Hearing Zhang Futu's words, Yang Qing smiled: "The boss's awareness is naturally high, but he has the trust of the government. It is not this reliable thing, but it depends on strength."

Zhang Futu smiled: "That's that's that."

Yang Qing patted the sofa: "Food, clothing, housing and transportation, look at this sofa, which was not available in the past few years. Now there are basically wealthy families. Although the sitting posture is a bit bad, it is really comfortable.

Have you noticed that many new things over the years, such as sofas, four-wheeled carriages, etc., are emerging one after another. I am almost dazzled and feel that something has become popular for a while."

Zhang Futu smiled bitterly and said, "Although Quanzhou is prosperous, it is still too remote than Bianjing. You have this feeling on Liangzhe Road. I feel even more dazzling when I come from Quanzhou.

I have always claimed to be knowledgeable, but this time I came to Bianjing City, I suddenly felt that I was really a country bumpkin."

Yang Qing laughed: "That's right, most of the fresh things that can be seen in Quanzhou are things that the Gentiles come in.

But there are no good things in the Gentiles, they are nothing more than some rare original products.

What are ivory, agate, pearls, spices, etc.

But when it comes to technical things, we have to look at our Song Dynasty. The country above the Celestial Empire is not a waste of time.

You see, the Western Xia of Liao is aggressive to us in military terms, but in terms of wealth or magical skills, they are not as good as us when tied up."

Zhang Futu nodded in agreement: "This was the case before, but I feel that the gap seems to be becoming more and more obvious now?"

Yang Qing nodded: "You don't know if you concentrate on building ships. I have known this very well because I have to organize a large number of foreign trade goods in recent years.

In recent years, all kinds of new products from our Song Dynasty have emerged like bamboo shoots after a rain, covering ordinary life products such as food, clothing, housing and transportation.

There are also many large tools used for construction, agriculture, mining, etc., which are also appearing in large numbers. Mr. Zhang, do you know why this is?"

Zhang Futu shook his head: "I really don't know this."

"If Mr. Lu is here, she can talk to you for a few days or nights."

Yang Qing smiled.

"Is it related to the Agricultural Bank of China?"

Zhang Futu said.

Yang Qing nodded: "Just like your shipyard, the Agricultural Bank of China has been investing in these years, and more representative ones include four-wheeled carriages, cotton textile machines, cotton cloth, pumping trucks, etc.

Oh, and there are engineering products such as cement and steel bars.

Recently I have seen a new means of transportation called a bicycle. It is magical. It can run fast with two wheels, and you are not afraid of falling.

There is also a kind of tricycle. Although the load is not large, it does not require cattle, donkeys and horses, and can carry thousands of kilograms of goods by just one person. For ordinary farmers, if they have such a tricycle, they don’t need any donkey, ox cart.”

Zhang Futu listened with relish: "Then these bicycles and tricycles are really powerful tools, but whether they are expensive or not. If they can enter the homes of ordinary people, then the effect will be great."

Yang Qing nodded and said, "That's right, tricycles do not require high road conditions, and bicycles are even more magical. They can run on mountain roads, so of course it will be more laborious.

If a middle-aged man rides, it will be no problem to run seventy or eighty miles in one hour."

"A single hour is seventy or eighty miles, and then twelve hours a day, wouldn't it be possible to run thousands of miles..."

Zhang Futu calculated with his fingers and was stunned.

"...Isn't that a thousand-mile horse that travels thousands of miles a day?"

Yang Qing laughed: "How is that possible? Sometimes human resources are poor, how can it be for a day and a night to ride for a normal person for half an hour before he has to rest.

But it is also very impressive. Some villages that are relatively close to the county town may be able to go back and forth in one hour, so traveling is very easy."

Zhang Futu praised: "That's amazing, the Agricultural Bank of China has really done a lot of things."

Yang Qing nodded: "The boss told me that the five industries of the Central Bank, Agricultural Bank of China, West Lake City, Quanzhou Shipyard, and Oceanwide Group are going to become the economic engines of the Song Dynasty... I don't know what the engine is. The boss uses another word to describe it, called the five horses that drive the development of the Song Dynasty. As one of them, the Agricultural Bank of China is indeed ahead of us."

Zhang Futu was a little shocked: "The shipyard is also in it?"

Yang Qing nodded with a smile: "I was a little surprised at that time, because although your shipyard was producing full force, the benefits that the shipyard could create were actually very small compared to the central bank, Agricultural Bank of China, West Lake City, and Oceanwide Group. How could the boss be included?"

Zhang Futu said: "Yes!"

"The boss said, the original words, you have to hear them clearly. The boss said that Mr. Zhang's shipyard seems to be as profitable as you, but its function is not smaller than that of you.

Walking on land depends on horses, while sailing on sea depends on ships. Without cars and ships, people can only be limited to a small range. With Mr. Zhang's ship empowerment, Oceanwide Group can sell domestically produced goods overseas.

Only the overall situation created by the central bank and the Agricultural Bank of China in China can be digested by the huge productivity and the massive amount of goods produced.

Mr. Zhang’s shipyard is fundamentally the pillar of one of the two pillars of economic development in my plan, and it is extremely important!”

Zhang Futu was a little confused: "The pillar of one of the two pillars?"

Yang Qing nodded: "Yes, the so-called two pillars of the economy, the boss is talking about the domestic circulation and the foreign circulation."

Zhang Futu: "..."

Seeing this, Yang Qing smiled and said, "Do you still don't understand?"

Zhang Futu smiled bitterly: "I claim to be half a scholar, but why did I suddenly understand nothing?"

Yang Qing comforted, "Stop talking about you, those real scholars may not be able to understand the boss's words. However, you still have to read the boss's books more, otherwise you will not understand what he said when you talk to the boss."

Zhang Futu was shocked. What Yang Qing said was not without reason. If he really couldn't understand what Ouyang Bian said and could not understand Ouyang Bian's spirit, Ouyang Bian might have looked down on him.

Although he is an expert in shipbuilding, Zhang Futu's current ambition is not limited to shipbuilding, he wants to make greater development.

If you want to have greater development, you have to keep up with the boss's footsteps.

But if you can't even understand the boss's words, how can you keep up with it?

Zhang Futu felt that he had gained a lot tonight, so he quickly took out the paper and pen and said: "Brother Yang, tell me what books the boss has. I'll buy them to take a look."

"What you can buy on the market are "The Wealth of Nations", "On the Political Gains and Disadvantages of the Past Dynasties", and "Bao Xiaosu Talks about Administration of Government", and what you can't buy on the market are "Planning Plan for the Central Bank", "Abstract of the Development of the Agricultural Bank of China", "Abstract of the Development of West Lake City", etc. I have these. I will give you one later, so you won't be troublesome."

Yang Qing did not hesitate to give advice and told Zhang Futu what he knew.

His idea is also simple, just want to be closer to Zhang Futu.

Ouyang Bian has many capable subordinates in business, including Lu Caiwei, Yu Mou, Jiang Rucheng, Xu Fu, Fat Chef, etc. These people have followed Ouyang Bian a long time ago, and their feelings are naturally very deep.

He and Zhang Futu joined later, and their roots were much worse. If they wanted to gain a foothold in this group, they had to have allies.

Jiang Rucheng is his old friend and an ally, but Jiang Rucheng's West Lake City Engineering Company is still a bit worse than Agricultural Bank of China and West Lake City.

If Yang Qing wants to gain a foothold, the more friends he has, the better he can go further with Zhang Fucheng. With the help of his aid, his status will naturally be more stable.

Of course, there are no such competitive relationships in Ouyang Bian's small group. Everyone is from all walks of life. Not only does there be no business conflicts, but most of them are complementary.

For example, West Lake City and West Lake City Engineering Company, such as Shipyards and Oceanwide Group, and Oceanwide Group have business dealings with many industries under the Agricultural Bank of China.

The Agricultural Bank of China is also a shipyard and an investment company of Oceanwide Group, and the relationship between mutual promotion is more obvious.

But cooperation is cooperation, and competition for favor is competition for favor, these are two different things.

As we all know, if you want to consolidate your position and go further, you have to get closer to your boss and show greater abilities. Then the mutual aid is very important.

Therefore, it is very important to establish a good relationship.

According to Yang Qing's observation, Ouyang Bian's industries may be more in the future.

Although Ouyang Bian said that the five troika is the most critical, with Yang Qing's sensitivity, he felt that more companies like them would appear, and there would be more competitors at that time.
