Chapter 314: The terrifying Bianjing City
There were a few dishes on the table and a pot of good wine. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhao Zhen didn't have the heart to eat, he asked Xiao Er to send the wine and food to the private room, he sat opposite Chen Lin and chatted excitedly.
This food delivery guy's idea is really wonderful.
Tens of thousands of people who were laid off from the forbidden army have been in Bianjing for a long time, and they are full of local snakes, which food is delicious, which wine is authentic, and they are clear.
Wang Ningan asked people to choose those who were in better health, had a gentle temper, and could speak well, and after some days of training, they were sprinkled.
The big guy was not used to it at first, and some people even couldn't open their mouths and didn't dare to speak.
Moreover, these soldiers have tattoos on their faces, and many ordinary people are also afraid of them, and the restaurant does not dare to use them.
It was really difficult for Wang Ning'an, but fortunately, two people stood up at this time, one was Di Qing, a popular idol of the Great Song Dynasty who had just been promoted to privy envoy.
As a privy councillor, it was his duty to disarm, and it was his duty to arrange a way out for the brethren.
Di Qing went to many restaurants, negotiated with the big guys and harmony, and called the brothers in the army to let the big guys communicate their feelings, and the dignified privy envoy came forward, everyone was surprised, without exception, all agreed.
The other person is Zhao Zongjing, this guy is really ambitious, he helped Wang Ningan run copper materials before, and this time he is even more familiar with the road, and he has set up with various clan mansions in the capital.
Although each family has a kitchen, they are not good at all dishes, and there are so many servants, sometimes the guests are in a hurry and have no time to cook, so they go to the restaurant to order food and let the food delivery staff deliver it.
I have to say that since the Runan Wangfu family was planted, Zhao Zongjing suddenly became hot, and the big guy found that their family has two kings, which is deeply liked by His Majesty, and he has a God of Wealth buddy, and his friends in the army are also willing to support him.
If Zhao Zhen can't give birth to a son, the throne will inevitably fall into the hands of Zhao Zongjing.
In the name of the future prince, it is not easy to talk about business!
The clan is settled, the noble generals are not a problem, and Lao Bao also helped, among Bianjing, there are the most soldiers in Kaifeng Mansion, and things are also busy, many people don't have time to eat, or they deal with it at street stalls.
Bao Zheng signed a contract and used a 5% discount on the market price to order food from the yamen for a long time.
As soon as this trick came out, the officials of Kaifeng Mansion cried.
Hei Laobao finally knows that he is distressed!
Not only Kaifeng Mansion, but the rest, what Taixue, Guozijian, Hanlin Academy, and Yushitai, have followed suit.
The big guy calculated, outsourcing the food, not only the big guy eats better, but also saves a lot of expenses, the best of both worlds.
It is with these big customers that the efficiency of food delivery has been improved, often in an inn, there are dozens of scholars to order food together, and it is three meals in the morning, noon and evening...... If it weren't for the support of a big customer, it would be impossible to send hundreds of copies!
At first, the food delivery staff could only earn a hard-earned money, 400 wen a day for food delivery, but gradually the situation changed. Not everyone knows which food is good, and it is impossible to see reviews on the Internet like in later generations, so many people ask the delivery person to help arrange it when they can't make up their minds. A lot of the time, it's they who come up with some money and let the delivery person arrange it themselves.
Therefore, the first lesson of the training received by every food delivery worker is to tell them to treat people with sincerity, to consider the people, to earn every copper must be clean, and the food recommended to customers must be of good quality, low price, clean and hygienic.
And from time to time, there will be management personnel to visit the door to check whether the delivery staff is inappropriate.
In addition, all the food delivery staff will be organized to rate the restaurants in the capital, with a total of five stars, and if you can get the star, you can get priority recommendation.
After such a move, the status of the food delivery staff has risen, many people break their heads and want to squeeze in, and some restaurants secretly bribe the food delivery staff to raise their noble hands when they are rated.
For these flies and dogs, Wang Ningan can only ask for strict management, and there is no way to put an end to it, in fact, this is also the real benefit of the food delivery service!
Through tens of thousands of food delivery workers, the entire catering industry in Beijing was controlled, and the power to set standards fell into the hands of Wang Ningan.
Don't underestimate this power, for example, in the past, when evaluating a restaurant, it was often not just about the food and drink, but about the girl.
Which Oiran and which head of the line are in charge, and their value immediately doubles.
To put it bluntly, it's all the set of "color-eating".
When I arrived at Wang Ning'an, it was delicious, safe, and affordable...... These words have become the pursuit of restaurants, and many restaurants that have been suppressed have suddenly shined and become the representatives of food chased by the people.
On the other hand, the painting boat of Fenzi Hutong and Bianhe began to decline.
Wang Ningan is not deliberately making enemies of anyone, the problem is that as the heart of the empire, it is really embarrassing to rely on a group of flowery little women to attract guests and maintain prosperity.
In Wang Ning'an's conception, in addition to politics, the capital should become the center of finance, commerce, and service industries, and of course his service industry is a large service industry......
With the popularity of food delivery staff, many restaurants have found that since they can deliver food in a centralized manner, why can't they purchase food in a centralized manner...... Soon, another industry also prospered, and that was logistics and distribution.
Grain, vegetables, meat, fish and shrimp, chicken and duck...... All of them are centrally procured and then distributed to various restaurants and restaurants.
The catering industry is doing this, and other industries are following suit, such as cloth, tea, porcelain, furniture, pots and pans...... More and more stores are joining it, as long as they negotiate the content of the purchase, there are special personnel responsible for transportation, no need to waste effort at all, can concentrate on business, but also save costs, of course, very satisfied.
Take silk as an example, a silk shop purchases 20 horses of silk and satin, and it is not enough to load a carriage, but it also has to hire a carriage.
There is no doubt that the efficiency has increased considerably.
More than 40,000 people were laid off from Beijing, of which several thousand served as food delivery workers, several thousand drove carriages, and several thousand were responsible for carrying logistics...... It soon became clear that there were not enough personnel, and they had to recruit workers to make up for the gap.
After Zhao Zhen saw it with his own eyes, he couldn't believe it.
"Chen Banban, so it seems that the next disarmament can also be done?"
Chen Lin grinned and smiled helplessly: "It seems to be like this, it's all the work of carrying and delivering, cutting tens of thousands of troops, enriching them, there is no problem at all." Not only can it save military spending, but it can also prosper the market and provide convenience to all parties, and the old slave really can't think of a reason to oppose it! ”
Zhao Zhen sighed very much, "That's right, the military budget has been saved a lot, and the tax has been increased for the imperial court, Wang Qing's ability is indeed good!" ”
After walking outside for most of the day, Zhao Zhen happily returned to the palace, he seemed full of confidence, he mentioned the change in the past, but there were many obstacles, and every step was against the current, not to mention how difficult it was.
But when it came to Wang Ningan, it seemed logical and easy.
Zhao Zhen is a little confused, what kind of ability does Wang Ningan have, and he can do things that others can't do, it's really weird!
In order to solve his doubts, Zhao Zhen called Wang Ningan to the palace the next day and asked him for his opinion.
"Your Majesty, in fact, there is nothing difficult to explain about this matter, the pass just doesn't understand the capital!" Wang Ningan said with a smile.
Zhao Zhen was stunned for a moment, "Wang Qing, tell me about it!" ”
"Yes!"
Wang Ningan was full of confidence and explained to Zhao Zhen...... The capital is very large, not ordinarily large, with a permanent population of more than one million, and almost two million if you count the floating population.
What is this concept? At this time, the most populous city in Europe was only a few tens of thousands of people, and Bianliang was equivalent to 50 Paris, which was even more than the entire population of many countries!
In the face of such a huge metropolis, the traditional scholars are powerless, even if it is the best Han Qi, when it comes to disarmament, he can only think of Tuntian, and he does not understand the concept of these two million people at all, and even in their impressions, they feel that such a large number of people is a burden and a burden, and if there are fewer people, it will be easier to govern. This kind of point of view, which is quite full of feelings of cutting down and adapting to the job, Wang Ningan is powerless to complain.
Do you know what a business opportunity is for so many people? How difficult is it to gather so many people?
Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty also had a population of one million, but in the Tang Dynasty, the city was separated, the opening hours of the market were strictly limited, and there was a curfew at night. Obviously, these measures are all for the convenience of management.
In comparison, Bianliang City is more like a city in later generations, all kinds of restrictions have been broken, and it can grow freely and expand wildly!
In such a big city, it's not just food delivery, all kinds of logistics, freight, housekeeping, sanitation, security, ...... The number of people needed is simply astronomical.
The noble scholars disdained these trivial matters, anyway, they could hire enough domestic servants to serve themselves comfortably, and they never thought about how much hard work it would take for most ordinary citizens to adapt to the rapid life in the capital and take care of their families!
Someone is urgently needed to come out and help them solve their practical difficulties.
After the rise of food delivery people, some people raised questions, since they can deliver food, can they help ordinary people purchase goods; can buy things, can you help clean the house and yard; Some people even hope to help take care of the children, so as not to be abducted by the flowers......
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the next step can be to develop mail, housekeeping, kindergarten and other projects to further resettle people. According to the minister's estimate, the capital alone can consume 200,000 laborers, and if it is estimated in the long run, even if it is 500,000 people, it may not be enough! ”
"And this labor also has to be consumed, and they can give birth to other industries...... For example, the city's sanitation, public security, fire protection, ...... It takes a lot of manpower, which can form a virtuous circle and make Bianjing better and better! ”
"Your Majesty, compared with other cities, Bianjing also has a unique condition, there are hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops here, as well as tens of thousands of officials, and the court's Yulu, at least more than 20 million yuan a year, are issued in the capital, accounting for almost thirty percent of the court's expenses...... Therefore, the capital is the place with the most abundant currency in the world. If you still stay in the self-sufficiency concept of hiring slaves and serving life, so much money will not be effective at all, on the contrary, many people will hoard money and turn it into dead money, which will aggravate the money shortage. ”
"If this money is channeled out and put into the market through various services, it can provide a livelihood for hundreds of thousands of people, drive millions of people to live and work in peace and contentment, and increase the income of tens of millions of yuan in commercial taxes for the imperial court."
Wang Ningan swore that this time he really didn't fool, Bianjing City is so terrifying!
