Take the mall to Datang

After Yuan Shan told him about it, he immediately understood something, and said, "The interest on the loan?"

Seeing Zhang Baojun's doubts, Yuan Shan said, "Don't worry, the projects carried out in Xinfeng County are all projects that benefit the country and the people. Money banks have regulations and there will be certain discounts. This is not usury."

Zhang Baojun was relieved a lot after hearing this, and he has already decided to ask about the loan tomorrow.

"What else is there to worry about?" Yuan Shan asked.

"Is it really possible to get enough money from the money bank?" Zhang Baojun was really worried about this.

"Let me tell you that there are relevant requirements for loans from money banks. The vegetable greenhouses in Xinfeng County are very profitable, and the income and expenditure are stable. Using it as a mortgage will not worry about any mistakes, and based on the benefits of vegetable greenhouses, it can be repaid. With the ability to pay, coupled with the special loan for the investment in the crushing plant, even if the project does not progress, it will be a big deal to let Qianxing take back the crushing plant project. No matter what happens, there will be no loss, and Xinfeng County only needs to owe money for a little interest. If you can get more money, what's wrong with that?" Yuan Shan said.

"Having said that, didn't the lower officials never do it before?" Zhang Baojun replied.

"You will become familiar with this model in the future. After all, the Ministry of Economic Development has some money but it is not for making money. You have to understand it." Yuan Shan said.

Zhang Baojun didn't say anything, there were many things he couldn't think of.

The production line and efficient management system of the crushing plant will be sold to you together. In addition, the gunpowder used to explode rocks in the mountains can be applied to the Military Supervision Department. OK.

What Yuan Shan said was quite simple. Zhang Baojun went to deal with a series of matters the next day. The Ministry of Economic Development came forward with the mortgage guarantee. There is no advanced supervision mechanism, so many procedural matters for insurance within the money bank are relatively cumbersome.

Zhang Baojun handed over the industry certificate of the vegetable greenhouse to Qian Xing for safekeeping, and then the shopkeeper of Qian Xing issued him an invoice of 30 guan.

At that time, Zhang Baojun was very excited, and the loan of 30 yuan was offered as he said.

On that day, one hundred thousand coins went directly into the treasury of Lord Hou's mansion, and was used to purchase the steam crusher production line, and the rest of the wallet had to be spent on rock cracking and hired labor.

After having the money, Zhang Baojun directly bought ten steam carts, as well as carts, shovels, picks, chisels and other tools.

It didn't take two days to start recruiting people. The recruitment notice was posted directly at the gate of the county government, and all the police officers were sent out to inform each township about the recruitment. .

Can the common people be unhappy when they hear that there is money to be made? The labor fee is five yuan a day, which is not high, but three meals are provided.

There is no limit to the number of people. Zhang Baojun's mind is about 500 workers, but he doesn't know how big the demand for crushed stones is. The Building Materials Chamber of Commerce has often blasted mountains in order to obtain crushed stones. There are as many as a thousand quarry workers. Even so, once the project starts, a large amount of gravel becomes a hot commodity.

The price is not high, but it can be regarded as a booming business.

Especially for the construction of several piers, the demand for gravel is very large. Without these things, the locals can only find masons to use large stone piers to build the construction. It is very strong but time-consuming and laborious, far inferior to concrete mortar. quick.

Under the leadership of Zhang Baojun, many people in Xinfeng County came to apply for the job. The Military Weapons Supervision put on a good look and paid the money, and the demolition team of the Military Weapons Supervision would be dispatched. They were all very experienced.

Start work after hiring personnel, and use manual labor when there is no steam crusher.

With the help of the Military Superintendent, everything went very smoothly.

On the second day after the gravel was excavated, Zheng Manchu found Zhang Baojun to place an order.

"I didn't expect Magistrate Zhang to do such a business. It's really insightful. The production of crushed stones is all manual, and the output is not high. Now Xinfeng County has opened a crushed stone plant, but it is very profitable." Zheng Satisfaction said.

Zhang Baojun laughed.

"I'm here to place an order today, and I have brought all the money." Zheng said with satisfaction.

Take out the money ticket and put it on the table.

Zhang Baojun was overjoyed when he saw that the amount on the money ticket was [-] guan.

Seeing the money ticket, Zhang Baojun didn't go to get it, but talked with Zheng Manfu about the price of the gravel.

After some discussions, Zheng Manchu left Xinfeng County very satisfied.

On that day, people from the Yamen went to inform the village gravel factory to continue to recruit a large number of workers. Anyone who was in good health could go to work.

Soon the number of quarrying workers reached 2000, and people in several townships have benefited.

In addition, the demolition team of the Military Weapons Supervision was invited again to start a large-scale bombing of the mountain.

The [-] guan payment that Zhang Baojun had just received was spent on [-] guan in the blink of an eye, and the truckloads of gravel were directly transported to Lantian County.

The number of employees is still increasing. The picks and chisels in the blacksmith shop in Xinfeng County are basically bought by the people in the yamen. The blacksmiths have also received many orders to produce quarrying tools.

In order to ensure the workers' meals, the yamen sent people out to purchase the pork raised by the merchants, and the pork raised by the merchants needed to be supplied on time every day, and the vegetable and rice shops had received orders.

A quarry increased the income of many people, and the number of quarry workers increased to more than 3000 in a few days.

The stone factory adopts the working hour system, and the day when the work is done, it is settled with the change of the work permit.

Even if you are tired, you can get paid on the same day. This alone attracts many people. Extra working hours will add one to two pennies. If you work hard, you will get more, but the system requires workers to rest. So there is a rule of taking one day off in the last two days.

The ten people in each group can take time off if they have something to do. The system is very flexible, so after a few weeks, one-third of the people in the entire Xinfeng County are working in the quarry, and the number has increased to 8000.

The monthly salary and food expenses are as high as [-] guan.

The output has increased a little but the cost has also increased.

When the delivery was settled, it was found that the net profit was less than [-] guan after a few weeks of busy work.

The project scale is large, but the profit is not high, but the vegetable greenhouse, and the business profit of the pig farm is very high.

This made Zhang Baojun a little dumbfounded.

Chapter 685 Steam Crusher

"Magistrate Guo, the quarry in Xinfeng County has come to deliver stones."

It was none other than Zhang Baojun, the county magistrate of Xinfeng County, who was sitting in the carriage shouting.

"Magistrate Zhang, please come here in person." Guo Shouyi greeted him with a smile.

In his heart, he knew that Zhang Baojun liked to show off, but he had to greet him with a smile when he came.

"This batch is the last batch of goods ordered by the Building Materials Chamber of Commerce. Of course, the county magistrate must be responsible for it personally." Zhang Baojun said.

"Let the carriage transport the gravel over there first." Guo Shouyi asked his subordinates to take charge.

The county magistrate Liang Ming went to the tent on the construction site to discuss matters.

"Magistrate Zhang, you have made a lot of money this time." Guo Shouyi said.

"If you don't make a lot of money, more than 1 people can work." Zhang Baojun said.

Guo Shouyi wanted to roll his eyes at him, not to show off, to let more than 1 people have work. With the current employment fee, Xinfeng County may surpass Lantian County in a year.

Compared with the background, Lantian County has more blood on the wall than Xinfeng County, but the situation may change if it continues like this.

"Then congratulations to Magistrate Zhang." Guo Shouyi said.

"Zhang came here today and has something to discuss with County Magistrate Guo," Zhang Baojun said.
