The royal family's industry is not limited to the Daming Royal Rixing Bank, after discussing the issue of the Daming Dragon Coin, the bank's affairs are over, and under Zhu Cijiong's instructions, Xu Erjue began to report on the performance of the Daming Royal Xinglong Firm.

Xu Erjue unhurriedly flipped through the account book, turned to the last page, and then read aloud: "Daming Royal Xinglong Firm, since its establishment last year, has received a total of 1,562 branches of the original Daming Xinglong Firm in Daming and Dongying, North Korea and other subject countries, and 26 new branches in Nanyang Luzon, Xingcheng Port and Goa, Ceylon and other places in South Asia, and a new branch in Spain in continental Europe, with a total of 1,589 semicolons. In addition, last year, it also received 36 Huangzhuang in Beizhili and other places, and 325 new Huangzhuang in the northwest, now a total of 361 Huangzhuang, with a total of more than 35,000 employees, and last year made a total profit of about 55 million taels of silver through various branch numbers and Huangzhuang. “

As soon as he finished reading, Zhu Youzhen, Zheng Chenggong and Sun Zhixin couldn't help but gasp, they were not frightened by the profits of the Ming Royal Xinglong Firm, but by the number of semicolons and imperial villages under their subordinates, this scale is really a bit scary.

Luo Yangxing didn't have a surprised expression, these semicolons were almost all built under his hands, when the Daming Royal Xinglong firm was divided at the beginning, the Daming Royal Rixing Bank mainly got the inventory of gold, silver and silver ticket business, and the Daming Royal Xinglong business mainly got the semicolons and goods from all over the country, so it is not surprising that there can be so many semicolons.

Zhu Cijiong was also very calm, he occasionally saw the introduction of the Dutch East India Company on the Internet in his previous life, the Dutch East India Company had thousands of branches around the world in its heyday, with more than 100,000 employees, and a total asset valuation of more than 7 trillion US dollars.

After listening to the report, he smiled and encouraged: "Well, you did a good job, do you have any ideas for the development of the next project?" “

When Xu Erjue heard this, he closed the account book and thought about it: "Weichen feels that the business of this business mainly depends on quantity, that is to say, the more semicolons are built, the more profits will be, but now the semicolons of the Ming Royal Xinglong business have almost spread all over the Ming Dynasty and the prefectures and counties of Dongying, North Korea and other dependent countries, even if the new provinces such as Rinan, Jiaozhi, Siam, and Donghu and the semicolons of the state capitals and counties of the subject countries are all built, there are only more than 2,000 semicolons, and it is difficult to make a big increase in profits. Weichen wants to expand the semicolon to the township below, but the number of semicolons is too terrifying, I'm afraid it won't be managed. “

Speaking of this, Xu Erjue looked embarrassed, and he didn't know how to go on.

This question is indeed a difficult problem for Xu Erjue or others here, but it is a very simple matter for Zhu Cijiong, he nodded and said approvingly: "Well, your idea is very good, the Ming Royal Xinglong Firm sells all the things that the people need daily, and the profit is definitely not high, only by relying on quantity, it is right to expand to the bottom." As for this management, since it can't be managed, then leave it to someone else. “

When Xu Erjue heard this, his face changed, and he reminded carefully: "Your Majesty, please forgive Weichen for his courage, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to hand this over to someone else, people have selfish desires." “

He didn't dare to say it too carefully, lest the emperor get angry, and then he would mock the emperor for not understanding the world, and mocking the emperor, that would be a bully!

Zhu Cijiong thought about this, he patiently explained: "I mean that the branch of the Daming Royal Xinglong Firm is only built to the county level, as for the townships below, you can find local prestige or ideas to cooperate, the Ming Royal Xinglong Firm only provides goods and guidance, the shops are built at their own expense, and the personnel are hired at their own expense, and the payment must be settled in cash, in fact, it is to sell things to them, and then let them sell them themselves, but the price should be appropriately lowered to make them profitable." “

When Xu Erjue heard this, he suddenly realized, this is equivalent to mass sale, although the profit is a little lower, but it can't stand a lot of it, how many townships are in a county, so that the sales of the Ming Royal Xinglong business can at least double!

Zhu Cijiong saw that Xu Erjue had understood what he meant, and immediately signaled Sun Zhixin to report on the performance of Daming Royal Machinery Group.

Seeing the emperor's urging expression, Sun Zhixin immediately opened the account book and read aloud: "Daming Royal Machinery Group, since its establishment last year, has received two iron casting factories of the Ministry of Industry, one machinery factory, one cement factory, 38 new branches in Daming and Dongying, North Korea and other dependent countries, and 6 new branches in Nanyang Luzon, Xingcheng Port and Goa, Ceylon and other places in South Asia, and a new branch in Spain in Europe, now a total of 45 semicolons, a total of more than 60,000 employees, and a total profit of about 20 million taels of silver last year. “

Zhu Cijiong is not dissatisfied with this performance, because Daming Royal Machinery Group was only established last year, and cement, steel, machinery and equipment are all new things, there were no such things to sell before, and the business is naturally not so fast.

In order to save time, he directly instructed: "Well, yes, the things produced by Daming Royal Machinery Group are new things that many people have never heard of, and it is already very good to have such a performance, and your focus in the future should be to promote, so that more people know what cement, steel and even various machinery and equipment are used for, only if everyone understands the role of these things, they will want to use, and when they use it, they will understand that these are actually good things, so that sales will slowly come up." “

Sun Zhixin heard this, nodded thoughtfully, according to his previous understanding, Daming Royal Machinery Group should also learn from Daming Royal Nikko Bank and Daming Royal Xinglong Firm, build branches everywhere, now he understands, this idea is wrong, people don't know what these things are for, what is the use of building more semicolons, you must first let people understand the use of these things, this business can develop, as for the construction of semicolons, it is all a matter of the future.

Speaking of this, Zhu Cijiong suddenly remembered what he said about road construction in the early dynasty, and he continued to guide him as an example: "I have issued an order in the early court today, so that all places can start to build roads, this is a good opportunity to promote, you can send people to the political envoys and state capitals to introduce the performance of cement and steel, and strive to let them use cement and steel when building bridges and paving roads, even the earth dragon, you can also take them to see, if the road construction in various places uses the earth dragon, then I don't know how many times faster." However, don't sell them to the dragon, such a big thing, the price must not be low, and the operation, repair, and maintenance need professionals, they buy this thing is not cost-effective at all, you can rent it to them, calculate it by the day, how much money you charge a day. “

Daming Royal Machinery Group can already be classified into the category of later generations of industry, in the Ming Dynasty at this time really no one knows how to develop industry, Zhu Cijiong a little bit of a few words can let them benefit infinitely, with these foundations, Daming industry is destined to walk in the forefront of the world.
