In Jiang Xingchen's series of operations, this alkali mine is the most important. With alkali ore he can produce soap and soap on a large scale, like the current Hua family, looking at the sale is very hot, the actual inventory can not support for a long time, scare and scare the Qian family is no problem, and after a long time, the big honey locusts are still sold. Of course, now that the shopkeeper of the Great Chen Kingdom is finished, the big honey locust will no longer come in from overseas.

In addition, only by large-scale production and cost reduction can soap be promoted more widely, so that more people can use it and make more money. Of course, this requires a process, even if all the alkali ore in this world is given to him, he will not be able to produce so much for the common people to use.

Finally, there is a more important point, with soda ash can glass be produced. Flat glass is not easy to get, but utensils and the like can, and he must build a real room for Xian Ning. The development of the territory has reached a juncture, and the theoretical research of modern science must be put on the agenda.

Of course, this is not a matter of a while, because he doesn't know much, and he feels that the development behind him cannot follow the path of the development of earth science and technology, after all, the vitality of this world plays too big a role.

"It will take at least a month to transport soda ash here from the Great Chen Kingdom, and you have to wait for a while......" Jiang Xingchen sighed, pondering who should be sent over to keep an eye on.

"Second brother, fourth brother, why don't you let Sun Sanqiang go, there's nothing going on in the teahouse, cross talk, storytelling actors have also been merged into Bauhinia Entertainment, and now Sun Sanqiang should be very idle!"

Thinking of this, Jiang Xingchen ordered someone to bring a pen and paper. wrote a letter to Sun Sanqiang and sent it out, asking him to come to Xingchen Collar as much as possible.

His letter was sent out on the front foot, and Grandpa Fu came on the back foot. With a straight face, he put a wad of white paper in front of him.

Now Mei'er has taken over most of Grandpa Fu's work, and he doesn't have to worry about the management of the territory. But he still needs to take care of the finances here, and this thing can't be learned in a while.

"What is this?" Jiang Xingchen asked with a wry smile. Every time he saw Grandpa Fu like this, he had a headache.

"The budget for the next three years!" Grandpa Fu said in a deep voice: "Sir, the underground construction of the territory, the thousand-mile-long road, and the river in the Cursed Land. In the next three years, our budget expenditure will be as high as 2.4 billion ......."

Seeing that Jiang Xingchen silently looked through the budget form and didn't make a sound, Grandpa Fu continued: "Now the bulk of our money is perfume. Tea, soap, honey, spirits and other export products. If the paper mill in the Cursed Lands starts production. Counting the paper....... other incomes include Bauhinia Entertainment, teahouses, advertisements for Xingchen Monthly, Zhaojia Pharmaceutical, the share of major restaurants, and 60% of Dafulai's income...... I made a careful calculation, and it all added up. The income in three years is about 2.2 billion, and there is still a gap of 200 million!"

Took a deep breath. Grandpa Fu continued: "Not to mention, now the cost of our territory is too great, there are more than 8,000 orcs to feed alone, you have more than 1,000 private soldiers, thousands of craftsmen, slaves on the other side of the Cursed Land, and people in charge of planting, there are already more than 12,000 people, and the salary alone is a lot every month. The research institute is also a big money-spending, the number of wild wolves has grown to more than four thousand, they eat more than those orcs, and there are ants......"

Speaking of this, Grandpa Fu paused for a moment, and then said: "If the tourism in our territory has been maintained at the level of last year, it will be enough to pay for these." But now in this case, the gap will get bigger and bigger...... In the summer, it was on fire when it was summer, and the perfume show was on fire, and now the number of tourists has dropped by more than 2,000 people.......Sir, I mean, sell some monster meat!"

Jiang Xingchen smiled and shook his head, the demon beast meat was what he would cultivate as a private soldier in the future, and he didn't want to move it yet.

"Grandpa Fu, after all, this is just a budget, as long as our output goes up, the gap of 200 million is not big!

"I know this!" Grandpa Fu nodded and said, "But now we don't have any money, the perfume exhibition will be 100 million, and the Tianxia commercial house over there in Qiucha will take back 100 million, and 200 million will be given to Han Xiaowu." Later, the money for the return of autumn tea, as well as the money for the sale of perfumes, will have to be given to the Duan family immediately. The money from other income is invested in road construction...... But what should I do to feed so many people now, if it weren't for the Bauhinia tour some time ago that I made a fortune and still had some on hand, I wouldn't be able to arrange it now!"

Jiang Xingchen thought for a while and said, "It's okay, it's early November now, and it's already freezing, and when a snow falls, the wild wolf will be able to make money." ”

"Sir, someone has to come to Xingchen to lead a tour, but if you look at the current situation, who can ...... Winter fishing may be able to attract a batch, but that is the end of December, and there is still a month and a half!"

"Okay, I'll figure it out!" Jiang Xingchen nodded.

"Sir, you have to be more careful, otherwise I really can't arrange it!" Grandpa Fu instructed again, and then left.

After sending Grandpa Fu away, Jiang Xingchen came back and sat on the chair and sighed softly: "Hey, construction is a bottomless pit, and the amount of money earned is not enough to fill it...... How to attract tourists......"

Knock knock, the sound of knocking on the door sounded, and then Zhao Danqing pushed the door and walked in, and said with a smile: "Brother, I heard it just now, and now there are fewer tourists in our Xingchen Collar, and we can't make money." Tian Sanqi and their big restaurants are a little unbearable, and the attendance rate of each meal is less than forty percent......"

Jiang Xingchen looked up at him and asked, "What, do you have any good ideas?"

"Of course, when I first came here, I said that I would build a gambling house, but you just wouldn't listen. If there is such a business, we will definitely be on fire!" Zhao Danqing said loudly.

Jiang Xingchen was helpless, looked at Zhao Danqing and asked, "If people are full, there are gambling venues in the local area, so do you have to spend money to go all the way to play with you?"

Zhao Danqing's face showed disdain, and said: "As long as you send a message, some people will come over, don't forget that we are a place where rich people gather...... And no one can imitate our playing cards......"

"Forget it!" Jiang Xingchen thought for a moment and waved his hand, and said: "Poker production is not simple, and there are still so many things that can't be done, this method is not good...... We still have to start with food, drink, comfort, and entertainment!"

Zhao Danqing's words reminded Jiang Xingchen of Las Vegas in the previous life, which was simply a gold cave. If you wait for the city to get up, maybe you can give it a try.

Zhao Danqing spread his hands and said, "Then I can't help it...... What's that, don't talk about this, when will the roast duck be cashed in......"

"I can cash it out today!" Jiang Xingchen said. There are no chickens in this world, and of course there are no ducks, but in the wild there is a kind of red-headed goose called a red-headed goose, which looks similar to a duck, and he has asked mercenaries to catch it in the past two days.

"Bang!" The door was pushed open, and the old man walked in laughing: "It's better to be in time than to be in time, it seems that I was born to be a blessed person, hahahaha......"

The corners of Zhao Danqing's mouth twitched, and the scolding in his heart, you can't come back a day late. How easy the hell am I, I laughed for three days in a row, and I was touched, and my clothes were torn, in exchange for a meal of roast duck...... Brother Jiang too, you have to delay it until today, why did you go two days earlier, don't you collude to play with me anymore......

Zhao Danqing wanted to cry without tears, but the old man was very happy, and kept patting Jiang Xingchen's shoulder, saying that he was interesting enough and knew that he would wait for him to come back.

But at night, when the old man saw the second brother, the fourth brother, Mo Hongxian, Wanrou, Nier, Catwoman....... these people were there, he couldn't laugh anymore. Zhao Danqing was even more angry and almost burst into foul mouth, there are only two ducks (red-headed geese) in total, so many people, how much can one person eat.

Before the food came up, Zhao Danqing and the old man were already waiting for a big fight.

When Nier saw them like this, she also rolled up her arms and sleeves to grab the food. She knows best that if she doesn't grab it for a while, she will definitely not be able to catch a few pieces of meat.

The eyes of the three of them collided with crackling sparks in mid-air, and the old man and Zhao Danqing didn't let her go at all because Nier was young. When everyone present saw this scene, they could only shake their heads speechlessly.

The roast duck was finally served, the color was golden, it was cut into thin slices, each slice had skin and meat, it was very beautiful, and the aroma was also bursting with gusts of nose, attracting everyone's tongue.

The moment the plate was placed on the table, three pairs of chopsticks stretched out, and in an instant, there was a sword and sword shadow. In just a few moments, most of the roast duck meat on the plate went down. Almost all of them went into the mouths of Zhao Danqing and the old man, and the two of them were like monkeys, their cheeks bulging high, and their mouths were stuffed slowly and chewed hard.

But immediately after, both of them frowned at the same time.

Although Nier also joined the battle, she couldn't compare with the two big foodies at all, and ended up in defeat, not a single piece of meat was sandwiched, and the little girl was so aggrieved that tears rolled in her eyes, and they were about to flow out.

At this time, Jiang Xingchen walked into the room again and brought a large plate.

"Boy, you are dead and ......" The old man saw Jiang Xingchen come in, and muttered to him, but because his mouth was full of meat, he couldn't hear it very clearly.

Jiang Xingchen understood what the old man meant, it was nothing more than saying that he was out of standard, the duck was charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and the taste was good, but it was too light and tasteless.

Zhao Danqing also joined in the fun, muttering Wulu Wulu in his mouth.

Jiang Xingchen smiled, ignored the two of them, and put the plate on the table, which contained a plate of small lotus leaf cakes, a plate of shredded green onions, and a plate of noodle sauce.

Then, Jiang Xingchen picked up a lotus leaf cake, picked up a piece of duck meat, dipped it in the noodle sauce, put it on the cake, and sandwiched some shredded green onions, rolled it twice and handed it to Nier.

"Thank you, sir!" the little girl smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed, her tears were long gone, she reached out and took a mouthful and put it all in her mouth, and then showed an expression of great enjoyment, and a very comfortable sound came out of her little nose.

The old man and Zhao Danqing stopped chewing, looked at Nier in a daze, and felt a black crow flying over their heads shouting a fool in its mouth, leaving a string of small dots...... (To be continued......)
