The storm is indeed coming towards the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.

However, this storm did not bring trouble, but countless ordinary people in and around the city of Bonta who wanted to make a fortune overnight.

After the product launch, the small chamber of commerce support plan of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce was hyped by several newspapers in the city, and the city lord's mansion also publicly posted relevant notices on the municipal square, so it only took a few days to become known in Bangta City.

Knowing that a few ordinary farmers in Irish Village could earn hundreds of gold coins a month by participating in this program, the ordinary people in and around Bonta City almost instantly went crazy.

Overnight, countless chambers of commerce with strange names popped up in Bangta City, and then these small chambers of commerce that suddenly appeared proposed to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to join the small chamber of commerce support program.

In just three days, more than 1,000 chambers of commerce have applied to join the program.

While the vast majority of them are new chambers of commerce that have been hastily registered in the past few days, there are also some small chambers that have long been in the city of Bonta for a long time.

In the face of such a large number of applications, several of the City Lord's Mansion officials who were sent by Count Satsuma to assist the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in implementing this plan were as tired as dogs during this time, and they were busy from morning to night every day, and they didn't even sleep for more than five hours.

Fortunately, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce had already developed a fairly detailed review criteria before launching this program, and any small chamber of commerce that did not meet the standards would not accept applications, saving them a lot of things.

One of the most basic is that a small chamber of commerce that applies to join the small chamber of commerce support program must have the most basic proof of funds.

And the lower limit of this funding. For the time being, it was also set at 200 gold coins.

This article alone will directly brush down half of the more than 1,000 applicants.

Plus the other criteria. In the end, only more than 200 people were qualified to participate in the small chamber of commerce support program.

However, in front of more than 200 small chambers of commerce, I learned that even if I participated in the small chamber of commerce support program. However, it is impossible to directly produce complete magic machinery such as magic fans, magic rice cookers, magic bread machines, etc., and can only choose to produce some parts of these magic machines, and immediately more than half of the small chambers of commerce chose to quit.

In the end, only 87 small chambers of commerce remained that insisted on participating in the small chamber of commerce support program.

"Xu Yi, before you said that you would give the screws to Ferriman for production, I don't think it's a big deal, after all, screws are not too important. But now you're telling me that you're going to end up handing over these parts to these small chambers of commerce...... Hey, are you going to dismantle our home magic machine production workshop?"

As Hui Ye's prestige in the Chamber of Commerce gradually increased. In the current Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, only Heince is the only one who will accuse Xu Yi so unceremoniously in person.

Today was not yet the day when he would return to Bonta City every month, but when he saw a follow-up report on the small chamber support program in the Kalmar Daily, he couldn't help but run back.

Not for anything else, just to question Xu Yi face to face.

"Who said I wanted to dismantle the household magic machinery production workshop?" Xu Yi glanced at him inexplicably. "I said you came back today specifically for this?"

Heinze pointed to the representatives of the eighty-seven small chambers of commerce who were visiting the workshop of household magic machinery under the leadership of Ankato at this time, and said angrily: "Isn't it? The work of this workshop now is to produce those parts and then assemble them, and you now have to hand over the work of producing these parts to those small chambers of commerce that I have never heard of." So what else do you want this workshop to do? Do you just simply assemble those parts every day?"

"Wait...... Heinze, I find your logic very problematic. Xu Yi frowned. "Even if I hand over the work of processing parts to those small chambers of commerce, why does it mean that this workshop has nothing to do?"

"Nonsense! These things were originally done by the workers in the production workshop of our household magic machinery, and you gave them to someone else. Of course our workers will have nothing to do!" Heinze said angrily.

"Who said...... Oh, I see. Xu Yi patted his head and reached out to stop Heinze's shoulder. Haha smiled and said, "Blame me for not making it clear to you." Well...... How to say it, I'll tell you clearly. Even if these 87 small chambers of commerce are allowed to join the ranks of producing and processing parts, it will not affect the work of our chamber of commerce itself in the slightest. I'm sure of that, so you don't have to worry. ”

Although Heinze was angry in his heart, he knew that Xu Yi would never joke with himself in this situation, so he couldn't help but ask, "What the hell is going on?" ”

"That's right. You see, first of all, you were the main person in charge of this workshop before, and I think you should know very well that in fact, the production capacity of the household magic machinery production workshop has always been a bottleneck. The reason for this bottleneck is that the speed at which we produce and process parts by ourselves can never catch up with the speed of assembly, right?" Xu Yi asked.

Heinze thought for a moment and nodded: "That's right. But before I left, I had already adjusted the ratio of the workers' jobs and tried to keep them as consistent. Could it be that after I left, this kid Ankato changed again?"

"Not really, Ankato did a great job, you don't have to worry. But if you think about it this way, although you have indeed adjusted the proportion of jobs to improve the overall efficiency, this is actually just a compromise, isn't it?" Xu Yi asked again.

"Then what do you want? You said it yourself, the speed of processing and production of parts and components cannot keep up with the speed of assembly, we can't recruit more workers to be responsible for processing and producing parts, right? We don't have such a large space now, unless we ......" Heinze suddenly froze, thought for a moment, and looked at Xu Yi in surprise. "Hey, do you want these little chambers of commerce to take the place of the workers and the sites we need to hire?"

Xu Yi nodded with a smile: "Yes, you finally figured it out." ”

Heinze looked at the representatives of the small chambers of commerce in the distance, and his mind raced, and after a while. He frowned again.

"That's still not right. Although having them produce and process parts allows us to save a lot of manpower and space. But since these parts are processed and produced by them, we can purchase them again. I'm going to make them money. Wouldn't that reduce our own profits?"

Xu Yi smiled: "Heinze, let me ask you a question." Before, we produced a No. 3 screw ourselves, how much did it cost?"

Heinze was stunned and glared at Xu Yi: "How do I know this, you should ask that guy Sebas." ”

"I asked, so I know. Sue sù you, a No. 3 screw, the cost of our own production. According to Sebas's estimates, it is about 25 to 30 copper coins. Xu Yidao.

"Not really, right? The No. 3 screw is so small, and only uses very little pig iron, how can it cost twenty-five copper coins or even thirty copper coins?" Heinze wondered.

"Pig iron is only the cost of materials, but if we calculate the actual cost, we also have to calculate the labor cost, as well as the cost caused by the wear and tear of the magic tooth rubbing machine, and various other factors, and the final estimate is so much. Xu also explained.

"Hmm...... All right. Even if it's so much, but what does it have to do with my question just now?" Heinze asked again.

"Absolutely. Now you know, we produce a No. 3 screw ourselves. It takes about twenty-five copper coins and thirty copper coins, but did you know that we procure a No. 3 screw from the Associated Chamber of Commerce of Ireland. How much does it cost?" Xu Yi asked rhetorically.

"I really didn't pay attention to that. But if you think they also want to make money, then a No. 3 screw should ...... It will sell for about thirty-five copper coins. More words. You're not going to agree. ”

Xu Yi smiled slightly and shook his head: "You are wrong. We are now procuring a No. 3 screw from the Associated Chamber of Ireland. Only twenty-three copper coins are required. ”

"It can't be!" Heinze retorted in immediate surprise. "Don't they make money?"

"No, on the contrary, they can still make money. According to my estimates, a No. 3 screw costs twenty-three copper coins, and can earn about five copper coins. Xu Yidao.

"How is that possible!" Heinze was simply shocked this time. "It costs twenty-five or even thirty copper coins for us to produce a No. 3 screw ourselves, why can't they even use twenty copper coins?

Seeing Heinze's excited expression, Xu Yi knew that this must have hurt Heinze's self-esteem as the former director of the household magic machinery production workshop, so he patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's none of your business." However, because the employee benefits of our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce are relatively good, the investment in labor costs is relatively high. As for the United Chamber of Commerce of Ireland, they themselves are the owners of the Chamber of Commerce, and they are also employees, so the labor cost can be ignored for them, so naturally the overall cost can be much lower than ours. ”

"And what about the quality of the screws they make? If it's not as good as our own, I'm still against you. Heinze was still unconvinced.

"It's a pity that the screws they made are even a little better in quality than we made ourselves......" Xu Yi said helplessly.

"Ahh

"It's simple because they're professional. Xu Yi shrugged his shoulders with a hint of relief in his expression. "I just sold them a few magic grinding machines and some related equipment, and taught them the process of producing screws, but I didn't expect that they kept improving themselves during this time, and now the screws produced are quite good in terms of overall quality. Even more than I am on the ground...... Well, all in all very good and definitely in line with the requirements of our chamber of commerce. ”

Heinze looked at the representatives of the small chamber of commerce who happened to be working in the workshop for only two days in the distance, muttered a few words, and suddenly asked Xu Yi: "I can now understand why you want to hand over the parts processing to these small chambers of commerce, but Xu Yi, don't you worry, when will these small chambers of commerce grow up and then steal all the business of our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?"

Xu Yi smiled slightly: "If they can really do this, I will definitely raise my hands to welcome it." ”

Looking at the sincere smile on Xu Yi's face, Heince patted his head painfully.

"I forgot, you're a lunatic!" (To be continued......
