Chapter 339 Preliminary Establishment of Wholesale and Retail Markets

The couple discussed the plan for the reed swing, and then they had the goal of governance, and the following is to design some suitable tools for desilting. If you rely solely on manpower and pick a spade, you don't know when you will get it. What Erya wants is to convert the automatic excavators, sand fishing machines, sand dredging boats, sand conveyors, bulldozers, and earth-moving machines into semi-mechanical and semi-manual or animal power or pulleys and other time-saving and labor-saving things. At present, there are these foreigners here, and maybe with their joining, they will be able to help figure it out soon.

Erya drew on the paper these heavy machinery that she had only seen but had not touched, and the pedal powder machine she asked for over there had also been successfully tested. The old blacksmith with a strange temper must be personally delivered to Erya's hands, but Erya was not at home, and the stubborn old man forced Xiangzi to send him to Luedang with the machine.

Don't blame the old blacksmith for being so unreasonable, he really can't solve the knot in his heart. Only the second girl who often gets some weird things for him can make him feel that he is the skillful craftsman that his grandfather thinks very highly of.

Since he was a child, his grandfather often said that he had a very high talent for making new and strange things, but unfortunately he was born in an ordinary blacksmith family like them, and if he was born in a family of skilled craftsmen, he might be trained as a master craftsman. And he did exactly what his grandfather said, no matter how difficult and weird things you had, as long as you could tell me how much the structure was and what it could ultimately do, he could make it for you. Unfortunately, he has always stayed on his talent.

His blacksmith shop was small. His reputation is not obvious, and those rich and powerful rich aristocrats will not find him with any ingenious things. And he only has the talent of 'someone can understand, someone can point to understand'. But there is no genius who can create strange and rare objects out of thin imagination. Therefore, he spent the past few decades in regret, until Erya asked him to do some strange things from time to time, which made his blacksmith career in the past few years colorful, and his grandfather did not mistake him after all.

Originally, he also wanted to enter Erya's car dealership to work, because Erya required him to stop his blacksmith shop before he could enter the car dealership and concentrate on his work. He was reluctant to give up this ancestral family business, so he had to endure the distress and give up. I thought that Erya would not look for him again if there was a blacksmith with some skills in the family, but I didn't expect Erya to find him again. Let him help make this powderer. As soon as Er Ya said what it was like and what kind of effect he wanted to achieve in the end, he immediately had a general idea in his mind. Now that it's finally done, there's no problem with the effect. He just wanted Erya to see it for himself. At the same time, he also heard about the reeds. His intuition told him that the lady of the Wang family must have something new and weird to do, and he must meet her, get ahead of others, and win this opportunity to make something new for him.

The arrival of the old blacksmith surprised and surprised Erya. As soon as I wanted to doze off, someone gave me a pillow, which was really lucky. Still, those put down beforehand. Or take a look at this powderer. This kind of pulverizer only has a rotating knife, a connecting shaft, and a rotating shaft of the foot pedal, which must be cast in iron, and the rest can be replaced by wood. It's not too scrap metal. Erya immediately asked the old blacksmith to disassemble or not, separate the parts, and find a blacksmith nearby to build at least ten units. Then he told the old blacksmith that he wanted to make a mud machine that could be used in the water, and roughly said that he should use the shaft, claw teeth, pockets, connecting rods, lifting pulleys, parallel rolling pulleys, and so on. As she spoke, Erya also drew a general outline and various states at work. Of course, a few foreigners were also watching the excitement on the side, they didn't understand it very well, but when they saw Erya's drawing, they understood it after thinking about it. In the place where Erya's painting is not in place, the east is changed to the west, and it is really much more perfect than Erya thought.

The more the old blacksmith looked, the more he understood, and his nose was so excited that he wanted to make it, and he hated to go back and do it immediately. However, Erya is different from his idea, she likes to use wood to make models first, which saves trouble and time, and can also find problems in time and improve them in time. The old blacksmith knew that he couldn't beat Wang Niangzi, but he didn't want to go first, so he had to watch here, lest the second girl get rid of him and find someone else. Er Ya had already gotten used to this old man's weirdness a few years ago, so she didn't care if he left or not, it was nothing more than giving one more person food money.

With the gap, Erya and Xiangzi learned about the situation at home, "How is your building built?" ”

Xiangzi replied proudly: "We have already built six units, as long as the foundation is dug, the wall will be built very quickly." If it weren't for the cold, the cement wouldn't be usable as soon as it froze, and we wouldn't want to stop working. However, the digging of the foundation is still working, and next year we will build another six units of the house, and the year after next we will be able to go out and build the house. This year, a lot of people have come to ask us to build houses, and we have pushed them all. ”

"You don't have to wait until the year after tomorrow, next year you and Dahong will be separated, one will lead the team to do the outside work, and the other will continue to build a building with Master Cha. In the future, the best construction project you will receive is the building, we have our own cement, there is a special waterproof material for Master Cha, and no one can compete with you. If they can't count on this piece, they won't have the heart to make trouble, so that in the past few years, you can also do things in peace. When you take root in the construction area, you don't have to worry about others making trouble, and it doesn't matter what kind of project you want to take on at that time, as long as you can have the ability to do things well. ”

Xiangzi secretly admired in his heart: "It's still my sister-in-law who thinks thoughtfully!" When he suddenly remembered, he heard that the shopkeeper Liao was angry, so he thought about telling his sister-in-law: "Sister-in-law! When I passed through the town the day before yesterday, I found that Shopkeeper Liao had not gone to Fucheng, and I wanted to go up to say hello, but I heard him talking to Steward Xiao Shi very annoyed. It seems to say that there are some grocery stores in Fucheng that ask us to increase the commission for those things they entrust them to sell, otherwise they will no longer help with the consignment sales. Shopkeeper Liao was angry that someone was imitating the things made by the children and selling them to the grocery store at a low price, and those grocery stores seemed to have a lot of goods before they were reluctant to sell our things. ”

Erya listened to this but was not angry, let the children make things are simple and easy to learn, and it is not bad for them to earn money for two years without competition. Originally, she also asked Shopkeeper Liao to try to wholesale to those grocery stores, but people were afraid of losing money, so they wanted to sell on behalf of them. Now people don't want to help with consignment sales, and they have no choice but to grit their teeth and admit it. Businessmen are already profit-oriented, and it would be ridiculous to blame others for doing what they do.

However, the question always has to be solved: "Think about the child!" You've got something to do next year. I want to build a large wholesale mall at the north gate of Fucheng, where all our products are placed, and some workshops will also put their products here. We don't charge any consignment fees, only venue fees. In this way we can concentrate a lot of products, and we can not only get the economic benefit of rent, but also enrich our goods, so that all those who do small businesses will be willing to come here and wholesale the goods they need freely. They can replenish the shortage of their shops at one time, which is also a very convenient thing for them, and I believe that they will be able to attract a lot of businessmen to their doors. ”

Xiangzi didn't have this idea, and if he wanted him to build a house, he would build it. And Xiaohu and Erya have been together for a long time, and there is always some tacit understanding. As soon as he heard Erya's proposal, he immediately said with a golden light in his eyes: "Daughter-in-law! You're amazing, this is a great solution. It can definitely be done, and I'm sure it's going to be a hit. It's just, daughter-in-law! Why was it built at the North Gate? Isn't the South Gate closer to us? ”

"There is a lot of traffic at the North Gate, and we are not only doing wholesale, but also retailing. Moreover, the north gate is the only way to enter and exit the city from the north side of our state capital, and I would like to occupy the north market more than the south side. ”

I couldn't figure it out and asked, "Why?" ”

"The days in the south are relatively richer, even if they are some small east and west, they must be as delicate and gorgeous as possible, and the things made by our children are simple and rough after all, but fortunately, they are strong and durable, which is more in line with the use of people in the north who live in poverty. Since someone is stealing the children's business, then on the one hand, we let the children find ways to improve themselves, and on the other hand, we also have to help the children develop their strengths and avoid weaknesses. ”

Xiangzi and Xiaohu both felt justified, so they stopped asking. The powder machine over there has also been made, and the trial has passed, so Zhu Changming is responsible for arranging people to step on the machine to make powder.

Before going back, Erya was still not at ease, and repeatedly explained: "After this reed powder is beaten, it should be packed in a cloth bag and sent back as soon as possible." During this period, you must pay attention to moisture prevention and never enter the water. It can't be placed directly on the ground, and when stacking, a layer of partition should be placed at the bottom. ”

"Yes! Lady of the owner, I will definitely do what you say! "Zhu Changming knows for the first time that the lady of the owner also has such a long-winded time.

A few days after a large group of people returned to Wangjiazhuang, those foreigners were invited by the Qin prefect to Fucheng as guests. Erya knew that in the Damin Dynasty at this time, foreigners were common at the seaside, but there were still quite few people who went inland, but there were no ones who were feared by the government. Thinking that they would not have anything to do when they went to the prefect's place, they did not accompany them, but started the year-end audit at home.

Perhaps because of the rapid expansion of the workshop, the increase in personnel, the increase in affairs, and the sudden increase in income and expenditure into the accounts, the account books of each workshop have become a little chaotic this year. Some have numbers but no names, some have names but no numbers, and some numbers are obviously wrong. Because when he asked them to keep the accounts, Er Ya repeatedly stated that no matter what the circumstances, the accounts would never be allowed to be altered, and they could indicate errors or various reasons in the remarks that they were invalidated. Therefore, the only thing that makes Er Ya feel comfortable in this ledger is that there is indeed no alteration.

Although the problems are all trivial expenditure accounts, it has not yet affected the big accounts. But even so, Erya will not allow such a loophole. With the expansion of various industries, the complexity of things, the surge of personnel, and the chaos of finance, it is an urgent and inevitable need to formulate a sound management system.
