Chapter 115: Investigation Focus
On the one hand, Baozhou has a relatively large market, with more than 5,000 garrisons in Baozhou, plus the Xiang army and some miscellaneous brands, it can even reach 7,000 people, these people and their families, etc., there are almost more than 30,000 people, all of whom are outsiders, and they themselves have a largest market. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The prosperity of Baozhou, relying on a large number of garrisons, is the high cost of the garrison, so that Baozhou is more vigorous in all aspects, from all aspects of clothing, food, housing and transportation, the invention and creation of the traverser, is suitable for such a situation.
It seems that it is inevitable to embark on this road, Zhao Xin smiled bitterly, after he lit up the card system, he naturally has the advantage of climbing the science and technology line to manufacture people's livelihood items, with dilute sulfuric acid and concentrated sulfuric acid, especially concentrated sulfuric acid, the cornerstone of the chemical industry, using chemical methods to manufacture various products, it is no longer a possibility, but an inevitability.
After arriving in Miaojiazhuang, Zhao Xin did not start the people's livelihood manufacturing as soon as possible, because there was no pressure on the money, and he harvested a lot of money from the canal, including thousands of pieces carried by the water bandits, as well as thousands of pieces of war horse sales, in their hands, they had a huge amount of money close to 10,000 yuan, and they didn't need to worry about the funds for the time being.
At the same time, Zhao Xin is also for the sake of stability, the promotion of Mien, the truth of fighting Mi Qiu, he still understands, just arrived in Miaojiazhuang, has not yet established his prestige, he took the initiative to give grace, these villagers will be very grateful at that time, just like the current large number of purchased cattle, but one after another grace, these people may be regarded as a habit, once no longer gracious, it is easy to have the opposite effect, is not conducive to Zhao Xin's next development.
At this time and then, when I knew that the Baozhou Mutiny and the other party was ready to lift the table, I had to do it, not to mention intelligence gathering, making those treasures of the traverser is a very practical product in itself, used as a formal means of espionage, so that it is very concealed and can make money.
It solves the problem of reconnaissance, but also solves the problem of money, the expansion of the longbow team and the construction of the castle, which requires a huge amount of money, and the espionage intelligence needs manpower, and the method of making money with the help of knowledge beyond the times must be implemented, so the sequelae of it will not be taken care of for the time being.
If the Yunyi Army marches forward, and even the existence of Miaojiazhuang does not exist, it becomes a problem, and it is not a joke, it is not a joke, what is the matter, wait until you get through this difficulty, if there is really a problem, it is a big deal to give up this foundation and start anew, and it is not that you don't have the capital to start over.
The way to make money, as early as when I left Nanle, I began to think about it, to be honest, what can be made in large quantities is nothing more than some simple things, and the use of chemistry is also the beginning of high school, chemical reaction, that is, to turn decay into a magical tool, in ancient times it was called alchemy or alchemy, but those who really understand chemistry know that this is a normal chemical reaction, and it is the inevitable result between substances.
Chemistry at the beginning of high school, to put it bluntly, has violent reaction effects, such as sound and light, or precipitation, ionic chemistry and polymer chemistry are not in high school chemistry, most of the substances can be found directly in nature, which is also one of Zhao Xin's foundations.
Zhao Xin thought of several means, are related to the ordinary people's livelihood of the basic goods, is usually any traverser after the necessary treasures, only these, can be sold enough, the most profitable is not the highest profit, but does not seem to be a high profit, in the face of amazing sales, converge sand into a tower, to Zhao Xin to bring extremely rich returns.
With Zhao Xin's ability now, it is not enough to make a beautiful handicraft, such as glass or mirrors, even if it is made, it is very profitable, and it is not suitable for Zhao Xin.
Take a large dressing mirror as an example, you can shine the whole person into it, or the slightest moment will appear, the final price of a piece may be as high as 500, and in some big cities, the price will be higher.
These things are priceless treasures, depending on the person you like, to what extent, the competition between some rich people, with the wealth of the Great Song Dynasty, it may not be impossible to spend a lot of money.
Luxury goods are very profitable, a thing that may only cost one or two times, can be increased by 250 times, or even thousands of times, and those who can afford it are a few, and such things cannot meet buyers all at once, and if they don't meet them, how long will it take to sell them.
Taking 500 guan as an example, 500,000 yuan was sold, how could it be more for Zhao Xin's huge future expenditure, Zhao Xin's need to find a product that is broad and daily consumption, so that it can flow for a long time.
Such a product looks inconspicuous, a person earns 1 penny, as long as it is consumed every day, it may be a Baozhou, ten days, it will earn enough 500 yuan, and it will not be eye-catching.
Inconspicuous is the biggest advantage, luxury is naturally the opposite of inconspicuous, a priceless treasure, up to 500 yuan, not to mention that people can afford to buy, just say that this price will attract the attention of countless people, for luxury goods, only enough publicity, to be able to sell higher prices.
Zhao Xin can't be high-profile, his high-profile is not much different from looking for death, it's just a glass mirror, the other party may not be able to influence him to sell the glass mirror, knowing Zhao Xin's means, how can he not do it, as long as it affects some people, it is easy to make things unsold, or unable to sell at the expected high price.
High-priced products, can be afforded, in the Great Song Dynasty only the least part of the people, either big businessmen, or big families, the latter is good to say, may not buy the account of the mastermind behind the scenes, but the former, without the presence of the mastermind behind the scenes, the Wang family repairs a book, repairs a book to all the merchants who can afford to buy, even if it is not much with the Wang family, will not buy.
Who would offend the prestigious Wang family because of this trivial matter, not to mention that this is not a necessity, to put it bluntly, it is just a rare plaything, with capital that can be used as a show-off, there is nothing if there is nothing.
The commodities at the bottom, the commodities for the whole people, the profitability will not be low there, the quantity is a key, the salt tax of the Great Song Dynasty accounts for almost a quarter of the entire government revenue, the reason is very simple, this is an alternative poll tax, everyone has to eat.
Zhao Xin will not touch salt, but in addition to salt, commodities covering a wider area are not nothing, these commodities are also inconspicuous, like a longbow, quietly entering the city, and those who shoot don't want to shoot, even if they are staring at Zhao Xin, they can't find out at the first time that the goods sold by the general public on the streets and alleys may be ordinary commodities for a few cents or dozens of cents, which are from Miaojiazhuang and Zhao Xin.
Furthermore, as long as this thing is convenient and useful, and the price is not expensive, it is almost impossible to ban it, as long as it has a market and efficacy, and the people are willing to buy it, it cannot be banned, unless it is done by the official.
This is Baozhou, it is Renzong's territory, if you want to influence the big people who can come out of 500 guan, you can say a few hellos, but for tens of thousands of people, from the level of the government, directly issue a ban and ban the sale of this product.
The mastermind behind the scenes can even do this, so there is no need for the Baozhou mutiny, the civil and military collude, think of a reason, the army enters and captures, and then pushes it to the bandits, under the premise of strict blocking up and down, there is no worry about being discovered at all, why use such a move as rebellion, the price paid is greater, and it is not easy to keep secret.
Manpower and investigation are not problems, but Zhao Xin lacks professionals in his hands, not people like Sun Ji, who have special features in terms of force, but real intelligence professionals.
Choosing the second way, starting from the market economy, is the easiest, but also the most difficult, because in the market, maybe one or two sentences are intelligence, that is, the key point, from this massive amount of information, arrange and combine, find out the right information, which is a very high requirement for an intelligence officer.
For example, in the era of thermal weapons, the mobilization of war was large, the cost was greater, and the output and transformation of some heavy industries directly represented the course of war, which was unavoidable.
Zhao Xin didn't have these people at hand, Sun Ji and the others were masters, but they were not intelligence analysts, and even the entire Northern Song Dynasty did not have experts in similar areas, if there were, there was no need to send the Imperial City Division to venture into other countries, enter the central level, and conduct espionage, which was not only more risky, but also prone to problems.
Using the general law, investigate some mobilization situations, even if it is the Western Xia and the Liao State, they are all nomadic people, and the mobilization speed is very fast, but it also takes half a month, or even a month of early mobilization period, not to say that the fight is fought, and even further, it is found that the Liao State or the Western Xia, because of some disasters, or some waste, is no longer enough to support the food of the entire people, and it is also one of the most important signs of the outbreak of war, so it will be faster.
I can't Zhao Xin take action in person, after the big bang of the consulting era, Zhao Xin has a very high amount of information, and naturally has such sensitivity, but his work is more and more important, it would be good if he found the commonality, no, there is a commonality, thinking of this, Zhao Xin has never thought about the problem, suddenly brightened, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
