After meeting Zhang Dun, Wu Haogu knew that he would leave Kaifeng Mansion again soon.

Although Kaifeng Prefecture is the most prosperous and noisy place in the world, it is also the only city in which Wu Haogu, who has become accustomed to life in later generations, can find a little home in this era. But Wu Haogu knows that Kaifeng Prefecture is a city without a future! So he must leave and find the future of himself and this country.

The reason why Kaifeng Prefecture has no future is not because Wu Haogu believes that the general trend of ethnic minorities going south cannot be changed, but the geographical location of Kaifeng Prefecture determines that its decline is inevitable.

First of all, Kaifeng Prefecture is a capital close to the Yellow River. However, the Yellow River is not a natural danger that Kaifeng Prefecture can rely on, because the Yellow River will freeze in winter and there is no such flow or wide as the Yangtze River in other seasons. Moreover, there is a flat river on both sides of the Yellow River, and there is no danger to guard at all.

Moreover, the northern and southern Yanshan areas that could have blocked the Central Plains were thrown to the Liao Kingdom in the Five Dynasties. Now they have not been taken back. In the future... If history does not change, Zhu Yuanzhang will have to wait for him to take it back.

However, it is not the worst thing to guard Kaifeng Prefecture. The worst thing is that the Yellow River is getting higher and higher due to silt silt, and now it has become a hanging river! That is, the river surface is higher than the ground, and it depends entirely on the dam to ensure the safety of the plains on both sides of the straits.

In other words, once the areas along the Yellow River near Kaifeng Prefecture are captured by the enemy, the Yellow River will become a weapon to attack and open Fengfu City.

As long as the enemy calculates the location and opens the Yellow River Dam, the river will surging and destroy the tall city walls of Kaifeng Prefecture.

Therefore, building a tall city wall has no meaning to the safety of Kaifeng Prefecture City, unless this wall can block the flood of the Yellow River...

However, even if the city wall can block the Yellow River water, there are more than one million mouths in Kaifeng Prefecture!

Although Kaifeng Prefecture is located on the plain and there are many canals leading to the southeast, the flatness around Kaifeng Prefecture is due to the thousand-year farming. The geographical advantage is severe, it becomes relatively barren, and the output is insufficient to support the large population in the city. The canal also faces two major problems: the water level of the riverbed is lowered, and it requires a lot of effort to dredge and maintain the canal transportation.

Therefore, Kaifeng Prefecture itself has been the most troublesome problem for officials in the Song Dynasty since its founding, no one!

In Wu Haogu's view, Kaifeng Prefecture has a huge flaw, which determines that it is destined to have a brilliant future. Kaifeng Prefecture is a large inland city far away from the coastline. Although there are canals connecting the port cities of Haizhou and Yangzhou, the navigation capabilities of these canals are very worrying. It is already very difficult to maintain the current population size of Kaifeng Prefecture. If you want to support the future development of industry and commerce, you will be powerless.

Due to the above reasons and later history, Wu Haogu was not optimistic about the future of Kaifeng Prefecture.

Only when Lighthouse City on the border river and Haizhou on the east sea can develop into a future capitalist capital. If there was no Jingkang shame in history, the Central Plains would not decline rapidly, and the economic center would gradually move eastward to Xuhai and Tianjin areas.

Therefore, gradually moving the foundation of its own industry out of Kaifeng Prefecture and then implanting it into Lighthouse Market, Haizhou and Xuzhou is the grand strategy currently pursued by Wu Haogu.

However, this does not mean that Wu Haogu can ignore the industry he owns in Kaifeng Prefecture. After all, until at least twenty years in the future, Kaifeng Prefecture is still one of the most luxurious and rich metropolis in the world. Wu Haogu can obtain a large amount of funds from Kaifeng Prefecture for investment in Lighthouse City, Haizhou, Xuzhou and other places.

Therefore, before leaving Kaifeng Prefecture this time, Wu Haogu must arrange his own industry in Kaifeng Prefecture, and at the same time form a chamber of commerce that can support the development and construction of Jiehe Commercial City (Lighthouse Commercial City).

Wu Haogu’s career in Kaifeng Prefecture is currently mainly Christie’s, which has been established for more than a year. Of course, this business makes money, and it makes a lot of money!

The accounts of the business in July of the second year of Yuanfu that Su Dalang and Zhang Xizai just submitted showed that Christie's made more than 24,300 net profits in July! The operating income was as high as more than 37,000 yuan. In other words, the net interest rate was as high as two-thirds, which was a real money-making machine!

In addition, the amount of cash on the bank's books is also very large, exceeding 210,000 yuan! Half of them are prepayments, which are prepayments for the revenue of the "Courtessy" album business.

By the way, I don’t know what the pirated merchants of the Song Dynasty thought. When they pirated the album of "The Courtesan" in their original version, they would pirated the entire page without missing a single page. In other words, the twelve pages of tricks on each issue of "The Courtesan" album will appear on the pirated books. Therefore, the more pirated copies are sold, the higher the value of the tricks on the album of "The Courtesan" will be.

Now pirates have sold the pirated "Courtess" album to Lin'an, Mingzhou and Quanzhou! So the "Courtess" printed on the album have also transformed into famous stars in the Song Dynasty.

Similarly, Christie's Singing and Sales Store became famous with the pirated "The Courtesan" album and became the most dazzling star business in the Song Dynasty.

Compared with the two major business segments of singing and selling, the album, Christie's real estate development (real estate singing and selling business belongs to selling houses) has made relatively slow progress, and the experimental three-story "tube building" encountered many difficulties in the construction.

The building was finally built up, so I found a small worker from Christie's to try it out. After living there for less than a month, I encountered a lot of quality problems. What kind of drainage is blocked, the water supply is leaking, and the sound insulation is too poor. I heard it clearly next door! There are also people who cook a dish in the building and smell it... In short, there are four words: the experiment failed!

The time traveler will fail if he opens a golden finger! Wu Haogu is really a shame for the time traveler...

However, he heard people say since he was a child that failure is a successful mother, so he does not intend to give up real estate projects.

It is just that comprehensive adjustments must be made to enable Christie's to better develop all aspects of business.

The plan to adjust Christie's was prepared before the wedding of Wu Haogu. It was not until August 17, a month after the wedding of Wu Haogu, that it was officially proposed at the shareholders' meeting of Christie's.

Christie's will undergo a comprehensive restructuring, and each major business department will become a subsidiary company that can operate independently. At the same time, Christie's main store will be transformed into a holding company.

"The name of this holding company will be the head office of the Republic, and the shareholders will be in harmony and co-management."

At the shareholders' meeting held at the Christie's main store, Wu Haogu talked about his plan. He said: "As for the shareholders' holdings of the Republican Bank, they will still be the same as the original Christie's, and there will be no adjustments. In fact, it is just a replacement for the Christie's main store brand with the Republican Chief Store.

The new Christie's will be developed and expanded based on the original Christie's singing and selling house. The main business is singing and selling, not only calligraphy, painting, literature and entertainment, but also real estate, fields, cars, horses, bulk goods, singers, slaves, etc.

In addition to the new Book of Christie's, the Order of the Republic will also be established under the headquarters of the Republic. All the albums and engraving activities under the original Book of Christie's will be assigned to the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of the Order of

"Coordinate? Do you want to pay?" Su Dalang, the manager of Christie's, interjected.

"Yes." Wu Haogu said with a smile, "In the future, Christie's, the courtesan store will be a family for us, and for the managers in the two companies, they will be two families."

"What's the difference between the two families?" asked Mi Youren, a student of Wu Haogu.

"There are some dry stocks!"

"Doing stocks?" Su Dalang asked in confusion, "What about diligent stocks?"

"It's just that there is no need to invest, no right to attend shareholders' meeting, but there is money to distribute dividends." Wu Haogu explained, "These shares are not real shares, and cannot be transferred or inherited. Once they leave, they will lose their shares immediately.

In fact, doing stocks is used to capture the fake stocks that are important to keep the managers and important guys in the business world and make them work hard for the business.”

As soon as Wu Haogu explained, everyone understood, and someone immediately asked: "How many do we want to take out?"

"The Republic Headquarters does not need to implement the dry stock system for the time being," Wu Haogu said. "Chrissie's and the Courtesan must have dry stocks, and take up at most 20%... After all the dry stocks are awarded, 80% of the profits of Christie's and the Courtesan will be given to the Republic Headquarters, and 20% will be used for dry stocks. However, these dry stocks do not need to be awarded at once. You have to take your time and give shares to the most important person first."

The most important person is of course the backbone of technology and business. Now Christie's is developing very well. Many follow-up businesses have appeared, all wanting to poach Christie's backbone. If there is no dry-share system, many people will probably be pulled away.

All the shareholders of Christie's know about this situation, so they have no objection to giving out 20% of the profits to dry stocks. After all, the profits of the singing and selling and picture album businesses are still growing rapidly, and 20% of the "losses" will be compensated soon.

"In addition," Wu Haogudun paused, "The Republic Headquarters will set up several new commercial banks to be responsible for real estate, maritime trade, shipbuilding, winemaking and other activities..."

"Marine trade, shipbuilding and winemaking?" Ji Yi, who was a little absent-minded, was shocked by Wu Haogu's proposal and frowned, "Chongdao, there is an old saying in the mall that you don't know what to do... Do you understand marine trade, shipbuilding and winemaking? Are you sure?"

There are now three main business sectors under the Republic Headquarters, among which the singing and selling albums are profitable. Although the real estate has encountered some trouble, the prospects are very good. Even if the "experiment failed" tube building is built in Kaifeng Prefecture, it will definitely be sold.

In Kaifeng Prefecture City, as long as the price is cheap, there is no house that cannot be sold. Even if it is leaking, it is better than not!
