Chapter 790: Training

Pyongyang has a city wall, but now many areas have been stripped of the city walls, and half of them are selected to be retained. The city wall behind the railway station is not limited to the limit. A large hole of 100 meters wide and a straight cement road runs through the entire city.

If it weren't for the unfinished construction site on both sides of the road, there were still some low and broken houses on both sides of the road. No one believed that this city had undergone such a huge change in less than a year.

The speed of the carriage was not fast, and Chen Xie could calmly examine the changes in the city. The dirty and messy memory in his memory did not change, and even became even worse. The only improvement was this road, and half of the buildings were built on both sides. Land reform could appease the vast rural population and make it return to their hearts quickly and stably. The city could not use this method. Building a palace was not applicable in this era. Because the labor levy would not be given a penny, and the stuttering would be the saint.

For the sake of speed and construction period, this road and city reconstruction were contracted to the Ming Dynasty builders. What the North Korean government had to do was demolition. The demolition in this era could be paid without money, but the government gave it this time, and it was still very transparent. It fully reflects the benevolence of the new Korean royal family and government for Baixin.

Many things cannot be understood by people of this era. Chen Chengen couldn't understand them, why were these Ming merchants willing to contribute to the Pyongyang City renovation project for free? This question has been kept in my heart for a long time. When I saw my father staring outside, I decided to take the risk and ask: "Father, these projects are under construction from a construction company in Dengzhou, Daming, and there is no wages."

Chen Xie turned his head to look at the opposite side, couldn't help but smile and said, "Do you think that the builder's head was broken by the door?"

Chen Chengen smiled awkwardly. The carriage was very spacious. There was a large tea table between the father and son, and there were two maids who made tea, serving them carefully. The carriage did not belong to the royal family. Instead, it belonged to the special car of the president's headquarters. Except for the father and son, no one else could come up, including Chen Fan, the half-brother. Let's put it this way, whether you can come up and sit upright is a symbol of identity and status.

"How can those profiteers led by Wen Bajin be kind?" As he spoke, Chen Xie stretched out his hand. Ah Xi, who had been quiet like silver, immediately handed over a contract. After opening it, Chen Xie pointed to the place where the red line was drawn on it and said, "Take it and see, what are the words on the red line?"

Chen Chengen took it over and read it carefully, but still didn't understand. He still didn't understand it. After reading it again, he still didn't understand. After reading it for the third time, he looked up at his father blankly, and the shame on his face was clearly visible. Chen Xie only smiled slightly and said, "Don't be discouraged. These people have been wandering around in a society where merchants and craftsmen are not welcome for many years, and have long been a human being. How could they do a loss-making business? Let's look at these conditions one by one, a special contractor for royal construction. This title and the plaque given by the royal family are enough for them to be willing to do this business at a loss. Let's look..."

As Chen Xie continued to tell the story, Chen Chengen's face became increasingly ugly. These contents were the result of negotiations between the old guys in the royal cabinet and this Ming Dengzhou Gaodashang Construction Co., Ltd., and it sounded like a drunkenness. The royal family was either without money, but they just saved as much as possible. The problem was that the city was just a main road, and there was not much land on both sides. Now one-third had to provide a builder for free. That's all, it was tax-free for ten years. It also took a coal mine and a large piece of land outside the city to convert it into a cement factory, so as to provide free labor for 3,000 people.

So Chen Xie gave a simple conclusion: "Who made the final decision on this matter? You can get him out of the cabinet."

A cement road with a total length of only eight kilometers is exchanged for the best section of the road in the city center and the three thousand labor required for a coal mine and a factory foundation project. I’m so embarrassed to say that someone’s head was broken by the door. Can’t such a cabinet member put a sack and throw lotus plants in Datong River in a sack?

Chen Chengen's face was pale, his fists were clenched, and his chest was fluctuating violently. After a long time, he said, "I want to kill that profiteer." Hearing this, all the smiles on Chen Xie's face disappeared, and he looked at the opposite side coldly without saying anything. Chen Chengen was so panicked that he didn't know why Chen Xie had this reaction, Chen Xie said, "Are you planning to break the contract?"

The tone was unexpectedly dull, but Chen Chengen felt a strong sense of uneasiness, because this dullness was a little cold. When he nodded subconsciously, Chen Xie's face suddenly became ferocious and then flashed by. How to say it? He was a young child, and at this age, he was still a middle school student.

"Remember what I said below. You have indeed suffered a loss in this contract and suffered a great loss. But since you have signed it, you must continue to execute it. If you suffer this time, you will find an opportunity to find a way to get it back next time, and you should not think of using your own power to break the rules. Of course, breaking the rules to obtain benefits is simple and efficient. The problem is that you can break the first time and you will become addicted in the future, and then break the rules you set again and again. The head you opened will spread throughout the country in the future. The consequence is that the entire national institutions will quickly *, and collusion between officials and businessmen has become a normal state. Now there is nothing to see. In the future, those businessmen who have gained benefits by breaking the rules will definitely do everything possible to transfer their assets under their name out of this country, thus falling into a disgusting cycle, the country's economy has been severely damaged, and it is inevitable that they will not recover."

Chen Chengen seemed to understand, and kept staring at Chen Xie's stern expression that he had never had before. His subconscious reaction was to take out paper and pen from his pocket and record this passage. Chen Xie then showed a look of relief and his speech slowed down: "North Korea adopts a dual constitution. As a monarch, it is necessary to look at the development of this country from a global perspective. It doesn't matter if you don't understand many things now. You must remember that if you find that the rules are incomplete, you can modify them through legal means, but you must never break the rules. North Korea is a small country with a giant like the Ming Dynasty. If you want to survive, you must have a clear positioning. How to position it depends on how you choose in the future. I can't make a decision for you."

The President's Headquarters used to be a palace in the royal family, with a spacious concrete road winding in the woods. After entering the headquarter, I stayed in the garden in the backyard, and climbed into the pavilion at a high place to see the Datong River.

At this time, there were still not many people following Chen Xie. Those who were waiting for the detailed talks were waiting at the door of the garden. Chen Chengen had already returned to his palace. The person following Chen Xie was Chen Fan holding a plan in his hand.

"After a brief rapid expansion, what Chen's Telegraph Company lacked the most was not funds, but talents. The scholars of the Ming Dynasty were more willing to participate in the imperial examination and become officials in the North Korean rebels. It was a helpless move to attack the North Korean rebels." Chen Fan explained that it would be impossible not to explain this matter. The so-called rebels were all old nobles who were overthrown by the new North Korea. There were many people with deep hatred among them.

"Have you ever thought that if these people are not used well, they will be hidden dangers in the future?" Chen Xie suddenly asked, Chen Fan nodded, expressing his thoughts. Chen Xie continued: "What you are doing now is an exclusive business, and these problems are not problems. The key is that in the future, fifty years, or even a hundred years later, we have to formulate a rule now to urge the telegraph companies destined to be giants to keep the driving force for the continuous development of technology."

Chen Fan did not expect that Chen Xie would take the thing he was most worried about with just one sentence, but instead started from another perspective. Chen Fan also took out a small notebook and carefully recorded what Chen Xie said. The life of cheating does not need to be explained. In this era, Chen Xie is a mythological existence. Let alone his son, who is not treated like a demigod? It would not be possible to explain it like this!

"The monopoly will undoubtedly gain huge benefits, but in turn it will become an obstacle to the emergence and development of new technologies. Short-sighted people will ignore the advantages of new technologies being more efficient for immediate benefits. In the end, short-sighted people will lag behind and be abandoned by the entire era because of the short-sighted people brought by this monopoly. The descendants of Chen must remember that constantly innovate and use new technologies to improve productivity, which is the fundamental to ensuring the vigorous vitality of a company."

Many things are like this. It is easy to say but difficult to do. Chen Xie doesn’t know if future generations will do what he says, but now it is definitely better to plan ahead than not do it.

"The Chen family is destined to become a big family and spread to the whole world. As an important branch, I still hope that the descendants will be better, but it is just hope. What will happen in the future is unpredictable." Speaking of this, Chen Xie couldn't help but feel a little tired. His mood was very contradictory at this time. On the one hand, he hoped that future generations could maintain the glory of the family, and on the other hand, he also knew that if the family developed to a certain extent, there would definitely be problems of one kind or another. If you are not careful, it may be the result of overturning.

Chen Xie didn't know that because of today's lecture, Chen Fan thought a lot after going back and formulated a complete set of ancestral teachings. The purpose was to maintain the vitality of the family to the greatest extent and avoid internal friction to the greatest extent.
