"The koi didn't seem to appear in the Bitang recently?" asked the middle-aged man.

"No." The young man hesitated.

"It seems that I have swam south. I heard that the water there has been relatively large recently."

"It should be." The young man thought for a while and said with some concern: "But yesterday, a batch of shrimps were sent to the south by big fish. It seems that they should have found that the water has been a little muddy recently, so they made preparations in advance."

"Don't worry, a few smelly fish and rotten shrimps can't escape the palm of the Dragon King."

After putting the fish sauce in the kitchen, the young man greeted the chefs, and then said goodbye to the middle-aged man and left. The sky outside the house was a little gloomy. The young man looked up and looked at it, thinking in his heart: "Do you smelly fish and rotten shrimp?" He immediately eliminated his uneasy emotions, walked to the door and saw the young woman sitting there.

"No flies?"

"No!" the woman smiled.

"That's good. The fish sauce is delivered to the kitchen, so let's go."

"Have the money been taken back?" The woman is not beautiful, but she looks very family-oriented.

"Well, uncle asked us to continue catching fish and make fish sauce."

The woman smiled slightly, nodded, took her husband's hand, and the couple left side by side.

Seeing Wang Yi coming back, Han Xiujing came up with a smile. Wang Yi said a few words to her. Lin Tae-hee rushed over and said with a smile: "Xiu-jing, look at the gadgets that the sir bought. Do you think it's fun?"

They are all small animal toys made of wood, including ducks, puppies, kittens, etc., which look very cute.

Han Xiujing reached out and pinched Lin Tae-hee's little face, then smiled and said, "Cute, but no matter how cute it is, it is not as cute as our Tae-hee."

Lin Tae-hee, who was pinched on her face, looked like a frightened deer. She frightened to escape from Han Xiujing's clutch, hid behind Wang Yi, and then pouted and grimaced at Han Xiujing.

Wang Yi finally pulled her out of her back, held her in his arms, and smiled and said, "Okay, okay, by the way, Xiujing, how are you preparing for the dinner?"

"Everything is ready!"

"Sure enough, we Xiujing is the most capable." Wang Yi teased.

"No, no." Han Xiujing shook her little hand and lowered her head, "Sir, I didn't help much, it's mainly because General Manager Wang is working on this matter."

Wang Feng was next to him at this time and quickly said modestly: "It's all Miss Xiujing who is guiding me, otherwise I really can't finish the preparations so quickly."

Wang Yi smiled at Han Xiujing and said, "Thank you, Mr. Wang, is in charge of the hard work."

The dinner started at 6 pm, but at this time it was just a few drinks before the meal, and guests could walk around and chat together. The main meal didn't start until 7:30, and Wang Yi would be officially on the road in front of everyone. In the past one and a half hours, he would only meet with local heavyweights to discuss issues about the development of North Vietnam and the situation in the nearby areas.

Wang Yi's study room is not small, although it is not as big as Ningdao, but it is not a big problem to accommodate more than a dozen people. Most guests will chat in the garden, and no one will come to join in the fun without any wits.

"Thank you all for coming here. I'll give you a drink here." Wang Yi smiled while sitting behind the wide boss chair. Lin Tae-hee, Han Xiu-jing, and Chu Yuan stood behind him, very quiet. The outside was taken care of by General Manager Wang Feng. Through the window, Wang Yi could see the busy figure.

The guests invited in the room stood up, and Han Shuqi, as the head of the province, took the lead and replied: "Chairman, you are too polite."

"Today is a private party. Everyone can relax without being restrained and can speak freely." Wang Yi said at this time.

Although he said this, others obviously respected him, the great god. There were actually no one who dared to speak. They were cautious, even Han Shuqi was no exception. So Wang Yi had to start the topic by himself and said: "North Vietnam is the most core area of ​​our Northeast Autonomous Region in the five Southeast Asian provinces and the leader in industrial development. You are all the leading figures of North Vietnam, representing the strength of our Northeast Autonomous Region in North Vietnam. If you encounter any problems, you can raise them here. I will do my best to help..."

After listening to the audience, you look at me, and I look at you, and you all seem to want the other party to speak first. However, a young man stood up and everyone turned his face to see that it was Wuyuan Qing, who was in the limelight in Hanoi and North Vietnam recently. After the Qing and French War, the Wu family began to invest heavily in the wind of the Northeast, actively responding to the call of the Northeast, and cooperated with Dashang Group many times in basic engineering. In Shen Yazhi's Red Heart Association charity business, there are also many sponsors.

Wu Yuanqing is one of the representative figures of the Wu family. This time he was able to represent the Wu family to attend the meeting with Wang Yi, and his status in the family can naturally be imagined.

When Han Shuqi first arrived today, everyone in the house had already introduced Wang Yi. Of course, remembering that it was another matter. However, Wang Yi was indeed impressed by the young man in front of him. After all, among a group of old men, this person was somewhat outspoken.

Wu Yuanqing seemed very well-educated and stood up and saluted Wang Yi slightly. However, what surprised Wang Yi the most was that the two girls behind him were rare beauty. Wu Yuanqing didn't even take a look at him, and he saw that he had good control skills.

"Hello, Mr. Chairman."

"Oh, Mr. Wu."

Obviously, Wu Yuanqing was also a little surprised that Wang Yi could remember his name. However, he was slightly stunned and then calmly said: "I heard that the chairman intends to build the railway from Guangxi and Yunnan to our Hanoi. I wonder if it is true?"

Wang nodded and said, "The railways between Hanoi and the coastal areas have been completed long ago, and the railways with Cambodia and Nanyue are also being built in a step-by-step manner. I do plan to extend the railway to Guangxi and Yunnan. I wonder what you think?"

When everyone present heard this, they were happy. Now North Vietnam and the Qing Dynasty exchange freight, relying on sea transportation on one hand, and on the other hand, relying on river transportation and land transportation. However, sea transportation can only solve the transportation to the southeastern coastal areas of the Qing Dynasty. Transportation in Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan mainly relies on river transportation and land transportation. The land transportation cost is too high and the transportation volume is too small. Cargo similar to large machinery cannot be transported at all. Water transportation is severely affected by the season, so it is obviously not enough to rely on. Therefore, the railways to Guangxi, Yunnan, and even Guizhou and Sichuan have always been the most important problem that needs to be solved in the five Southeast Asian provinces. However, because the Qing court and local people obstructed, things have not made progress. Today, when the king came forward, these people were happy.

Wang Yi looked at them at this time and shook his head.

Han Shuqi saw Wang Yi's actions and was a little puzzled, so he asked, "Sir, I wonder what your intention is to shake your head?"

"Don't think things too well. What I can tell you now is that the Governor of Yunnan and Guizhou Cen Yuying has agreed to my railway plan, but there is no news yet, the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi Zhang Zhidong and the Governor of Sichuan Liu Bingzhang."

Han Shuqi smiled at this time: "Sir, our trade in Guangdong and Guangxi can also be carried out by sea, and we are already grateful for your ability to open the doors of Yunnan and Guizhou provinces for us. Sichuan is still a little far away to us, and the terrain there is more complex. Even if we agree to our construction of the railway, investment will be a considerable expense."

Wu Yuanqing also agreed at this time: "Once the railways leading to the Qing Dynasty provinces, we will obtain a market that is far larger than the five Southeast Asian provinces, which is the most important to us."

"The people there are not rich. Apart from daily consumer goods, I think the market size of other products is still relatively limited. Whether it is worth operating is still necessary to consider whether it is worthwhile." Wang Yi reminded. But everyone is in a hurry now. Although they agree repeatedly, Wang Yi also understands that they have not taken it to their hearts.

Later China obtained the title of world factory through cheap labor costs. However, the consumption capacity of ordinary people was limited. Before the emergence of a large number of middle-class people, the only people who truly had the consumption capacity were those who became rich first. Whether these people were operating through honest labor and legal management is a matter of two different things. Putting aside these, the consumer market in later China was ultimately much larger than the current Qing Dynasty. With the current scale of the rich people of the Qing Dynasty, can it support the consumer goods provided by the five Southeast Asian provinces and become a market that can be operated? To be honest, Wang Yi was not optimistic. The big merchants' vision has always been aimed at Europe and the United States, which is the place worth operating at present.

Wang Yi did not say anything disappointing. Although he did not think the current Qing market was worth developing, it did not mean that the people in front of him might not be able to create a sky of their own in the territory of the Qing Dynasty. As the secret leader of the Northeast Autonomous Region, all he had to do was to help these people achieve their goals and at the same time protect their interests in China from persecution by the great powers and the Qing court. This was enough for merchants in the five Southeast Asian provinces.

As for whether the business is successful or not, everyone depends on their ability and their destiny will be fulfilled.

After the railway matter was discussed, another businessman stood up. His name was Nguyen Phuc Ying, who was a former Vietnamese royal family and was not considered a good man. However, during the rebellion of the former Vietnamese royal family in South Vietnam, he was clear-headed and rejected the other party's proposal of rebellion. Instead, he took the initiative to report and expose him. He is now a very prestigious figure in Hanoi.

The request he made was somewhat flattering, that is, everyone donated money to Shen Yazhi's Red Heart Association together, and all the proceeds were used for the disaster relief of the heavy rain in the South Vietnam region, while the excess was used for the construction of education in the North Vietnam region.

After this proposal appeared, I wonder if the people present were really interested in public welfare or simply to please the king of the Northeast in front of him. In short, the amount was so huge that it was completely beyond Wang Yi's expectations, so that these people thought that they had donated too much.

Fortunately, Wang Yi was also reciprocating his favor and distributed some of the municipal construction projects in North Vietnam to the people present. Of course, this matter was nominally under the guidance of Governor Han Shuqi.

After chatting with these people, everyone came to the garden. At this time, the person in charge of the North Vietnam region of the Northeast Intelligence Bureau suddenly came, and Wang Yi said, "Chairman, there is something."
Chapter completed!
