The richest man in the world

Chapter 59 Dig away Xu Run

Xu Run was a little weak. He was really alienated by Hu Chuyuan, and there was no lack of worry in his heart.

But after all, he was scared!

He still smiled and said, "Mr. Hu Shao said that after the shipping bureau acquired the shipping company of Qichang Yanghang, it is now the largest shipping company in East Asia, and I hold 20% of the share capital of the shipping bureau. Boss Tang and the rest of the businessmen have a total of 40%, and the official shares are only 40%... I just owe a little more than 1 million taels of official money, but it's nothing. It's a big deal, and my position in the shipping bureau is still very stable.

Hu Chuyuan said, "Well, take me as an example, if Zuo Zhongtang wants to raise the official shares of the business to 30%, do you think I can refuse?"

Xu Run said, "I'm afraid not."

Hu Chuyuan smiled and said, "Then you are not the same. After all, I am the staff's confaital of Lord Zhongtang, and so is my father. The family business is passed down, and I am the son-in-law of Governor He. Can you compare with me?

Xu Run was helpless and said, "I really can't. Do you have a way to deal with this kind of thing?

Hu Chuyuan said, "There's no way, but I estimate that the official shares of Jiangnan Commercial Bank are up to 30%. Zhongtang will not ask too much, and Governor He will not agree."

Xu Run said, "That's true."

Hu Chuyuan smiled and said, "This is just the first hidden danger. The second question is that I will enter the shipping industry sooner or later. I have talked to Lord Zhongtang about this matter, and I will take Jiangnan Shipping Bureau as my business name. With my capital, I entered the shipping industry. I don't know how long Boss Xu can support it? What's more, I even want to make tea. At that time, I'm afraid I'll offend Boss Xu!"

Xu Run was completely speechless. He regretted saying that he was scared.

That's good. Hu Chuyuan scared him.

Seeing that he was more hesitant, Hu Chuyuan continued: "The third hidden danger, Boss Xu is known as the Chinese land king of Shanghai, and his assets are claimed to be more than 10 million. But as I know, you mainly rely on debt suppression to buy land, constantly bet the land to Qianzhuang, and exchange money to buy new land. China is also a disaster-stricken country. Although its territory is vast, its military strength is not strong, and it has been repeatedly bullied. In case other European and American powers send fleets to fight, Shanghai will definitely be the brunt of it and land prices will plummet. At that time, I wonder if Boss Xu can still support it?

"It's hard to say such a thing. What kind of business is not risky?"

Xu Runqiang smiled and put it indifferently, but he couldn't help saying, "However, I still want to thank Hu Shao for his kindness, but... Hu Shao, since you can see it so clearly, is there any solution?"

Hu Chuyuan waited for his words and immediately said, "The solution is a little bit. Since I want to enter the tea industry and shipping industry, why doesn't Boss Xu join hands with me? Let's unite. I want to empty two shares of Jiangnan Commercial Bank to Boss Xu, on the condition that your tea house, tea number and shopkeepers will be merged into Jiangnan Commercial Bank, and you will also buy the shares of Boss Tang and other businessmen in the ship bureau, and all of them will be merged into Jiangnan Commercial Bank.

Xu Run was shocked and thought, you have such a big appetite. I have worked hard all my life to have these family businesses. Do you want to annex them all in one word?

He didn't dare to say anything to death, so he could only say coldly, "Mr. Hu, your ambition is really great!"

Hu Chuyuan sneered and said, "Boss Xu, I now have the political and business resources of the five provinces in the south of the Yangtze River. Such a large market has given up to you 20%. Salt, rice, oil, tea, cotton candy and shipping have profits to make. Is there anything else to refuse?"

Salt rice oil tea cotton candy.

This is a big tone, but Xu Run knows that Hu Chuyuan is afraid he can do it.

At that time, there will be no place for him in the business world in Jiangnan.

Thinking of this, Xu Run had to sigh, "There is really no reason to refuse... Prince, I'm afraid I can't toss around as much as you."

Hu Chuyuan has made up his mind to swallow him and said, "Boss Xu, after all, we should pay attention to union when doing business. I have talents who operate silk, rice, salt and money houses. You have talents who manage tea and shipping. It's better for everyone to be together than to compete with each other. As long as you want, I will let you be the vice president of Jiangnan Commercial Bank, who is fully responsible for the tea and shipping business.

At this time, Xu Run really had no reason to refuse. He had to sigh, "Hu Shao, Yan Shu said that your surname is lonely and you don't like to be with others. Once you become bigger, you will become a scourge. Unexpectedly, he was right about more than half of it. In fact, you are not alone, but disdain to be with others. With your talent, I'm afraid few Chinese businessmen can deal with you!"

This is a compliment, that is, Xu Run himself found another step down.

If you want to say that Hu Chuyuan's ability and intelligence in business, there are many people who are better than him. At least Tang Tingshu can trap him.

However, Hu Chuyuan's backer and background are too strong, and his financial resources are too strong. He is mainly opposed to guests, and he defeated Tang Tingshu.

Hu Chuyuan stretched out his hand and said to Xu Run, "Then it's settled, Boss Xu, Vice President Xu. I'm waiting for you in this Jiangnan business firm to seek hegemony in the world!"

"Good!"

Xu Run insisted, reached out his hand and clenched with Hu Chuyuan, and said, "From now on, Xu's half-old life will be handed over to the prince."

Hu Chuyuan laughed and said, "Okay, then let's work together and fight together!"

"Hmm!"

Xu Run nodded with great certainty. Thinking about it again, he really felt that it was very cost-effective.

Anyway, Hu Chuyuan's political background and financial resources are incomparable to others. Originally, Xu Run also felt that it was a matter of stir-frying salt. Hu Chuyuan died... Unexpectedly, in just half a month, the three giant merchants of Tang Tingshu, Zhang Songxian and Gu Shousong were defeated, not to Hu Chuyuan, but to Hu Chuyuan. The background.

The resources of Jiangnan Commercial Bank are even more terrible. They give him 20% of the shares, which is already a huge profit, and all the investment can be recovered in three or four years.

Where to find such a good business in the world?

Where is Hu Chuyuan?

Of course, he didn't want to give out 20% of the shares, but he also weighed it carefully.

Take away Xu Run. In terms of business, he can quickly expand the share of the tea industry and the shipping industry, especially the tea industry is the most important. In terms of influence, Xu Run is already the only remaining Chinese businessman in Shanghai, and he can smoothly step on the beach, which is of great benefit to Hu Chuyuan's education and industry. Politically, it can play a role in Li Hongzhang's ship investment bureau.

It's not good...!

Hu Chuyuan estimated that he had the opportunity to seize the control of the Shanghai Shipping Merchants Bureau from Li Hongzhang. In this way, Li Hongzhang's influence in Shanghai was almost wiped out, and from then on, he was left in Beiyang.
