Chapter 40: The Ambition of the Protagonist on the Science and Technology Side
Seeing that Li Fu chose to support Tie Niu's idea without hesitation, Songbo couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Li Fu also reacted, he seemed to be a little too obvious, and he didn't take care of the face of the old man Songbo, so he comforted him again: "Songbo, there is a specialization in the art industry." Since Tie Niu is capable in this area, he will do what he says. The so-called laborers govern people, and laborers govern people. You just have to watch the Iron Bull and don't let him get out of control. ”
"That's right." Song Bo could only nod with a wry smile, and then continued: "According to Tie Niu's idea, he still wants to establish a trading house in cooperation with the royal government to manage Wang Liupulp and his inventions. He said that Dayan's territory is vast, and if you want to open stores all over the country, there is no means of instant communication, and the management cost is too high, and the gains outweigh the losses. It is not as good as the bidding agent, although the unit price profit will be thinned, but the small profit is quick turnover, and the money earned in the end is only a lot more.
I actually think he has a little bit of sense, but I always feel that it was all my own money, and I was a little reluctant to share a part of it, so I never agreed. However, Tie Niu also said that eating alone cannot become fat, and you still have to pull everyone to eat together in order to make the plate bigger. When the time comes, gather the leading forces in various places, bundle each other together, help each other, and form a community of interests, and the Chamber of Commerce will inevitably soar to the sky. As the controller of the Chamber of Commerce, our influence will reach an unprecedented height. ”
Li Fu put his hand on the table, tapped the table lightly and listened attentively.
There is no anti-monopoly law in this world, and a skill is likely to become a family's dependence for its development and survival. So if you have any secret recipes or no learning, they are all hidden and passed down from generation to generation, as a means of survival, I haven't heard of anyone willing to take the initiative to share it with others, but it's no wonder that Songbo is short-sighted and can't accept Tie Niu's idea.
After Songbo finished speaking, Li Fu nodded and said thoughtfully: "I agree with what he said." But why does he think that he is qualified to cooperate with our royal palace? ”
"I asked him this question too, and he said it was up to his brain." Song Bo raised his finger and pointed to his head, and replied: "He said that with the income created by the king flow pulp now, although it can make the palace feast, but for the size of the palace, it is actually dispensable, and it is the icing on the cake. And there are many other inventions in his head, no less than or even more than Wang Liu's pulp. As long as the royal government agrees to cooperate with him, he can be responsible for the operation and management of the chamber of commerce, the bidding and maintenance of agents, and the creation and invention of goods. The money earned and the network of interests all over the country can definitely make the power of the royal palace rise to two or three more levels! ”
Yes, it is indeed a very tempting suggestion, Li Fu has already seen the intention in Songbo's eyes.
If it weren't for the fact that Li Fu was needed to make the decision in the end, Songbo would probably have already made the decision and agreed.
"Entrust the Chamber of Commerce to him to operate, and the palace just needs to take the money?" Li Fu's eyes were lowered, making it impossible to see the brightness in his eyes, and he asked with a chuckle, "How does he want to cooperate?" What are the conditions? ”
"At first, he was whimsical and asked for five or five points, and I scolded him directly. This period of time has dropped to eighty-two, our palace is eight, and he is two. Moreover, our eight is net profit, and his second also includes the operation and production costs of the Chamber of Commerce. The conditions, the first is to get out of slavery, and the second is that the palace needs to send a master to protect his safety, and there is nothing else. "Somber Road.
Directly promised to give eighty percent of the net profit to the backer king's mansion?
If a person agrees to all your requests in a responsive manner, he will accept them all, no matter what the harsh conditions. Either this person is your mom and dad, or he didn't think to keep his promise in the first place.
It seems that this matter is beneficial to the palace and harmless, but Li Fu knows that for a protagonist of the Mandate of Heaven, it is absolutely impossible to be willing to work for others.
Painstakingly run a powerful chamber of commerce, but only take two of the red, and cede the power to someone else?
There must be other calculations and schemes in this!
I am afraid that the concessions made now are just to paralyze the backer king's mansion and cover up greater ambitions.
If he really handed over the Chamber of Commerce to him as Tie Niu said, the palace might indeed be able to receive the money at the beginning and sit back and enjoy the results. But it is estimated that it will not be long before the Chamber of Commerce will be out of the control of the palace and become the private property of Tie Niu.
Tie Niu used the power of the backer Wangfu to make the Chamber of Commerce up, and then kicked it away after using it, when the Chamber of Commerce was already powerful, there were many interests involved, and the palace could not help him, so he could only watch him grow bigger little by little, and even trampled the backer Wangfu under his feet.
After going through the possible plot of the follow-up from his mind, Li Fu asked quietly: "So he doesn't see the rabbit and doesn't scatter the eagle now, if the palace doesn't agree to cooperate and doesn't give him freedom, he is ready to slacken, right?" ”
"I guess that's what it means." Songbo nodded and said: "A few days ago, he was quite positive, when the wine shop opened, he helped plan the event, and took the initiative to make future plans, and gave a lot of good suggestions. But seeing that I had never given him the letter and had no intention of agreeing to his request, I never asked about the liquor store again, nor did I invent anything new... Wrong. ”
Halfway through his words, Songbo remembered something, and said: "It's not that he hasn't invented something new, he made a bracelet that looks like a superb jadeite material, and he calls it colored glass." This bracelet was given to Liuli by him, and according to him, this glass can be mass-produced by him at a very low cost. Little prince, if you master the production method of glass, our palace is equivalent to having an inexhaustible gold mine! ”
Glass?
It seems that this is the bait thrown by the iron bull, waiting for the backer king's mansion to bite the hook.
Li Fu only knew that the glass was made of sand, but he really didn't know exactly how to do it.
"Okay, then promise him!" Li Fu bowed slightly: "Just according to what he said, eighty-two is divided, and let him start to set up a chamber of commerce." However, if you want to get rid of slavery, you have to let him take out two more things... No! Five inventions of the same grade as the king's slurry and glaze, this king can promise to let him be free! ”
The look in Li Fu's eyes was inexplicable.
Iron cattle free? That's impossible!
Waiting for him to establish the Chamber of Commerce, the rules and regulations are clear, and the five new inventions are brought out, it will be his time to die.
"Good!"
Songbo was very happy, I don't know if it was because the palace took a big advantage, or because Tie Niu had a chance to regain his freedom.
Looking at the back of Songbo leaving, Li Fu muttered in a tone that only he could hear: "Is this the terrifying protagonist aura?" Obviously, he said in advance that Tie Niu had a problem, and with Songbo's sophistication and shrewdness, he would still believe him so easily, get close to him, and say good things for him. Songbo, I hope you don't go down the wrong path, this king has always regarded you as a relative..."
