The gathering of wealthy businessmen from all over the world has also made this auction the focus of attention, whether it is identity or status, these people are quite high, and they can't be neglected.

At the request of Zhao Xin, Wang Song's work was done in advance, mainly in terms of classification.

The auction will hold up to 2,000 people, but it can't hold 2,500 people, and if you add some family guards and the like, it's not a problem.

These Great Song Dynasty have a high status, and there are also a few figures among the wealthy merchants, of course, they cannot be gathered together casually.

In fact, when a large amount of capital has gathered, there are still many wealthy businessmen, and Zhao Xin has begun to notice.

I thought that there would not be so many people, and I prepared an auction hall for 2,000 people, but now that the number of people has increased, we can't put everyone together.

Wang Song has a headache, there are so many people, who will quit, it is easy to come to the Daimyo's Mansion, he must want to participate in this auction, it is not convenient for anyone to withdraw, if he really wants to squeeze together, then it will be a big trouble.

Soon, without waiting for Wang Song to come up with a solution, Zhao Xin solved the problem.

He didn't plan to make much money at this auction, but just used it as an opportunity to recruit sellers.

He believes that only a small percentage of the 1,200 merchants want to participate in the auction, and the rest, most of them are for the goods.

Zhao Xin asked Wang Song to conduct a thorough investigation, mainly to investigate where these people came from.

Because the money is deposited in the bank, it is rare to carry a large amount of money and travel long distances, in this case, when you find these banks, you will roughly know where these people came from.

Zhao Xin This is also a simple survey, after all, the future dealers are to be sliced, from soap, to steamed buns, to ironware, the regionality is very strong, these are unique businesses, there is no competition, only to separate the personnel, is the best choice.

Soon, some of the general origins appeared, Zhao Xin had already expected, relatively concentrated, for example, the capital, at least about 200 people, the local fifty or sixty people in the Daimyo Mansion, and the rich land in the south of the Yangtze River, there are also a lot, these constitute the vast majority of the personnel.

Sighing, I still take it for granted, with each place, an average of 8-10 dealers, respectively, if you act as agents for different products, I am afraid that you can only select about 400 people from the middle, and there are 800 businessmen, either choose some other blank places, or you can only go home empty-handed.

In fact, the many water systems connected by the canal are also the most developed areas in the entire Northern Song Dynasty, and it is of course very suitable to do business in these areas, but if you change to other areas, it will be different, and you may be able to make money, but the proportion must be different.

Zhao Xin just hesitated slightly, with more than 400 powerful dealers, it is already good, these people, if they eat the funds they carry, it is 40 million yuan, which can already make them full, there is no need to eat them all.

A simple scheme was specified, a deposit was paid to all, and a method of visiting and selecting a dealer was proposed.

Based on the 40 most important cities in the Northern Song Dynasty at present, according to the size of the city, the iron ware is selected ranging from 3 to 10 people, soap and steamed buns, with a maximum of 3 and a minimum of 1 in each city.

In this way, in the end, here in Zhao Xin, there will be 320 dealers, in principle, those who are not authorized can get shares and resources from the hands of these dealers, and the Daimyofu will not care.

There are about 160 places for blacksmiths, and about 80 for soap and steamed buns.

At the same time, the way to compete, based on funds, how many products you order, and ensure that the annual sales reach a certain amount, you can become an agent, and pay a deposit ranging from 2000 to 5000.

These are unprecedented in this era, and Zhao Xin also referred to the margin system of those production and marketing products in later generations, which will absorb terrible funds.

The quota of 320 dealers, these alone, may absorb nearly one million yuan of security funds, and set the construction cost of the first batch of the navy, so effortlessly.

Such a novel, even completely different method of attracting investment, immediately caused a sensation, which not only made businessmen talk a lot, but also put forward different opinions.

Some businesses, in many cities, have stores, can compete for more than one place.

After Zhao Xin thought about it, he felt that it didn't matter, as a producer, he hoped that the strength of the personnel would be greater, and if he had the ability, it was okay to compete for a few more, but the premise was that the margin needed to be doubled.

Jia Deyong has never shown his head, and since he came to the Daimyo's Mansion, he has always lived in seclusion, but through all aspects, he inquired about everything in the Daimyo's blacksmith workshop.

Jia Deyong believes that opportunities are for those who are prepared, and in order for him to be recognized, he must first know more than others.

One built a blacksmith workshop in the midst of poverty and whiteness, and it actually set off such a big storm, and some ordinary blacksmiths in the forging division ran to the workshop, and suddenly turned decay into magic.

Back then, when I contacted the iron, a blacksmith shop with a blacksmith could make dozens of catties of iron a day, which was already very good, and this was still under the premise of some helpers and apprentices.

Now, a blacksmith group, seven or eight people together, can actually produce more than 3,000 catties a day, a hundred times the difference, so that he is a little dumbfounded, with such production efficiency, no wonder the price of blacksmiths is very low, although labor is not the most important cost, but it is also one of them.

Before, he also doubted that the Daimyo Blacksmith Workshop would be able to produce so much, and now this efficiency must be no problem, he is more concerned about those products, whether they are of good quality, and the price of the problem.

No, when the blacksmith workshop invited everyone to visit, the opportunity came, and the first one to sign up.

In addition to people with a heart like Jia Deyong, more than half of the merchants who came to the Daimyo's Mansion were interested in the iron business.

The Daimyo Blacksmith Workshop, which replaced the original bulk iron material, became the only supplier of iron material in the Northern Song Dynasty, which caused a lot of turmoil in the court, and even had an impact on some blacksmith shops, these merchants are well-informed, and did not come to purchase before, because they did not know that there were civilian products, and now, the workshop took the initiative to put forward the request, and they were also considering whether to invest.

However, the workshop has slightly higher requirements for dealers, 2000-5000, for big businessmen, it is nothing, but to give it in vain, then there are some problems, they are proficient in arithmetic, a little calculation, you know, this margin number, this is also the root cause of hesitation.

Regardless of hesitation or not, whether you have the mentality of wanting or not, it is not bad to look at these products, these products are not as good as you imagined!

A merchant is with a large number of entourage, almost a team of seven or eight people, even under the premise of compressing as much as possible, there are at least 5 people, a total of 800 merchants, who chose to visit, even if it is a blacksmith workshop, it cannot support the participation of so many people.

Fortunately, it can be divided into batches, and some large merchants who are rich in money and may be involved in the blacksmith business have a higher priority, among them, Jia Deyong is also among them.

To be honest, Wang Song was in the midst of an in-depth investigation before he learned that Jia Deyong was also here.

Jia Deyong lived in a simple house, but he did not hide his identity, in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, he did not have this need.

The son of a privy envoy, how much advertising effect will this bring, although it is said that in terms of iron, it is a direct contradiction with Jia Chaochang, but a large number of blacksmith shops controlled by Jia Deyong can provide them with craftsmen, and can be turned into sales channels, which is a natural sale.

For the factory, production is the focus, and if there is no enough mass production of products, there is no possibility of sales, but without sales support, the things produced by the factory cannot be sold, which is not a good thing.

Among the many big businessmen in the first batch, Jia Deyong is not the richest, his capital is only 200,000, which is 2 times more than the average amount Under the premise that the first batch is four or five hundred thousand at every turn, it is not so obvious, but the identity and channels still make him squeeze into the first batch of personnel.

These are the most likely to become sellers, and they also have enough money to order enough things, and these are the most important.

Although the road from the Daimyo's Mansion to the Blacksmith's Workshop had not yet been fully completed, the construction was completed 10 miles from each end of the Daimyo's Mansion and the Blacksmith's Workshop, and the carriage could move at a faster speed, but they still took a boat, or a fast boat, and arrived in an hour or two.

The scale of the blacksmith workshop, first of all, amazed all the visitors, the first batch, there were less than 80 places, including the attaché, there were only more than 400 people, they stood on the ship, you can see the huge scale of the blacksmith workshop.

There are about 3,000 blacksmith platforms, and now they have been built with simple sheds to help shelter from the wind and rain, and the rising black smoke is spectacular, and there is a little pungent smell in the air.

This is the inevitable result of industrialization, and now Zhao Xin has not even made production, let alone the management of the environment, but he has paid attention to it as much as possible.

Jia Deyong finally saw the blacksmith workshop, he was so emotional, he didn't even let go of any step, if he could really see it thoroughly, maybe he could steal something, really make something in the blacksmith workshop, his blacksmith shop, is not useless.

They are all big merchants, after the boat, after dining in a special restaurant, the visit is arranged to the afternoon, and the unique buffet and a variety of iron tableware, also let them open their eyes, after affirming that these are products, a person does not even care about eating, carefully observe these plates.
