The telegram was sent by Zhang and others, and it was really great news!

"In order to save national rights, Kai Kai launched a business war with Kaiping, and he shared the same voice and was willing to help..."

In the telegram, everyone told the aid plan in detail: Given that the current coal price is far lower than the market price, all enterprises are willing to use the actual coal purchase as the basis, and voluntarily donate 4 silver for each ton of purchase. If the price drops again, the amount of subsidy will increase simultaneously, so that the investment can use this subsidy silver to make up for the loss of coal sales in other aspects...

The first one to lead the signature was Zhang, and behind them, the Rong brothers, Yu Qiaqing and other Shanghai celebrities were listed.

"We are all comrades in constitutional parties. Comrades must support each other and go to the national crisis together..."

Zhou Xuexi was moved to tears. The bigwigs in the party who operated industries stood up to support him at a critical moment, which further strengthened his determination to fight to the end.

"Mr. Zhang Si is indeed righteous and deserves to be a constitutional leader and a huge industrial leader." Zhao Yuansi looked at the telegram several times, sighed, turned around, and quietly wiped his tears with the back of his hand.

It's a pity that the mines are not fighting alone.

"Selling newspapers and newspapers, the Imperial Daily published today reported a large number of reports on Kaiping and the fight for coal prices!"

"Extraordinary news, Extraordinary news, yesterday the constitutional party formed a 'supporting support team', and Mr. Zhang Si led the way..."

Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, Fengtian, Guangzhou... On the streets of major cities across the country, newspaper boys opened a new chapter in the history and geography of Chinese enterprises with their immature voices - no longer fighting alone but attacking in groups. Kailuan's struggle for profit and rights has won more support and sympathy.

The Empire Daily used a whole page to report on the ins and outs of Kaiping, the battles and the dark side. It made the telegrams jointly supported by Zhang and others to the public in an unchanging manner. The mouthpieces of the constitutional party such as Liang Qichao cleverly used the participants to express the meaning of the question:

"At this time of the war between China and foreign businessmen, the national interests and rights are supreme. All of us in the business community should share the same hatred against the enemy and jointly resist foreign humiliation. If we help Luan today, someone will help me in the future; if we fall today, someone will also fall in the future. Therefore, helping Luan is to help ourselves, and saving Luan is to save the country!"

"For 50 years, the Chinese and foreign businessmen have repeatedly ended in the defeat of Chinese businessmen. The inherent technology is not advanced enough and the capital is not strong enough. However, the reason is that the businessmen and people in our country are not united enough, and they are defeated by them... Although the mine is weak, if there are 400 trillion people enthusiastic assistance, it will always be strong; if there are few mine capital, if there are thousands of enthusiastic support, it will be at most."

The news came out, and the whole country was excited. A large number of patriotic gentry and businessmen were deeply infected. They followed the statement: "Coal has no borders, so how can coal companies have no borders? What we are fighting today is not the coal of mines, but the power of the country... If our people in China are unable to protect even a mine, what kind of face will it be to participate in world competition in the future?" In recent days, many Chinese businessmen have either published newspaper statements or made special trips to Zhou Xuexi, not only giving them moral understanding and support, but also actively expressing their willingness to join the support group.

At this time, due to the vicious competition of opening and opening, all other coal on the market have been unsold. Not to mention Henan coal and Xiangxi coal, which were originally costly, have been imported from Japan in previous years, and imported coal, which claimed to be of high quality and low price, have been gradually squeezed out. The entire Jiangnan industry has obtained excess "coal profit" due to the decline in coal prices - the reduction of the price of the two mines at any cost is equivalent to providing coal price subsidies to major enterprises, and on this premise, part of the profit is withdrawn to fund mines, preventing them from pouring out due to capital failure, which can actually extend the time to obtain excess profits.

Under such circumstances, it doesn't matter which company to buy coal. Whether it sells more or sells less, as long as it cannot get voluntary donations, it will be a loss. Either expand the market by expanding the losses, or reduce the losses by giving up. No matter which one is there, the initiator has entered his own dead end.

However, when a number of commercial and office enterprises stood up and shared the same hatred for the enemy, the official enterprises in Shanghai lost their voices at this moment, and the most prominent of the steamships China Merchants Group was the most prominent. China Merchants Group owned dozens of ships for shipping operations, and its daily coal consumption was large. It was the first major coal user. However, after Sheng Xuanhuai regained the power of China Merchants Group as the Minister of Posts and Communications Department, he not only did not consider aiding the mines that were both official enterprises, but instead exposed his complete foreign comprador nature.

After the "Aid Support Team" sent representatives to persuade him, he stayed in

The matter declared: "The so-called voluntary thing completely violates the essence of business and quality. Business warriors always win with the lowest price and the best quality. They are quick to discuss Huayang? China Merchants Group, however, considers the largest profits in the bureau, and has no time to split up other tasks. What's more, such blatant behavior is already unfair competition. If it attracts protests from outsiders, it is said that our country violates the principle of fair competition and causes diplomatic disputes, how regretful is it?"

Is Sheng Xuanhuai brainless? He actually said such words?

It turned out that Kaiping saw that the situation was already in trouble and started his own crisis public relations. The first person chose Sheng Xuanhuai and took advantage of Sheng's psychology of coveting the control of the mine. De Cuilin, Nasen and others sent secret representatives to make special guarantees that once Kaiping overcomes the difficulties, it would be required in public opinion that China would replace the mine with others to run it, and the preferred one would be Sheng. If the conditions are right, Kaiping would be willing to incorporate it into Kailuan to achieve the "famous reputation" of Sheng Xuanhuai's regaining the rights. It is also easy to discuss elsewhere - this is an implied bribery first.

Although Sheng Xuanhuai has always claimed to support China's commercial office, his so-called commercial office is not a self-reliant commercial office, but a reliance on others. He hopes that the commercial office under the charity of foreigners is actually a comprador. His most hope is to make up for the leftovers in places where foreign masters do not care about it. Those and other proposals are originally in line with his usual position and thoughts, and the terrible and illusory prospects of diplomatic disputes make him even more frightened.

Now with this guarantee, his mind is inevitably active. He thought that as long as he is unsustainable or causes diplomatic disputes, Zhou Xuexi would be a scapegoat. At that time, he would not only create a glorious image of "retrieval of rights", but also have the expectation of a sharp rise in the number of deposits in his bank account, so he made this statement.

This statement was not a big mistake. It is natural for enterprises to pursue maximization of interests. But Sheng Xuanhuai's mistake was that he was too urgent and did not judge the situation and see the whole story clearly. Think about this kind of sentence in his heart, but once it was said publicly, it would be very controversial. Especially when the crowd was in a state of turmoil and the patriotic craze was spontaneously forming, this inappropriate and excessively rational cold water can only give people a blow. This blow at the beginning not only cannot urgently brake for the people with nationalist sentiment, but has caused a negative effect.

When the news came out, the public opinion was in an uproar. Everyone regarded Sheng Xuanhuai as an alien. Some tabloids criticized him angrily: "It is really sad that both are official enterprises, have the financial resources of the country, and destroy each other at critical moments. It is really sad that they are so heartless and fearful of foreign countries. They actually speak in the court."

Overnight, the sound of overwhelming began to come out.

—

"What a wonderful thing!" After reading the report, Na Tong, who had been paying close attention to the development of the situation, slapped her thigh and walked in the study excitedly, "The big thing is done."

It happened that Xu Shichang came to visit and made Tong feel itchy with just one sentence: "Qinxuan, why don't you fulfill your wish if someone wants to target this?"

"Everything is ready, but I don't know what the holy intention is?" Tong smiled and took out a stack of materials, but it was reported by Liang Shi and others who had always disagree with Sheng Xuanhuai. Sheng Xuanhuai's bad deeds were all vivid in my mind, especially the false cost of nearly 10,000 yuan per kilometer when the construction of Huning Road was the most shocking. At the peak of Sheng Xuanhuai's power, he held the power of wheels, electricity, roads, and posts, and claimed to have "sixteen night pearls". The genius believed that he did not make a small plan for himself.

"Are all true evidence?"

"It depends on who will host it. If Cen Xilin presided over it, not only these are true, but there must be more true; if Zhang Nanpi presided over it, these are all false accusations." During the process of Hanyang Iron Factory, Zhang Zhidong and Sheng Xuanhuai had common interests. Tong pointed it lightly and revealed this special relationship. Even if Zhang Zhidong did not want to shelter Sheng Xuanhuai, he would definitely make Sheng innocent in order to avoid being implicated.

"Xiang Shuai is so sick that he may not care about it."

"That's easy to say. In fact, whether the evidence or not, as long as the imperial envoy is sent to Shanghai, the accounts of the Shipbuilding Bureau, and the private property of the Sheng family are more effective than any evidence."

"You're confident."

"Everything is ready, only the east wind is needed!" The eyes of the Tong that threw towards Xu Shichang were full of desire, "I don't know..."

"I'm the one who came to send the east wind." Xu Shichang smiled slightly, took out a wide note and handed it over, "Is the wind strong enough?"

When Na Tong saw it, she exclaimed: "It's strong enough, it's strong enough, it's blown down."
