Chapter 2569
Whether it is the Ministry of Commerce's office in Hangzhou or the Donghai Region Management Committee led by Shi Diwen, the regulatory measures and intensity of commercial activities are far from enough in Tao Hongfang's view. Once too many unregulated gray areas exist for a long time, it may affect Haihan's interests and even cause some serious safety problems.
Tao Hongfang is most worried that hostile forces will obtain Haihan's mass-produced weapons through unregulated trading channels and use them in operations against Haihan. Although this kind of resistance will not change the general trend of Haihan replacing Ming Dynasty, it may delay the process and cause unnecessary losses to Haihan.
Of course, this situation is not entirely due to the laziness of official agencies. The main reason is that there is a serious shortage of manpower to implement regulatory measures, which seems to be powerless in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions with a large area and a large population. However, Tao Hongfang still believed that Shi Diwen did not pay enough attention to this work, and perhaps there should have been a more appropriate supervision plan.
Li Fa patiently listened to the two young men's stories, and then slowly said: "So in your opinion, Mr. Shi should put all large transactions under supervision and eliminate gray channels for material circulation. Such an idea That's right, but have you ever thought that everything has its pros and cons? The implementation of strict supervision will also cause a lot of inconvenience to the existing trade situation, and even affect normal business activities. After all, it was originally under the Ming Dynasty! These merchants and commercial institutions may not be willing to accept the new system, and may regard regulatory measures as a means of restriction, thereby reducing their willingness to carry out business activities in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.”
The Li family in Guangzhou had become an important trading partner of Haihan more than 20 years ago, so Li Fa was very familiar with Haihan's business system and had a thorough understanding of the situation in the Ming Dynasty's ruling area. He knew very well that there were still many specific difficulties in promoting these systems in the Ming Dynasty's ruling areas, and these obstacles would not disappear immediately because of the will of Haihan officials.
Tao Hongfang said: "The same measures can work well in Hainan Island, but are they difficult to implement in Jiangsu and Zhejiang?"
Li Fa smiled and said: "You also know that this is Jiangsu and Zhejiang, not Hainan Island. The environments in the two places are very different. If you simply apply the practices of Hainan Island, it may not work well here."

Li Fa's words touched Tao Hongfang. Before that, he didn't seem to be really aware of the differences in the environment between the two places. He was simply thinking about how to implement the Ministry of Commerce's regulatory system in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. But he is also a smart man. After hearing After Li Fa's advice, he quickly realized that there were indeed some omissions in his ideas.
Li Fa continued: "In the long run, of course the regulatory measures you expect will be gradually implemented here in the future, but it may take several years for the conditions to mature, so you have to be patient."
Tao Hongfang still refused to give up: "But during this period, we cannot just ignore the trouble and losses that unsound regulatory measures may cause to our country, right?"
Li Fa smiled and said: "Young man, how can there be any good thing in the world where you can only make money but not lose money, just get in but not get out! As long as the advantages outweigh the disadvantages and there are too many mistakes in doing business, it is worth trying. The troubles and losses you mentioned can only be controlled within It is within an acceptable level and does not affect the rule of Haihan State here. In fact, the higher-ups will not care too much. ”
The views expressed by Li Fa were actually similar to the answers Tao Hongfang had previously received from Wan Yan and Shi Diwen, which were to focus on the overall situation and temporarily ignore some minor issues. It's just that he explained it from the perspective of a private businessman, and his explanation was not so high-sounding and more understandable.
Tao Hongfang suddenly thought that one of the important reasons why he disagreed with people like Shi Diwen and Li Fa was that his perspective on the problem was obviously different from theirs. People look at problems from the perspective of those in power, but they have always played the role of executor. The problems that they cannot ignore are just trivial matters that are not so important in the eyes of those in power. This difference in perspective on the problem actually has nothing to do with the right or wrong of the position. If Tao Hongfang is willing to change his perspective and try to examine these issues from a higher level, perhaps his ideas will converge with Shi Diwen and Li Fa.
Moreover, Tao Hongfang has also realized that his identity and background are not as influential here as imagined. Although others respect him, they do not value his ideas too much. To solve the problems before him, relying solely on his personal will is far from being able to achieve the goal. There must be a strong will from the top to promote implementation.
Ning Zijing, on the other hand, was more interested in Li Fa's own work content. After the topic of regulatory measures came to an end, he couldn't wait to ask Li Fa questions.
"Speaking of it, Qiong Lianfa's business model in Jiangsu and Zhejiang is actually no different from that in the south. It mainly sells goods across regions." Li Fa knew Ning Zijing's identity very well, so he patiently explained to him explained.
Qionglianfa itself is a business alliance formed by more than ten large commercial banks. It covers almost all aspects from procurement, production, transportation to sales, including almost all business forms that can be seen on the market, and its business scope is extremely large. It has a wide range of resources, and the various resources it controls are also extremely rich, and its strength is far beyond that of ordinary commercial banks.
It is precisely because of this unique business model that the large-scale commercial district built by it alone emerged. This was a unique new business format in the original Ming Dynasty ruling area, and it also brought great operating advantages to itself.
"However, Jiangsu and Zhejiang are originally commercially developed areas. Businessmen here will soon follow our example, imitate our experience and methods, and form various business alliances to compete with us." Li Fa said about the local area The peers of the company gave high praise and believed that Qiong Lianfa’s leadership in business model will not last long before local businessmen will catch up.
This is not surprising. After all, there are many wealthy businessmen in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. These people have funds and resources. After realizing the operating advantages of Qiong Lianfa's business model, they will definitely follow suit and establish similar business organizations.
However, Tao Hongfang has reservations about whether he can form a comparable opponent to Qiong Lianfa. In his view, the advantages of Haihan's business model are not just an organizational form of alliance between large merchants, but also more advanced management methods, warehousing and logistics systems than traditional commercial banks, as well as silently providing services behind the scenes. Financial institutions are conditions that local merchants in Jiangsu and Zhejiang currently do not have. It took Qiong Lianfa more than 20 years to develop to its current scale, and the gap in the middle is not so easy to narrow.
