In the evening, Zhao Cheng was in the official room, planning to go home for dinner after handling the last official business.

Lao Chen Tou hurriedly walked in with Chen Xiaohu, and patted a table with an agreement, "Five million catties, according to your price, the old man will order these numbers first." But it must be exclusive. ”

Zhao Cheng was thundered, it turned out that Lao Chen Tou also said like this, the opening was five million catties of cement, it seemed that he had a big plan, not just to repair things by himself.

This is like a kind of gambling agreement, this is more than 2,000 tons of cement, with the current small-scale strange and clever small fire factory, the maximum daily output is probably more than three tons per day.

In other words, Lao Chen, a profiteer, was deliberate, and calculated that Zhao Cheng would not sell the secret recipe, so the output must be limited, which is equivalent to his monopoly on cement in two or three years.

This old guy really doesn't need Zhao Cheng to teach him how to do business.

After looking at him a few times in confusion, Zhao Cheng carefully studied the agreement he provided.

Chen Xiaohu said on his behalf, "We have always been innocent in doing business, but we must strictly abide by the agreement, and the priest should know about it." ”

Seeing that Zhao Cheng never spoke, and then looked at the agreement, Chen Xiaohu said quite excitedly: "Can it be done?" You have to know that such an expensive thing, except for my Chen family, who is willing to buy so much at one time, no one will do this. ”

To a certain extent, he has some truth in selling cement, which is a large amount of materials that are needed at this price, which is already a terrible profit. After all, rice is only six or seven pounds a pound.

Originally, the initial plan was to use this price to keep civilians out of the door as much as possible, and sell it as a luxury item to people like Zhu Zhushu who are willing to use golden silk nanmu as beams and pillars to repair the house, and then use this part of the profits to feed back the cement industry, and complete the start of the industry relatively quickly.

Now Lao Chen is also gambling, he wants to use this thing to build his Chen family's own livelihood project first, although it is expensive, but he also ordered a super large amount, like he has a way to operate the cement better, to be the next level of dealer, and use the money earned to feed his own farmland water conservancy project.

Well, assuming he wants to, the same is for sale, but the significance of using these cements for water conservancy is certainly more important than building houses. This can be thought of with your toes. And although Lao Chen is a profiteer, he is relatively well-established and reputable, and he is also familiar with cooperation.

"Lao Chen, such an agreement is basically fine. But if you have such a big appetite, like you are betting against me and want to monopolize my production capacity, then for the sake of people's livelihood, I ask for a clause to be added to it, that is: the exclusive supply you request until the completion of the contract is no problem, but your cement cannot be completely used for speculation and sale, at least two layers must be used for the construction of agricultural water conservancy facilities, including but not limited to pond channels, etc. ”

Zhao Cheng decisively mentioned this request again.

Chen Xiaohu looked at Lao Chen with some concern. Lao Chen thought that this would indeed cause his own project to be too extravagant and too costly, but the benefits were also obvious, he could completely reserve water sources before other landlords, increase his own agricultural risk resistance, and greatly improve planting efficiency.

These aspects will have an opportunity of about two to three years compared with other farms, which is not of much use to ordinary people, but for a big man like Lao Chen Tou, whose field scale is in tens of thousands, the value-added brought by this part is not a small benefit.

In the end, Lao Chen nodded slightly.

So Chen Xiaohu agreed: "Okay, add this clause, let's decide." ”

Zhao Cheng was also not in the ink, and after adding the terms, he signed the contract.

And the "government-run cement supply and marketing cooperative" envisioned by Pei Zhi County can be a step back. Now we exclusively supply the old with the high-quality cement provided by the system factory. Through hard work and trial and error, we will organize the primary cement production process under the conditions of the Great Song Dynasty as soon as possible.

Hmph, at that time, I didn't need to produce cement, I directly sold factories and processes, for example, if Lao Chen liked it, he said, "Lao Chen made money, I will help you build a cement production line".

In the final analysis, the first thing is to work hard, and the second is to develop obscenely, and it is the top of the food chain that sells standards and technologies.

Thinking of this, he saw that Lao Chen still stayed after signing the agreement.

Lao Chen, who rarely spoke, looked extremely strange, "How did you learn about this method?" ”

"It's taboo to spy on other people's secret recipes, I thought you knew about it." Zhao Cheng said with a smile.

Lao Chen shook his head and said, "No, the old man is sure that it is not a secret recipe, otherwise he will definitely hear something similar in the future." Should it be your newly discovered brain hole? ”

Zhao Cheng said: "This is also normal, speaking of which, I really have a lot of such things in the Great Song Dynasty, and there has never been a shortage of prodigies, scholars, I have been a prodigy since I was a child, don't you know?" ”

Lao Chen continued to stubbornly shake his head, "No, no, the old man has known you for a long time, you used to be almost mentally retarded, and you are definitely not a prodigy." ”

"You don't understand, I'm a late bloomer and a fool. Such as Sima Guang, a pseudo-prodigy who grows more and more stupid, I also have a lot of Da Song. Zhao Cheng said.

Chen Xiaohu was a little frightened, feeling that it was dangerous to be with a scholar, Sima Guang was a former prime minister after all, so it was not good to comment like this.

Of course, it is safe for readers to say this kind of thing, especially now that Cai Jing is in power, it is the default political correctness to criticize the Yuanyou Party. A while ago, Lao Cai was really fierce, and the Yuanyou Party who was masturbated in the second year of Chongning died and came back to life, and even Emperor Zhezong's Empress Yuanyou (Empress Meng) was abolished by Lao Cai together.

Cai Jing during this period is basically open, of course, it is also the peak of his life, in the future, limited to age and ability, and limited to the environment of the Song Dynasty makes him not ruthless enough, he will gradually set the sunset, those eunuchs and bureaucrats who he personally raised, will gradually transition to the point where they can wrestle with him.

In short, Zhao Cheng, the turtle son, praised and belittled the former prime minister when he opened his mouth and closed his mouth, and the old Chen uncle and nephew felt that it was very dangerous, and no matter how curious they were, they didn't stay here to talk to him. This Nima ...... He is a talented man from a famous school under the protection of Zhang Ji, the great Wenzong, but the old men are mud legs.

"Farewell."

Old Chen's uncle and nephew fled......
