    Therefore, Jiang Beiming proposed in the memorial that the imperial court would come forward to attract investment, and Yulin Bay would provide technology to promote these enterprises throughout the continent.  In addition to charging a 5% industrial and commercial tax, newly-established enterprises also share profits according to a 33% to 40% ratio, with the Imperial Court and Yulin Bay each receiving 30%, and the investors receiving 40%.  Chongzhen hesitated after listening to Wang Chengen's report: "Is this method of sharing possible? The court has done nothing, and Yulin Bay can't get a penny out of it, but it wants 30%. Will anyone be willing?" "Your Majesty, Jiang Beiming explained  Let's solve this problem." Wang Cheng'en responded, "Your Majesty and the imperial court play the biggest role. Taking 30% is not much at all. Your Majesty, please think about how great your Majesty is to allow them to invest and make money, and it is only worth five cents.  Without His Majesty's grace, how can they earn money? It is their duty to be filial to Your Majesty." Chongzhen was flattered by Wang Chengen: "So what if Yulin Bay takes 30%?" "Your Majesty.  People in the bay reported that these things were actually made by the survivors of the Song Dynasty themselves. It is difficult for outsiders here to figure out that without their guidance, others would not be able to produce them. This is why they want a 30% dividend.  "Chongzhen's mood suddenly became a little low: "Wang Chengen, can we really not do it ourselves?" Wang Chengen did not answer Chongzhen's question: "Your Majesty, we are just a place in Qiongzhou Prefecture this year, and we are only doing business with Wu Sangui.  The business in Guangzhou has increased the income of the imperial court by one million taels. The servant thought that if these businesses were to be spread throughout the Ming Dynasty, within three to five years, the imperial court would be able to increase its income by tens of millions of taels." Chongzhen stared for a while.  He narrowed his eyes again: "I also know the benefits, what does the cabinet mean?" "Your Majesty." Wang Chengen knelt down, "This memorial was given directly to the slave by Jiang Beiming. Only the slave and Eunuch Cao know that the cabinet  They don't know yet, and this is where the servant is in trouble." "Show it to them." Chongzhen didn't say anything else. "I also want to hear what they mean." Jiang Beiming was giving Wang Chengen this memorial.  The time was actually very contradictory. On the one hand, Jiang Beiming hoped to start an industrial revolution in the Ming Dynasty and quickly bring the entire Chinese nation into a modern society; but on the other hand, Jiang Beiming had to worry that once the industrial revolution really started,  , the strength of the Ming Dynasty developed rapidly, then would Chongzhen still allow Yulin Bay to exist as it does now?  Where to go, Jiang Beiming really doesn't know.  After the time-travel conference, Jiang Beiming did not return to Beijing immediately. He had to attend a meeting of the Military Commission.  On the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, Jiang Beiming hosted a banquet for Xu Lang, Shi Xianyang, Liu Guannan and Sun Tianhao, and told them about the memorial.  "I wrote this memorial alone and gave it to Wang Chengen alone. The Cross-Travel Congress didn't know about it, nor did the Military Commission, nor did Zhang Hai and Pan Xuezhong know about it. In the final analysis, I am the only one who knows." Jiang Beiming finished speaking.  After these few words, he stopped talking and looked at the four people around him.  The four of them were a little surprised. Jiang Beiming was usually cautious in doing things. Why was this happening this time? How could one person decide such a big thing.  Xu Lang kept tapping his fingers on the table: "Beiming, let me ask you a question first. What is your real purpose of doing this? It can't be as simple as leading the industrial revolution." Jiang Beiming gave everyone a  Pouring the wine: "You are still smart, Xu Lang. To be honest, guiding the industrial revolution is one aspect, but I want to use this matter to distract Chongzhen. Chongzhen may not know yet about our attack on Vietnam this year.  Plan, but as soon as the spring offensive begins, Zheng Zhi will definitely send people to Beijing. Annan is still a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty. I am worried that Chongzhen will hinder our plan to conquer Vietnam, so I think as long as Chongzhen can earn money, he may.  You will turn a blind eye." "And you think that the Cross-Travel Conference will not approve your plan," Shi Xianyang said, "because the Cross-Travel Conference is thinking more about our own interests.  Most people think that it is impossible for Chongzhen to fall out with us yet. "Jiang Beiming nodded: "That's right, so I made a personal decision. And I think that even if Wang Chengen shows my memorial to Chongzhen, Chongzhen will definitely still consider it.  If you go to the cabinet, maybe they will start to fight." "But Beiming," Sun Tianhao said, "You violated the rules of the conference. You didn't think about your own situation last time.  Let Tao Min go, Wang Zhaoxing has proposed to remove you from your position as the highest military commander. Have you ever thought about the consequences once this matter is made public? " "I am a pragmatist," Jiang Beiming drank a drink by himself.  I feel that what I did should be right.¡± ¡°Everyone feels that they are doing the right thing.What you did is right. Doesn¡¯t existentialism mean that everything that exists is reasonable?  "Sun Tianhao wanted to continue arguing, but Xu Lang interrupted him, "Tianhao, what Beiming did was not a personal decision, nor did it violate the regulations of the time travel conference, because it was a resolution of the Military Commission.  " Several others, including Jiang Beiming, were stunned: "Is this a resolution of the Military Commission?  When did the Military Commission decide?  " "The day after tomorrow, the sixteenth day of the first lunar month.  "Xu Lang laughed first after saying this, "Beiming, there will be a Military Commission meeting the day after tomorrow.  You go find Zheng Jiang and Zhang Guodong tomorrow and tell them about this matter.  From the perspective of the spring offensive, there is nothing wrong with your approach. Just ask them to propose it at the Military Commission and report it to the Crossing Conference as a decision of the Military Commission. The Military Commission has this decision-making power.  " "Don't look at me like that.  "Xu Lang picked up the wine glass and turned it around, "Sometimes it's impossible to engage in politics without using some tricks.  Liu Guannan, who had not spoken much, smiled at Xu Lang: "Xu Lang, why are you like this now? Haven't you been shouting for democracy, equality, and freedom?"  " "Are you still qualified to criticize me?  Xu Lang also smiled and said, "Your patrol office has started collecting illegal money again. That Founder has already controlled two districts and will soon dominate the world."  I also heard that Ye Yan, this kid, has been running to the square Ruxianfang recently when he has nothing to do. There is a girl named Yan Hong there who is said to be pretty good-looking.  Liu Guannan put down his wine glass in shock: "Xu Lang, you went to work part-time in the security department?"  How come you know so clearly.  " "Don't forget, we also have the Third General Staff Office, and their information is no worse than Wang Hua's Security Department.  Xu Lang said, "Guannan, I really want to tell you something."  Founder has already controlled two districts, so you'd better find someone else for the remaining two districts. If there is only one boss, it may be difficult for you to control them.  " "I know about this, and I'm currently looking for candidates.  But there are a few locals who have suitable conditions, and I don¡¯t really want to use locals.  " "I do have a suitable candidate.  "Xu Lang drank another drink by himself, "You all know by now that we opened a bathroom in Yulinwan years ago, right in the business district.  The owner of that bathroom, whose surname was Li, came to our house after the Chinese New Year and wanted Yiyi and I to help him tell Luan Xu that he wanted to expand his business scale.  The key is that this boss Li is from Guangzhou, not a local.  I think Guannan you should pay attention to it.  " "Brother Xu.  Sun Tianhao asked, "I'm a bathroom owner, and I'm doing serious business. You want to trick me into this?"  " "The current bathroom is of course a serious business, but in the future it will expand in size, and the expansion will be to accommodate male customers. Once the bathroom becomes a bathing center, you think it is still a serious business.  "After Xu Lang finished speaking, he touched his ears unconsciously. "Stop talking about these things. Guannan will make up his own mind about these things.  "Jiang Beiming asked Sun Tianhao again, "Tianhao, please estimate whether we have the ability to provide personnel and technology if Chongzhen really agrees.  " "Beiming, I don't think about politics and military matters, I only think about trade.  Sun Tianhao replied, "From the perspective of business development, your proposal is very good."  Although we cannot immediately set off an industrial revolution in the entire Ming Dynasty, we can still do it in the south.  At least there will be no problem if it is only rolled out in Guangdong, Guangxi and Jiangsu and Zhejiang.  " "That's OK.  "Jiang Beiming raised the wine glass to everyone, "I've said all that needs to be said. Tomorrow is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. Let's have a good drink today.  " "That's not possible.  Xu Lang reached out and stopped Jiang Beiming, "There will be a promotion ceremony tomorrow morning. I will be promoted to major general."  You're not trying to get me drunk so I can't attend, are you?  " "Xu Lang, can you be promising?"  Jiang Beiming smiled and said, "A major general has excited you like this. You are still two levels away from a general."  " "Can I compare with you?  "Xu Lang touched his epaulette, "I gave you one star, but you already have three.  " "Okay, stop competing.  "Liu Guan Nan Duan Bei said, "Let's drink.  You must have more stars and fewer stars. When I got back, I changed the police rank of our patrol room and gave it eight stars, which is more than yours.  " On the morning of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Yulin Army's promotion ceremony to general officers was held in the open space in front of the Military Commission Building. The Military Commission is now independent of the Cross-Travel Conference, so after the Cross-Travel Conference approves the application for promotion to general officers, nothing more will be held.  The ceremony was held by the Military Commission itself. A row of senior officers stood neatly in front of the building. Zheng Jiang quickly walked up to Han Wantao and Zeng Guangxian: "General Han Wantao and General Zeng Guangxian, on behalf of the Military Commission, I have promoted the two.  With the rank of Lieutenant General of the Yulin Army, I hope that the two generals can continue their efforts and make new achievements for the Yulin Army.  " Han Wantao and Zeng Guangxian saluted together: "The Yulin army is invincible."?¡± Standing to the left of Zeng Guangxian was Xu Lang. Zheng Jiang came to Xu Lang after giving Han Wantao and Zeng Guangxian the rank of lieutenant general. ¡°General Xu Lang.  "As soon as Zheng Jiang said something, Xu Lang suddenly burped, and the smell of alcohol spurted out. Zheng Jiang was stunned for a moment: "You guys drank alcohol last night. With such a strong smell of alcohol, you don't want to be a major general anymore?  " "No, no.  Xu Lang smiled and said, "How can I not be a major general? I drank this the night before yesterday. I'm so happy."  " Zheng Jiang reluctantly put the rank of major general on Xu Lang's shoulders and whispered: "You are also the first one. When I am no longer the chairman of the Military Commission, I will write a military history of Yulin Army and write about you.  Go in.  "The investiture ceremony was carried out one after another, with Ye Zhan and Andreas standing on the far right of the generals. Zheng Jiang took two brigadier general epaulettes from the tray next to them and hung them on their shoulders: "Ye Zhan  Colonel Zhan, Colonel Andreas, on behalf of the Military Commission, I promote you to the rank of brigadier general. You are the pride of the Yulin Army.  " "Thank you, Chairman.  "The two men saluted together and said, "I will do my best and not give up even if I die.  " On the evening of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Xu Lang's family did not celebrate the festival at home, nor did Ye Sunquan's family. The two families and Gao Chen's family all went to Xiangyi Restaurant. Gao Chen picked up his parents from Yazhou and formally presented them to  The Ye family proposed marriage. In the Xiangyi Restaurant, there were nearly fifty people from the three families, sitting at five tables. Lu Tianxiang and He Yun sat in the middle of the main table, while Gao Chen's parents and Ye Sunquan sat.  On the right side, Xu Lang and Gao Chen sat. The remaining two seats were Cheng Yiyi and Ye Jie. The banquet had already started for a while. Xu Lang knew that Lu Tianxiang was old and could not drink too much.  He raised his glass to Ye Sunquan and Luo Shi and said: "Old Ye, Mrs. Ye, now that Miss Ye Jie and Gao Chen's marriage has been decided, you have nothing to worry about. After drinking this engagement wine today, we will meet again another day.  Drink their wedding wine.  Luo Shi held the cup and thanked him: "Thanks to Mr. Xu's help for these two children."  " Xu Lang raised his neck and drank the wine: "Mrs. Ye has met her husband. I have watched these two children grow up, especially Miss Ye Jie. When I first met her ten years ago, she still had a runny nose. Now,  They are all big girls.  " Cheng Yiyi asked: "Ye Jie, you graduated from Yulin Bay Academy this year. Do you want to continue schooling or work after you get married?  " Ye Jie lowered her head and replied in a low voice: "Sister Yiyi, I don't want to go to school, and I don't want to work. I want to serve Gao Chen well.  "    "Ha ha ha ha.  Everyone at the table laughed, and He Yun said with a smile: "Mrs. Ye, this is what we call a girl who is outgoing. She is not even married yet, but she is already thinking about how to support her husband and raise children."  " Siqin at the other table didn't understand what He Yun meant when he said girls were extroverted, and asked: "Grandma, what does it mean for girls to be extroverted.  " Zhao Zhiruo, who was next to her, pulled her and said, "Why are you asking so many questions? You will know in a few days.  " Siqin still didn't understand: "Sister Zhiruo, why does it take a few days to find out? Why can't we know today?  Mrs. Chen smiled and said, "Because in a few days, your classmate will come to our house to propose marriage."  " "Sister Chen.  "Siqin lowered his head shyly. Gao Chen looked at Ye Jie and said, "Ye Jie, I hope you can continue to go to school and achieve great things like your third brother.  " Ye Jie looked at Gao Chen sweetly: "Okay, I'll listen to you.  "
