Chapter Fifty-Seven: Deciding to Go to the Western Regions

After a good night's sleep, Lin Sen woke up and thought about how to form a regular chamber of commerce and expand the size of the caravan. Now there are a few people in the village who have business talents, but they are not experienced enough, and they can only be independent after some experience, such as Zhang Hua, and there are people in the caravan this time, who also have some experience after this experience, and they can all be used separately.

I found Lu Wen, Wang Lei and others to discuss: "The large number of materials brought back this time should be sold as soon as possible, this time out, don't stick to Jizhou and Yangzhou and other places, like Youzhou, Qingzhou have some special products that can be bought and sold, I know that there are Youzhou finished products, the fruit has a kind of pear that is more resistant to storage, and Qingzhou also has some special products." There are also some important things, that is, weapons and equipment, ordnance drawings, ship drawings, these things are the most important things for an alien like me, and the profits in them will be great, and you can do it. If you buy the blueprints of large ships and the blueprints of weapons and equipment above yellow, keep them and don't sell them to others, the village has also accumulated some green and blue-level weapons and equipment manufacturing drawings during this period of time, you can take them together, but don't sell them in the north, and sell them in the south when you go to business next time. ”

"Subordinates obey orders."

"As for the convoy, another 5,000 soldiers will be drawn from the barracks to serve as escorts. You can do your best. ”

"Thank you, Lord." Wang Lei said: "Lord! I suggest that the lord can open some shops in some counties and counties in Jizhou to sell the materials in his hands. In this way, it will be easier to buy and sell after having a store, and secondly, you can make more money, and third, if you open more shops, the power of gathering will be greater, so you don't have to look at the faces of those big families to do business. ”

Lin Sen pondered for a while and said: "This matter is a good thing, so that I will transfer you a sum of money from the city, you are now opening shops in various counties and counties in Jizhou, if you still have the spare strength to open in other states and counties, after some time, the city has accumulated money, and it will be given to you in a steady stream, as for the details, it is all left to your Chamber of Commerce to prepare, what you need, I will try my best." Everyone took the order and left, Lu Wen stayed, and Lin Sen wanted to know about the situation of the craftsmen in the city.

Lu Wen took a sip of tea and said: "At present, there are more than 1,000 craftsmen in the city, there are only 7 master craftsmen, 130 senior craftsmen, and the rest are primary, intermediate and apprentices, and many sets of green equipment can be produced every day, more white equipment, and arrows required by the lord, but the blue equipment is only one set for two days, and the ship drawings brought back by President Wang Lei have also been put into production. Transports and warships have been being built all the time, but they are not easy to build and are time-consuming and costly. ”

"Oh, it seems that master craftsmen are not easy to cultivate, how much does that transport ship and warship cost?"

"Back to the lord, a transport ship needs 10,000 yuan and 500 square meters of wood, a warship needs 50,000 yuan and 10,000 square meters of wood, and some iron will be used, and the transport ship needs very little iron, and the warship can have more!"

It's really expensive, sure enough, the navy is a symbol of big industry, it's too expensive, this is still an intermediate warship, if it's a high-level, super-class warship, and a giant ship, how much does it cost to build one! It seems that in the future, the money will have to be saved, and it can't be wasted, and I don't know how much it will cost to form a naval army!

"Well, it's quite expensive, but don't stop building, these ships will come in handy in the future, even if we can't use them, we can sell them to the south, we can sell them for a good price!"

The original Lu Wen may never have imagined that he was originally just a wandering and down-and-out village chief, but since he met the lord he met, he was reused, and now he is already the deputy city lord of Qingquan City, with a high and powerful position, and the lord is also equipped with enough helpers for him, now he only needs to arrange work, and understand the development of the city, and the specific work is done by the heads of each department, and it will save a lot of things to report to him immediately after it is done.

Lu Wen hurriedly said: "Subordinates obey orders!" Lord, now there are too many people engaged in farming, and the number of cattle is too much, and the subordinates suggest that they buy a batch back, so that although the cost is larger, the help to us in the long run will greatly exceed the investment, not to mention that the cattle can also give birth to calves, and more can also be sold to others. ”

Lin Sen forgot about this matter, ploughing cattle are too helpful for farming, and the efficiency will be increased several times after having ploughing cattle: "No problem, go to the county seat to buy cattle, buy enough, and there are canal drawings, also buy a few more, build them all at once, and you will have peace of mind in the future!" ”

"Okay, my subordinates will calculate it and see how much it needs, and then go to the county seat to buy it back!" Lu Wen hurriedly left to arrange work matters.

Speaking of the caravan alone, Lin Sen didn't understand much about doing business, so he completely delegated power to Wang Lei and others. Wang Lei and others took a large number of supplies and traveled separately in various states and counties in the north under the escort of the escort team, selling materials everywhere.

It's also good to say, the supplies brought back from the south are very popular in the north, and tea and salt are essential items for life, so they are naturally sold out, and they are quickly sold out in various counties.

Even the pearls, gold, silver, bronze and other ornaments brought back also caused a strong influence in the family. The exquisite ornaments were warmly sought after by the family, and they were quickly sold out, and there was a lot of money, and some people did not buy these things, and they were clamoring to order, so that the Chamber of Commerce could buy more and bring it over.

The Chamber of Commerce made a lot of money as a result, and everyone began to discuss the store. Wang Lei first said: "Tell me what you have found in various places these days. ”

"Youzhou is relatively rich, close to the northern ethnic minorities, there are a large number of fur horses, and the jade carvings are also very exquisite, and the pears that the lord said are really delicious, these can be purchased in large quantities, and silk silk products are also very popular in Youzhou." Zhang Hua first said that he was sent to the Youzhou area.

Others then began to have different opinions, providing a lot of ideas for Wang Lei's reference, mentioning that Qingzhou's grape cultivation is very good, but unfortunately the grapes are not very shelf-stable. Wang Lei asked him to bring back some seedlings of grapevines and plant them in the village.

In the end, we gathered everyone's ideas and decided to open daily necessities stores and finished goods stores in Jizhou and Qingzhou; Youzhou and the state only open daily necessities stores; Xu and Yanzhou opened stores selling manufactured goods from Youzhou. At present, the financial resources of the chamber of commerce are not enough to open a large number of shops, so it only opens one shop in the administrative office of each state and county, and opens more shops in Jizhou, and then slowly develops and grows into various states and counties.

After the discussion, Wang Lei assigned the task to everyone, and everyone received the task and began a new round of intense busyness, and selected a large number of people from Qingquan City to serve the Chamber of Commerce.

Now it can be said that Lin Sen's business empire has emerged, and I believe that it will develop rapidly in the future, providing Lin Sen with a steady stream of money.

As the saying goes, money can make ghosts grind, and with money can you recruit soldiers, recruit talents, and equip soldiers with the best equipment.

There will be more than a year to usher in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, when the most serious poison is Jizhou, if there is no strong strength, it is estimated that even itself will be difficult to protect, and how to develop and grow.

Lin Sen is not like those big guilds, he has a lot of members and money to develop his strength, he is the only one who needs to be cautious, and he must always work hard to develop in all aspects.

In the past few days, Lin Sen found another business talent, named Wu Lun, because this Wu Lun proposed a good idea for Lin Sen, that is, the Silk Road, let Lin Sen open it suddenly, the Silk Road has always been a very profitable road. You can see the local customs along the way, and you can also buy furs, jade, spices and the best war horses along the way, which must be opened as soon as possible.

Speaking of this, Wu Lun also has a bit of a background, he originally had a lot of money, he made a fortune by doing business in the Western Regions, but the last time he came back from the Western Regions and passed through Xiliang, he was ransacked by robbers, and even the people he brought with him were killed, he finally escaped and returned home!

But a bigger disaster is waiting for him, as the saying goes, you don't complain about the society, you can't complain about the government, he didn't go home for a few days, and the town where he lived was robbed by the rebels in the south again, this time it was completely finished, there was no property left, there was no way to escape the war and could only come to Jizhou, and it happened to be collected to Qingquan City!

However, there may be dangers along the way in the Western Regions, so he wants to personally lead the team over once and feel better in his heart. For this reason, he pondered that he had to make a big one this time, not only the number of caravans should be large, but also the escort troops should be more, and the ethnic minorities in the northwest region are brave and good at fighting.

He also wanted to see if the countries of the Western Regions had what he wanted! ……
