Chapter 163 Borrowing Money
"I want to borrow some money!" , Youfang Shi Tailang's face was not very good-looking when he said this, but Shengguo thought it was quite normal.
No matter how good the relationship between people is, there is only one thing that is the hardest to open your mouth, and that is money. When it is really a last resort, no one wants to open their mouths to ask others to borrow money, not only to make themselves look a little low, but also to look at other people's faces. No matter how good a friend encounters such a thing, the relationship between this friend will probably be cut in half.
Shengguo didn't say that he wouldn't lend it to him, nor did he say that he would definitely borrow it, he walked outside the door, and Shitaro followed him. In terms of height, Youfang Shi Tailang is seventeen or eighteen years old after all, and he is more than a head taller than the Holy Kingdom, but at this time, he is hunched over his waist and lowers his head, and he looks about the same height as the Holy Kingdom. He followed behind the Holy Kingdom step by step, his head bowed, and he couldn't see any change in expression on his face, but his heart was racing.
After walking to the door and stopping, the holy kingdom asked, "Tell me how much you want to borrow and what you want to do." ”
Whether it is a good friend or a brother, even if a father and son want to take money, they always have to say the reason, it is not who makes it difficult for whom. You can't say that you want to borrow money to go to waste, and you can't.
"In the past two years, the number of orders has increased, and the blacksmith shop at home has only one furnace, which can no longer keep up with the speed of forging. My father and I wanted to expand the blacksmith shop, build more furnaces, hire more people, and hire one or two master craftsmen to improve the quality of the finished product. It's just that these things cost money, and the family couldn't get them out for a while, and I saw that the orders for the new season were about to come down, so I ......"
The rest was not spoken, and the holy kingdom understood what he meant.
The biggest feature of the ninja 100 is centralized consumption, which saves the time of running to multiple places, and you can get it together at one time in the 100 ninja dogs. What's more, these ninja tools have a unified standard, and once you get used to it, you will feel a little inexplicable when you change to other forbearance. After getting used to the 100 standard ninja tools, there is no room for other things in his eyes.
More and more centralized sales make a large number of goods traded every day by Nindo Baigu, and the orders issued to various subway craftsmen and workshops every month are also increasing. It was indeed very clever to think of expanding the blacksmith shop at this time, and it was a good time to seize it. With the gradual rollout of Nindo Baigu's stores and channels abroad, the number of orders will be more in the future.
In this regard, the Holy Kingdom still agreed, he nodded and asked, "How much do you want to borrow?" ”
Youfang Shi Tailang laughed with him, pursed his lips, and then said a number that he thought was very large, "five million taels ......", saying that he seemed to think of something, and hurriedly added: "If it really doesn't work, three million taels is also okay, and the master craftsman will not be invited." ”
The master craftsman, the craftsman, and the master correspond to the rank of the craftsman, in fact, in a strict sense, there is no accurate division of the rank of the craftsman. According to the current conventional division method, the master craftsman is about equal to a craftsman who is proficient in forging all kinds of high-quality customized goods, and the long-term manufacturing makes the craftsman's craftsmanship and infinite perfection, and there is a little less agility than the craftsman. Craftsmen are not only able to forge anything, but more importantly, they create something that has a spirituality, or potential. In the process of use, it will gradually reflect a different, mysterious and mysterious thing.
As for the Shangzao ......, there is only one person in the entire Fire Country, and he hasn't shown up for a long time. If the craftsman makes something spiritual, then the thing that is made by the upper is "alive"!
It is true that a master craftsman needs a salary of about one million taels a year, and he also has to take a certain commission from his works, which seems to be not cost-effective to hire a master craftsman, but that was before. Many high-end ninja customers have the habit of customizing ninja tools in Ninja Road, and the custom cost of these ninja tools is very expensive, and the profits are also very large.
The most famous in the channel is the "Three Worlds Thousand Books" customized by a guest, which is simply a thousand books, but this thousand books are different, there are three layers from the outside to the inside. When the outermost Senbon is stopped in high-speed movement, a small opening will be made in the front and the second Senbon in the stomach will be spit out. If the second team is also intercepted, or if it hits the target, the third team will shoot as well.
But the role of the third Senbon is not to "shoot", but to "split", and when the third Senbon touches anything, it will split into six petals in an instant, and if it hits the human body, or if someone grabs it with his hand, it .......
The price of such a thousand copies is 100,000 taels, and the generous guest bought 30 in one go, which is 3 million taels!
But what about the cost? In addition to less than ten taels of steel, it only consumes the energy of the maker. Then again, whether it's a master or a craftsman, isn't it just for them to spend so much money?
It's not surprising that Ishitaro and his family's old blacksmith could have such thoughts.
"I see, when do you want to?" , Shengguo agreed in one bite, of course, not because he felt that he owed something to the oil mill Shi Tailang, according to the rules of the Ren Wuyue family and all the shops and blacksmith shops under his command, the blacksmith shop was the Ren Wuyue family in the final analysis, and it was only temporarily "loaned" to the blacksmiths for use. Once the contract expires, the blacksmith can spend money to buy out the shares of the Ren Wuyue family, or he can continue to work for the Ren Wuyue family.
So even if the money is lent out, it's just a left-handed to right-handed.
I didn't expect to be able to borrow money from the Holy Country so easily, and there were some words that didn't even have a chance to speak, and a different color flashed on the face of Shi Tailang. That's a huge sum of five million taels, and I actually gave it when I said it. He struggled in the deepest part of his heart, and was quickly extinguished by the flames of reason, and there was no way back for him.
In his plan, he would eventually leave the Fire Nation with the huge sum of five million taels, find a small country in the middle of nowhere, and then hire a ninja to be his teacher. Five million taels was enough to get him through the first five years. Five years later, he already has ninja abilities and is still free, and he can live a better life. He clenched his fists, with a grateful expression on his face, and he looked like he wanted to pull out his heart, "It's too ...... Thank you so much, I hesitated for a long time before, but I didn't expect it...... It really helped. ”
"There is one more thing that may need to be bothered to you, as you know, my father and I only have a general idea of the expansion of the blacksmith shop, so I hope that the Holy Kingdom Monarch can come to your door to guide you. It may be presumptuous, but my father and I really want you to point us in this regard. After all, the Ren Wuyue family has a great advantage in this regard. ”
Shengguo thought about it and felt that there was no problem, not to mention the almost meager friendship, the expansion of the blacksmith shop was beneficial to the Ren Wuyue family itself. Only more furnaces, more blacksmiths can satisfy the ever-expanding share of sales. He didn't think about it for long before agreeing, "So when?" ”
"The day after tomorrow, my father and I will be waiting for you the day after tomorrow!"
After seeing the oil mill Shi Tailang leave, Shengguo shook his head with a smile and closed the door. A few simple conversations with Ishitaro reminded him of something that he had overlooked, and that was the factory. The factory is a manifestation of the growth and improvement of productivity, and although the blacksmith shops of the Ren Wuyue family are all over the country and continue to spread outward, in the final analysis, they are still playing guerrilla warfare, which limits the increase in output.
But what if there is a modern management factory with assembly line characteristics? Will it alleviate the heavy manufacturing burden that is now being carried away? It's very interesting, and when Orange Light comes back, discuss it with him.
Time always slips away from people unconsciously, and in a blink of an eye, it is time to make an appointment with Ishitaro of the oil mill. After arranging the disciples' homework, Shengguo changed into a very ordinary robe, put on a cloak and went out. The money is still on him, and after talking about it with Orange Light last night, Orange Light immediately became interested. If it turned out that factories were indeed a great help to increase production, he decided to set up factories in major cities across the country to alleviate the current tight production capacity.
If the factory experiment is successful, does it mean that the world is starting to go down a path that should not be taken?
The Holy Kingdom smiled self-deprecatingly, he didn't have such a big ability, or the factory couldn't have a serious impact on this world.
Before he knew it, he saw the blacksmith shop with curtains hanging on the side of the street, and the sound of continuous knocking came from it, and Shi Taro stood on the street and looked around, and when he saw the Holy Kingdom, he beckoned to the blacksmith shop, and soon greeted the old blacksmith together.
"I'm so sorry for bothering you to come here in person!" , The old blacksmith still had a humble expression on his face, since he signed an agreement with the Ren Wuyue family, he can be regarded as the "house slave" of the Ren Wuyue family, and only after the expiration of the twenty-year contract can he regain his free body. Therefore, in the mouth of the old blacksmith, the Holy Kingdom became the Young Master of the Holy Kingdom, and he also used honorifics like "you" to call the Holy Kingdom.
Shengguo smiled and nodded, it was the countless people like the old blacksmith who formed the huge business system of the Ren Wuyue family, and they were the foundation of the Ren Wuyue family. He waved his hand, "You're welcome, I've heard from Shitaro that you're planning to expand the blacksmith shop, right?" ”
Shi Taro of the oil mill had already talked to the old blacksmith about the matter, although some blamed the adopted son for going to the young master of the Ren Wuyue family to borrow an astronomical amount like "five million" without his consent, but the old blacksmith was still very excited in his heart. Once the blacksmith shop expanded, his income would definitely increase exponentially. If you're lucky, you'll be able to pay it back in six or seven years.
There weren't many opportunities like this, and he didn't need to be persuaded by Shitaro in the oil mill, so he gritted his teeth and made a decision.
