Take the mall to Datang

"I didn't expect your Ministry of Industry to be quite fast." Yuan Shan said.

Ordering the goods is naturally done by someone, and he is only responsible for signing the documents. After the matter is settled, the carriage will be handed over to the Economic and Development Department, and the final payment will be settled later.

It will take some time to transport the money from the treasury of the Economic and Development Department of Shangshu Province, so the two of them started chatting again.

"Yuan Pushe, this saw is really easy to use. His Majesty has already promised to let the Military Weapons Supervisor customize a batch of equipment for the Ministry of Industry. This matter will not affect you." Yan Lide asked.

"It's no wonder that imitation with Lao Tzu's equipment doesn't affect it." Yuan Shan thought.

"Of course not, the Armed Forces Supervisor has already paid the money." Yuan Shan said.

In fact, what the imperial court gave was not patent royalties, but invention fees, just like in Quyuanli, he didn't care about it at all.

"Your Majesty attaches great importance to the Ministry of Industry. With these table saws, the wood processing will save a lot of effort." Yuan Shan said casually.

"Yeah, by the way, there is one more project to discuss today." Yan Lide said.

"What is it?" Yuan Shan asked doubtfully.

"The imperial court is planning to order a batch of carriages. Can the bearings needed on the carriages be more profitable?" Yan Lide said. Obviously he is not good at bargaining, but it is easy to bargain.

Yuan Shan understood immediately that the imperial court had placed the order, and asked curiously, "How many bearings do you want?"

He would not easily agree to lowering such a thing. Promotions are promotions for a certain purpose. Now that he is not short of money, he will not take the initiative to propose a price reduction. Just ask tentatively.

Chapter 546

"Three thousand sets." Yan Lide said.

"We can talk about it," Yuan Shan said.

Yan Lide laughed when Yuan Shan said so, and answered that such a simple price should be more favorable.

This is the second largest order received by the Ministry of Industry, and it was formulated by the imperial court. Although the price is not as good as the order benefits of the Ministry of Economic Development, but this way the Ministry of Industry can fully move, and with the profit of the scarf, it can barely reach the self-operated price. state.

This batch of bearing orders is enough for the bearing factory to produce for one month. If all the production capacity is fully started, the time will be shortened by half. However, there are not so many people in the bearing factory now, so the delivery deadline is [-] vehicles a month.

The payment for this batch of goods will not be received until at least half a year later. Originally, Yuan Shan didn't want to agree, but he agreed in the end because the Ministry of Economics and Development made a guarantee for the imperial court, so that he would not be afraid that the imperial court would cheat him.

After the discussion was secure, the two signed the order immediately, and the first payment in advance was nothing but direct treasury expenditure.

After the beginning of winter, after a few college games, the territory of Datang became snow-white, and the hired workers should rest. Although Chang'an Avenue was deserted, it was very lively in some counties.

They don't need to worry about the curfew, and there is a lively market, and the gymnasium is now being renovated very well, and many people visit it every day.

By the way, you can also find a guy who carries the goods here.

After such a long period of development, the market in Blue River Village has undergone new developments.

In particular, a family of cobblers developed from a small stall to a cobbler shop, and it took only a few months for this road to fortune.

Now they are legends in the bazaar, they are An Shi and An Youlin father and son, from the last purse to various purses later, the combination of relatively new style and use, although there is suspicion of imitation, but this It is undeniable that their products have been welcomed by many people. Although the workmanship is not as bright as the leather products in the mall, they are more practical and cheaper.

The Anjia cobbler's shop is very famous now. The tailor-made backpacks made by Anjia father and son for scholars are durable, much more convenient than bamboo and wooden frames.

But these are not the foundation of their fortune, because Anjia's leather boots are the most profitable.

Due to the excellent workmanship and favorable price, many drivers and laborers buy shoes here. A pair of shoes can last longer, which is the reputation of Anjia Leather Goods, and it is also a means of publicity.

Over the past few months, I have received a lot of orders. Originally, the An family and his son lived in Xinfeng County, but in order not to waste time going back and forth for business, they simply worked and lived directly in the store.

So this Anjia can be regarded as the first person to live in the market.

It's just that people don't expect that people who have the first in everything will have the second and third, and then many merchants also began to live in the market. Doing business this way saves travel.

In this way, the market in Blue River Village was quite lively before the winter. After the winter weather cooled down, the shops here also installed water jacket furnaces, and the shops were still very warm.

As for the number of people setting up stalls outside, it began to decrease, but the popularity of the passenger flow has not decreased, mainly people from Lantian County come to stroll.

In addition, the construction team in Chang'an City stopped working. After a year of busy work, they naturally wanted to take advantage of this free time to come out and relax. Listening to books in teahouses and shopping in markets have become their living habits.

Some wealthy people will also go to the Chunmanyuan Song and Dance Hall to enjoy it, and three or five people will get together to eat hot pot and drink wine.

The prosperity of Chang'an did not know when it started to change from lively to food and clothing.

Popsicles, cola, soft drinks, shaved ice, candied haws, etc. have all become essential things in winter.

It started this winter. People found that there seemed to be more and more horse-drawn carriages in Chang'an City, so many that they had already affected the travel of pedestrians, and trucks could be seen going out of the city and entering the city every day.

What is even more exaggerated is that it is not Chang'an that the horse-drawn carriages pass by the most, but the surrounding counties, especially the counties where pig farms are distributed. Zhong Ke happens all the time.

For this reason, some county magistrates also expressed their gratitude for visiting many businessmen, which made the vanity of the businessmen even more vigorous, and they were able to gain a good reputation while fully guaranteeing their own interests.

It turned out that on the third floor of the teahouse, all the people with positions above the head of the Economic and Development Department gathered together. Today is the last meeting of this year.

Yuan Shan didn't have long speeches, only explanations and instructions.

"Today is the last plenary meeting of the Ministry of Economics and Development in the fifth year of Zhenguan. Time passed quickly. Everyone's dedication and rewards are obvious to all. Today's Ministry of Economics and Development can develop to this scale. Your credit will not be erased. In addition to paying year-end bonuses based on performance, I would like to say one more thing, which is to settle the loan from the Ministry of Economic Development in advance according to the agreement with His Majesty." Yuan Shan said.

The settlement of the loan means that the task assigned by His Majesty has been completed, so there is no reason or excuse for His Majesty to protect the interests of the Ministry of Economic Development. At this moment, everyone is thinking about a lot of things.

"Why pay off the loan early."

"Is something going to happen?"

"Yuan Pushe is going to resign again?"

"What will happen to the Ministry of Economic Development in the future?"

"what do I do."

In short, at this moment, many people are thinking about a lot of issues, but Ma Zhou, Yu Jingming, Hao Dayi, Liu Tong and other senior managers are thinking about more things, because they know that once the loan repayment is over, it will be equal to the Ministry of Economic Development. The project will be unrestricted, and it will definitely not be operated for the purpose of repaying money in the future, which is definitely what His Majesty Tang wants to see.

Maybe it will be disbanded immediately after the settlement, and the money in the treasury will be divided between the Ministry of Economic Development and the court, or it may take the divided money to work alone, and establish a new chamber of commerce, such as a company.

These things are all unknown, and I don't know what kind of consideration Yuan Shan has, but this matter must be considered.

There will still be liquidation in a year. The current Ministry of Economic Development has the same scale as the six departments, and it even has more say in terms of authority and capacity than the other six departments.

"Everyone, don't make things too complicated. The purpose of repaying the loan in advance is to avoid being restricted. Did you decide that the only purpose of the Ministry of Economic Development is to create double income for His Majesty?" Yuan Shan said.

Many people start to think along what Yuan Shan said.

"At least I don't think that the work of the Ministry of Economics and Development is to double His Majesty's interests. In my opinion, the Ministry of Economics and Development should have a bigger stage, should create more benefits for the people of Datang, and should let the society of Datang The economy will develop faster." Yuan Shan said.

Chapter 547 Repayment

Everyone was shocked, not by Yuan Shan's goal, but by the throbbing that could touch the lofty dreams in people's hearts.
