When Luo Jian had eaten and came to the Four Seas Restaurant with three or four guards, he saw that the restaurant was already crowded with people inside and out, and seeing that it was very popular, Luo Jian was secretly happy in his heart.

Greeting everyone all the way, Luo Jian and the others went up to the second floor, waiting for Shi Kefa and others to arrive, while making preparations. The screen of the projector was set up, and the generator was taken to the next room to start, Xiao Liu and Xiao Wang didn't come today if they had something to do, and Luo Jian had to do it himself.

Many businessmen stood below and watched Luo Jian busy, fiddling with some things that everyone had never seen before, and felt very strange, and they all wanted to squeeze forward to take a closer look, but were stopped by several guards.

In the crowding, I heard someone shouting "The Inspector has arrived", everyone hurriedly squeezed open a passage, and some people wanted to bow down but couldn't even bend their waists.

When Shi Kefa and the others arrived at the front, Luo Jian stepped forward to say hello, and saw that a few people from Ren Minyu's prefect yamen also came, thinking that it was prepared to sign the contract.

stepped forward and asked Shi Kefadao, "Brother Xian, can you talk about it first?" ”

Shi Kefa looked at Luo Jian with some doubts, "Xinghua, you let me talk to these merchants?" ”

Hearing Shi Kefa's words, Luo Jian was a little frightened, didn't the leaders first ask the leaders to give speeches at the investment promotion conferences in later generations?

Before Luo Jian could speak, Ren Minyu came over and said, "Xinghua doesn't understand this, the superintendent is strange, I have already arranged it." After saying that, he waved his hand, and a businessman-like person came up from the crowd below.

"Xinghua, this is the big shopkeeper I invited for you, surnamed Sun, and named Laiyue. Shopkeeper Sun has a lot of insight into the businessmen, you can rest assured, and he will let him negotiate with the businessmen. Ren Minyu introduced Luo Jian.

Sun Laiyue stepped forward and bowed to Shi Kefa, saying "Xiaomin Sun Laiyue has seen the superintendent", Luo Jian only nodded when he saw Shi Kefa.

Only then did Luo Jian react that the status of merchants in China has been extremely low since ancient times, and the merchants of "Shinong Industry and Commerce" have always been ranked last. Although in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, with the great development of commerce, the status of merchants improved. The officials of the Ming Dynasty were very thin, and many officials had business at home, and they were generally hired to operate, and the officials themselves would never come forward. But in the eyes of a clear stream like Shi Kefa, business is still a cheap industry, and Shi Kefa himself lives in extreme poverty, obviously his family has nothing to do with business, and it is reasonable to look down on businessmen.

Sun Laiyue came over to salute Luo Jian and Ren Minyu again, and then took a few steps forward, ready to start talking to everyone. When Luo Jian saw it, he quickly took the megaphone from the guard's hand and opened it and handed it over.

"Ladies and gentlemen in Yangzhou, Sun invited you here today, there is a big business, Sun has a lot of manpower, if you are interested, you can participate in the shares."

After Sun Laiyue finished speaking, he turned around and returned to the stage, and was about to show everyone a few mirrors brought by Luo Jian, Luo Jian stopped him, seeing that he was puzzled, Luo Jian didn't care about him, went up and turned on the projector, walked to the computer and pressed a button, and a column of "warm welcome" was immediately displayed on the screen, which was the slide made by Luo Jian overnight last night.

Everyone in the audience saw the words on the white screen, and they all looked at it curiously, only to see the four big characters slowly fade away, and pictures began to appear, these are all pictures related to the use of glass that Luo Jian searched.

Looking at the exquisite photos, the audience let out bursts of exclamations from time to time, and the people behind who couldn't see clearly jumped to their feet in a hurry. Shi Kefa sat on the side of the screen and couldn't see the screen, seeing this scene, he also stood up and walked over with his hands behind his back, staring at the screen and staring intently.

After waiting for dozens of pictures, a brief introduction to the glass appeared on the screen, and these characters Luo Jian were arranged vertically in traditional Chinese, which was in line with the reading habits at this time. Seeing the words on the screen, the one behind who couldn't read clearly shouted anxiously: "I'll wait for me to read the front!" ”

Sun Laiyue reacted quickly, holding the loudspeaker and reading it out loud on the screen, and as the font on the screen scrolled, the crowd below became more and more agitated.

After the slide show, the agitation below stopped, and there was a moment of silence, and the merchants seemed to be brewing emotions. Finally, a businessman in the front row first bowed his hand to Shopkeeper Sun and asked, "Shopkeeper Sun said that the business is to make this glass?" Sun Laiyue nodded yes.

"Then if I want to buy shares, how do I enter the law?" Another businessman also spoke.

Sun Laiyue was about to speak, Luo Jian picked up a piece of paper from the table and handed it to him, and knocked a few times in front of the computer, and a column of "glass factory shareholding plan" appeared on the screen.

This shareholding plan yesterday Luo Jian and Ren Minyu discussed, considering factors such as the early construction of the factory and raw materials, and finally set 500 taels of silver for one share, tentatively set 1,000 shares, Luo Jian's side to technology and land shares, accounting for 30%, the rest of the individuals who want to buy shares shall not exceed 30%, the top ten shareholders to set up a board of directors, hire a special shopkeeper and personnel to manage the work, regularly report to the board of directors. This plan Luo Jian referred to the operation mode of the joint-stock company in later generations, and was fully affirmed by Ren Minyu.

When Sun Laiyue finished reading the shareholding plan, there was a sudden uproar below, and many businessmen rushed forward, shouting that they wanted to buy shares. When Luo Jian saw it, he felt that he was still too hasty to engage in this investment promotion, but he didn't expect Ren Minyu to intervene in the middle, if he didn't come forward and only let Sun Laiyue operate, he must be specially trained, if he was only allowed to do it according to his own experience, he was afraid that things would mess up.

Hurriedly pulled Ren Minyu and Sun Laiyue aside and said: "Both, if you handle the matters of the shares now, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, I still have to explain some things carefully to the shopkeeper Sun, you set the time to receive the shares in three days, the location is better still here, what do you think?" The two nodded yes.

In fact, Luo Jian didn't know much about these business things, and he just wanted to find time to find information and hand it over to Sun Laiyue to study by himself.

Hearing what Luo Jian said, Sun Laiyue walked to the front with a loudspeaker and said to the people below: "Everyone, please be quiet, we are here today just to introduce to you, if you colleagues want to participate in the shares, please come here again the morning after tomorrow, and that's the end of today." ”

When everyone below heard this, they immediately talked about it, and many businessmen asked to handle it today, Sun Laiyue looked at Luo Jian, and when he saw that he shook his head resolutely, he resolutely stopped letting go.

Shi Kefa stepped forward and asked Luo Jian suspiciously, "Why didn't Xinghua handle it today?" ”

"Brother Xian, what we want to do is not a big workshop, but a factory, according to my preliminary estimate, the number of workers will exceed 1,000 people, which requires careful consideration of too many things, Sun Shopkeeper has no experience in this area, you must do some learning to cross the river by feeling the stones, if you rush into battle, I am afraid that there will be a lot of trouble behind." Luo Jian was packing up the computer and other things on the stage, and at the same time explained to Shi Kefa.

After cleaning up, the guards came over and carried it in their hands. Luo Jian said to Shi Kefa and Ren Minyu: "In the future world, with the development of science and technology, new items such as glass will continue to be manufactured, and businessmen will also shift from simple sales to multiple links of production and sales. ”

Hearing Luo Jian say this, Shi and Ren were a little surprised, and judging from the expressions on their faces, they were a little disapproving. Luo Jian shook his head secretly, thinking in his heart that it was really difficult to change the thinking of emphasizing agriculture over industry and commerce for thousands of years.

When Luo Jian and his entourage left the Four Seas Restaurant, the merchants gathered here were still reluctant to leave, and the three groups of five gathered together and talked non-stop.

When Shi Kefa and Ren Minyu went back to their respective homes, Luo Jian took Sun Laiyue back to his residence and took him to the study to sit down, and took out a stack of materials to show him. When Sun Laiyue sat down to look, Luo Jian leaned his head on the back of his chair and fell into deep thought.

Judging from today's situation, Luo Jian felt that he was really anxious, and he went to open a China Merchants Association without doing any preparations. What I want to build is a factory that can produce products in large quantities, and judging from the current situation, Shi Kefa, Ren Minyu and others obviously regard it as a larger workshop. As for the shopkeeper Sun in front of him, he didn't know anything about him, whether he could get it right, what it would look like, he really didn't have any bottom in his heart.

After thinking about it for a long time, he suddenly remembered that Liu Weimin's family was running a company, although he had been in school and had not been engaged in business, but under the influence of his ears and eyes, he should know something, and let him read more materials and learn more, maybe it would be good, at least there would not be too much imprisonment in thinking. I also thought that if Xiao Liu was drawn here, Xiao Wang's training camp alone would not be reassuring after all, after all, he was too young. Faced with a dilemma for a while, he raised his hand and patted his forehead.

After saying hello to the shopkeeper Sun and letting him take his time, Luo Jian ran to the courtyard and stomped up.

Liu Lan finished her afternoon class and was about to go back to the house to wash up and go over to eat, when she looked up and saw Luo Jian stumbling alone in the courtyard, and she didn't respond to her shouting. When I ran closer, I saw Luo Jian frowning, and he seemed to be muttering something, obviously thinking about the problem.

Running in front of her, Liu Lan stretched out her hand and shook it in Luo Jian's eyes, and Luo Jian reacted and asked, "You finished the class, how is the effect?" ”

"It's very good, now I'm teaching math and natural foundations, and it's easy to get it done." Liu Lan said confidently.

"You've worked hard, I'll go to class when I have time." Luo Jian said.

"Don't use it for the time being, Brother Luo, what's the matter that makes you so worried?" Liu Lan asked with concern.

"Alas, it's not about running a factory." Luo Jian told Liu Lan everything that happened today, as well as his mistakes and worries.

"Oh, Brother Luo, this matter is easy to do, just let Xiao Liu take charge of running the factory, train Xiao Wang here, you just have nothing to do and keep an eye on it." Liu Lan said very dryly.

"That's right! Why did I forget myself! Luo Jian patted his head, and when he heard Liu Lan say this, he thought about it carefully, and his heart suddenly brightened.

While the two were talking, Xiao Liu and Xiao Wang came back from the afternoon's training. Both of them were very excited, and ran over to tell Luo Jian that today's training was good, and Luo Jian was also very happy when he heard it.

Seeing that there was still a while to eat, Luo Jian called the three of them to the rockery to find a place to sit down. After carefully asking Xiao Liu's situation, I learned that he studied chemical engineering in college, although there are still two years of major that he has not learned, but the basic things that should be learned in the first two years have been learned.

Speaking of professional knowledge of glass manufacturing, Xiao Liu is obviously much more professional than several people, asked him if there is a problem with setting up a factory under the existing conditions, Liu Weimin thought about it carefully, and said that although there are difficulties, it is not that there is no alternative way.

Originally, he was worried that he would be unhappy to let Xiao Liu go to set up a factory, but he didn't think that Luo Jian would mention it, and Liu Weimin was very happy. When asked, I learned that he had been thinking about how his family's factory was operated since he was in high school, and secretly read a lot of books on this subject, but he only took three books in the college entrance examination, which made his father decide to send him to the army to train for a few years.

When Luo Jian told him that his father had actually called him and said that most of the family's business was left to him, Liu Weimin's eyes were red, and he said to himself after a while: "I can't take over the company over there, I must do a good job here." ”

When Luo Jian saw that the problem was basically solved, he was so happy that he asked Steward Luo to get some wine for dinner and drink two glasses, and the three of them snickered when they saw it.

Seeing that Shopkeeper Sun came out of the small courtyard, Luo Jian said to him, "Don't be in a hurry to leave, just eat here, we still have a lot to discuss after eating." ”

At the dinner table, I chatted with the shopkeeper Sun to know that he used to be the shopkeeper in Shandong, and the business was very big, and then the Qing soldiers entered Shandong, and the shopkeeper Sun was unwilling to stay in Shandong, so he took a group of people south to Yangzhou.

Hearing that Sun Laiyue was not alone, but there was also a team, Luo Jian was both surprised and happy. introduced Liu Weimin to him, and asked him to bring someone to assist Xiao Liu to set up the factory, and when everything was on the right track, Xiao Liu had to take out to do other things.

Shopkeeper Sun just read the information given by Luo Jian in the study, he was confused, he didn't understand many places, he didn't dare to ask Luo Jian for advice, he was worried that he couldn't do well, and he suddenly relieved himself when he heard Luo Jian say this.

After eating, Liu Weimin took the shopkeeper Sun to discuss the matter of setting up a factory, Wang Qiang went to prepare for tomorrow's training, Liu Lan ran to prepare for class, and Luo Jian was left alone, but he was idle, thought about it for a while, and went out and called two guards to go to the governor's mansion.
