Chapter 276: Problems on the Road

Well, I'm a little late today, so I'm sorry for everyone

~~

Approaching March, after two months of construction, the deep ditch has been completed in its entirety, which is comparable to a miracle workmanship.

Because the scale of the wall required by the Great Crane was very obscene, the bottom groove had to be quite solid, which was really twenty-one feet wide and nine feet deep. This is not a moat, but the scale of the foundations of the city walls

Funing County has always been over-demonized, so although the attention is very high at these times, it has not been able to really attract people's attention, and perhaps even in the eyes of the Western Xia people, Funing County's self-indulgence is very ridiculous.

The only difference is that the small traders are slowly starting to get a little bit.

In the past, there was nothing to trade in Funing County, and no one dared to come, because after coming, they could only see a group of hungry children with green eyes gathered at the city gate, without exception, whether ancient or modern, such groups would be regarded as pickpockets.

However, now there are more and more workers in Funing County, and they initially have some small money in their hands, and those with low wages can use compressed dry food to make a living, but those technicians with higher wages already have some additional needs.

When there is a demand, there will be the first people to eat crabs, so some small fur vendors, snack vendors, will try to come once or twice.

As a result, as soon as I tried, hey, I wouldn't go back empty-handed every time, I could sell out the materials that didn't sell well elsewhere, and I could leave after paying the full amount of taxes, and I couldn't leave if I didn't have the legend.

The Great Song Dynasty now has no mechanical power, so Funing County especially needs cattle.

So as the news of the big change in Funing County slowly spread, to the north of the Golden Triangle area, there have been a small number of bold herdsmen to try it, when they found that Funing County is very kind, in Yongle City can only be exchanged for five catties of salt for a cow, in Funing County can be exchanged for ten catties of green salt and twenty catties of the miraculous compressed dry food that was rumored, those ignorant herdsmen were simply speechless.

But this transaction is a knife licking blood for these people, and excess profits mean that there is excess risk. There have been several cases of herders who had been killed on the road by their families who were trading in Funing County. Wang Yan personally went to see a crime scene not far from Funing County, his father and mother were killed, and the two cows were missing, leaving a girl smaller than a little bell singing sadly.

Needless to say, these people were executed by the Buddhists in a pagan manner, or by those lawless vested interests in the Three Mountains and Seven Villages. This is Zhanzhao's inference.

However, even if Wang Yan is unrestrained, it is not convenient to break face with those people for the time being, and he can't do this in advance before Funing County improves the defense system. It is also impossible to send troops to investigate the causes of death of those who are not Song people.

Funing County can only temporarily meet the first wave of high-speed development stage in such a taoguang obscurity, and in the ridicule that everyone is not optimistic......

The desk in the back hall of the county yaya was hand-built by Lao Luo's father's land, using the best wood, as well as the old craftsmanship, looking antique.

The table is full of endless documents and plans, and Wang Yan is always busy with these.

Little Bell thinks Wang Yan is a legend. And Da Yan feels that this table is legendary, and in the next few hundred years, this table will become an absolute cultural relic.

The current Funing County started at this table. In the future, after becoming famous, Wang Yan will return to Beijing with this desk, and after paying homage to the prime minister, he will also take this desk to the master of the Zhongshu Sect, and direct the implementation of the war for the rise of the nation on this table.

Until one day in the future, there will always be a certain leader on this commemorative desk to give instructions on the action plans of the Great Song Dynasty Fleet in the Mediterranean, North Sea Fleet, Atlantic Fleet, and Indian Ocean Fleet.

So people will die, and the history books may be technically decorated by Sima Guang, but this table will definitely be legendary.

It's night now, and the little bell is a little sleepy but can't sleep, waiting to wash the little master's feet.

Uncle Geng Tianqi didn't sleep either, and stood beside him full of worry and reported: "My lord, the Northwest United Investment Bank is recruiting more and more workers, and the construction of city walls, coke workshops, cement plants, and smelters are also constantly expanding. These aspects of the cost of wages, plus the 500 yuan remuneration of the coal yard technical team from the capital, now the daily labor expenditure is about 800 yuan, plus a variety of maintenance and miscellaneous expenses, how can the overall expenditure in January be more than 30,000 yuan, in addition to the initial purchase of equipment costs, now the Northwest United Investment Bank book money can support up to August this year, there is a fact that our output has not been really profitable, the United Investment Bank now all the income is our county to purchase cement for the construction of the city wall. ”

Yes, Funing County's revenue and expenditure are as simple as that. Now is the early stage, the price of cement purchased by the county government is not cheap, but the Northwest United Investment Bank is still losing money. This is the reason why Li Shen needs to release water on the coal tax and iron tax.

The only income of the Funing county government is income tax and the residential tax of the United Investment Bank. In addition to using the money to purchase cement, a grain bureau was set up to pay the county's grain subsidies. It has always been like this, with the county government having a preliminary fiscal surplus, while the Northwest United Investment Bank continues to burn money.

In the past two months, the situation has improved a bit, with some foreign transactions and a small amount of commercial tax. In addition, those outsiders who find it novel are also buying compressed dry food that is convenient for traveling.

There is a subsidy for reducing the supply of dry food to the residents of Funing County, so food stamps are needed, and outsiders can buy them, but they can't enjoy the subsidized part, so they have to buy them at full official prices.

That's how it works for now. Everything is based on a few mines owned by the United Investment Bank.

After watching the newspaper sent by Geng Tianqi for a long time, this uncle did not bluff, if the current situation is maintained, it will still be optimistically estimated to support it until August, and even in mid-July, the funds from the imperial court and Ye Qinghua will be exhausted. Funing County's own shrinking cement procurement alone is not enough to feed the United Investment Bank.

There are two ways to do this. One is to save expenses, and the other is to increase income.

Now that the initial form is there, the local workers in Funing County are basically out of the division, that is to say, they can withdraw the labor team sent by the Beijing Coal Yard and save a huge amount of money, and the expenditure of this technical backbone team is 500 per day, which accounts for a considerable proportion.

The bad thing is that after missing this piece, the personnel will be more nervous, which in turn affects the financial revenue of Funing County. Don't look at this group of technical backbones inconspicuous, now all the taxes in Funing County are closely related to them, and the income tax is a large amount, and then these guys are considered rich among the workers, and now those foreign vendors, including some newly opened shops in Funing County, rely on them as a consumption engine.

In addition to these, the return of these people will also make the major shareholder's uncle furious, which is not conducive to future technology resale and equipment procurement.

So the option of saving expenses was crossed out by Wang Yan, relying on the province will never save money, and it must increase income.

Therefore, it is more critical whether Uncle Han Qi purchases coke and cement production lines on behalf of Hedong Transshipment Division.

As long as the production line is sold, it is a weather vane, then it can be regarded as performance, and continue to find Ye Qinghua and the imperial court to allocate funds to come in.

Now it is a multi-line advance, Wang Yan himself is also grabbing food in the tiger's mouth, and there is already a specific plan to write to the capital, asking Zhang Fangping and Ye Qinghua to ask for the equity of the Northwest United Investment Bank. The reason is technology stakes.

Da Yan said, "Master, I contributed the secret recipes of cement and coke", which is not free, and equity is a reward for my R&D and innovation. The two masters didn't know what to do, and they needed to prove that the secret recipe was magical.

To put it bluntly, we still have to see benefits.

So Dayan is now eager to sell several technologies in the hands of the Northwest United Investment Bank to the Beijing Coal Yard, so that not only does it relieve the urgent need of temporary lack of funds, but if profiteers like Uncle Xiao are willing to buy technology, it must be cattle, only in this way will Ye Qinghua and Zhang Fangping they will recognize and agree to the equity proposed by Dayan.

"Don't be in a hurry for the time being, I watch the sky at night, and it will be bright in the long run, and any difficulties will be temporary. I will solve the problem of funding, such as some cash cuts that are now circulating, rumors that workers will be cut off and workers will be cut down, and the work of the propaganda mouth still has a long way to go. Have faith, believe that there are no problems that I can't solve. ”

After getting this answer, Uncle Geng Tianqiu was depressed for a while, it is good to have confidence, but there must be something wrong with the blind radical optimism of the bad boy. It's a pity that he hasn't been defeated until now, and the name of the god is getting louder and louder, which means that he can't be denied more and more.

In this abandoned small county known as hell, Cheng really wants to get out of his ideal scale, and sometimes it feels like a boat on a bitter sea to think about it. However, it was under this child's crazy brain hole one after another that he quickly spread the stalls, and although the current Funing County is still Qiuba, it has really changed a lot.

"Okay, you don't like to hear negative things anyway, but you have to have confidence, money must not be broken, and adults must plan as soon as possible." Geng Tianqiu sighed and left......
