Chapter 904 – Collectivization Plan

Establishing the China Shipping Group had many obvious benefits, but it was not without resistance. The short term damages to the three imperial chambers of commerce were unavoidable.

Of course, this was only negligible. After all, when the shipping group was established, even if the three imperial chambers of commerce wanted to continue engaging in such services, they would not be able to compete with the shipping group.

Both sides, be it in terms of resources, branding, or ability could not be compared.

The biggest difficulty was talent.

Now, along with the dynasty education and the talent selection system getting more and more perfect, the basic level officials were not lacking. What they lacked were modern enterprise talents.

To run the huge China Shipping group well, they needed tens of thousands of professional talents. Just relying on NPCs was not enough.

If they wanted to do well, they needed elite managers and even top grade professional managers.

On this matter, Di Chen and the others had a natural advantage, as they could directly move their family members. Ouyang Shuo could only hire such talents with high salaries.

Luckily, the Great Xia Dynasty was very famous amongst players, and their influence was undeniable.

Along with Meng Zhida, Chen Bingguang, Liu Mo, and Gong Jian, these modern professional talents that had been given prominent positions in the dynasty, the attraction of the dynasty to top grade talents had greatly increased.

At the same time, the Great Xia Dynasty’s many large-scale player recruitment operations basically removed the locked country image that the territory had previously given to the outside world.

Hence, it was not that difficult for the dynasty to recruit a bunch of professionals. It only needed time and patience. Apart from that, the highest grade management personnel could not be hired.

This was their lack of foundation that could only be slowly made up.

Apart from public hiring, Ouyang Shuo was ready to use other channels to recruit talents like the Song Family.

As one of the four big Lingnan Families, although their influence was not as great as Di Chen’s, they could still help to invite talents in.

On this point, Song Tianxiong gladly obliged.

Apart from that, there was also the Feng family of Feng Qiuhuang. The Feng Family was one of the top families in China, and their hidden strength was huge.

Fallen Phoenix City was unable to digest so many talents, especially not in terms of port and shipping side talents. Hence, they did not mind recommending a bunch of people over to the Great Xia Dynasty.

Furthermore, there were the friends of the Great Xia Dynasty like the Snow-War Rose Mercenary Group, Blood Evil Mercenary Group, Blood Shadow Alliance, Jiangshan Alliance, and Thread.

Although the guild members were not professionals, they had huge families behind them. The connection network of China was really interconnected, so they would be able to get a bunch of people.

Even adventure gamemode players, if the China Shipping Group gave good enough treatment, they would not mind doing deal jobs.

Xie Siyun, Blood Romance, and the others had already told Ouyang Shuo that as long as these people wanted to leave, they would not stop them.

The same theory could be used on the millions of people who had already moved over to the Great Xia Dynasty.

The relationship between the dynasty and the China region players was becoming closer and closer. Tying the interests of normal players with the interests of the dynasty was the long term strategy of Ouyang Shuo.

…

After listening to Cui Yingyu’s introduction of the plan, the three of them were so shocked that their mouths were left agape.

As the leaders of top class chambers of commerce, Bai Xue and the others thought that their businesses were big enough. However, compared to how the dynasty was running, it was not much.

The valuation of the Shipping Group was as much as their entire chamber of commerce.

Seeing which, Song Tianshuang gave Ouyang Shuo a deep look.

Without a doubt, although this was announced by Cui Yingyu, the person who pushed this out had to be him. Although Cui Yingyu had learned many skills of the modern day, she did not have that much ability.

Only this young man was able to do what others did not dare to and think what others did not dare to think about.

‘Dare to lead the world!’ Song Tianxiang suddenly thought about that phrase that was a good fit.

When Ouyang Shuo saw that, he smiled, “After the organization, the Imperial Court will not take advantage of you. Based on the number of ships, workers, etc. we will give you shares in the group.”

Due to the Business Department having the most ships, the share percentages of the rest would be around 2% to 3% and would not exceed 3%.

Apart from that, the Four Seas Bank invested 1.5 million as the starting and recruitment fund, taking 5% of the shipping group.

Based on this, the shipping group would have a valuation of 30 million gold. Such a valuation was huge, and the Four Seas Bank used the profits of the group in the next year to calculate that.

“Thank you king for your good grace.”

Song Tianxiong and the other two were smart and knew that shares did not mean pay. It also meant that their chambers of commerce would have an advantage over other chambers of commerce. They would have more influence and power.

Such a thing was unable to be validated.

Hence, the plan was really nice and could be said to be his thanks to them for their help during the Battle of Morocco.

Between the two of them, they shared profits and benefits.

…

The China Shipping Group preparation officially started. As the group was under the Financial Court and the Business and Industry Development Department, Cui Yingyu would be in charge.

The recruitment notice had been sent to the various media boards and caused uproar.

In the nine imperial cities, there were definitely professionals that were unable to use their skills of their jobs. Upon seeing the recruitment notice, they smiled.

They finally had the chance they were waiting for, and a new door had opened up for them.

At the same time, the Imperial Court would spread out the news of the shipping guild to the chambers of commerce circle to invite them to throw themselves into voyage trading.

As for the other territories in China, they could only look on in awe.

The Great Xia Dynasty’s actions had left them all behind, and they were so far behind. Even if Di Chen and the others wanted to build a similar one, they could not walk out of the ocean.

Thinking of how the chambers of commerce under them would need to borrow the China Shipping Group to engage in voyage trading, Di Chen and the others felt really depressed.

They were worried about the talents who were now under their families moving over.

On one side, they were not doing anything; on the other, they were valued and could show their worth.

Such a temptation was hard to resist, so talents leaving was just a matter of time. After all, these top level talents only worked for their families but were not their servants.

One small recruitment notice had alerted the entire China region.

Only the Great Xia Dynasty had such ability.

…

Ouyang Shuo did not bother about what was happening on the outside world, as he had more important things to do.

Establishing the China Shipping Group was to reveal the collectivization plan of the dynasty. Following which, large amounts of such groups would be established to raise the efficiency.

The garment industry would use the sewing machines as well as the various silks to work with the Textile Association to form the China Textile Group to further organize the industry chain.

With that, it could make use of the textile industries of the various prefectures and counties while also getting rid of the rising giant.

The promotion of sewing machines could change the entire industry and greatly increase efficiency. However, it could also cause the local offices to throw too much money into it and overproduce.

With a textile group monitoring everything, they could prevent such a situation from arising.

Furthermore, they could prevent local rich people from forming up huge textile corporations to monopolize their area and hence challenge the rule of the local offices.

Setting up the textile group was to prevent such things.

Seeing that the dynasty had been established and the local powers had not risen, it was the best time to strike. If they formed, to remove them would be really difficult.

In the construction industry, Ouyang Shuo was ready to remove the construction ability of the Construction Division to build the China Construction Group to be in charge of dynasty design, construction, facility building, and the like.

To reduce the burden of local offices was Ouyang Shuo’s next target.

The Construction Division was the group monitoring the construction market and also a participant in projects. It was like a judge while also being an athlete, so corruption might occur.

Zhang Tingyu had already reported to Ouyang Shuo that the various Construction Divisions were where corruption was the most common.

Establishing the China Construction Group and removing a part of the role of the Construction Division could be a great move to prevent such corruption. Of course, to completely remove it was impossible.

Using this chance, they would make more people join the construction of the dynasty. The future dynasty construction industry would become more open and competitive.

There were many similar plans. Some were already planned, some were at the evaluation stage, and some were still in his head.

Every group being set up was a good thing, but it also resulted in many conflict of interests. If he moved too quickly, it would cause the dynasty to shake and unsettle the people.

Hence, they needed a calendar to go one by one, starting from the easiest and most urgent ones. The normal groups could be done by the cabinet and Ouyang Shuo did not need to personally appear.

Collectivization’s benefits were obvious for all to see. The dynasty pushing out organizations not in their structure would give birth to the basic capital market and the sprouting of industrialization.

The process had good and evil, fortunes, conflicts of interests, and might even result in bloodshed. But to the dynasty, it was a milestone-like revolution.
