19. Establishment of the company
"Wechen wants to set an example and set up a company." Shang Wen said cautiously.
"This γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»" King Qin considered with a little hesitation.
Shang Wen struck while the iron was hot and said: "If the king wants to enrich the country and strengthen the army, this is the only way. But there are certainly many difficulties before leaving. After Weichen walked out, he wanted to make the eyes of the civil and military officers shine. Being able to see a new way out. Please think twice? β
"Aiqing! What is this, what is this company? "King Qin is obviously a little inclined to his side. That's easy to say.
"A company is like a business name. It can be opened by one person or multiple people. There are many business scopesγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» "Shang Wen hadn't finished speaking, and King Qin had already interrupted
"What do you mean by multiple people? If more than one person opens a share, in this case, everyone contributes funds. In proportion to the shares, a representative is selected to manage the company. If this person is good, he will continue to be good, and if he is bad, he will be removed. All rights are at the general meeting of shareholders, and the representative only has the right to operate. All shareholders only need to pay dividends at the end of the year, if the business is good. There are also dividends. King Qin nodded when he heard this
"I don't have a single official in Daqin who has done business during his tenure, even if he is not an official. There is no business either. This is considered by the widow. But the widow is going to do this groundbreaking thing. The widow is allowed. In addition, the widow contributed 100 catties of gold. Well done. The widow wants to pay dividends at the end of the year! Return to the palace. "King Chen of Qin returned with great joy.
Shang Wen and Meng Tian sent King Qin away. Meng Tian leaned over and said, "The last general doesn't know what Mr. wants to do, but the last general is willing to follow him." A hundred pounds of gold from the king. The last general is willing to contribute. The gentleman said yes. Meng Tian said.
"Meng Tian, you are my savior, don't call Mr. in the future. Just call me Shangwen. Or something else. Besides, if you don't talk about funding, I still want to talk about that. Let's sum up how to do this. Shang Wen pulled Meng Tian into the house.
"Meng Tian, I think this company starts with the most common things we invented, such as pen and paper and lighters. Then, as we upgrade our technology, we get involved in some new areas. What do you think? Shang Wen said.
"It's all up to you." Meng Tian said
"Well, if you don't do that, you go through the relevant procedures first, and rent a shop by the way. I'm going to improve the machine. Bring the subordinates together. What do you think. β
Shang Wen said.
"The last general, Meng Tian will do it." Meng Tian turned to leave.
Shang Wen also began to plan at this time. He is also a tycoon of a weapons company. Now you can only produce a few gadgets, which is really not interesting. The way forward is to cooperate with the Qin army. Just like later generations cooperated with the U.S. military. The benefits are endless. After paying attention, Shang Wen aimed at Daqin's military workshop.
However, there are still some small things to do, which is to modify the steam engine. Carry out a major upgrade. The focus is on tightness and precision of gear connections. Thinking of precision, Shang Wen almost forgot. There is also some lubricating oil extracted from the fierce fire oil. That's a good thing.
Design a few small changes to the parts and give them to the blacksmith to build. Shangwen began to lubricate the gears. Come to the storeroom. That is, the partial room, Shangwen found out the lubricating oil. Prepare to lubricate the steam engine. Meng Tian has returned.
"Sir, it's all done." Meng Tian obviously rushed back.
"Sir, are you going to take a look at the shop, everything is ready-made, I saw a wine shop, and I came over directly. Just a little consolidation is fine. Meng Tian continued.
"That's it, don't be busy today, you can take someone to tidy it up. Sell some pen and paper tomorrow. And then sell lighters. I'm going to make some changes to the machine today. You go ahead and I'll design the drawings. Shang Wen turned around and walked inside.
Meng Tian also knew that Shang Wen was a busy man. When you're busy, you can't catch up with anything. I'm busy with the rest.
Shang Wen returned to the house and first separated the design drawings of the lighter's housing. Then find a few different blacksmith shops to build it. Then, the cotton will be compressed, and the process machinery such as the grinding wheel will be sanded. The rest of the assembly manpower, after all, there are still a lot of people, and there are still many immature places in machine manufacturing.
By the way, you can add another process. Polish, then add a coat of toasted blue. With these looks, you're good to go. First like this, and later after the invention of the stamping machine, several versions were engraved. Stamping it. The appearance must be beautiful. I can't get rich if I don't want to.
There are also papermaking and other processes, and some technologies are appropriate and can be contracted by others, but some core technologies are still processed by themselves. I'm a modern man. A tycoon who works with the military. To be able to cooperate with the military for a long time is to maintain a certain technological advantage. Without this, it is difficult to guarantee. It is time to establish such awareness.
Design drawings and distribute them. Meng Tian also returned. Shang Wen will have a plan in his heart to discuss with Meng Tian. Then Meng Tian went to arrange. Shang Wen went to change the machine.
Shang Wen woke up late the next day. You know, changing the machine is a big deal. Now there is only one person, and there is no group of scientific researchers. It seems that you have to find a reliable person to train some technical backbones. "Shangwen, come on. Shang Wen. The voice was Mengtian.
Meng Tian flew in front of Shang Wen. Panting breathlessly, he said: "It's successful, paper and pen are a big seller." According to your orders, limited quantities, low prices. Soon the supply will be in short supply, and what was made last night will now be sold out quickly. Special, especially γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»" Meng Tian took a big breath, his face filled with joy.
Shang Wen already knew in his heart that he would definitely be able to sell well. What needs to be done now is to develop a new product. Shang Wen thought to himself that this was it.
Meng Tian said: "Now a lighter can buy a gold cake. This is simply sky-high. β
Gow, Shang Wen didn't expect it. A lighter buys a gold cake. What a concept it is. Shang Wen didn't know how many grams of gold a gold cake was. But I didn't expect the price to be so outrageous. Hey. Shang Wen smiled awkwardly. It's unimaginable. The ancients were crazier than the modern ones. Crazy ancients.
"Shangwen, Shangwen". Meng Tian felt that Shang Wen might have been stunned. It may also be that when he is overjoyed, he keeps shaking Shangwen's arm.
Shang Wen also felt that his arm hurt. I was relieved. Asked, "How many lighters are there now?" β
"Eighty were made last night, and by the time I came, more than fifty had been sold. Later, I don't know, I let Meng Zhi take care of the point. Meng Tian said.
"Sir, sir". As he spoke, a loud voice reached Shang Wen's ears from far and near.
