Chapter 289: The Shameful Li Yifu

"Supporting facilities for the construction of new cities."

"Construction of a large-scale logistics industry."

"Storage of supplies to and from caravans."

"Construction of upstream and downstream industries of ranching."

"Procurement of factory materials at all levels."

"The construction of the entertainment industry."

"Cultivation of local consumers."

Summing up one by one, Li Kuan found that there are still many things that need to be done in the grassland, and some industries need to be completely changed.

The most important thing to do is the construction of the logistics industry, and in addition, the purchase of industrial factories at all levels.

For example, his canning factory here, the clay pots and clay pots used for storage, were previously purchased from Shuofang's pottery factory.

Now, with the expansion of the canning industry, more clay pots need to be used, so what should I do? Expand production, increase productivity, and build new pottery factories?

But in Li Kuan's view, this is not an advisable behavior.

It is desirable to reduce costs and the layout of the entire grassland industry, but it is not very desirable to put it in the entire Datang.

One of the problems is that just blindly expanding and affecting the grassland industry chain is that people in other areas cannot make money.

Li Kuan believes that at this time, the newly built pottery factory should be divided into surrounding states and counties, such as neighboring Huazhou.

In this way, it can not only solve the problem of the lack of clay pots in the grassland, but also solve the problem of employment for the people of Huazhou.

The only increase is in the transportation of the proprietary logistics industry.

"However, this involves the industrial layout of Huazhou, and it is probably necessary to let some people in Huazhou merge villages."

"Bringing people together in this way will help them manage their livelihood, improve their survival rate in the wild, and increase the income of local people."

"On top of that, the output of this pottery factory is not very large."

In Li Kuan's vision, a part of the pottery factory can be completely made into the output type of the common people fishing for three days and drying nets for two days.

People have been recruiting, and the people come to work when they are slack, and they go back to work when they are busy.

In this way, the requirements for output cannot be large.

Li Kuan's fundamental idea is to increase the income of some people who are unwilling to work and work away from home.

These people guard their own one-third of an acre of land, and they can eat enough all year round, and they can eat better than before.

However, this is a loss for Li Kuan, and he has no way to exploit their labor.

"There's still a lot of work ahead."

If you change to before, Li Kuan didn't like to do these jobs very much, it was complicated, tiring, and he had to take responsibility.

But now it's different, he already knows that he may ascend the throne later, and there is still a high probability.

In that case, he had to find a way to exercise his abilities now.

Of course, there are also reasons why he doesn't want to let himself be cranky.

There's no way, a mature woman, or a mature girl, is too attractive to him.

Li Kuan had just finished busy and asked people to prepare some resting food, when Li Yifu pushed the door and came in.

Seeing Li Yifu, Li Kuan raised his eyebrows, why did this guy come to see himself.

"I've seen the King of Chu."

Seeing Li Kuan, Li Yifu was very excited.

Raising his eyebrows, Li Kuan didn't quite understand the reason for his excitement.

"What?"

"King Chu, I want to go to Tuyuhun."

Li Kuan raised his eyebrows again, pointed to the door, and said helplessly: "I am a human being, not the king in the wishing pool, nor the gods and Buddhas in the temple, if you can't make a wish, I can agree." ”

Go to Tuyuhun, why don't you go to heaven.

Li Kuan was very disdainful.

Li Yifu was very embarrassed.

Pointing to the next place, let him sit down, and speak slowly.

Li Yifu began to pour bitter water.

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu, in the days of your absence, when I was used as a donkey, and then they didn't give me a promotion."

"I am in charge of the new construction of the entire grassland."

"There are also ranch relocation, commercial street construction, logistics to and fro, etc., many of which I have never been exposed to before, and I am trembling to do it."

"It's finally done, they still don't give me a promotion, they don't allow me to stay in Dingxiang City to do the overall management, I'm here, suppressed, resisted."

In Li Yifu's tearful story, Li Kuan saw Xu Jingzong and Yu Zhining, who were cautious and jealous, and Li Yifu, who was loyal to him.

Li Kuan thought about it for a while, this guy Li Yifu was not in the network of Chu Wangfu.

Li Yifu is on the grassland, and Li Kuan's industry is clearly and clearly, and has nothing to do with it.

Thinking that the grassland part of the industrial chain was completed by Xu Jingzong and Yu Zhining, Li Kuan couldn't help but want to laugh, these two people really hate Li Yifu.

After listening to Li Yifu, Li Kuan took a sip of tea and suppressed the smile in his heart.

"Isn't it good to do practical things down the ground?"

"This can accumulate a lot of contacts for you, such as the relationship with the various tribes of the Xia people, as well as the contacts of merchants."

Li Kuan felt that he had ordered it clearly enough, and the rest depended on Li Yifu.

The construction of new cities, as well as grassland logistics and warehousing industries, can build relationships with Xia people and businessmen.

This is a treasure trove of real power.

Li Yifu hurriedly refused and said with a wry smile: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu, the Xia people are barbaric, they speak straightforwardly, and there is no one to guard the door, I don't like it, they are Turkic transformation, how can Your Majesty accept them." ”

"As for the merchants, they have a low status, and no matter how good the relationship is with them, except for getting some money, the rest will have no effect."

The rat is blind, and he doesn't know how to advance or retreat.

Li Kuan sighed in his heart and said softly: "Yifu, have you thought about a question?" Why are merchants rarely attached to families and officials anymore? ”

Li Yifu frowned, he didn't know what Li Kuan meant by this.

However, he still blurted out: "Merchants seek profit, and in the past, in order to evade taxes, merchants attached themselves to officials or families, and used their titles to achieve tax evasion." ”

"Officials and families, on the other hand, received tribute from merchants, which allowed them to earn extra income to support their families."

"But in the first year of Zhenguan, you and Fang Xiang joined forces to prohibit tax exemptions, so that the merchants and family officials are now separated."

"But it is precisely because of this that businessmen have no value to officials such as us."

"In the past, I took care of them because I wanted to have a relationship with the master behind them, but now that they don't have a master, what's the point?"

Li Yifu felt that Li Kuan was very strange today, and what he said was also very strange.

Li Kuan rubbed his temples, he really didn't know what to say.

You say that Li Yifu is smart, Li Yifu did not see that the businessmen were independent, and with the increase in commercial taxes, His Majesty had the idea of improving the status of the deceitful.

You call him stupid, and the head of his analysis is the Tao.

Li Kuan fell into silence, Li Yifu wanted to say something more, but seeing that Li Kuan didn't speak, he didn't dare to speak again, at this time there was a sigh outside, Xu Jingzong pushed the door in, glanced at Li Yifu, and said with hatred: "Li Yifu, you have analyzed that the merchant and the family are separated, so why don't you understand the meaning of the King of Chu." ”

"The merchant class is no longer a vassal of the scholar class, but is independent, it may still be weak, but it has the possibility of improving its status."

"The merchant class is now a class worth investing in, and you can go and win them over."

Xu Jingzong sprayed in one breath, and then apologized to Li Kuan, saying that he should not eavesdrop.
