Live as the emperor

Chapter 96 Industry Chain

The so-called "spring night is worth a thousand gold", the so-called "spring night is bitter and short, and the day is high", the so-called...

After working hard all night, the next day, until the sun was high, Chen Guang woke up slowly from his sleep. Beside him, Min'er and Zhou Zhiruo were still asleep.

Zhou Zhiruo was completely naked, her hair was disheveled, and she was lying on the bed in a large font. She didn't look like a lady at all, and the corners of her mouth were curled up, as if she was smiling. She must have dreamed of something wonderful again.

Min'er bowed her body and curled her legs, hiding in Chen Guang's arms like a kitten.

As soon as Chen Guang moved, Min'er woke up first. She glanced at Chen Guang sleepily, and asked, "Sir, what time is it?"

Chen Guang looked at the sky, but he was not sure, but it was bright anyway, he said: "I don't know, it doesn't matter what time it is, get up when you have enough sleep, and go back to sleep before you have enough sleep."

Min'er yawned and moved her body, but felt a soreness. Thinking of the big fight last night, she felt a little shy and said softly, "Enough sleep."

"Get up then." Chen Guang said.

Min'er sat up and realized that she was naked, so she quickly pulled a piece of clothing to wrap it up.Chen Guang said with a smile: "What to cover, and there are no outsiders."

"You're still laughing." Min'er snorted, and quickly got dressed. When she saw Zhou Zhiruo sleeping next to her, she remembered something, blushed, and got out of bed softly.

Chen Guang also looked over there, saw Zhou Zhiruo, and muttered, "You're so fucking unrestrained."

After tossing around for a while, Zhou Zhiruo also woke up. Seeing that Chen Guang and Min'er were both up, she was not ashamed, but just took her own clothes and put them on, saying, "It's so early for you."

Chen Guang pinched her plump buttocks, and said, "It's still early, the sun is already drying my ass."

Zhou Zhiruo gave him a blank look, and said, "Isn't it all your fault? I exerted so much force last night that it still hurts now."

Chen Guang was a little embarrassed and said: "Haha, well, after all, there are only a few months of inventory, haha..."

After getting up, washing up, and having breakfast, Chen Guang went to the Hope Project.

Yesterday afternoon, Chen Liang came to play and asked for special products. Chen Guang sent him away with a few pieces of beef jerky, saying that it was a special product of Chen Guo.Beef jerky was his military ration when he marched, and Chen Liang, the little prince, naturally had never eaten it. For the delicacies of mountains and seas in the palace, it was not very good.After finishing the special products, Chen Liang insisted on asking Chen Guang to give him another spinning machine for research. Chen Guang had no choice but to go to the Hope Project this morning to ask for one, not to mention that he hadn’t been to the Hope Project for several months, so it was time to pass Check it out.

At this time, he learned to ride a horse and asked the groom to lead the horse. He grabbed the reins and jumped up, sitting firmly. As soon as he clamped the horse's belly, he started galloping down the street. The feeling was like driving a sports car. Same thing.

After a while, he came to the Hope Project. When he got to the door, he suddenly found that the Hope Project at this time was very different from before.

The two-person-high masonry wall stretches to the river, replacing the previous wooden wall. The wooden door at the entrance has also become a large archway, which looks very grand. The roads inside are all covered with bluestone slabs, clean and tidy.The houses inside have all been changed to brick and stone, and it looks more like a mansion here.

It was a slum before, but now there are only two lions at the entrance pretending to be the prince's mansion. Such a huge change surprised Chen Guang.

Seeing Chen Guang coming, the gatekeeper rushed over to greet him and said, "His Royal Highness King Jin."

Chen Guang dismounted, threw the reins to him, and then went in. Not far from the gate, there was a small courtyard, which was Yang Rong's residence. Chen Guang went straight in.

The yard is not big, only two rooms, just a residence.Outside the gate, Chen Guang called out to Yang Rong. Yang Rong came out of the house, and when he saw Chen Guang, he was overjoyed and said, "His Royal Highness King Jin."

Chen Guang went in and sat down, and said, "This place has changed a lot."

Yang Rongdao: "About a month ago, I paid money from Fu Xiang Ji to repair the Hope Project. I didn't report it to His Royal Highness King Jin. Please forgive me."

Chen Guang said with a smile: "What are you talking about? I told you before that this hope project is now entirely up to you. As long as the purpose I set remains the same, you are free to toss about the rest. Besides this Well done, so how can I blame you. But then again, it's going to cost a lot, right?"

Speaking of money, Yang Rong's admiration for Chen Guang immediately flowed like a torrent of water. He said: "It took about [-] taels of silver to make everything from the inside to the outside. quarterly profit."

Five thousand taels is definitely a huge number. Even the prime minister's salary has not been so much in ten years. However, in Fuxiangji, this is only two quarters of profit, which means that Fuxiangji can earn 10 yuan a year. two silver.

How is this money earned?Of course, it was also the strategy that Chen Guang decided at the beginning. With the expansion of the Hope Project and the increase in production capacity, the yarn produced cannot be digested only by relying on the Fuxiang Records in the capital. As long as you hang up the brand of Fuxiangji and pay a certain franchise fee, you can open a store. All the supplies will be delivered to your door by Hope Project, and the Fuxiangji head office will take [-]% of the profits from the sold goods, and everything else will go to the store. The owner of the shop owns it, and besides paying taxes, the profit is very considerable.

In addition to profits, there is another point that makes people willing to join. Fuxiangji stipulates that in order to reduce competition, each county only opens one Fuxiangji account. Just do it all, and you can imagine how much profit there is.In addition, this Fu Xiang Ji is the name of His Royal Highness Jin Wang, and no one who is not open-minded dares to collect protection money, and the safety is also very guaranteed.

After the implementation of this policy, many businessmen saw business opportunities and asked to join in, and in the end they even took the initiative to raise the franchise fee.In this way, how many counties are there in the country?The franchise fee alone is not a small figure.

At the same time, the huge demand will naturally lead to the expansion of production scale, which is inevitable.Jin Kebi and Nian Wushuang are the only authorized multi-spindle spinning machine manufacturers. They hope that the expansion of the project will greatly increase their business volume. Now each has recruited hundreds of carpenters and has already grown into a well-known manufacturer in the capital. major taxpayers.To put it bluntly, in the business circle of the capital, the two of them are definitely internet celebrities.

As a result, Chen Guang's industrial chain has begun to take shape.

Nian Wushuang and Jin Kebi manufactured spinning machines, recruited workers to drive employment, and increased the income of carpenters. Later, they hoped that the scale of the project would be expanded to recruit weavers, and how many jobs would be absorbed.The direct effect of driving employment is naturally the increase in the income of these people. The increase in income will naturally lead to consumption, and the yarn woven will be consumed again. This cycle and expansion will drive the performance of all walks of life. Naturally, there will be more business taxes.

Marx once said that economy is the foundation and politics is the superstructure. If you don't have money, you can't do anything well. This is beyond doubt.The total economic volume of the Song Dynasty once exceeded half of the world's total economic volume, which was closely related to the commercial activity of the Song Dynasty.The sharp decline in the status of merchants should have happened after the Yuan Dynasty.

Everyone knows that the Yuan Dynasty was established by nomads, and their business was very bad. According to their logic, it is better to rob them than to let them make money honestly.So even if they took control of the Central Plains and built an empire, the logic of the robbers remained unchanged, thinking of taking all these things from the Central Plains back to their grasslands and it was over.After decades of robbing, the Central Plains people were starved to death by them, so they rebelled naturally.

Later, the Ming Dynasty was established. In the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang was a beggar. When he was young, he couldn't get enough to eat all the year round.For this kind of person, the greatest wish is of course to have enough food and warm clothes, but where do you get the food and clothes?Naturally, it is produced by agriculture, whether it is the whole grains to eat, or the silk and satin to wear, all of which require labor.But businessmen don't engage in these things, they just buy and sell. In this way, won't there be fewer people farming?With fewer people cultivating the land, the grain output will naturally decrease. Wouldn't that mean starvation and cold again?So under the guidance of this kind of thinking, coupled with the rise of Song and Ming Neo Confucianism, this ass determines thinking, and thinking determines behavior... then went astray, and the status of businessmen plummeted.

Of course, there is no need to talk about the rest, gossip less, it is Chen Guang who knows the development of this ancient society, and he will formulate such a reform plan. This industrial chain driven by Fuxiangji is exactly It is a pilot project.

While business has not been overly suppressed, highlight the importance of business. When business becomes more important than everything else, when this society becomes a real economic society, it will be impossible to suppress it again. Press down.

In the few months since this plan was implemented, at least in the capital city, the changes have been huge, and the direct benefits are naturally the brand new Hope Project in front of us.At the same time, by the end of this year, the commercial tax revenue in Beijing may also increase significantly.

After learning about the development and operation of the Hope Project in the past few months with Yang Rong, Chen Guangyou put forward some precautions. These precautions are mainly for deviations that are prone to occur in the implementation of various links. Write down one by one.

After leaving Project Hope, Chen Guang went to Nian Wushuang's house.Yang Rong said that the properties of Nian Wushuang's family and Jin Kebi's family had expanded several times, and Chen Guang didn't have any idea about it, but when he went to see it, he realized that the changes brought to them in the past few months were significant. How huge.

Jin Kebi and Nian Wushuang two families, one family occupied the street, and the other occupied the end of the street. Originally, this was a relatively remote alley in the capital, with more than a dozen families, but when Chen Guang appeared at the entrance of the alley, he found that this There are people coming and going in the alley, which is very lively.
