Chapter 102 [Railcar Income, Big Wedding]
Hearing Xu Sheng's introduction to the salary of the staff of the dart bureau, Lin Ze subconsciously began to calculate it quickly.
According to the initial goal, the game had to recruit at least 5,000 people.
In other words, if calculated according to the minimum salary, when this dart game really starts to operate, Lin Ze needs to pay a salary of 25,000 taels of silver every month.
Considering that some martial arts masters will be recruited, as well as the cost of supporting logistics for these dart masters, the monthly cost of the dart game will reach a stable level of more than 30,000 taels after it is operational.
"Although it will cost a lot of money to maintain the existence of this dart game, it is completely worth it from the perspective of maintaining the large-scale development of my gold bank's business."
Lin Ze thought in his heart.
Once the business of the gold and silver trade between the two realms began to unfold on a large scale, the wealth he harvested every year was calculated in silver coins, which was calculated in units of 100 million taels.
Compared to this benefit, this cost is nothing at all.
Moreover, with the opening of the dart game, the dart game itself can also create a certain amount of income to offset the cost of Lin Ze's side.
Let Lin Ze spend a smaller price to achieve the purpose of opening a private large dart game.
"I already know how much money it will cost to open a dart bureau, I recently looked at the list of miners in the coal mine, in addition to the people from Fengping County, there are also people from several counties including Qingyu County who came to sign up as miners."
"Under the condition of maintaining the scale of 10,000 miners in the coal mine, with the current increase rate of miners in the coal mine, about 300 people can be transferred to join the dart game every month."
"This kind of personnel replenishment speed is just enough to give you the energy to train with them, and if we continue at this pace, our dart game can be expanded to the predetermined size in two years at most."
Lin Ze finished thinking and calculated, and responded to Xu Sheng.
The candidate for the dart master of the dart bureau must be a miner who has a family fetters in Fengping County and usually works hard in the coal mine.
Only in this way can we minimize the possibility of them running away with money and ensure their loyalty.
"Actually, it won't take two years, if Ziyi's personnel recruitment can keep up, I estimate that the personnel expansion of the entire dart bureau can be completed in one year at most."
"We have limited ability to train personnel now, but in the future, we can let the first batch of dart masters who have learned a little bit take the newcomers behind to train, and I and a few brothers are responsible for continuing to train and strengthen the first batch of dart masters, so that we can quickly make the dart game take shape."
Xu Sheng put forward his own opinion.
After a pause, Xu Sheng smiled again and said: "By the way, Ziyi, there is something I forgot to tell you, I asked Master Zhao to help me get some martial arts and prescriptions for the big road, and he has already agreed to send a master to help protect the wooden rail car." β
"In this way, if the combat strength of our guards is not strong enough, we can help the town first, and they are expected to arrive in two days."
"The font size of the dart board has also been raised, and the font size of our dart bureau under Mingyue Lou is divided according to the phase of the moon, and other crescent moons, moon and other font sizes are already available, and we are divided into the font size of the missing month."
Monthly shortage.
The moon is cloudy and sunny.
"Yes, it's good."
Lin Ze nodded in agreement.
ββ
That's all for the time being.
The next thing that needs to be done is to screen the personnel in the coal mine step by step, and then stuff the people into the monthly dart bureau for training, and wait until they are preliminarily qualified to become official dart masters.
Subsequently, these rookie dart masters continued to grow through the experience.
After a few years, Lin Ze can completely master a huge force and become a top local powerhouse.
When the time comes, you can say a word, Fengping Zhixian of flowing water, and Master Lin of iron.
"Now, let's talk about the wooden railcar."
After finishing the discussion of the dart game, Xu Sheng took out a book of accounts that had been counted today, and said to Lin Ze with some excitement.
"Laughing so happily and earning a lot?"
Lin Ze said with a smile.
"Well, today we transported coal from there to the Fengping County wharf, and a total of 800,000 catties were transported, and the freight cost earned 120 taels of silver, and our personnel and other costs were about 30 taels of silver, and the net profit was 90 taels of silver."
"After a month, I will earn two thousand seven hundred taels, and I will earn more than thirty thousand taels a year, and I will be rich, Ziyi, we can buy some medicinal materials to assist in martial arts cultivation, maybe you haven't reached the super-first-class realm yet, so I'll be first-class first."
Xu Sheng said with a smile.
Today, the wooden rail car started running at 8 a.m. and ended at 6 p.m., and what Xu Sheng is talking about right now is ten hours of earnings data.
In principle, the follow-up is almost every day, because the follow-up needs to allow time for the track to be overhauled, and the wooden railcar will not run at night.
The only pity is that the materials needed at the mine are limited, and the return minecart cannot run at full capacity, and the benefits are almost negligible for the time being.
"It doesn't cost the same to build wooden tracks."
Lin Ze complained.
"Even the materials and construction labor, the cost adds up to 1,300 taels of silver, or it will be earned back in less than half a month."
"Besides, we can continue to build more tracks in the future to speed up the efficiency of material transportation, until we can send all the coal produced by the coal mine every day to the wharf, and then we can earn 3,000 taels of silver every day according to the daily transportation capacity of 20 million catties of coal."
"After deducting the cost, I can earn more than 2,000 taels a day."
"No, no, after deducting the amount of one billion catties of coal transported to Shimen at a preferential price, we can completely increase the transportation cost to carry the coal purchased by others, and we can earn more at that time."
Xu Sheng's eyes lit up and calculated.
For the most recent time, he has been in charge of the wooden railcars and knows all these details.
Compared with the dart game that doesn't know when it will be profitable, this wooden rail car has started to make money on the first day of official operation, and the positive feedback is too strong.
"That's really profitable, but since it's so profitable, you have to be more careful about the safety of the rail car, if someone sets fire to sabotage, it will be a huge loss."
Lin Ze reminded.
"Don't worry, I will speed up the training of the staff of the dart bureau, and I will usually patrol more in batches with a few brothers."
Xu Sheng nodded solemnly.
Lin Ze's family has a big business and doesn't care about the loss of an industry, but this wooden rail car transportation is all his Xu Sheng's business.
It's hard for people to achieve something in middle age, but they can't go wrong at the beginning.
ββ
After talking about the matter, Lin Ze was ready to leave.
But instead of going through the gate, you left through the tunnel.
Under the shop in the front yard, a tunnel opened, and Lin Ze walked down the stairs.
Soon, a spacious treasury was seen.
Behind the treasury is a heavy iron door, Lin Ze took out the key to open it, and entered the road towards the Lin Mansion, turned around and locked the door, so that next time he could only come from the Lin Mansion and open the door, but the treasury could not open the door to the Lin Mansion again.
Although there was a ventilation opening in the underpass, the air was still a little dull, and Lin Ze soon walked to the end of the tunnel, which was a heavy iron gate.
Take out the key again to open it, and then reverse the lock.
Lin Ze walked out of the underground stairs and came to a secluded courtyard in the courtyard of the Lin Mansion.
Lin Ze turned around and locked the last big iron door leading to the underground.
"This door belongs to the type of anti-gentleman and villain, and the first-class master can destroy the door with some hands and feet, but ordinary people can't pass without a key, and once a master violently passes through this tunnel, the situation of the three iron doors can be found quickly."
"At this time, it can be dealt with depending on the situation."
"At present, the shop of the gold bank, as well as the supporting gold bank shopkeeper and guards, have been completed, and the gold dumping channels in the main world have also been seen, so it is time for the business of this gold bank to be done."
"In the next period of time, prepare a little more silver, and you can open a gold bank."
Lin Ze pondered.
I didn't rush out, I first went back to the main world to process the information.
Only then did he push open the courtyard door and walk out, falling into the field of vision of the servants.
Compared with when he first came to Fengping County, there were only about 20 servants in Lin Ze's family, and now it has increased to more than 50 people, all of whom are innocent people with family bonds.
"Sir, you're back."
Along the way, people greeted each other.
Lin Ze glanced at them slightly, and then he responded, and soon came to the lobby.
I had dinner under the service of several people from Xiangxue, practiced martial arts again, and then slept with a few concubines.
In a good mood today, Lin Ze chose to satisfy the thirst of Xiangxue and the others, which can be regarded as a reward for their conscientious management of the family.
ββ
In the next few days, Lin Ze was rarely quiet.
The preparation of the gold mine in the Overworld, the operation of the delicious forest, and the realization of yellow croaker and matsutake mushrooms are all carried out in an orderly manner with the help of Lin Ze's partners and employees.
On the other side of the world, the coal mine is running steadily, the wooden railcar is also running steadily, and the preparations for the opening of the gold bank are also coming to an end, waiting for the main world to buy enough silver.
In addition to keeping an eye on the progress of these things and occasionally dealing with the interpersonal contacts between the two worlds, Lin Ze spent the rest of his time on the cultivation of martial arts.
With the superior martial arts and the Pulse Washing Qi Strengthening Pill, Lin Ze's cultivation speed took off directly.
Every day, you can clearly feel that your spirit is growing, your body is becoming more and more powerful, the inner breath circulating in the meridians and points is gradually deepening, and even your spiritual power has grown, and the number of times you can use the portable space in a short period of time is constantly increasing.
If you continue to practice at this pace, just like Zhao Cheng commented yesterday, it will take less than a year and a half to cultivate your internal strength to the realm of condensation, and reach the level of a first-class master without using a gun.
But this quiet day did not last forever.
On the seventh day of October, the forest house gradually began to be lively.
Two days later, it will be an auspicious day for Lin Ze to marry his wife, and he will officially marry his fiancΓ©e Li Yunhua at that time.
All kinds of high-quality melons, fruits, vegetables, meat, rice and noodles, as well as many red silk lanterns and other things used to get married, began to be sent into the forest house one after another.
Many subordinates in the entire Lin Mansion were also instructed to start cleaning every corner of the mansion, and Lin Ze's bedroom began to be more elaborately arranged.
On the eighth day of the first lunar month, everything is ready, just wait for the auspicious day to come.
On the ninth day of the first lunar month, early in the morning, Lin Ze rode a high-headed horse, and led a welcoming team composed of relatives, friends, groomsmen, and guards to beat gongs and drums to the county government to welcome the bride home.
Many of Lin Ze's guards, as well as many officials in the county, took action at this time to clean the streets to prevent idle people from colliding with the wedding.
In the county government, preparations have already been made.
As soon as Lin Ze arrived, his father-in-law's family quickly arranged to lift the sedan chair, followed by Shili Red Makeup, and went to Lin Zhai.
Along the way, the greeting team continued to sprinkle copper coins to the surrounding onlookers, heard the auspicious words and handed over a cake candy, so lively and soon arrived in the forest house, there was no accident along the way.
Then the worship began.
Worship heaven and earth.
The second worship of the high hall, in this link, the woman's side is naturally Li He, and the man's side Lin Ze invited Zhao Cheng, a peerless master, to play the role of an elder.
For the sake of the huge benefits brought by Lin Ze, Zhao Cheng readily agreed and gave this face.
After that, there is the third part, the husband and wife worship each other.
Later, the bride was sent to the cave room, and by this time it was almost dusk, and the wedding feast began.
Lin Ze, the groom, began to toast.
The wedding was filmed by a camera secretly arranged by Lin Ze, and he planned to keep it as a souvenir after the editing was completed.
In the future, when there is no longer a need to keep the transaction between the two realms secret, you can also show this wedding video to the parents of the Overworld, so that they can have some sense of participation in seeing their children grow up.
With Lin Ze's current status in Fengping County, no one dared to persuade him to drink excessively, and after a round of toasting, Lin Ze pretended to be exhausted and entered the cave room.
Looking at the bride sitting in front of the happy bed, with a phoenix crown, Lin Ze felt that his heart was beating a little fast.
Lift the hijab and drink a glass of wine.
Looking at the glamorous and moving bride, Lin Ze said dryly: "Lady, let's rest in peace." β
Li Yunhua bowed her head shyly, and responded inaudibly.
The candle flame was extinguished, and it was turned red.
A dreamless night.
The next morning, Li Yunhua had already woken up.
endured the discomfort of being a first-time wife and got up, took the hot towel from the maid and helped Lin Ze wash.
According to the normal process, the first thing at this time should be to visit Lin Ze's parents, but now that Lin Ze's parents are not here, this step is omitted.
Lin Ze let the stubborn Li Yunhua wipe his face for him, and then picked her up horizontally and put her back on the bed.
"Just get your heart, don't toss."
In Li Yunhua's moved eyes, Lin Ze took the chicken soup from the maid on the side and thoughtfully fed his own lady.
