After Shi Bufan discussed with this Yan Liben about the cooperation in the establishment of a civil engineering siege contracting company, they could be regarded as reaching a preliminary foundation for cooperation economically. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Although it is only economic cooperation at present, economic cooperation can often lead to political cooperation, which will be of great help to Shi Bufan in the future to leave a way back in the battle for Li Shimin's heirs, accumulate higher strength, and obtain a more stable position. Once Shi Bufan and the Yan family are completely mixed together economically, it is almost no different from being mixed together politically.

However, Shi Bufan thinks that this is not too much insurance, and he still wants to pull the Wang family into the water, which is the Taiyuan Wang family. Now no one knows that the woman of the Taiyuan royal family will become Li Zhi's princess in the future, so when she prepares now, no one expected that Shi Bufan was preparing for this aspect.

"Wang Shizhong, are you okay this time?" Shi Bufan asked.

Wang Jue took the initiative to say to Shi Bufan: "Shi Caochang, please sit down, speaking of which, I, the position of the servant, still owe you so much favor!" ”

Wang Jue's words are not bad at all, if? Shi Bufan took the initiative to let Gao Huitong persuade Lu Shilian to take the initiative to leave, so it is still a question whether he can get his position in the middle of the service so smoothly. Although Shi Bufan just followed the trend, then this favor still has to be recognized, and he has to pay back a little.

"Wang Jue, today I recommended Wang Xuance as the Honglu Temple, you see ......"

Wang Qi immediately said unhappily: "Are you here to invite merit?" ”

"No, I actually just hope to release some goodwill with the Wang family today and prepare for the next cooperation!" Shi Bufan said.

"Oh? What can we work with, we don't seem to have any friendship before? Wang Qi asked.

Shi Bufan replied: "It doesn't matter if you don't have a relationship before, as long as you have common interests." ”

"What do we have in common?" Wang Qi asked again.

Shi Bufan replied: "Shitan, I want to develop the coal business with the Wang family." As far as I know, the hedong area is very rich in carboniferous resources, and many of them are directly exposed to the surface, so why can't we use such carboniferous resources? I plan to work with the Wang family to mine this carbon. I contributed the technology, and the Wang family contributed manpower in the local area, and then each invested a part of the capital to cooperate in the formation of a coal mining company to do this coal business together? ”

Wang Qi asked strangely: "What is the use of charcoal?" ”

The so-called coal, which is the ancient name for coal. Coal really began to be used on a large scale, in fact, it was only after the invention of the steam engine that it was used as an energy source on a large scale. As for the status of coal before this, it was actually very embarrassing, and it seems that it is not the first choice to say that it can be used as an energy source. Because a lot of coal is buried underground, and it is more difficult to mine, and coal resources are relatively concentrated, far less convenient than firewood. In ancient times, there were trees everywhere, and unlike the protected forests of later generations, which were returned to forests, in ancient times, they wished they could cut down more trees and open up more wasteland! Therefore, for the people to collect firewood, the government will not be stupid to stop it.

As for the mining of coal, it seems that there is no other use than as fuel. But fuel is more convenient than firewood, and it's really not necessary!

"Wang Jue, in fact, it is very easy, we only need to process the charcoal with a certain standard language. The powder of coal is made into a briquette or honeycomb coal, which is processed according to a certain standard, and sold to the people as fuel for daily cooking, heating, etc. And this briquette honeycomb coal is easy to clean, not as complicated as wood. Even after burning late, there is a pile of scum left, and the weight is not light, and it will not be blown by the wind and dust everywhere. ”

"Of course, from now on, there will be no smoke in the kitchen."

In ancient times, the so-called "smoke from cooking" was so-called "smoke in the kitchen", and even Shi Bufan, a liberal arts student, understood that it was actually a collection of fine particles, in a trendy phrase, PM2.5. Using firewood as fuel produces a very light residue that is easily blown away by the wind. On the contrary, the coal produced mainly carbon dioxide, which is harmless to the human body and relatively less harmful to the environment.

Of course, this coal is better than firewood, and in the future, gas will also be better than coal, and this is constantly improving. Shi Bufan will not refuse to promote this clean energy, at least it is a cleaner energy source than firewood.

"Wang Shizhong, you said that you can promote this coal to the whole country, how huge is the benefit?" Shi Bufan asked.

"No, no, will the people buy it? We make and process this charcoal, but we ask for money, are the people willing to give up free chopping wood to buy this charcoal? You know, chopping wood is free, and this charcoal costs money! Wang Qi asked.

Shi Bufan sneered and said, "Wang Shizhong, it seems that you haven't really come into contact with ordinary people, and you take it for granted that if you ask for money, you must be free and expensive?" So you think that people would rather cut free firewood by themselves than buy coal that costs money, right? ”

"What do you think?" Wang Qi asked unexpectedly.

Shi Bufan began to calculate an economic account for Wang Jue, but in fact, this economic account is very simple and not difficult. In fact, many later generations of urban people also take it for granted that rural people want to have tap water, because tap water requires money, and they don't need money to carry water by themselves.

In fact, this is only the surface, in fact, the poorer the place, the greater the help of running water for the local area. Some people need to spend half a day carrying water, and if we follow the low calculation method in later generations, the annual income of each household is 6,000. That's an average of more than a dozen dollars a day. If you delay for half a day to carry water, it means that at least eight pieces are lost.

However, whether a ton of tap water will not exceed four or five yuan, a ton of water is generally not a problem for half a month. Once you go to carry water by yourself, even if it is calculated according to the low income of sixteen yuan a day, it will be a loss of more than 100 yuan in half a month. Instead, tap water is used, but it costs a few dollars, so whether it is a loss or a profit, simple data can be calculated. The poorer the place, the stronger the idea of water and electricity.

Time is money, and saving time is also saving money. What's more, if you carry water, the physical strength spent is also a problem, so the damage will be greater.

Therefore, Wang Jue's belief that the people will not buy coal that costs money is actually a result of taking it for granted. Wang Jue probably didn't really understand the "economic account" of the lives of the people at the bottom, so he took it for granted that it was not worth spending money, and that cutting firewood by himself was free, so the people didn't go back to buy it.

In fact, the poorer the place, the greater the thirst for the convenience and convenience of daily necessities, because they can earn more money by saving time, and the money they earn far more from the time they save is far more than they pay for these things. As for the thinking that carrying water is free and tap water costs money, this is just an ungrounded idea, and the people will also have an economic account in their hearts.

"And such a thing?" Wang Qi really felt surprised.

Wang Jue really didn't expect that there would be such an economic account among the people at the bottom, if so, then I'm afraid what Shi Bufan said is really so, this coal has a big market! If coal replaces the traditional manual cutting of firewood, then the benefits are very huge.

Hedong, that is, the Shanxi area in later generations, has a lot of coal, which is also very familiar to Wang Jue, who was born in the Taiyuan royal family. According to Shi Bufan, this coal market is actually very large, and it is not as ordinary people think, and people are reluctant to spend money to buy it. On the contrary, the lower the income, the more people want to save time to get money from other places. As long as this coal can save the time cost of chopping wood, so that they can exchange this time cost for other wealth, then they will not hesitate to do it.

The so-called cost is not only the data on the surface, but also the change of thinking. It's just that ordinary people can't imagine it, and only the parties will really understand it. Shi Bufan even saw a story of high-speed rail in later generations, and many people originally thought that people who took high-speed rail were mainly people with good economic conditions. In fact, when I looked at it later, it turned out to be mainly migrant workers. Those migrant workers calculated that they could arrive at their destination one day earlier by high-speed rail, which meant that they could do one more day's work, which could just offset the fares of those high-speed railways, which meant that they could bring home more than a few hundred yuan of money. Especially during the festival, you can ask for more wages, which is the cost of labor and time, which is easy to ignore, and it is difficult for the parties to have a personal experience.

Therefore, it can be inferred that there is actually a large market for coal for people's daily clean energy, and it is not that ordinary people take it for granted that people are unwilling to buy it, on the contrary, people may be very enthusiastic about buying it. Coal processed according to a certain standard is easy to ignite, and it is very convenient to use in various ways, which can save a lot of time, and saving time is saving the most valuable wealth.

"Okay, since that's the case, then I can represent the Wang family and work with you to mine this coal from the east of our river. However, I think all the funds should come from you, and our Wang family accounts for at least half of the money! As for local affairs, our Wang family still has a certain ability there, and we are not afraid that someone will come to mess around. Even the local labor and so on are all in charge of our Wang family. You just have to take the money out so we can work together. Wang Qi said.

Shi Bufan laughed and said: "Wang Shizhong, you really don't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles, just follow me to the white wolf with empty gloves." Drinking the Wang family's penny without paying a penny, do you want to account for fifty percent? ”

"Hehe, I'm not too relieved! You say you have a great future when you touch the skin of your mouth, but we still don't feel at ease. If you don't pay, how can we rest assured? As for saying that our Wang family accounts for fifty percent, this is very reasonable! I think you should understand the truth that a strong dragon does not suppress the head snake. After all, Hedong is the foundation where our royal family has lived for generations, and we are deeply rooted there and affect all aspects. As long as there is our Wang family, there is no one to come and mess around. At that time, your interests are also the interests of our royal family, and we will make money together. ”

"Otherwise, you can't want someone to make trouble in three days, right? You should know that we also have a lot of 'ruffians' in Hedong! Wang Jue said with a smile.

"Hey, aren't your Taiyuan royal family the biggest ruffian in the area?" Shi Bufan complained in his heart.

However, Shi Bufan will not mind dividing shares, Shi Bufan knows very well that sharing is the basis for truly becoming bigger and stronger. If you don't have a gold finger or black technology, you don't want to refuse to share shares. Distribute shares to those who have the ability, the power, the connections, and all kinds of resources. Through these shares as a link, everyone is tied together as an interest group that prospers and loses, so that the ability to resist risks is stronger.

When the time comes, when there is a crisis, everyone will bear it together, and if there is a benefit, everyone will share it together. This is the core of the joint-stock system, and the core essence of the joint-stock system is to "share", not to monopolize. The existence of the shareholding system is not to let you hold all the shares in your hands, but to let you know how to divide them. Therefore, if Shi Bufan has no black technology and no golden finger, then he will inevitably win over a large number of interest communities by dividing shares and dividing elements. Although there may be some contradictions in politics, it is not necessarily impossible to cooperate appropriately in business. As long as there are common interests, there is a basis for cooperation. Whether it is in politics or business, there are no absolute friends and enemies, even if there is competition among business peers, but they can also cooperate for the common good!

"Okay, since that's the case, then I don't mind giving fifty percent of the Wang family's share. However, when the time comes, the investment department of the Qin family will be responsible for the investment, and I can even ask the Wang family to assign the shopkeeper to be responsible for the daily management. In this way, we have a foundation for cooperation, so that everyone can make a fortune together, what do you say? Shi Bufan said.

"Okay, I promise, if our Wang family is here, then no one in the local area will affect our common business." Wang Jue said.

Wang Jue agreed, he didn't have to pay a penny, everything was paid by Shi Bufan, so why didn't their Wang family agree? Anyway, if he succeeded, his Wang family accounted for fifty percent of the shares, and if he failed, it would be an extraordinary loss, why should he refuse? Of course, this is also related to today's Shi Bufan and the release of goodwill by the Wang family. Shi Bufan released goodwill with the Wang family, and took the initiative to recommend Wang Xuance to serve as the Honglu Temple, which is actually Shi Bufan releasing goodwill and expressing goodwill to the Wang family. So Wang Jue has the basis for commercial cooperation with Shi Bufan.

As for the nobles and officials who do not do business, do you believe this? There are policies and countermeasures, and the families of cadres are forbidden to do business back then, but as a result, there are many officials or family members in a large group of companies to serve as "consultants" of the company?
