Chapter 470 Five-Year Covenant (Part 1)

Although the shares given to Datang have indeed increased, at least in the early stage, the great man did not have to pay, but there were losses. For example, Huo Gang actually wanted to promote the reputation of the great man in the Tang Dynasty through this incident.

Although propaganda like this has been underway, there is no great effect without examples. If the railway is built, you don’t have to think about it. The process involved the Tang Dynasty workers starting at least one million. If you want to speed up the project in this era, because the production tools are low, you can only increase manpower.

Think about the perverted projects in the 1950s and 1960s, and you will find that if there are too many people and the production tools are slightly more up to date, the efficiency will be really not slow. So Huo Gang wanted to take this opportunity to promote the great man. The method of promoting is very simple, that is, very high welfare benefits, such as eating.

At least they must meet the standards of a big man. For example, there are dry goods to eat at least meat soup, or even meat meals every few days. They think that workers will have strength only when they are full.

The people of this era are different from those in later generations. There are not just some people who are cheating, but there are too few people. Moreover, cheating can be restricted through some means, such as dividing them into different construction groups, etc. There are always people who are cheating and cheating.

Through this method, the reputation of the man without deducting wages and having a very good meal and food can be spread.

If it is handed over to the Tang Dynasty, Huo Gang doesn't need to ask. The Tang Dynasty would definitely not be able to pay these workers in this situation. Li Shimin could not have organized it completely. Although the organization may be officials from all over the country, the final responsibility of the family is probably still in various families.

These things are not difficult to guess, but if this is the case, for the greatest profit, these aristocratic families will definitely deduct the food, wages, etc. of these workers. For the greatest profit, Huo Gang doesn't have to think that the integrity of these aristocratic families is equivalent to not being there.

After thinking about it, Huo Gang replied to Li Shimin that this is OK, but there is one thing that the big man will supervise, that is, the meal requirements must meet the big man's requirements. If they cannot meet, the big man will deduct some points.

Regarding this, Huo Gang simply gave Li Shimin an idea in the letter. If Li Shimin wants to hand over such a work to various aristocratic families, he can set some strategies in advance, such as introducing a point policy. If this point is 100 points, if any problems arise in the area where each aristocratic family is responsible, a certain amount of points will be deducted.

What punishment will be given for such points? For example, if a certain point is deducted, the family will be fined, or the other party's shareholding share in the railway company in the future.

This point can be due to accidents, or due to various things such as food, salary, etc., and points will be deducted.

Also, in order to encourage these aristocratic families, Huo Gang thought of another solution for Li Shimin. He even took out the strategy of AB shares. If the shares owned by Datang were distributed to these aristocratic families, then the money invested by these aristocratic families could only occupy dividend shares, but not vote shares.

However, all the aristocratic families that own shares have a privilege, that is, in the future, the railway transportation cargo containers, and the business of these aristocratic families has priority, that is, the business of these aristocratic families can be used first.

No need to think about this, Huo Gang knew that these aristocratic families could break the head. Huo Gang had heard of those things that asked grandpa and grandma for the sake of trains at the beginning of later generations.

So this thing is definitely a high-quality resource. In addition to the Dahan's own share, it is certainly possible that these aristocratic families have priority.

After writing these strategies on, Huo Gang directly handed the letter to Li Shimin. After reading it from Huo Gang's letter, Li Shimin was immediately excited. To be honest, Li Shimin really admires Huo Gang in this regard. He really can't compare with business matters.

Any method that appeared solved the problem that he had thought about for a long time. Li Shimin had never thought of these problems before, but it has to be said that when he saw this method, Li Shimin felt enlightened and suddenly realized.

These methods seem very simple, but when no one points it out, you just can't imagine that this is the limitation of the times.

After carefully studying this thing, Li Shimin quickly agreed directly. The next time was to discuss the conditions proposed by Huo Gang. To be honest, Li Shimin did not expect that Huo Gang's request did not say anything else, but instead had requirements for the food of these workers.

Three meals a day, and each meal must have dry goods. Dinner can be eaten slightly worse, but breakfast and lunch must be eaten well, and everyone must be filled with dry goods, and soup mixed with meat and vegetables must be required. Then, it is required that these workers be given a meal of meat every seven days.

To be honest, this requirement has far exceeded Li Shimin's expectations for workers. In Li Shimin's imagination, these workers could not give them so good food. In Li Shimin's opinion, it would be good to give them enough food, and there was such a high requirement?

Huo Gang's requirement is really too high. Not to mention these workers, even some of the employed people in the city may not be able to give them such good food.

Of course, Li Shimin can understand why Huo Gang asked so. The reason is very simple. As long as these people are full, their working speed will naturally be fast. But in this way, the cost of the Tang Dynasty will undoubtedly increase a lot.

The reason why Li Shimin did not want to adopt the contracting system before was to directly empty the number and meet the conditions of negotiation. However, at present, Huo Gang would not give up this because Huo Gang said that either follow the previous method or this method. In short, the Han Dynasty will set up a relevant supervision team to monitor all road construction parts.

If any problems arise, according to the points system he mentioned, Li Shimin also saw that it was very useful, and he didn't have to think about it, that those aristocratic families would break the head for this quota.

In addition, Huo Gang also raised the question about subsequent railways. If the railway is continued to be built, these shares can be discussed at that time. So if you use this as bait, don’t think that these aristocratic families will definitely break the head.

However, these things cannot be discussed with these ministers. Li Shimin can make his own decision. He just needs to discuss what Huo Gang said, which is to ask for good issues for these people.

Although this issue was discussed, it did not last long, because for these officials, although they represented aristocratic families, in the face of Li Shimin, they considered more about the Tang Dynasty.

Regarding Huo Gang's request, they soon knew the benefits of this, which could not only solve the problem of a considerable number of refugees, but also give them a way to survive. In addition, they could also make money earned by ordinary people. These ordinary people are different from wealthy families. Their money cannot be saved. Whether it is buying food or daily necessities, they always have to be spent.

As a result, the business of the Tang Dynasty naturally became more and more prosperous.

After discussion on this matter, Li Shimin soon wrote a new letter. In this way, the two sides quickly determined the matter, and then the issue of railway construction was directly finalized. Regarding the shares occupied by Datang, after several rounds of negotiations between the two parties, Huo Gang gave Li Shimin 30% of the shares.

The Han occupies 70% and the entire railway has 50 years of operation rights. In that case, within 50 years, the Han chao had the final say in this railway, but Huo Gang did not leave room for ease. If the next railway is built and the next railway is built, the Han chao can directly sell some products such as rails and locomotives.

As long as Datang can spend money to purchase these products by itself, then Datang's shares cannot be increased.

But these are all later stories. In short, the 50-year operating rights are inevitable, and Dahan's shareholding must reach 70%.

As for the remaining 30%, how the Tang Dynasty and these aristocratic families are allocated, it is the Tang Dynasty's affairs and has nothing to do with the Han Dynasty.

In addition to these, the entire construction period is five years. Construction will start next spring. Dahan will formulate relevant quality issues. If there are engineering problems in the construction sections within the scope of the various aristocratic families that have received the project, then this aristocratic family will face various penalties.

The negotiations between the two sides were faster than expected, mainly because the Tang Dynasty actually did not have many choices, and Huo Gang was not as difficult as the great powers in history to make things difficult for the Tang Dynasty. The conditions he gave were also considered to give face to the Tang Dynasty, so the negotiations between the two sides were so fast.

When the Tang Dynasty and the Han Dynasty finalized the general plan, Li Shimin immediately released the news. Just as Li Shimin thought, the aristocratic families who received the news went crazy in an instant. How could they not know what this meant?! This means that they will control the main transportation forces of the entire Tang Dynasty in the future!
