Chapter 169: The Yecheng Branch of the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce opened
Yecheng, the palace of the king of Wei.
After Lin Chuan showed Cao Cao and Xun Yu the Quyuan plough and the cylinder car, the sky had also darkened.
So the three of them simply made a mutton hot pot in the side hall.
"Mr. Lin's mutton hot pot, this king really never gets tired of eating it, hahaha!"
Cao Cao took a sip of white wine, picked up a piece of mutton and put it into the copper hot pot, and said to Lin Chuan while soaking the mutton.
"This mutton is fragrant and tender, and it is very delicious!"
Xun Yu, who had been in the dust all the way, also said with satisfaction after swallowing the mutton in his mouth.
Lin Chuan, who was eating fragrantly, also nodded at the two of them again and again, and raised his glass.
After the three of them had eaten and drunk enough, Cao Cao wanted to see how the Hanzhong branch in Yecheng was being built tomorrow.
Lin Chuan naturally accompanied Cao Cao.
Xun Yu has other disaster relief work to deal with.
That night, except for Lin Chuan, Cao Cao and Xun Yu were all tossing and turning.
Cao Cao was thinking about what Lin Chuan's description of the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce and production bases would look like after they spread throughout the Great Wei Dynasty.
Xun Yu was thinking about how long a scholar gate valve like the Yingchuan Xun clan could continue to exist.
Early in the morning of the second day.
Lin Chuan didn't drink much with Cao Cao and Xun Yu last night, so Lin Chuan woke up as soon as the sun came out.
After washing, Lin Chuan waited for almost an hour, and Cao Cao hadn't come to look for him, nor did he let anyone tell him to go over to find Cao Cao.
After Lin Chuan had breakfast, Cao Cao yawned and found Lin Chuan.
"Mr. Lin, this king has ordered someone to prepare the carriage, let's set off."
"Okay."
Cao Cao and Lin Chuan got into the carriage and headed straight to the southeast of the city.
Liu Ba had already come to the side of the Yecheng Hanzhong Branch.
"I've seen Lord Wei, I've seen the Marquis of Hanzhong!"
After Liu Ba greeted Cao Cao and Lin Chuan respectively, he took the two of them into the Yecheng Hanzhong Branch.
Under Lin Chuan's instructions, the Hanzhong branch of Yecheng was built like an exhibition hall in later generations.
The entire Yecheng branch headquarters is divided into three floors: upper, middle and lower.
The lowest floor is a large exhibition hall where all the products of the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce are displayed.
Liu Ba took Lin Chuan and Cao Cao to the commodity exhibition hall on the first floor first.
In the hall, Cao Cao saw industrial and agricultural products such as water-powered looms, zigzag ploughs and cylinder carts.
Next to each product is a description of the product and instructions for use.
And in the exhibition hall, there are not only these machinery and farm tools, but also red bricks and cement, all kinds of glasses, and rice paper and all the goods produced by the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce.
In order to start the popularity of the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce in the entire Great Wei Dynasty faster, Lin Chuan did not hide his secrets at all.
After Cao Cao looked at the goods in the hall on the first floor, he asked Lin Chuan:
"Mr. Lin, the products in this hall are all produced by the assembly line you mentioned before, right?"
"Yes, all products are produced on the assembly line, and all parts between the same products can be replaced."
After Lin Chuan finished answering Cao Cao's question, he gestured to Liu Ba with his eyes.
Liu Ba, who understood it, continued to explain to Cao Cao after Lin Chuan's words.
"Lord Wei Wang, now the water-powered loom is in the Hanzhong loom base, and one can be produced in one day."
"The quyuan plough can produce ten units per day, and the drum car can produce fifteen units per day......"
Liu Ba introduced the daily product output of each production base in Hanzhong to Cao Cao one by one.
After the product introduction was completed, Liu Ba took Cao Cao and Lin Chuan to the second floor of the Chamber of Commerce.
The second floor of the chamber of commerce is designed to resemble a private dining room in a restaurant.
It is convenient for merchants and people to have a relatively quiet and private environment to continue to negotiate after taking a fancy to the products they want to buy.
The third floor of the Chamber of Commerce is completely designed as a hotel, which is convenient for merchants who often come to the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce to purchase.
The headquarters of the Yecheng branch of the entire Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce does not have a warehouse.
Because the production base in Yecheng has been completed ahead of schedule, the recruitment of craftsmen has also been completed.
After Cao Cao and Lin Chuan finished watching the Yecheng branch, Cao Cao wanted to go to the production base to take a look at the situation.
So Liu Ba took Cao Cao and Lin Chuan out of the city and came to the production base outside the city.
In fact, the production base can also be built in the city.
However, considering the various noises emitted by the production base and the convenience of transporting raw materials, Liu Ba finally decided to build the production base outside the city.
At present, there is only one production base in Yecheng, which is modeled after the original Hanzhong production base.
After Cao Cao came to the production base, he saw the production lines of various products in the base.
There are also craftsmen on the production line who are training the newly recruited people to work in the production base.
Originally, Lin Chuan wanted to build nine production bases in Yecheng at the same time, but he was persuaded by Liu Ba after some analysis.
Liu Ba felt that the time for the nine production bases in Hanzhong to be put into production was still too short.
Although the land needed to build a production base is definitely not a problem, there are not so many craftsmen who are mature enough to be masters.
The nine production bases in Hanzhong have digested all the old craftsmen.
Although there are many craftsmen in Yecheng, they don't know much about assembly line production.
Even if some workshops taught by masters and apprentices have begun to carry out division of production, it still takes a while to learn to reach the level of masters required by the production base.
After listening to Liu Ba's analysis, Lin Chuan felt that he was also a little urgent, so he agreed to Liu Ba's approach.
For Liu Ba, the production base in Yecheng is like a branch exhibition hall in the city.
It's just that the production base is not showing the product, but the production base itself.
After Cao Cao and Lin Chuan saw the entire production base, they returned to Yecheng with Liu Ba.
"Zichu, it seems that Mr. Lin doesn't have the talent to bury Zichu at all!"
"This branch and production base, Zichu is doing very well!"
On the way back to Yecheng, Cao Cao praised Liu Ba's ability.
"Lord Xie Wei's praise! In the next place, it is all up to Lord Hou of Hanzhong to guide the direction. ”
Liu Ba said modestly to Cao Cao.
When Lin Chuan heard Liu Ba being so humble, he said to Liu Ba:
"Zichu, you don't have to be so humble."
"Now that the Yecheng branch and production base have been built and put into use, choose an auspicious day of the zodiac, and Zichu will preside over the opening ceremony of the Yecheng branch!"
Liu Ba heard the overtones in Lin Chuan's words.
Lin Chuan wants to completely entrust the entire Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce to him!
The Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce will soon spread throughout the thirteen states of the world, and will surely grow into a huge business empire in the future.
But Lin Chuan just put such a heavy responsibility on his shoulders lightly.
Cao Cao also cast an inquiring look at Lin Chuan, and Lin Chuan returned with a reassuring smile.
"Liu Ba thanked Lord Hanzhong for his trust!"
Liu Ba didn't say anything grandiose, just thanked Lin Chuan for his trust.
Cao Cao also saw today that this Liu Zichu was calm and moderate, sincere and pragmatic in his words, and he was a person who did great things!
