"Weili, this is the thing, business development should be carried out in other cities and counties at the same time, not only in Youzhou, the development of other cities and counties will be proposed at the next meeting, give some welfare support to the cities and counties, and attract businessmen to the past.

"I'll do my best."

Li De directly put pressure on Wei Li and entrusted him with a heavy responsibility, in fact, there are many things that he can't say directly, which will seem too demonic.

The sixteen states of Youji, the sphere of influence is very large, and the development model of the city guard mansion is the same as that of Youzhou, but the merchants are still concentrated in Youzhou, so there are no people in other cities and counties.

The business model of the Youzhou Workshop is to transport the goods produced by caravans to various cities and counties for supply.

If the workshop is placed in the local city and county, the caravan supply model is actually the same, and the local development situation shows that the land lease, labor salary costs are lower, and there are local subsidies.

The advantages are better than those in Youzhou, but many people are still very obsessed with convenience.

When the city guard office held a general meeting, Li De proposed to attach importance to the development of the city and county economy, and directly handed over the matter to Weili to be responsible, and the city guard offices in various places cooperated.

A few days later, the Chamber of Commerce of Weili convened a meeting of businessmen for several days to convey the information on the development of economic construction in various places.

The guards found businessmen who had always worked closely with the castle guard and began to mobilize, and they were all pioneers of development.

Wei Li's method is simple and direct, that is, let them invest in the past, and when they see the benefits, the matter will be done, and they don't need him to be polite to publicize that the businessmen will definitely pass when they see the benefits.

Another is to ask the castle guards of each city and county to make statistics on the situation of local merchants, investment, and other matters, and contact some merchants to ask their opinions and suggestions if they are willing to open workshops.

Many merchants' workshops are small workshops employing a few people, and the workshops in Youzhou are really incomparable, so it is not possible to rely on small workshops to promote development.

You have to open a workshop of a certain size to be competitive, and in order to develop the castle guard, you can try to help some merchants without violating the rules.

After a few months, the effect is very obvious, the businessmen in the small place have improved with the support of the local city guard, there is no project city guard to help you, there is no order city guard to help you.

In this atmosphere, caravans developed in various cities and counties, and the production of goods they produced was very limited, but the number of cities and counties gathered together was quite terrifying.

When the merchants of Youzhou knew that they would get less benefit from the same goods than the source of goods in the city and county, they were already aware of the problem.

The scale of the workshops they opened is very large, and a workshop may have hundreds or thousands of people working in it, and in terms of profit, it is natural that the cities and counties with low input costs will earn more.

Some people can't stop after investing, but some people with strong funds go to the city and county to invest, and the more money they make.

After a period of time, the growth rate of the Youzhou Workshop decreased a lot, and the development of the caravan accelerated, which directly led to the price of the cattle and horse markets in various places starting to rise.

Ningzhou's largest cattle, sheep and horse breeding area, the increase in the number of caravans and the need for horses have put a lot of pressure on Ningzhou's breeding industry.

Breeding is not like production, which can produce as much as you want, reproduction takes time and is not easy to control.

The reserve market for several years is directly face-to-face all over the world, of course, the sales channels are well controlled, and those who are hostile to Youzhou cannot buy a war horse. ninth

Even so, now the demand for horses has increased, and the price has increased, not only the Youzhou forces, but also all the cattle and horse shops in the world have been implicated.

The reason is simple: horses in Youzhou are too expensive, so it is better to buy them from various sources, and the result is that the number of horses is reduced, and the demand cannot be met.

All forces have been affected, especially those who want to form cavalry, so they have to consider the cost.

Li De didn't say anything about the price increase of horses, and he didn't need to say anything, the development of the caravan was inevitable.

The circulation of goods can bring profits, and there is no horse that can be exchanged for a means of transportation, such as the tricycle produced by the blacksmith's workshop.

Tricycles equipped with hollow tires can fully meet the needs of short-distance cargo transportation, and the price is about 1,000 per unit.

The price is a little more expensive, but there is no way to produce the same limited production as horses, so it would be nice to be able to buy the first batch.

The hollow tire production technology has solved the problem of manual production, that is, the steps are complex, and the output is fundamentally incomparable with automation, so the way of personnel and equipment flow is adopted.

Increase production equipment and increase the number of production workers.

Reid spent a lot of money researching bicycles and hollow tires, but he insisted on letting the craftsmen experiment with them.

Because the bicycle will play an important role in history, the light may have room for thousands of years of development.

After the three-wheeled bicycle was launched, few people could use it, but also businessmen were poor in money, not to see the price but to enjoy the lifetime warranty service.

Bicycles are all made of metal, rusty and rotten, as long as they are used, they can last a lifetime, but Li Deken has the confidence to say this.

With the development of industry, the cost of producing bicycles will become lower and lower, and it will cost 1,000 yuan to buy a tricycle now, and the price may only need 500 yuan or less in the next few years.

Lifetime maintenance is not free of money, replacement parts are required to pay extra money, free maintenance is normal bicycle maintenance.

For the sake of bicycles, a new repair shop came into being, called the after-sales industry.

The first batch of bicycles was the Chamber of Commerce responsible for the express delivery business, which was a transportation service established by Li De in the past to deliver hot pot.

They were the prototype of the later caravan development, but they have always been engaged in the business of street delivery, and their main business is still food delivery services.

The catering industry in Youzhou is very developed, and all kinds of delicacies emerge in an endless stream, in fact, many things are limited in this era, but they have all been broken by Li De.

The hot pot business has developed very smoothly in Youzhou, especially the dishes introduced from Europe have added a lot of irresistible ingredients to the hot pot.

One of the most popular is the potato, and there is also a wide flour, which is made from rice, and there is a workshop that specializes in processing wide flour, and the sales performance is very good.

Because horses are not allowed to be ridden in the market, special carriages are allowed, and even so, the couriers do not dare to speed up in order to avoid accidentally hitting people.

Now with a three-wheeled bicycle, it is much more convenient, the volume is not as large as the carriage, it is more flexible, and there is no problem in terms of speed.
