Looking at the drawings drawn by Zhu Youxiao, Zhang Haogu also analyzed: "Your Majesty, would it be better to improve here?"

"And here, I think that instead of arranging them on both sides, it would be better to move them to the rear."

Zhu Youxiao was also interested when he heard it. After some discussion with Zhang Haogu, he revised the drawings and he was more satisfied with the drawings.

Sitting comfortably in a chair and taking a sip of tea, Zhu Youxiao said, "It's better to discuss these things with Master."

"Speaking of which, why is Master looking for me?"

Zhang Haogu handed over the paper and said, "This is for the sake of state-owned enterprises in the Ming Dynasty. Your Majesty, please read it."

After flipping through Zhang Haogu's excerpts, Zhu Youxiao immediately understood Zhang Haogu's thoughts.

Zhu Youxiao was originally a smart person, or to put it another way, none of the emperors of the Ming Dynasty were stupid, it was just about where their thoughts were spent.

Although a smart man like Zhu Youxiao didn't like to read and write when he was a child, he had enriched himself a lot over the years. In addition, Zhang Haogu had proposed a series of ideas to him early on, so he naturally understood what Zhang Haogu meant as soon as his mind turned around.

"The opinion put forward by Master is not

wrong."

"It's good to recruit talents and build a number of enterprises that can be used by the court to do some big things, and to be responsible for the profits and losses on weekdays."

"In the future, not only for the domestic construction of the Ming Dynasty, but also in areas such as Nanyang, if there is a need, the imperial court can also send these companies to carry out construction in the local area, and declare the king to be king, killing two birds with one stone."

Zhang Haogu bowed slightly: "Your Majesty Sheng Ming Wu Guo. This is exactly what I mean."

"Nowadays, the climate problems faced by the Ming Dynasty are becoming more and more severe. Accelerating construction in Nanyang is a good thing for the court."

Zhu Youxiao nodded: "Yes, the faster the construction of Nanyang Land is, the more beneficial it will be to the court."

"It is said that when the barbarians and the Di enter China, they will be conquered by China. This land of Nanyang is full of small countries and few people. Let them bathe in the kingship of our Ming Dynasty, learn the etiquette of the Han family, and read the scriptures of the Han family. In less than three generations, they can integrate into our Ming Dynasty. This Nanyang

This land will be my Ming Dynasty’s overseas land in the future.”

"A few days ago, I held a state banquet for the heads of state and nobles of the Southeast Asian countries. I looked around at all of them and found a few ambitious ones. Unfortunately, they were either ambitious and talented, or they had only empty ambitions and no strength. They were restricted from doing anything in Southeast Asia.

The situation and themselves, they can't achieve anything."

"We need to keep a close eye on Nanyang Company. It would be a good thing to let them all bear loans from the court. At least it will be easier for the court to control and prevent them from messing around."

"As for the matter of Ming Dynasty's state-owned enterprises, Master, just go ahead and take care of it, I know."

Zhang Haogu nodded: "I understand."

After returning to the cabinet, Zhang Haogu held a small meeting with Lu Xiangsheng and Xu Guangqi.

"Your Majesty has already agreed to our Ming Dynasty state-owned enterprise plan."

Xu Guangqi sighed with emotion: "It's good if I agree. Speaking of Xiang Lu's Ministry of Household Affairs and my Ministry of Works, with the development of the imperial court, it is getting bigger and bigger, and it is becoming more and more bloated. I don't know how many of these things there are."

People are watching. It is better for us to do the subtraction and cut off the fat ourselves than to let others take a knife. At least the separated parts are still under our control."

Lu Xiangsheng nodded: "Xu Butang's words are quite right. We can still control what happens if we separate it. If we let others separate it, the final situation is not up to us."

Zhang Haogu smiled: "It has been planned for a long time to separate the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs. These things can either be established as separate yamen or split into state-owned enterprises. The jurisdiction will be convenient and the government orders will be smooth."

"Just like the Chidao Yamen, the Tax Yamen, the Commercial Yamen, and the Water Conservancy Yamen, they all have to be formed into separate departments sooner or later. The six-department model is no longer so suitable for today."

"Okay, let's not mention these. The first batch of enterprises held by the imperial court were mainly owned by the Ministry of Industry. River, Water Conservancy, and Chidao each established a company. The Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Industry jointly took charge of it, and then handed it over to the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Industry.

.”

Lu Xiangsheng nodded, obviously this was a plan that had been planned for a long time.

Zhang Haogu looked at Xu Guangqi again: "Xu Butang, although these companies undertake project tasks from the imperial court and are imperial enterprises, they must also be responsible for their own profits and losses. The imperial court cannot provide blood to these enterprises every year."

"I'm sorry for what Yuan Fu said," Xu Guangqi said.

"If that's the case, then we're ready to start the business." Zhang Haogu said with a smile.

Soon, the first batch of enterprises owned by the imperial court, including the Daming River Construction Company, the Daming Chidao Construction Company, and the Daming Water Conservancy Construction Company, were announced and officially opened in Zhili.

With the Ministry of Industry providing technical officers and skilled craftsmen, and the Ministry of Household Affairs providing funds, these companies were established smoothly. After being listed and established, they were ready to go public.

The financing and listing of the first batch of state-owned enterprises in the Ming Dynasty naturally attracted a large number of people among the people.

The common people do not understand the concepts and ideas of these state-owned enterprises, but everyone also knows that these enterprises are owned by the court, so it is impossible to lose money.

State-owned enterprises work for the imperial court. These enterprises must be able to guarantee their incomes despite droughts and floods, and they are high-quality assets.

Some people who are usually reluctant to spend money on investment have taken part of their money to invest in these state-owned enterprises, which shows how popular these state-owned enterprises are.

The most popular among the people

There is no other company than Daming Chidao Construction Company.

Previously, the Beijing-Tianjin Chidao allowed ordinary people and businessmen to see the convenience of Chidao and the hidden profits therein. Subsequently, Chidao connecting Taiyuan and Kaifeng were built one after another, as well as the Chidao connecting North and South Zhili. Which one did not attract people's attention?

Private capital is sought after?

Nowadays, the Daming Chidao Construction Company is specifically responsible for the construction of Chidao. How can this be a loss?!
