Take the mall to Datang

"President, I'm fine." Ma Zhou said.

Yuan Shan said in his heart that it's all right, no wonder he doesn't live long after becoming a prime minister, it's good if you don't pay attention to rest and don't die suddenly.

Immediately turned around and left, and brought several people over when he came in again, Yuan Shan pointed to Ma Zhou and said, "Take Ma Zhou back to me to rest quickly, he is not allowed to work tomorrow."

Yuan Shan's rage immediately attracted the attention of the chamber of commerce's management, and many people rushed over.

Looking at these good guys, almost all of them look like they have worked overtime, and they can calculate how much money they make every day.

Zhang Xingzhi's condition was similar to that of Ma Zhou, and he was still very excited. Yuan Shan immediately said, "You workaholics, start recruiting tomorrow."

After the clan dispersed, Yuan Shan called Zhang Xingzhi to the office.

Yuan Shan said: "Now that the workload is so heavy, didn't Vice President Zheng Qi and Director Xue Kai ask about these things?"

"President, in fact, we have discussed this matter together, but we are indeed short of manpower. The transport team of the chamber of commerce has to pack a lot of goods every time they set off. The chamber of commerce can earn traveling expenses from it, which can basically earn back the cost of transporting cotton. , but this part is a lot of work. Ma Zhou has been dealing with the work of reviewing these invoices, and we are responsible for the specific matters of purchasing and loading. The sources of goods are basically from the Zheng family, the Xue family and other members of the chamber of commerce. There is not enough manpower here, let alone recruiting people from the chamber of commerce, there is really no suitable one." Zhang Xingzhi said.

Yuan Shanxin said that these businessmen really know how to do business, but this is good, it does not touch the fundamental interests of the chamber of commerce, and it can also avoid running empty cars for nothing.

"I know, everyone should not work overtime from today. After the end of this month, each person will be paid twice as much bonus. Also, the chamber of commerce needs to hire an accountant to tell other big shopkeepers, let them mobilize their energy and recruit as many people as possible. If it doesn't work, then... Hey, by the way, isn't there a promotion exam for female workers this week, forget it and let me handle it." Yuan Shan said.

Suddenly, it occurred to me that the female textile workers went to class on Saturdays and Sundays. Aren’t these people ready-made training targets? Just now, I thought that there was not even a female secretary in the office building of the Cotton Chamber of Commerce, so it’s better to select some female workers. Set up a secretarial team and lead them so that they can share a lot of management workload.

In the office, think about how the secretaries are all wearing long skirts and stepping on high heels, making slapping sounds, and how it feels like a group of people wherever they go. Would it be more interesting than being in the manor...

Chapter 184 CBD Commencement

Ma Zhou came back to work after a night of rest. Yuan Shan wanted him to rest for an extra day, but he was a person who couldn’t be idle, but he only let Ma Zhou rest when he emphasized that he should keep at least six hours of rest every day. continue working.

Originally, I wanted Ma Zhou to do other things, but now it’s no use. The Cotton Chamber of Commerce is really busy. In order to manage the Chamber of Commerce well, Yuan Shan always runs to the Chamber of Commerce these days. There are not a few female workers who come to class on the 20th. After this round of examinations, [-] people have met the promotion standards, and eight of them have been successfully promoted to foremen because they are more suitable for production work.

The remaining 12 people were directly assigned by Bie Yuanshan to her office on the third floor. After one-on-one interviews, six people decided to join the president's secretariat, and the remaining six people were sent back to the textile factory.

Unbeknownst to Ma Zhou, he suddenly became the superior of these six women.

In the office, Yuan Shan said: "Let's call you by your first name, it's easier to hear than calling you by your surname."

These six people all came from the public, and the maids all had names after death. Originally, Yuan Shan wanted to call them by their natal names, but it was Mrs. Yang who thought it was too troublesome when she opened her mouth, so she just called them by their maid names. This woman is quite used to it, and it would be really awkward if they were really called by their original names.

"Xiaoshuang, Wanxiu, Cuibai, Yunting, Qingxue, Jingqiao" six girls have been trained by Yuan Shan since today. Yuan Shan is very experienced in this kind of thing. The first thing is to be multiplied. Then I took the abacus and started teaching them how to use it.

For three days in a row, these six women have mastered a little bit. Although they are not familiar with it yet, they have improved a lot. Then when Yuan Shan came to the chamber of commerce, he brought Qin Si and the others to continue the training, and Yuan Shan himself It's on the table that keeps thanking you for drawing.

Qimeng has been observing from the side, and after looking at it for a long time, she couldn't figure out what these things are, so she asked directly: "Master, what are so many separate boxes?"

"Your imagination is too rich. Is this a box? This is the future Lantian County CBD building." Yuan Shan said.

"What are you talking about, young master?" Qi Meng asked in a puzzled voice.

"It's the business center. After these buildings are completed, they will be leased to various chambers of commerce. At that time, this place will become a gathering place for businessmen." Yuan Shan explained.

"Master, Qimeng still doesn't understand." Qimeng said softly.

"Hey, your IQ is really worrying. If you haven't drawn for a long time, the line is a bit crooked. Let's use a ruler." Yuan Shan admired his design drawing of the CBD building and was very dissatisfied. Simply take a pencil and a wooden ruler out of your pocket and start drawing again.

"Qimeng, why do you keep pestering the young master? The sisters are all working hard to hand over their plans, so don't be idle." Caiyi directly pulled Qimeng away, which made Yuan Shan'er The side is much cleaner.

As soon as he started painting, he heard Qin Si reprimanding Wanxiu. Why did this scene seem familiar? Yuan Shan was a little embarrassed. Isn’t that why he was so strict with Qin Si at the beginning? Cried twice.

I don't know if Qin Si learned from Dugu Ruolan or Du Qianyu in the Queen's face, but now she is showing her face to the fullest, and these six girls are being trained like sheep.

Strict teachers produce high-quality apprentices, but if you are not strict, how can you cultivate excellent talents.

After a while, Yuan Shan's shooting picture was almost finished, so he said: "Haha, you're done."

Yuan Shan called all the girls to admire his masterpiece, and Qi Meng said, "Master, there are six boxes."

"Qimeng, you can't help it. These are office buildings, not boxes." Yuan Shan explained helplessly.

"This CBD consists of six three-story office buildings, each of which is three times larger than the Cotton Chamber of Commerce." Yuan Shan said proudly.

"Master, it costs a lot of money to build these buildings." Lan Lan said.

"Haha, it's not short of money." Yuan Shan said with a smile.

Yuanshan is about to start the construction mode. The Yuan family has tens of thousands of taels of gold, and the copper coins in the basement have piled up into a hill, and they will rust if they don’t spend them. This is Yuanshan’s style.

Now at this time, the Sanlizhuang construction team can only be dispatched back. The cement road of the Zheng family is progressing very fast, and it is estimated that half of the road will be ready for use after the busy season.

In the next few days, Yuanshan was busy building a new office building, while the four major female secretaries came to teach the six girls to learn how to calculate accounts. These were not difficult things. After a week, the six female secretaries began to work in Yuanshan. The president's office started working, and all six of them were handed over to Ma Zhou to take care of them. Ma Zhou was still very resistant at first.

Later, after sharing some of the work of checking the accounts, he found that he was relaxed in an instant, and he gradually got used to it.

Next, the construction of the office building began under Yuan Shan's help. Half of the construction team from Sanlizhuang was directly transferred back. The helpers were found by Lantian County Magistrate Guo Shouyi in several surrounding villages.

With no shortage of money, hundreds of people were directly hired to start work, and the Lantian County was immediately bustling.

As soon as I heard that there are workers in Lantian County, each person pays [-] cents a day for free food. Many people come to work, and this solves the living problems of many people. Guo Shouyi is the happiest. Those refugees who have not registered I can't get hungry anymore.

But the matter didn't seem to end so easily. Yuanshan's recruitment didn't have a limit on the number of people. He didn't have to worry about too many people for such a large-scale project, and he didn't want to wait too long. Anyway, he had money to squander.

In less than two days, thousands of people gathered in Lantian County, and all the members of the Sanlizhuang construction team were dispersed into small captains. One person led more than ten people and began to work and study at the same time.

Now Yuanshan will have a new change every day. With more people and more strength, the speed of the big foundation is much faster than expected. The more subcontracting responsibility system is done, the more will be given. stand up.

Time flies, when production was going on outside Lantian County, General Tianjie of the Tang Dynasty and King of Yan County Li Yi rebelled in Jingzhou, and within a few days, the matter was quelled, and finally ended with the rebellion as the victory and his own death , but it has become something that the common people talk about after dinner, and they all talk about it secretly.

Li Shimin was very angry when he found out about this incident, and his career began to have some small twists and turns.

During the busy season, all the rich merchants in Chang’an City went straight to Chengdu. This year’s cotton planting is not much, and most of the land has been replaced by corn projects. Even so, there is still a lot of cotton hoarding. Now after returning to Chang’an from Chengdu, The main haulage is cotton spinning thread, and the two regions started production together, and the speed of spinning thread has been accelerated a lot.

Chapter 185 Benefit Distribution

The merchants were crazy. When the cotton needed a lot of transport capacity, many small merchants rushed to Chengdu to directly organize the production of cotton spinning thread locally. The value of the processed spinning thread was much higher than that of cotton. More can be loaded in the transportation, so some small merchants quickly accumulated a lot of money, and spinning workshops appeared one after another.

This quickly formed a gathering place around the cotton planting area. Even on the road between Chang'an and Chengdu, there were several post stations specially provided for passing convoys to rest. There was also an endless stream of businessmen coming from the southeast. Cotton was sold to many cities in the south.

The female workers in the textile factory are very busy. A large number of cotton orders have been transported back and forth fifteen times from the beginning of cotton transportation to the large transportation team organized by the Chamber of Commerce. At least 150 million catties of cotton are transported each time. It can make 30 pieces of cotton cloth, and a single transportation can earn more than [-] guan. The transportation fee for horses and horses needs to be at least [-] guan. In addition, the goods shipped from Chang'an can fill part of the freight, and one trip is twice the freight.

Fifteen times of transporting the Cotton Chamber of Commerce has earned at least 30 guan so far, which is 3 taels of gold in terms of gold, which is basically a return of capital compared to the cost invested by the 23 merchants at the beginning.

This is just statistics from the perspective of the Chamber of Commerce, and people other than the Cotton Chamber of Commerce go to the local area to pull cotton. The money earned is all owned by the merchants, and this part of the money will not be too small.

After several months of accumulation, the capacity of the chamber of commerce fleet including all members has at least doubled. However, with the development of the cotton market and the people of Tang Dynasty going to repair it, merchants in some cities very close to Chengdu began to benefit from it.

This month is the time for the textile factory to find out again. Every female worker gets a monthly salary including food and housing, and the foreman’s bonus is even higher. The female worker's wages have also increased, and the cost has reached nearly [-] guan per month.

In the office of the Cotton Chamber of Commerce, today is a routine meeting before wages are paid, and it is also the day when all shareholders come together the most. Not only female workers have to pay, but shareholders also have to pay dividends.
