Chapter 913: The eldest grandson is here
The eldest grandson Wuji has not been idle in the past few days, and has already sent someone to the city to investigate the cost of joining, and the price given now is the normal franchise fee.
"Will General Changsun be able to accept it?" Tong Fu asked.
It doesn't matter if you don't accept it, the price won't change anyway, and now it's whether the other party likes to buy it or not.
"Can I produce the equipment after it is shipped back?" Eldest Sun Wuji asked.
"Yes, you can arrange for someone to go to the workshop in Youzhou for short-term training beforehand, and it is expected that you can master all the production techniques in three days."
"The equipment is all complete, and as long as it is shipped back, it can start production, and there is no need to install and change."
The eldest grandson Wuji has a bottom in his heart, and he can use it when he takes it back, and it will definitely be a great achievement after he gets it back.
"Okay, then let's sign the deal."
"Okay, does General Changsun need a set of production equipment?" Tong Fu suddenly asked.
"How about the yield of one set?" The eldest grandson Wuji almost forgot about it.
"A set of equipment starts all day, and the output is about 3,000 yuan." Tong Fudao.
The eldest grandson counted in his heart, it was enough to be able to produce so much in one day, and in his opinion, it was enough to produce more than a few days in a short time, and it was useless to buy a few more sets of equipment in his opinion.
In the next few days, Zhang Sun Wuji sent his cronies to learn production technology, and the party mastered it and returned with the production line.
Li Shimin was a little surprised that the eldest grandson Wuji could complete the task so smoothly, and asked himself if he would never sell it, but the eldest grandson Wuji really succeeded.
"Mowgli has worked hard all the way, tell me how you gained from this trip?"
Li Shimin already knew that the eldest grandson Wuji had succeeded, and he had to ask what was going on.
The eldest grandson Wuji told the story, and Li Dedu thought that he had heard it wrong, so he bought the equipment so easily.
A few days later, the eldest grandson Wuji had already begun to process compressed biscuits, and Li Shimin personally tasted them and decided that the taste was acceptable, and it would not be a problem for the soldiers to eat them for a long time.
The only drawback is that it is too dry in taste and needs to be eaten with water.
After a while, you can feel the feeling of fullness, and according to the effect and what is written in the advertisement, it is exactly true.
"Great, having compressed dry food will save a lot of time, Mowgli, I will ask for credit for you in front of my father, take advantage of this time to produce more."
Li Shimin didn't forget to instruct in the end, he knew very well that after he reported this matter, someone from the imperial court might come to take over the workshop.
There is nothing in Chang'an City that Li Yuan doesn't know, and the newly built workshop of the eldest grandson Wuji is to test whether it can really process compressed biscuits, and after success, Li Shimin immediately entered the palace to face the saint.
At this time, it is the time to invite credit, and there is nothing to be embarrassed about.
"Father, Wuji bought compressed biscuits from Youzhou and now they can be processed, and the sons have already tested that there is no problem."
"Haha, well, in that case, I will ask the military department to take it out."
It has been determined that this workshop will be used to serve the Li family's soldiers and horses in the future, and it is reasonable to ask the military department to pay for it.
A few days later, Li Yuan personally went to the workshop to inspect it, and saw with his own eyes the production process of compressed biscuits, and his heart was shocked.
Many people have seen the automatic pressing molding for the first time, and others will not think so in front of Li De's seemingly simple equipment.
"It's all made of iron, and it takes a lot of iron ore to make something like this." Li Yuan sighed.
Apparently his focus seems somewhat unique.
Where can sell for more money is iron and technology, and no one came out to correct it at this time, Li Shimin didn't pay attention to this matter after completing the task, not that he didn't pay attention to it, but he really couldn't do anything.
It is better to spend so much time on what is good for him.
Li Yuan has been in the workshop for a long time, and he is still very interested in new things, although he does not understand technology, but he also sees problems in it.
"Compressed biscuits are good, but they consume too much food, do you ministers have a good solution to the food reserves?"
Li Yuan handed over the problem to the ministers.
Food is the top priority, and the royal family's money is not inexhaustible, and in the final analysis, there must be a way to deal with it.
The ministers then became troubled, there is not much uncultivated land near Chang'an, and even if it is all reclaimed, it will not solve the problem of food shortage in Chang'an.
"Grain from the south is transported to Chang'an through Cao, and if we want to solve the grain problem, we need to widen the waterway."
"Your Majesty's widening of the waterways involves the territorial boundaries of various forces, if it is implemented, it may be hindered by the strength of all parties, and the purchase of grain still needs to be purchased from the big grain merchants in the south."
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that compared to the southern route, he can purchase grain from Youzhou."
"Youzhou is a hostile force, how can you give money to the enemy."
"Why not, if you can buy food, you can also weaken the other party's reserves, and besides, Youzhou's food reserves are enough, otherwise they won't sell it to the outside world, and if they don't buy it, they won't become stronger."
The courtiers in the court quarreled after a few words, and many people were trying to figure out how to solve the food problem.
"Okay, there's no need to quarrel, as long as you can buy food."
Li Yuan didn't care if he bought grain from Youzhou, anyway, as long as he could solve the grain reserves, his plan was to wait until he occupied more forces, and he would have land to cultivate, and when the time came, he would be able to solve the problem of vigorously cultivating the land and grain.
His idea is actually that the place he occupies must be vast and sparsely populated, and he cultivates fields like Chang'an and Luoyang, which are not far away at all.
"Then send someone to Youzhou to purchase food, which of you is willing to visit."
Li Yuan became serious, he didn't need money to buy food, and the money he had accumulated was spent a little less.
It will take at least a year to earn it back from taxes, and it is not enough to say whether it is enough.
The ministers didn't move, so they moved their eyes to Li Shimin.
"Shimin will leave this matter to you." Li Yuan said.
"Yes."
Li Shimin agreed, so he said this to the eldest grandson Wuji again.
"Wuji brought all the money from the sale of timber reserves, and hired caravans to bring timber with them to use as money to purchase food."
The eldest grandson Wuji immediately began to gather up, the imperial court had enough money for the grain needed to be transported by his caravan, and the money for the freight was earned, and of course he couldn't forget to purchase grain for the King of Qin.
In the past, this was the purpose of transporting timber, and the caravans were full of goods and were earned without going empty.
The eldest grandson Wuji, who had just returned from Youzhou not long ago, went to Youzhou again.
The people in Youzhou City heard that the eldest grandson Wuji was here again, and they were all curious about whether they wanted to purchase more processing equipment this time.
The eldest grandson Wuji didn't know that he had become a business customer in Youzhou, and they all wanted to see how much benefit they could squeeze out of him.
