People in the Republic of China start by building a top power

Chapter 702

Li Jingwei noticed Gu Yulin’s gaze and said casually: “Brother Gu should also understand that trade has developed in various places in the past two years, and Chongqing is the gateway to Sichuan.

This is not only the merchants from the southwest region, but even some merchants from the rest of the Jiangmian area will come to Chongqing to transfer goods here. ”

Gu Yulin nodded, he naturally understood this.

Today, there are four major inland commerce and trade cities in China, and one of the four cities in Chongqing is less developed.

But this does not mean that there is much less goods exchange in Chongqing. The reason why this place is not comparable to the other three cities of Jinling, Wuhan and Xuzhou is that the area it can radiate is too small, and it mainly handles goods entering and leaving Sichuan.

But in the southwest, Chongqing’s trade status has long been second to none.

After the two walked around, Gu Yulin was very satisfied with the development of Chongqing.A place to make a fortune.

Therefore, after returning to the Li Mansion, Gu Yulin opened the door to see the mountains.

“Brother Li, I know you want to develop outwards, but you have no way to do it. Gu has also run a business in Jinling, which can help Brother Li expand his family business. I wonder if Brother Li is interested?”

He came this time to find Li Jingwei to open the Chongqing market. Since Li Jingwei received him so frankly, Gu Yulin didn’t have to hide it.

But Li Jingwei didn’t expect Gu Yulin to be so straightforward, and was stunned for a while.

After reacting for a while, Li Jingwei asked, “Brother Gu is really quick to talk, tell me about your conditions.”

As a businessman, Li Jingwei knew that Gu Yulin would not give himself benefits in vain, and would definitely offer some conditions in exchange for benefits. Li Jingwei did not need to be vague on this point.

Besides, he does want to develop outward.

Gu Yulin smiled, “Brother Li and I just met, don’t you doubt my motives?”

Li Jingwei laughed loudly: “Hahahaha! Brother Gu is really humorous. You and I are both businessmen. Since Brother Gu has taken great pains to come here to find me, he must have heard about me.

Otherwise, based on Brother Gu’s knowledge, he wouldn’t have come to me to discuss cooperation so hastily.

(ajed) Since that’s the case, I’m going to tuck away with nothing to hide, don’t I? ”

“Brother Li is brilliant!”

Gu Yulin sighed in admiration.

Before he came, he did talk about Li Jingwei’s life.

From the mouths of some local businessmen in Chongqing, Gu Yulin learned that although Li Jingwei started out as a small businessman, he has always been very happy in business and never did any dirty thoughts.

Li Jingwei’s actions before, also precisely illustrate this point.

Then Li Jingwei said bluntly: “Brother Gu said, if you came to me to talk about development a year or two ago, I would probably refuse.

At that time, Chongqing did not become the prosperous city it is today, because the river was full of hidden reefs, and there were not so many merchant ships and goods on the Yangtze River in the past.

At that time, my family business was not as good as it is now, and I did not have such great ambitions.

However, since economic development has driven the prosperity of commercial trade, Huayin Group has specially dispatched people to clean up the reefs in the river with explosives in order to enable Chongqing to function as the gateway to Sichuan.

Since then, there have been more and more ship merchants on the river.

I also want to make money. Seeing that many ships from other places pull in countless goods, and transport all kinds of goods from my Sichuan area, go outside and make a fortune, I am also very envious! ”

What Li Jingwei said was the truth.

He started as a businessman at the bottom, and he has a knack for discerning people’s hearts.

Although he had just met Gu Yulin, Li Jingwei had no doubts about his vision. In his opinion, Gu Yulin was by no means a childish person, but a reliable partner.

Of course, the specifics will depend on future cooperation.

Gu Yulin had also heard about what he said about the Huayin Group’s bombing of reefs.

The three cities of Chongqing, Jinling and Hankou are all cities along the river, and many goods are distributed through the Yangtze River.

Two years ago, there were reefs all over the underwater area of ​​the Yangtze River. At that time, some merchant ships and freighters that came to the three cities to transport goods all sank because they hit the reefs.

In order to prevent this from happening and maintain the development and stability of the commercial trade of the three cities, Huayin Group specially dispatched a team to blow up the reefs in the river with explosives, making the current Yangtze River unimpeded.

And this further promoted the development of the three trading cities.

The river is safe to drive, and businessmen are naturally more willing to transport goods from the Yangtze River, which in disguise increases the total amount of goods distribution in Chongqing, Hankou and Jinling.

After an exchange of opinions, the cooperation between the two sides was basically reached by default.

Li Jingwei was concerned about Gu Yulin’s conditions and asked, “Brother Gu has not answered my question just now. What are the conditions for you to help me expand?”

Gu Yulin nodded: “The conditions are naturally there.

To be honest, Hankou, Jinling, Chongqing, and Xuzhou are the four most developed cities in the domestic inland commercial trade today.

And I do the resale of goods, so naturally I want to get a piece of the pie.

Now, I already have a business circle in Jinling, Xuzhou and other places, and I also have friends to help me, but I have never set foot in Chongqing and Hankou.

However, if Brother Li is willing to cooperate with me, things in Chongqing will naturally be easy to talk about. Now the only thing we need to consider is Hankou.

This is where the central part of Jiangnan and the north meet. It has always been a prosperous capital with extremely developed trade.

And I don’t have the spare energy to start business in Hankou and Chongqing for the time being, so I hope Brother Li can help me and help me establish a solid foundation in Chongqing.

As for the land of Hankou, we can send someone to investigate first, and then cooperate to establish a foothold there. After making a profit, Brother Li and I will divide it into fifty-fifty.

In this way, Brother Li doesn’t have to be on the sidelines any more, and I can get what I want, isn’t it beautiful? ”

“What Brother Gu said is quite reasonable!”

After listening to Gu Yulin’s thoughts, Li Jingwei couldn’t help but light up.

With Gu Yulin’s help, he can rush out of the circle of Chongqing, use Hankou as a springboard, and follow Gu Yulin’s example to expand his business to Jinling and even Xuzhou in the north!

Moreover, the places of Chongqing, Hankou and Jinling are in the same line in terms of transportation.

The Yangtze River outside the city is an important link connecting the three places.

And from Jinling to Pukou, you can go straight to Xuzhou through the Jin-Pu railway line, and you can do business in the north and northwest through Xuzhou!

This is Li Jingwei’s dream.

Chapter 837: Hankou – The Prosperous Land of Chu

The alliance between businessmen often does not require any emotional basis. As long as there is interest, they can ignore the closeness and estrangement, and strangers can instantly call themselves brothers.

Just like Huayin Group and the Eight Consortiums, they were each other’s enemies and enemies a second ago.Eyes can be united in order to carve up the interests of the island nations.

Li Jingwei and Gu Yulin also chose to join forces out of interest.

After the two sides negotiated cooperation, in the next few days, Gu Yulin and Li Jingwei discussed specific matters, and then the two parties sent representatives to Hankou for field inspection.

They are only hearsay about the development of commercial trade in the Hankou area, and the specific situation will only be known after investigation.

The two men went east along the Yangtze River and reached Hankou by water.

Gu Yulin’s subordinate is a close associate who has been doing business with him, named Wen Changsheng, while Li Jingwei sent a housekeeper of his own, named Li Wencai.

When the two entered the Hankou Wharf, they were immediately attracted by the situation here.

Wen Changsheng was okay, he was used to the prosperity of Jinling City, and was a little surprised by the prosperity of Hankou, but Li Wencai was different.

He has been in Chongqing for a long time and has never seen the prosperous world outside. Chongqing has developed rapidly in the past two years. High-rise buildings have been erected everywhere in the city, and wide streets have been built. He thought this was a remarkable thing. .

But seeing the situation outside Hankou City, Li Wencai just realized that his vision was really low.

When the two arrived at the wharf by boat, they were just in time for the peak unloading time here. They saw large and small freighters docked on the river near the wharf, and a slightly scattered queue was also lined up on the river.

The formation of these freighters stretched from the dock to the river several miles away.

Above the dock, there are countless workers busy unloading goods.

These workers are all supervised by some leaders, and shouts such as “Hurry up!” and “Work harder” come from these leaders from time to time.

Some of these people’s accents are from the north, some from the south, and some simply have the accents of Jinling and Chongqing.

As the largest inland trade city in the whole of the central part of the South and the top two in the country, Hankou receives goods from the central part of Jiangnan, Yunnan, Guichuan and other places as well as Jinling every day.

Especially in Jinling City, where the trade is too prosperous, some merchants who want to transport their goods to the north are afraid of delaying time in Jinling, so they simply go up the river and transport them from Hankou.

After all, Hankou is also connected to Peiping by the Beijing-Hankou Railway, so there is no big problem in transporting goods from here to the north.

After leaving the pier, the two entered the city together.

When they were in the city, the two rented a car and went to some markets in Hankou City to investigate.

Looking at the rapidly receding tall buildings next to the street, Wen Changsheng couldn’t help muttering: “Hankou is worthy of the title of “Second Jinling”, the prosperity of this city is almost catching up with Jinling.”

“Dude, what’s the second Jinling saying?”

Hearing the term “Jinling Second”, Li Wencai was a little puzzled.

Wen Changsheng touched his chin and said with a smile, “When I was doing business with my master in Jinling, I often encountered businessmen from all over the world.

Some of them have been to Hankou, and they all say that the trade here is prosperous, there are high-rise buildings everywhere, and the market is prosperous, which is not much worse than Jinling.

Because among these populations, Hankou became the “Second Jinling”. ”

“I see.”

Li Wencai nodded thoughtfully, he looked at the streets on both sides, his eyes kept wandering between the surrounding shops and buildings.

Compared with Chongqing, Hankou is more prosperous.

This is a densely populated place. It has been a prosperous capital since ancient times, and it is the prosperous representative of Chu.

It is also located in the Jianghan Plain, which is a fertile and affluent land. It has been a land of fish and rice since ancient times, and its economic and cultural development has always been in a leading position.

In the past two years, the rise of the domestic economy has made this important town in Chu more and more prosperous.

Like Chongqing and Jinling, Hankou is located along the Yangtze River, so water transportation is extremely convenient. It is also connected to the Beijing-Hanzhou Railway on land, which is the end point of the Beijing-Hankou Railway.

The goods and merchants going to and from Hankou can go straight down the river to Jinling, and go north along the Beijing-Hankou Railway to Zhengzhou and Peiping.

Therefore, Hankou has become the largest cargo distribution center in the central Jiangnan region in the past two years.

The development of commerce and trade has led to a rapid rise here.

Li Wencai and Wen Changsheng were sitting in the car, and all they could see were high-rise buildings. The buildings reflected mottled shadows on the ground under the sunlight.

There are many businessmen who come here to do business, and they all go in and out near the buildings, either in a hurry or in high spirits.
