Take the mall to Datang

"Eat, haha, yes, I'm really a little hungry when you say it." Yuan Shan said.

"Master, Miss is serving dinner, why don't you come down." He Yezi came over and shouted.

"Go down immediately." Yuan Shan replied.

"Ruolan, let's go to dinner first. After a while, you call someone over to learn how to use the sewing machine. Using this to make clothes can increase the output." Yuan Shan said.

"Husband, don't you take this sewing machine to the workshop for production." Dugu Ruolan immediately said, although she doesn't know much about these things, but every time there is a good thing, she will go to the workshop to make it first, and wait for the production After a certain amount, take it out and use it.

"Isn't the workshop busy now? It's not the right time to produce this sewing machine. It can't be produced now when I take it to the workshop. The output of the workshop is already at full capacity. Ruolan doesn't need to wait until the workshop is finished. A few more such devices will be produced after a while," Yuanshan said.

In fact, some technologies are not yet realistic for the workshop of the Yuan family. For example, it is very difficult to manufacture the needles and needle parts used in the blade machine. The only way is to use grinding, but it takes time and effort. The cost of imitation sewing machine will not be too small.

Chapter 302 Talking to Zheng Qi About Capital Injection

A week passed quickly. Yuanshan's research on his sewing machine at home was actually a training on the application of sewing machines for the female workers at home. For this reason, he specially bought a related book in the system mall, including some sewing machine manuals. Practical sewing methods, and re-transcribed the useful content of the book for female workers to learn.

So Yuanshan not only became the inventor of the sewing machine, but also created a set of Yuanshi sewing methods, which provided relatively advanced theoretical guidance for Datang's clothing business.

On this day, Yuan Shan had nothing to do and lay in the inner courtyard to enjoy the cool, with Dugu Ruolan and Du Ruhui sitting beside him, Yuan Shan was really lazy in the hot summer, so he lay on the lazy bed and enjoyed the summer warmth, as well as iced juice , Caiyi was busy serving on the side, her head was sweating, and Yuan Shan asked her to take a rest, but she didn't do it.

As a result, Yuanshan, the righteous master, had no choice but to eat the fruit that Caiyi fed him.

"Master, Zheng Qi is here." Zhirou said as she came in from the outer courtyard.

Yuan Shan was disturbed just now when he was enjoying the coolness of the iced juice. He thought that this Zheng Qi could finally sit still. Yuan Shan didn't care about Zheng Qi's visit at all. Both of them still have candle business. The problem with the Cotton Chamber of Commerce is that there are too many shareholders. Although Zheng Qi is a major shareholder, he is only one of the shareholders. From a business point of view, this is not a conflict.

But Zheng Qi hasn't been so active for a long time. Since the construction of the cement road from Chang'an City to Luoyang, he has rarely contacted Yuan Shan. I don't know that Zheng Qi has been developing business outside during this time. The rest of the Zheng family are in charge of everything.

Zheng's parents are big bosses in the Ansi weaving industry, and they have a dominant position, and they are also the leader in the warehouse logistics industry of the entire Tang Dynasty. The agency fee earned a lot of money from selling candles in other places. Yuan Shan actually knew that some commercial means would be used in the process of reselling, otherwise such a small kickback would definitely not be able to meet the needs of the Zheng family.

Yuan Shan doesn't manage these things, because he understands that there is no way to restrain them in this era. It's okay in Chang'an, but in the capital of Bizhou, there is nothing his Yuan family can do now.

Yuan Shan lazily arrived at the living room, saw Zheng Qi in good spirits and said, "It's been a long time, Manager Zheng, it's a good thing to see that your improvement is so good."

"Hahaha, Yuan Shilang, I came here today mainly for the affairs of the Cotton Chamber of Commerce. I went to Yangzhou some time ago, and I just came back yesterday and heard about Ma Zhou's transfer, so I came here to ask for money. Ma Zhou is a talent. Ma Zhou's sudden departure from the chamber of commerce is not a small loss for us." Zheng Qi said.

Yuan Shanxin said that he really knows how to call people. Ma Zhou is my employee, and I want him to work for you. I think you should just dream.

"The Cotton Chamber of Commerce is developing well now. It is not that Yuanjia's recent project requires Ma Zhou to come back to help. Although he is not working in the Cotton Chamber of Commerce now, he is still the liaison between the Cotton Chamber of Commerce and the Yuan Family. If there is anything, I will be here at any time." Pay attention." Yuan Shan said.

"I can also understand that what the Cotton Chamber of Commerce does is very worrying for the chairman, but as businessmen, we sometimes do wonders, especially because of the constraints of the family. There are some things we don't want to see. The chairman of the museum must also know about it, and now everyone knows that cotton cloth makes money, so many people have paid attention to this aspect, and this is something that cannot be controlled." Zheng Qi said.

"Okay, I have no objection to this matter. The purpose of establishing the chamber of commerce is to gather shareholders together to strengthen their strength. Isn't it for the sake of profit? I have no objection to shareholders opening garment stores, but the Cotton Chamber of Commerce is a community, so don't take it lightly. It's good to abandon it, especially your Zheng family." Yuan Shan said.

Zheng Qi's heart began to beat. He also agreed when the Cotton Chamber of Commerce opened garment production, but he was more concerned with maximizing profits, and didn't worry about the president who left his hands. However, it is understandable for businessmen to seek profits, and The chamber of commerce is originally a kind of combination and cooperation. If you don't agree, you will leave. It's a very simple truth.

Now hearing what Yuan Shan said, there must be something wrong. Zheng Qi is not stupid. Although he likes to play tricks in the business field, he still attaches great importance to what Yuan Shan said, so he immediately asked: "President, what are you doing?" What does this mean, how is the Cotton Chamber of Commerce and my Zheng family?"

"Your Zheng family has always been engaged in the silk weaving industry. Now that cotton appears, your Zheng family must have been hit a lot. This has caused your Zheng family to devote themselves to the cotton business instead of just waiting I am right about the dividends of the Cotton Chamber of Commerce." Yuan Shan said.

What Yuanshan was talking about was actually something that the shareholders were doing behind the scenes, especially the Zheng family who seemed to fully support the development of the Cotton Chamber of Commerce, but the greater the momentum of cotton, the greater the loss for their family, but such a huge investment in this project has already formed The situation is irreversible, so in order to reduce losses, the Zheng family can only devote themselves to it, especially the control of cotton in other prefectures is definitely the top priority, otherwise Zheng Qi will not be sent out for "business trips" , Even the Cotton Chamber of Commerce has no power to govern.

The merchants are well aware of these things. After all, it is a partnership business. When it comes to personal interests, the most authentic human nature will be revealed, so the actions behind it will be more than the Cotton Chamber of Commerce. Yuan Shan also I don't want to analyze the secrets behind these shareholders, but the Cotton Guild will end early if it continues like this. By then, Datang's textile industry may enter a new period of development, but judging from the current environment It's still a little early.

In order not to destroy the situation of the collective handicraft industry opened by Yuan Shan, he felt that it was necessary to intervene, at least to maintain it for a little longer, so that the current form of the factory could last longer.

Zheng Qi did not deny it, and Yuan Shan continued: "It's actually very simple. The output of handcraft workshops cannot unilaterally satisfy the market. Presumably you have also seen the advantages of textile factories. It is the most wise to rely on factories to establish a textile hegemony." of."

"Now the chamber of commerce is a very good platform. In fact, the textile mills of the chamber of commerce and the Zheng family's textile mills are not in conflict. Now the cotton cloth market in Datang is blank. What we need is to increase production capacity. Why do I say that the chamber of commerce treats your Zheng family It is very important, the reason is that it is good to develop under a common market rule. At this stage, reducing competitors and developing textile factories is simply a cornucopia. In terms of the current joint-stock system of the chamber of commerce, we only need to talk about other companies. If you agree with the Zheng family to continue to inject capital, then your Zheng family will get the most from this cornucopia, and the joint efforts will not invest much for you." Yuan Shan said lightly.

Chapter 303 Time and Money

Zheng Qi is a good business man. What Yuan Shan said made him feel that this capital injection model is very novel. Although he still doesn't understand many things, but as Yuan Shan said, the Zheng family will gain More benefits, and in the process, the part shared by other shareholders is also operable.

"President, why did you tell me this?" Zheng Qi asked curiously.

Yuan Shanxin said that this Zheng Qi was really not an ordinary person, he noticed the key point of the matter so quickly and did not hide it, so he said: "A big businessman must have a big structure. I believe that with your ability, you don't really need your family to support you. The existing Cotton Chamber of Commerce is a good platform, there is no shackles, only your own choice."

Such words are very tempting to Zheng Qi. The wealth of the Zheng family does not only belong to him alone. What he is doing now is the same as the situation of the family business. It is a tool to make money. The process from heir to owner is full of harmony. fierce competition.

Especially in this era, the profession of ranger is very common. Needless to say, they know what they do, they do it arbitrarily, and they don't follow the laws of the Tang Dynasty at all. As long as there is no evidence, there is nothing wrong with these people.

Fighting openly and secretly, people who are desperate for wealth can have no moral bottom line at any time. Although Yuan Shan doesn't know the specifics of the rich families in Chang'an, there are many things involved in being able to develop such a large family business in this era, and it is inevitable that some Disgraceful thing.

Yuan Shan also didn't want Zheng Qi to get caught up in it. He still hoped that he could promote the economic development of the Tang Dynasty according to the commercial route he proposed, so as to promote the status of businessmen in the Tang Dynasty. What he needed was a stable society of the Tang Dynasty.

When he opened his eyes, there was a bright light in his eyes. He knew what Yuan Shan said, but there were some things he could not decide, but he immediately had some thoughts in his heart, saying that Yuan Shan was proficient in business at a young age. I can come up with very good ideas to make money, but people's hearts are like this. Although I don't know what he is planning, what he said today really proves that his wisdom is not ordinary Kobe's. Although I am inseparable from the Zheng family, but If the little girl Zheng Xiujing is betrothed to him, wouldn't it be a family.

Yuan Shan didn't know that when he was planning Zheng Qi's idea, the other party was also planning his idea, and saw Zheng Qi's smiling face was revealed again. This is the most characteristic feature of this guy. I couldn't tell whether he was really smiling or not.

"President, it's been a long time since we have exchanged information about the chamber of commerce. How about visiting my Zhang family tomorrow." Qi Qi said suddenly.

He wanted to treat guests to dinner, Yuan Shan suspected that this guy had impure motives, and asked casually, "Shopkeeper Zheng is busy, so it's not good."

Yuan Shan had the intention to refuse, and was going to say something tactfully, first to chat a few words casually, and Zheng Qi said: "Actually, to tell the truth, the president, I came to visit today to ask for something, it is about the Zheng family football team , isn’t it going to be a match with the Xue family in three days, I want to ask the president to guide me.”

"Football team, I didn't expect someone in your family to like this." Yuan Shan asked casually.

In fact, when he heard about the football game, Yuan Shan’s heart became a little more active. Datang Entertainment is really too boring. If you watch a football game, it’s called enjoyment. There are not no football games, such as You Wuhou and You Wuwei. The football team formed by the family army, just practice that kind of violent football when there is nothing to do. Yuan Shan is tired of watching it. A group of big-headed soldiers don't care about the importance. Anyway, they have no rules at all. The football game is almost becoming their two armies. It's a match, so Yuan Shan still hopes to see a real football match. Presumably, the businessmen's team should play more excitingly.

"Okay, let's go and have a look tomorrow." Yuan Shan said.

Zheng Qi's careful thinking is very good, and it is a compulsory course for businessmen to match what he likes, so Yuan Shan immediately became interested in it.

"President, then Zheng will stop bothering me, and I will clean the bed tomorrow." Zheng Qi said.

"Suddenly, I'm a little bit uncomfortable." Yuan Shan said casually.

Yuan Shan walked leisurely in the living room with his hands behind his back, and no one came to disturb him, so he began to think about things like this, thinking that he would go to Chang'an again and stop by the business center to see Sun Simiao's nurse team training It is also a good time to take a look at the progress of the hospital renovation.

It took a long while before people were called to prepare the carriage, and Yuan Shan followed. Yuan Shan arrived at the place half an hour later, and the business center became a construction site. In order to ensure the fastest use of the hospital, Ma Zhou dispatched After coming over, some skilled workers were dispatched directly from the centralized warehouse to carry out construction.

In addition, farmers near the Lantian County Government were hired as helpers. This Lantian County Government is very lively. When there are too many people, people who do small businesses all come out to set up stalls. The farmers settle their wages every three to five days. They are all temporary workers. Anyway, if you want to do it, no one will force you to keep it. This makes the farmers feel very humane, so those people with small minds come out to sell pancake dough and so on.

Temporary workers don’t care if they only earn ten yuan a day for food. Most of them do heavy lifting work. Five yuan for a meal can buy five super-large flax cakes, which is definitely enough to eat.

In this day and age, a chicken only costs a lot, so Bi Luo (pie) is the best seller. When Yuan Shan got off the carriage, he saw Ma Zhou and a group of people waiting to set up a shed for the construction command post outside the business center. , Looking at the engineering drawings on the table, this posture really looks like a construction site is under construction, don't you know that they are remodeling and decorating the medical hall.

Temporary warehouses were set up on one side. Yuan Shan saw that there were all wooden single beds in the shed of the good guy. It seemed that there could be hundreds of them, and there were people carrying them down from the carriage.

Yuan Shanxin said that it must have cost a lot of money to hire so many people for such a big battle, and Yuan Shan liked the efficiency.

"Master, you are here. The medical hall is being remodeled and renovated, the medical hall clinic is being renovated, and the inpatient building is being remodeled with compartments. The wooden single beds needed by the medical hall are still missing a considerable part, but there are still many carpenters. It will take some time for the goods to arrive here." Seeing Yuan Shan, Ma Zhou immediately made a short report.

"Well, you can figure out how to handle these things. How many people you have hired is like building a new business center." Yuan Shan joked.

Ma Zhou smiled and said, "Young master, didn't you say that time is money, so you trade money for time in order to speed up the progress."
