Chapter 120 Minimum Consumption

Since the emperor decided to fight, no one could stop it.He even beat Zhao Si in the hall, above the golden hall, that seemingly random question actually had a very clear meaning.That is to say, you boy came out of that corner, and now I am going to hit that corner!You'd better be honest with me, don't turn your tail up, I'm staring at you.

I don't know if this understanding is correct, anyway, that's how Zhao Si understood it.So at this critical moment, it is better to be careful.Things related to Liangshan have been put aside for the time being, and now we are going all out to roll out the plans for the capital.

The emperor gave Gao Qiu one gold medal and one gold medal, and the war started over there.In the future, every time he goes to court, the progress of this battle will be reported. It is said that the new firearms are showing their power, and the officers and soldiers are winning successively... But Zhao Si can only be cautious. In order to avoid suspicion, he does not inquire about this aspect at all. things...

He rushed to Ren Tongguan's place to ask for money.

"Enxiang, the boy has recently discovered a lot of profitable business in the city, and he has thought about it carefully. Now that he is ready to do it, I ask Enxiang for guidance!" Zhao Si bowed and bowed very respectfully.

"What advice can I give you! As smart as you are, aren't you the one giving advice on everything we do now? But don't think I'm stupid. Just open your mouth and I'll know what you're doing. !”

"hey-hey……"

"Tell me, how much?"

"It's not necessary, it's an advance payment... You should first estimate how much the boy's dividends from you can get at the end of the year, and pay the money to the boy first... Of course, if you have idle funds, you can invest, and the boy will give you money at that time." Breaking shares and dividends..."

"Then what are you going to do, boy?"

"Wazi, restaurants, teahouses, brothels, and other comprehensive entertainment venues..."

"If you make this kind of thing, then I won't give you a penny, and you will have to give me a dividend when the time comes!"

"The boy is waiting for Enxiang's words!"

"Hahaha, you just need to understand!"

Of course Zhao Si understood, he had to understand.If you don't invest a dime, they will invest in a banner, allowing you to do things in the capital blatantly under the banner of Privy Tong. If anything goes wrong, you can ask Privy Tong to come forward and solve it.This is a good thing that many businessmen in the world cannot find even with a lantern.This is actually a large intangible asset.It is caused by his power in the court and his current influence.

"However, you kid is a special person. Since you opened your mouth, I'll vote for some! Because I know you, you don't have much money! But you kid has never been a small hand in doing things, just what I give you Dividends, I guess it's still not fun...Since you want to play, let's play a big one! If you have anything to do in my name, no one in the capital dare not give Tong a face! "

"Thank you for your kindness! Great kindness will be rewarded!"

"I believe in your vision, just go ahead and do it! Just write down the amount of money you need and go to the accounting office to pay it..."

"Yes!"

In this way, the money is begging for it!As long as Tong Guan opened the mouth, money would not be a problem, and it could be supplied continuously like a river!Privy Tong's wealth cannot be underestimated...

Zhao Si paid the money in a hurry, and the carriage pulled a huge amount of banknotes from the cabinet, and returned home. He felt a feeling of getting rich overnight. This was Zhao Si's dream from the previous life to this life. Damn it came true... It feels really good, Zhao Si lay on the money, and began to conceive how to spend this stuff...

Time passed quickly, and two inconspicuous things happened in Bianjing City!The Xinyue Building in the east of the city opened, and began to recruit a large number of managers. This matter, to the common people in the city, still has some influence. After all, eating, drinking and having fun are related to everyone. Many low-level people were involved; there was another even more inconspicuous thing, a barren river beach outside the city was bought by someone, and a house was built quickly.The house was built very solidly. A dike more than one foot high and two feet thick was built with stones, and an area of ​​more than 1000 mu was immediately surrounded, and a house was built inside.

These houses have a very strange name, hanging at the door of the thick wall, called: Yingxing Company!

No one in this world understands what a company is and what it is.Only Zhao Si understood, because he was the one who made this thing.

During this period of time, Zhao Si was basically in a state of madness, he was crazy about copper!Copper is really hard to control and hard to find, but what he does must be done with this thing!
Because he is tinkering with electricity!He wanted to bring this god-like power into this world!Therefore, he racked his brains to design steam engines and generators, but the immaturity of the basic industry made these moves difficult for him.To build a steam engine, the steel is unqualified!To make a generator, the copper wire produced is too thick and not well insulated, and there are big problems in laying wires for long distances...

These bad things broke Zhao Si's heart, and the broken dumplings were like stuffing!
While Zhao Si was doing these nonsense things, he still had to imagine how his comprehensive entertainment venue would continue to operate!Everything in the early stage was easy to handle. He confidently handed it over to his housekeeper (the No. [-] housekeeper, Tongren, who was gifted by Shumi Tong) to buy a house, and took his blueprints to find a carpenter for decoration. Said: "A century-old plan is based on talents, so I still have to do it myself! I have to choose some people who I use sincerely, so that I can confidently hand over my industries to them. reason!"

So Zhao Si presided over the initial recruitment process, and naturally recruited Qian Weijia, Jiao Erpi and others!Then Qian Weijia and Jiao Erpi took care of the rest!
Zhao Si took a chance and handed over the secret letter he had already written to Qian Wei's family. Of course, this letter arranged what to do in the future, how to spend money, how to recruit people... Zhang Baoyun's subordinates were recruited in order to share information in the future. Of course, it was also to give Zhang Baoyun a dividend and solve their financial problems... This matter was also clearly stated in the letter...

The next Zhao Si belonged to the blast furnace that he had improved by himself. He smelted steel one furnace after another, and smelted copper after furnace. It took him several days to find the steel that could be used to cast steam engine parts. I found copper that can be drawn into very thin wires... I took detailed notes on this process, and preserved these things with the rigorous attitude of a scientist...

Doing this is not as simple as imagined, it is very boring, very boring, and very tiring... So Zhao Si needs to rest in the middle...

Rest can also generate wealth and should not be wasted!So he used this opportunity to start a class!

This is a special class, this class only trains one kind of talent - storyteller!

Now on the ground in Bianjing, most of the storytellers in Wazi City have become Zhao Si's employees!Training them is to support yourself with money!Because these people are invited here with incredible salaries!
Of course the salary money must be recovered from them!
The way of training is that Zhao Si tells them stories!This is a scientific way to rest.The so-called scientific way of rest is to change your thinking, jump out of those boring scientific thinking and enter into literary thinking, tell them "Journey to the West", tell them "Fengshen Romance", "Sui and Tang Romance", and change the time and place "The General of the Yang Family" with the same name, and of course "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"... "Water Margin" is not easy to talk about. No matter how you change it, you can hear the meaning. This kind of political matter, Zhao Si Don't be stupid, don't make such low-level mistakes...

Those storytellers, when they first heard Zhao Si say that they had to tell stories, they mostly didn't take it seriously, thinking that you are a child, you don't have any stories to tell?

But after listening to the first Journey to the West, everyone was convinced!The story of Monkey Walker has been told like this, and there is no one else...

These storytellers are eloquent, their memory is quite good, and their creativity is also quite good!The story that Zhao Si has told once is of course based on his memory, so it is not that good in terms of literary talent!This requires artists to go back and process it after listening to it!

After all, this is the Song Dynasty with the most literary splendor. Xiaobaiwen like Zhao Si will be laughed at by others. At least two lines of poems at the beginning, and a few lines of poems in the description at the critical moment, just like a chapter novel. that way...

The effect is quite good!The stories processed and recreated by storytellers not only retain the flavor of Zhao Si's stories, but also become the language vocabulary and information acceptable to people of this era...

According to Zhao Si's instructions, storytellers basically focus on one story first, and let them take turns playing in several venues for seven hours (of course, they have to leave a few hours for people to go to bed)!The stories of each of them are so full and full of taste. After telling them for a few days, the whole Bianjing Street began to spread. This thing came... But almost everyone who heard the retold stories felt itchy and couldn't stand it. Went up to Xinyue Building with money...

The venue was full for a while!The Qian Wei family quickly reported the housekeeper Tongren.

"This matter is actually very easy to handle. If we raise the threshold, wouldn't it be enough to increase the price?"

"No, no, no! It can't be like this! Listening to us about books is just to drive consumption! Hearing about books will cost you nothing in the future!"

"How can that be done? We are collecting money now and it is overcrowded. Now people come here early in the morning to queue up. Some people who have been unable to queue up for several days come here in the middle of the night. Some of them were arrested for breaking the night... If you don’t charge money, then beggars on the street can come in..."

"It's not good to collect money, but we can sell things to him! For example, how much is a bowl of light wine, how much is a bowl of tea, how much is a table of food, how much is a girl to accompany... We can set a price Minimum consumption...you can only listen to the minimum consumption..."

"Minimum consumption?"

"Yes, at least how much it costs us..."
