Chapter 100: Childish Disagreement (I)

The allure of the cement plant is not so great, and it is completely inferior to the silver mirror technology that can only be realized in a decade. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

It takes some time for any new technology to emerge and be recognized.

Chen Jian has a hunch that with the advancement of agricultural technology and the rapid development of handicrafts, cities need to accommodate more working people, and the urban population will continue to increase in the next ten years.

Attics, red-brick buildings, these were reserved for the hired workers and craftsmen in the city, and the real rich did not bother to live in small buildings. Today's building technology determines the cramped and inconvenient space of the building, and the toilet and drinking water need to be thrown out manually or resisted, and the rich people who live in this thing.

But in terms of the increasing number of employed workers and craftsmen, the market is still vast.

It's just that the businessmen present are not too optimistic about it now, but they are not completely disdainful, and it can only be said that they have not met that expectation.

Chen Jian is a buy one get one free, even if he knows that the application of cement will be more and more in the next few years, he does not want to be in full control.

One is for quick realization, and the other is that the more people who master this kind of infrastructure technology, the better, and the more they master, the more they can play their due role and trigger the acceptance of the entire ethnic group. It's not good to have something hidden and tucked away.

Of course, it also has a lot to do with the fact that his hand can't stretch so long and needs more people to stand with him.

The businessmen present were very interested in the gifts thrown by Chen Jian, and the silver mirror is a money-making industry, even if it is ten years, they can afford to wait.

It is nothing more than collateral for borrowing money as usury, recovering the principal after ten years, and the remaining profits for decades and future generations are interest.

In this way, the sales division of some remote counties is no longer a chicken rib, even if there is not much cement there, but ten years later there is a silver mirror market that has been opened.

This time, the merchants also thought clearly, and those who had more money were naturally preparing to take over the markets of the capital and several coastal counties, and those with less money were to lend out some usury for ten years to occupy those remote counties.

As long as Huaxia is still a unified market, as long as there is no split, it will still be able to earn a long-term income in ten years.

Speculators with spare money are waiting for the opportunity to auction off a large amount of state-owned wasteland, but now it seems that this opportunity is still a decade or more, and it is better to speculate on it for a long time, even if they do not need it in the future, they can sell it to others.

With a plan in his heart, he wrote down the price he could accept, and Chen Jian was also smiling when he got it, basically meeting his expectations.

In return for the bargain, Jian Chen began to cut the number of silver mirrors produced eight years later, reducing the delivery and sales in the remaining counties to ensure that these people could benefit immediately by the tenth year.

As for those next door who need to sell crucible steel, it's much simpler.

Crucible steel has many uses, but it is expensive, so it is generally used in tools, cutters, drill cutters, turning knives and the like.

The quality is better than the quality of steel circulating in the market, and the price is relatively cheap compared to the same quality.

However, these industries have their own guilds, which can be negotiated internally to determine the amount of crucible steel to be purchased, and then redistribute it from within.

Chen Jian also said that he would not get involved in the various workshops that exist today, but only sell raw materials. And because of the existence of the guild system, the various walks of life were independent of each other, and there was no complete coal, iron, steel, and forged and finely processed complexes, so the enemies of crucible steel were only those who originally produced steel by other methods.

Use the knives to get the attention and fear of these workshop guilds, then tell them that they don't produce to meet their initial expectations, and the rest will be easy to talk about.

The Workshop Guild needed Jian Chen's help to monopolize the crucible ingots to ensure that the rest of the non-guild members could not get good raw materials. Jian Chen also needs to have a good relationship with these guilds, and he doesn't want to make too many enemies, and some places also need the help of these local guilds.

The two sides hit it off, intrigued, set the price and the approximate annual supply volume, and paid a deposit.

On the other side, the negotiations with Hulin have also ended.

Plate glass is sold by local merchants in the capital, and the merchants are only responsible for making the difference, and the price can be a little higher in the short term.

The rest of the glass lamps, decorations, and utensils are sold on a commission basis, and the trading company will also open a branch in the capital, so you can shop on weekdays.

I don't want to eat too much to attract hatred, and giving up some of my benefits to get more locals involved, which can be regarded as a kind of self-protection.

Coupled with the impressive publicity a few days ago, the market can be regarded as basically open.

After sending these people away, Jian Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed his face that was a little hot after drinking, and found some cold water to wash it.

Hu Lin walked into Chen Jian's room and saw that the bill was on the table, without pressing a paperweight or a horizontal pen, which meant that he could read it at will.

Glancing at the numbers on it, he couldn't help but scream, and walked out and said, "Brother Chen, have you made a fortune?" Counting the money in your hands now, you can also rank in Mincheng, right? ”

Jian Chen patted his face and said with a wry smile: "I have overdrawn my earnings after ten years, and I have withdrawn it at one time." These are just cash, when it comes to real estate, real estate and the like, what am I in Mincheng? People have a large estate with tens of thousands of acres of land, but I don't have it. Even if I could live another fifty years, the proceeds from selling mirrors for the next forty years alone would be more than that. ”

Hu Lin vaguely felt that something was wrong, and asked, "Are you in a hurry to do something?" You've been 50 years too long. ”

"There's a lot to do, and you're here watching me and making me fulfill my promises. If you want to keep your promises, you have to start from scratch. Children's education, future pensions, disability allowances, new machines, and all kinds of situations after the emergence of new machines have to be considered one by one. What do you think is more? I don't think that's enough. Now you know why you asked me to borrow 10,000 silver coins in a few years, right? Brother Zhu, 10,000 silver coins, you can't do anything. ”

Hu Lin was a little stunned, and said with a shy: "Brother Chen doesn't have to squeeze me." At that time, all I wanted was that the country was small and the people were widowed, self-contained, and self-sufficient. Farming and weaving education, food, clothing, housing and transportation, everyone contributes, regardless of the things outside the city. Now it seems that at that time, after all, I was still young and thought too little. ”

"It's not that you think too little, it's that your ideas are still very tempting to many people. But there's no temptation for people like me. Whether it can be successful or not, let's say that I am as self-sufficient as you think, who will sell my workshop products to? What to do with the iron in the town of your dreams? Nowadays, those large water-powered iron workshops can produce thousands of catties of iron a day, how much can each person in your small city produce in a day? ”

The two men sat down on the stone bench next to them as they spoke.

"Brother Zhu, I still say that, what is progress? What a person can create in a day, more than a person created before, is progress. As for saying that the rich get richer and the poor get poorer, that can be done again. You can't say that in order to prevent this, go back to a time when one person produces less than what is produced in a day now. ”

Hu Lin nodded and asked, "I remembered what you said when the more than ninety people quit our Mo Party before I came to the capital. You said that our purpose is to make a person create more things every day than before, and that we should represent the most progressive productivity. ”

Jian Chen smiled: "That's right, who do you say is the productive force of progress?" ”

Hu Lin shook his head, and Chen Jian pointed to himself and said, "I, too, there are those big farmers who occupy hundreds of acres of land, and those who use hydraulic machinery. We are the productive forces of progress. Don't believe me, let me ask you, compared with a person who is busy with dozens of acres of land for a year, those large farmers who own thousands of acres of land, do the employees who work there create more value every year than a small yeoman farmer? For example, those hydraulic workshops, are they more valuable than those manual individuals? Since there are many of them, they are advanced. ”

Hu Lin nodded and said: "I agree with this, but I still don't understand what you said about protecting their interests, isn't this contrary to our purpose?" What we said was to make life better for more people, but as you said, there are only a few such people. ”

"How can it be the other way around? How is this maintenance maintained? Take the big farmers, I want to defend them, but I don't mean that I don't pay taxes to maintain them. For example, now they don't pay their taxes, and they all go to hired hands and small homesteaders, I ask you, is this maintenance? I don't think so, it's not just a maintenance, it's a scourge. ”

Hu Lin frowned, and Jian Chen explained: "You think, the poorer they are, they still have to pay taxes, and the richer the richer they don't have to pay taxes, so what if the people below can't survive?" I had to pick up the gun and do it. After you're done? It must be that the field should be divided equally, and after the end of the field, everyone will be divided into a small piece, and the problem will not come? Isn't that a step back? So who do you blame for this? Of course, the big farmer is to blame for his own death. ”

Hu Lin laughed for a while and said, "Joke is joke, according to what you say, you should form a party with those people." ”

"That's right. I opened my mouth to say for a long time, it is better for the middle and lower classes to stand up and show their strength. I pointed to a wall and said, "Don't dig it, or you'll be stoned to death." But I am not God, who will believe? It's better to click this wall down for a while, smash a few, and ponder the rest, only to find out that this stupid-looking wall can really kill people, which is much more useful than what I told them for a long time. ”

"Again, take this wall, do they know who to smash now? I don't think they're going to smash the people who dig the walls, but they think it's the hoes, shovels, and other tools that are hurting me. That being the case, I have to smash those tools and hate those tools, not people. ”

"Everyone is still young and needs to keep learning. Our party is actually a cram school, and there are all kinds of people. In 20 or even 30 years, it is not about doing great things, but about learning how to engage in partisanship, how to make compromises, how to regress and how to strive for it. It's better to part ways in the future than three or five people getting together now and talking nonsense, and they don't even have their own programs, demands, and theories, right? ”

"Brother Zhu, the future of Mincheng is a training ground. All kinds of propositions will appear there, the more the truth is argued, the clearer it becomes, the more sophisticated the means, and even the future will be a big fight, a barricade, a black flag strike, a smashing machine, and a shocking ...... It's good to get used to it. You have to remember that it is not because of the emergence of the Mexican Party that there are contradictions, on the contrary, the Mexican Party understands that it wants to fight for its own interests before there is a disagreement in the interests of all parties. In the future, the family will be separated, but everyone is mature, and neither side will be too naΓ―ve. ”
