For these rumors, Li Xiaojiu laughed after hearing it, he didn't believe in any gods who fancied Anhe's nonsense, if there were really gods who took a fancy to him, but recently Anhe has indeed been angry, and the literary talent he showed was shocking, not to mention, and offered cement, a strange thing that benefits the country and the people, and also helped himself set a strategy to destroy Liao, he still admires Anhe very much. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

After going around the East Market for a while, Li Xiaojiu and the others went to Anhe's Cement Supervision Institute again. Now that the sign of the Superintendent has been hung up, there are two officials standing at the door, and they look very good.

Li Xiaojiu's guards went up and flashed the sign of the guards, but the officials did not dare to stop them, and immediately let them go. But before they could go in, they saw a few servants hurrying out of it, as if they were still holding something in their arms. Li Xiaojiu and the others didn't care, and walked straight to the office hall inside.

"An Zhonglang general, for every ton of cement produced, the merchant has to pay a patent fee of 20 yuan, is this too little, according to this calculation, we don't seem to be able to collect much money a year?"

Before Li Xiaojiu could enter, he heard a young voice inside asking loudly.

"Hehe, Yifu, you still underestimate the output of cement, the country is about to overhaul the cement road, this needs cement is not a little bit, according to my estimates, at least millions of tons per year, and after the people see the various effects of cement, it will definitely attract a lot of people to use, they are the big users of cement, there is no output of millions of tons, can not meet the needs of the whole country, so calculated, a year to collect 100,000 yuan of patent fees, or more than enough."

An He said in a slow tone, his voice looking very tired.

"But this is only when the market reaches its maximum, and the demand for the first few years will certainly not reach a few million tons, so we will not be able to reach the minimum cost promised to His Majesty in the first few years."

The young voice spoke again.

Li Xiaojiu's face was stunned when he heard this, which reminded him that in order to take charge of cement affairs, An He had promised him that he would pay at least 100,000 yuan a year and listen to the content of their conversation. This fee seems to come from the 'patent fee'. It's just that what Li Xiaojiu doesn't understand is, what is that 'ton', it sounds like it's used to calculate cement production?

"It doesn't matter, there are so many craftsmen under the Overseer's Yard. In addition to some of the improvements that can be used to study cement, most of the others can also be used to produce cement, and the profits from the sale of these cement can be used to make up for the lack of royalties, and perhaps there will be a surplus. ”

An He seemed full of confidence, and it seemed that he had really put a lot of effort into this.

"Hmm. In this way, it is also possible. ”

The young voice groaned for a moment, and then said again, as if with a wry smile,

"General An Zhonglang's plan has been sorted out, and it is indeed feasible in theory, but for the 'cement industry association', the lower officials are still a little worried, after all, no one has ever done this since ancient times."

"Hahaha~, it's good that no one has done it. We just want to create a new model, so that everyone follows the model of Anhe, no matter what kind of industry in the future, we must copy the operation mode of the cement industry association, this is a good opportunity to leave a name for the ages, and it is also a good opportunity for your Yifu brother to get ahead. ”

In the office hall, An He was half-lying on a chair with two dark circles under his eyes, and said to Li Yifu excitedly.

In the past few days, he has to organize craftsmen to build roads, and he has to write the regulations of the cement industry association, and he has to work overtime at night when he is busy. I finally got the charter done.

In fact, Anhe's idea of cement operation is very simple, that is, to imitate the patent model of later generations, and the cement supervision institute will provide technology to attract those powerful people from all over the country to invest in the construction of factories. Then, for every ton of cement they produce, Anhe has to collect 20 wen as a royalty.

Anhe represents the most powerful imperial power in feudal society, so he is not afraid of others defaulting on his debts at all. As for the cement industry association, it is a semi-official organization that manages all cement manufacturers, mainly to coordinate and deal with the difficulties and problems encountered by various cement manufacturers, and also holds a manufacturers' meeting in the association every year. Agree on the price of cement in each place for the next year, after all, the labor and prices are different in each place, and it is impossible to set a unified price, unless all the factories are placed in the same area, but this is obviously not realistic.

Today, An He called Li Yifu to explain to him, after all, he will definitely not be able to be busy alone with such a big matter, and it is a bit of a waste to have such a good helper as Li Yifu. But Li Yifu, as a traditional scholar, couldn't adapt to Anhe's advanced ideas for a while, which made Anhe spend a lot of words. “

But...... Xia Guan really didn't have much confidence. ”

Li Yifu is still obviously lacking in confidence, after this period of getting along, An He's temper has been touched through by him, knowing that this An Zhonglang will always be informal, and he can usually gain his favor by being casual in front of him, so Li Yifu slowly took a lot less care. He really didn't have confidence in this matter today, so he hesitated again and again, but he didn't have to worry that An He would be blamed for it.

"Okay, the matter is settled, you will be the vice president of the Cement Industry Association in the future, and the notice Anhe has been posted, maybe someone will come to inquire tomorrow, you should prepare well."

Seeing that Li Yifu was still hesitating, An He simply pressed it down directly, and made a decision for him with a wave of his hand.

"The eldest husband should have the courage to 'dare to be the first in the world', but my mother-in-law and mother are not my generation?"

An He then encouraged. Li Yifu slandered in his heart:

You are the boss who said it is light, but it is us petty officials who do the specific work!

"Good! What a 'dare to be the first in the world'! Hahaha~"

At this moment, Li Xiaojiu, who had been listening outside for a long time, praised loudly, if he hadn't heard it with his own ears, he really couldn't believe that An He had such courage.

"See Your Majesty!"

An He didn't expect Li Xiaojiu to come, so he hurriedly bowed down to give a salute, although Li Yifu had never seen Li Xiaojiu, he reacted very quickly and followed An He to salute together.

"Hehe, get up!"

Li Xiaojiu strode to the middle of the hall and sat down with a smile.

"An Aiqing, I didn't expect you to move so fast, that 'cement industry association' is about to start recruiting?" "Yes, Your Majesty, the notice An He has already been posted by someone just now, and it is estimated that someone will come to consult this afternoon."

An He said very confidently, he not only asked people to post notices, but also sent letters to the houses of some acquaintances, explaining in detail the prospects of cement, under the temptation of such great interests, An He was not afraid that they would not be moved.

"Your Majesty, what's going on with that cement industry association, the old minister is really confused?"

Zhang Xingcheng asked with a puzzled expression.

"Oh, it's up to An Aiqing to talk about this." (To be continued.) )
