Chapter 139: White Wolf with Empty Gloves
Whoever makes the idea will work, this seems to have become a law, of course, except for the monarch himself, Liu Yi also liked to do this when he was in Mocheng before, but unfortunately, there was no one around him who could give him ideas at that time, and when he encountered problems, he was more hands-on.
I didn't expect to vote for others now, and I have to be forced to do the work by myself with ideas, and who to reason with
Liu Bei is playing the technique of throwing his hands to a level, and he is not worried about people turning against water, besides, what kind of water can be turned against when he is a post house
Let's do it
Since you follow the boss, then don't take yourself as a wrist, don't be lazy in the work you should do, you have to show your value before others can use you, and you have to have the attitude you should have, so that you can go far.
Next, Liu Yi asked the people here to continue to build ships, and then went to the workshop to pick a few craftsmen out and found a few relatively smooth places to build a post house, and built a kettle.
As for the chef, Liu Yi ordered someone to find Liu Bei to ask for someone, he was not interested in even doing the cook's affairs together, and the speed was also very fast, the post house did not need to be too luxurious, it was aimed at ordinary people, not so much exquisite, and the wooden structure of the house might take a few days for others, but for Liu Yi, it was a matter of one day.
On the first day, the post house was built, the second day was lit and the stove was opened, and the third day was put into operation, he didn't care about making money, whether Liu Bei had this intention or not, he still went directly to explain to Liu Bei that he was not good at operation, and asked Liu Bei to send a special person to manage, in short, it was to send a person to collect money.
A total of eight post houses were built, and the food provided was also different, some were mainly porridge, and some were mainly pastries, soups, etc., anyway, each had its own characteristics, and the summer mouth was not big, and Liu Yi didn't know what people's consumption level was, so at the beginning, the target group was these craftsmen, who were too tall and high-minded, and people didn't want to eat them.
Then there is the question of how to let the workers have time to consume, this Liu Yi can decide by himself, end the project early every day, let the craftsmen move freely, do not force to eat in the camp, and can take turns to rest for one day every five days, Liu Yi also recruited a hundred craftsmen here, some are single, willing to go out and go around, but there are also some who are rushing to make money, two meals a day, all of which are solved in the barracks, after all, it is free, and you don't eat for nothing.
In this way, in less than three days, the money in the account can basically make up for some gaps, and even drive some people in Xiakou to start consuming, which is a good sign, not to mention completely solving Liu Bei's economic pressure, but at least it can be alleviated.
However, the population of Xiakou is not much, and the money that can be given internally is counted after all, Liu Yi suggested that through Liu Qi's relationship, open a chain restaurant in various cities in Jiangxia, of course, the name will definitely not be so advanced, the consumption level of the people in those counties is definitely not comparable to Xiakou, and there are more scholars, Liu Yi in the way of long-term employment, let people go to various counties to build post houses, and can also design some restaurants specially for those wealthy people to consume, the environment should be more elegant, and people have a high-end feeling.
In addition, there is another advantage, that is, to be able to use these places to help Liu Bei expand people's livelihood and attract some displaced people to come, after all, in a place like Xiakou, there are not too many soldiers that can be provided to Liu Bei, and I heard that there are no soldiers to recruit in the past few days.
The return of money must be slow, and it may not even be possible to return a large amount of money after the battle of Chibi, and it is expected that the real return of money may be in the spring of next year, but the investment, that's it.
"Bo Yuan, in this way, not only do we have no money now, but we have to pay for it." Liu Bei looked at Liu Yi's grand plan and frowned.
"Uncle Huang, we definitely can't take out so much money, but we can ask Gongzi Qi for it." Liu Yi looked at Liu Beidao.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to borrow it." Liu Bei smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"I can't borrow it, but I can ask for it." Liu Yi spread out a roll of bamboo slips in front of Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei.
"Yes" Zhang Fei raised his eyebrows and said: "Bo Yuan, you can't borrow it, you can come if you want him"
"We can make money together." Liu Yi gradually sketched and said: "To build a post house, the ordinary one is about 2,000 yuan, the high-end one costs about 4,000 yuan, and the ordinary one with Qi Gongzi costs 50,000 yuan, and the high-end one costs 150,000 to 200,000 yuan, we contribute people and efforts, plus 10,000, Qi Gongzi will pay 40,000, high-end I will pay 50,000, and Qi Gongzi will pay 100,000 yuan, and the money will be divided equally in the future, and it can also be exempted from taxes." ”
"Where did we get the money?" Zhang Fei couldn't get around.
"I don't need to go out in the first place." Liu Yi glanced at him angrily and said, "In this way, we can not only build these with the help of Gongzi Qi, but also get a large amount of money to recruit troops and horses, and even more so to beat the reputation of the imperial uncle." ”
An ordinary post house aside from the cost of net income of more than 30,000, a high-end can earn more than 90,000, open a few more, not only do they not have to spend a money, but also a large amount of input, before starting to make money, there are enough to solve the urgent need, and then, if fast, in the early spring, you can start to collect money, the capital chain is just connected.
"This matter still needs to be discussed with the emperor in person." Liu Yi looked at Liu Bei and said with a smile, this matter, his level is not enough, and it is not convincing to run, it is more appropriate for Liu Bei to go, of course, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, the old ministers around Liu Bei, are also okay, then they have to fool around.
"You're lying!" Zhang Fei finally cleared his thoughts, looked at Liu Yi and said disgustedly.
"It can't be called cheating, it's called investment, we invest in strategies, and there are manpower and material resources, Qi Gongzi invests money, and everyone makes money together when the time comes, how can it be called cheating" Liu Yi looked at Zhang Fei angrily and said: "Why don't you think of a way to get more money for our army." ”
"I ......" Zhang Fei glanced at Liu Yi depressedly, what way can he take people to rob the house Although he is depressed at the moment, but this kind of price drop, Lao Zhang can't do it, he can rob a county seat, the question is where is the county town for him to rob now, Jiangdong is an ally for future cooperation, Liu Qi is the current ally, and he has to rely on others to eat, as for Cao Cao, Liu Bei is now eager to minimize his sense of existence, let Cao Cao not look at himself, and Zhuge Liang also said that Cao Cao is now invincible, At this time, I ran to tease, what is it that is not looking for death?
Liu Bei ignored Zhang Fei, and after careful study, he determined some details with Liu Yi, and left Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to stay in Xiakou, and personally took Zhao Yun and his personal guards to Xiling to discuss the matter with Liu Qi.
In this era of war, the princes all hope that they will have more soldiers and more food, although the plan proposed by Liu Yi is not a small investment, but with the support of the official behind it, it is still very interesting, not to mention that Liu Bei personally came to discuss, Liu Qi naturally agreed.
However, what shocked Liu Yi was that Liu Bei suddenly took five million money from Liu Qi, this amount, according to the current expenses, let alone the beginning of spring, save a little to use it for the autumn harvest.
In fact, Liu Yi also put forward an idea to pull investment to deal with emergencies, but he didn't expect Liu Bei to be able to do so well, for himself, even if he has the same identity, status and reputation as Liu Bei, I'm afraid he can't do it so well, and sure enough, people who can start from scratch have relatively strong abilities in this regard.
With money, the rest of the things are not a problem, Liu Bei continued to recruit troops, Liu Yi continued to run at both ends of the workshop and the cabin, the new warship can basically be built in two days, but the training operation takes time, Liu Bei's task to Liu Yi is to have 100 such warships, and the training of troops is in charge of Chen Lai, another general under Liu Bei.
"Bo Yuan, you said that we have this warship, won't the navy be invincible on the river in the future" Looking at the eight warships on the river, Zhang Fei said with some arrogance.
"Not necessarily." Liu Yi recorded the performance and data of the warship, and said without looking back: "You know the commander of the navy."
"It's not much different from the infantry cavalry," Zhang Fei said with some uncertainty.
"Then if you are allowed to go out with these warships, you don't know if people will come back, but the ships will definitely not come back." Liu Yi shook his head and smiled.
"Drink" Zhang Fei heard this, and glared at him: "Do you know that a certain army can still advance and retreat freely before taking the general's first rank and a million troops?"
"How brave the general is, there is no need to say, but the general can't even see the difference between the cavalry and the sailors, how to win, although Yi doesn't know the art of war, but he also knows that he knows himself and the enemy, and he will not be defeated in a hundred battles, on the battlefield, it is changing rapidly, and the courage of a man is not enough to succeed, the general doesn't even understand the difference between the navy and the infantry, don't say that Jiangdong is already good at water warfare, I'm afraid it is the Jingxiang Navy, if you really meet the general on the water, the general can only look at the river and sigh." Liu Yi closed the bamboo paper, and when Liu Bei stabilized in the future, he would definitely promote the paper books, which was too troublesome to use.
"Then you say, how should this naval army be commanded!" Zhang Fei was a little unconvinced.
"How do I know" Liu Yi glanced at Zhang Fei suspiciously: "The general is sure that it is appropriate to talk to me as a craftsman about this"
Zhang Fei: "......"
"That craftsman just said casually, Bo Yuan, aren't you the heir of the Mo family" In his heart, he secretly slandered Liu Yi carefully, he remembered a sentence from the beginning to now, you see that Zhuge Liang is not as stingy as you.
Of course, the two are now familiar with each other, and it is not easy for Zhang Fei to say these words directly.
"The Mo family doesn't know everything, there is a specialization in the art industry, you have to find someone who knows how to lead sailors and ask, this big ship has benefits, but the flexibility is not as good as a small boat, I just don't know how to fight a water fight, but I also know how to use a small boat to approach quickly, and then board the boat to fight or chisel through the bottom of the boat, it is not difficult to break this big ship." Liu Yi put the bamboo paper into his sleeve, turned around and left.
Bullshit craftsman, who craftsman will understand this, Lao Tzu believes in your evil!
Looking at Liu Yi's back, Zhang Fei silently followed behind him, Zhang Fei is willing to make friends with capable people, when he found that Liu Yi not only has the ability to make people have strange craftsman abilities, but also has some opinions on the art of war, strategy and even internal affairs, his attitude towards Liu Yi is much stronger than in the past, these days he almost turned to Liu Yi's side as soon as he was free, and the relationship gradually eased, after all, Lu Bu has been dead for so many years, Zhang Fei feels that he doesn't need to worry about a little girl as a big man, Besides, although Na Lu Bu hated it, his daughter's attitude towards him back then was quite good.
Sometimes, people will selectively forget some things, but these insignificant things that are chosen to forget will be remembered at some specific times, Zhang Fei is obviously such a pragmatic person, looking at Liu Yi's eyes, even with it, his attitude towards Lu Lingqi has also changed.
