Live as the emperor

Chapter 57

After leaving Shangshufu, Chen Guang soon came to Fuxiangji.

Fuxiangji has only been open for a few days now, but the business is very good. When Chen Guang came, the shop was full of people, and even the small shops were packed to the brim.

Seeing this scene, Chen Guang was immediately very relieved.It seems that this spinning machine still has advantages.

But this is pure nonsense, if there is no advantage, how can it promote the first industrial revolution?
What worries Chen Guang is that the background of the industrial revolution in the West at that time is completely different from the background of the era he is in now. Today's Qian Dynasty is the era when the feudal monarchy is gradually developing and perfecting, and it wants to promote capitalism. development is even more difficult.

Putting these irritating thoughts behind him, Chen Guang walked into Fuxiangji.The so-called car must have a road to the front of the mountain, and the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge. These things have not happened yet, so let him go.

"My lord, what do you want to see? We sell high-quality gauze and cotton linen here. Come in and take a look. The quality is good and the price is low. You won't suffer if you buy it. Look..."

As soon as Chen Guang came in, a junior came up to greet him, and that line caught Chen Guang's eyes.It's just like passing by and don't miss something.

All the shop assistants in Fuxiangji were recruited from the Hope Project, so they naturally knew Chen Guang, but the shop waiter didn't recognize him for a while. After reading the lines, he saw clearly that it was Chen Guang, and hurriedly said: "Jin His Royal Highness."

Chen Guang quickly waved his hand, and said in a low voice, "Go ahead, don't make a fuss, I'll just take a look."

Anyone who has been with Chen Guang for a long time knows that he is a person who does not put on airs. When Chen Guang said this, the waiter in the shop responded and went to work again.

"Anchor, to be honest, when did you leak that ad just now?" In the live broadcast room, after hearing the ad from the shop assistant Shun Liu, someone joked.

Indeed, what the shop waiter said was almost exactly the same as what the loudspeaker at the door of the two-dollar store said, and the remaining two yuan could not go to Hong Kong or Singapore.

Chen Guang couldn't help laughing and said: "I'm so surprised, I almost thought I met someone who time-traveled again."

"Honestly, are you going to build a harem to include Zhou Zhiruo?" a netizen asked.

Chen Guang couldn't help being startled, and scolded with a smile: "Fuck you, you'll be beaten and killed at every turn. How dare I want this daughter-in-law? I can see it through. This f*cking green tea is cold on the surface, but in reality Going up...it's also very cold. Besides, she is going to kill me now, how can I accept her? Just kidding me."

"2333, if you tell her that you are the prince, she promises to back it down. How many high-cold girls have been conquered in Mercedes-Benz and BMW cars."

"Upstairs, you have a language problem. You should have been conquered by Mercedes-Benz and BMW."

"The upstairs is amazing, the representative of the Chinese class."

Chen Guang was speechless for a moment, feeling that he was going to be cheated again, so he quickly said: "Anyway, I just don't like this girl, and I can't say why. Even if she wants to back up, I won't let her go."

"You don't want to be so beautiful, the anchor, how can you embarrass the majority of single dogs."

"..."

After chatting with the live broadcast room for a while, Su San came up from behind.When he met Chen Guang, he was about to salute, but Chen Guang waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about it later."

The shop layout at this time is completely different from modern shops.Behind the facade is a courtyard and houses, which are the legendary integrated commercial and residential buildings.

After entering the yard, the two sat on the stone bench in the yard, and Su San hurriedly served tea and snacks for Chen Guang.

"I think your business here is good." Chen Guang said, looking at the yard with his eyes.Although Fuxiangji is his property in name, it is his first time here today.

Su San said with emotion: "Yes, the quality of our yarn is better than that of other companies, and the price is the same as theirs. Of course, everyone will come to buy from us. Your Highness Jin Wang, with all due respect, our production efficiency is so high, even if we set the price You can make a lot of money by reducing it by half, and more people will come to buy it, so why can’t the price be lower than others?”

"You can't do business alone in this world, and everyone has to make a living. Although from a personal point of view, it is of course good to make more money. But for an industry, if only It’s unhealthy for a seller.” Chen Guang said, “It’s not a big skill to make money yourself, it’s a skill to let others make money while making money yourself.”

Su San had a thoughtful expression on his face, and after a while he smiled and said: "Understood, His Royal Highness Jin Wang really woke me up, listening to your words is better than studying for ten years."

This is Chen Guang's philosophy. He has always believed that monopoly has no future, and that complacency is just self-destruction of the Great Wall. Any industry needs competition and disruptors.

Another consideration is that once the price of the gauze produced by these machines is lowered, it will definitely be a disaster for the handicraftsmen. Although they will make more money, it will inevitably drive a group of people to a dead end. In such a situation, Chen Guang felt that it would be better for him to earn less.

"We have high profits now, so we don't need to be complacent. I don't think the money is enough. All the money must be reinvested in the manufacturing of spinning machines and factories. My goal is to allow all those craftsmen to work in my factory , I pay them wages every month." Chen Guang said.

This is his idea, and it is also the general development trajectory of modern enterprises.

Su San expressed his understanding, and the two talked for a while—basically, Chen Guang was instilling some basic concepts of modern enterprises.Although Chen Guang could be said to be a Luthor who accomplished nothing in his previous life, he has never seen a pig run and has eaten pork. He still understands the most basic concepts of corporate scale.

"Do it well, I support you." At the end, Chen Guang stood up, patted Su San on the shoulder and said.

Su San panicked immediately, and said: "I will not dare to disappoint His Royal Highness King Jin's love."

Coming out of Fu Xiang Ji, Chen Guang showed a faint smile on his face, now everything is under control, he couldn't help being unhappy.

As long as the project is expected to expand, family workshop practitioners can be absorbed into the system.When everyone agrees to this model, the pricing power will be in the hands of Chen Guang.

All in all, Chen Guang wants to do two things now. The first thing is to make these people get used to going to work, and the second thing is to let everyone go to work.

It may sound ridiculous, but it’s such a simple thing. Look at these people, howling they want to go to work. Every year during the graduation season, there are so many graduates who want to go to work.

However, in the feudal era, the completion of these two things was as significant as Pan Gu's creation of the world.

There is no rush for this matter, and Chen Guang is also very open-minded. This is a career that takes time to pass away slowly.

Then Chen Guang came to the Hope Project.Today's Hope Project is developing in an orderly manner.People who work here receive a salary once a month, including food and housing, a typical factory model.Entering the factory building, the rows of workers operating machinery gave Chen Guang a familiar feeling.

Upon receiving the news of Chen Guang's arrival, Yang Rong rushed over immediately.

"His Royal Highness, you haven't been here for a while." After not seeing him for a while, Yang Rong felt a little more capable.

Chen Guang smiled and said, "Isn't it good now? I'm giving you a chance to show off. It looks good now."

"What." Yang Rong frowned, and said, "I have something to discuss with His Royal Highness King Jin."

Seeing Yang Rong's expression, Chen Guang's smile froze.The current Hope Project is Chen Guang's biggest trump card, and it is absolutely impossible to go wrong.

"whats the matter?"

Yang Rongdao: "There are still more than 700 people staying in the Hope Project. Although various tasks have been assigned, there are still almost 1000 people who have nothing to do. We can't support them for nothing, right?"

After the beginning of spring, many refugees had already left the capital, but there were also some who chose to stay. Of course, Project Hope kept the most people.That's why Chen Guang needed to get out the loom in such a hurry, so many people couldn't live and live for nothing.

Chen Guang frowned. Before, he was always worried that he had no one to use, but now he was worried about too many people, and he was helpless—the most important thing was that the people who had nothing to do couldn’t make up what he wanted. This is the most embarrassing thing.

"This is indeed a problem. Have you thought about how to solve it?" Chen Guang asked.Obviously, as a prince, he must cultivate his own team, and the first person selected by Chen Guang was naturally Yang Rong.Many things are entrusted to Yang Rong, which is to train him.

Yang Rongdao: "Now the yarn we spin is selling well and making a lot of money. I'm thinking whether to expand the scale and build a few more factories, so that these 1000 people will have something to do and we can earn more. money."

When Chen Guang heard it, he smiled and said, "Yes, you think the same as I think. Since the momentum is very good now, why don't you expand the scale? I just came from Fuxiangji, and I saw that the things there are selling very well. Not bad. We can open a few more stores in a few other places."

Every shop has its scope of service, just like the customers of a small restaurant are basically the nearby residents, while the customers of a big hotel are people from a city or even other cities.Although Fuxiangji's items are good, they are not unique. People who live on the other side of the city will not go around the city to buy them. There is no need for that.

With Chen Guang's approval, Yang Rong seemed very happy and said, "Then I will do it right away."

Chen Guang encouraged: "Free your mind and go for it. I believe you can do it."
