Chapter 1059 Carpentry Industry
It took a lot of effort to transport the caravan with the money, after all, it was a large amount of steam engine equipment, and it was difficult to transport it by ordinary carriages.
Fortunately, Youzhou has a specific towed carriage for transporting these devices, and this kind of carriage must be equipped with at least eight horses to be able to carry out long-distance transportation.
As a result, the samurai had to settle the costs for these caravans, which were much more expensive than ordinary caravanserais.
When the caravan arrived in the Tang Kingdom, the streets were full of onlookers, and what they saw was the widest main street where large carriages entered the city.
"Hurry up, I heard that those are the steam equipment in Youzhou, I have seen that one is used to build a house, which can lift wood to the roof."
There are people who know a little more and start to accept it for the people around them, and they all feel that it is very face-saving to be able to know about those devices.
These devices are very common in Youzhou, but this is the first time in Chang'an.
Li Yuan knew that when the caravan came back today, he had already waited for the imperial city with the Manchu civil and military forces, and they all had to see what the equipment that cost more than three million yuan was like.
And the people of the family are even more active than them, after all, many of the devices will be at the service of their family.
Wu Shi Tong did not return to the Tang Kingdom with the caravan, and he still had a lot of things to do, such as the purchase of fertilizer, and the investment in the Tang Kingdom.
Although he came as an envoy, he was a businessman after all, and he also wanted to plan for his family, so he wondered if he could find more cooperation projects.
Li De's attitude towards Wushitong is to welcome and send money, and there is no problem in cooperation without involving core technology.
The money from the old equipment this time can allow the castle guard to do a lot of things, especially for the resettlement houses of the newly relocated people.
Housing construction in the new city has already begun, and the start of construction means that there will be many jobs available, and 20,000 people have been recruited to work directly in the temporary tent area.
Three meals a day and salary, such a treatment is enough for more than 20,000 people to earn some living capital after a few months of construction.
Wu Shi Tong's days in Youzhou were not idle, and he was still unsatisfied after half a month of playing in the half-city inn, and he didn't want to go back to Chang'an when he saw the prosperity of Youzhou.
With his current family property, if he can settle in Youzhou, he can enjoy a rich life, but out of faith, Li Yuan's trust in him he doesn't want to live up.
After such a long period of observation, Wu Shi Tong is very optimistic about Youzhou's clothing industry, he has a new business of making cloth and ready-to-wear, but it is only good to open a city and county like Youzhou, if it is sold in other cities and counties, I am afraid that it will lose money.
At this time, the samurai thought a lot, and also had a new understanding of urban development, is it just a city that has changed, obviously not, just like Youzhou, the key is to make the people's lives better in order to stabilize the country.
I am afraid that special styles of clothing will not be sold, but it is possible to purchase a batch of cloth and then make it in the traditional style of Chang'an and Luoyang, and sell it to women with good status, so that things can gradually open up.
After the steam equipment was shipped, the samurai raised funds and began to place orders with the textile mills, and bought a lot of cloth of various styles.
These can be used as money, and the price of the new color cloth in Youzhou is the most expensive and very valuable.
Samurai Tong knows very well that he will be able to make at least 10% of the income if he goes out, so he has a large number of orders and treats big customers very face-saving.
Li De didn't care too much about Wu Shi Tong staying in Youzhou, anyway, whether he lived in a half-city inn or an inn in the city, the consumption was certain.
Although it is a messenger, three meals are not included, unless the envoy is invited to a banquet in the castle guard's mansion, but there is no such banquet.
The news of Tang's purchase of steam equipment spread quickly, so much so that suddenly many forces wanted to come and buy some, which was quite unexpected.
Youzhou City Guard, Xiao Mo rushed to Youzhou yesterday, and the purpose of his arrival was the same as that of Wu Shitong, who came to seek cooperation.
Some small investments have been insufficient for their development, and at present, Xiao Mo and Zhang Zhongjian have cooperated in many projects, rubber plantations, cultivated fields, and shipyard investments.
I heard that Tang Guodu began to do business with Youzhou, and they didn't want to be left behind, at least they had to know a little bit about the steam equipment, after all, the steam equipment of the new shipyard was also fortunate to be seen as an investor.
In particular, if the power used in the production of the workshop is replaced with steam, the cost and efficiency will be greatly reduced.
Several forces and cities and counties cooperating with Youzhou all know that the workshops in Youzhou use steam equipment, and with steam equipment, they can greatly increase the efficiency of the products made by the carpentry workshop.
Xiao Mo thought that since Youzhou can become a supplier of various shop products, they can do the same after they have equipment, taking Wagang City as an example, the bicycle processing line worth two million yuan is not the best example.
The projects he wants to do are not as good as those of millions of yuan, but it is also good to improve the efficiency of the woodworking workshop by hundreds of thousands of yuan.
Then there is some equipment that can process and polish ironware, if he is at most for money to buy equipment, but don't forget that his partner Zhang Zhongjian has never given up his ambition to dominate the world.
After Xiao Mo arrived in Youzhou, he didn't have as much face as Wu Shi Tong, after all, Wu Shi Tong represented the Tang Kingdom, and Xiao Mo was not a local force now, but more like a businessman near the fishing city.
However, it was still received by Wei Li, and compared to the situation of the samurai Tong Xiao Mill, he signed a cooperation agreement with Youzhou, so it will be easier to cooperate.
Xiao Mo was still thinking about how to talk about how to get the people in the city guard to sell equipment, but the other party agreed just as soon as he said it.
As a result, thirty old steam units were successfully sold after the reception in Weili, most of which were cut-off saws.
Wei Li didn't say much about Xiao Milling wanting to engage in the carpentry industry, anyway, the specific development depends on their business ability.
Through the sale of equipment, it was found that it seems that the woodworking industry is going to usher in the spring of development, Tang Guo purchased 20 cutting saws, Xiao Milling directly purchased 30 units, think about it and know that the future of woodworking products may really be able to form competitiveness.
Youzhou woodworking workshop, at this time the workshop is powered by newer internal combustion engines, not only ordinary cutting saws, but also large cutting saws can directly cut the whole material.
Weslie has already prepared to suggest that the advertising of the cutting machine should be the main content of this issue of the newspaper, and after some publicity, I believe that the sales of cutting saws will be better.
