If this agency does not approve it, it will be useless if the other 17 agencies approve it.
Overseas mechanical mining is of great significance, and South China Mining Company does not dare to neglect it. It has already mobilized elite troops and established the American Branch of South China Mining Company based on the original American office to be responsible for coordinating local business.
It is worth noting that the elite soldiers sent out are, in the words of the person in charge of the South China Mining Company, high-quality employees with good roots, strong politics, and families.
Well, the report Hantong sent to Li Xuan also said that Hantong had made preparations in advance and had arranged manpower in the South China Mining America Branch. At the same time, he had also arranged manpower in the upstream and downstream, and would be comprehensive
Monitor every move of the branch.
Just like the previous monitoring of overseas sales of agricultural machinery and equipment.
Hantong will conduct comprehensive monitoring of these machinery and equipment transported overseas.
Of course, Hantong has limited manpower, and it is impossible to truly track every device in real time, and that is not what they are good at.
What they are good at is monitoring people.
Once it is discovered that someone in these enterprises is colluding with people with evil intentions, or colluding with the indigenous people, they will not waste any time and come directly to kill people.
Surveillance and killing are their strengths!
Including Hantong, many institutions in the empire were very concerned about the development of the Americas by the South China Mining Company this time. They did not care about the results, because they were afraid of making mistakes.
What basket?
I am afraid that one day these equipment will be found in the hands of the natives, and I am even more afraid that overseas lords will use these equipment to secretly build arsenals and the like!
All in all, it’s scary!
Many people in Jinling are paying attention and worrying.
The same is true for Feng Xinyuan!
In fact, even Miao Mingkun, the head of the American branch of the South China Mining Company, had his hands shaking after receiving the application approval letter signed and stamped by eighteen organizations.
Not happy, not excited!
It’s scary!
In the contemporary Tang Empire, anyone with a little knowledge knows that the empire attaches great importance to overseas areas and technology leakage.
Miao Mingkun, who is a member of the board of directors of South China Mining Company and also serves as the general manager of the American branch, knows the importance of this matter.
Before he came to America, he was warned repeatedly by many people that after the machinery and equipment arrived in the Five Lakes Province of America, he must do a good job in monitoring.
To ensure that even a screw is under the control of the company.
If a screw is missing, things could go terribly wrong.
It's hard to say exactly why it's not good, but Hantong will definitely come to the door in minutes. Can you get out alive if you fall into Hantong's hands?
He doesn't have this confidence.
After all, his background is not very clean. There are hundreds of thousands of Tang Yuan in cash in the safe in his hometown.
It is said that the banking system of Datang has been very perfect these days. No normal rich person would put hundreds of thousands of Tang Yuan in cash in the safe, and it is also paper currency.
Generally, the safe contains some cash, but more of it will be securities, such as bank cashier's checks, stock certificates, etc.
There is nothing else, only a pile of cash, and since he was born in a poor family, it is impossible for his father to leave him so much property. Although he has earned a lot from politics, he has not saved more than ten yuan.
The extent of Wantang Yuan cash.
So where did the money come from?
Well, after all, he is a member of the board of directors of South China Mining Company, from the third grade!
Others had to give him money, and if he didn't want it, wouldn't it be a loss of face for them? He couldn't put it off all these years, so he only received hundreds of thousands.
It's a pity that he didn't dare to spend a dime in public, so he kept it all locked in the safe.
Those censors were watching too closely!
He might be able to hide it secretly when collecting the money, but if he dared to spend the money lavishly and openly, the censor would come to arrest him in minutes.
Since I don't have a clean foundation, I naturally don't want to interact with law enforcement agencies, especially agencies like Hantong, and I am even less willing to go to Hantong.
He was afraid that he would not be able to come out alive if he went there.
To him, this application approval letter was like a life-threatening ghost in hell.
After returning to the branch office with the application approval letter, Miao Mingkun sighed several times. After pondering for a long time, he sent a telegram to many friends in the country and to a senior official of the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises with whom he was close.
Why are you sending a telegram? Of course you are trying to get transferred here as soon as possible!
For this reason, he did not hesitate to give up his identity as director of the South China Mining Company. As long as he was transferred, preferably back to his hometown, he would accept it.
In his opinion, the American Branch is a super bomb that can blow him up at any time.
Unfortunately, even if I sent a telegram back, I received a call back from my friend later, saying that he would help with some activities.
After all, Miao Mingkun was willing to give up his status as director of South China Mining Company. Many people were eyeing this lucrative position. He was willing to give up voluntarily, and many people were happy to see it happen.
However, this kind of activity also takes time and cannot be done in a short time.
At the same time, the impact must also be considered. After all, he has just been transferred here. If he is transferred out within a few days, it will be unethical and the South China Mining Company will lose face.
In desperation, he could only deal with many affairs of the American branch first.
All other matters are easy to deal with. He naturally has a large number of talents under him to handle them, so he doesn't need to worry too much.
But he planned to keep an eye on the batch of coal mining equipment that was about to arrive at Xinnan Port, otherwise he would not be at ease.
He knew very well that when this batch of mechanical equipment left the factory, almost every component had a serial number left on it.
In the past, in order to monitor important equipment such as steam engines, the empire only left marks on the entire equipment and key components, and registered them for supervision.
But now, almost every part of this batch of equipment will have a mark, even a screw...
It is said that in order to ensure the safety of the equipment, the National Defense Safety Supervision Commission will dispatch specialists to supervise the entire process, not only during the transportation process, but also during the subsequent use. The National Defense Safety Supervision Commission will be stationed and supervise the equipment.
And this is not free, but a paid supervision. Every year, the American branch has to pay a batch of defense supervision fees according to the size of the equipment, its importance, and the location...
